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?756Please respect copyright.PENANAe3Lcyc3OO5
756Please respect copyright.PENANAf6UlLhXU2z
I heard footsteps coming into the lounge and I turned to see Zoey approaching the table.756Please respect copyright.PENANAeRQZ0jwlW0
756Please respect copyright.PENANAyCsPD7W0yV
"Morning, girls," she said as she drew out a chair next to mine and sat down with a bright smile on her face.756Please respect copyright.PENANAmKHi1NJza2
756Please respect copyright.PENANA5Iyie7IVFL
"Morning," Christine and I answered at the same time.756Please respect copyright.PENANA4THZMtok5s
756Please respect copyright.PENANAKAesSdi8SU
"You ladies look very bright this morning," she said as she took a plate and placed it in front of her.756Please respect copyright.PENANANDxYlfwVx7
756Please respect copyright.PENANAkwoujaCpM9
"So do you," said Christine as she took another bite out of her french toast.756Please respect copyright.PENANACWLGtuh022
756Please respect copyright.PENANACOkzNp1nzb
"I guess the sleep we had really worked wonders," I said.756Please respect copyright.PENANAp2bUwGa1jG
756Please respect copyright.PENANArHpHoqxFnx
"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?"756Please respect copyright.PENANANvpOoMV8AZ
756Please respect copyright.PENANAAwlLrsv4jt
I smiled at her. "You've always looked pretty, Zoey."756Please respect copyright.PENANAXnl4xcuW2d
756Please respect copyright.PENANAxBcMtj5Ec2
"Morning, people," said Mike as both him and Daniel appeared and came straight for the table.756Please respect copyright.PENANAGtqbS4lUYt
756Please respect copyright.PENANAQlwZa58vhl
"Morning," we answered him. I gave Daniel, a bright smile. He smiled back.756Please respect copyright.PENANAzlcKU5Av3M
756Please respect copyright.PENANAKjm8OEIioe
"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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAYFCG4Ov3Ux
756Please respect copyright.PENANAeWHU2NfA2Q
"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."756Please respect copyright.PENANAtvLc2jIHPm
756Please respect copyright.PENANAF92uqxqa0d
"Enough sleep is good for the body," said Daniel as he took the jug of orange juice.756Please respect copyright.PENANAXCOCO0eNdR
756Please respect copyright.PENANADydoMJot9i
"Are we going to meet with the others today and finish up on the song?" Mike asked as he looked at me.756Please respect copyright.PENANAgp1JmZj75A
756Please respect copyright.PENANAfg7SwAXuxl
"I haven't communicated with either of the two groups yet," I said.756Please respect copyright.PENANAUzoZkMRkgt
756Please respect copyright.PENANAEM2D2Ecc7C
"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."756Please respect copyright.PENANADb7yKQ7bUt
756Please respect copyright.PENANAJD5JsPo3pp
"Really, that's all you can think about?" Christine asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAUIcoTR0r9R
756Please respect copyright.PENANA7bymUZmCr0
"Well..., I guess we were all tired and needed a break. Besides, last night was quite fun."756Please respect copyright.PENANAUoZ4VzsLP6
756Please respect copyright.PENANACiC1p5qr5X
"Tell me about it," said Daniel as he held a slice of toast and took a bite.756Please respect copyright.PENANAbVPLygzBNu
756Please respect copyright.PENANArLsV1f2UJ5
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAQnlij6FZ5i
756Please respect copyright.PENANAuxGceVRYV8
"We should have more sleeping hours, don't you think?" Mike asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAPIdy95ns2G
756Please respect copyright.PENANAnx3XZFENYE
"With what we are working on right now, I doubt it," I said. "Maybe after we finally head back home."756Please respect copyright.PENANAxZ3VCijiA2
756Please respect copyright.PENANAFSpRxiYNPh
"This album is going to kill us," said Zoey as she leaned her head back and looked up at the ceiling in frustration.756Please respect copyright.PENANARjqofH7oxr
756Please respect copyright.PENANABs9veqXOKm
"You have to check up on these guys and ask if we're going to meet," said Christine as she looked at me.756Please respect copyright.PENANA5IDgNWdj9J
756Please respect copyright.PENANAKMaBfdXMNJ
"After breakfast," I said. I took a sip of my juice.756Please respect copyright.PENANAhI7GKAnKOC
756Please respect copyright.PENANAOXS3ShqSvQ
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAa5Rk7jh11x
756Please respect copyright.PENANAQlY7zt9Rgo
"All I am saying is," she said, "if Daniel wasn't so lucky, I would have won that game."756Please respect copyright.PENANAk0l3bmkTsS
756Please respect copyright.PENANAa2IN7kYEtU
"Too bad you got eaten by the snake towards the end," said Daniel as he smiled at Zoey.756Please respect copyright.PENANAkdt7KkmIB3
756Please respect copyright.PENANA6TwXxkJwIw
"Sometimes I think you cheat."756Please respect copyright.PENANABg773U9giV
756Please respect copyright.PENANAbKSWEkLLTZ
"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."756Please respect copyright.PENANAm7QnYn6176
756Please respect copyright.PENANAgfTIZkHq6e
"Morning," said Collins as he and Lee came towards us. "I see Zoey still hasn't gotten over that snakes and ladders game."756Please respect copyright.PENANALbMTxnDoWH
756Please respect copyright.PENANAVsx6Dvm0RV
Zoey looked down at her empty plate, not daring to look up at Collins. "Not really," she said.756Please respect copyright.PENANAmrTKF8nle6
756Please respect copyright.PENANAsKtFkHUqYI
"Will all of BTW be meeting today to continue working on the song?" Collins asked as he looked at me.756Please respect copyright.PENANABL6OazdFxt
756Please respect copyright.PENANASm9Fdfq6Gm
"I have to communicate with them and see if it's possible," I answered.756Please respect copyright.PENANA0RfNiAVKVk
756Please respect copyright.PENANAfUnQ8tKZ5W
"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."756Please respect copyright.PENANA4mI3p0GJkP
756Please respect copyright.PENANAOpGef2frNC
"I better go give them a call, then."756Please respect copyright.PENANAcN6kdsI2vR
756Please respect copyright.PENANAx91YI42md1
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANADXzn1Eyvtw
756Please respect copyright.PENANAm77Nq3xAEW
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAC3Aqfqq5gZ
756Please respect copyright.PENANAtSRT6e347u
"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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAGWvNYLXqes
756Please respect copyright.PENANA9zyXjrtdBs
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAcL9m9E9HEz
756Please respect copyright.PENANAIW5tLvPILZ
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANATWu3Ygys9E
756Please respect copyright.PENANAYFIfnN0Q3c
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?756Please respect copyright.PENANAM0WWK5n2XI
756Please respect copyright.PENANA2oRfY6quxo
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAVnU2Q04g7F
756Please respect copyright.PENANAHwxEMb6tlJ
"Hello?" Seunghoon answered. He sounded sleepy.756Please respect copyright.PENANA11JNHvXQXt
756Please respect copyright.PENANA6aUkO4yoKT
"Seunghoon? Hey, are you still asleep?" I asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAom1JyWh7l9
756Please respect copyright.PENANASuw5m2MQYZ
"Sam?" he sounded surprised and more awake. "Oh, I didn't notice it was you."756Please respect copyright.PENANAnqQVzl6JJP
756Please respect copyright.PENANAG3gGhqJIV7
"Are you guys coming to meet us here at the hotel? We have a song to work on, remember?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAEeXjTQGpm1
756Please respect copyright.PENANAanZBsmSX9T
"Oh, oh, ya, we do..., ummm, eish.....," I heard him mutter something in Korean. "You said we can meet either today or tomorrow, right?"756Please respect copyright.PENANA8zhsEWk10t
756Please respect copyright.PENANAAGsO0CLLDF
"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."756Please respect copyright.PENANAsGEKfrRA2M
756Please respect copyright.PENANAPxBh1hFCEU
"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."756Please respect copyright.PENANA3Bve08BpzX
756Please respect copyright.PENANAJQyXoeyO8v
"Ya, sure."756Please respect copyright.PENANA1RsZtECrOh
756Please respect copyright.PENANAosPMidBy3K
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAE6CjLH6tXQ
756Please respect copyright.PENANAImzENwDbCN
The door to the room flew open and Zoey came in.756Please respect copyright.PENANA9EIymqiP6Q
756Please respect copyright.PENANAhQWAdwy5lU
"Anything?" Zoey asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAkmWDXkZRXG
756Please respect copyright.PENANAeYisLlzbIO
"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."756Please respect copyright.PENANAZhkxdcwZlo
756Please respect copyright.PENANA0C2o89buH9
"Okay, well, we can wait."756Please respect copyright.PENANAqIow9N4Ed7
756Please respect copyright.PENANARpInU5xM9q
"Maybe we should cancel and meet tomorrow. Seunghoon was still asleep when I called."756Please respect copyright.PENANA4c0UQV5AaE
756Please respect copyright.PENANAN7z0Jmt7DP
"We could, but Yang Hyun-suk wants to hear the song tomorrow."756Please respect copyright.PENANACmorFw0y5p
756Please respect copyright.PENANA3nPEIQBVXz
"We can tell Collins to tell him that he will have to wait a little longer."756Please respect copyright.PENANA1Er72WezFd
756Please respect copyright.PENANA97ocjtdZnO
"Geez, this is Yang Hyun-suk we're talking about. He wouldn't like taking orders from a missy like you."756Please respect copyright.PENANAhtKI5ts01S
756Please respect copyright.PENANAcDHOwmPtSc
I shrugged my shoulders. "It's just a suggestion, not an order."756Please respect copyright.PENANAVwJG4Iy9Tt
756Please respect copyright.PENANAv2J8DulCxP
"Ooh, you know what I mean," she said irritatingly.756Please respect copyright.PENANAstleaGSZdT
756Please respect copyright.PENANAyNiVkI1Mfl
"We can't work on the song without them."756Please respect copyright.PENANAbL5mQ46YfO
756Please respect copyright.PENANAzilgd2QG4o
"True, but you started to work on the song way before we all met yesterday. You're a good songwriter after all."756Please respect copyright.PENANAzySa7RQJ5T
756Please respect copyright.PENANACQNQzIJehk
"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."756Please respect copyright.PENANAcdQzuC2Yoi
756Please respect copyright.PENANAa8rOgyIoxM
"Huh, funny. Collins was talking about it with Lee just now. You two seem to think alike."756Please respect copyright.PENANAlBb5RI3pMX
756Please respect copyright.PENANA8uGSghr4Dd
"Yay, we will be working on one song," I said with less enthusiasm.756Please respect copyright.PENANAFZ9zFumFQI
756Please respect copyright.PENANAqa54bvTafq
"Then get your guitar and notebook."756Please respect copyright.PENANAxCrSE6rw68
756Please respect copyright.PENANAYQeYyP0Qev
"May you help me with my guitar?" I asked. "It's in the closet."756Please respect copyright.PENANAu0P6VH8367
756Please respect copyright.PENANANWvZlcF3jc
"Really? Why do I get to carry the heavy stuff for you?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAC21gF17DML
756Please respect copyright.PENANAYVGi0ppqRE
"I never let you carry any of my heavy stuff. And besides, the guitar isn't so heavy."756Please respect copyright.PENANAwHpz4Sz8od
756Please respect copyright.PENANA2pmEnIeoVl
"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.756Please respect copyright.PENANA66Wj7NJL1I
756Please respect copyright.PENANAsxZ1ACZLlV
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAamKg5drGHG
756Please respect copyright.PENANA2F2ov2pMH5
"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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAo1haDrdtlW
756Please respect copyright.PENANAHFiPGPUfjo
"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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAS2YiJgIYRC
756Please respect copyright.PENANAJLH6xtJBgX
"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?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAdTFCiwpZSj
756Please respect copyright.PENANACeADhKVeUF
"Am yet to receive a reply," I answered.756Please respect copyright.PENANAULLq1OKxVL
756Please respect copyright.PENANAZw27a3bWsv
"I hope all goes to plan," said Collins as he stood up. "Yang Hyun-suk is really looking forward to hearing the song."756Please respect copyright.PENANAaEFG0QttSm
756Please respect copyright.PENANAolSj18xd5a
I gulped. Something told me it was best if the managers heard the song another day.756Please respect copyright.PENANAtqaXOECrJk
756Please respect copyright.PENANAc7fueICkYV
"I actually think we need a little more time," I said to Collins.756Please respect copyright.PENANAgVxfvSF8om
756Please respect copyright.PENANACEZs7ZPHfj
"Really?" he raised his eyebrow at me.756Please respect copyright.PENANAP9LIZ8g32X
756Please respect copyright.PENANAhrZV77DdYR
I felt Zoey look at me. She knew what I was doing. I had no other choice but to stall.756Please respect copyright.PENANAuGWp1b6My2
756Please respect copyright.PENANAJs7LhJfpSG
"Yes, really," I answered.756Please respect copyright.PENANAUUc0St5odc
756Please respect copyright.PENANAyuwPtwVIXr
"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."756Please respect copyright.PENANAOVXGy6snCL
756Please respect copyright.PENANAzCh14ICrGC
I nodded my head. "It will be a great song, trust me."756Please respect copyright.PENANApyvsQAPCKX
756Please respect copyright.PENANACx1WgtIA5P
Collins smiled at Zoey and I, then left the lounge heading for the elevator. It looked like he was going out as always.756Please respect copyright.PENANAqtYgbdw1n2
756Please respect copyright.PENANANejbYNJK1W
"Well, that went well," said Zoey after we were sure that Collins had gone.756Please respect copyright.PENANAh2EAGWNtUn
756Please respect copyright.PENANAF3v1o3zab4
"What went well?" Lee asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAKpfjHkBDbQ
756Please respect copyright.PENANA6WpcHKSH63
"Nothing, nothing," said Zoey as she went ahead to put the guitar on the nearest couch and smiled at Lee.756Please respect copyright.PENANAqmtlWUceSQ
756Please respect copyright.PENANA4pMvJSVIAX
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAPTog8eUD2D
756Please respect copyright.PENANAr4E1YuYOi3
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAkwvCerkxQ3
756Please respect copyright.PENANAF8mRfAo05C
"Any news from the others yet?" she asked as she stood beside me.756Please respect copyright.PENANAO0BMrhI1mI
756Please respect copyright.PENANAG5Mu53vkmC
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."756Please respect copyright.PENANAcDKhBrxn7D
756Please respect copyright.PENANAqSRTFjsfbW
"Bummer," she said as she went over to sit on the couch. Zoey soon joined her.756Please respect copyright.PENANAlYlte95La7
756Please respect copyright.PENANA5OGbtmuNmN
"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."756Please respect copyright.PENANAwP0U36g4bc
756Please respect copyright.PENANANugIzimgcW
"I thought we agreed that we were all going to rest and then meet up," said Christine.756Please respect copyright.PENANAchg7DucPKK
756Please respect copyright.PENANAfXvpChnowQ
"The sad part was I suggested we meet either today or tomorrow," I said.756Please respect copyright.PENANA3sBGrJoVOF
756Please respect copyright.PENANAYX2sfIxip0
"I think I was the one who suggested that," said Lee as she winced.756Please respect copyright.PENANAT001AVgDhh
756Please respect copyright.PENANAEosmfEd0aY
"Judging by Sam's phone that should have rang minutes ago, we're likely to meet tomorrow," said Zoey.756Please respect copyright.PENANAaoQy1YvP8q
756Please respect copyright.PENANAwzSUTOgYBX
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAcRHpqTnGZE
756Please respect copyright.PENANAUD3S1f8ZDM
"Ya, you're right," I said as I slumped my shoulders and lowered my phone. I sighed.756Please respect copyright.PENANAp0TONocpIb
756Please respect copyright.PENANAh3A7FANj2c
"If these guys are taking a day off, don't you think we should as well?" Zoey asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAiZQLNT9Drh
756Please respect copyright.PENANAVQvl6ZDBKZ
"No!" Christine, Lee and I said at the same time.756Please respect copyright.PENANAzEdwcVxWiE
756Please respect copyright.PENANAJHP5WvFKZJ
Zoey's face was one filled with disappointment. "I really wanted to go shopping."756Please respect copyright.PENANAq8RkKINWQ1
756Please respect copyright.PENANAojPzHgeoqa
"If they won't come, we will work on the song ourselves," I said. "I'll just text them-"756Please respect copyright.PENANAuHzQSLEbum
756Please respect copyright.PENANAidXCKn8Est
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAiaW9VmqyCp
756Please respect copyright.PENANAFF9ZYFXrYw
After pressing the send button, Lee asked, "was that Seunghoon?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAIHvHBPX4yk
756Please respect copyright.PENANAs90G72Dncx
"Yep, and he said they aren't going to make it."756Please respect copyright.PENANA7FTtu2EnHE
756Please respect copyright.PENANAfLnKh81QwS
"Well, you saw this coming," said Zoey.756Please respect copyright.PENANAQMwsKsjDBq
756Please respect copyright.PENANAbUhGsY9l1X
"And you did well to stall the managers," said Lee. "That will give you some breathing space."756Please respect copyright.PENANAiA8yQRcAue
756Please respect copyright.PENANAHCGp4zAsLq
"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?"756Please respect copyright.PENANA9BgCJjtt9D
756Please respect copyright.PENANAhBsJGgsZga
"I can go call them, they are in their room," said Lee.756Please respect copyright.PENANAwQNMi1jFNt
756Please respect copyright.PENANAviJP970Sa5
She didn't even have to leave the lounge as Mike and Daniel soon appeared.756Please respect copyright.PENANAr6XFRahKQv
756Please respect copyright.PENANABWdwSnXX2s
"We're working on the song already?" Daniel asked. "Aren't we waiting for the others?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAKvQx6uEcVr
756Please respect copyright.PENANA56JvanFpsf
"They won't make it today," said Zoey as I sat down.756Please respect copyright.PENANAmEgbKDPZSH
756Please respect copyright.PENANA8mjxnYqlUV
"Mmm..., how come?" Mike asked, sounding puzzled.756Please respect copyright.PENANAdwRKPu4Fue
756Please respect copyright.PENANASz4kxEaWlx
"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."756Please respect copyright.PENANANTaiJiPxqu
756Please respect copyright.PENANAkDKxuSIEcM
"Bummer," said Daniel as he came to sit right beside me.756Please respect copyright.PENANAlr1m6hvgMi
756Please respect copyright.PENANAiuCRTTUjAJ
"Not to worry, we can still make progress without them. Shall we begin?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAQzrtDzN1h7
756Please respect copyright.PENANAk8qDJIr253
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANA8DISPEqejQ
756Please respect copyright.PENANAGZimgd6Oua
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAUFO1HQ61to
756Please respect copyright.PENANAKa4AVBYSxh
"Who's calling, Sam?" Daniel asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAa4eddD1UD1
756Please respect copyright.PENANA1dE4iMGwc4
"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."756Please respect copyright.PENANAvwAmQOYvSe
756Please respect copyright.PENANAYmw8prIFOU
"It's him, alright," I said as I took the phone and picked up the call. "Hey, GD."756Please respect copyright.PENANALWwQb5mzL9
756Please respect copyright.PENANAN9Wazscum1
"Hi, I'm in the elevator right now coming to your floor. I'll be there in like 30 seconds."756Please respect copyright.PENANAfVqOXrUlrN
756Please respect copyright.PENANAe9JGcZUtSv
"Wait, you're....," the line went dead. I stared at the phone.756Please respect copyright.PENANAuIlQ6SigI3
756Please respect copyright.PENANA0fx4tZArM9
"What is it?" Christine asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAoifUALX9FA
756Please respect copyright.PENANAxUtvzpBr9N
We heard the sound of the elevator doors on our floor announcing the arrival of our visitor.756Please respect copyright.PENANAiSE9NBFChJ
756Please respect copyright.PENANA40RG30XsNA
"He's here," I said.756Please respect copyright.PENANAJdYYodDblB
756Please respect copyright.PENANAofZM6Epp8n
Lee who sat at the dining table, working, asked, "how come we were never informed at the reception of his arrival?"756Please respect copyright.PENANANeXTI9SboH
756Please respect copyright.PENANAyqa4X6u3sI
"It's because I told them not to," came G-Dragon as he appeared in the lounge.756Please respect copyright.PENANACwUUIbDwfV
756Please respect copyright.PENANArbdYd0Fl13
We turned to look at him. Somehow, I wasn't surprised that he was here.756Please respect copyright.PENANAlMFTdxXzTm
756Please respect copyright.PENANA07yl55CcFR
"Hello, everyone," he greeted as he came to where the five of us, sat.756Please respect copyright.PENANAtJWbmPAbWp
756Please respect copyright.PENANA9o6z2eMHmQ
Four of us, including Lee, replied to his greeting except Zoey who said, "how come you're here?"756Please respect copyright.PENANALoZw65rMil
756Please respect copyright.PENANAa0wx2JaXWr
"What's wrong with me being here?" he asked as he shrugged his shoulders.756Please respect copyright.PENANApCGGiOFSeC
756Please respect copyright.PENANAtML1GkzXOU
"For someone who went partying last night, you seem pretty sober."756Please respect copyright.PENANAINAXFTMwXQ
756Please respect copyright.PENANA8HTanNBOyt
"Oh.., how did the party go anyway?" Christine asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAVWlYqUi8An
756Please respect copyright.PENANAbVLhXmfZD0
"It was great," he said with a happy grin.756Please respect copyright.PENANA1oi1FaEtBJ
756Please respect copyright.PENANATOB5wSkvQF
"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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAjjvl2icxwC
756Please respect copyright.PENANAxHSqHWmhAx
"Normal?" Daniel suggested. Though he was only joking.756Please respect copyright.PENANA0Uiebsfd5j
756Please respect copyright.PENANA6uI2dR86cO
"Wait, you think I'm not normal?" G-Dragon asked. He almost looked offended.756Please respect copyright.PENANAPNT62A36tL
756Please respect copyright.PENANAZ7SYKvCaOw
"Nah, that's not the word, Daniel," said Mike. "It doesn't matter anyway."756Please respect copyright.PENANAWwnXchp79v
756Please respect copyright.PENANA0r4MbnNUfl
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANA8TEyzAlAbK
756Please respect copyright.PENANAVP5qDJ7ydf
"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."756Please respect copyright.PENANAtm9Z4Y4sLz
756Please respect copyright.PENANATBjFWNWlvt
"Did you just say 'we?'" I asked as I raised my eyebrow at him.756Please respect copyright.PENANAB0XKd8aOVv
756Please respect copyright.PENANANTN8IayZjt
"What?" he asked as if he hadn't heard my question. I felt like he did.756Please respect copyright.PENANActry4g28FE
756Please respect copyright.PENANAESYdByQ10q
"You said 'we.' Who else were you with?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAEpPLq72FEq
756Please respect copyright.PENANA2NNKZnGuf5
"Oh.., just friends, very close..., very good friends," he answered as he nodded his head.756Please respect copyright.PENANAbWy3fpKzwg
756Please respect copyright.PENANAwtFB9eHqCo
"Okay," I said as I slowly nodded back. "I'm glad you had fun."756Please respect copyright.PENANAOKyheGKIWa
756Please respect copyright.PENANAZWVYFtpDqo
"You guys should have come. It was amazing."756Please respect copyright.PENANANkIWC3M1Qa
756Please respect copyright.PENANA8nOUHcp2fb
"Too late for that now, isn't it?" Christine asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANA3jJxKSreLl
756Please respect copyright.PENANAxm96bXEvSO
"Yep, too late. But you could still see the pics of how much fun we had."756Please respect copyright.PENANAzL4RDZ420z
756Please respect copyright.PENANANXt6HmATCF
"I bet there was plenty of booze too," said Zoey.756Please respect copyright.PENANA6It41erbXz
756Please respect copyright.PENANAS6mJXr7ApL
"Plenty," said G-Dragon with a smile.756Please respect copyright.PENANAswFUo1YZtT
756Please respect copyright.PENANAzO9rmFA3tU
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....756Please respect copyright.PENANAA8ug8MpqgB
756Please respect copyright.PENANAhl8CCycTUB
"We can check the pics later," I said. "We have a song to write."756Please respect copyright.PENANAwsUZBo4iHU
756Please respect copyright.PENANAk69XCMDyNa
"The others aren't here yet?" G-Dragon asked. "How can you work on the song without them?"756Please respect copyright.PENANABpS9aqMlJW
756Please respect copyright.PENANAQQZB5mckoi
"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."756Please respect copyright.PENANA7SRGbZJG0p
756Please respect copyright.PENANAduF9uBa0Eg
"Oh. I think that's fair considering that they must be tired from the party."756Please respect copyright.PENANAfgqJYohbC2
756Please respect copyright.PENANANRZVuUe2Dc
I looked at G-Dragon, and so did the rest of the Toxins.756Please respect copyright.PENANAXZVYvSrbH0
756Please respect copyright.PENANAal4oCQiyNB
"They were with you at the party?" Daniel asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAWx8RudOUBG
756Please respect copyright.PENANArJNFHdLID3
"Huh....?" G-Dragon now looked like the confused one. "I thought you knew."756Please respect copyright.PENANApHPyNE6cNL
756Please respect copyright.PENANAcqaraOaCuV
"How would we know when we were resting yesterday and we were completely off social media?" Christine asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANApGiH1HvtZ3
756Please respect copyright.PENANA5J3ZB7AR00
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANA9tIuu94LG1
756Please respect copyright.PENANABDF4xX6bg6
"You dragged them to the party, didn't you?" Zoey asked as she pointed a finger at him. "You're such a manipulator!"756Please respect copyright.PENANAhJcwpTSnde
756Please respect copyright.PENANAQMbfBC96sr
"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."756Please respect copyright.PENANAP2unZfcnjM
756Please respect copyright.PENANAYQkmE71Wfl
"I knew it!" Zoey said with a look on her face.756Please respect copyright.PENANAgco8bFaEDO
756Please respect copyright.PENANAbmwsVS9h8I
"But ninety percent of the whole convincing thing was on the other guy."756Please respect copyright.PENANA8oORFVpuAO
756Please respect copyright.PENANAnzlAkyIlnJ
"The other guy?" Mike asked as he raised his eyebrows.756Please respect copyright.PENANAgF0BmP6eO9
756Please respect copyright.PENANAkTyHCkcl8Q
"Who's the other guy?" Christine asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAfOBxBTI3IF
756Please respect copyright.PENANAfEs7o2c7tL
I knew there was something fishy about G-Dragon's earlier statements. He didn't just go and party with "just" close friends.756Please respect copyright.PENANAjwkcBacewu
756Please respect copyright.PENANAbku6DYyg3L
"Tell us," Zoey demanded when G-Dragon didn't speak.756Please respect copyright.PENANASvhDgw2ahZ
756Please respect copyright.PENANAmmHmR2hN34
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAleogtbotgw
756Please respect copyright.PENANAmqxF8pWjDL
"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."756Please respect copyright.PENANAx22lK2iMkr
756Please respect copyright.PENANA4D2pOYNiEc
G-Dragon squeezed his eyes shut in fright. And just like that, we knew it was a big deal.756Please respect copyright.PENANAfCWg4ix4F3
756Please respect copyright.PENANAfv03EzJXAB
"Goodness, just tell us, GD," I said. "We have a song to work on and you're just wasting our time."756Please respect copyright.PENANATXioJ3JHgF
756Please respect copyright.PENANA60d24Gt9C8
"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."756Please respect copyright.PENANA3gSLWAKO1z
756Please respect copyright.PENANA6WzvgmkFO9
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAKA3T51bkUm
756Please respect copyright.PENANAGA4kd4Sz8S
"GD, sit down, please," I instructed him and he did.756Please respect copyright.PENANAQRl4oVA1F4
756Please respect copyright.PENANAiPG5QRAH10
"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."756Please respect copyright.PENANA94btLnHsDE
756Please respect copyright.PENANAR57QQcIRgt
"Okay, okay," G-Dragon surrendered. "I'll tell you."756Please respect copyright.PENANA8TS04KcNYg
756Please respect copyright.PENANAv5WkYnvi3I
"First question," said Christine with her arms folded. "Who were you with downstairs when you left our floor yesterday?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAoQbyHacCo2
756Please respect copyright.PENANAWnUGPAAbfN
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."756Please respect copyright.PENANAQh8lAcRvVs
756Please respect copyright.PENANARVM6w5grd6
"We will make sure to bury you in a lovely place, promise," said Mike. "Now, spill."756Please respect copyright.PENANAmYOzObkcCn
756Please respect copyright.PENANAWUDsqMDreV
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..."756Please respect copyright.PENANAAxe2FXoIZD
756Please respect copyright.PENANALGvRfvu7n3
"GD, we don't want to hear how you all met," I said, "we want a name. Who is the guy?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6rA8ULBLf
756Please respect copyright.PENANAO25r5sFc21
"It's..., it's..., Johnny," said G-Dragon. He immediately looked down at the floor.756Please respect copyright.PENANADFh9NYWBgj
756Please respect copyright.PENANAhOi874rUd8
"Johnny Jerkins!" the five of us said at the same time.756Please respect copyright.PENANAj3q82zzNLQ
756Please respect copyright.PENANACYkK1biRYn
"Yes," G-Dragon as he slowly nodded his head, still facing downwards.756Please respect copyright.PENANAbVMnrODwh5
756Please respect copyright.PENANAg8tqRHuBIC
Zoey fell onto the couch next to G-Dragon like she was about to pass out, her hand on her forehead.756Please respect copyright.PENANARi6gyRnzuP
756Please respect copyright.PENANAvRKfSIJb2A
"I can't believe it" she said.756Please respect copyright.PENANAQh6WRimDRW
756Please respect copyright.PENANAo0N1tmi3Wt
"That explains everything," I said, as I looked at a certain part of the wall above the couch, my mind far off.756Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5LcYkrDsO
756Please respect copyright.PENANAl6W590ke2u
"No wonder they couldn't make it," said Daniel.756Please respect copyright.PENANAN10aX9vGjA
756Please respect copyright.PENANAzBY0a4yjPM
"They didn't just go to the party, they were hanging out with Johnny," said Mike.756Please respect copyright.PENANAWj0kImoPtZ
756Please respect copyright.PENANAVlraqOyBQV
"Ya...., you won't like what I am about to show you," said Lee behind us.756Please respect copyright.PENANA3mPfYM6Fcv
756Please respect copyright.PENANAEyGadOaf8V
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAuaxWZ1kYpr
756Please respect copyright.PENANAeGbdTKwrgN
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANADLYbTySfNe
756Please respect copyright.PENANA15CTdvoLoH
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:756Please respect copyright.PENANATQ4Bx8AMh0
756Please respect copyright.PENANAPv121xQYVc
"You guys had a party on a boat?" I looked at G-Dragon.756Please respect copyright.PENANAxbVgaTEIvu
756Please respect copyright.PENANAjjvZqQJZ5L
"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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAIMgbymlLYh
756Please respect copyright.PENANAT9RvGrWnUD
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANALyLbbsnZ2M
756Please respect copyright.PENANAOViaxtMa3p
"You guys had such a good time," said Zoey. "I wish I came."756Please respect copyright.PENANAVJA7H8b2E1
756Please respect copyright.PENANAtic4hhCkuB
"You see, you guys should have tagged along," said G-Dragon.756Please respect copyright.PENANAVqUODbaMov
756Please respect copyright.PENANA81w1mTy9tC
"And hang out with Johnny? Heck no!" Zoey detested.756Please respect copyright.PENANAd5B2xeSvaV
756Please respect copyright.PENANAZzZogPOzeR
"He seems pretty cool."756Please respect copyright.PENANAAhMo5MpRB7
756Please respect copyright.PENANAJnXSV05tqI
"That's because you only just met him," said Daniel.756Please respect copyright.PENANAjkzfrXPf3L
756Please respect copyright.PENANAcuSmFZydBN
"You won't be hanging out with him more often, will you?" Christine asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAHwU1RySa9Y
756Please respect copyright.PENANAgvaTAlTlXU
"Nah," G-Dragon denied. "I guess all that was just a one time thing."756Please respect copyright.PENANAU5rC9HbAue
756Please respect copyright.PENANAXzw2liUr27
"That's what they all say," said Zoey. I imagined her rolling her eyes when she said that.756Please respect copyright.PENANAjjjlccCeGI
756Please respect copyright.PENANAokiQunymIl
"And let's not forget, he's in this hotel," I said. "Avoiding him will be tricky."756Please respect copyright.PENANAx5v5qv3nXh
756Please respect copyright.PENANA7QTsWeaJLu
"Don't you think maybe you guys are taking this thing a little too far?" G-Dragon asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANALNhYhe0Fah
756Please respect copyright.PENANAn24jA6fO71
"What thing?" Christine asked. Her eyes were still fixed on the tablet as Lee continued to scroll.756Please respect copyright.PENANAgDfWnMdbDb
756Please respect copyright.PENANAwFk5aW3mQs
"This 'Johnny' thing?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAHJZBaQsAdI
756Please respect copyright.PENANAw0s9gZE9Jj
I looked up from the tablet at G-Dragon and I knew I wasn't the only one.756Please respect copyright.PENANATxZc4pdL0O
756Please respect copyright.PENANAR5rPdDJccS
"Why would we?" I asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAqDioA8fn7k
756Please respect copyright.PENANA4G0Pdqju2x
"You talk about him as if he's your worst enemy."756Please respect copyright.PENANA6gV7VzWVjB
756Please respect copyright.PENANAU3E7k4RQUt
"Look, we don't hate people, well, maybe some," said Mike. "It's just that some people aren't worth hanging out with."756Please respect copyright.PENANAhtFBPO84hU
756Please respect copyright.PENANAQSoKTSbJNf
"Because of his actions back at school? Please, that was a long time ago."756Please respect copyright.PENANAdjqfuX7s8N
756Please respect copyright.PENANAgY0yH6u4Gi
"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?"756Please respect copyright.PENANACfnxungFNQ
756Please respect copyright.PENANARNEMGxSEbP
"How ironic," said G-Dragon as he stood up from the couch.756Please respect copyright.PENANA9OhZGnOzEq
756Please respect copyright.PENANAB1PZXgdWBP
"Leaving already?" Lee asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAytOnOZABHq
756Please respect copyright.PENANAueJlZXDF8J
"Ya, I really should. Just came to check up on the progress with the song."756Please respect copyright.PENANAxLgumZDprw
756Please respect copyright.PENANAQtwHpRqBm9
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAf4yzDEnLdy
756Please respect copyright.PENANAAfnQa9JIZp
"I'll escort you to the elevator," I said as I stood up from the couch.756Please respect copyright.PENANAAmXz3PSrzX
756Please respect copyright.PENANA1rjWDpZ6eT
"Ok," he said and he turned to address the others, "I'll see you guys later."756Please respect copyright.PENANAMIvhpinYym
756Please respect copyright.PENANA2qnl4bSVS3
"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.756Please respect copyright.PENANAwL8G4TEUIL
756Please respect copyright.PENANAeDF4msINeB
G-Dragon made his way out of the lounge and I was right behind him.756Please respect copyright.PENANALVlD5lnlwu
756Please respect copyright.PENANA8l1iBRoJIm
"Well, you seem upset," I said to him when we were in the hall.756Please respect copyright.PENANAUoRLZS2Ncl
756Please respect copyright.PENANA0kkjJ0o66n
"No, I'm not," he said as he shrugged his shoulders.756Please respect copyright.PENANAJOSLvXAMuD
756Please respect copyright.PENANA2xjwvx2Hd4
I held his shoulder and he stopped walking, his back still facing me.756Please respect copyright.PENANAQLnR7mefyj
756Please respect copyright.PENANA3UtOXGSQrl
"I know when you're upset," I said as I dropped my hand. "I think the others know too."756Please respect copyright.PENANApYuGNmIVKK
756Please respect copyright.PENANAN89rM1wmaQ
He turned around to look at me. "I don't get you guys at all," he said.756Please respect copyright.PENANA2jhudn9qvE
756Please respect copyright.PENANAlKPduwhepq
"What do you mean?" I folded my arms.756Please respect copyright.PENANAovddx3ETat
756Please respect copyright.PENANAx5HKyIfyzy
"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."756Please respect copyright.PENANAgry24Byfxg
756Please respect copyright.PENANAHg1xxaGM6M
"We aren't perfect, you know? We have our emotions too, whether good or bad."756Please respect copyright.PENANAo3p0rpdYqV
756Please respect copyright.PENANA3oYGYb9xVl
"But why hate on Johnny so much?"756Please respect copyright.PENANANmJhXcjfKq
756Please respect copyright.PENANAlwBwwPY2En
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."756Please respect copyright.PENANAlY0ZUfrwRD
756Please respect copyright.PENANAeTL2Q0Sark
"Really?"756Please respect copyright.PENANApZgUxt1d3t
756Please respect copyright.PENANAPEYZHmqr92
"If we really did, we would have called him worse names than 'jerk' now, wouldn't we?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAibswhd5XLq
756Please respect copyright.PENANAlkTmLE33GU
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."756Please respect copyright.PENANAuD0hcNFNUn
756Please respect copyright.PENANA4IPBYdHwRA
I sighed as I dropped my arms. "Some people aren't worth mingling around with, Jiyong."756Please respect copyright.PENANAzgQOmIjS8w
756Please respect copyright.PENANAUwTeVlxtfT
"Is there something you aren't telling me?" He raised his eyebrow at me and took a step closer.756Please respect copyright.PENANA2CHoxn5noh
756Please respect copyright.PENANAlpsHFJRfln
I shrugged my shoulders. "Kind of," I answered. "You're yet to know everything in due time."756Please respect copyright.PENANAWpHYjKadgf
756Please respect copyright.PENANACuV2gopAdc
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.756Please respect copyright.PENANA05WK5IfhCn
756Please respect copyright.PENANAgOzVZvmDAh
"Okay, I'll see you around, then," said G-Dragon as he managed to smile.756Please respect copyright.PENANAfA6cEmpT9O
756Please respect copyright.PENANARcixuP5oL5
"Ya, you too," I answered as I smiled back.756Please respect copyright.PENANAHHTeswbSOT
756Please respect copyright.PENANAemMGzmzj9u
He turned and walked to the elevator. I stood there and watched him leave.756Please respect copyright.PENANAsn8ELcjDCf
756Please respect copyright.PENANAsWGbpZe4bb
"Sam, get in here quick!" Zoey called out to me. "You have to see this!"756Please respect copyright.PENANARa7aLxCJGP
756Please respect copyright.PENANAPZ2rt1CP2a
I quickly went back into the lounge and took my seat next to Lee.756Please respect copyright.PENANAFi9b6BPdi5
756Please respect copyright.PENANAqCjMQSsOcG
"This better be worth the call," I said as I looked at Lee's tablet.756Please respect copyright.PENANAGeeVwLdTP3
756Please respect copyright.PENANAmnlEhUVybZ
"There was a dance video of Lisa and some girl," said Lee as she played the video for me.756Please respect copyright.PENANAGggm6YCKSt
756Please respect copyright.PENANA7hgKZCAoka
I watched Lisa and the young lady danced to a popular K-Pop song. There were people around that watched and cheered.756Please respect copyright.PENANA4LVYqrBcMg
756Please respect copyright.PENANAZgJ3iiZ0jy
"Well, that's cool," I said after the clip ended.756Please respect copyright.PENANAiENdyucKJ4
756Please respect copyright.PENANApL7dx1ZBDd
"These guys had a really good time," said Mike.756Please respect copyright.PENANAKTPj8NAGq1
756Please respect copyright.PENANA1Y1gAoZ0P1
"Ya, but with someone you consider your enemy," said Lee.756Please respect copyright.PENANAQNwXfU714Y
756Please respect copyright.PENANATAStRnDaOY
"Whatever," said Christine. "We're way past that. We just don't want any drama with him."756Please respect copyright.PENANAkjiFRuNjq4
756Please respect copyright.PENANAg4Bo8MnYZ4
"That will be impossible since he got to hang out with G-Dragon, BlackPink and WINNER who happen to be your friends."756Please respect copyright.PENANAgC5zqufVNW
756Please respect copyright.PENANALcYxor7aK8
"Ya, good point," said Daniel. "What do you think we should do?"756Please respect copyright.PENANATw1oy3MAQ1
756Please respect copyright.PENANAnP61fqHjoo
"Do we really have to do anything?" Christine asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAWdzTVRyZ4Q
756Please respect copyright.PENANASBuwpr23Tl
"Don't tell me you want to think of something like a battle strategy?" Lee asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAgQsEEZxdws
756Please respect copyright.PENANAOeXwtsqb7T
"Why should we?" I asked. "We have a song to work on, remember? Johnny should be the least of our problems."756Please respect copyright.PENANAYw6M7sl5hS
756Please respect copyright.PENANAOYAT6rdutS
"Something tells me we are going to meet him sooner than we anticipated," said Zoey.756Please respect copyright.PENANAQoSPKT9Hzd
756Please respect copyright.PENANADuYlwPKVQm
