We arrived at TS Entertainment within a few minutes. I never imagined that it was so close to the doughnut shop.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlIP0LoaCz
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrDbgVHUmT
We stood outside the gates of the building and were allowed inside by security. The building was four or five storeys high. Yong-nam continued to lead the way till we went inside.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVSIKxJgNb
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOzrtXmFaZ
We were in the reception area and there were two female receptionists at their desk. Yong-nam greeted one of them while the other was currently on a phone call. Yong-nam talked to the free receptionist and as soon as they were done, she turned and smiled at us welcoming us to the agency as she spoke in English.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKeEsMYKxLl
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NFsllT50O
"Thank you so much," said Lee. "We're really happy to be here."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6c8Kp0NeO3
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03OaAWqJr7
"If you need any help, we're here to assist," she said.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡku1JfLJo1t
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLs7xcrn72I
"Come on," said Yong-nam, "the others must probably be wondering why I've taken so long."
Yong-nam led us to the elevator a few feet away from the desk. He pressed the up button and we waited for a few seconds til the doors flew open. Just before we stepped in, Zoey held us to a stop as she stood in front of us, blocking the way to the elevator.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUKqP4g1P9
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJhgGlFatq
"Wait a minute, everyone," she said.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevICRD5huJ
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjcwAgoHS6
"Huh, what is it?" Yong-nam asked.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF27FKFnkPA
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvGWvtG4Qa
"We aren't more than the maximum number of people for the elevator to hold, are we?"665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjCKMBuwvR
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4ykT2xDkE
"Oh, brother," Mike muttered as he stared at the ceiling. "Not this again. The elevator is going to close if we don't go in."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOR888DfdFc
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJSK77nJQU
"We're seven, Zoey," I said. "Don't worry, the elevator will hold us just fine."
"Okay, just checking," said Zoey with a smile. "You remember what happened last time, right?"665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KyNAbuECu
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVIORSM10Z
Us Toxins would never forget the day when the five of us and the other five BigBang members got squeezed up in the elevator back at YG. There was barely enough room and it was at that point when we thought we would plummet to our deaths.
"Okay, since there's nothing to worry about," said Yong-nam, "should we get going?"665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXfC4W9PCE
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKqYYXmZEL
"Yes, please," said Daniel.
We all went inside and the elevator doors closed before us. Yong-nam who was closer to the elevator buttons, pressed one of them and the elevator started to move upwards. As soon as it did, the soft melodious elevator music started to play.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgPSvFGjdu
"Mmm," Lee looked up at the speaker atop the elevator roof. "It's not every elevator that you jump in that plays music."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKg6AUMO6s
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83PaNZke02
"I like it," said Daniel. "It feels kind of soothing."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EU4wQfmEv
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOt9szQWkzl
Soon the elevator came to a stop and the doors flew open. In front of us stood a long carpeted hallway. Yong-nam stepped out, leading the way as usual. He told us where we were; the recording studios.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnUyf02MsE
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡna1wzKNJRN
"I hope they are still around," said Yong-nam. "Sometimes they like to move around."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmT2dPDCjK
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmbCMp0pTh
"Are they recording or something?" I asked.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lNpfMOD4Z
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eG41tsbLi
"Ya, something like that. But they were trying to work on lyrics for their song."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoRhsexbRx
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwK9OzjZVzL
Looks like we weren't the only ones struggling with lyrics today.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2PTCwUqS8
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8vVNrtZgI
"We were also working on writing our song back at the hotel," said Zoey, "we needed some motivation, so that's why we came to buy doughnuts."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Z1wtYOUzY
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwM7G9nijs
"Sweet things also lift your spirits, huh?" Yong-nam asked as he smiled at Zoey.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3FZ8IqzDb
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tZud8zqT5
"Kind of. But they really work on Sam here," Zoey pointed her thumb at me as I walked behind her. I rolled my eyes. That's so not true. Well..., maybe with chocolate.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFuOJCFq36
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzw8rRUaH1
"Doughnuts aren't really my favourite, you know?" I said as I looked at Christine beside me. She quickly noticed my eyes and flushed a little.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAtPcsD2hF
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRGFm0d9uF
Zoey might like chocolate dip doughnuts, but Christine "loves" doughnuts. During our school days, she sometimes wouldn't take the school bus home just so she could buy doughnuts at the nearest store.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LgZH3P6NV
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MEeE9dHJe
"I get what you mean," said Yong-nam.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlZqa8yY5q
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTY3j0F5qy
We soon stopped by one of the doors down the hall and Yong-nam knocked with his free hand. For a second, no one answered.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHL6JZydgSx
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyS2NRp9LOk
"Is anyone in there?" Daniel asked.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiFPbOAf5c
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYPXw2j5Lc
"They should be," said Yong-nam as he knocked on the door again.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2CXIVwKHp
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6I3NEfBJa2
It took a few seconds till the door finally opened. Daehyun was the one behind it and his eyes weren't fixed on us as he seemed to be engaged in some conversation currently taking place in the room. But soon afterwards, his eyes focused on us that he did the unthinkable.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8ypagr5pV
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEJac23qhq
He screamed.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ceo2OPXXJ
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZdjV0pZtd
The door shut quickly in our faces. Well, that's weird. Everyone of us in the hall, looked at each other with puzzled looks. Did Daehyun just do that? I could understand if he were a girl, but a guy....? I'm finding it a little hard to believe.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlIF4sRdRe
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiytD7g26Wn
"What just happened?" Zoey asked as she looked wide-eyed at the door.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLInFNmy1z
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMtgj8LBMC
"Daehyun, what's wrong with you?" came a voice inside. "Who's by the door?"665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sXQm3ymhl
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAqUerybep
"Sorry, sorry, you won't believe who's here," said Daehyun, sounding shocked beyond belief.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIv2OJdUum
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nsbNBHZhy
The door opened again and this time, it was Zelo. He gasped and I thought he might shut the door in front of us like Daehyun, but he didn't.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7R6LQMPsOU
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1o1yhCRNFf
"OMG, it's you!" Zelo said with so much excitement. "Now I see why Daehyun screamed like a girl."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqG96wZwoQ4
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8usviuHrj5
"Hey, I didn't scream like a girl," said Daehyun as he came to stand right next to him.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZBbLfI8oj
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbEolBAa6Z
"What's going on here?" came Yong-guk's voice and we heard footsteps approaching the door.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBA8wsUmhff
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGT13Hy9Qc
"Hey, Yong-guk," greeted Zoey when he finally came into view.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoCWzJZRp2
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlO4Rgh0IZ
"Zoey?" Yong-guk couldn't believe that we were all there standing by the door. "The whole lot of the Toxins are here."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0I2p2I4Yvn
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaIPcbG44X
"Including me," said Lee, as she gave an embarrassing smile.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGLmJdaWZv
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDlBF0aPqj
"This is Lee," said Zoey. "She's our manager's assistant, but she's more like our friend."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGd0JDrWOs
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJb4Vd1HY8Q
"Where are your manners?" came Himchan as he joined the others. "Let them in."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkAen5sVhH
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlWrr8OoXA
"Oh, ya, sorry, about that," said Daehyun as he, Yong-guk and Himchan moved away from the door. Zelo drew the door wide open.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdra9LVHfX
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3nhh2wyxZ
"Welcome to their humble abode," said Yong-nam as he stepped inside the room first.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkorsifvwbQ
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqY9hsNDhb
"Hey! Are you making fun of us?" Zelo asked.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmjEiTd7mQ
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MUKpqwVL3
"Am I?" Yong-nam gave Zelo a smirk.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VlDxmZpgV
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCOlSOg6dn
As we entered the room, I noticed that the place looked busy. There was the recording room on the other side of the room and the sitting area looked a little messy with papers all around and Young-jae was picking up some of the mess.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FUxRDt6xq
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFOE3TjPJe
"I hope we didn't come at a bad time," I said.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4M0Y4jEkJf
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkD4xUQLmUv
"Nonsense, you guys couldn't have come at a better time," said Young-jae as he threw away the crumpled papers in the waste bin located at the corner.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHmykfsYYz
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYt77qoRoy
"I guess you're right," said Zoey as she went over to the cream coloured comfy couches and making herself comfortable.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDkzclHQt4
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1sPtoSd1o
"I'm glad you're all here," said Yong-guk. "We didn't get to meet Daniel and Mike last time."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaF5d2yfhK
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8f4e31GhL
"Ya, we weren't around back then," said Mike. "It's really nice meeting you all."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNe9cZu1Zt
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZSWORWu78
"Same here," said Zelo as he came to stand in between my two brothers. He's way taller than the both of them and I tried not to point it out.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgae5LKqfUo
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ucFHmXBEy
"Please, sit down," said Daehyun as he came towards Christine and me, held each of our hands, and dragged us to one of the couches next to the one Zoey sat.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbMmyXJAsr
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBuPwI7vG3
Christine giggled as she sat and so did I. "You didn't have to drag us here," she said.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtDqqjt4O8
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVjHZhpw7q
"Hope you don't mind," said Lee, as she sat next to Zoey with the box on her laps, "we brought some more doughnuts."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVlBTZoCQT
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKoZBKiycF
"Wow, really?" Himchan asked as he sat across from us. "I was wondering what you and Sam were carrying in there."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1V6f3uF3Q
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqN2mD83a2F
"That's how we met, actually," said Yong-nam as he laid the box he was carrying on the table.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVHEqFv3nz
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3ms9J20G8
"We mistook him for Yong-guk at the doughnut shop," said Christine.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FA6p92A6H
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBF2YHDXWp
"People mix us up pretty easily," said Yong-guk as he smiled.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JSNW1W9RB
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvrZWBSVUu
"Well, these things aren't going to eat themselves, are they?" Christine asked. "I say we dig in."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeNRNYVkko
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReDdyhMC4X
I gave Christine a look after placing the paper box on the table. It seems her craving for doughnuts hasn't disappeared after all.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGURRrFyKw4
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GEBaaHGnH
"I second to that," said Zoey.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGEJcy0GXi
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MxeINtmC3
"Ya, I'm in the mood for something sweet so badly," said Young-jae as he knelt near the table.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iio1kUqY1
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDzCHRxLx2
"Wait a minute," I said as I looked at the B.A.P members in the room. "Where's Jongup?"665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnAydnvVNX
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLTmOXNZ94
"I thought everyone had forgotten about me," came a voice from the recording booth.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHQfWTtdQn
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucouG7Ri7m
Everyone's eyes turned towards the booth and out he came.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofjxbDRMjJ
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZ0oOmA66X
"Hey," I greeted him. "I'm glad I realised you weren't here. We would have eaten all the doughnuts without you."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIpRXV7fT8
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zPFxniMOZ
"I'm glad you noticed," he said. He blushed as he scratched the back of his head.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABofuPt9gU
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUySln40zTE
"Okay, now that we're all here, let's dig in," said Lee.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLQd768Gik
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp913TRTxlD
Everyone else standing found themselves seated around the table and we started to chow down on the doughnuts.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoetou2HBxl
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vD2g5RBJg
"So, you guys are working on a song, huh?" Zoey asked. Her first doughnut as usual, a chocolate one.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hxzdFXYCq
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvMGVJIWwV
"Yep," Young-jae answered.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRAYLsjsRB
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1X2JcCj2X
"And it's not going so well," said Yong-guk.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqgZDKlOk8
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOUAMFuFgA
"We've all been there," said Mike after swallowing his first bite, "it's hell when you can't seem to figure out the right lyrics."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7b8EhB6kDy
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5vsIsg4MI
"We're going through the same too," said Christine.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQrreN8MpD
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqEaqsNe4F
"Mmm, really?" Zelo gleefully asked.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEiCj788wm
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUB18VYhwXB
"We were actually supposed to do it as a group," said Daniel. He had just finished his first doughnut and stretched out his hand for another. "I mean, the whole BTW. But the others didn't show up."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkc74R1haYt
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKp0xkHihpI
"And we were left to write the song all on our own," I said, slowly eating my doughnut.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzMbKXBgx5
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfjaYt63u5
"Looks like we're all in the same boat then," said Daehyun.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3iJhzeqT3
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19OZffLd9c
"Totally," Christine and Zoey said at the same time.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6I6bWyEjv
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0C5hPt9YL5
"What song are you guys working on?" Mike asked the B.A.P members.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs62NsuKmWs
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLUjpNAauN
"Oh, it's just one of those inspirational songs," Himchan answered. "And what of you?"665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ja9FkhyMg
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuybam4MOPI
"A sad heartbreak song that's supposed to be sad but actually sounds fun," said Daniel.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8X6rHEc7C
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJqiulWPAT
"Huh?" Jongup and Daehyun gave us confused looks.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3jqE7w4Ti
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmd9WEWfJV
"Ya, it sounds complicated but when you get to hear it you'll understand."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkvhkLWZxx
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4TSCPRv29
"Mmmm, now I'm curious," said Young-jae. "Do you think we can hear it?"665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwyn7rkeEP
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOyg3G9zrr
"Ahh...," I hesitated. I looked over at Lee who sat across and her eyes also found mine. "I guess so...."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUZIMujKiZ
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltYuwEQrPy
"Great," said Yong-nam. "Maybe if they get to hear it, Yong-guk may help you out a little."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJJmKN9IqN
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNm4jZyJJ3X
"I like the sound of that," said Mike. "We should also hear theirs and we might do the same."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgxaQAJnSp
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZodG2EQwG
"Ha, feels like a trade," said Jongup as he took a bite out of his doughnut.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJPNKaidJM
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYwA2PpwQD
"Are you sure you'll have enough time for that?" Lee asked.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqsjGQctUP
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuuPbZDqjI
That's right. We had agreed that we weren't going to stay here long. I also shouldn't forget about the other program. Maybe now was the perfect time to tell the other Toxins about it.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4ecRte51r
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2Osl1TEMB
"Lee's right," I said. "I don't think we've the time."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWMpSyMrQD
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TNP0FK7Cn
"But can't we compromise and stay here the whole day?" Zoey suggested.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0w4vIG8Xu
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVzWyleCOT
"That sounds like a good idea," said Daehyun. "It will be great if we all help each other out."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFvWypCIBb
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AckzJxw4y
I took another doughnut from the box, wondering how I'm going to break it to the others that we had plans tonight. But as soon as I straightened up to say something, Lee said:665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRLoFTgR2L
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgpkGkud0h
"Well, now that I think about it, you guys staying here to help each other out doesn't seem like a bad idea."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aidq8TT0R
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzu8h4DGA5
I looked at her, and I am glad that no one noticed the look on my face. The others around me muttered happily to each other. I raised an eyebrow at Lee wondering what she's getting at.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGv01Zoiku
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MYvFdAWPj
"Oh, you think so, Lee?" Zoey asked full of excitement and stars in her eyes.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaWeYW1FDi
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ976tbLuvbw
"Yep," Lee replied with a smile on her face. "And if you manage to make a tremendous amount of progress by the evening, you might just receive a reward."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0cwG74BwZ
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJJQFgPqCy
"A reward?" Mike and Daniel asked.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22BVrAHlzJ
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLCkEJBnWY
"What reward?" Christine asked.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEl7Omo7V8
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHLjbKDh5X
"I better not say, just be done before 4:30 PM," said Lee and she soon stuffed her mouth with a doughnut.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoB7awPTnHt
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzO8LNnYTH9
"Aren't you supposed to be here with us?" I asked.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04r5vgwsLQ
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CkmzX53gv
Lee quickly swallowed. "One thing's certain, I'm neither your bodyguard nor your babysitter. Oh.., don't worry about Collins. I'll just tell him you preferred to work alongside B.A.P for now."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxM0npSNsE
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSdcYAwNwy
I gave Lee a look and I knew why she's doing all this. We tire her out a lot, so this is her only chance to get us out of her radar at least for a few hours. Who knows, she might just find herself at a massage parlor, relaxing. She's taking advantage that she knows about tonight.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtAUBZPhrH
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokGPLmMNCF
"You shouldn't worry about them, Lee," said Yong-nam as he smiled at her. "If they cause any trouble, I'll be sure to handle them."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGyCoU2TUUy
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zJfdNugq4
"Really? What are you going to do?" Daniel asked as he gave Yong-nam a grim look.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreaiK8xnrI
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9bSviA6Qq
Himchan and Jongup both shook their heads as Jongup said, "you don't want to know."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GBNHaSzpY
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsw0C49Fj2s
"I believe you, Yong-nam," said Lee as she smiled back. "I doubt if they would give you any trouble, that's if they will be serious about receiving that reward."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqJLOrQHis
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOUnm1kBtt
"I really wish you could just tell us," said Mike.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzg1c5RTA6C
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctAII2H9PB
"I'll spoil everything for you. You just do your best and that won't be an issue."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ymikGH1PN
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ezwl8QFqg
I sighed. Everyone's falling for this except me. Now I wish I didn't tell her about Daesung's invitation.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFiemGBM6T7
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmx3kLAGZV
"It's settled, then," said Yong-guk.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTpCxT65M9
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYguLRJTW6
"It's settled, indeed," said Lee as she gave us a wide grin.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkBeQs2BCB
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0NCZ333z7
I sighed again. Maybe I should just ruin this for her by telling the others about tonight. But..., staying here and working on our song with B.A.P didn't seem like a bad idea. Who knows, we might get the lyrics we need and we also get to help B.A.P with theirs.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwh2iIje37H
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaYZFr3PFE
"We'll do our best," I said.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpfl9bgnNL
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrN7xMebH6
"Yes, I know you will," said Lee as she smiled at me.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujRbuu7jR8
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRdT4zGyBw
We continued on our doughnut feast and as soon as we were done, Lee decided to leave.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtW7WVLkXEu
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslFl4L3qtp
"Well, I sure had a delightful sweet course with you, B.A.P," said Lee as she stood up from her seat.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qcb7N0tfI
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCioyH7bcU
"We all did," said Daehyun.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5C6VICwrY
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntE4ep5xM8
The rest of us also stood to see Lee off. She walked to the door and I followed her.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGy0BwiZFC
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcz03dJRfYC
"It's a pleasure meeting you, guys," said Lee as she turned to look at everyone else in the room.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ghYByZpYI
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPGQ6mhuEY
"The pleasure is ours," said Himchan.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG51cLJhBV4
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgN82m5oHB
"I'll escort you to the elevator," I told Lee.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziHkrnHOGf
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOdWECp1Ak
"Oh, you don't have to. But if you insist, then okay," she said and turned to look at the other Toxins. "Be on your best behaviour, guys."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVPZNO07tc
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUzSiPrGVW
"Of course, we will," said Christine. "You don't have to worry about us."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKPhQC8N6F
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEKV3p3lZ6
"I really hope so. Come on, Sam. See you next time, B.A.P." she waved at the B.A.P members and they also did the same.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKJUGTbZgp
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wWW17WmZQ
Lee and I walked out of the room. When we were a few feet away from the door, I asked:665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiK62Nfa5Xs
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQzHxVv1vd
"Why didn't you just tell them about tonight's program?" I asked.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqDY7VqGhT
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqFAZdBxE8
"Oh, I just did that for fun," said Lee.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwoh9K3Y78w
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCBwIVYe3D
"No, you just did that because you wanted us out of your hairs for a while." I gave Lee the I-know-your-plan look.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJqV3ED2hp
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGdoIqk6iH
"Wow, you really know me that well." She chuckled. "But you can't deny it; leaving you here to work with B.A.P may be just what you need to make progress on the song."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXigSVTGJ0O
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgLzEKEn1E
"I'm not denying it," we were nearing the elevator now. "Why didn't you just tell them about the invitation?"665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpoILCfYwa
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLpJMtWz6f
Lee didn't answer right away and we soon reached the elevator. She pressed the down button and turned to look at me.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29w217doMk
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrTB0clFcS
"Sometimes you need to motivate people by saying such things," she answered. "It might not seem like it, but you saw how excited they were."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhKEtzLF40
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYd5tVFPlFw
I didn't want to admit it, but Lee's right. They did seem excited, as if they already knew what the reward is.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguwWuptmVt
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCK5wfgV9i
"Ya, I get what you mean," I said.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGzCY3qfu1
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNqUb2KY77
"You'll see. The others will work so hard, the song will turn out great," said Lee as the elevator doors slide open in front of us. "It's good since you guys already have the idea. It will be more perfected this time around."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyF0B6BU04Y
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMt7NLhBtZ
"Ya, I guess so. I better tell Daesung that the program is on, then."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFikiJxDWHH
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvdY4rpPAG
"You do that." Lee walked into the elevator and she pressed the button to the ground floor. She soon looked at me and gave me a thumbs up. "All the best."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NRUYM6aCc
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25NGT5hFmp
"Thanks," I said as I smiled back and the doors closed shut in front of me.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanmWc1O0CA
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Szw0A5Dh7
I made my way back to the studio room and just before I reached the door, I took my phone out and sent Daesung a message. As soon as I was done, I put my phone away and entered the room.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBZFszuoJ0
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BzkIJFuge
"Good, Sam is back," said Zoey.
Time stopped for a second. Just when Zoey said that, I knew something's up and I had to prepare for whatever it is.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxd81vfmzd
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZXGdjDGT0
"What is it?" I asked as time went back to normal and I closed the door.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5FY2iXYSN
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVx3pFQrvOU
"We were debating on whose song we should work on first," Zoey answered.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIXUGt7LqS
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgx3zdcNtQ
Just as I thought. What a bummer.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMrgtkGzOe
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QC45HSxn4
"You guys are discussing that?" I asked.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKg7rKiDad
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPAi5c0Cul
"I know, we're pretty fast, aren't we?" Zelo asked who was back to sitting on the floor.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2QQ6zt2Dt
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwN1ckUtnGD
"Too fast," I said as I slowly approached them. Everyone else seemed to be back to where they sat previously except for Yong-guk whom I found standing with pieces of paper in his hands.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqn3COGei7
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeICaUvnWC
I averted my eyes from him. "So, whose work are we working on first?" I asked.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLjBZjYZ7v
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohi1tjzBKk
"I suggested ours," said Zoey.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKtqRi3YJb
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAofUNiCAt
"But we objected stating that it should be ours instead," said Jongup.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBUthCyu3b
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLt4qwlYaCn
"These guys were about to start arguing," said Yong-nam as he stood up from the floor and came to stand next to me. "So, I had to calm them down."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KuICirjiQ
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYrs7GOkNF
The corner of my lips went up into a smile. "Looks like you handled them pretty well," I said.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLm5oDJzHA
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdMU0jXURD
Mike scoffed with his arms folded. "Ya, you can say that," he said without a care in the world, yet I felt a hint of annoyance in his voice.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmOkIYFyuG
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoo1AlE9LG
As much as I wanted to know what Yong-nam might have done or said to them, we had to deal with the main issue at hand. Whose song are we working on first?665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3hFzKwM5w
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTyShyr017
"So, Sam," said Yong-guk, "which one is it going to be?"
"Wait, how come I get to decide?" I asked, sounding surprised.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOusKVnzJi
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8D03wkuLCO
"Because we know you'll make the right one," said Christine.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAcE5B1uyF
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Tf9CinQfB
I raised my eyebrow. I hate it when I'm the one who gets to decide.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv38B2ZB2VV
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxvCxoYjIw
I scratched my head as I began to think. Both groups here are struggling to come up with lyrics for their song, so which should be worked on first? If I suggested ours, as much as B.A.P have us as their guests since we bought ourselves here, didn't seem bad at all. But B.A.P had the idea to offer us help with our song first.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDs8xYwjayi
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nesB9PjyU
"I've decided," I said as I dropped my hand from my head. "We'll work on B.A.P's song first."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CYcy1Fauz
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxYgni28y1
"Uuh?" Daniel and Zoey looked at me with shock in their eyes.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGy7Kpnwvb
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMm5PK6GtgT
"The fact that they are the ones who thought of all of us helping each other, I don't see why they can't have their song worked on first," I said as I shrugged my shoulders.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nxWn6O8Jl
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbO4gzMu5Ox
"Very wise decision," said Yong-nam as he smiled at me.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzculg10lN3
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADNJNdk4b7
"Huh..., that's why she's our leader," said Daniel. "She's brought out a reasonable explanation and I agree."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3JewfST35
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPkeCXRWgX
"Ya, same here," said Zoey, admitting defeat with her eyes drawn upwards to the roof.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw61MZaUg7P
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBNVYSUQBt
Mike and Christine didn't argue either. The rest of the B.A.P members smiled at me that I felt like looking away. Their smiles were suddenly making me blush for some reason.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIasPVe7SmU
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDwwcqK6S7
"Okay," said Yong-guk, everyone's eyes turned to him. "We can start working on the song right now, but before that we have to take note of time since the Toxins aren't going to stay the whole day."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMpRvysf0R
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSfWzZlPrm
"I agree," I said and Yong-nam beside me looked at the time on his watch.
"I'll be your time keeper," he said. "And this is close to 11:00 AM. The Toxins leave this place close to 4:30 PM. So each piece of work has at least two hours and thirty minutes."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PCh3IsZRN
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHvwNWVqtx
"Sounds good," said Himchan.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsQVi5RdY1
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8AciI4W5N
"Okay," said Daehyun as he rubbed his hands together in excitement, "things are about to get interesting."665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEg2UGRrZY
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0fub5BMed
"They sure are," said Mike. This time he looked ready for anything.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsogqRSl1f
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOO5gp1Y4rn
The whole room had a different atmosphere to it. I could tell everyone's excited and geared up. This would be a great experience for some of us. We, Toxins already worked with BigBang on our single. But now we get to work on two songs and with a different group too.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3ZXOAgy7I
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5LzoAbcJ9
I turned to look at Yong-guk. His eyes found mine and he seemed to have read my mind as we both smiled at each other.
"Let's get to work," I said.665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfvP9gibr6
665Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxkIfrqEMT
Those of us standing came to join the others round the table. And in no time, the work begun.
