I poured myself a cup of orange juice as I looked at Christine who sat across from me at the table, having a bite of her toast. I looked at her and realised that she seemed more vibrant today. Was it because of the extra sleep we had yesterday?797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPvO7YF72g
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qQK1OuMMo
I heard footsteps coming into the lounge and I turned to see Zoey approaching the table.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ982EnnFPGJ
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04ZuaGRFuJ
"Morning, girls," she said as she drew out a chair next to mine and sat down with a bright smile on her face.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTN4RTMHISY
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx24t5C4uiT
"Morning," Christine and I answered at the same time.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1fpkor5LP
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjP0Sj8sfPD
"You ladies look very bright this morning," she said as she took a plate and placed it in front of her.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8pKwnFyZs
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMBKLhP4L6
"So do you," said Christine as she took another bite out of her french toast.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ThX17NX5K
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDKjQV6HJo
"I guess the sleep we had really worked wonders," I said.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1juVL07gq
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHA2ShcRKku
"Really?" Zoey asked as she looked at me and held her cheeks with her fingers as though she was massaging them. "Do I look like extra extra pretty?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiflykVmbw
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQy193qBnqz
I smiled at her. "You've always looked pretty, Zoey."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OyHnYG8wc
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3q6E8swTo
"Morning, people," said Mike as both him and Daniel appeared and came straight for the table.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JdjtkOVzZ
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGVHn0s9o1
"Morning," we answered him. I gave Daniel, a bright smile. He smiled back.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mBaVFc6fL
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mhVCyy6zw
"What's with Zoey feeling like she's all pretty?" Mike asked as he took a seat right next to Christine and Daniel sat right next to Zoey.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5R9tmPMJXe
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpByyIwvzw
"Can't you see that I'm glowing?" Zoey asked as she beamed at Mike. "Sam says the extra sleep we had must have helped."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwotbMeJF9
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGzHlCvhAm
"Enough sleep is good for the body," said Daniel as he took the jug of orange juice.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4M4wnmgqH
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyYTrwEWKs
"Are we going to meet with the others today and finish up on the song?" Mike asked as he looked at me.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdsN16ZzUk
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjGq6bZ6Th
"I haven't communicated with either of the two groups yet," I said.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Uw5e5t7Mn
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkjzUxFM0W
"Mmm..., funny," said Zoey as she lifted her toast and looked at it like she was observing it. "I haven't been on my phone since last night."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4Eub0cRnr
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2e7mJsVj8
"Really, that's all you can think about?" Christine asked.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9kRSRipgI
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxNjiQZpfs
"Well..., I guess we were all tired and needed a break. Besides, last night was quite fun."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4PZ86YcQ9
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZuEXMCdZl
"Tell me about it," said Daniel as he held a slice of toast and took a bite.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoVU3E1K1T
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCkIsWno1F
After we went to catch up on sleep yesterday afternoon, we woke up around 7PM and we all met in the lounge where we ended up playing board games with Lee. Before supper, Collins arrived and joined in on the fun and we told him about our progress on the new song. After supper, we all sat down to watch the Korean drama series, "Boys Over Flowers." We went to bed an hour early before our usual bedtime.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrpVeBL0oy
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKyZA2KlVz
"We should have more sleeping hours, don't you think?" Mike asked.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqK4ljkJQE
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cdUPHMFDD
"With what we are working on right now, I doubt it," I said. "Maybe after we finally head back home."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcHdTNpLbo
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAGfIKildn
"This album is going to kill us," said Zoey as she leaned her head back and looked up at the ceiling in frustration.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedQxjA20kW
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwRrxpj7Dd
"You have to check up on these guys and ask if we're going to meet," said Christine as she looked at me.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiWUxJr6zq
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdS4HeW7jC
"After breakfast," I said. I took a sip of my juice.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJKpCFRFZw
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqC6yWTq22
As we continued to have our breakfast and talked about the snakes and ladders game we had yesterday, Lee and Collins came into the lounge. Lee was taking down something on her tablet while Collins talked to her, almost like he was giving her instructions. I couldn't hear what he was saying because he talked in a low tone and Zoey at the same time was the one talking at the table.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8w5laWkLZe
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyl947Vkhw
"All I am saying is," she said, "if Daniel wasn't so lucky, I would have won that game."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAH69u8BBry
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWc4mAdpVbg
"Too bad you got eaten by the snake towards the end," said Daniel as he smiled at Zoey.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIgYAX7Hjh
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTKTrlqXRG
"Sometimes I think you cheat."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82yRxJZAJB
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhvpMFKbhB
"Cheating in snakes and ladders is almost impossible," said Christine as I saw her shrug her shoulders. "That's if you have the super power to row the dice to the number that's most suitable."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxCJBaqcAu
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Tog9mzHsR
"Morning," said Collins as he and Lee came towards us. "I see Zoey still hasn't gotten over that snakes and ladders game."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0Q5qDMgGg
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAPeLeq99E
Zoey looked down at her empty plate, not daring to look up at Collins. "Not really," she said.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxmrvYLpPD
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bpvo5Bt72
"Will all of BTW be meeting today to continue working on the song?" Collins asked as he looked at me.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDhlobzN79
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2fKvnqElF
"I have to communicate with them and see if it's possible," I answered.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdy8MaR2Yiu
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMR05uEE1q
"Well, I sure hope so. I told Yang Hyun-suk that you already started. He wants to hear it tomorrow, so I really hope you do make progress."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoHz8GvmCX
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7wXCMp6dj
"I better go give them a call, then."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgsuAGO1kY
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYveGVUteO5
I drew my chair back and left the table. I later found myself back in the room I shared with Zoey. I went straight for my phone that was beside the bed lamp. It felt like it had stayed there for a very long time because I barely touched it last night.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzob5Rq6Y2V
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDLehZYONy
I checked my lock screen and found no messages whatsoever. Maybe its because I hadn't turned the wifi on on my phone. After I unlocked it and switched on the wifi, notifications came flooding in almost at the same time most of them from social networks like Instagram and Twitter. I ignored them all as I went on my WhatsApp to check if there were any messages on the BTW chat group. But nothing.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhgKuOC7F8
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Da9cnCbMf
"Strange," I muttered to myself as I sat on my bed. I decided to leave a message, but that wasn't going to be enough.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaGyEkpAj3
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1v4udIlRFt
I decided to make a call to one of the BlackPink members. Jennie was the first member on my contact list so I called her.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCganH3PiX
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2j9oRUI7GV
I put my phone to my ear. Her phone rang but she wasn't picking up. I waited until the voicemail came up and I cut the call right away. Maybe she was still asleep or she wasn't so close to the phone. I called again and still her phone went straight to voicemail.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4667VIuLeu
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8Fb4obV0I
I called Jisoo next, and just like Jennie's phone, it went straight to voicemail. Something didn't feel right. Why were they both not answering their phones?797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oxws6nAlL
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasSpxsrXvk
I went on ahead to call Seunghoon and this time, I prayed that his phone wasn't going to act like the others. Upon the third ring, he answered.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGdv62n5kG
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMOgg6wM2w
"Hello?" Seunghoon answered. He sounded sleepy.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZjc9CFhil
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqS7DjJ9lu
"Seunghoon? Hey, are you still asleep?" I asked.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmNe3rhxxA
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJbZz1W3Ji
"Sam?" he sounded surprised and more awake. "Oh, I didn't notice it was you."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Z7tlUlERv
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3VCrQfBNS
"Are you guys coming to meet us here at the hotel? We have a song to work on, remember?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgjVyBu4hD
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkGdIZbepp
"Oh, oh, ya, we do..., ummm, eish.....," I heard him mutter something in Korean. "You said we can meet either today or tomorrow, right?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmm9AgNisDT
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbapB9v6hE
"Umm...," I raised an eyebrow. Something was definitely not right at the moment. "Yes, I did. That's why I called to see if you guys are up it."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4S1Jo8Pap1
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCt3tUcmMme
"Oh, umm, let me ask if these guys are up for it." I heard movement, like someone was pushing away the sheets to try and get out of bed. "I'll call you right back."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA623hZFI0R
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TBLqLMjl9
"Ya, sure."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzq12sxXqKj
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsUusU61Uh
Seunghoon cut the call and I couldn't help but wonder. Maybe the others weren't up for meeting today. It was for the best to have it cancelled.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AYISwApzo
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbCfv3OAx7
The door to the room flew open and Zoey came in.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFscft8ifHY
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsc8dLV7e9M
"Anything?" Zoey asked.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGu2fP8R40
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfr97dQMmMz
"Couldn't reach Jennie or Jisoo," I answered. "But I did reach Seunghoon and he will get back to me as soon as he talks to the others."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HzrzxZLlJ
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4k1yIkjNw
"Okay, well, we can wait."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQmAPAKGDu
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsP95oMIhcN
"Maybe we should cancel and meet tomorrow. Seunghoon was still asleep when I called."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtqqXKuzXg
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAhP0LV7Vk
"We could, but Yang Hyun-suk wants to hear the song tomorrow."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPs102kCZK
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SgQCipj1e
"We can tell Collins to tell him that he will have to wait a little longer."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3n8hkV8MX
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvNJEnnemc
"Geez, this is Yang Hyun-suk we're talking about. He wouldn't like taking orders from a missy like you."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1Rll89PlM
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxey3fAHyf2
I shrugged my shoulders. "It's just a suggestion, not an order."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefFBjXl7uh
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxcqwyaZ2W
"Ooh, you know what I mean," she said irritatingly.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbBIjY3hjT
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5JQwS1qsp
"We can't work on the song without them."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMqoA7ZKv1
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfyn91ICvI
"True, but you started to work on the song way before we all met yesterday. You're a good songwriter after all."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2BkhSNFyO
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQHjnsyGm4
"I hope we won't have to write the songs of the entire album ourselves. We will need to bring out some songwriters. We don't really have much time."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgeJqKtGyX
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxf0jftiZU
"Huh, funny. Collins was talking about it with Lee just now. You two seem to think alike."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHugq80m3l
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwJhcqM1FK
"Yay, we will be working on one song," I said with less enthusiasm.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LwOunbDMO
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwbv6MOJGM
"Then get your guitar and notebook."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ciMxBSDSB
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyYTZTiIRB
"May you help me with my guitar?" I asked. "It's in the closet."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbK46djJ33c
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOzXwASu39
"Really? Why do I get to carry the heavy stuff for you?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tk4GfRDdD
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZn0up7ueOM
"I never let you carry any of my heavy stuff. And besides, the guitar isn't so heavy."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡws6epsHrRL
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWiO8r3OS5
"Whatever," Zoey rolled her eyes at me as she went to the closet to get it. I stretched out over my bed to get my notebook in one of the drawers on the other side of the bed.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmZ0OXwbnp
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIA4Zng9108
Zoey and I soon left the room, Zoey with my guitar and me, with my phone and notebook. I expected Seunghoon to have called back by now but he hadn't. Strange.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchiQX7xBbc
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHE9lp2aec8
"Aah, it's good to see that you are much more serious than I thought about the song," said Collins as we entered the lounge.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiD6GytwxE
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMirCWQiCD
"Of course we are," said Zoey as she smiled at Collins seated in the lounge. My brothers and Christine weren't by the dining table.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zYGUby6yV
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVZ6Z9sY9C
"And what about the others?" Lee asked. She was standing right in front of us with the tablet still in her hands. "Are they going to make it?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhq5MFo7da
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzCSy2Mt8Z
"Am yet to receive a reply," I answered.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuLQbmG7p3
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTex0oW74f
"I hope all goes to plan," said Collins as he stood up. "Yang Hyun-suk is really looking forward to hearing the song."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGT4VHrY8rU
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShTIA4sBlx
I gulped. Something told me it was best if the managers heard the song another day.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkdasn5qoJ
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgvXtFFLNj
"I actually think we need a little more time," I said to Collins.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSuQ7sIu73
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7MUwX2cH6
"Really?" he raised his eyebrow at me.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3x2qXg3yD9
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpz6pihC8IR
I felt Zoey look at me. She knew what I was doing. I had no other choice but to stall.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXlEcE4cSk
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aZmhi2DpA
"Yes, really," I answered.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JOhNXJr8W
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zDT3EySxB
"Whatever reason you have, fine. But you will have to finish the song because tomorrow we will meet other songwriters and composers for the album. But we will still need that song from you."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YCuaRCUsx
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kpxHSAhHa
I nodded my head. "It will be a great song, trust me."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfiCZgCO1Q
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbJZYk9SE6
Collins smiled at Zoey and I, then left the lounge heading for the elevator. It looked like he was going out as always.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pqQa1QTnP
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tCIgrHwPR
"Well, that went well," said Zoey after we were sure that Collins had gone.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84iKLhGIP8
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ636xs9S2mG
"What went well?" Lee asked.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxn6RXeF9wl
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEMs0Uflvo
"Nothing, nothing," said Zoey as she went ahead to put the guitar on the nearest couch and smiled at Lee.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jl1XI2Vjs
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGiA9zHrnQ
I knew Lee was going to stare at me to get an answer, so, I avoided her gaze by looking at my phone. Still nothing from Seunghoon. I debated on whether to give him another call.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJ0Rns2XBv
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSAFBDo0jo
I heard one of the doors open and shut in the hall followed by Christine's voice singing to a song by Maroon 5: "She will be loved" until she entered the lounge.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6iw4M5y5G
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOFqL49Bx3
"Any news from the others yet?" she asked as she stood beside me.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyN9txOKlk
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGFacPiHs7
I shook my head. "I can't reach BlackPink and Seunghoon said he would inform me soon if he and the rest are going to make it."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mu3T44NFJ
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJybter7PLO
"Bummer," she said as she went over to sit on the couch. Zoey soon joined her.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75m9YVWilz
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDm2kzEeX6s
"Now I see why you don't want the managers hearing the song tomorrow," said Lee. "You're not sure if these guys are going to show."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMpkdak6Si
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVB7fIa1ARY
"I thought we agreed that we were all going to rest and then meet up," said Christine.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxoW2XiJUQ
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFn7kKSAxE
"The sad part was I suggested we meet either today or tomorrow," I said.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCujy9p5CG
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUK9hnPduw
"I think I was the one who suggested that," said Lee as she winced.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1TfhTUGT5
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0G40hp15Kk
"Judging by Sam's phone that should have rang minutes ago, we're likely to meet tomorrow," said Zoey.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfA1RiSVZ7s
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgk7E4F6eO
She was right. I looked at my phone and I felt like I should have just left it behind in my room. Seunghoon might call to tell me that they weren't going to make it. Jisoo or Jennie would find my missed calls and call me back to say the same thing.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtsVrQ6Ez8
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSW3aKN2bK
"Ya, you're right," I said as I slumped my shoulders and lowered my phone. I sighed.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1saR5cSh1
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEpuWWGmAH
"If these guys are taking a day off, don't you think we should as well?" Zoey asked.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGFIUPXe7v
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCD7hZtnFLC
"No!" Christine, Lee and I said at the same time.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQff9u7xCt
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnICWf3yYjD
Zoey's face was one filled with disappointment. "I really wanted to go shopping."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9nPm6m882
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GfLr60F7L
"If they won't come, we will work on the song ourselves," I said. "I'll just text them-"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKB4l6Bicg
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21f32aWQvO
The phone beeps in my hand. I looked at it and I found a message from Seunghoon. I read the message saying that they won't be able to make it. I texted back and told him we would meet tomorrow.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36SKo02Trv
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6SWb9JYrE
After pressing the send button, Lee asked, "was that Seunghoon?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQvIEf5Vrc
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdnAy3vwJO
"Yep, and he said they aren't going to make it."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8PhCCQ7Z0
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoG1TNN3Cal
"Well, you saw this coming," said Zoey.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDCQpdKatt
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMtiG3zgwb
"And you did well to stall the managers," said Lee. "That will give you some breathing space."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyUY0WJL7Q
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPxO3rOSJo
"We better start working on the song," I said as I went over to the couch where my guitar lay and lifted it to create space to sit. "Where are Mike and Daniel?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn95goIPTeP
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIl4iqrURAa
"I can go call them, they are in their room," said Lee.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZASYUF7EdT
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMlC5X29an
She didn't even have to leave the lounge as Mike and Daniel soon appeared.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXuYWEHuD6
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUWxHftg66
"We're working on the song already?" Daniel asked. "Aren't we waiting for the others?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOJfQoi317
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBasGavPkz
"They won't make it today," said Zoey as I sat down.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJyAWQcxUm
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4VE7iU05w
"Mmm..., how come?" Mike asked, sounding puzzled.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOo24jEdRE
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3Rv4rTkgD
"They wouldn't say, just that they can't make it, at least that's what Seunghoon told me on behalf of WINNER," I said. "I'm yet to hear from BlackPink."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBbfDfQ0iR
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwytfg7ilpR
"Bummer," said Daniel as he came to sit right beside me.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNCleDro1H
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYjznCaZfo
"Not to worry, we can still make progress without them. Shall we begin?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzCAWsjNyv
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKptbulN43a
Mike sat opposite Daniel and I. We first did a recap of the song and continued working on the first verse since that was where we left off. Without the others it was kind of difficult since Mino and Seungyoon came up with great lyrics for the first verse. We had to go with the flow though and it didn't seem so bad.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJuYmfMPlT

We were still on the first verse, checking out sentences and debating whether one word sounded better than the other when my phone rang. It laid on the armrest of the couch. I checked who was calling and rolled my eyes.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLqqjW7dR1
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xW9iNM0J3
"Who's calling, Sam?" Daniel asked.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49aOEIJmwc
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TBbFqZ2fP
"I'll tell you," said Zoey, "it's G-Dragon. If it's not, then it's probably someone who's just as annoying as he is."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUoIQtOE2l
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYSPo5cfCg
"It's him, alright," I said as I took the phone and picked up the call. "Hey, GD."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTPbWNDgbV
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVI6tFQRUvG
"Hi, I'm in the elevator right now coming to your floor. I'll be there in like 30 seconds."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrws6NML3ok
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmK0BKFIE5
"Wait, you're....," the line went dead. I stared at the phone.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGXrYrICiV
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdRSIz2K5Y
"What is it?" Christine asked.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeFhkI9uj2
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuChC4HMls
We heard the sound of the elevator doors on our floor announcing the arrival of our visitor.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBrNMoVULC
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7GwlsWTxA
"He's here," I said.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdPOC11EZg
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHfmKw4uhg
Lee who sat at the dining table, working, asked, "how come we were never informed at the reception of his arrival?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLlyRyiw11
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFoHMCuUPB
"It's because I told them not to," came G-Dragon as he appeared in the lounge.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FiOvUU3MC
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8ZEOeGMCk
We turned to look at him. Somehow, I wasn't surprised that he was here.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuMsA2Vcfc
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5WSTfLGZr
"Hello, everyone," he greeted as he came to where the five of us, sat.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnff48am99G
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CSLyiVUjr
Four of us, including Lee, replied to his greeting except Zoey who said, "how come you're here?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWvxK6ineo
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXee8feWnAh
"What's wrong with me being here?" he asked as he shrugged his shoulders.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHm0xzn48w
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAs2iabae6W
"For someone who went partying last night, you seem pretty sober."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilRcHWhWpK
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnxqdPONg0
"Oh.., how did the party go anyway?" Christine asked.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRpNgTtHqM
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIB1qn3gR4
"It was great," he said with a happy grin.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQHnWcxazd
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdcN9cjwLq
"Zoey has a point, though," said Mike. "For someone who had a great time at the party, you seem pretty sober and...," he snapped his fingers as he tried to think of a word.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FhUTORhOK
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTYvWcYPud
"Normal?" Daniel suggested. Though he was only joking.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvF0JVk565L
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxcCzZTNR8
"Wait, you think I'm not normal?" G-Dragon asked. He almost looked offended.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OgCWA59bU
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahaemuw0uW
"Nah, that's not the word, Daniel," said Mike. "It doesn't matter anyway."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1C1tNGTItE
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6lEGlMxhW
I looked over at Mike and he had a small smirk on his face that was almost unnoticeable to everyone else. I found Daniel also staring at his brother and then he looked at me. The two of us knew he meant what Daniel said.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGphDLwWvS
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nuE5VA5KS
"We had a blast yesterday," said G-Dragon as he went over to join Mike on the couch. "I thought you checked the photos on Instagram."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxapnmWXA5
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTH3PPAVLN8
"Did you just say 'we?'" I asked as I raised my eyebrow at him.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeAviIJsZw
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVJNK5Z8QR
"What?" he asked as if he hadn't heard my question. I felt like he did.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqtIF6J6Rv
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn89hWfZmDs
"You said 'we.' Who else were you with?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAqGJLazw6
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPOw6cbmJY
"Oh.., just friends, very close..., very good friends," he answered as he nodded his head.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKJgV6rjI2
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5u97CIIJJk
"Okay," I said as I slowly nodded back. "I'm glad you had fun."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DSLhaLvTf
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2YcCIzt16
"You guys should have come. It was amazing."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmxH0s1q5O
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgd79p6Bdif
"Too late for that now, isn't it?" Christine asked.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMzH6u5UiK
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurqU95kZKQ
"Yep, too late. But you could still see the pics of how much fun we had."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePr2IJgYJJ
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06E8giukgM
"I bet there was plenty of booze too," said Zoey.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqiUrpCL6I
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylAXU54S0R
"Plenty," said G-Dragon with a smile.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoxKD40mvv
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡux4Vfqf5ok
I couldn't help but feel something strange with what G-Dragon said a few sentences ago. Maybe I was just imagining things. Any who....797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoxugB5xbc
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaLop2cH6W
"We can check the pics later," I said. "We have a song to write."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNq6SOSKZ1j
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyq12i3zkM
"The others aren't here yet?" G-Dragon asked. "How can you work on the song without them?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMxwsWvXGw
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSxbJOTu5w
"Seunghoon called to tell me they weren't going to make it. I haven't heard anything from BlackPink but I doubt they will come, so I called off the meeting and we are working on it instead."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxOjOzsmvm
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBb2rKtk0k
"Oh. I think that's fair considering that they must be tired from the party."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRB6hKA0PBN
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xkDBQkd6e
I looked at G-Dragon, and so did the rest of the Toxins.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TqG3H0yhQ
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnVnAy3cfd
"They were with you at the party?" Daniel asked.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSMCXLMerh
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGaNaE3Liy
"Huh....?" G-Dragon now looked like the confused one. "I thought you knew."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9E0REQZsH
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlScjVu1oo
"How would we know when we were resting yesterday and we were completely off social media?" Christine asked.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJRvVfjIRr
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjKFqdYTzE
G-Dragon shrugged his shoulders. He left our floor early yesterday, so he had no idea that we all agreed to rest and continue working on the song later. Can't blame him for that.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYpANdyuKi
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnRaxuuicR
"You dragged them to the party, didn't you?" Zoey asked as she pointed a finger at him. "You're such a manipulator!"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieXcyCwz0W
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlejueBif9
"I didn't convince them, I swear," he said as he raised his hands in surrender. But then he looked at me and lowered them. "Okay..., maybe a little."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3nWuzqXBT
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp37VNvGtWF
"I knew it!" Zoey said with a look on her face.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfd4urzK6B
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5FP6RYrZ3
"But ninety percent of the whole convincing thing was on the other guy."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGMQfaThtC
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWoEOGeu8r
"The other guy?" Mike asked as he raised his eyebrows.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyWE33HzWQ
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxH2nmfm6n7
"Who's the other guy?" Christine asked.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAAI1UQc5B
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUyjECqmYR
I knew there was something fishy about G-Dragon's earlier statements. He didn't just go and party with "just" close friends.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPNfeSA9pV
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6iz1ZwJRa
"Tell us," Zoey demanded when G-Dragon didn't speak.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCYiSuePV3
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQIcm8bmfo
We looked at him as he also stared back at each one of us. The look in his eyes made me realise that he didn't want to talk for fear of what might happen next.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0zdgpPsgj
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1EVKCmUNB
"Looks like you lost your tongue, GD," said Daniel. "Please tell us who you were with. I don't think it's that much of a big deal."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxH3jJGYyQ
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJ7wEXrUF0
G-Dragon squeezed his eyes shut in fright. And just like that, we knew it was a big deal.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn90GC7wIKs
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGC0FsvnJ1
"Goodness, just tell us, GD," I said. "We have a song to work on and you're just wasting our time."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdxEYUl2D9
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrN1q7hOgb
"It was a mistake coming here," said G-Dragon as he nervously stood up from the couch. "I better get going. Sorry for disturbing you."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBOhPzJkBb
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMB905PVobm
All five of us stood up and surrounded him. It was five against one and he knew he couldn't stand a chance. We came closer, making it tight for him to leave.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwoVMOVcQ8
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ggxx3e9Gb
"GD, sit down, please," I instructed him and he did.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqIDlyjgOV
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHDA0wfiEK
"Now," said Zoey as she cracked her knuckles. "You're going to answer our questions. You don't want to receive these babies," she gestured to her fists, "on your face."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKBRQfZ3eI
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN23vh3vQDL
"Okay, okay," G-Dragon surrendered. "I'll tell you."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLoxXaX3F8
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4XveHYUQn
"First question," said Christine with her arms folded. "Who were you with downstairs when you left our floor yesterday?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh84ubcbmbV
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZt5TenESiw
G-Dragon gulped as he looked at us. "You won't like the answer I am about to give you. You will kill me before I even leave this place."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aChChJQ32
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1f4PxSKk9u
"We will make sure to bury you in a lovely place, promise," said Mike. "Now, spill."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxmS0bKFW5
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3HAK9ocRQ
G-Dragon sat upright and cleared his throat. "When I came out of the elevator, I saw..., I saw this guy. He recognised me immediately and said he was a big fan..., and so....., we talked for a while. We got along well...., and then that's when the others came..."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvlKRMxzSn
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0NlluPYmt
"GD, we don't want to hear how you all met," I said, "we want a name. Who is the guy?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3F3XmNnzV
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIggtayl2J
"It's..., it's..., Johnny," said G-Dragon. He immediately looked down at the floor.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDEtwL0FzM
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymUZXNnlV3
"Johnny Jerkins!" the five of us said at the same time.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nMDZkmAUQ
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXziKlLfNmK
"Yes," G-Dragon as he slowly nodded his head, still facing downwards.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCLri52cMJ
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLubk3SQOau
Zoey fell onto the couch next to G-Dragon like she was about to pass out, her hand on her forehead.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxzBtEJ15r
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKATrDfVxU
"I can't believe it" she said.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sakYXnXhv
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡam9KnPfKqI
"That explains everything," I said, as I looked at a certain part of the wall above the couch, my mind far off.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxP63RPfYu
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQuxwvqbcAK
"No wonder they couldn't make it," said Daniel.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrLQPEMmlI
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1L2wuyBWfB
"They didn't just go to the party, they were hanging out with Johnny," said Mike.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89PXNFGBFF
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdlhnhJKvn
"Ya...., you won't like what I am about to show you," said Lee behind us.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrwT0DJ8sG
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxia2tVfqr
We all turned to look at Lee as she approached with a tablet in her hands. She went to sit on the couch I had been sitting on with Daniel. I went to sit next to her, Christine on her other side. Mike and Daniel went over to stand at the back of the couch so as to see more clearly on the tablet.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgrfOQoEMr
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4j9ml1039
She was on Instagram and she had gone on one of G-Dragon's fan pages. One of the first photos we saw of last night was a picture of him and Johnny staring at the camera and smiling. They had hands over each other's shoulders like they were best buddies.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63MTx89dap
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzF34hq9xR
It was definitely Johnny Jerkins alright. His white blonde hair cropped to the sides and a strand of it falling above his right blue eye. He was almost G-Dragon's height and he had on a white shirt and brown khaki shorts. I noticed their surrounding and I couldn't help but ask:797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe86U3jo15K
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vc0GLnmeI
"You guys had a party on a boat?" I looked at G-Dragon.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqb50Aibzq
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7w2zZJ0ygs
"What! A cruise party!" Zoey yelled as she sat up quickly. She looked like she had woken from her slumber as she went to stand alongside my two brothers.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4g4KPCR7dw
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lwMTf2hqd
Lee continued to scroll down the page and more pictures came up. This time, there were some of BlackPink and WINNER having a good time with Johnny and G-Dragon. There were other pictures with fans who wanted to take pics with the K-Pop superstars.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlB9jhJIJC9
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6rkM7qbqW
"You guys had such a good time," said Zoey. "I wish I came."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEuj5PfZuy
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePGvkh1WPu
"You see, you guys should have tagged along," said G-Dragon.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWFsfgnt2b
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0rIfAlJZw
"And hang out with Johnny? Heck no!" Zoey detested.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcI9IMWXOi
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NXrRMwudZ
"He seems pretty cool."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYLmMEE8Du
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6hE9od14i
"That's because you only just met him," said Daniel.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXQ8VEVEHs
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡks5530FkEj
"You won't be hanging out with him more often, will you?" Christine asked.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUl2HBokEzp
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5U4Pe5YFm
"Nah," G-Dragon denied. "I guess all that was just a one time thing."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Jj9mOetbS
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6Iis6aoe1
"That's what they all say," said Zoey. I imagined her rolling her eyes when she said that.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3NobanBZd
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJ7S3jyZTO
"And let's not forget, he's in this hotel," I said. "Avoiding him will be tricky."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cd1TTmbJ4
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RWqXtPwNj
"Don't you think maybe you guys are taking this thing a little too far?" G-Dragon asked.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJM2EnKUyJ
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuFP4Tz901
"What thing?" Christine asked. Her eyes were still fixed on the tablet as Lee continued to scroll.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3u1UpwM5ZJ
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjVuHV4PBK
"This 'Johnny' thing?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOy7GPwHCb
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLQsHbjBHd
I looked up from the tablet at G-Dragon and I knew I wasn't the only one.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjA9FanhC61
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDYygcsGDh
"Why would we?" I asked.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNFA9P5GTN
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96fCDhVxPP
"You talk about him as if he's your worst enemy."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3d3oIjJxa5
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHvd6TLRDk
"Look, we don't hate people, well, maybe some," said Mike. "It's just that some people aren't worth hanging out with."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexQg6eqXcp
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGI1ZafUAV
"Because of his actions back at school? Please, that was a long time ago."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhopHcufFs
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uHJrW0H6B
"You're right," said Zoey. "It was a long time ago, but we would rather keep our distance. Some people are just toxic, you know?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd90hVsFMpZ
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumxhInrkj0
"How ironic," said G-Dragon as he stood up from the couch.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJko1p9iBB
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOA3IERZklV
"Leaving already?" Lee asked.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ay8LTGcQ4
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1g5ye8fTW
"Ya, I really should. Just came to check up on the progress with the song."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccOxp8HJK9
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEt7bgh1add
G-Dragon didn't seem like himself. I looked at him and this time I didn't give him a criticising look like I always do. I could tell he was upset if not sad.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNVvfva6nu
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpJlr257oW
"I'll escort you to the elevator," I said as I stood up from the couch.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecCAGPoJup
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLA3vOhy3G
"Ok," he said and he turned to address the others, "I'll see you guys later."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6Apmxl4xZ
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbckt5TSA81
"Bye, GD," the rest replied at the same time. Their tone sounded low almost as if they didn't want to upset him any further.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRAZPZt9o7
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sXUQyg9pJ
G-Dragon made his way out of the lounge and I was right behind him.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZvFMNcDHH
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqe63QdB9rt
"Well, you seem upset," I said to him when we were in the hall.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKop96coPd
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ646O8yHLEx
"No, I'm not," he said as he shrugged his shoulders.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJv2PgXj1Ej
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8lUx05jA4
I held his shoulder and he stopped walking, his back still facing me.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlFYy1wDGI
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Y6Pmmmsj1
"I know when you're upset," I said as I dropped my hand. "I think the others know too."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKrEEBGwhR
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMC0Q2ufrMD
He turned around to look at me. "I don't get you guys at all," he said.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxhAisDz5M
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXvkKwLAz5
"What do you mean?" I folded my arms.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdOOxn88Vn
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCU4Vtu2jYx
"I mean, you guys are the nicest and coolest people I have ever met and I never thought you would be so spiteful about someone. You weren't all like this when you were dealing with Jehan...., well, maybe Zoey, but even she wasn't so extreme."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQt5XgacJS
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgVhaWbay5
"We aren't perfect, you know? We have our emotions too, whether good or bad."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23AxW35kGv
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmh1ySaHz0R
"But why hate on Johnny so much?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7cgTYjixL
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjiTIoTH1W
I shook my head. "We don't hate him. We do hate what he did to us in the past, but we don't actually hate him."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhbKjXI4K1
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2u1FmHKpu
"Really?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoZ7vkTHdY
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDYZlNqwmU
"If we really did, we would have called him worse names than 'jerk' now, wouldn't we?"797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWnvIk9hO4
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83CJrG1Cbr
G-Dragon bit his lip and he didn't have to admit I was right. "Then why can't you come to peace with him?" he asked. "You don't even want to cross paths with him, like ever."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLVgh6nblZ
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoiqrLaKbU
I sighed as I dropped my arms. "Some people aren't worth mingling around with, Jiyong."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSm1EQDdi6k
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQZ40fLEwk
"Is there something you aren't telling me?" He raised his eyebrow at me and took a step closer.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UFTqG0nUj
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5BFaFz5WL
I shrugged my shoulders. "Kind of," I answered. "You're yet to know everything in due time."797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UmAxNlQrg
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtHyxMF7kk
G-Dragon slowly nodded his head. I could tell that he understood and is willing to wait. But for how long is the million dollar question.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkw3ZtaqORB
797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnB6IZy12R

For a moment, we didn't say a thing as Lee stood up from the couch, taking the tablet with her back to the dining table. The others who stood went to take their seats. For a moment, some of us sat, slumped on the couch.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zHsYhM816

"Aren't you guys going to continue working on the song?" Lee asked at the dining area. We had been quiet for what felt like forever.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt74LCEwAd6

The five of us all looked at each other. It was surprising we wanted something sweet to boost our spirits. We needed some fresh air too. We all turned to look at Lee who sighed. She needed a doughnut too.797Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBqIGxQV6X
