I was looking out 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA6y6FHzL5JJ
through the car window on an early Thursday morning as we were being 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAQhEp9yVMe6
driven to YG. I felt so much had happened since we got here, it felt 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAYvP1dwbU89
like we had stayed in South Korea for so long when its only been five 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAfcatGYUTrz
days. I already felt homesick and the feeling of going to YG this 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAf6dCTQnQku
morning, made me nervous.1049Please respect copyright.PENANApY0Wosj8kP
I didn't know what to 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAGsp9GPUKkW
expect when I get there. Yesterday was a total disaster and I prayed 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAGgooez0oMY
that today it wouldn't be the same. But deep down, I knew I had to 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAmEXg263Kb9
prepare myself for what's to come. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAjDlk6PtE0t
Although the other 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAaXz6Yow4rl
Toxins and I were still on speaking terms like nothing had happened 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAwNZ5tXItUb
during lunch yesterday, I could somehow feel the tension amongst 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAviNlDzonjo
ourselves. It's like we were now divided ever since I had suggested on 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAUoywD2wx5i
on all of us working on the lyrics for the song. Mike, Daniel and I on 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAJiTQQNNO1e
one side, Zoey and Christine on the other. How I wish it never came to 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA2jt5lrvHeu
this and I regretted every moment of it. But as the saying goes, what's 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAWCDL84AtbJ
done is done.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAZ2JZb0zoYs
We were all seated in 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAD3cLYzITPB
the car, the others talking amongst themselves with Lee and Collins 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAM4hUJAcgoM
while I was quiet and feeling out of place. We hadn't told Lee and 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAtFzDE1fPUF
Collins about our little conflict yesterday. We decided not to tell them1049Please respect copyright.PENANAP26guPBmVR
until we came to a final decision. That's if it will even be necessary.1049Please respect copyright.PENANASqQ8VGJmLL
"Looks like someone is 1049Please respect copyright.PENANATxNzIADizB
deep in their thoughts this morning," said Collins who sat in the front 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAamDhHayv1w
seat of the car and was looking at me through the rearview mirror.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA9ZtevTJFUl
"I just miss home, that's all," I said.1049Please respect copyright.PENANADVFJ36ELXn
"You can give your mum a call later on in the evening," said Collins. "I bet by then it would be daytime in the U.S."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAp9stvzvCwe
"Ya, sure." I tried to put up a smile, but it felt pointless.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAGrbHHDMRar
We finally arrived at 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAUiqnNtX1SV
our destination and when we all got out of the car, I couldn't help but 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA3Oas2ANy0V
feel nervous. The five of us followed Collins and Lee into the YG 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAwwEDtoAid4
building. As usual, we first had to go for practice. We left Collins and1049Please respect copyright.PENANAzawG4wOoFn
Lee downstairs on the ground floor, while the rest of us took the 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA2cAibgLE9e
elevator heading for the changing rooms.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAkyKFVoOuU9
After changing, we all met in one of the dance studios, ready for practice.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAvKyuwus4p1
"So, what should we do first?" I asked. "Go through the same routine as always or come up with some new dance moves?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAWotKtIuDY4
"I don't see why we 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAajShFdrbuM
should come up with new dance moves," said Zoey. "I mean, it's not like 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAZZDHlDH8Mh
we have come up with a new song yet or anything."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8XMZgys1L
I felt my heart jolt upwards and I couldn't tell if it was guilt because of the song issue or I wasn't just feeling too well.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAAiHfMEo7qT
"But we always come up 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAC0goVv8hOK
with new dance moves even without a new song," said Mike. "I've come up 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAAaDxDvgeoo
with some pretty good moves and I think we should try them out."1049Please respect copyright.PENANA9J1TvEB1Nx
"Well, okay then," said Zoey, shrugging her shoulders as though in doubt. "Let's give it a shot."1049Please respect copyright.PENANABMSu9V4QlV
"Zoey, if you want you can just sit back and watch," I said. "It seems to me you don't want to do this."1049Please respect copyright.PENANA6YLsZd7WCZ
"No, I want to, believe me," said Zoey.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA2pLMugEoGa
"Okay, if you say so," I turned to Mike. "So, what new ideas do you have?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAWd4o2MwLBm
Mike soon begun teaching1049Please respect copyright.PENANA2jyXFEI5ef
us some of the dance moves he had come up with and without fail, we all1049Please respect copyright.PENANAqpto8Bw4R1
got to know them quickly even when we made a few mistakes here and 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAtOKRZwPmPy
there. We soon got a hang of it after going through it a number of 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA6YTENRwHxJ
times, it turned out to be perfect and we liked it. Sometimes back home 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAHDswtvu386
when our choreographer, Jimmy wasn't available, Mike would step in and 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAG4NANEYPy0
act as our choreographer instead. Most of the time, the two would both 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAlJ7GRs0T1l
work together, and they made a pretty good team.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAA8DuyECmwJ
After going through the 1049Please respect copyright.PENANArwbtQExfEn
dance moves flawlessly with what seemed like the fourth time, we decided1049Please respect copyright.PENANANcV03GxbJ2
to take a break. And when I went to collect my water bottle on a rack 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAPtwwijULI1
where we laid our training bags, I noticed from the corner of my eye 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAk0gr0HvElQ
that the door stood slightly open. That's weird. The last time I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAGhMCpwzZYy
checked, the door was closed and I am pretty sure of it.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA7ipmbYEZ8D
When I turned to face 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA2MihtBi2NG
the door, I noticed a shadow, and it moved. Someone was definitely 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAIRLcAWjrvH
behind the door. I started to walk towards it and when I got to the 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAu7NuVMDhUO
door, I was surprised with what I saw. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAldzQhMIEoM
Standing behind the door1049Please respect copyright.PENANAUamZyjkH9l
were two young trainees, probably in their teens, a male and female. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAgGn6rE5tQa
When I saw them face to face behind the door, they seemed frightened and1049Please respect copyright.PENANAA388RfF9F5
they bowed their heads.1049Please respect copyright.PENANATiHV7NLSte
At that moment I didn't have any words to say as I kept staring at them.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA9CECKqGawj
"Hey, Sam, who is by the door?" Christine called out to me.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAO5Bcfp89L2
I couldn't even reply. I1049Please respect copyright.PENANAzqESwehmGj
didn't even know where to start explaining to Christine that there were1049Please respect copyright.PENANAYYE4u7e3DO
young trainees by the door, who were probably watching us practice.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA4HQujsuFjK
Before I could say anything, the girl said, "we're sorry. We didn't mean to spy on you while you were practising."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAjK7fR3zHzS
"Yes, we're sorry," said the boy. "We were just leaving."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAMrRuKqe6AI
With their heads still bowed low, they slowly started to back away.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAPtYhAsBrjO
"Wait, stop," I said.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAiVYro0G2B4
The two trainees immediately stopped as though they were robots. It felt a little weird, but I quickly brushed off the feeling.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAdpA1EE2BNj
"Please, come in," I said, stepping aside and widening the door for them.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA7PHuGGGkco
For a moment, the 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAbwUBHj7F5x
trainees looked on at me with scared looks on their faces. I can tell 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAtVmmftzKEE
why. It was probably some of the rules set around the place and they 1049Please respect copyright.PENANABRBvdtmTax
must have found it quiet weird that I, the famous B.K, had told them to 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAcUTlS6mpHo
come in.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAINGiqIJAXR
"아니요 (Aniyo)," said the 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA2MNwY4Czms
boy. I recognised that he said 'no'. I don't know Korean, but there were1049Please respect copyright.PENANAxeK2ajdWHH
some basic words I got to know so far from watching some K-Drama 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAQs8SavTJPF
series.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA0aE2bRo4ac
"I mean, no," said the boy, this time in English. "That won't be necessary."1049Please respect copyright.PENANA5RPzkWU1TF
"No, I insist," I said. "Come on in, we don't bite."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAXfhshjuQdi
Zoey soon appeared behind me and asked, "what's going on? Are these fans of ours?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAk0Zd71qRdG
"Well, maybe," I said. "Don't try to intimidate them. You know you scare people."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAvHIHxVUstm
"No, I don't," Zoey 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAVEhgjiUFga
turned to face the trainees and said, "you guys can come on in and 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6IqTMZmxc
practice with us. You're YG trainees, right?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAVGtDkRCZXC
The two trainees 1049Please respect copyright.PENANALiYWSRxuqY
nervously nodded, still with their heads bowed low. I looked on at the 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAMZDlgVELyy
trainees, then at Zoey, then back at the trainees again.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA4oC0qwti55
"If you are worried 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAU5g1uhv455
about getting in trouble with Yang Hyun-suk, don't worry about it," I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAaTCJK2vyGn
said. "You can come and practice with us. You don't have to be afraid."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAicMT2AJDiA
The two trainees looked 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAVYSA0c46mE
at me and this time, they looked really excited. By the looks on their 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAF48dd9fWKj
faces, I bet they were fans, and probably the idea of dancing with The 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA3q7PceQQ2h
Toxins seemed like a dream come true. I knew how that felt, because once1049Please respect copyright.PENANAZclwAeUSHQ
upon a time, I was once in their shoes.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAWlJEgUitvS
"Re-really?" the girl asked, looking at me with excitement in her eyes.1049Please respect copyright.PENANApoixfBXKdJ
"Ya, sure. Why not?" I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA8t921D1WDR
jerked my head to the side, telling them to come in. I knew I was 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAij3VJTgTJp
already in trouble with Yang Hyun-suk because of what happened at 1049Please respect copyright.PENANArEmDYFFGtN
Caribbean Bay, so I didn't mind if I got into more trouble just because 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAwcNxAiAxfB
of allowing innocent trainees to come and practice with us.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAcgzf9fIkyr
The trainees gladly followed as Zoey and I led the way.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAL5YZ4epbL8
"Oh, I see you brought in some friends," said Daniel as he saw us approaching. "Welcome guys."1049Please respect copyright.PENANASwf7yngTdu
"Thank you," said the two trainees at the same time, with huge big smiles on their faces.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAZXfAzPk0Ze
"You guys don't mind if they join us, do you?" I asked the others.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAaZIrLJIrzU
"Not at all," said Mike.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAJFYRLR1u5Y
"Ya, it's good to have people around, much less our fans," said Christine. "It's going to be so much fun."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAOcrguyiC14
"Wow, this is like a dream come true," said the girl. "I never knew I would be dancing with you guys."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAeiqWZTzoOP
"You better believe it, girl," said Zoey, giving the girl a wink. "Dreams do come true."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAo6GsyGfj8j
"So, should we teach them the new dance moves we have been working on?" Mike asked as he turned to me.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAUX8V8rDy7p
"Ya, sure," I said. "It's okay with me."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAjD0Vq3F9Qt
Mike soon started to 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAzpa4CJSwzG
teach the trainees the dance moves and surprisingly, they got to learn 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAc4COedxfd2
it quicker than I anticipated. They were really talented, I had to give 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA8MqSlaIlPQ
them credit for that.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA5hN06YSDup
"Wow, for trainees, you're really good," said Mike, as he turned to face them.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAu0mk1jHOnW
"We try," said the boy. "We have been watching you practise, so it wasn't that hard."1049Please respect copyright.PENANALDJXkvu6ro
"We didn't get to know your names," said Daniel.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA1iZtXDNfxt
"I'm Soo Mi," said the girl.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAcOELcelnOJ
"I'm Young Jin," said the boy.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAoqZp6J4xNi
"It's really nice to meet you guys," I said. "Why don't we go through the dance moves together and see how it all turns out?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAIIMH3gCufF
Everyone agreed. We 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAzdAoiNQVyg
positioned ourselves and started going through the moves again and it 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAEE5W3cSjXB
was awesome. When we were done, everyone cheered and we all gave each 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAHv87YrwvR1
other high fives.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA9WQbhwm9Z2
"This is so much fun," I said.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAcO0DDI1TOM
"Ya, I know, we should be doing this more often with other trainees," said Mike.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAtfCLlJZrc7
"Ya, but we have to finish this dance routine, Mike," said Zoey. "So, work on it."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAQrfy8k3SPu
While I turned to talk to the trainees, I noticed Lee come into the studio. And she seemed to be coming straight for me.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA7WMv6QaIw6
"Sam, we need to go," said Lee as she came close.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAwlDSDMPD2a
"Go? Go where?" I asked looking confused.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAtbOdNtnCwY
"The reporters are here, you know, over the video of you and G-Dragon."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAtzbdE1JbXZ
Yikes! I was enjoying 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAL2ACsUHrco
myself with practice and being friends with the trainees, I forgot all 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA7P7qoPn0cE
about the video. I wish the reporters should just forget about the 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAzyaRegjYtc
stupid video for once and let it be.1049Please respect copyright.PENANANO9cl704TZ
But that wasn't my only 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAOgIWeAJMCe
fear. I am going to be with GD for the interview and the thought of 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA4bY7SZM666
being next to him somehow made me nervous. I realised that I had 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAPQrwUaz5NW
goosebumps all over my arms just at the thought of it. I just hope he 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAnDTusE1z5m
isn't mad at me anymore. But I was going to trust my gut and say that he1049Please respect copyright.PENANAv31WeHBq2W
probably still is.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAz6XpJsipat
"Wait, they are having their interview today?" Zoey asked.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAMaaY8w2mmw
"Yes, and right now," said Lee. "Go and freshen up, Sam. You must be ready within fifteen minutes."1049Please respect copyright.PENANABJ3l6wQup6
"Um, okay," I said. I could even hear my voice breaking. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA9YfwJO7VZk
"Is GD already here?" Christine asked.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAjg5IpF9pRR
When Christine asked the1049Please respect copyright.PENANAKXtOU8fsqp
question, I felt my heart stop beating. Eish! I was nervous for sure. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAIDDNDwXj0p
The thought of GD being here almost made me want to run.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAORuzIoOzQ1
"No, but he will be here any moment," Lee replied. "Come on, Sam. You better take a shower."1049Please respect copyright.PENANA8szTRJOSvi
Somehow, it felt good 1049Please respect copyright.PENANArp9M1K7EKZ
that I was going to take a shower. Maybe I would cool off and try to 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAkIkD4ZYFSZ
calm down with all of this. But I felt that wasn't going to be the case.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAdDf6LmOTXd
"See you later, guys," I said as I followed Lee who led the way out of the studio.1049Please respect copyright.PENANASsAUZUHb8e
Everyone waved and 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAr1JAxM4ubl
wished me luck. Dealing with reporters wasn't easy and you just didn't 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAirpG90SjCa
need luck to confront them. You needed guts and confidence.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAsIWD3hQ0vX
I needed luck to be on my side though, because dealing with G-Dragon wasn't going to be easy.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAbDbIkshqdq
***1049Please respect copyright.PENANApNbfQwktWa
The make-up artists were1049Please respect copyright.PENANAseOjFurMpM
done powdering my face and my hair was all combed and tied up in a pony1049Please respect copyright.PENANAfee4bSlfiT
tail. I wanted to look simple in front of the cameras and reporters 1049Please respect copyright.PENANANQvHrT8kIm
just like I always have. Except whenever I have to shoot for music 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAlK05hC52DD
videos and taking photo shoots, I have to apply make-up just to fit in 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAmpQ9khP2Kw
with the scene.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAq44gf6dWav
When the make-up artists1049Please respect copyright.PENANA5KSkwSJYC9
were done and I was applying pink lip gloss on my lips, I heard quick 1049Please respect copyright.PENANApStGQNdtod
chattering behind me and someone mentioned G-Dragon's name. I turned to 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAt13MRjf58Q
look behind me and I saw G-Dragon entering the dressing room.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAT1rAI58Abi
My heart skipped a beat 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAoovJP1wrk6
as I watched him. He didn't seem to notice me at first because of the 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAMp3DhV9VKN
make-up artists and clothe designers that surrounded him trying to 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAcJDvOQZN8U
figure out if he needed a bit of make-up and a change of clothes. But 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA84xJ0zhkPT
just the way he was dressed seemed okay to me and they seemed to have 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAdoXjziE0Oz
noticed that too because, they backed away from him and went on to do 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAfRhijL2nPe
their own things.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAOvK2BKPhLo
He dyed his hair blonde 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA6XBH192Uz8
this time around and it matched with his white fancy jacket with gold 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAA21TefNObv
studs on the collar and a black shirt beneath. They never call him a 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAqxc9Qp7uWU
fashionista for nothing.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAJ9Z1pWJrPq
When he looked in my direction, he saw me and he immediately looked the other way as though I was nothing.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAl0Z4Bgwy0z
Ouch! That's gotta hurt!1049Please respect copyright.PENANALeTy53TEEm
I felt my face grow hot in embarrassment. He was still mad at me. I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAVyJeJjiDQs
slowly turned to face the mirror again trying to act like nothing was 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAjZidL2BUv8
wrong, when I was actually hurt.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA766zmpn17L
Through the mirror, I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAgujg3TmP5I
saw G-Dragon take a seat on the other side of the dressing room facing a1049Please respect copyright.PENANAQ1C6Jfs5b3
mirror. He was looking down on his phone, probably texting or 1049Please respect copyright.PENANArHEg0SLzAY
something, and I continued to stare at him.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAJySzPH01U1
G-Dragon looked up at 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAUyne5tjZG2
the mirror in front of him and I bet he saw me looking at him through my1049Please respect copyright.PENANA6VBJxT6KTf
mirror because he had a funny look on his face and he went back to 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAMbULC8QBKZ
looking at his phone. Bummer! I could tell by the way he looked at the 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAFeakyWMkQh
mirror that he obviously saw me looking at him. I sighed in deep regret 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAk8k5bDqEWy
and looked the other way. I had never felt so alone.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAvQGLrFyEpq
Then all of the sudden, 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAOyTEewBe3X
someone behind me held my shoulders and I almost jumped in fright. I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAbTTfbyMUHZ
looked behind me and there stood Daesung. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAxeUinHCmB0
"Hey, little kitty. Your head's in the clouds today," he said, as he continued to look down at me and smiled. "What's up?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAldzlFhm226
At that moment, I was so1049Please respect copyright.PENANAI4VafDTgdD
glad that he was here. Right now I needed someone to talk to. I smiled 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAfAmNXul9gx
back up at him. His smile and his presence seemed to have brighten my 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAutQ9D2soBd
mood a little.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAJfycjvDQ0q
"Take a seat and I'll tell you," I said.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAbDM9HTk2gi
"Okay, sounds serious," said Daesung as he grabbed a chair and sat next to me.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAwFTArgjxwl
When I looked at 1049Please respect copyright.PENANASJEbptmWwt
Daesung, I felt myself blush. With our shoulders almost brushing each 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAhSQ12iXsdw
other, I could feel the electric pull between us and I hope he wasn't 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAHn3gUEjOvr
feeling it too. It brought back memories of what happened the day before1049Please respect copyright.PENANAMTaG2hUqqI
yesterday. The two of us hadn't even tried to bring up that topic yet. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA8Mlt8tYh3I
Maybe we never will.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAkR0K1j3ScO
"So, tell me, what's wrong?" Daesung asked.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA3G1kqNCO5r
"Everything is wrong," I slowly replied.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA7gbOOpDQMl
"Is it about yesterday?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANASQpTR7ta18
"Ya, it is."1049Please respect copyright.PENANABBTJaZwJxB
Daesung looked behind 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAU5jU5ZTHIC
him because he knew what I was taking about. I also turned and G-Dragon 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAA6q1YJTquZ
was still on his phone ignoring everyone around him. He seemed lost in 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAef9IS3VXHw
his own world.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAQBqaToq9ss
"He's still mad, isn't he?" Daesung asked as he turned to face me.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA04ql5BNrFJ
"Pretty much," I replied. "He didn't say a word to me when he came in and ignored me as though I didn't exist."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAhVNNhSoqAR
"Let's just hope he doesn't stay that way for long."1049Please respect copyright.PENANADcdAGJ0f7H
"I hope so too. But why do I get the feeling that this is only going to get worse?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAlB6UMqABey
"Stop thinking like that, okay?" Daesung held my hand that was on my lap. That sent tingles up my arm and down my spine.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAeNCSytB0wY
"I can't, Daesung," I said. "My gut feeling has never failed me before. Why should it now?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAvvph1TQhmo
"I don't have the answer to that. And it seems to me you really trust your gut a lot."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAjrcM8vC0ud
"Dah, I always do," I said rolling my eyes playfully as I smiled.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA4VuOfo3pXs
Daesung laughed and that1049Please respect copyright.PENANA1mBfQNYy6g
caused me to laugh also. I felt so relieved that I shared this with 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA6J9wu0d8Fu
Daesung. He is so nice, caring and understanding, just like Taeyang.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAIr8ZEpFP7S
I soon felt someone's 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAH0v9L2p4RV
eyes on me as I laughed. I looked behind me. For a moment, I had a 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAuq90nR3zz6
feeling that G-Dragon was staring at us through the mirror, but his eyes1049Please respect copyright.PENANAfXwJZ1Jdqg
were still on the phone. Maybe I was just imagining things.1049Please respect copyright.PENANACOVxaz20vH
Lee suddenly came in the dressing room and said, "Sam, Ji Yong, it's time to go. The reporters are waiting."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAFX1Vvd20eA
I quickly stood up and 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAYtz9eDGaY7
checked if my clothes were alright. I was wearing a blue summer dress 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAQz5wnwHeEc
with purple flowers on it and white flats.1049Please respect copyright.PENANASUdYJWNDNO
"You look beautiful, Sam," said Daesung. "Just stunning."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAd5uSE53qpA
I smiled and I blushed like crazy. Right now, I had to focus on the interview and Daesung was sweeping me off my feet.1049Please respect copyright.PENANADxzWUjQ5Pv
"Thanks, Daesung," I smiled, as I continued to blush.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAz7tYr7UnKp
I noticed G-Dragon stare1049Please respect copyright.PENANAX43eThisi9
at us as he stood up from his chair. And when I turned to face him, he 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA8PDpXvnLaQ
quickly looked away and walked out of the dressing room, bypassing Lee 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAmnTx1zwYDX
who was by the door. For a moment, the room was silent as everyone, 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA0RkhYOLuGp
including the people who worked around the dressing room, noticed 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAmp8rwEhV34
G-Dragon's odd behaviour.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA3q6r0DZVPc
"Wow. What's wrong with him?" Lee asked as she pointed her thumb down the hall where G-Dragon had passed.1049Please respect copyright.PENANApVxD07dSYz
"Long story," I answered. "We better go."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAXih692XDze
Lee nodded her head and I turned to face Daesung.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAMD8wumypGQ
"You'll be fine, don't worry about it," said Daesung as he smiled at me.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA5ljqK9oPHF
"Thanks," I tried to put up a smile, but it all felt useless.1049Please respect copyright.PENANABqn4PTcCkP
Lee and I walked out of 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA8Yr7Xf804W
the dressing room together and it seemed like G-Dragon had already taken1049Please respect copyright.PENANAKmDQOpRomy
off into the elevator without us because he wasn't in the hallway. The 1049Please respect copyright.PENANABANFJ7O2UZ
guilt came back to settle within me and I couldn't help but blame myself1049Please respect copyright.PENANAMdw9A7SLMI
that it was all my fault he was acting this way.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAEZActDB6gc
When Lee and I got into 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAxLrHXASGaA
the elevator, she asked, "why does G-Dragon seem so upset? I noticed the1049Please respect copyright.PENANAakLSKvEb2I
way he looked at you. Weren't you supposed to be mad at him for what 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAri9qOtQqSn
happened at Caribbean Bay?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANA0iCd0oKAgO
"A lot has happened that1049Please respect copyright.PENANAzIBXlx0HdA
you don't know about, Lee," I said, staring at my feet as the elevator 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAGFwmmxv986
continued to move. "So much that I can't explain."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAq7OW0AcKhi
"Like what? I heard you guys had lunch yesterday and things didn't turn out well."1049Please respect copyright.PENANArhZkgY3z1S
"Where did you hear that from?" I asked as I quickly turned to look at her.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAreJnzj03R6
"Too much gossip among 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAxhwLUF7xEh
the working staff at the hotel," said Lee with a smile. "Don't worry 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA2zPOsqXgLG
though. They said it didn't seem so serious."1049Please respect copyright.PENANApNYx82qILI
"Wait? You understand Korean?" I grew even more surprised when that thought suddenly dawned on me.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAPbQGWHjnhk
"Dah," said Lee, rolling1049Please respect copyright.PENANAybmYu5GTFC
her eyes and the elevator doors slid open. "Why do you think I was able1049Please respect copyright.PENANA0C6vAggaiX
to hold Yang Hyun-suk and Collins for so long at YG? Oh, and don't tell1049Please respect copyright.PENANAlUIrtgN23t
Collins. He doesn't know either."1049Please respect copyright.PENANA5TJHBFZ2po
"You never told me what happened," I said as the two of us stepped out of the elevator.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAYyJPt4JOWS
"Well, I think the both 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAEwQoYkFUgP
of us have a lot of catching up to do after this," said Lee as we both 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAGT0XeYiAJR
walked down the hallway and turned round the corner. "Right now, it's 1049Please respect copyright.PENANARc9sjXbyjU
showtime."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAAzMXgalZoO
It was showtime indeed. I1049Please respect copyright.PENANAVxocMgNOKi
found Collins, Yang Hyun-suk and G-Dragon talking amongst themselves in1049Please respect copyright.PENANAfB2Rzsisll
the hallway. Behind them was the door that led to the conference room. I1049Please respect copyright.PENANAcTnQIwKSLS
could hear voices of the reporters behind the door and I felt my palms 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAJ3z1YPPxGC
starting to sweat. I wasn't such a fan of interviews and I hated them.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7tZ348DQU
"Ah, here she comes," said Yang Hyun-suk as he noticed Lee and I approach. "You're looking very lovely today."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAqal2eu5BZ0
I bowed my head at him and said slowly, "gomawoyo (고마워요) (thank you), Hyun-suk Sajangnim (사장님) (Boss)."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAPTNWykde5r
"I'm impressed," said Yang Hyun-suk, with a smile on his face. "You're really learning."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAcdNYXm6x9Z
"Well, I try to do the best I could," I said.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAzJhprL724z
"Sam really knows how to adapt to the environment she's in," said Collins. "No wonder she's so smart."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAHuVXsu46s3
"No doubt about that," said Yang Hyun-suk. "And she's looking really lovely today, isn't that right, GD?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANABxuPpW6T4s
My heart almost skipped a1049Please respect copyright.PENANA7SSm5RirUG
beat as I turned to look at G-Dragon who was also looking at me. For a 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAd6mBifAU0H
moment, he didn't reply and I was scared at what he was going to say.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAAoXlPB57lj
Surprisingly, he managed1049Please respect copyright.PENANAFMf0fwYz9p
to put up a smile on his face. For a moment there, his smile seemed 1049Please respect copyright.PENANANKfIJJCDnI
genuine, but I could feel the negative energy behind it.1049Please respect copyright.PENANARprFTM3ZKo
"Yes, she does look lovely today," G-Dragon replied.1049Please respect copyright.PENANABYvwo4bM21
I didn't know whether I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAp4emhXB8kh
should run or remain where I was. I couldn't stand this any longer. I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAJaiMLz1zX4
felt he was some psychopathic killer ready to jump on me when no one was1049Please respect copyright.PENANAao1Pb2cNYz
looking. And honestly, I felt pretty terrified.1049Please respect copyright.PENANACAjU9W5q5J
The door soon flew open 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAPjXGsonBFd
and someone came to inform us that everything was all set and ready to 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAsTYjf9mI64
go. I breathed out heavily as I tried to calm myself and we walked 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAzAp37XwQe5
towards the door. My palms were still sweaty.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAxMQ9sDKrU0
"Hey, don't worry about a thing," said Lee as she reached me to the door. "You'll be alright."1049Please respect copyright.PENANA8mfSZzSQXT
All I could do was nod my head at Lee and I stepped in to the conference room first with G-Dragon behind me.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAnEb8mOrfzS
The flashing lights of 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAixC524vbOz
the cameras flashed around me. They blinded my eyes for a moment, but I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAQbiiBbGMyY
pretended not to flinch as I continued to walk up to the small podium 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAF1ZZuZ7fYR
and there stood a table with four chairs.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAvPtmEJ0Pqo
I got up to the podium 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA6dvn2nsnZl
and I was guided where to sit. There were four chairs behind the table 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAty9q7WSxkm
and I sat in the middle and G-Dragon sat next to me. Collins sat to my 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAmYWMqrx60O
left while Yang Hyun-suk sat to G-Dragon's right.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAhKuYNGBT8i
The bright lights of the1049Please respect copyright.PENANAWpPnXIyyh8
flashing cameras continued to flash in front of my eyes and it took 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAfgmkGFFH1B
time to regain my vision. I soon noticed that there were a lot more 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAPBIhl3puGM
reporters and camera men in the conference room than I had anticipated. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAwrSlVXrpYF
My hands were as sweaty as hell and I felt them shivering. I bet this 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAWQYzro4q8G
interview was going live on national TV because I noticed video cameras 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA4JeQzuPp8g
around the room.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAUSRAsGnOAC
"Good morning, 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA5R52PpfaZe
everyone," said Yang Hyun-suk through the set of microphones that were 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAeoTWXWtTiV
in front of him on the table. "We may now proceed with the interview. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA5419jPRvK0
You may begin to ask your questions."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAM7pwnhXaB6
The thing I always hated1049Please respect copyright.PENANACpzgaEsG7t
about interviews, was that reporters could ask the dumbest questions, 1049Please respect copyright.PENANASAg2dDh5Xw
the personal ones, the most hurtful ones, the most confusing ones and 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAl4NIedqm78
the inappropriate ones. I hoped and prayed that the first question 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAuQ65S4REll
wasn't going to be any of the five I had in mind. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAnrNwBNyDkD
A lady among the 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAkLxiwZaRNb
reporters raised her hand and Yang Hyun-suk told her to proceed. I had 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAjq4VRKtqAN
my fingers crossed. I always hated such moments.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAz8uK28SoR4
"I'm Mi Sun from MBC 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA1OTYtuJajq
TV," said the reporter. "On Tuesday this week, a video of YG's own 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA8XHpFXzB0n
phenomenal artist, G-Dragon, and Samantha Glasson, also known as B.K, 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAMAoiymdwr5
was released on YouTube and almost became a worldwide trend. My 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAC0kwCmN9qs
question, probably on everyone's mind is, are the two of them dating?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANA8yEqtc6tZ0
Yang Hyun-suk answered, 1049Please respect copyright.PENANASnWzIUDJRt
"we can assure you that the two of them aren't dating. That video wasn't1049Please respect copyright.PENANAM0zehZ3Iig
supposed to be aired on YouTube."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAg9gtY4nCTG
"If it wasn't supposed to be aired, then who did this and why?" the reporter asked.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA1l1AzVnQpP
Ah, oh. Was this the 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAfEc1W4Vnf5
part where either G-Dragon and I were supposed to answer the question? 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAdJgnWRSSll
If so, I wasn't ready to tell them that my very own best friend had done1049Please respect copyright.PENANAn3TFbm5ta7
all this. I feared of what the outcome may be.1049Please respect copyright.PENANACV2e9nxioH
"The person who took the video was none other than our very own, Zoey," Collins answered.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAGVv7672KpZ
From the corner of my 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAswuM6cGaCD
eye, I looked at Collins. I knew Collins wouldn't want to make Zoey look1049Please respect copyright.PENANA4At0RIU1ik
bad for any reason at all, but it looks like he and Yang Hyun-suk were 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAerp20paFjd
sticking to the truth. I might as well just do the same.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAeT6qcAuTX9
Another reporter, a man this time around, raised a hand and Yang Hyun-suk allowed him to speak.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAVPoAKxh2vt
"Thank you, my name is 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAUyI4bWBCwY
Jin Soo from KBS," said the male reporter. "I think a lot of people 1049Please respect copyright.PENANACTYB7ObR3y
would want to know after hearing all of this, why would Zoey post that 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAAbgZCdZtOM
video? From the look of things, what was going on between GD and BK 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAT9wbhsQTmn
seemed like a private affair, or was the video all for show?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANApAhnYM2Yqt
This was what I feared. I1049Please respect copyright.PENANAaLHPa69qei
bet a lot of our fans were thinking G-Dragon and I were actually dating1049Please respect copyright.PENANAtS6y1ddEGK
and had high hopes. Now that people know the truth, it would crush the 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAGK2kWJWCKh
fans and Zoey would end up being the villain. But telling the truth was 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA50vUJ4hssJ
really the best option. It wouldn't seem right, now that GD and I were 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAfutHJDgHs2
clearly not on good terms at the moment, to tell the whole world a lie.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAIm7bO5T9UG
"I think I'll answer that question," said G-Dragon.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAsuYuOZfnRH
For a moment, my heart 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAl6UEJm6K1G
almost skipped a beat as G-Dragon spoke through the mic. I turned to 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAtfMLik3o9B
look at him. I just hoped he wasn't going to say anything that would 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAX8wxnSNd3l
raise more questions from the reporters.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAIrIWT7YOSk
"The video you saw on YouTube wasn't for show," said G-Dragon. "All that was actually real."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAsCkhDk9XKk
"And you allowed Zoey to take the video?" the male reporter asked.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAHRL2dt10RY
"No, apparently, we never realised that Zoey was taking the video until it was already too late."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAFLJtSFlPTW
"But why did she do all that? Can you explain what her intentions were at the time?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAJCu12eDBNl
I knew G-Dragon wasn't 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAbqVvfKZxCQ
going to answer that question because no one knew Zoey better than I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANArkBUwxHehU
did. So without realising it, I stepped in.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAEpJqa4xHdL
"I know what Zoey did by1049Please respect copyright.PENANAb2jclTMkBz
releasing the video has raised a lot of questions in everyone's mind," I1049Please respect copyright.PENANAlh5cj3f0yk
said, confidently. "Many of our fans had high hopes that GD and I were 1049Please respect copyright.PENANALkPay8L4o2
dating, but that's not the case. What happened was nothing but a 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAOljXesR5V5
misunderstanding."1049Please respect copyright.PENANA3BxYeefxCr
Immediately I said those1049Please respect copyright.PENANAHREA6s5gNU
words, everyone's eyes were on me now, including those around the world1049Please respect copyright.PENANAEcIiP2OU4Q
probably watching on their television screens or devices. Yang 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAGXBl18bruJ
Hyun-suk, Collins and G-Dragon also stared at me. The camera lights kept1049Please respect copyright.PENANA9HUptbKNE9
on flashing in my face like crazy. I wish I could tell the camera men 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAnmweC6jMzs
to stop because the flashing lights were so annoying. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAKEQZnaceRc
I continued before any 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAX6HfCWG3s2
reporter could ask what I meant. "The truth is, what was going on 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA5AH6MNhaBv
between GD and I was real. He gave me chocolates and roses because he 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAzRDCktIHAY
was trying to make up for not being there for me the previous day and to1049Please respect copyright.PENANAu6uklpcSDb
congratulate me on making it on the Elle Korean Magazine Cover. So, him1049Please respect copyright.PENANAVaFpQc4IGV
giving me those gifts were more like saying 'congratulations' and 'I'm 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAbfckzsdioC
sorry for not being there' kind of thing."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAmsEFKRstkv
For a moment, no one 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAoN8hn8QxYf
said a word, not even the reporters. I turned to Collins, who gave me a 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAjbpj7EOyla
nod to go on. I continued to stare at the audience of reporters and 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAaZ0Te5j7q5
camera men. I could feel G-Dragon's eyes on me though. But that 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAJ3zKSQYIM1
shouldn't intimidate me. I cleared my throat and went on.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAJSiH8oJYDZ
"And knowing Zoey, she's1049Please respect copyright.PENANA50D7gD4VAM
one who likes to capture such beautiful moments. So, she decided to 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAdv5Ga2WRQh
take a video of what was happening. And before we could realise what was1049Please respect copyright.PENANA5tJ2F7QzNA
going on, it was already too late. She first posted it on her fan base,1049Please respect copyright.PENANA558Tbfslwk
which she usually does. But before she could take it down, her loyal 1049Please respect copyright.PENANANIFv6YhVtk
fans had already seen it and probably one of them posted it on YouTube. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAab61v20hD6
And that's how everything came to be up to this point."1049Please respect copyright.PENANA2EpPh79A92
All the reporters who 1049Please respect copyright.PENANApaKPwUKuib
were taking down what I was saying, started muttering among themselves 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAoi9onwlONz
as though we were in a debate room. I didn't know what they would 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAWI4c6nmac0
obviously be talking about and I hoped that they weren't going to ask a 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAiSvrf0xKwR
question that might just intimidate me.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAVshNy2X3nY
The same female reporter from MBC raised her hand and she was told to proceed. I feared for my life.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAJlFlizXmOc
"So what you're trying to say, B.K, is that all this is Zoey's fault?" the reporter asked.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAjN1ESAyAS4
"Well, I could blame 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAgOkDcizmVU
Zoey because she was the one who took the video in the first place and 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAJln2X8vKM4
without our permission. But it's not entirely her fault," I replied. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANANeGzqPPYmf
"I've grown to know her very well because she's my best friend. I know 1049Please respect copyright.PENANARWa5G2QsM5
she didn't mean any harm by raising people's hopes that we were dating. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANANKFzaxLGTL
Knowing her, she thought she could try to capture the great friendship 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAQQVdxRqDRb
that G-Dragon and I have."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAbhLJmPrHJo
What was I saying? I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAbaIy9DTPof
know I am being honest and genuine, but saying it with G-Dragon by my 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA4Q4sbiy8IJ
side felt awkward. If people got to know that G-Dragon and I had quiet a1049Please respect copyright.PENANAEEguTwjw7l
misunderstanding the other day, it would surly raise questions and the 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAnp3m5RNquB
whole world would criticise me.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAS3qZB3iYFD
I stared at G-Dragon 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAqLHumgrVnk
beside me and he was still staring at me. I could see it in his eyes 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAUQfpmofdVT
that me saying all that felt wrong, but all that happened way before the1049Please respect copyright.PENANAPaDUZX89AP
argument. I was hurting as I said all that and I wish I could turn back1049Please respect copyright.PENANAUE8hJXIl2s
the hands of time and set things right.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAV1JSNJm04S
"And also, she's always 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAv9guIR10Xz
admired G-Dragon," I continued, as I turned to the audience. "So, I bet 1049Please respect copyright.PENANADAqAwEfGIO
she was trying to capture G-Dragon's great personality. We all know how 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAU4uI38pwRK
much of a good guy he is, so, that's why Zoey did all that."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAgdVyILxQTL
I think I had said 1049Please respect copyright.PENANACfmWGP2ljG
enough and I kept quiet. This was awkward and I could feel that G-Dragon1049Please respect copyright.PENANAmnDPWLXF6f
was feeling the same way. All I wanted was for this interview to be 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAcETNiq7qts
over and get out of the conference room.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAN3rd1amRVS
"So, you two are clearly not dating?" the reporter asked.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAAoegqsMunF
"No," G-Dragon and I replied at the same time.1049Please respect copyright.PENANADY6NqGned3
Okay. That felt weird. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANArV7xdvGRgj
My eyes flew at G-Dragon and he also turned to look at me. That made 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAI3ZV9hocuQ
things even more weirder. I bet those watching on national TV would 1049Please respect copyright.PENANANSSSoWqWHT
either find all of this a show or something beyond the ordinary.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAvXY9zsWmsx
"And you guys wouldn't 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAFaa36dZTSa
like to date in future?" the reporter continued. "Because a lot has been1049Please respect copyright.PENANAcE9B6th29T
said since the video came out that you two would make a great couple."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAmhTuDLqoV6
"No, we wouldn't."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAE51LSiYMkC
Dang it! We replied at 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAeMXcqiKhyW
the same time, again! This wasn't going so well and we both knew it as 1049Please respect copyright.PENANApalBr797Rv
we stared at each other. These were the times you would tell the 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAW4V8yRNZWd
reporters to mind their own business and walk away like you didn't care.1049Please respect copyright.PENANALNSk4ZXWZc
This was turning out to be just terrible.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAAIgR4ZMdZh
"There would be no need 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAjeE4IbDWvs
to ask such questions," said Collins. "The Toxins are here in South 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAOyJJ4UU5BT
Korea strictly for business. There would be no point for Sam and Ji Yong1049Please respect copyright.PENANAzd1w6wn3Zn
to start dating when The Toxins would obviously stay here for less than1049Please respect copyright.PENANAxFwjaxe5Sz
a month or two."1049Please respect copyright.PENANArj9A5Og6So
Phew! Thank you, 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA7R0hKw0Xw6
Collins! No wonder I considered him as my top guardian angel. I was so 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAsdIq8nusOc
glad that he finally decided to step in or else I would obviously have 1049Please respect copyright.PENANABvCrCfRYY0
told the reporter to piss off.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAEqBSLohJ9H
"So, how is the song 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAzvhgitjzYg
coming along?" the reporter asked. "Because I heard The Toxins and 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAKCuy6JCRoV
BigBang had quiet a fun ride at Caribbean Bay the day before."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAmhCz2WGcT5
Oh no. That question was clearly not necessary. Aargh! This was what I considered the inappropriate question.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAik3AVA8wr0
"I don't see why you get1049Please respect copyright.PENANA9Z7L0Z5CJC
to ask that," said Collins. "They went out to have fun and find a 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA0d4loAxDry
source of inspiration for their song. And why not at Caribbean Bay? I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAPYCeRZPgaT
know Sam and Ji Yong were supposed to be here for the interview that 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAi0TatgIXKc
day, but apparently, you all came at the last minute when they had 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAvbHQ07BEq3
already made plans to go out."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAjW7GBqZwjP
I didn't know whether to1049Please respect copyright.PENANAIOMLF5wuMv
be impressed that Collins is such a good liar, or I should hug him at 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA51pK4bOVWa
the end of the interview for saving our necks. That was such a close 1049Please respect copyright.PENANARZ1FAjjxDj
call.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAC31pk7Imn9
"I think time is already up," said Yang Hyun-suk. "So, if you would kindly excuse us, we have other schedules to attend to."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAsviKBWaakJ
No reporter asked any 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAQBrv8Zvzhq
further questions, that meant all of this was over. Finally! I just 1049Please respect copyright.PENANANvnOEYeonC
wanted to get out of here and breathe. I needed the air because things 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAVdn9YLCj31
were starting to get a little intense in here.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA5H5OooT9os
When we all got up from 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAV6hdnUSsGI
our chairs to leave, I was backing away from my chair and the back of my1049Please respect copyright.PENANAZt7c84FiKg
shoe got caught with one of the cable cords on the floor. Before I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAHtL8PSmxlt
realised it, I tripped and was falling backwards. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAjCEFiGgcZw
I almost screamed but before I could even reach the floor, G-Dragon caught me just in time. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAlfIgI49mNL
The camera lights in 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAn1iViBh78v
front of us flashed like crazy because of the scene. And I couldn't help1049Please respect copyright.PENANA9c9IBzDtAG
but feel that all this just made things a whole lot worse.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAXTk60zMjRk
G-Dragon and I were so 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAoL9QxkI2M6
close and I couldn't help but blush when I looked up at him and he was 1049Please respect copyright.PENANALnrp8majdq
staring down at me. I knew that he was still angry at me, but I wanted 1049Please respect copyright.PENANABuucDfwWlK
to forget about that and I hoped he would too. We could both carry on 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAkwMFls0OwV
with our lives as if all that never happened.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAY1oHupocoP
He quickly helped me to 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAF0FNazLCEC
straighten up as the camera lights continued to flash before us. I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAbE2uo6iTAn
stared at G-Dragon and I realised that I was still blushing. I took a 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAtavPXJ6dJ1
strand of my hair behind my ear and cleared my throat.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAMkoJwzJ9EI
"Um, thanks, GD," I said to him.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAslq7Thgl7G
"You should be a little more careful next time," he replied.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAbtfwdU8i06
I couldn't tell if he 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA0XyPmQwb36
said that because they were reporters around, or he really did care 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAlNAr6ufytm
despite being mad at me. That, I'll never know.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAMlWzGKzOq2
The four of us walked 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAMcv4pCd5Bb
out of the conference room and I couldn't help but realise that I had 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA0HRiakxOzn
another challenge ahead now. And that was the song.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAvsAUyICwcI
***1049Please respect copyright.PENANAh9skZtUFTj
"Sam, you were just awesome! Come here, you!" Zoey exclaimed as she ran towards me and pulled me into a tight hug.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAAmsjTLxenY
G-Dragon and I had just walked out of the conference room and Zoey appeared out of no where.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAs1QsAlxk8H
"I thought you weren't supposed to be here," I said to Zoey, still embraced in her arms.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAmgxiBPwlFI
"Well, ya," said Zoey as1049Please respect copyright.PENANAXMPIbscJuC
she pulled away from me. "I was watching the interview with the others 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAzqBwuZZ5P3
upstairs and when I saw how you defended me in front of those reporters,1049Please respect copyright.PENANAqMOKt59S6M
I decided to come down here."1049Please respect copyright.PENANA5jm4bhmr2D
"You should have seen the way she came," said Lee. "If it wasn't for me, she would have come running into the conference room."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAwVgwZN4fvT
"Zoey, what are you doing here?" came Collins' voice behind me. Yikes! Zoey was in for it now.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAQU4v425bNA
"I came for my best friend," said Zoey. "Is that bad?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAfiQ8cIPLiW
"At the moment, yes," 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAdR0LxvBud2
said Collins. "Not when everyone now knows that it's all your fault that1049Please respect copyright.PENANAjeKmwlqYZf
you released the video and made everyone have high hopes about Sam and 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAi3U5OO3Xmj
G-Dragon's relationship. It was best to keep you out of plain site of 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAc24vU9Z4SR
the reporters to keep them from asking any more questions."1049Please respect copyright.PENANALzsMcUaNgs
"Come on, Collins," said1049Please respect copyright.PENANAf15uPS9JQh
Zoey, shaking her head at her manager. "Don't you know up to now that 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAuVDnCWb6pI
whatever Sam says to the media everyone will listen and believe her? No 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAOTGfieVBlo
one is going to be mad at me for long if not at all. You'll see."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAUcrnoOwlZE
"I don't get it," I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAZEQ9PDfLdf
said, with a confused look on my face. "Why do you say no one is going 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAfvej1WDIch
to be mad at you because of what I said?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAFruI2fbfKH
"You told the media that1049Please respect copyright.PENANAAj177w2HNh
even though I made the video, it was partly not all my fault. If you 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAyfTwRwgaN6
want, Collins, you and I can bet on it. Everyone listens to Sam. She's 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAkYgMFGPoCW
like some high-rank public figure. If she were to run for president, she1049Please respect copyright.PENANAFRNgSff0Uv
would be instated the very same day."1049Please respect copyright.PENANArmoQQxyxmh
Yang Hyun-suk, Lee, 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAvSudI2P8LX
G-Dragon and I laughed at Zoey's joke, except Collins. I knew he was 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAhXgE6gSgKd
pissed with what Zoey had said, but I had to admit, that was something 1049Please respect copyright.PENANATnv4A97BIR
even an angry person would laugh about.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAqRKsQDqBiA
Speaking about angry 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAMbb9DagNzp
people, I turned over to G-Dragon who was still laughing. It felt good 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAAQiNXvuj1g
to see him laugh and I smiled. But very soon, he will be back to the way1049Please respect copyright.PENANAtI2KbpIKKZ
he was. Just the thought of that made me swell up with sadness that I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAlNvamFM9fI
even had to face the other way so that no one would notice it all over 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAKofsFopoym
my face.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAgXbi34fFRP
"Zoey is one person you 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAp0kkYTDx9F
should never throw away in your life, Collins," said Yang Hyun-suk, 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA2VFDRN9iI5
holding Collins' shoulder with a bit of laughter on his face. "She's 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAQb9cPXMijK
just hilarious."1049Please respect copyright.PENANA5xT10DQkyP
"Ya, she's one of a kind," said G-Dragon.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA7efU2xze9c
"Ah, and how could I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA3h51VRICjg
forget about my lovely G-Dragon," said Zoey, as she came to stand beside1049Please respect copyright.PENANAgSlixZvki3
G-Dragon and hooked her hand around his elbow. "You looked awesome 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA1dfkd4ciQl
today. And handsome too."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAa8jDiZoJPj
"Wow, looks like Sam was right," said Yang Hyun-suk. "You do admire G-Dragon."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAkJGrr4dKp5
"Ya, no one knows me better than Sam," said Zoey with a grin. "If it were possible, I would gladly have dated G-Dragon."1049Please respect copyright.PENANA8HPy4FJbGg
"Don't even think about it," said Collins, pointing a finger at Zoey.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAwyOvsnHp3I
"I know. 'We're here 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAOmRpyDPjZR
just to collaborate with BigBang, yadda, yadda, that means no dating 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAzPvJD4GjDW
anyone of them.' I still remember that rule," said Zoey rolling her 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA5wgiXMDDD6
eyes.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAbinu5tkdQ3
"Sometimes I wish I could kill you," said Collins, shaking his head.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAMJ2eAu34TH
"But you can't, because you love me just as I love you, Collins," said Zoey, with a huge grin on her face.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA3wKWRAAnwf
"Hilarious," said Yang 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA1QLuTProX3
Hyun-suk. "We better get going. You three have to get that song ready, 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAN8gSULwPXa
while we, have other things to attend to."1049Please respect copyright.PENANA7K2XebQ71m
Oh, the song. For a 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA4Unopk0WlB
moment, I never wanted Yang Hyun-suk or anyone else to mention it. I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAr44qQ3RSzN
felt my heart beat faster and I felt like judgement day had finally 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAeroG4V6PeP
come.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAD351WwQIVr
We all found ourselves 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA5RAJvscsgH
in the elevator and I was quiet the whole way. The two managers were 1049Please respect copyright.PENANASb09hh9TcA
busy talking about something important, while Lee, G-Dragon and Zoey 1049Please respect copyright.PENANArhqXWJkF1S
were talking about the interview.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA3Nrz1ghWKI
When the elevator 1049Please respect copyright.PENANATqBAg01lwY
stopped, Zoey, G-Dragon and I got out and we dropped off on the floor to1049Please respect copyright.PENANAOvL0uDOC1R
the recording studios. Our managers and Lee continued on their way 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAK0lLWMsc6E
upwards in the elevator probably heading for Yang Hyun-suk's office.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAQXjq89WaWX
While the three of us 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA4Xrs2qYIRD
walked along the hallway, heading for one of the rooms, I couldn't help 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAJUM2xrjNgp
but fall behind G-Dragon and Zoey as the two walked ahead of me 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAoUf1mzcJNT
alongside each other. The two were so deep in their own little 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAfe2TNHREcl
conversation, I didn't feel like listening or joining them. At that 1049Please respect copyright.PENANACf1TgSm2xX
point, I felt like I didn't matter.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAjQ6XkBqhae
We found ourselves in one of the recording studio rooms and we found all our group members waiting for us.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAPm3PZwnfsB
"You're back!" Christine1049Please respect copyright.PENANARztPRl2JRT
ran towards us, coming straight for me and pulling me into a hug. "You 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAWPQttqthDP
were so brave standing up for Zoey like that."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAllQ8QSHOcv
"You know I don't like interviews," I said, trying to put up a smile. "I was actually scared."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAmYRvGul5Fc
"You didn't seem that way," said Taeyang. "You looked very calm as though you knew what you were doing."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAnNj0lNULvq
"And you also looked very pretty," said TOP, giving me a wink.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAWmHQKQFuaz
"Um, th-thanks," I said while my cheeks blushed after Christine had pulled away from me.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAjE3CArDBbt
"Ya, you're looking 1049Please respect copyright.PENANApxJUOLe2oi
prettier even now," said Seungri, staring at me with dreamy eyes. "I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAZ18KZHaMwk
would've come down there in the conference room and kissed you in front 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAkb92y8sA41
of the whole world."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAFbgtk23thL
Daesung who stood beside1049Please respect copyright.PENANAWTgywgfDAg
him slapped him on the shoulder. Seungri whined in pain while he held 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA5XPbi6VCki
his shoulder and stared at Daesung.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAcIFtXoagkL
"What?" Seungri asked. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAywtHSmDhLD
"You only want to cause trouble, do you? You should learn to respect Sam, you know," said Daesung.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAylaIVdQ6He
I couldn't help but get the feeling that Daesung was a little jealous. I couldn't help but smile to myself.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAMqpjVYbcKL
"Hello! Isn't anyone going to talk about the little scene that happened at the end of the interview?" Daniel asked.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAGOi0V83tl3
"Oh, the part where 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA6u15AX5AuX
G-Dragon saves Sam from falling?" Zoey asked. "If you're worried that 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAGhR6bGFYOl
people would find that romantic, I highly doubt it."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAk7zC17SArG
Highly doubt it? If 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAhPBo68drOQ
Daniel was thinking the same way I had earlier, people would start to 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAx3rWlnfRH6
make up a love story that barely even existed.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAWogUNzH5nv
"Well, fans do like to 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAKOnqO4Ve2k
make out a love story out of small things," said Taeyang, scratching his1049Please respect copyright.PENANACxJQVR6jPo
head. "I wouldn't be surprised if that happens."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAUFssdrT2nc
Oh, no. Looked like 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAvBfK3xpyFM
Taeyang was also on this one too. I wished for someone to change the 1049Please respect copyright.PENANADOTlWhbnt9
subject. This was starting to feel awkward, especially with G-Dragon 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAdEeZaJENsC
standing right in front of me.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAKse0ijM9GV
I stared at G-Dragon and1049Please respect copyright.PENANA45XnR35dsx
I could tell by the look on his face that he didn't want to hear a 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAhxSv5EufGX
single word concerning love stories. We had other serious things to 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA40TEfQkkU1
think about.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA1K8FF9i6Pu
"Can we drop that for 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAkaRGa19hpb
now and focus on the song instead?" G-Dragon suggested. "We don't have 1049Please respect copyright.PENANARkCvBXCIz2
much time and we need to work on it right away."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAL4ORG2EjKJ
"GD's right," I said. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAufYw64LuVa
"We all saw the reporter ask on how much progress we've made and Collins1049Please respect copyright.PENANAyBXH1jK74i
made an effort to cover for us. So, for the sake of our managers, let's1049Please respect copyright.PENANA4TGNMfoBqU
get to work."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAmxCJnN9go4
"But we have to vote again, remember?" TOP reminded us. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANANt80QJzXJn
Everyone fell silent and1049Please respect copyright.PENANA32kw42Tt1I
the room felt awkward. It was like the ghost of yesterday still haunted1049Please respect copyright.PENANAa3XiLXmmWw
us even now. Again, I still felt like it was all my fault.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAgM6WGmULtN
"Well, we all agreed yesterday to vote again," said G-Dragon. "So let's get settled and get this over with."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAbe75p5DJ7Q
When everyone went to 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAXujojOCrjr
settle down on the black leather seats, I stood on the same spot, deep 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAxSi4l9UR3z
in thought. Was all of this worth it? The last thing I wanted was for 1049Please respect copyright.PENANALu77mc7qO7
all of us to be divided because of my stupid suggestion. Maybe I was 1049Please respect copyright.PENANALgxDdXstzi
wrong this whole time and I shouldn't have done all of this in the first1049Please respect copyright.PENANAhdfuoNGZiu
place.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAjNed8Ggr0g
"Hey, Sam are you alright?" TOP asked. "You seem troubled."1049Please respect copyright.PENANA8rAJraDoN5
I came back to reality and I saw everyone staring at me with worried looks on their faces, except G-Dragon.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAHiyDD4gCuH
"Sam, are you okay?" Zoey asked when I didn't answer. "Something is up and you don't look so good. Tell us. What's wrong?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAM5cfWsywJB
I still didn't say a 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA9BMdg8gcbO
word as I played around with my fingers. I took in a deep breath and 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAAuaJ42fFxK
breathed out with my eyes closed, clenching my hands into fists. When I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAPRuG4HXmZk
opened my eyes, I looked on at the others and said:1049Please respect copyright.PENANAPWI0fNKdtU
"This voting thing is 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAlafbdRUsOx
pointless. I take back what I said yesterday. It's for the best if 1049Please respect copyright.PENANANEQcRnQpPh
G-Dragon and I work on the lyrics for the song instead."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAONFd22j5Bz
Again, the room fell 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAG4IHu73V6m
into an awkward silence. Everyone's eyes were on me and they looked 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAhyD4Z7np3x
surprised, except for G-Dragon. I couldn't tell whether he was smirking 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAZWdP3bafLY
or he decided to play stoic for a change.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA9emibUG0UX
"Wait, what?" Daniel asked. "Why?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAmvGWKqJ2l6
"Because, Daniel, 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAtV8Vv0z0lp
nothing is going to change," I said, looking at my brother. "The same 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAHz2VqsP5LP
thing will happen even today when we vote. It will end up in a tie 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAUBA4oC98sB
again. So, what's the point? I bet a lot of you have thought of it the 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAIet8JTkPYr
same way, haven't you?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANA07DhHIJqgs
No one said a word as they all looked at each other, apart from G-Dragon, who still had his eyes on me.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAhrmILaW9t3
"I think it's best this 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAGdFAOawNLX
way," I said, grabbing everyone's attention again. "We're going nowhere 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAeQ1ooJGWG8
like this and I should have realised it sooner."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAciU7gtmkWG
"Well, it's about time you came to your senses," said G-Dragon.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAPZ43S6wmKW
I felt like I had been given a slap on the face. And OUCH! It hurt like hell. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAbhayLZEwAY
"That's a little harsh, don't you think?" I asked.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAuOC3j8j6eV
"Well, it's true, isn't it?" G-Dragon asked, with his eyebrows raised.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAT15DBPCciZ
"Well, at least I'm bold enough to even admit that I was wrong."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAgttN3BSosL
"And you want me to give you credit for that, Samantha?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAX98f20CxTT
Samantha? Really? He 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAJlRi3b16BJ
called me by my full name. Okay, it was clear he was still mad, but he 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAE61CMMHgHE
shouldn't be expressing his anger in front of everyone else like that. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAObUtMFb3nM
He should be doing it to me and me alone. I was ready for what's to 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAPN71uYkPCk
come, but not with our group members around.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA18CHN4RtZv
"I don't think we should argue here," I said. "Why don't we go some place else and talk?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAPh3JDUhoyl
"And why should we?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAhNLpRQYlRy
"It's not right and you know it. If you want to get personal with me, at least do it with no one around."1049Please respect copyright.PENANA6c0OZYfgHk
"Oh, and now you're trying to play the good girl trying not to hurt anyone else?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAHnygtD0HTY
"That's what I'm meant to do, GD. This isn't right."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAER3sqrDkwk
"Sorry, Sam, but I'm 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAUR3TeLWope
rather comfortable here," G-Dragon leaned back on the chair with his 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAKsZ3CRsq26
hands behind his head and crossing his leg above the other.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA48tYKbqwE7
I shook my head in 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAYKi0P4VON5
disbelief. G-Dragon was totally unbelievable. Right now, I wasn't sure 1049Please respect copyright.PENANASJA8YlSJtk
whether to hate him or just feel sorry for him.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAU8uDE6vcAd
"Fine, then we'll stay here then," I said.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAx21LDrMbe2
"That's more like it," said G-Dragon, with a smirk on his face. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6G6E9k5dl
"You're so stubborn," I rolled my eyes at him.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAgpEbz49Dax
"Ya, well, I was born this way."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8JmvWa591
"Can we please start working on the song now?" I asked. "It seems like we don't have much time left."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAEiB9UQSvi9
"Okay, let's start."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAAEBDuYPYxq
"Umm, sorry to interfere1049Please respect copyright.PENANAht8mBNAQqy
in all of this, but are you serious right now?" Zoey asked, looking 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAZAHpAeTrsO
surprised and confused at the same time.1049Please respect copyright.PENANACWvjWa4H93
"What's wrong?" G-Dragon asked, shrugging his shoulders.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA3fGRUNGGJB
"I don't know if you are1049Please respect copyright.PENANAQrow3XpHpl
seeing this, but you two look like you're about to tear each other's 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAsGwlNIYrRu
throats out. Doesn't that bother you? And you want to work on the song 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAd5b1kPYFnl
together? Today?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAfwZ70Ltzag
Zoey was right. What was happening now looked more like the beginning of World War III, if not the end of the world.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAFLwFV3heI8
"I'm sorry, Zoey," I said. "But do we have a choice?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANA7SBt13gZqa
"Well, I have one. Why 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAF1Wq47BZs1
don't you two take a break from each other? You're scaring me and 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAGp4UQCg2lP
probably the whole lot of us too. Why don't you two cool down and work 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAxTRbF0yDy1
on the song tomorrow?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAKl519wNpqC
"Zoey's right," said Taeyang. "You two need to chill out. You both seem angry at each other."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAtHIhUeFjDi
"I'm not the angry one, he is," I said, pointing my finger at G-Dragon. "I'm just being reasonable!"1049Please respect copyright.PENANAn8lWXKW0pk
"I know, Sam. You've 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAlx7MmXgcYg
both agreed to work on the song together, but you can't go on like this.1049Please respect copyright.PENANADZPuGhul54
Who knows what may happen if we leave you two alone."1049Please respect copyright.PENANANgiawxZtRW
"Tae is right," said Mike. "I don't want to go back home with your beheaded dead body. Mum will kill us."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAn09JUT9VmE
"Okay, fine," I said, rubbing my temples and taking a deep breath. "You're right. Even I can't work like this."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAzOxsOcJ00F
I tried to calm myself 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAAyVVjhOJIg
down, trying to clear my head. I let my anger get the better of me. In 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAKoYulM84Le
fact, I couldn't tell if all this was anger or I was just annoyed 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAzepk7vP6E7
because G-Dragon was acting bigheaded.1049Please respect copyright.PENANANzp4ZO7zaS
"Looks like we will work1049Please respect copyright.PENANAor7Tn2CRmy
on it tomorrow then," said G-Dragon as he slowly got up from his seat. 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAbBbTyiMwfC
And with his hands in the pockets of his jeans, he slowly walked towards1049Please respect copyright.PENANAnKKV7lPZCS
me.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAJNTSByi59c
The last thing I wanted 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAIV3t1pKwlI
was a face to face confrontation with him because if he was going to do 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAL6DvadL6xR
or say something funny, I didn't know what I was going to do. But no. I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAOOLS7s58cE
wasn't going to let my anger get the better of me again. I didn't want 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAIolWKvdX17
to be angry at him. If there was anyone to be angry at, it was myself.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAa3yvKNkW7b
G-Dragon came close and 1049Please respect copyright.PENANASKFWTqUbXY
he stared at me with his intimidating eyes. At first, those eyes used to1049Please respect copyright.PENANAyt4LdTWIac
make me melt like jelly, but now, I couldn't tell where that feeling 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAkZFcPWamub
went. Maybe it's because those eyes weren't there to intimidate but they1049Please respect copyright.PENANAEBZ9EnbdMo
were full of anger too.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAHrDy25gsWa
He stopped a few inches 1049Please respect copyright.PENANArXFKICcxvf
away from me and I didn't back away. Earlier on, I would. But this time,1049Please respect copyright.PENANAMmgdy84NZb
I wasn't afraid anymore. I was tired of being scared.1049Please respect copyright.PENANACppxpTkTlz
"We'll meet tomorrow soon after practise, capish?" G-Dragon asked.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAsURSSkzcSQ
"Capish," I replied, without any hint of emotion.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAC0FrN7Az65
"Good. You better get some aspirin and rest. It looks like your head is about to explode and we don't want that, do we?"1049Please respect copyright.PENANALJuaHp8vXa
"No, we don't."1049Please respect copyright.PENANASz2sORmUZ6
"That's my little 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAmqlALqs8sQ
kitty." G-Dragon smiled at me and walked away, our shoulders brushing 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA1jofqMkfoN
each other, and he went out through the door.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAsbJhSfBLOz
"Well, that was close," said TOP. "For a second, I thought this whole place was about to blow up."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAxwhvQKbd3s
"Ya, I thought I was going to watch a Mortal Kombart fight," said Mike.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAsUDZjpJ0em
"Seriously? You're 1049Please respect copyright.PENANATxcIuxnvzj
bringing Mortal Kombart into this?" I asked Mike with my eyebrow raised.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAiuGAeMUhjj
Somehow, I wanted to laugh at the joke, but I couldn't.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAyukCAiWHMQ
"Come to think of it," 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAl5jYlCEUZp
said Zoey, staring at Mike. "You're right. Remind me of those two 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA0ruquI6aGe
characters that hate each other so much."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAJo7szHw60d
"Scorpion and Subzero," said Daniel.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAQYKDMw27NJ
"So, in this case, Scorpion is G-Dragon," said Seungri, who seemed to be enjoying himself with this.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAGLkI56oeE0
"Ya, it suits him since Scorpion and dragon kind of go together because of fire," said Daesung.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA1HgR1yj9Es
"Guys, are you seriously listening to yourselves right now?" I asked.1049Please respect copyright.PENANATk9pIP1Skx
But no one answered me as they continued their Mortal Kombart fantasy.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA7QFcNtjHx7
"And Sam is Subzero," said Daniel.1049Please respect copyright.PENANA9X1iE84BIZ
"Ya, because she is all cool and chilled like ice and doesn't crack under pressure," said TOP.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAEVmwxhoUfl
"True, but also because Subzero is her favourite Mortal Kombart character," said Christine.1049Please respect copyright.PENANABbGqaG3VZi
"Oh, ya, I forgot about that," said Mike.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAhgvQouHKJ9
This was getting ridiculous and I shook my head in disbelief.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAt1rRtq8Sep
"So this whole thing is like a fire and ice relationship?" Taeyang asked.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAhh7NqJnsow
Oh great! Not Taeyang too! The argument G-Dragon and I had created a story in these guy's heads.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAKbYmX8C6q0
"Ya, I'm already 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAnQispl0zCF
imagining it," said Zoey, staring off into a distance, obviously in her 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAuIkRLf9nsy
imagination. "G-Dragon and Sam, like Scorpion and Subzero."1049Please respect copyright.PENANAV6e2YYYjK6
"Ya, I can imagine it too," said Mike, also staring off into a distance.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAzm4u9VzYC4
"Sam looks so hot in her Subzero outfit," said Seungri, also deep in thought and biting his lower lip.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAG1662IC7Cx
"So hot," said TOP, nodding his head absent mindley.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAekbN6J9K7H
"So does GD in Scorpion's outfit," said Zoey.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAY3Uhtz5Obi
"Ya, their relationship is now like fire and ice," said Daesung. "Let's just see who wins."1049Please respect copyright.PENANApRmS72RQfy
As I watched the others 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAS6eE4wHyw8
share out their silly ideas of how the fight would turn out, I couldn't 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAAz9ZCLU5i3
help but realise that they were right. Right now, GD and I weren't okay 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAjGPcEf7vm2
at all. To the outside world, we were friends, but to ourselves and our 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA7EtoPieosi
closet friends, we weren't. One moment we were smiling at each other but1049Please respect copyright.PENANABUpsaSIy4a
soon afterwards we were fighting again.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAChGEICuttq
I didn't know how all 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAYG4bgRihiB
this was going to end, but if G-Dragon and I didn't resolve our issue 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAxrHEImh2Av
soon, we might not just hurt each other but also the people around us, 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAlOZU3L1g0g
especially our group members. And I wasn't going to let that happen.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAKnf0flE1A3
If that was the case, I 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAkVgvMqD1Bw
had to win this no matter what. I didn't care if I was going to end up 1049Please respect copyright.PENANA4Klqs9KOTt
getting burnt. I created this mess and I had to fix it no matter the 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAvzkeA6eQmk
cost. Even if it meant I had to play along like the others. That 1049Please respect copyright.PENANAXI8GGAyeyw
G-Dragon is Scorpion and I am Subzero.1049Please respect copyright.PENANAewTH8KhcdN
That he is fire and I am ice.
