“It’s just a sprain that will heal in a day or two,” said the handsome, male Korean doctor who wore a causal blue golf shirt with white chinos and matching white canvas.

Before the doctor and Lee could turn around to leave the lounge, Daniel and I quickly left our spot at the entrance of the lounge and silently ran down the hall, and entered one of the rooms with the door slightly open to peak in the hall.

The five of us all started to talk at random, saying that we didn't know why she left and that we didn't do anything. A look of confusion soon over Collins and he soon raised his hand to indicate that we should all stop talking.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJ0St0jARY

In ten minutes, we were already downstairs in the cars arranged for us. The five of us Toxins, Lee and Collins were in one car while the security detail were in two other cars behind us.

“Lee’s right,” said Collins. “The issue with Jehan wasn’t supposed to happen, but it did because we didn’t take a whiff of what’s going on. We let it slide, but this time around, I don’t want any of your silly plans taking course. Is that clear?”403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmqbsh3g35

"I'm worried about GD," said Seungyoon. "Did he make it out of there in one piece?"403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoGymdIosD
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNo60bPnUi
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHmdAHzXQQ
"If anything happened to him, we would’ve known about it already," I said.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5VhU0HIcO
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7Ne8BXOLp
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYRbmVC7tz
"True," said Lisa. "You don't mind if I try and call him, will you?"403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DTw2iwUZQ
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYf6zRe9Mqd
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTh6qTAFHk
"I guess," I turned to look at Zoey who already had her head turned to look elsewhere. "Zoey is way more upset than we are, though."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihgsco224T
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7lw1gXo6N
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9Ip04yBA7

Lisa pulled out her phone from her fancy blue purse and called G-Dragon. She even made sure to put the phone on loud speaker for everyone to hear.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7yKfZDtpq
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0I0T5NuzNm
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLR00AfTD1T
His phone on the other end started to ring. We all waited in silence for what felt like a minute when Zoey said:403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVi75uGgdq
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CN1uoicTv
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQN47dZ6c1d

403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhzSHVj7X1
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEcjRM4SXs

403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpB0E6Ti220
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7RSndnhPH

403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JchaAUkPG
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19hFZQaoVq

There came a knock at the door. We told the person to come in. It's Lee, and she came in with someone: Bang Yong-guk.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡauSqywZyn6
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbBRKo4eqL
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4fIiZPfhi
"Yong-guk, you're here!" Zoey exclaimed as she shot up from her seat and went straight for him.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mYjuiyXI8
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VoQabkxfQ
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf38dBUKs79
"Hey, Zoey," Yong-guk nervously greeted her, stepping back a little so that he wouldn't bump into her.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPH9c3nIOW
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT80GGo1YXp
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAIDtmaBsN
"Well, you're rather jumpy today," said Lee as she looked at Zoey with an eyebrow raised.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFogEY45hV1
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7b6MclGJ7z
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Bblvdg5cq
"You should've seen her when we were talking about G-Dragon just now," said Seungyoon. "She looked like she would punch someone."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFH5uJmfph
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMf4pCJVNq
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0JZ6sDJrI
"Hi, Yong-guk," I said as I stood up from my seat and also approached. "For a second there I thought you weren't coming."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4bYX6uzyw
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oOLIKVFBe

403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dQiY5inLN
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBenfeGKUE
I felt someone quickly rush up to me standing by my side. And in the process, pushing me a little. I held my ground so that I wouldn't find myself falling over.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmXW6EymG3
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgQNRTvPmx
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5bpEEfc9W
"Hello," Seunghoon greeted Yong-guk in Korean. I raised an eyebrow as I realised that he had his arm around my neck. I didn't want to admit what I'm seeing, but it couldn't be helped. Was he trying to mark his territory when he didn't have one?403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLxEqgeqsV
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGXNI9tJzE
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaV1iC3n8d
Yong-guk greeted him back and by the look on his face, he didn’t seem intimidated by Seunghoon at all.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnBoPQPzNZ
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTRYv4nfuj
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fIEGDUsNh
Everyone else came over to greet Yong-guk. Lee told us to settle down for the managers and the music producer assigned to help with our album will be arriving any time soon. We did likewise. And members from both Blackpink and WINNER couldn’t help but ask Bang Yong-guk some questions about the song.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd97VB7GKDu
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqjHbvlVDP
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytQnNEmvQU

403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ErLBX7nhA
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxHczBhM0T
"One at a time, people," I told them. I sat in between Yong-guk and Seunghoon, and boy did it feel uncomfortable.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3MCYFlAlG
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9VlFOOjjK
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEEfD2KZLi
Yong-guk chuckled. "I don’t mind at all," he said.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9Fm9kRvY5
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnzoYm3aLp
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uTsV2RusL
"You don’t have to worry about him," said Seunghoon as he leaned in a little closer on my shoulder. "He can take care of himself."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezxm2ITRS7
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEcZOrzGXy
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mMukZAlpY
I rolled my eyes at him and he gave me that cute boyish smile. I couldn’t hold my laugh.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YiOzcGQXl
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWntXAifaZ
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡis5WDvZRTI
"Do you've the track with you?" Lisa asked. "Maybe we can listen to it a little before the managers get here."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhLLacyC4b
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqbtpcKZD4
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHBLjgUr43
"Not when I’m around," said Lee who stood in the corner of the room. For a minute there we forgot that she is still around.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxESuc7GRN
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlVyuii3Fy
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGtiW7G5Zu

403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAUxZN2Mqm
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5afR55cHLK
"Well, I’ve been told to watch over you," said Lee. "You might do something funny like you were about to just now."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAefduzPct
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeet7f2JDc
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCf3qDFd3FV
"No we weren’t," said Zoey and Christine at the same time.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHNQngRr7R
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyXiU6Behk
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2R95Z8R9d
Lee gave them a look that made them stare at the floor. The managers better get here soon. I could tell just how anxious everyone is that they can’t wait to hear the song.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmBX5KYbsw
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIRvxAmPtE
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTsGf0NHsI
"They will be here soon, so I don’t understand why you’re impatient," said Lee.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRThYtWE4W
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuirze3IhSy
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjwFN3EtVy
"I agree," said Yong-guk. "Let’s all just wait."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OfD8TgxeV
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxeluzKFKS
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODoUkuuNSJ

403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScam5nAhvu
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78tCRUQ0Lg
We didn’t have to wait any further as there came a knock at the door and Lee told whoever was there to come in. The two managers and a man who I think is the producer, walked into the room. We all stood up and bowed our heads.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSGmSsJKRn
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHKi0l57p3
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeJBL3LE3N
"Sit down everyone," Yang Hyun-suk instructed and we did likewise. "I see everyone is here. I’m also happy to welcome our visitor, Bang Yong-guk."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT87zj8wAip
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzPFUZHqy6
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1rNWrxMwb
Bang Yong-guk stood up from his seat and bowed to the managers and the producer. He also thanked them for inviting him to the studio. Yang Hyun-suk also introduced the man who stood beside Collins as the producer who will help out with the album.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlN8UEXhNW6
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2g80U9E0N
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPnglq03FB
"Okay, without further ado, we can dive right to what we came here to do," said Yang Hyun-suk. He started to make his way to the console and the music booth.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkFq7XMlI5
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EV7ymtbna
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP07xZgndu7
When we stood up to follow the manager and the producer, I couldn’t help but stay still while the rest went on ahead. I didn’t even realise that Bang Yong-guk still stood beside me until he spoke.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWwi2qkngJ
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqv22s4HU8g
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXf6edUz8S

403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDJnwgzDjR
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbdlGjNlww
I turned to look at him, surprised that he’s beside me. "Kind of," I said. "What if its not-?"403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaO5w18GIXx
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ546aFhyznj
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UefogKOlN
He held my shoulders to turn me so I could look at him. I didn't expect him to be so close, and looking at him, straight on like this made me blush.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lnaWRJjlS
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAfG1R5CYK
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaSVLj9ZyI
"Don't you trust me, Sam?" he asked.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKO57UGZ9A
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0m0xTAdoOC
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03yCgW5zTW
I didn’t expect him to ask such a question and I am left speechless. I cleared my throat to say:403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmspOOjyB4
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWaEg0vOzQ
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR71q1eo48h

403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzealJVgRK

403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaeLqheQXy
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOc3GU23GdU
"Come on, let's go," he said as he dragged me along to join the others.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJX0vkQ3hQt
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHQyOZN8EH
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOMrhRw1ia
His warm hand around mine assured me that I shouldn't worry about what’s going to happen with the song. Even if the managers weren't going to like it, it's going to be okay.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRr7Xc5OFqm
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxtcKjFtuJ
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZ4OicF0Gz
I found myself smiling at him. I couldn't have found any better way to calm my thoughts.
