The water felt like a 699Please respect copyright.PENANA3RUtL0ds32
safe haven and I didn't want to get out. For some reason, it felt so 699Please respect copyright.PENANA1icbQaFJHG
warm and nice. I didn't want to go above the surface and face all the 699Please respect copyright.PENANARCcCcgHCwS
troubles out there. But I couldn't stay in water forever. That's 699Please respect copyright.PENANAaBJFl9luE6
obvious. I didn't want to die in here and sooner or later, I had to 699Please respect copyright.PENANA9KQIPAY4Su
breathe. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAfnpwmX4Why
I pushed myself upwards 699Please respect copyright.PENANAnQspclWxMb
and my head stuck out of the water's surface. I took in a deep breath of699Please respect copyright.PENANApdXKdrkmmV
fresh air and I shook my head to shake the water out of my eyes. I 699Please respect copyright.PENANAEpMNZxJkFh
opened my eyes fully and as I looked around the pool, I swam to the 699Please respect copyright.PENANAq1bhXBwoiQ
edge.699Please respect copyright.PENANA306sRmJnG7
When I finally got myself out, I saw Hyo-rin, Seungri and TOP run towards me. Taeyang and Daesung also appeared.699Please respect copyright.PENANA3bDUAifexs
"Sam, are you okay?" Hyo-rin asked, when she got closer.699Please respect copyright.PENANAfzdhWbcA2o
"I've never been better," I answered as I looked at myself.699Please respect copyright.PENANAtfOR5e208F
I looked ridiculously 699Please respect copyright.PENANAUqKvuewVTq
wet, that's for sure. My clothes felt so heavy. I pulled out my phone 699Please respect copyright.PENANAZYOKqiEwNK
from the pocket and it was all wet and ruined. I sucked my teeth in 699Please respect copyright.PENANApy9MdZbYlo
irritation. So much for having a cool fancy iPhone only to find it 699Please respect copyright.PENANA45Y1y1yRbk
taking a dive with you into the water. I put my phone back in my wet 699Please respect copyright.PENANAvXKGQlNYxw
pocket. My day couldn't get any better than this.699Please respect copyright.PENANAPuG3PXDVW1
I looked around me and 699Please respect copyright.PENANA0gjbg1muRc
luckily, the little drama I had had with G-Dragon at the top of the 699Please respect copyright.PENANAtKlW6LC7M0
rocks, hadn't caught so many people's attention, but only to a few of 699Please respect copyright.PENANAOsE2NLNj2U
those who were in the same pool I had fallen in. That was a relief. The 699Please respect copyright.PENANANOcPS3QVyz
last thing I wanted was to look embarrassed in front of the whole world.699Please respect copyright.PENANADX1pcRSudX
"You need a towel," said TOP. "You're soaking wet, and you need a change of clothes too."699Please respect copyright.PENANAfkeLpMvZ5v
"No need," I said as I started to remove my wet sneakers and water poured out of them. "We've to go."699Please respect copyright.PENANAQuLN1apkib
I heard Zoey and the 699Please respect copyright.PENANA5MuvwhqR6L
others' laughter and cheering on the other side of the pool. I looked on699Please respect copyright.PENANAt1jAe56mcv
and I saw the others approach G-Dragon after he climbed down the rocks.699Please respect copyright.PENANA7dE9uOqfgi
They surrounded and cheered for him as though he was a hero. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAFsNC7YMLr1
"Sam?" I heard Taeyang's699Please respect copyright.PENANAkyQp3sYYA2
voice as he held my shoulder. "You don't look okay at all. And you 699Please respect copyright.PENANAgQzZMUj9MW
really need a change of clothes or else you're going to catch a cold."699Please respect copyright.PENANAPbtb7G4aiU
"I already told you, I'm699Please respect copyright.PENANAvO8uaHT02G
fine," I said as I slowly brushed off Taeyang's hand from my shoulder. I699Please respect copyright.PENANAEYu28K7i3V
didn't want to be rude, but I was so not in the mood for consolation 699Please respect copyright.PENANArvzPCYImTZ
from anyone.699Please respect copyright.PENANAIm5WXtdml3
I made my way towards GD699Please respect copyright.PENANAOcaUp8fhvv
and the others, while they were chattering on with excitement over what699Please respect copyright.PENANAa70zAUoqGw
had happened. Hyo-rin and the rest followed behind me. As the Toxins 699Please respect copyright.PENANACIb3SmBU7J
and G-Dragon saw me approach them, Zoey came forward.699Please respect copyright.PENANAOoy0NM964u
"Oh, man, Sam," said 699Please respect copyright.PENANAzWdQJZjD7b
Zoey, with a ridiculous smile on her face. "You should really see 699Please respect copyright.PENANAjtm2KBJIjw
yourself. Sorry for all that, but we had to add a little spice to the 699Please respect copyright.PENANAadaCqhQU4c
game. Hope you didn't mind."699Please respect copyright.PENANAW7UrTuRcSB
"Can we just go back to YG?" I asked, with no hint of emotion on my face. "I've had a long day."699Please respect copyright.PENANAW9PAlBZqqE
"Go back to YG?" Zoey asked with a surprised look on her face. "I thought we were going back to the hotel."699Please respect copyright.PENANAhct3yeeppm
"I told you, our 699Please respect copyright.PENANAfVZ7o4wZBo
managers need us back there. And as usual, you never listen to me." I 699Please respect copyright.PENANA8GZrlG4RNP
rolled my eyes as I soon remembered something. "Speaking of our 699Please respect copyright.PENANAIzStBR99Zw
managers, Daesung, may I use your phone, please?" I looked over at 699Please respect copyright.PENANACeR3Me7vtR
Daesung.699Please respect copyright.PENANA2UsNNsoPuf
"Ya, sure," said Daesung, as he gave it to me.699Please respect copyright.PENANATpxqxTi8Ub
I dialled Lee's number 699Please respect copyright.PENANAwPeJ7l5m7R
and I placed the phone to my ear. The Toxins and G-Dragon looked on at 699Please respect copyright.PENANA2prQM4hgCC
me, clueless. They were obviously wondering why I was making a call. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAf6UAnHgfVY
They would know soon enough.699Please respect copyright.PENANAnaJyBKe141
"Hello?" came Lee's voice at the other end of the line.699Please respect copyright.PENANANOY1KmmaQy
"Lee, it's Sam," I answered.699Please respect copyright.PENANADHrlDykqNb
"Sam, thank goodness, you called. Did you find them?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAjpOehXP0Wj
"Ya, I found them," I said, as I looked on at the culprits in front of me. "Do our managers know anything?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAwezIrBihiU
"No, not yet. But you 699Please respect copyright.PENANANN5Fc8b55g
better get back here quick. I can't keep them locked up much longer. And699Please respect copyright.PENANA0VoELd0a8c
the press have been waiting for you, so you better hurry."699Please respect copyright.PENANARhlby5lzCC
"We'll be there in thirty minutes."699Please respect copyright.PENANAf39YOvKu0n
"Okay, I'll be waiting."699Please respect copyright.PENANAKQf0KDfCvS
I cut the call and gave Daesung his phone back.699Please respect copyright.PENANAfjWIz98dM1
"Wait, Sam, what's going on?" Daniel asked. "Why were you talking to Lee? Is something wrong?"699Please respect copyright.PENANA7fJic1Wom3
"Everything is wrong," I answered, trying to keep my cool. "I'll tell you later. We better go now."699Please respect copyright.PENANA7dUlscHPIJ
"At least tell us what's going on," said Christine. 699Please respect copyright.PENANArQEaMrERMV
"It's best we get to YG first," said Seungri. "We're wasting a lot of time here."699Please respect copyright.PENANAClwRYY8P4T
"Come on. You heard Seungri, we don't have much time," I said.699Please respect copyright.PENANALn0XIVYTDZ
"But you better change your clothes first," said Zoey. "You know you easily catch a cold. At least get a towel to dry yourself."699Please respect copyright.PENANA2x4fnJws9b
I shook my head. I was 699Please respect copyright.PENANAWNN4kVSVkU
really on the edge of losing my temper. But I quickly took in a deep 699Please respect copyright.PENANAV3ou88TecP
breath and started to walk away from the pool and the others in my bare 699Please respect copyright.PENANAIKq1J7eVju
wet feet and carrying my wet sneakers.699Please respect copyright.PENANAM3o62lyidn
After walking a few feet699Please respect copyright.PENANAjeDN3cq7G5
away, I looked behind me and the others just stared at me, with 699Please respect copyright.PENANAyW3ro5crWh
surprised and confused looks on their faces. The last thing I wanted was699Please respect copyright.PENANAioRXksZ7MD
for them to just stand there because they would end up grabbing other 699Please respect copyright.PENANAHOxfMGQoHa
people's attention which I was highly trying to avoid.699Please respect copyright.PENANAAOHlSZXlJL
"Aren't you coming or are you going to run off so that I go looking for you again?" I asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANAkEpm5m4LIg
None of them answered as699Please respect copyright.PENANAN5V4iwtuSZ
they all started walking towards me and walked past heading for the 699Please respect copyright.PENANAwcvIJq2VoE
exit. I stayed for a few minutes from where I stood as I watched them 699Please respect copyright.PENANAFVIhpmZMpa
go, except for TOP, who came to stand beside me.699Please respect copyright.PENANAye4R0gjWhm
"Don't say a word, please," I said as I turned to look at him.699Please respect copyright.PENANAGP3geDJYdS
"I wasn't going to say 699Please respect copyright.PENANA6SPUIDxgDh
anything, apparently," said TOP. "I know you're angry and the last thing699Please respect copyright.PENANATQIy8kaOGn
you would want to hear from me is advice."699Please respect copyright.PENANAYLdv2GlsuY
I turned to look the other way as I now felt a little guilty. 699Please respect copyright.PENANApBCFbxnzef
"Was I harsh on them?" I asked quietly.699Please respect copyright.PENANAL9qB6xi1z4
"To be honest, you did the best you could not to let your anger get the best of you."699Please respect copyright.PENANA5VqOvy9IbI
"I'm still upset, though."699Please respect copyright.PENANAHp0lQCGrKy
"And that's normal. They will understand. You're human too."699Please respect copyright.PENANAWPGTfvdOSE
"Thanks, TOP." I said, trying to put up a smile. "Sorry for being harsh on you earlier."699Please respect copyright.PENANALfIoD2TS2x
"It's okay. You guys go on ahead. I'll go get changed and I'll catch up with you later."699Please respect copyright.PENANAp2f0LLipsR
I gave TOP an assuring 699Please respect copyright.PENANANjW7PvHFB3
nod and he gave me a pat on my shoulder and walked away. I was on my way699Please respect copyright.PENANAwbWA8HF0c8
again and I found myself outside the indoor water park. I saw the 699Please respect copyright.PENANAtGMrd6FmQp
others ahead of me and I kept my distance. I was still soaking wet and I699Please respect copyright.PENANA5z42xdKRyL
started to shiver. It was now in the afternoon but the sun still didn't699Please respect copyright.PENANAyZ7ksOofqd
seem to warm me up as I expected it to. It was hot, yes, but I still 699Please respect copyright.PENANA8IFNpJWUd6
felt cold because of my dripping clothes.699Please respect copyright.PENANAllDOHiTqg1
We all found ourselves 699Please respect copyright.PENANAuqOmtGx9Qd
back at the back gate of the water park. I found G-Dragon and the Toxins699Please respect copyright.PENANAwJX2w3Gft2
all settled in G-Dragon's car. Daesung, Seungri, Hyo-rin and Taeyang 699Please respect copyright.PENANAUhEEbdDRmC
were waiting for me. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAplAD0IBRoA
"Hey, Sam, you don't 699Please respect copyright.PENANAp84ixGWbeg
mind if I ride along with you, Daesung and Seungri, do you?" Hyo-rin 699Please respect copyright.PENANAenanzPZLRx
asked as she approached me to keep the others out of ear shot.699Please respect copyright.PENANAqRRcYkvaTB
"I'll ride with Tae, he shouldn't be alone," I said, giving Hyo-rin a small smile. "Don't worry about it."699Please respect copyright.PENANAOSwIS7xaOq
Hyo-rin gave me a kind 699Please respect copyright.PENANAFgNMHuJFpV
smile and I looked on as she settled in with Daesung and Seungri in the 699Please respect copyright.PENANAp15S4nYBjE
car. G-Dragon's car took off first, then Daesung's. I continued to watch699Please respect copyright.PENANAwvYoJ0lYII
on as the two cars left the premises and all I did was stand in the 699Please respect copyright.PENANADUGg9iPVRX
sun, trying to take in the warmth, but still shivering like a leaf.699Please respect copyright.PENANACWMNwxMWaX
I had my eyes closed 699Please respect copyright.PENANAbzBGVssSRq
when I felt something warm on my shoulders. I opened my eyes and I found699Please respect copyright.PENANApoLpaLMQp9
Taeyang wrap his warm coat around me.699Please respect copyright.PENANAEjY55Xnrlh
"You're really shivering," said Taeyang. "Let's hope you don't get..."699Please respect copyright.PENANAYcTyD85mKl
Before he could finish his sentence, I sneezed.699Please respect copyright.PENANALgwGxG2B9W
"....a cold," said Taeyang, rolling his eyes at me. "Nice one, Sam. Now our managers will get pissed for sure."699Please respect copyright.PENANA1mvkJqBGFi
"Don't worry, it's just a small sneeze," I said as I sniffed. "I'll be fine by tomorrow."699Please respect copyright.PENANAt4Eiz83XE2
"Let's hope so. Come on, we better get going."699Please respect copyright.PENANAMIbmyqGgxb
Taeyang led me to his 699Please respect copyright.PENANAzbUvADHuXK
car and he helped me open the door to the passenger's seat. We were on 699Please respect copyright.PENANAC8ux1fzutA
the road in no time, and as I sat in the car, I still felt cold that 699Please respect copyright.PENANAaeSdAmRphD
Taeyang had to turn the heater on.699Please respect copyright.PENANAupD8MQoxvo
In about thirty minutes,699Please respect copyright.PENANAGNQBgAB6us
we were back in Seoul and back in the YG premises. I found the others 699Please respect copyright.PENANA1Bh1z6ykQo
all waiting for us at the front entrance of the building. Taeyang and I 699Please respect copyright.PENANAwkILhAUayY
got out of the car and walked up to them. I led them in, still barefoot 699Please respect copyright.PENANA8A2VJKWWwK
and surprisingly at the same time, Collins, Yang Hyun-suk and Lee 699Please respect copyright.PENANAvIpb1xReZ7
appeared out of the elevator.699Please respect copyright.PENANAayfr6cXwAV
"Where have you guys been?" Collins asked, as they approached us. "And why do you look so wet, Sam?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAwDl2ri5fpS
"We went to Caribbean Bay," I answered.699Please respect copyright.PENANAoXxdx8AhUI
Lee who stood behind 699Please respect copyright.PENANAn6Del7Jydt
Collins gave me a funny startled look. She probably thought I was going 699Please respect copyright.PENANACPMRwu4khV
to make up some kind of a lie to cover up for the others. But I had 699Please respect copyright.PENANATllhyAW1MS
other things in mind.699Please respect copyright.PENANAupH9r4nalb
"Caribbean Bay?" Yang Hyun-suk looked surprised. "We had things to sort out here and you went to have fun?"699Please respect copyright.PENANA3QQ9R3G1IZ
Yang Hyun-suk sounded a 699Please respect copyright.PENANABtpNTYdb1k
little harsh and the rest of us were quiet. I could feel the atmosphere 699Please respect copyright.PENANAXKSmseRVG9
behind me grow tense as no one said a word.699Please respect copyright.PENANA6BddBSF3Yr
"Well, is anyone going to say anything?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANAYgT3c2Ltey
"We didn't just go there to have fun," I said, with my head down. "If there's anyone to blame for all this, it's me."699Please respect copyright.PENANAcboR4xLY0y
There was an awkward 699Please respect copyright.PENANAcIwRQKnP1A
silence as I felt all eyes on me. Their eyes felt like piercing needles,699Please respect copyright.PENANAgeGoFUX6c4
but I had to ignore the feeling and carry on.699Please respect copyright.PENANAbIDGyJXbyf
"What do you mean?" Collins asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANAuyoWrUgwdR
"Well, I hear the press 699Please respect copyright.PENANAop3BPCYRzV
are here," said Sam. "And I bet they are here over the video of G-Dragon699Please respect copyright.PENANA5Qe3a37H1l
and I. I'll tell you everything from there."699Please respect copyright.PENANAdhARoNfJoF
"That won't be 699Please respect copyright.PENANADmr5QCP1dE
necessary," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We can do all of that tomorrow or some 699Please respect copyright.PENANAXVtUzoqdb5
other day. You look all beat and I don't think it will be appropriate to699Please respect copyright.PENANAbcVZHkkrgj
go to the press looking all wet."699Please respect copyright.PENANAPm7hOqqPmC
I breathed out a sigh of699Please respect copyright.PENANA4avzt7QqL2
relief. Things were simply going the way I thought they would. I just 699Please respect copyright.PENANAbLg90mjWDP
hoped that what I was going to do next would work out too.699Please respect copyright.PENANAGxbEhoC6od
"In the meantime, you go699Please respect copyright.PENANAQ69AjJQExW
to the hotel and get freshened up," said Collins. "We will talk later 699Please respect copyright.PENANAPsSVZzKGs7
on in the evening and you will tell us all about it."699Please respect copyright.PENANAg8iOkUPi1X
I nodded my head in 699Please respect copyright.PENANAR4Nn9LlowQ
agreement. Well, that was a relief. I seriously needed a change of 699Please respect copyright.PENANA8QbGEJ6kfO
clothes as I felt myself shiver vigorously.699Please respect copyright.PENANAyqmRAoKQL2
"Come, I'll drive you to the hotel," said Taeyang.699Please respect copyright.PENANA0ez1muBgCk
"Alright," I said 699Please respect copyright.PENANAe0XMe6wezs
quietly, as I looked up at Lee. She seemed really frightened. The last 699Please respect copyright.PENANAABoDJJ7XS7
thing she wanted was for all of us to get into trouble and it seems like699Please respect copyright.PENANAShWT9qq1dV
I was only making things worse.699Please respect copyright.PENANAVElV6SlV5C
Before I turned to leave699Please respect copyright.PENANAsDK9CT33bM
with the rest of the group, I gave Lee a wink, assuring her that 699Please respect copyright.PENANADy0lcf9mO7
everything was going to be alright and that she should trust me on this 699Please respect copyright.PENANA4ztg3Np2Cs
one.699Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4fLdPpcw2
***699Please respect copyright.PENANAhtZDJCxsd6
I sat on the couch all 699Please respect copyright.PENANAD3SictQ11P
wrapped up in a blanket, coughing and sniffing like crazy as I continued699Please respect copyright.PENANARYxNDGeNUc
staring at the TV. I was watching a K-drama series, "Boys over flowers"699Please respect copyright.PENANAVqsvU917xP
and I was really enjoying it, despite being down with a cold. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAhtPfwO07VS
I had a box of paper 699Please respect copyright.PENANAgd1M0uo2Z5
tissues right beside me and a plastic containing the ones I had blown my699Please respect copyright.PENANAwUiI8nNGKn
nose on on my other side. Disgusting, I know, but hey, it was only a 699Please respect copyright.PENANAMIwhMHzRjL
cold and there was nothing I could do about it.699Please respect copyright.PENANA4SNJAxUnB9
I continued watching the699Please respect copyright.PENANAEpJS2QoPKZ
series when the waiter came in to bring in my warm chicken soup and 699Please respect copyright.PENANAVLVO9Ts2JM
announced that Taeyang had come to see me.699Please respect copyright.PENANANsU0WgkA4b
"Hey, how are you doing?" Taeyang asked after the waiter gave me the soup and left while he came in.699Please respect copyright.PENANAXUfa0kXfKU
"Never better," I said, 699Please respect copyright.PENANAkNnCxQFW8G
sounding funny with a blocked nose. "Take a seat, please. Not too close 699Please respect copyright.PENANAUIilGwBbgu
to me though, I don't want you to catch my cold."699Please respect copyright.PENANAXDHv0ihmAg
"I wasn't even going to try," Taeyang took a couch right next to mine, but far away from me as possible.699Please respect copyright.PENANAZIRipKGdCh
"So, watching k-drama, huh?" Taeyang asked as he looked at the flat screen TV on the wall.699Please respect copyright.PENANAmJJy8Rzymz
"Ya, I'm actually enjoying it," I said as I put in a spoonful of chicken soup in my mouth. Mmm, it was so tasty.699Please respect copyright.PENANAgbdtqlErCJ
"And the others?" 699Please respect copyright.PENANAWtV0Jem3dH
When Taeyang meant the "others," I knew he meant The Toxins. I just rolled my eyes and continued staring at the TV.699Please respect copyright.PENANAKI6fDlXg96
"As usual, they went for practise two hours ago," I answered, not sounding like I cared.699Please respect copyright.PENANA9QERHEE6Cc
"Are you still mad at them?" Taeyang asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANASxpQnZ0lRk
I got the remote and paused the TV. I couldn't catch up with reading the subtitles and Taeyang's question just confused me.699Please respect copyright.PENANAhSBi0kyZ9f
"I don't know," I said, staring at my soup.699Please respect copyright.PENANA9BAeSBthJ0
"You don't know or you are?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAEmaViCKTBt
I shrugged my shoulders. To be completely honest, I am still mad, but then again, I felt like I wasn't and that felt confusing.699Please respect copyright.PENANAgv6b1C7o4y
"I don't know, Tae," I 699Please respect copyright.PENANAAhh0rj806w
answered. "I'm still upset with all of them, but another part of me is 699Please respect copyright.PENANAKEmn1ZeH5f
telling me that I won't stay that way for long and I should just try to 699Please respect copyright.PENANAOI9HEVPQCz
forget all that happened yesterday."699Please respect copyright.PENANAlFF1qFBHCP
"Ya, I understand. They 699Please respect copyright.PENANAWgidj8F1do
never listened to you and you had to carry on with their game. And in 699Please respect copyright.PENANAcUyL501HU8
the end, you take the blame because you knew how angry our managers were699Please respect copyright.PENANAwuapKyTfNm
going to get."699Please respect copyright.PENANAfB83iqkiMg
I looked on at Taeyang 699Please respect copyright.PENANAFU3DHZEfrq
as I sniffed. He was right. Yesterday was tough, and coming up with a 699Please respect copyright.PENANACS9Ql0lA5D
plan to help the others get out of trouble was even tougher when you 699Please respect copyright.PENANAEX96phv6cA
know you weren't only dealing with Collins, but also with Yang Hyun-suk 699Please respect copyright.PENANA4GVVNx8ZbD
who was as tough as nails.699Please respect copyright.PENANAVLWZpHj23p
Last night, I took the 699Please respect copyright.PENANAlQR9iWfJdo
blame and told our two managers that I was the one who decided that we 699Please respect copyright.PENANAKCsAkc8lth
should all go out and the others had nothing to do with it. I told them 699Please respect copyright.PENANANzuWYxRAeF
that the others had insisted on working on the song, but I was the one 699Please respect copyright.PENANAbxntfTvvzK
who objected and made everyone do whatever they wanted. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAnyTXuK8Lsh
Apparently, the managers699Please respect copyright.PENANANqKfIHfxwZ
weren't that mad at me at all. If I hadn't lied on their part, they 699Please respect copyright.PENANAEmAcYNm15L
would've been way mad at the others instead. They were glad I had bought699Please respect copyright.PENANA5HUPubCHWp
these guys back on time without creating much of a scene on social 699Please respect copyright.PENANA3bx1m0ZUuV
media. Luckily, only a few people had taken pictures of us. Most people 699Please respect copyright.PENANAfKJuh2hPHz
on social media were even surprised that BigBang and The Toxins were at 699Please respect copyright.PENANAPLOAUQdUot
Caribbean Bay. Well, at least my plan worked out. What I was truly 699Please respect copyright.PENANAgT1XSR6ZN3
avoiding, was grabbing too much attention from our fans, the paparazzi 699Please respect copyright.PENANAgSIdz1sQcj
and the reporters.699Please respect copyright.PENANA4jBeUtFrtT
After my confrontation 699Please respect copyright.PENANAGrNXgBjNj6
with our managers, I went straight to bed without talking to anyone and I699Please respect copyright.PENANAj3OpdeE4FH
didn't have supper. One, I was totally beat from all that had happened,699Please respect copyright.PENANA1h7ECrimDP
and two, I just didn't feel like talking to anyone.699Please respect copyright.PENANAm6iOm8o7WS
"Huh, I guess am still upset," I said, as I took in another spoon of soup in my mouth. "Especially after what GD did to me."699Please respect copyright.PENANAgNHfZc0sVU
"Ya, what happened was kind of dramatic," said Taeyang.699Please respect copyright.PENANA9KaBLWQtKR
"You saw that?" I looked surprised. "I thought you came later on when I fell into the pool."699Please respect copyright.PENANAxNalwEbTqm
"No, Daesung and I arrived when you got to the top."699Please respect copyright.PENANA0UDTiAZLS8
"Oh," I sniffed and coughed. "Ya, it was kind of dramatic."699Please respect copyright.PENANAtiCuzTveSr
"Have you tried talking to GD?"699Please respect copyright.PENANA3b6uWZIN8q
"To be honest, I haven't699Please respect copyright.PENANAE0ah1JC6Lm
even tried. I don't even want to see nor talk to him. I would probably 699Please respect copyright.PENANAXZZqWvhf4l
slap him in the face if I see him."699Please respect copyright.PENANAlSEZPOjgsW
"I don't doubt that."699Please respect copyright.PENANAr7wOZraxob
"And thank goodness my 699Please respect copyright.PENANAOiTVjgIDRt
new phone isn't coming in until late in the afternoon. I wouldn't like 699Please respect copyright.PENANANy0DDJEFNS
anyone calling me trying to tell me how sorry they are. Right now, all I699Please respect copyright.PENANAXC7ofJXleu
want to do is watch some TV."699Please respect copyright.PENANAET0K2uHo0I
I quickly drank my 699Please respect copyright.PENANANO5e3kJn3z
chicken soup from the bowl. And my goodness, the cooks here really knew 699Please respect copyright.PENANABt3yusFCr6
how to make lovely soup. I would probably order for it again if I had 699Please respect copyright.PENANAIuq1bXh0ng
to.699Please respect copyright.PENANA1Xar24H8xb
"So, how are you and Hyo-rin?" I asked, after putting the bowl aside.699Please respect copyright.PENANAz5Z149oNAH
"Still not talking to each other," Taeyang amswered as he leaned back on the couch and stared at the ceiling.699Please respect copyright.PENANAMcbcQkwt2U
"Looks like I'm not the only one not talking to people, aren't I?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAq1iaoCX2zJ
"Nope."699Please respect copyright.PENANAQxjQpqqQRC
I stared at Taeyang as he continued to look at the ceiling as I thought of what to say or ask next.699Please respect copyright.PENANArWtMfcsCQK
"What really happened to you two yesterday?" I asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANABT3WlLur9W
Taeyang didn't say 699Please respect copyright.PENANA9MFbrEcWRc
anything at first. Then he breathed out heavily and said, "what happened699Please respect copyright.PENANAHfoGRipfEG
to us happens to every other couple, Sam."699Please respect copyright.PENANAXBlek2EaeV
"I know you fought or 699Please respect copyright.PENANAwU6dwv3hmV
probably had an argument. I just want to know what it was all about. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAgXEYJ1h6o9
That's if you're willing to tell me. I won't push you if you don't."699Please respect copyright.PENANAqk2czeNmHK
I noticed Taeyang smile 699Please respect copyright.PENANAHCDqcu0Bhr
while he continued to look upwards. It was probably over what I had 699Please respect copyright.PENANAWW55z95In2
said. I was not one who liked to push people over talking about their 699Please respect copyright.PENANAr7O1H1zksN
problems. I wasn't like Zoey who always got away with such things.699Please respect copyright.PENANA0QUVxHxVuz
"Aren't you going to say anything?" I asked Taeyang who continued to smile.699Please respect copyright.PENANA1cjZu7OQWI
"I'm just wondering why some things you wish for never come to pass."699Please respect copyright.PENANADiKMYNGBzV
I raised an eyebrow this time around. Was he diverting the question or was he talking in riddles now?699Please respect copyright.PENANADnumSWGGcM
"I thought I was the only one who is sick today," I said rolling eyes.699Please respect copyright.PENANAUTIMvcimXj
"Don't mind what I just said," said Taeyang, as he looked at me. "It's nothing."699Please respect copyright.PENANAYMgfE8qvx4
"Mmm, figured. If you don't want to say anything, it's fine by.."699Please respect copyright.PENANAXmaiQNFWbE
Before I could finish my699Please respect copyright.PENANAQDnnNswpfI
sentence, I sneezed. Like, really loud. There was silence at first 699Please respect copyright.PENANAqAY4ndCNJp
until Taeyang started laughing at me while I blew my nose with a tissue.699Please respect copyright.PENANAKnZ11rNg4R
"It's not funny, Tae," I said furrowing my eyebrows and threw the used up tissue in the plastic.699Please respect copyright.PENANAyDGwPHvBqU
"You sound funny when you sneeze. That's why I laughed," said Taeyang, giving me his eye smile.699Please respect copyright.PENANA7jOft8niNz
"Well, it's good I made you laugh then. Just like me, you haven't been smiling at all since yesterday."699Please respect copyright.PENANAJnHvJvfwKX
"Looks like the two of us really have a lot in common when things don't go our way."699Please respect copyright.PENANAyffIkZVQBx
"Yep, cheers to that." 699Please respect copyright.PENANAbI9N5JUZCx
"So, have you thought of any lyrics for the song yet?" Taeyang asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANAW6BYsfspEp
I slapped my face. I had completely forgot about the song since I was running up and down the whole of yesterday.699Please respect copyright.PENANAXOoFWUxTQQ
"I completely forgot," I said, as I sniffed. "Weren't you guys supposed to work on it today?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAoTv6DtlSQ7
"We can't work on it without you," said Taeyang. "You and G-Dragon decided that the both of you would work on it together."699Please respect copyright.PENANA6tStiiIv63
"Don't mention his name because I feel like breaking something."699Please respect copyright.PENANAWslqKRlpF3
"Wow, that sounds personal."699Please respect copyright.PENANAnZSVS2SaFm
"Ya," I nodded my head. "It really is."699Please respect copyright.PENANAY6DvB0G4G6
"Then how are the two of you going to work on the lyrics if you're still angry at him?"699Please respect copyright.PENANA8q2qgsQkD4
"I think I've a better 699Please respect copyright.PENANAhKvSIPC3X3
idea. Let's all just work on the song together. I may be the songwriter 699Please respect copyright.PENANAIQefH8coGi
in my group, but I always give a chance for others to bring in their 699Please respect copyright.PENANAMwNaCVQ7c9
lyrics. It's better that way."699Please respect copyright.PENANAYLAjCvmldp
"That's not a bad idea. Aren't you going to tell GD about it?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAQ89g5yzThG
"Uh, no. Until I'm no longer mad at him, you will have to act as my middle man."699Please respect copyright.PENANA6FOePauZ5G
"Me? Your middle man?" Taeyang burst into a fit of laughter. "That's going to be classic."699Please respect copyright.PENANA5k9kA79Yw7
"You should be honoured. Most people would die just to be my middle man."699Please respect copyright.PENANAhBrMa3kGWS
"I wouldn't. FYI, I'm a pop star just like you and people would die just the same."699Please respect copyright.PENANAtdJSBUytRi
"Haha, good point."699Please respect copyright.PENANAIxIeC1MGto
Taeyang and I continued 699Please respect copyright.PENANAa4h2gBKHA1
to talk for a good thirty minutes and it was so much fun. I was glad he 699Please respect copyright.PENANAD8oaMDigYY
came to see me because life tends to be boring sometimes when you're 699Please respect copyright.PENANA8BkWehnaJV
alone. Apart from talking about the events that took place yesterday, we699Please respect copyright.PENANAxXvTfx9fUM
talked about other fun things concerning our personal lives. Mostly 699Please respect copyright.PENANAVbSeaxl9Sl
focusing on the funny things that goes on whenever we were with your 699Please respect copyright.PENANArrPz6CK7a1
group members. I mostly talked about Zoey, since she always creates 699Please respect copyright.PENANAQUKa4M32ZN
drama in my life, while Taeyang talked about Seungri, who always got 699Please respect copyright.PENANAvF7SY3AO4Z
into trouble since he was the "maknae" (막내) (youngest) in the group.699Please respect copyright.PENANAstaHUomk2p
While the two of us were699Please respect copyright.PENANASKKnw2Zkwn
laughing after Taeyang finished telling me a funny story about Seungri,699Please respect copyright.PENANAl8tsH8DRkq
I received a phone call from the hotel land line. 699Please respect copyright.PENANARKBnkVlL19
I quickly went over to 699Please respect copyright.PENANA00OiyCPbQN
the phone, trying to calm myself after laughing so much. Luckily, it was699Please respect copyright.PENANAMaFrVa0a89
just the receptionist downstairs, informing me that Seungri and Daesung699Please respect copyright.PENANA4u5ZquERIf
had come to visit. I told the receptionist to tell them that they could699Please respect copyright.PENANA4Xvq7hEohu
come up and I put the receiver down.699Please respect copyright.PENANA3A7kNb8kzC
"Speaking of the devil," I said as I passed Taeyang, going back to my seat, "he is here with Daesung."699Please respect copyright.PENANAgWTdhHItqA
"Seungri is here? Well, that's a surprise."699Please respect copyright.PENANAQf1bBP7a3T
"I'm not," I said shrugging my shoulders. "He's obviously here to check up on me, since he calls me his panda."699Please respect copyright.PENANA9NSwp1P3UV
"Trust me, you're one of his many pandas," said Taeyang, as he smiled.699Please respect copyright.PENANAqdZcg83JOb
"Shut up, Tae!" I threw a pillow at him and he blocked it as he raised his arm.699Please respect copyright.PENANA91lDKamQO0
"Eww, that pillow 699Please respect copyright.PENANA9qqUWjnQqL
probably has your germs on it," said Taeyang, as he disgustingly looked 699Please respect copyright.PENANAGB6H2bPj2h
at the pillow I had thrown at him on the floor.699Please respect copyright.PENANAodfLyA8ZRR
"You're welcome," I said with a devious smile on my face.699Please respect copyright.PENANA4Ec1ap04BZ
A few seconds later, we 699Please respect copyright.PENANA3LBGl6iSSC
heard the sound of the elevator then Seungri and Daesung appeared into 699Please respect copyright.PENANAtAKYPSjTdE
the lounge. Seungri was holding a huge stuffed panda and Daesung was 699Please respect copyright.PENANAdqz5OVg1qk
holding a box of chocolates.699Please respect copyright.PENANAqmmFb9eyZX
"Awww, is that for me?" I asked as I turned on the couch to face them.699Please respect copyright.PENANA0cpFWGy0xs
"Ah, no, the panda is a 699Please respect copyright.PENANAaIuHnwu18T
very good friend of mine and just came along to see the famous B.K who 699Please respect copyright.PENANASj3zLLB3ci
is sick," said Seungri. Daesung and Taeyang burst out laughing at the 699Please respect copyright.PENANAHnGOKvq8hd
same time.699Please respect copyright.PENANADfvElxtrlI
"Very funny, Seungri," I said, as I frowned at him. "Give him to me, I want to hug him."699Please respect copyright.PENANANMeeeAmyLL
"And give him your cold? No ways," said Seungri, hugging and holding onto the panda.699Please respect copyright.PENANARqi7bllFGM
"Do you really want me to come over there and fight for it?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAkvn4Vu0Sax
"I would give the lady the panda if I were you, Seungri," said Taeyang. "You wouldn't want to see her nasty side."699Please respect copyright.PENANA9LgEJfUYYQ
"Hey, I don't have a nasty side," I said, as I looked at Taeyang.699Please respect copyright.PENANAMb07rL4xGk
"Everybody has one," said Taeyang, shrugging his shoulders.699Please respect copyright.PENANAYYhlSHOxED
"Never mind that," said Daesung, "just give her the panda, Seungri."699Please respect copyright.PENANAJiDDllgkPQ
"Really? But he'll be scared without me," said Seungri, still holding onto the panda.699Please respect copyright.PENANAhbQNF8EKrj
"For goodness sake, I 699Please respect copyright.PENANAJGueBJYPc8
know the panda is mine," I said. "And besides, we ladies are good with 699Please respect copyright.PENANAaVpziFmaNS
handling cute and cuddly stuff. Mr Panda won't ever feel lonely or 699Please respect copyright.PENANALFNDuBPdch
scared with me."699Please respect copyright.PENANAy6lojdGFe5
"Ya, I know he won't," said Seungri with a smile as he walked over to me and gave me the panda.699Please respect copyright.PENANAjLLKLrF5yn
I took the panda in my 699Please respect copyright.PENANA6jxj6H3e9n
arms and I hugged and cuddled it as though I was a little girl who just 699Please respect copyright.PENANAqzqLvTyXz9
got her doll for the first time. It was so soft and fuzzy that for a 699Please respect copyright.PENANAr7qbTTpwwa
moment, it felt like a warm pillow I could sleep on. The new smell of 699Please respect copyright.PENANA1y5JF9wOqP
the panda triggered my nose though, and I sneezed so loud, yet again.699Please respect copyright.PENANAnsUaRwqzhf
"My goodness, Mr Panda would need a doctor," said Seungri. "You're gonna get him sick."699Please respect copyright.PENANABUYsV3ZPhk
"He's officially mine now," I said as I sniffed. "We're going to be the best of besties."699Please respect copyright.PENANAuDSOuzw69S
"Whatever, just take good care of him for me, okay?"699Please respect copyright.PENANA5uCXLuphBg
"I will," I said with a smile as I cuddled the panda in my arms.699Please respect copyright.PENANA4biwfRQZUF
"I got you some chocolates," said Daesung, as he handed over the box of chocolates to me. "Every girl's favourite treat."699Please respect copyright.PENANAIwFaKwKSg6
"Aww, thanks Daesung," I699Please respect copyright.PENANAYTNWy7YpxC
said as I smiled at him and I felt myself blush when I remembered what 699Please respect copyright.PENANAdaSN2T7xA3
happened between him and I yesterday at the park. "That's so sweet of 699Please respect copyright.PENANA5FmBMxHb77
you. See, Seungri, you should be a little bit more like him."699Please respect copyright.PENANALOLhZYdLHc
"What did I do?" Seungri asked looking surprised. "I bought you a panda."699Please respect copyright.PENANAET84NnKc59
"Never mind, come take a seat, please," I said. "It's good you two came to see me."699Please respect copyright.PENANAIbNyUTclqm
"Are you feeling any better?" Daesung asked as he and Seungri sat on the other couch opposite Taeyang.699Please respect copyright.PENANAqFsAyKAtyB
"Well, I'm not really feeling that sick," I said, as I sniffed. "I'll be fine tomorrow, you'll see."699Please respect copyright.PENANAkzlxPw1Cb0
"I doubt that," Taeyang blurted out.699Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6RGQxsn0D
"Ah, put a sock in it, Tae!" I said angrily. "You really know how to make me feel bad."699Please respect copyright.PENANA3npqWPYLCS
"Ya, I do."699Please respect copyright.PENANAl6rj57kF6x
While the four of us 699Please respect copyright.PENANAyZUQOIGLW7
were chatting and Seungri kept on pulling funny faces at me every now 699Please respect copyright.PENANAkbT1uq9lRe
and then, just to make me laugh, The Toxins arrived. At first I didn't 699Please respect copyright.PENANAxfE21vIQeB
notice since I was laughing so much, until Daesung looked behind me and 699Please respect copyright.PENANAKw3S16sL9v
said:699Please respect copyright.PENANAxm0ArJDEkG
"Hey, Zoey." 699Please respect copyright.PENANAJLPlulgajC
I stopped laughing automatically and I turned to looked behind me. Zoey was standing in the passage with her training bag. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAyoEx4QB3CR
"Hey," Zoey replied. "I was wondering why there was laughter when we came in."699Please respect copyright.PENANAVaSULyjjxy
"We came to see how Sam was doing," said Taeyang.699Please respect copyright.PENANAKMjSJF13Vl
"It's good you came to 699Please respect copyright.PENANAwv6Hi3CX5z
keep her company while we were gone." Zoey turned to look at me, but I 699Please respect copyright.PENANA9cxS6I9y15
quickly turned away, putting myself back in my usual position on the 699Please respect copyright.PENANAEE20DcNKFb
couch.699Please respect copyright.PENANAfROvqlHPHa
"Hey, what's with all the laughter?" came Mike's voice. "Oh, you guys are here, that's great!"699Please respect copyright.PENANANCnK5dc18a
"Who's here?" Christine asked, also joining the others. "Hey, guys!"699Please respect copyright.PENANAc8tz75Wy8F
"Hey, how was practise?" Daesung asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANASAtylJLy6b
"Tiring as usual," I heard Daniel reply. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAeUSA7G3uay
"We will just put our stuff away and join you in a second," said Zoey.699Please respect copyright.PENANAE1hB2KoFO6
"Ya, please do, it will be so much fun," said Seungri.699Please respect copyright.PENANA7wAzMUOqTu
I tugged at my panda's 699Please respect copyright.PENANAQ1xpLKmVx1
ear absentmindley as I felt Taeyang's eyes on me. I looked at him and it699Please respect copyright.PENANALzrN0q9UxS
was obvious he could read my mind. I was still not in a mood to talking699Please respect copyright.PENANAlE6LQ5krMh
to the other Toxins, and I so much as wanted as to leave the room.699Please respect copyright.PENANA2ga8ZBfizL
The Toxins came back to 699Please respect copyright.PENANAyTOMHTXRUn
the lounge area. Zoey sat next to me and I moved away from her as I held699Please respect copyright.PENANAtIjBE5sXsv
my panda like it was the only thing that ever mattered to me. Christine699Please respect copyright.PENANAmdk1OeIS0X
went to join Seungri and Daesung, while Mike and Daniel joined Taeyang.699Please respect copyright.PENANAod5erBVZCa
For a moment, no one 699Please respect copyright.PENANAP5PP07ytZr
said a word to each other. There was silence. As for me, I kept on 699Please respect copyright.PENANA6XFDyhwQUO
tugging at the panda's ear still not looking at Zoey.699Please respect copyright.PENANAqFiS8DohV2
"Oh, Sam, you've a panda," said Daniel, breaking the silence.699Please respect copyright.PENANAezhVUdX5aM
"Ah huh," I replied dully. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAKGwKomiQ7C
"I got it for her," said Seungri, with a smile.699Please respect copyright.PENANAVf5tchjxLR
"Aww, it's so cute," said Christine. "You should get me one just like that someday."699Please respect copyright.PENANAMKsnYreBfD
I stared up at the 699Please respect copyright.PENANAAzk3GUEonF
ceiling and then at the panda. I got the box of chocolates that were 699Please respect copyright.PENANAaIB61Bo9bD
next to me, opened it and put a piece of chocolate in my mouth.699Please respect copyright.PENANABXpHu329Kt
"And she also has chocolates too," said Zoey. "I also want some."699Please respect copyright.PENANAfumjQOZ13y
When Zoey tried to reach699Please respect copyright.PENANAZdiJiXIK99
out for chocolates, I lifted the box and took it to my other side to 699Please respect copyright.PENANAjjCEWRMM6q
prevent her from getting any. I looked at her as I furrowed my eyebrows.699Please respect copyright.PENANADjUoukYULX
"Sorry, I should have asked," said Zoey.699Please respect copyright.PENANAU3KwYhVNWh
"Ya, you should have!" I snapped at her.699Please respect copyright.PENANA8Sk1nnGTM9
Zoey looked hurt with 699Please respect copyright.PENANAokPXDg78CB
the way I responded to her, but at the moment, it didn't even matter. I 699Please respect copyright.PENANAWorj9TY16k
turned to face the other way sucking at the chocolate in my mouth.699Please respect copyright.PENANAowzaMJzQxR
"Are you still mad at us?" Zoey asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANATvND44WqNs
I didn't answer as I put699Please respect copyright.PENANAUse5WHuben
another piece of chocolate in mouth. My silence was an obvious answer. I699Please respect copyright.PENANAu5m7rAsS8L
was still mad, especially at Zoey.699Please respect copyright.PENANARjk6Hw5Eq3
"I know it's a little 699Please respect copyright.PENANAe1JiXIPCwB
late to say this," started Zoey. "But we're really sorry for what 699Please respect copyright.PENANA69avRK4fCj
happened yesterday. Yes, we didn't listen to you as always and we're 699Please respect copyright.PENANAv2Gcm9kevk
sorry for that too. You even took the blame for us. And I know it 699Please respect copyright.PENANAzbNtAkpNfh
doesn't look like we appreciate what you do for us, but we really do. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAlmHQQsJnkT
You've saved our necks a number of times before from Collins, but this 699Please respect copyright.PENANAd5TiiKgZV2
time you had to deal with Yang Hyun-suk too."699Please respect copyright.PENANAH3KlGRqCS9
I stared at the ceiling as I sucked at the chocolate in my mouth as though I wasn't listening.699Please respect copyright.PENANA0ucBkkLfQ5
"I don't like it when 699Please respect copyright.PENANAI5VzFneC2y
you're not talking to me," Zoey continued. "And last night when you 699Please respect copyright.PENANAs6v8sFqKWk
didn't say a word, I knew you were going to give us the silent 699Please respect copyright.PENANAx5APSCF4G6
treatment. You know you're my best friend and my only source of 699Please respect copyright.PENANA2RSUKhnTgo
happiness everyday. You know I'm not myself without you. I'm really 699Please respect copyright.PENANAGV7w4vhOGi
sorry, Sam."699Please respect copyright.PENANAZ0OKPbrdLX
"We're all sorry, Sam," said Daniel. "I know you're hurt real bad because of our silly actions yesterday."699Please respect copyright.PENANAaCUjtTqCG5
"I'm sorry too," said 699Please respect copyright.PENANAGn0ynkQXfc
Mike. "I should have acted like the responsible one, but we all know 699Please respect copyright.PENANA5pBvypxm34
that's not the case. You really saved us yesterday and all we want is 699Please respect copyright.PENANAHGaUcW9KQK
for you to talk to us again."699Please respect copyright.PENANA1ilHgKnuFF
"I'm also sorry, Sam," 699Please respect copyright.PENANApjmHvF9OTH
said Christine. "We might say 'we won't do it again,' but we keep on 699Please respect copyright.PENANApFPHJpTRzI
doing the same thing. We can't do anything without you. You're our 699Please respect copyright.PENANAnL67J22bTR
leader."699Please respect copyright.PENANAEgXK1AU4P7
I still didn't say a 699Please respect copyright.PENANAzivPUIPuvw
word to them as I continued to stare upwards. I knew it would come to 699Please respect copyright.PENANAk8lsp1UA7D
this, them saying that they were sorry. My hatred for them wasn't going 699Please respect copyright.PENANAms3xA1RTW5
to last forever and I knew that very well. They were family and I loved 699Please respect copyright.PENANAD9AvctwlII
them despite the awful things they put me through.699Please respect copyright.PENANAz6Db0lDrFt
"Aren't you going to say something, Sam?" Taeyang asked. 699Please respect copyright.PENANATyLIX5Dq19
"And what should I say?" I asked. "They know completely well that I can't stay mad at them forever, so...."699Please respect copyright.PENANAWLXen2rkjd
"Wait, you're not mad any more?" Zoey asked, with a little hint of excitement in her voice.699Please respect copyright.PENANAm56IZpqVk8
I sighed deeply and I turned to face Zoey. And I each gave the other Toxins a look as well.699Please respect copyright.PENANAe6gSKr19Wg
"I'm mad and pretty much699Please respect copyright.PENANACNH12OVve4
angry with all of you," I said. "But it's obvious I can never stay mad 699Please respect copyright.PENANAlDkpZn0SKp
at you forever. So, yes, I forgive you."699Please respect copyright.PENANADJN0whrycK
"Seriously, you mean it?" Daniel asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANAeU0VkZUcBq
I sniffed and said, "ya, I mean it."699Please respect copyright.PENANAaXaa2v1Ttl
"Aww, I love you, Sam!" Zoey exclaimed as she tried to come close to hug me.699Please respect copyright.PENANAx0eTjrbn3I
"Whoa! Back up!" I said 699Please respect copyright.PENANAzdbDekKL8a
with my hands raised to stop her from getting any closer to me. "I've a 699Please respect copyright.PENANASWT5y93zQF
cold. Just because I forgive you, doesn't mean you can hug me."699Please respect copyright.PENANA9sLHMB4cPX
"Ah, you! Always acting 699Please respect copyright.PENANAIpv4PTvJxU
like you don't want a hug. Come here!" Zoey wrapped her arms around me 699Please respect copyright.PENANAaXBWVQ8YJH
and hugged me. "Your cold isn't that contagious and I don't care if I 699Please respect copyright.PENANAFAb5PEIXsG
catch it anyway."699Please respect copyright.PENANAnnSsRuKelD
Christine, Daniel and 699Please respect copyright.PENANAb56bNIYdfn
Mike also came over and we were all hugging each other on the couch. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAMpYz2VK7t0
Even the panda got caught up in the hug. It was kind of nice and I 699Please respect copyright.PENANAhCxCBppspU
smiled. I completely wasn't mad at them any more, that's for certain.699Please respect copyright.PENANA9U9tAIO3nz
"Aww, let me take a pic of this beautiful moment," said Deasung as he pulled out his phone and took a photo.699Please respect copyright.PENANA9204DtHCiQ
"I'm glad you guys finally resolved things ," said Taeyang.699Please respect copyright.PENANADBPVTMMbqU
"Ya, I'm glad we did," I said, as I felt my nose twitch. "Can you guys please stop hugging me, I'm about to...."699Please respect copyright.PENANAhJTAKzrCPE
I sneezed and the other Toxins quickly withdrew their arms around me and looked on as though I was contagious.699Please respect copyright.PENANAvaPZ5t53jw
"Excuse me," I said as I got a tissue and blew my nose. "I just can't help myself."699Please respect copyright.PENANATXBtzuNu0c
"Don't worry, you won't 699Please respect copyright.PENANAjlprpg13kT
help yourself laughing once you see this pic," said Daesung, as he 699Please respect copyright.PENANAexZGkxVMSs
looked at his phone with a smile on his face.699Please respect copyright.PENANAdvdQflGhSB
"Please don't tell me you captured me sneezing," I rolled my eyes when I obviously knew the answer.699Please respect copyright.PENANAkb6gvuOQQh
"Ya, he did," said Seungri, with a smirk on his face.699Please respect copyright.PENANA90bHwHpGQD
"Never mind. It's almost lunch time and I'm starving," I said. "What can we order for lunch?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAM7TBmkFkTU
"I'm glad you asked," said Zoey. "You just sit back and relax, my hungry kitty. We already have lunch covered."699Please respect copyright.PENANAxJN9TQTg1v
"What do you mean?" I asked, looking at Zoey with an eyebrow raised.699Please respect copyright.PENANAYOPeLmqE9S
"We thought of having a special lunch just for you since you were so mad at us," said Daniel. 699Please respect copyright.PENANADsQ6X3kE0d
"Well, that's interesting," said Taeyang. "Weren't you going to invite us as well?"699Please respect copyright.PENANABmKS93zlQi
"Well, ya, but surprisingly you brought yourselves here," said Zoey. "We were about to call you as soon as we arrived."699Please respect copyright.PENANAGehH2QXmfq
"We already called the others so, no need," said Mike.699Please respect copyright.PENANAjbVrNGCwBG
At that moment, I had 699Please respect copyright.PENANAdKuVKBdxud
put in another piece of chocolate in my mouth and I almost choked on it.699Please respect copyright.PENANAYCYKxXkEr9
Mike who was the closet to me patted my back.699Please respect copyright.PENANA9kTLQVuxln
"Hey, are you okay?" he asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANASA7TPlqNjr
"I'm fine, I guess," I said, as I held my throat.699Please respect copyright.PENANAyQeL9JIPgq
"This is what happens when you don't share chocolates," said Zoey. "Here, I'll help you."699Please respect copyright.PENANApi3cEbAfSQ
Zoey got the box of 699Please respect copyright.PENANAdfhlDKGMmC
chocolates and Christine went to sit next to Zoey to eat them while I 699Please respect copyright.PENANA8aYv5KsIvp
continued rubbing my throat, deep in thought.699Please respect copyright.PENANA6kb2Qp5vHV
"Can you excuse me for a second?" I asked as I got up from the couch with my panda and left the room.699Please respect copyright.PENANAWAECsZbaGG
I was in the passage as I699Please respect copyright.PENANAovQy1dAx7u
leaned on the wall, close to the door of the room Zoey and I were 699Please respect copyright.PENANAX4sGRrq6fw
sleeping in. I held the panda in my arms and hugged it tightly. I sighed699Please respect copyright.PENANAR7ntiTK067
in what felt like sadness.699Please respect copyright.PENANA8PP2vVXsNL
"You aren't okay, again, aren't you?" came Taeyang's voice behind me.699Please respect copyright.PENANAWa4tJYCEPA
I sniffed and without facing him said, "you already know. I don't have to say anything."699Please respect copyright.PENANAwaaBMkeiqo
I heard his footsteps 699Please respect copyright.PENANAL07FXGDhZF
and I knew he was coming closer. He also leaned his back against the 699Please respect copyright.PENANATs3Jv6nbsX
wall as he stood right next to me and I heard him sigh.699Please respect copyright.PENANAO6v1IBuHob
"Are you really going to stay mad at GD for long?" he asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANApxlIG7j0My
"And are you going to do the same with Hyo-rin?" I also asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANAchSG9pBKhv
"Are we really do this right now?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAvs2bkKtO8u
"Do you want us to continue making each other feel bad about yourselves?" 699Please respect copyright.PENANAKSICGHlpg8
Taeyang chuckled silently and I smiled, still not looking at him.699Please respect copyright.PENANAwIdpEFFyhz
"This isn't working, is it?" Taeyang asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANAEgegBNoHWX
"Nope." 699Please respect copyright.PENANAMoNN8mQXD4
I heard Taeyang take in another deep breath and said, "I really admire you, Sam."699Please respect copyright.PENANAIsjctqcSBY
My eyes almost felt like699Please respect copyright.PENANAD9t4scYSEt
they would pop out of their sockets. He admired me? Like how? Admiring 699Please respect copyright.PENANAzn32GeACEf
meant a lot of things. And right now I felt really confused.699Please respect copyright.PENANAdYFLHYBPMX
I turned to look at him 699Please respect copyright.PENANAEZeItt0RlA
and I found him staring at me. He gave me a simple smile and I didn't 699Please respect copyright.PENANA1Mgq8ZPkoB
know where to begin to ask what he truly meant.699Please respect copyright.PENANAL4QWr2sJS8
"I....uh, what do you, uh.... mean when you said you admired me?" I asked as I stammered.699Please respect copyright.PENANAMwGiKmeMHV
"That you're surrounded 699Please respect copyright.PENANA81eYBIw8Bc
by such amazing people in your life that you're even able to forgive 699Please respect copyright.PENANA9gIqFobeBy
them despite you getting hurt by them," he answered. "I admire that 699Please respect copyright.PENANAgofx3z3BVI
you've such a good heart. You don't seem to hold grudges for long."699Please respect copyright.PENANAj2ZHIWwTSG
"A good heart? Really? I don't think so. If it's anyone with a good heart it's you, Tae, not me." 699Please respect copyright.PENANACqctfbIHEI
"Then if you can see that in me, I can also see that in you."699Please respect copyright.PENANAr42yrrCeTQ
I sighed and I gave Taeyang a stern eye. "So what's your point?"699Please respect copyright.PENANA2Qlx4kKiA0
"That you also shouldn't stay mad at GD."699Please respect copyright.PENANAk83rlyq2V0
"Tae, you don't know how I felt yesterday when he betrayed me and left me dangling on the cliff for my life."699Please respect copyright.PENANAhaW1QxG54i
Taeyang raised an eyebrow at me. "You felt betrayed?"699Please respect copyright.PENANApWjPgxn5ly
"Well, ya." I shrugged my shoulders. "What GD did to me wasn't.....It was so not....."699Please respect copyright.PENANAGU1qrOGC0G
Apparently, I couldn't 699Please respect copyright.PENANAY4ncHMCehp
seem to find the right words. I didn't even realise how I felt when I 699Please respect copyright.PENANAXF8ETsE5Il
talked about this to Taeyang. On one hand I was confused and on the 699Please respect copyright.PENANAMvyx1UTJLV
other, I was still mad I could break something. I was even squeezing my 699Please respect copyright.PENANAxridp3TdZF
panda tightly. If it were a live animal, I would have choked it to 699Please respect copyright.PENANAxD8OSIn3NW
death.699Please respect copyright.PENANA6JIEAj1LSd
Taeyang still looked at me with his eyebrow raised and I didn't like that he wasn't saying anything.699Please respect copyright.PENANAFW9Zh0kLFD
"Aren't you going to say anything, Tae?" I asked, sounding frustrated. "Don't look at me like that."699Please respect copyright.PENANAfpmsAcmN0g
Taeyang folded his arms 699Please respect copyright.PENANAoZYjVdB2gz
and said, "if you really want me to say something, I'll say what I think699Please respect copyright.PENANAxoh829qm3X
and what I'm seeing right now. You aren't mad at GD. You're just hurt."699Please respect copyright.PENANA620uRV7zvu
"Hurt? I don't get it." I felt even more confused.699Please respect copyright.PENANAIWQnYtkgpD
"You're may think you're699Please respect copyright.PENANANNs0nMq7eP
upset and angry, when actually you're hurt. You just said you felt 699Please respect copyright.PENANAE03hIFdOdj
betrayed with what GD did to you. Feeling betrayed isn't getting angry, 699Please respect copyright.PENANAw5TghzqTT2
but feeling hurt."699Please respect copyright.PENANAKo1YVMsBKX
I slowly took in what Taeyang said and I couldn't help but feel he was right on this one.699Please respect copyright.PENANARBWVJGeRHt
"But I wouldn't feel 699Please respect copyright.PENANAa23bnrhmGF
hurt or betrayed if I...." I was soon hit with the most shocking 699Please respect copyright.PENANA0ZcBXQEk2v
revelation of my life and I stopped myself in mid sentence as I looked 699Please respect copyright.PENANAiFvA9y3ddy
at Taeyang.699Please respect copyright.PENANALpiLUHthEA
Taeyang gave me that 699Please respect copyright.PENANAW9L9aFwXcu
look that he already knew what I was about to say. And he probably had 699Please respect copyright.PENANAS39Z4BdqbQ
figured it out a whole lot sooner than I did. I shook my head at him, 699Please respect copyright.PENANAwqZJyJdcmH
while in return, he nodded.699Please respect copyright.PENANAkIqpQegxp6
"No, freaking way," I said, trying not to raise my voice. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAT7dKSDdy2o
"Ya," said Taeyang. "Believe it or not, it seems like you like him."699Please respect copyright.PENANAuqw9PF5U32
I didn't say a word as I699Please respect copyright.PENANAqI7dLYJsIZ
went back to leaning my back against the wall. I buried my chin into my699Please respect copyright.PENANAOVogLpWVJi
panda's soft head not really believing what just happened. The thought 699Please respect copyright.PENANAJPglCTaNpZ
of liking GD clouded my mind. Not only that. What happened between 699Please respect copyright.PENANADftU0iwmRW
Daesung and I at the park really made things complicated.699Please respect copyright.PENANAsPvBwYKSFz
"I guess you're right," I muttered to Taeyang. "But I can't tell for sure if I really like him or not."699Please respect copyright.PENANAWPZfwbk8WU
"Maybe all you need is a little time to figure it out," said Taeyang. "Right now, you're just confused."699Please respect copyright.PENANAmMm1Lxwwy2
"I'm 'really' confused. You've no idea."699Please respect copyright.PENANA5brbFC2JO6
"Did something else happen that you aren't telling me?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAzuZbnmhKV0
If there was ever a way I699Please respect copyright.PENANAsIBZ2aTCjG
would personally give Taeyang an award for, was for mind reading. It's 699Please respect copyright.PENANAKAGRD23JSK
like he knew what was going on inside my head. I wondered if I should 699Please respect copyright.PENANAo0aximLiEI
tell him about Daesung too, but I was saved my the bell.699Please respect copyright.PENANAF5ICpeGYye
"Hey, you two, let's go, lunch is ready downstairs," said Zoey appearing in the passage. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAdQlvZTk2jc
"Okay, let me put my panda away," I said as I quickly disappeared into the room and I left it on my bed. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAJtAtArRxKt
When I came out, I still found Taeyang where I had left him and the two of us went to join the others entering the elevator.699Please respect copyright.PENANAZJRVaX8yhB
"You two are really close today. Are you up to something?" Zoey asked Taeyang and I as we got into the elevator.699Please respect copyright.PENANAxdSRNFpmsy
"No, why do you ask?" I asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANAJAZV40HLHc
"Well, I'm just asking,"699Please respect copyright.PENANARRriIRDATv
said Zoey, as she playfully scratched the back of her head. "Who knows,699Please respect copyright.PENANAbZqOEWZKA1
Taeyang might steal you away from me and become your new best friend."699Please respect copyright.PENANAVBmJnENYOt
"Sounds like you're jealous," said Seungri, with a mocking smile on his face.699Please respect copyright.PENANAvc6azQzPGt
"No, I'm not!" Zoey snapped.699Please respect copyright.PENANAnqpwGuKSc9
"Hilarious," muttered Taeyang, as he smiled.699Please respect copyright.PENANAMgH2NKldSg
"If I knew that's what you were thinking about, I wouldn't have asked," I said, as I rolled my eyes.699Please respect copyright.PENANAoxOjYHsEJX
I pressed the button 699Please respect copyright.PENANAYW8Kczoei6
leading us to the ground floor and the doors to the elevator closed 699Please respect copyright.PENANAqwCwzt2w2n
before us. In a matter of seconds, we found ourselves on the ground 699Please respect copyright.PENANAi541Zhsoid
floor and we all walked out of the elevator.699Please respect copyright.PENANAQiSlDIcMqc
We went to the main 699Please respect copyright.PENANAIvtflAodTj
hotel dinning room and a waiter lead us to the table reserved for us for699Please respect copyright.PENANADThwcz1tqq
lunch. It was a huge round table in the VIP section. There were ten 699Please respect copyright.PENANAPvo4g16mRz
seats around the table, obviously for all BigBang and Toxins members.699Please respect copyright.PENANAYRQrIDGe5S
"Why didn't you invite, our managers and Lee?" I asked Zoey as we approached the table.699Please respect copyright.PENANAV16WlARTFe
"Are you serious? Those guys are busy and you wanted me to invite them?" Zoey asked. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAp4QTGihmdV
"To be honest, we just 699Please respect copyright.PENANAM5wctKZ6lh
wanted to avoid them asking us questions about yesterday," said Daniel. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAeDPrGlgZC8
"We wanted it to be strictly Toxins and BigBang."699Please respect copyright.PENANA1MyGdTlVCv
"Was that so hard to say?" I asked Zoey upon Daniel's answer.699Please respect copyright.PENANAI3TeYAti2P
"Maybe. Let's forget about it and sit, shall we?" Zoey suggested and she walked ahead of us, reaching the table first.699Please respect copyright.PENANACHAdNPkohS
We all got to the table and before I could pull out my chair, Taeyang pulled the chair out for me and I glady sat.699Please respect copyright.PENANAR57ynFBP96
"Thanks, Tae," I said as I smiled up at him.699Please respect copyright.PENANAp6sGVxYzVe
"You're welcome," said Taeyang as he sat next to me and Daesung sat on my other side.699Please respect copyright.PENANAu72C3q02RG
"Okay, weird, you two are getting real close," said Zoey as she sat across the table looking directly at Taeyang and me.699Please respect copyright.PENANA2vuMwNpcz9
"Nah, I don't think so,"699Please respect copyright.PENANA5d8I3BqUHw
said Christine. "Taeyang is just so sweet. I wish I was the sick one so699Please respect copyright.PENANAJ0Hoda26af
he would be treating me like that."699Please respect copyright.PENANAiOnuqLq0Be
"Mmm, I don't think so,"699Please respect copyright.PENANAsQthPbJ00K
said Zoey, shaking her head. "Did something happen between the two of 699Please respect copyright.PENANAupt8YOwWng
you yesterday that I'm not aware of?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAVJrdjNc33Y
"My goodness," I rolled my eyes and sniffed. "Stop making a drama out of everything, Zoey."699Please respect copyright.PENANAHSJ1ueOp60
"I'm not," said Zoey, shrugging her shoulders.699Please respect copyright.PENANAxWweSHuMm4
"Then, stop trying to make one."699Please respect copyright.PENANAVmv1ysVVrC
"Before you two decide to tear each other apart," said Seungri. "Can we please have our food now? I'm starving."699Please respect copyright.PENANApICMPXHPDk
"Ya, me too," said Mike.699Please respect copyright.PENANAwolLZZLwKq
"Wait, we've to wait for TOP and GD to get here first," said Zoey.699Please respect copyright.PENANAVYAPYiA5DK
"Seriously?" Daniel asked. "Do we really have to wait?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAdslZWKuCcc
"We can't really be so sure how long they're going to take to get here," said Daesung.699Please respect copyright.PENANAvZVGdGZZ2K
"They will be here any moment now," said Zoey as she stared at her fancy white wrist watch. "Trust me."699Please respect copyright.PENANAUzMuYVoazC
"Really? Can we just get on with it?" Mike asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANA6WeCyA1Lok
"We haven't even passed a minute, and you're complaining already?" Daesung asked almost in a fit of laughter.699Please respect copyright.PENANAVNWweUhQvb
"Ah, here they come," said Zoey as she looked behind me. "Told you they will be here."699Please respect copyright.PENANA2r8rXdjkLU
I didn't even dare try 699Please respect copyright.PENANAkZt4lnZsSi
to look behind me as I twirled a strand of my hair with my fingers as I 699Please respect copyright.PENANA7i6icOfSlc
coughed. Zoey got up from her seat and ran over to G-Dragon and TOP.699Please respect copyright.PENANAOcRBDnfwYf
"I'm so glad you're here," said Zoey. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAHAVZ1O4zgY
"I'm glad you invited us," came TOP's voice. "How is our patient doing?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAprr8xF6cgZ
"Why don't you see for yourself?" Zoey suggested.699Please respect copyright.PENANAk0yO8tIW49
I heard footsteps coming699Please respect copyright.PENANA7qJRhUpyyo
towards the table and I couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable 699Please respect copyright.PENANAejX0nOfES4
as I moved in my seat. Taeyang must have noticed because he turned to 699Please respect copyright.PENANA7ydUFsEaiE
look at me.699Please respect copyright.PENANAuxGIVXl98H
"Are you okay?" he whispered.699Please respect copyright.PENANAUxZ1raTSZt
"I'm trying to," I whispered back.699Please respect copyright.PENANABsNOsAu6Km
I soon felt strong hands699Please respect copyright.PENANA5J0UTmngW8
grip my shoulders and I was startled. For a moment, I thought it was GD699Please respect copyright.PENANA4ImteKEjDK
until I took a whiff of TOP's musky cologne.699Please respect copyright.PENANAoqm8okroWe
"Hi, Sam," said TOP, as he bent over to give me a peck on the cheek. "How are you doing?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAF78ogiK7bR
"I'm a whole lot better,699Please respect copyright.PENANApknywFR5Zo
thanks," I replied, as I felt myself blush and the spot where TOP 699Please respect copyright.PENANAwHdnLWsU9k
pecked me burn up. "It's nothing serious." I sniffed.699Please respect copyright.PENANAcgq35KRNvq
"Glad to hear that."699Please respect copyright.PENANAAsK2WFjuiW
When TOP let go of my shoulders and walked away to take his seat next to Mike, I heard G-Dragon's voice behind me.699Please respect copyright.PENANAQqUkml1pAc
"I'm glad you're okay, Sam. I thought of the worst when you got sick."699Please respect copyright.PENANAImhrCpObpC
I was planning not to 699Please respect copyright.PENANAwJhRIDhRki
turn and look at G-Dragon, but I did anyway. When I looked at him, he 699Please respect copyright.PENANAYuVLwlPf1i
was staring at me with those captivating eyes of his. I could tell that 699Please respect copyright.PENANAwBBOlATbDu
he was sorry for what he did to me yesterday. I was wondering whether to699Please respect copyright.PENANA3ejJnWgjnI
jump at him and tear him apart, or just let the problem go like water 699Please respect copyright.PENANAnz2ACwn5zr
under the bridge.699Please respect copyright.PENANApl1Gd05a0F
I smiled, at least that was an effort, and said, "I'm fine, GD, my cold isn't serious neither is it contagious."699Please respect copyright.PENANA3qBqrz7zJs
"Wait, you're not mad at me anymore?" he asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANAR81QhX1m6T
I tried not to frown. "Let's not talk about that. I'm starved."699Please respect copyright.PENANA3ED3D02L64
"Okay, then," said Zoey, as she wrapped her arm around G-Dragon's elbow. "Let's sit and have lunch."699Please respect copyright.PENANAkeauOPu5i1
Zoey and G-Dragon sat down next to each other as they were conversating about something.699Please respect copyright.PENANAXDeFRNZn3c
"You know what? At least I tried not to sound mad at him," I said to Taeyang.699Please respect copyright.PENANAtx4wvhRPhV
"Will you try to keep that up for long?" Taeyang asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANAX42bE3qdD3
"If I can manage to have lunch without any mishaps, then I know things will be okay."699Please respect copyright.PENANAc1EWArBtXR
The waiters soon came 699Please respect copyright.PENANAIxcAj1bt8D
and laid our lunch on the table. We first had lovely soup for a starter.699Please respect copyright.PENANAvX7uISYeyr
And since Zoey mentioned earlier that it was a special lunch 699Please respect copyright.PENANARwb2I4177V
specifically for me, we were all served my favourite dish as the main 699Please respect copyright.PENANAb795EZkCcq
meal, Italian chicken terazzini.699Please respect copyright.PENANAxuhk2jQqni
For a moment, I felt 699Please respect copyright.PENANAFgLUHTpMgL
more at home than ever before. A feeling I hadn't felt in a long time. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAttycuxGZPa
Zoey really knew how to make me feel more pleased with her in order for 699Please respect copyright.PENANAljfbbxGPGA
me to forget that I was ever mad.699Please respect copyright.PENANA7HxXmLdKPh
"Mmm, this is so 699Please respect copyright.PENANAA1GUQEB0MX
delicious," said Mike, a few minutes in during the meal. "Now I see why 699Please respect copyright.PENANA0UK1nzZXYN
you like this dish, Sam. It's so awesome."699Please respect copyright.PENANAdV8Gegyugc
"I agree," said Seungri. "And the chefs here really know how to make a good meal."699Please respect copyright.PENANA8EOaVIRNQF
"We wouldn't have had this if it wasn't for Zoey," I said, as I looked at her. "Thanks, by the way."699Please respect copyright.PENANAymwGyzrzVi
"Anything for you, Sam,"699Please respect copyright.PENANAfkK50HFvq9
said Zoey with a huge grin on her face. "But to be honest, this whole 699Please respect copyright.PENANA7vptPq8SR0
lunch thing, wasn't really my idea."699Please respect copyright.PENANAdCNMyjymzi
"Oh? Then whose was it then?" Daesung asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANAS42GCxiad5
"Da, GD. Who else?" Zoey replied as she playfully nudged G-Dragon on his arm with her elbow.699Please respect copyright.PENANAGvG7XzL5jr
I had just taken in some699Please respect copyright.PENANAUhkPuGPVjP
food into my mouth and I almost choked on it, but I tried not to make 699Please respect copyright.PENANAN17Ihgw5qO
it look obvious. I slowly put my spoon and fork on the plate as I slowly699Please respect copyright.PENANAzAvd4XkQOX
tried to chew my food, but at the same time, processing what Zoey had 699Please respect copyright.PENANAdWx7XnUQqh
just said.699Please respect copyright.PENANAwcMNqjSu3d
"This was all G-Dragon's idea?" I asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANAROI1Bfj7e6
"Well, ya," Christine 699Please respect copyright.PENANAZf1g3RWpGk
replied. "You were so mad that you weren't talking to us, when we met 699Please respect copyright.PENANArpkUntj58k
G-Dragon at YG this morning, he suggested the idea of throwing you a 699Please respect copyright.PENANA1sU7H0524f
special lunch to lighten your mood."699Please respect copyright.PENANAhmprUwLe1I
At that moment, I didn't know if all this lightened my mood or just darkened it even more.699Please respect copyright.PENANAWMpC3F13BM
"Thanks for the lunch, 699Please respect copyright.PENANANgZMiZpJOg
GD," I said with a smile, which felt rather painful on my face. "It's so699Please respect copyright.PENANAczoFlkwt0C
sweet of you to have come up with this."699Please respect copyright.PENANAK5WZdwFsc1
"You're welcome," said G-Dragon as he winked at me.699Please respect copyright.PENANAryHbhomRqf
I almost felt like 699Please respect copyright.PENANAxO1KynMnLF
jumping at him from my seat to poke his eyes out with a fork, but I was 699Please respect copyright.PENANA0sLA9KoAUy
surprised with myself when I didn't move a muscle and continued to stare699Please respect copyright.PENANAufh3PnXD3z
at him with a fake smile on my face. Where was all this anger coming 699Please respect copyright.PENANAW0kF7l8Idd
from? And why was it that with every minute that passed, my anger kept 699Please respect copyright.PENANADZ7SkRgwtK
turning into rage?699Please respect copyright.PENANAFKYJa3Un61
Oh, goodness. I needed 699Please respect copyright.PENANALdV3BygIbW
help, that's for sure. I wasn't supposed to be mad at G-Dragon up to 699Please respect copyright.PENANAHIlnfYToNL
this point. But why did I still feel angry and hurt? 699Please respect copyright.PENANAfgx2qEBvbY
I tried to push aside 699Please respect copyright.PENANAHa52XO1ray
the questions and my boiling anger as I stared at my food and continued 699Please respect copyright.PENANAgTVHnP6qi7
to eat. When we were all done with our main meal, we were served 699Please respect copyright.PENANAqulvt9hDcY
dessert. Again, surprise, surprise, it was my favourite dessert, frozen 699Please respect copyright.PENANAj1UWQPNwCG
chocolate moussé.699Please respect copyright.PENANAmlqcJ7SeiY
"Yum, yum, yum," I said,699Please respect copyright.PENANA2K1OEdAsdv
with a bright smile on my face as the waiter laid down a dessert bowl 699Please respect copyright.PENANAq2a4gA0ZNk
filled with chocolate moussé in front of me.699Please respect copyright.PENANAqTLfyJIBd4
"This is the most excited I've seen you today, Sam," said Taeyang.699Please respect copyright.PENANAi22xCmaIQ5
"It's because chocolate moussé is her favourite dessert," said Daniel. "Give her that and she would be your best friend."699Please respect copyright.PENANAKp5sG2UInz
"I'll keep that in mind," said TOP.699Please respect copyright.PENANAMaTWpXxC5h
I didn't wait for 699Please respect copyright.PENANAChCjAmagY4
everyone else to get their own share of dessert. As soon as I got mine, I699Please respect copyright.PENANAnrcE5rc8iB
got a dessert spoon and started to eat the cold dessert. Mmmm, I closed699Please respect copyright.PENANAN1ptQ4NxWj
my eyes as I took it in my mouth and for once, I felt like I was in 699Please respect copyright.PENANAxNgO1Kp6eI
heaven.699Please respect copyright.PENANAxKJJB9mcnU
"This is so good," I said, with my eyes closed as I savoured the chocolate in my mouth.699Please respect copyright.PENANAmXnD4d2Na7
"Be careful though," said G-Dragon. "You're not supposed to be eating cold stuff when you've a cold and a cough."699Please respect copyright.PENANAhcR4DPi6U0
"I don't care," I said 699Please respect copyright.PENANAtSoDt0TZ2I
as I opened my eyes and smiled at G-Dragon. "I would end up with a bad 699Please respect copyright.PENANA1QWS9NQbEO
sore throat and I still wouldn't mind."699Please respect copyright.PENANAlLCHtdaQFn
G-Dragon smiled back at 699Please respect copyright.PENANAY7tRe9lpSE
me and I realised that I wasn't mad at him anymore. It looked like I 699Please respect copyright.PENANAgzeDjfPSEV
really couldn't stay mad at him. And I was glad that all the hate faded 699Please respect copyright.PENANAhSKu9wTSLv
away.699Please respect copyright.PENANAuh4waLpcHj
After dessert, we all 699Please respect copyright.PENANAknK8jcJjV2
just sat there and started to chat. For once, it felt really good to be 699Please respect copyright.PENANAmgUkZ8aEKC
on speaking terms with everyone again. We were soon talking about what 699Please respect copyright.PENANAWgoJqNntBW
happened yesterday. After going through all that and talking about it, 699Please respect copyright.PENANAwwPikkkGvp
it all seemed rather funny and we all laughed about it. Although, the 699Please respect copyright.PENANA6k1nuroSqW
part where G-Dragon had made me dive into the pool seemed to hurt a 699Please respect copyright.PENANACGkeciKbOY
little, I knew I would grow out of it someday.699Please respect copyright.PENANALEF8WJbRlH
"Hey, may I ask?" Seungri asked. "How did Lee manage to keep our managers at YG for so long?"699Please respect copyright.PENANA8emh9Dll9v
"Not sure, I'll make sure to ask her later on," I said.699Please respect copyright.PENANA1FK0O9zZIn
"Yesterday, was just hilarious," said Zoey, wiping away a fake tear after laughing. "We should try that again some time."699Please respect copyright.PENANAs5zMDxLAaZ
"But this time, not at the water park," I said.699Please respect copyright.PENANAwYY6tkHsRL
"Then where?" Daesung asked. "The water park was so much fun."699Please respect copyright.PENANAKRHSNKgym3
"I suggest we try to figure that out later," I said. "We have stuff to do."699Please respect copyright.PENANAX84Ui2yAJY
"What stuff?" TOP asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANAPSjoXOsVsR
"The song. Don't tell me you all forgot?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAkD7rYovnCF
"Oh, the song!" Mike slapped his forehead. "I myself forgot about that."699Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9tFGa2UD2
"I thought both you and G-Dragon were going to work on it," said Christine.699Please respect copyright.PENANAFb7SEKvBfz
"Ya, but I have a better idea," I said.699Please respect copyright.PENANA7KtaczWhIY
I felt Taeyang look at me and I turned to look at him.699Please respect copyright.PENANAfZwv3vlWgA
"Are you really going through with that?" Taeyang asked, as he whispered.699Please respect copyright.PENANA6IpmDwuBcL
"I don't think that's a big deal, is it?" I whispered back. "I think it's a good idea."699Please respect copyright.PENANAxIXYID5EpZ
"Wait, what's going on?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAQYIFx44qs0
G-Dragon asked, as he noticed Taeyang and I whispering to each other. 699Please respect copyright.PENANA7uV05K6TLV
"And what idea have you come up with for the song?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAwBtjFxRwkh
"I thought we should all699Please respect copyright.PENANADMhN9NjNpm
work on the lyrics together. I feel it will be a lot better if we all 699Please respect copyright.PENANAkT9Us3pJNc
bring out our ideas and put them as lyrics."699Please respect copyright.PENANAGrh4GjfyEP
"But why do we have to put our heads together if there is you and G-Dragon who are better at song writing?" TOP asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANA9tT1JrSNMg
"I don't know, I feel we699Please respect copyright.PENANAr23TC4nNsB
have to put our all in the song by coming up with lyrics from everyone.699Please respect copyright.PENANA0fvUJyh7zD
It might sound a little strange, but we all have to help each other out699Please respect copyright.PENANAhCrzR65kim
on this. If there is anyone objecting to it, you're free to do so."699Please respect copyright.PENANAL9IBxCn3SK
"I don't get it though,"699Please respect copyright.PENANAQAb6yUkBIn
said G-Dragon, as he leaned back on his chair and stared at me. "What 699Please respect copyright.PENANAbkcelezuet
made you come up with this idea when we already agreed on who will write699Please respect copyright.PENANAHVZARWz3Uh
the lyrics?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAzHxd4HGjcG
"I don't know, it kind of felt right, I think," I said.699Please respect copyright.PENANAs0cEf4SoWZ
"You think?" G-Dragon now raised his eyebrow at me. "Is there something you aren't telling us?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAWN9iotKqca
This time, I also raised699Please respect copyright.PENANAh0aGG2rqv8
an eyebrow. I had told Taeyang about my idea earlier not because I was 699Please respect copyright.PENANAnykEWoGUAQ
trying to avoid G-Dragon but for everyone else's benefit.699Please respect copyright.PENANA5EVVpOWY5F
"What makes you think I have other intentions?" I asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANAOLifUlF3Xw
"Maybe you might still be mad at G-Dragon," Zoey blurted out.699Please respect copyright.PENANAlVzIs67FvA
I sighed. Great! These were the times you wished Zoey never had such a big mouth.699Please respect copyright.PENANAPpUB80eEts
"Is that true? Are you still mad at me?" G-Dragon asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANA8dq1JjohnH
"No, not any more," I answered. "At first I was, but now I'm over with what happened yesterday."699Please respect copyright.PENANAo6PVvMryJn
"Or are you still mad that you don't want to work on the lyrics with me?"699Please respect copyright.PENANA10srJoJ82i
By the way G-Dragon 699Please respect copyright.PENANA26uy4R4aHy
spoke, I could tell he was hurting. But it was pretty hard to try to 699Please respect copyright.PENANAReRRKHqymO
convince him that yes, I was mad at first and I wanted to avoid him. And699Please respect copyright.PENANAcSvFziMWYM
no, since I'm no longer mad at him any more and that the idea of all of699Please respect copyright.PENANAmqMqTos7PE
us working on the lyrics for the song seemed like a good idea.699Please respect copyright.PENANAxCKtZm9zwi
"I just told you, I'm not mad anymore."699Please respect copyright.PENANALOvUzgBNWN
"Why is it that I don't believe you?"699Please respect copyright.PENANAporGFmnKLb
"Maybe, it's because you're objecting to my idea and you just want to make up what would be a valid reason for it."699Please respect copyright.PENANAzj9VVTeZCi
"Mmm, looking at it through Sam's point of view, I see nothing wrong if all of us work on the song," said Daniel.699Please respect copyright.PENANAPS9CFcWhdN
"Then why come up with this in the first place?" Zoey asked. 699Please respect copyright.PENANAL9jSkduc80
"I already told you, I just think it's a good idea," I repeated.699Please respect copyright.PENANAfH9a5KcwNe
"Well, I'm not up for it," said G-Dragon folding his arms. "I object."699Please respect copyright.PENANA7He2SiHY7n
"Well, you should have said that instead of blaming me for coming up with this as an excuse."699Please respect copyright.PENANAeGEq9LqqjO
"I think you are, and you're not telling us."699Please respect copyright.PENANA8bx3789I8j
"Are we going to go through this again? You just objected."699Please respect copyright.PENANA82XH6kbqKU
"I could go through this over and over again if I had to until you tell us the truth."699Please respect copyright.PENANALehhUJgKkK
"What truth?" I asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANAyAzoNvUtCJ
"Okay, guys this is getting a little out of hand," said Taeyang. "Don't forget, we aren't the only ones here."699Please respect copyright.PENANAuIPApsLtWR
Taeyang was right. I was699Please respect copyright.PENANAECithn6ljZ
so caught up in the argument with G-Dragon, I forgot that we were in 699Please respect copyright.PENANA5lCyTnSY0M
the hotel dining room. I looked around us and a few heads from other 699Please respect copyright.PENANAwfOjh5gCDr
tables turned to ours. It seemed like our argument caught some people's 699Please respect copyright.PENANARdVJX072hC
attention.699Please respect copyright.PENANArGqMcvn1Mt
"Tae's right," I said. "We shouldn't be arguing, much less here."699Please respect copyright.PENANAlfOdjDi5x2
"Then let's conclude on this once and for all then," said Deasung. "Those who favour Sam's idea, raise your hand."699Please respect copyright.PENANABKl6r5RjFo
Taeyang, Daesung, Daniel699Please respect copyright.PENANAHvvF4cSxqY
and Mike, raised their hands. That meant Zoey, TOP, Seungri and 699Please respect copyright.PENANACdGbp8IcRD
Christine were on G-Dragon's side. What a bummer!699Please respect copyright.PENANAmNnjuDI1fp
"Whoops, looks like it's a tie," said Zoey playfully with a smirk.699Please respect copyright.PENANAKgcYNyKyIb
"It's not funny, Zoey," I said shaking my head.699Please respect copyright.PENANAch94c3JNC4
"Well, this just got serious," said Seungri, scratching his head.699Please respect copyright.PENANAReywvng9C6
"It's a tie, so I suggest we..." I was then interrupted by G-Dragon.699Please respect copyright.PENANADf7o3wT7Zc
"No, this time you aren't going to say or suggest anything," said G-Dragon.699Please respect copyright.PENANAmEHbUViJHx
"But I....." 699Please respect copyright.PENANATFTzQEKn2b
"Sam, sshh," said Zoey, 699Please respect copyright.PENANAyaGi7xqgO2
pressing her index finger to her lips, telling me to keep quiet. "You've699Please respect copyright.PENANAWraq0kJZs0
talked way too much, don't you think?"699Please respect copyright.PENANA69kL6hQFXc
That felt like a slap in699Please respect copyright.PENANA1MRT8lUYw2
the face and I felt my face burn up in embarrassment. It looked like 699Please respect copyright.PENANAG7cZ0JfYIL
the tables had turned on me today. At first I was mad at G-Dragon and 699Please respect copyright.PENANA4aQh2tShbb
the other Toxins, but now, I was the one pissing everyone off. What 699Please respect copyright.PENANAzTfraw4F3s
happened to me being the leader? I know G-Dragon was older, but what 699Please respect copyright.PENANA1zktbLfjbu
about what I thought was best for the whole group?699Please respect copyright.PENANANhpBru6vUU
"I suggest we think about it and when we meet tomorrow, we vote over it again," said G-Dragon.699Please respect copyright.PENANAuUSGXprOGK
"That's fine with me," said Mike.699Please respect copyright.PENANASug50xGe9l
Everyone else agreed, 699Please respect copyright.PENANA1VdgjgRxBA
except me since I was told not to say a word. I personally also thought 699Please respect copyright.PENANAEpWgC756K1
it was a good idea to try and think things through. But what if it 699Please respect copyright.PENANAZYkDVKSnpJ
didn't work out tomorrow? What would we do then? I had a terrible 699Please respect copyright.PENANAVqaGIvVUxX
feeling that things weren't going to go as planned and we needed a Plan 699Please respect copyright.PENANAHmmcwxUoTx
B, just in case.699Please respect copyright.PENANAsuYFFLDkEp
"Okay, then, we will meet tomorrow," said G-Dragon as he stood up to leave.699Please respect copyright.PENANA9EXdn7JSae
"But I've something to say," I blurted out.699Please respect copyright.PENANAPoRfK9Ff2V
"Not now, Sam. We will 699Please respect copyright.PENANAwQVzk1VNZc
meet tomorrow," said G-Dragon as he looked at me and walked away from 699Please respect copyright.PENANAd2rPA7hBkI
the table heading for the door. I had to admit, the way he looked at me 699Please respect copyright.PENANACgST4vkgZ4
gave me goosebumps.699Please respect copyright.PENANAivsk1iRwf1
"Way to go, Sam," said Zoey, as she also stood up from the table. "You just made him upset. I need to go calm him down."699Please respect copyright.PENANAvkHsto9Crc
Zoey went after G-Dragon and I sat back on my chair, feeling defeated and powerless. 699Please respect copyright.PENANA8nR9Nmn86S
One by one everyone 699Please respect copyright.PENANAkuCzRgnngo
started to leave the table without even saying a word. It was awkward 699Please respect copyright.PENANACwQyYseE9X
with the argument that had taken place, and saying something didn't seem699Please respect copyright.PENANAAUmPD5j7kP
appropriate.699Please respect copyright.PENANAtmQ9ch9PBY
I was soon left with Taeyang at the table and I looked at him, wondering why he hadn't left.699Please respect copyright.PENANAGP5BoyuawK
"Aren't you supposed to have left by now?" I asked.699Please respect copyright.PENANAAunRvMALJg
"And leave you all alone? No way," said Taeyang.699Please respect copyright.PENANAljN3Sno54h
"Why do I feel like I've just become the villain?" I asked, my thoughts elsewhere.699Please respect copyright.PENANAu46xxmbJPK
"You aren't a villain. You just feel bad that not everyone agreed to your idea."699Please respect copyright.PENANAI9ZpvsVp4x
"It's not that. I pissed699Please respect copyright.PENANAvOUge3EaVz
almost everyone off and that makes me feel bad. How I wish I could take699Please respect copyright.PENANAMJ66FOvJTw
everything I said back. Too bad I can't control time."699Please respect copyright.PENANADd2ddQHYvZ
"You never knew that was going to happen. Let's just hope for the best that it would all seem like one bad dream."699Please respect copyright.PENANA71u7RCYNl4
"Thanks, Tae" I said, trying to put up a smile. "It means a lot that you're still here."699Please respect copyright.PENANAHmPxdIqxMF
Taeyang placed his hand 699Please respect copyright.PENANAuDIubzsNNk
on my shoulder, an assurance that he was there for me no matter what. He699Please respect copyright.PENANAaJ45VhXWZB
smiled back at me and I felt comforted.699Please respect copyright.PENANAH69rKlAq0V
I knew I had to hope for699Please respect copyright.PENANANakMw5yToG
the best just like Taeyang had suggested. But I couldn't ignore the gut699Please respect copyright.PENANAQjfTve67Ew
feeling that things weren't going to run smooth and easy from now 699Please respect copyright.PENANAy9TdhAvZVZ
on wards. Especially now that G-Dragon was angry at me. He seemed more 699Please respect copyright.PENANAjJI4rAjd1A
angrier at me than I was at him. I feared for the worst and I knew this 699Please respect copyright.PENANAvdNndYW3bu
was just the beginning of a heavy storm ahead.
