“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.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzsyUp8Uvg

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.

"I'm worried about GD," said Seungyoon. "Did he make it out of there in one piece?"387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5urWWlilBm
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1ol99HeEG
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulZPlheCuC

387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiH9slUvsNa

387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejU4URUZ0O
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYR2dssPhjA
"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."387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66YECM7xVj
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhG2Y1QaT7O
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7cMJSXWKt

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.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eiAoUZVAv
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvmzbY0KX7
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXui8Nm6Zkx
His phone on the other end started to ring. We all waited in silence for what felt like a minute when Zoey said:387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0a8iGk1cV
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbla0JF5BHd
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xp06DnE9o

387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzklGHKtSz
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUUDAWEak8

387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpG7jvh8t0
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ644uoCayHZ
G-Dragon laughed a little. I couldn't help but feel there's something different with his voice.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuopvA5n9S

Lisa quickly cut the call. Zoey suddenly burst out saying:387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRu7AN6gkfg
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgmJ6vHmk8
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKUftLsqDc

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.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuDU7XwBlA
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztOAEa8zjS
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFcbvS4fIk
"Yong-guk, you're here!" Zoey exclaimed as she shot up from her seat and went straight for him.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaQE60bpJX
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQ2elpRlkG
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANgevkSnGB
"Hey, Zoey," Yong-guk nervously greeted her, stepping back a little so that he wouldn't bump into her.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYDPMmv6aj
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGd6ZRRpQDM
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡessGS4dIIq
"Well, you're rather jumpy today," said Lee as she looked at Zoey with an eyebrow raised.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfLqS7j6iJ
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacUWJN9Ka8
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdNekFQH2r
"You should've seen her when we were talking about G-Dragon just now," said Seungyoon. "She looked like she would punch someone."387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmu7ZFWXHk
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulbW8gOqiM
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjaRbmnP27
"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."387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYVwkqvhNQ
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJkUM0rJKT

387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQUKCXir9c
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.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtq3z17Kvo
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKs1qi2eaD
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3K11uZs2T
"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?387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDHujRPT49
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRGOWS6eqw
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQfyOKZmel
Yong-guk greeted him back and by the look on his face, he didn’t seem intimidated by Seunghoon at all.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbEmIVbjgq
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDIBfWKmcf
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkoPXJzk81
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.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kM8ruGqG7
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxH2uvWkCxh

"I just want to ask how you were able to come up with your amazing songs," said Mino.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu06E82JXE7
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzxVOyycob
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbp5YBUoxK
"One at a time, people," I told them. I sat in between Yong-guk and Seunghoon, and boy did it feel uncomfortable.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nJ5an98bw
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SjjeQ8TVt
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9KcoqQpFs

387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIjfTqtWMY
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUL1NBTOaLv
"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."387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZo92pbeD2
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7ZR7QGqZz
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzkYbyqtKD
I rolled my eyes at him and he gave me that cute boyish smile. I couldn’t hold my laugh.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSEMnhf2RC
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghFZi0Dx9R
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8wzpua8A6
"Do you've the track with you?" Lisa asked. "Maybe we can listen to it a little before the managers get here."387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9y4t6CuCM
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlfPUATBiK
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1YhS6sVuY
"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.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yrGnS73QY
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTfA3i6tlU
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOpA1zQ70v

387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjI7WpJM6A
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelGcmSnaBz
"Well, I’ve been told to watch over you," said Lee. "You might do something funny like you were about to just now."387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtAiFR830r
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0yUCYQihD
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsIvEGmGoy
"No we weren’t," said Zoey and Christine at the same time.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWb9UTNHTcw
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWoErlNpu3
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnjJivibUs
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.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhVWX4hxtY
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoIJoMm8SE
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQi5kdqCMZK
"They will be here soon, so I don’t understand why you’re impatient," said Lee.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWp3gsI3G0
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hSSAn1oJW
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhiuIlOJZp
"I agree," said Yong-guk. "Let’s all just wait."387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwvY4jgGL0
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7qKFYjHV0
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkzBHtXnkY
"They better be," said Jinwoo. "My ears are just itching to listen."387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvai6oibSY
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIIjXTvStL
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlFuLvOl6j
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.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCi8OEuqFz2
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkPxT5rXL7
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtCVFjinZ8
"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."387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hfAvcB4kH
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4iWFbsEIys
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZCt4uP5tp
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.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxiUkCTQpdo
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAz9KuaNkq
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwFdPonaCG
"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.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqz47kFfto
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLjiye69DY
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVY1M4mAGnc
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.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXI2yu8eVBa
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgh3YZz1dv
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMb7yUNV2th

387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNt9r8EDUp
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuMMHffMsD
I turned to look at him, surprised that he’s beside me. "Kind of," I said. "What if its not-?"387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2A5LXb38Vy
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5D8SE0WdR8
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOQPQdZAxV
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.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsOxt0UEAK
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXmZq5mCJo
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Wsipb0nVS
"Don't you trust me, Sam?" he asked.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfJqaF4VlG
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jFMe92P4u
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjSa4bgjx9
I didn’t expect him to ask such a question and I am left speechless. I cleared my throat to say:387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVJLVxLbNK
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWzPMFDUMY
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRQyaYjBFf
"Yes, I do."387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7mvWQoeMv
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlmxTsu8kU

He smiled at me and dropped his hands from my shoulders. He quickly held my hand.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PW14QNUAQ
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGwbxN8n3H
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2LlQEQpan

387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlAUJl2uIC
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90KmtwycTd
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.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbTpoT7oq5Z
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlnhq0MRRe
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fYXFa2kZg
I found myself smiling at him. I couldn't have found any better way to calm my thoughts.
