I was looking out 995Please respect copyright.PENANAiP27MN8MWQ
through the car window on an early Thursday morning as we were being 995Please respect copyright.PENANAehETevkKqo
driven to YG. I felt so much had happened since we got here, it felt 995Please respect copyright.PENANAPfq9ZMeS6R
like we had stayed in South Korea for so long when its only been five 995Please respect copyright.PENANAHpYnP1b5ai
days. I already felt homesick and the feeling of going to YG this 995Please respect copyright.PENANA7FnBgSfMhM
morning, made me nervous.995Please respect copyright.PENANA9pUuaRa0iU
I didn't know what to 995Please respect copyright.PENANA1kdxNYAQfb
expect when I get there. Yesterday was a total disaster and I prayed 995Please respect copyright.PENANAAIdhf4flvw
that today it wouldn't be the same. But deep down, I knew I had to 995Please respect copyright.PENANAOSNEVze7JQ
prepare myself for what's to come. 995Please respect copyright.PENANA5e73vFTE7a
Although the other 995Please respect copyright.PENANAbYoOYcDwND
Toxins and I were still on speaking terms like nothing had happened 995Please respect copyright.PENANA17wH7xN6Zl
during lunch yesterday, I could somehow feel the tension amongst 995Please respect copyright.PENANAi2f5NrTmZz
ourselves. It's like we were now divided ever since I had suggested on 995Please respect copyright.PENANAZCOqTBRJV7
on all of us working on the lyrics for the song. Mike, Daniel and I on 995Please respect copyright.PENANAGKXZBqFwHg
one side, Zoey and Christine on the other. How I wish it never came to 995Please respect copyright.PENANA3zCCFrGtqR
this and I regretted every moment of it. But as the saying goes, what's 995Please respect copyright.PENANAvuHSwCDSez
done is done.995Please respect copyright.PENANAbtLmBOnchX
We were all seated in 995Please respect copyright.PENANAI5FsWvLCuv
the car, the others talking amongst themselves with Lee and Collins 995Please respect copyright.PENANAdiIkt8zUjy
while I was quiet and feeling out of place. We hadn't told Lee and 995Please respect copyright.PENANA1k461N6ti5
Collins about our little conflict yesterday. We decided not to tell them995Please respect copyright.PENANA4WJOJE3wdu
until we came to a final decision. That's if it will even be necessary.995Please respect copyright.PENANA8RkSikuJZI
"Looks like someone is 995Please respect copyright.PENANAHDAYM8ix2F
deep in their thoughts this morning," said Collins who sat in the front 995Please respect copyright.PENANAGaDalgPpTA
seat of the car and was looking at me through the rearview mirror.995Please respect copyright.PENANAJK0zDR2kup
"I just miss home, that's all," I said.995Please respect copyright.PENANAvNpsJ1myAO
"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."995Please respect copyright.PENANAlJcCul3Hij
"Ya, sure." I tried to put up a smile, but it felt pointless.995Please respect copyright.PENANAR0PleWsQTZ
We finally arrived at 995Please respect copyright.PENANAXrYLpaMHx5
our destination and when we all got out of the car, I couldn't help but 995Please respect copyright.PENANA2EVvgjFvLA
feel nervous. The five of us followed Collins and Lee into the YG 995Please respect copyright.PENANALIbxoFcYAh
building. As usual, we first had to go for practice. We left Collins and995Please respect copyright.PENANAllS72zbiGh
Lee downstairs on the ground floor, while the rest of us took the 995Please respect copyright.PENANAZlyVDFPqdO
elevator heading for the changing rooms.995Please respect copyright.PENANADl5IfolBI9
After changing, we all met in one of the dance studios, ready for practice.995Please respect copyright.PENANAD2REMbhzWw
"So, what should we do first?" I asked. "Go through the same routine as always or come up with some new dance moves?"995Please respect copyright.PENANAuj8KTsJhmS
"I don't see why we 995Please respect copyright.PENANAI28Y6NScIg
should come up with new dance moves," said Zoey. "I mean, it's not like 995Please respect copyright.PENANAPni7OXeLlR
we have come up with a new song yet or anything."995Please respect copyright.PENANAzZZonb6DUL
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.995Please respect copyright.PENANAjTZ0uRJsW4
"But we always come up 995Please respect copyright.PENANA68UmjLiMJp
with new dance moves even without a new song," said Mike. "I've come up 995Please respect copyright.PENANAvrxH9KjXJ7
with some pretty good moves and I think we should try them out."995Please respect copyright.PENANAT1ozHVehlQ
"Well, okay then," said Zoey, shrugging her shoulders as though in doubt. "Let's give it a shot."995Please respect copyright.PENANASMxTCuMOGv
"Zoey, if you want you can just sit back and watch," I said. "It seems to me you don't want to do this."995Please respect copyright.PENANAYe7NSA4zuI
"No, I want to, believe me," said Zoey.995Please respect copyright.PENANADQztK9S8Xk
"Okay, if you say so," I turned to Mike. "So, what new ideas do you have?"995Please respect copyright.PENANAfnl4K3iu0p
Mike soon begun teaching995Please respect copyright.PENANA06sZYXPBuE
us some of the dance moves he had come up with and without fail, we all995Please respect copyright.PENANAci3UFQYwdw
got to know them quickly even when we made a few mistakes here and 995Please respect copyright.PENANA00GxkMJm5X
there. We soon got a hang of it after going through it a number of 995Please respect copyright.PENANAAArsPGUiHP
times, it turned out to be perfect and we liked it. Sometimes back home 995Please respect copyright.PENANAMMZWl0fY4b
when our choreographer, Jimmy wasn't available, Mike would step in and 995Please respect copyright.PENANAshtnIFmbjk
act as our choreographer instead. Most of the time, the two would both 995Please respect copyright.PENANA74UBg5TLgz
work together, and they made a pretty good team.995Please respect copyright.PENANAPp6pjvol4v
After going through the 995Please respect copyright.PENANALzixEFMc74
dance moves flawlessly with what seemed like the fourth time, we decided995Please respect copyright.PENANAxHkrES0mgH
to take a break. And when I went to collect my water bottle on a rack 995Please respect copyright.PENANAcwcqYMbXBU
where we laid our training bags, I noticed from the corner of my eye 995Please respect copyright.PENANAyR8ckfwkSP
that the door stood slightly open. That's weird. The last time I 995Please respect copyright.PENANAfcMt5Y5HKI
checked, the door was closed and I am pretty sure of it.995Please respect copyright.PENANA5smSNtXQSB
When I turned to face 995Please respect copyright.PENANAnLbwjmgaHL
the door, I noticed a shadow, and it moved. Someone was definitely 995Please respect copyright.PENANA9HrtL2sohn
behind the door. I started to walk towards it and when I got to the 995Please respect copyright.PENANA79JXvkAabL
door, I was surprised with what I saw. 995Please respect copyright.PENANAe4e2Z28SsD
Standing behind the door995Please respect copyright.PENANAbi1qyYu4CT
were two young trainees, probably in their teens, a male and female. 995Please respect copyright.PENANAtYdt5Rlacw
When I saw them face to face behind the door, they seemed frightened and995Please respect copyright.PENANABu6yMcF3Kr
they bowed their heads.995Please respect copyright.PENANAqFiroXPxpe
At that moment I didn't have any words to say as I kept staring at them.995Please respect copyright.PENANANuM72tSrd7
"Hey, Sam, who is by the door?" Christine called out to me.995Please respect copyright.PENANAJatBqWUf1F
I couldn't even reply. I995Please respect copyright.PENANABnzfwH12t1
didn't even know where to start explaining to Christine that there were995Please respect copyright.PENANAqZyAf40g9h
young trainees by the door, who were probably watching us practice.995Please respect copyright.PENANAPgwHYUz7PU
Before I could say anything, the girl said, "we're sorry. We didn't mean to spy on you while you were practising."995Please respect copyright.PENANAOaBvNztkme
"Yes, we're sorry," said the boy. "We were just leaving."995Please respect copyright.PENANAykDTHJCz10
With their heads still bowed low, they slowly started to back away.995Please respect copyright.PENANA0ZxwJMZzRg
"Wait, stop," I said.995Please respect copyright.PENANAOlCyJZzYR7
The two trainees immediately stopped as though they were robots. It felt a little weird, but I quickly brushed off the feeling.995Please respect copyright.PENANAjLffgObkEk
"Please, come in," I said, stepping aside and widening the door for them.995Please respect copyright.PENANANITEO6mooq
For a moment, the 995Please respect copyright.PENANAx5IasjQilj
trainees looked on at me with scared looks on their faces. I can tell 995Please respect copyright.PENANAknk1jubsRC
why. It was probably some of the rules set around the place and they 995Please respect copyright.PENANAUCtA0HYNjh
must have found it quiet weird that I, the famous B.K, had told them to 995Please respect copyright.PENANAmMDC13BoxX
come in.995Please respect copyright.PENANAIToXmHYuqC
"아니요 (Aniyo)," said the 995Please respect copyright.PENANAJMnKqAULxd
boy. I recognised that he said 'no'. I don't know Korean, but there were995Please respect copyright.PENANARb0L4ybb0m
some basic words I got to know so far from watching some K-Drama 995Please respect copyright.PENANAlTA8nxlbSL
series.995Please respect copyright.PENANA4MeVTZpU5A
"I mean, no," said the boy, this time in English. "That won't be necessary."995Please respect copyright.PENANAvPJulT644B
"No, I insist," I said. "Come on in, we don't bite."995Please respect copyright.PENANA8KwNPH7cns
Zoey soon appeared behind me and asked, "what's going on? Are these fans of ours?"995Please respect copyright.PENANAzcfDmMPYfL
"Well, maybe," I said. "Don't try to intimidate them. You know you scare people."995Please respect copyright.PENANAUvnE4CufeY
"No, I don't," Zoey 995Please respect copyright.PENANAKFPEXFpYis
turned to face the trainees and said, "you guys can come on in and 995Please respect copyright.PENANAWFpzPHldwL
practice with us. You're YG trainees, right?"995Please respect copyright.PENANA9NOzVifp7O
The two trainees 995Please respect copyright.PENANAH5ADZTybkK
nervously nodded, still with their heads bowed low. I looked on at the 995Please respect copyright.PENANAvVvDgF38p9
trainees, then at Zoey, then back at the trainees again.995Please respect copyright.PENANAdXSnQuI0WT
"If you are worried 995Please respect copyright.PENANA16jlnq8Cvd
about getting in trouble with Yang Hyun-suk, don't worry about it," I 995Please respect copyright.PENANAVXXBOq6x9i
said. "You can come and practice with us. You don't have to be afraid."995Please respect copyright.PENANAbyMZFof0HC
The two trainees looked 995Please respect copyright.PENANAulXtQ0EDRy
at me and this time, they looked really excited. By the looks on their 995Please respect copyright.PENANAoYikSKpGtI
faces, I bet they were fans, and probably the idea of dancing with The 995Please respect copyright.PENANAbiI03rv6OM
Toxins seemed like a dream come true. I knew how that felt, because once995Please respect copyright.PENANAwR1qnauRCM
upon a time, I was once in their shoes.995Please respect copyright.PENANAyZVWzP8hNo
"Re-really?" the girl asked, looking at me with excitement in her eyes.995Please respect copyright.PENANAvKQS8tjkJ7
"Ya, sure. Why not?" I 995Please respect copyright.PENANAJuZPKijZef
jerked my head to the side, telling them to come in. I knew I was 995Please respect copyright.PENANAZT6j1OQ3ry
already in trouble with Yang Hyun-suk because of what happened at 995Please respect copyright.PENANA6yupiak0q2
Caribbean Bay, so I didn't mind if I got into more trouble just because 995Please respect copyright.PENANA3BssCDeAik
of allowing innocent trainees to come and practice with us.995Please respect copyright.PENANANVQo3ga95s
The trainees gladly followed as Zoey and I led the way.995Please respect copyright.PENANA8ThZcIBsEI
"Oh, I see you brought in some friends," said Daniel as he saw us approaching. "Welcome guys."995Please respect copyright.PENANAK2ysXe4hfO
"Thank you," said the two trainees at the same time, with huge big smiles on their faces.995Please respect copyright.PENANA4GUjFNCBXt
"You guys don't mind if they join us, do you?" I asked the others.995Please respect copyright.PENANAH0Y20gvpGc
"Not at all," said Mike.995Please respect copyright.PENANA1iDQwVDkmb
"Ya, it's good to have people around, much less our fans," said Christine. "It's going to be so much fun."995Please respect copyright.PENANA2JyZjksa8E
"Wow, this is like a dream come true," said the girl. "I never knew I would be dancing with you guys."995Please respect copyright.PENANAMGJJtom8TN
"You better believe it, girl," said Zoey, giving the girl a wink. "Dreams do come true."995Please respect copyright.PENANANR26i9jH6N
"So, should we teach them the new dance moves we have been working on?" Mike asked as he turned to me.995Please respect copyright.PENANAcnzKfai9Yq
"Ya, sure," I said. "It's okay with me."995Please respect copyright.PENANAvuApCjMTiC
Mike soon started to 995Please respect copyright.PENANAjwlE10OLbg
teach the trainees the dance moves and surprisingly, they got to learn 995Please respect copyright.PENANAkw45c5dS3P
it quicker than I anticipated. They were really talented, I had to give 995Please respect copyright.PENANAoWeucfItEI
them credit for that.995Please respect copyright.PENANADBoWoJNch6
"Wow, for trainees, you're really good," said Mike, as he turned to face them.995Please respect copyright.PENANAaEUzSxbmcn
"We try," said the boy. "We have been watching you practise, so it wasn't that hard."995Please respect copyright.PENANAkTvKadLdX1
"We didn't get to know your names," said Daniel.995Please respect copyright.PENANAFXl6lqY4Kz
"I'm Soo Mi," said the girl.995Please respect copyright.PENANA0zFmXjaWE4
"I'm Young Jin," said the boy.995Please respect copyright.PENANAdnBQDw0hbh
"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?"995Please respect copyright.PENANAnlR8WiMBkK
Everyone agreed. We 995Please respect copyright.PENANAxdUKlX63m4
positioned ourselves and started going through the moves again and it 995Please respect copyright.PENANALSB716bIWc
was awesome. When we were done, everyone cheered and we all gave each 995Please respect copyright.PENANAUMSKkh4jYq
other high fives.995Please respect copyright.PENANACxEqGmBAwD
"This is so much fun," I said.995Please respect copyright.PENANAWyihaBl9QA
"Ya, I know, we should be doing this more often with other trainees," said Mike.995Please respect copyright.PENANASJ3LchjwT3
"Ya, but we have to finish this dance routine, Mike," said Zoey. "So, work on it."995Please respect copyright.PENANAG1HVMRWz3G
While I turned to talk to the trainees, I noticed Lee come into the studio. And she seemed to be coming straight for me.995Please respect copyright.PENANA3pKBytAMcJ
"Sam, we need to go," said Lee as she came close.995Please respect copyright.PENANApLb1zs2Prp
"Go? Go where?" I asked looking confused.995Please respect copyright.PENANAj2bN6qXpJu
"The reporters are here, you know, over the video of you and G-Dragon."995Please respect copyright.PENANALvRv6Sps8H
Yikes! I was enjoying 995Please respect copyright.PENANAPJqA4VVtv9
myself with practice and being friends with the trainees, I forgot all 995Please respect copyright.PENANAIsCsDk2KW2
about the video. I wish the reporters should just forget about the 995Please respect copyright.PENANAsbQQr9spA2
stupid video for once and let it be.995Please respect copyright.PENANAW1W1hu9InA
But that wasn't my only 995Please respect copyright.PENANARyCbS5GOBl
fear. I am going to be with GD for the interview and the thought of 995Please respect copyright.PENANAHSVeeEg3Sd
being next to him somehow made me nervous. I realised that I had 995Please respect copyright.PENANAiLJPMVtiVt
goosebumps all over my arms just at the thought of it. I just hope he 995Please respect copyright.PENANAOlcYi4ca5c
isn't mad at me anymore. But I was going to trust my gut and say that he995Please respect copyright.PENANAbEKflYW2Sw
probably still is.995Please respect copyright.PENANA91wtUiz3i7
"Wait, they are having their interview today?" Zoey asked.995Please respect copyright.PENANA9IKKD3Z3qr
"Yes, and right now," said Lee. "Go and freshen up, Sam. You must be ready within fifteen minutes."995Please respect copyright.PENANAgi4RIOwDQP
"Um, okay," I said. I could even hear my voice breaking. 995Please respect copyright.PENANAfGzV91Ctxt
"Is GD already here?" Christine asked.995Please respect copyright.PENANAA7q9m8S0ec
When Christine asked the995Please respect copyright.PENANARi9gelEgaG
question, I felt my heart stop beating. Eish! I was nervous for sure. 995Please respect copyright.PENANAEYUj85g1fG
The thought of GD being here almost made me want to run.995Please respect copyright.PENANAsl9MPV9Vt6
"No, but he will be here any moment," Lee replied. "Come on, Sam. You better take a shower."995Please respect copyright.PENANArVkhoU3aSq
Somehow, it felt good 995Please respect copyright.PENANATytTf5vRXl
that I was going to take a shower. Maybe I would cool off and try to 995Please respect copyright.PENANA80TQLbCwFK
calm down with all of this. But I felt that wasn't going to be the case.995Please respect copyright.PENANAlvTcpoaojV
"See you later, guys," I said as I followed Lee who led the way out of the studio.995Please respect copyright.PENANAnPKrZ2e5dr
Everyone waved and 995Please respect copyright.PENANAfgpE5VWsGl
wished me luck. Dealing with reporters wasn't easy and you just didn't 995Please respect copyright.PENANAJDU1SB4ftX
need luck to confront them. You needed guts and confidence.995Please respect copyright.PENANA3yFRQd4UqS
I needed luck to be on my side though, because dealing with G-Dragon wasn't going to be easy.995Please respect copyright.PENANAsOxQwvKeN3
***995Please respect copyright.PENANAxuEUxRKoPG
The make-up artists were995Please respect copyright.PENANAn7YNlIJX3R
done powdering my face and my hair was all combed and tied up in a pony995Please respect copyright.PENANAAReVds8QvD
tail. I wanted to look simple in front of the cameras and reporters 995Please respect copyright.PENANAUb2lfBqnIq
just like I always have. Except whenever I have to shoot for music 995Please respect copyright.PENANADJrC1zAc15
videos and taking photo shoots, I have to apply make-up just to fit in 995Please respect copyright.PENANALPmMb8aUPk
with the scene.995Please respect copyright.PENANA9TFAxdgRJN
When the make-up artists995Please respect copyright.PENANAyXIrVbEbDt
were done and I was applying pink lip gloss on my lips, I heard quick 995Please respect copyright.PENANAFElbOqDb4l
chattering behind me and someone mentioned G-Dragon's name. I turned to 995Please respect copyright.PENANACNLVh9mc5F
look behind me and I saw G-Dragon entering the dressing room.995Please respect copyright.PENANAZX1Are1iMX
My heart skipped a beat 995Please respect copyright.PENANAj3HhmqjKxd
as I watched him. He didn't seem to notice me at first because of the 995Please respect copyright.PENANAHFwWJDvu7w
make-up artists and clothe designers that surrounded him trying to 995Please respect copyright.PENANA1eefjcdxIt
figure out if he needed a bit of make-up and a change of clothes. But 995Please respect copyright.PENANAo5d3FctiwX
just the way he was dressed seemed okay to me and they seemed to have 995Please respect copyright.PENANAMIbm7DzcJF
noticed that too because, they backed away from him and went on to do 995Please respect copyright.PENANALQwmHzQjoJ
their own things.995Please respect copyright.PENANAnfrftqeUQI
He dyed his hair blonde 995Please respect copyright.PENANAapi0g2AXdd
this time around and it matched with his white fancy jacket with gold 995Please respect copyright.PENANARkYQQftXr4
studs on the collar and a black shirt beneath. They never call him a 995Please respect copyright.PENANAWYz6cwBSJg
fashionista for nothing.995Please respect copyright.PENANA6AelzGJTM1
When he looked in my direction, he saw me and he immediately looked the other way as though I was nothing.995Please respect copyright.PENANAcMw6eHrWHP
Ouch! That's gotta hurt!995Please respect copyright.PENANAJr5br4Jyr6
I felt my face grow hot in embarrassment. He was still mad at me. I 995Please respect copyright.PENANAwNURROnzwC
slowly turned to face the mirror again trying to act like nothing was 995Please respect copyright.PENANAhJGLJl8N0Z
wrong, when I was actually hurt.995Please respect copyright.PENANA4WHvxjwZN8
Through the mirror, I 995Please respect copyright.PENANAcPEksT61x3
saw G-Dragon take a seat on the other side of the dressing room facing a995Please respect copyright.PENANA270yb8M9sC
mirror. He was looking down on his phone, probably texting or 995Please respect copyright.PENANABYGo6h9uoe
something, and I continued to stare at him.995Please respect copyright.PENANARNbczLfGZY
G-Dragon looked up at 995Please respect copyright.PENANAbFIocPhq0H
the mirror in front of him and I bet he saw me looking at him through my995Please respect copyright.PENANArIlKilBkN5
mirror because he had a funny look on his face and he went back to 995Please respect copyright.PENANAc5y0Uhog8Q
looking at his phone. Bummer! I could tell by the way he looked at the 995Please respect copyright.PENANArgzY0nao6I
mirror that he obviously saw me looking at him. I sighed in deep regret 995Please respect copyright.PENANA6gZJVGpwV5
and looked the other way. I had never felt so alone.995Please respect copyright.PENANAMNtP1xErH1
Then all of the sudden, 995Please respect copyright.PENANAEdFNIQUIQ5
someone behind me held my shoulders and I almost jumped in fright. I 995Please respect copyright.PENANAvjYS0kZJjJ
looked behind me and there stood Daesung. 995Please respect copyright.PENANA5yN6JASxN3
"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?"995Please respect copyright.PENANAPo9tbOqW7d
At that moment, I was so995Please respect copyright.PENANAjrynti00ps
glad that he was here. Right now I needed someone to talk to. I smiled 995Please respect copyright.PENANAfT4lOAJPkb
back up at him. His smile and his presence seemed to have brighten my 995Please respect copyright.PENANAlTZTqTXTjd
mood a little.995Please respect copyright.PENANAX64Qsn0tMD
"Take a seat and I'll tell you," I said.995Please respect copyright.PENANAuOrMl1p5nl
"Okay, sounds serious," said Daesung as he grabbed a chair and sat next to me.995Please respect copyright.PENANAQhfUWpBabK
When I looked at 995Please respect copyright.PENANAhVCX1zhucR
Daesung, I felt myself blush. With our shoulders almost brushing each 995Please respect copyright.PENANA4bXtDWS2E8
other, I could feel the electric pull between us and I hope he wasn't 995Please respect copyright.PENANADQvGCArIQq
feeling it too. It brought back memories of what happened the day before995Please respect copyright.PENANAfhr17IdGxA
yesterday. The two of us hadn't even tried to bring up that topic yet. 995Please respect copyright.PENANA4kaC2Md8F9
Maybe we never will.995Please respect copyright.PENANAxUWEwqdm48
"So, tell me, what's wrong?" Daesung asked.995Please respect copyright.PENANAMgGsLbKVKT
"Everything is wrong," I slowly replied.995Please respect copyright.PENANA9AlpXKDNwn
"Is it about yesterday?"995Please respect copyright.PENANAcbqxoDR2sK
"Ya, it is."995Please respect copyright.PENANAHacgrmrxOV
Daesung looked behind 995Please respect copyright.PENANA6ZNFNtZow1
him because he knew what I was taking about. I also turned and G-Dragon 995Please respect copyright.PENANAUvCieQ4ZxF
was still on his phone ignoring everyone around him. He seemed lost in 995Please respect copyright.PENANAFCpC3przcy
his own world.995Please respect copyright.PENANAYIxKtgRxuZ
"He's still mad, isn't he?" Daesung asked as he turned to face me.995Please respect copyright.PENANARuNDekCduu
"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."995Please respect copyright.PENANAtMLy2w1E6q
"Let's just hope he doesn't stay that way for long."995Please respect copyright.PENANAUYa2ohtfF6
"I hope so too. But why do I get the feeling that this is only going to get worse?"995Please respect copyright.PENANACluWQDwyzR
"Stop thinking like that, okay?" Daesung held my hand that was on my lap. That sent tingles up my arm and down my spine.995Please respect copyright.PENANAbscq04REg5
"I can't, Daesung," I said. "My gut feeling has never failed me before. Why should it now?"995Please respect copyright.PENANAcVcVkUV2TJ
"I don't have the answer to that. And it seems to me you really trust your gut a lot."995Please respect copyright.PENANAotPO30tnyb
"Dah, I always do," I said rolling my eyes playfully as I smiled.995Please respect copyright.PENANAGuG8pq1hJB
Daesung laughed and that995Please respect copyright.PENANA83QIpvcNdK
caused me to laugh also. I felt so relieved that I shared this with 995Please respect copyright.PENANAVsjvff8Z6b
Daesung. He is so nice, caring and understanding, just like Taeyang.995Please respect copyright.PENANA6Hdp9i3DEI
I soon felt someone's 995Please respect copyright.PENANA5b9HW15Tp9
eyes on me as I laughed. I looked behind me. For a moment, I had a 995Please respect copyright.PENANAdgNcUFgCOJ
feeling that G-Dragon was staring at us through the mirror, but his eyes995Please respect copyright.PENANAdwF7j1Do7Y
were still on the phone. Maybe I was just imagining things.995Please respect copyright.PENANAd190JrBT5m
Lee suddenly came in the dressing room and said, "Sam, Ji Yong, it's time to go. The reporters are waiting."995Please respect copyright.PENANAXT2Ih8I3rK
I quickly stood up and 995Please respect copyright.PENANAtMaHkjEzgk
checked if my clothes were alright. I was wearing a blue summer dress 995Please respect copyright.PENANAf6VVRXVigV
with purple flowers on it and white flats.995Please respect copyright.PENANAEb9YXR93PC
"You look beautiful, Sam," said Daesung. "Just stunning."995Please respect copyright.PENANA3FvGWRt3Rh
I smiled and I blushed like crazy. Right now, I had to focus on the interview and Daesung was sweeping me off my feet.995Please respect copyright.PENANA4vOQloW8WY
"Thanks, Daesung," I smiled, as I continued to blush.995Please respect copyright.PENANAOeO1ksguXW
I noticed G-Dragon stare995Please respect copyright.PENANAHpnvpXDiMr
at us as he stood up from his chair. And when I turned to face him, he 995Please respect copyright.PENANAGbnE2p2gPf
quickly looked away and walked out of the dressing room, bypassing Lee 995Please respect copyright.PENANArIRCMU01mb
who was by the door. For a moment, the room was silent as everyone, 995Please respect copyright.PENANADRYukv88iS
including the people who worked around the dressing room, noticed 995Please respect copyright.PENANAbl6xKFXBgI
G-Dragon's odd behaviour.995Please respect copyright.PENANAJcEPN1ZrZ8
"Wow. What's wrong with him?" Lee asked as she pointed her thumb down the hall where G-Dragon had passed.995Please respect copyright.PENANArW8LaOuNBo
"Long story," I answered. "We better go."995Please respect copyright.PENANAjB6UpJ8vYU
Lee nodded her head and I turned to face Daesung.995Please respect copyright.PENANAhzsLwCbtx7
"You'll be fine, don't worry about it," said Daesung as he smiled at me.995Please respect copyright.PENANAEv7kIknd4k
"Thanks," I tried to put up a smile, but it all felt useless.995Please respect copyright.PENANAY12FpPHf8q
Lee and I walked out of 995Please respect copyright.PENANArLGKdvOQah
the dressing room together and it seemed like G-Dragon had already taken995Please respect copyright.PENANAqgNBKvdBTV
off into the elevator without us because he wasn't in the hallway. The 995Please respect copyright.PENANAQAh4Ktt8m2
guilt came back to settle within me and I couldn't help but blame myself995Please respect copyright.PENANAdiRXPCG9RP
that it was all my fault he was acting this way.995Please respect copyright.PENANAubSh7DvRB3
When Lee and I got into 995Please respect copyright.PENANAeYqumAAbFr
the elevator, she asked, "why does G-Dragon seem so upset? I noticed the995Please respect copyright.PENANA1gycmeBZW6
way he looked at you. Weren't you supposed to be mad at him for what 995Please respect copyright.PENANAbVdmz8uCRA
happened at Caribbean Bay?"995Please respect copyright.PENANAiAvRzyAsTe
"A lot has happened that995Please respect copyright.PENANA1iCZLkpvsg
you don't know about, Lee," I said, staring at my feet as the elevator 995Please respect copyright.PENANAgjOtP2yKRq
continued to move. "So much that I can't explain."995Please respect copyright.PENANAFnYtCzL84D
"Like what? I heard you guys had lunch yesterday and things didn't turn out well."995Please respect copyright.PENANAqmP1mmq0Fe
"Where did you hear that from?" I asked as I quickly turned to look at her.995Please respect copyright.PENANAmKXGKtFdn1
"Too much gossip among 995Please respect copyright.PENANAbV7rejQCa7
the working staff at the hotel," said Lee with a smile. "Don't worry 995Please respect copyright.PENANAJtEJtRmcLe
though. They said it didn't seem so serious."995Please respect copyright.PENANAzMktFeONwj
"Wait? You understand Korean?" I grew even more surprised when that thought suddenly dawned on me.995Please respect copyright.PENANAB6QjCdjBOq
"Dah," said Lee, rolling995Please respect copyright.PENANAXT6bM1Yop6
her eyes and the elevator doors slid open. "Why do you think I was able995Please respect copyright.PENANAjmaXMaiZDx
to hold Yang Hyun-suk and Collins for so long at YG? Oh, and don't tell995Please respect copyright.PENANAyD3lIaun6d
Collins. He doesn't know either."995Please respect copyright.PENANA8YeTTrWru6
"You never told me what happened," I said as the two of us stepped out of the elevator.995Please respect copyright.PENANAt688zzXPTy
"Well, I think the both 995Please respect copyright.PENANA2P6tGypWsj
of us have a lot of catching up to do after this," said Lee as we both 995Please respect copyright.PENANAe9kGHyNhBH
walked down the hallway and turned round the corner. "Right now, it's 995Please respect copyright.PENANADTQ9dmVKbs
showtime."995Please respect copyright.PENANAHdmfDDFmNg
It was showtime indeed. I995Please respect copyright.PENANASDPFS9Komk
found Collins, Yang Hyun-suk and G-Dragon talking amongst themselves in995Please respect copyright.PENANAkfCL0wQHGq
the hallway. Behind them was the door that led to the conference room. I995Please respect copyright.PENANAUZgVNY4rjl
could hear voices of the reporters behind the door and I felt my palms 995Please respect copyright.PENANAko1LyL3Sek
starting to sweat. I wasn't such a fan of interviews and I hated them.995Please respect copyright.PENANACAcZLPWNnR
"Ah, here she comes," said Yang Hyun-suk as he noticed Lee and I approach. "You're looking very lovely today."995Please respect copyright.PENANA4rxSbdYIEc
I bowed my head at him and said slowly, "gomawoyo (고마워요) (thank you), Hyun-suk Sajangnim (사장님) (Boss)."995Please respect copyright.PENANAD4wBKSRaHD
"I'm impressed," said Yang Hyun-suk, with a smile on his face. "You're really learning."995Please respect copyright.PENANACgHqpBxPri
"Well, I try to do the best I could," I said.995Please respect copyright.PENANAEwpyNFDWSX
"Sam really knows how to adapt to the environment she's in," said Collins. "No wonder she's so smart."995Please respect copyright.PENANAtNRo0mla7u
"No doubt about that," said Yang Hyun-suk. "And she's looking really lovely today, isn't that right, GD?"995Please respect copyright.PENANAyfi5CiIKsh
My heart almost skipped a995Please respect copyright.PENANAWJCrghvnfZ
beat as I turned to look at G-Dragon who was also looking at me. For a 995Please respect copyright.PENANAvEtHXfmA6K
moment, he didn't reply and I was scared at what he was going to say.995Please respect copyright.PENANAIAXyrchkcJ
Surprisingly, he managed995Please respect copyright.PENANAATGtninUpZ
to put up a smile on his face. For a moment there, his smile seemed 995Please respect copyright.PENANAN5IWk6QOTG
genuine, but I could feel the negative energy behind it.995Please respect copyright.PENANAb3ice3QZKy
"Yes, she does look lovely today," G-Dragon replied.995Please respect copyright.PENANAHjRzd6GR0b
I didn't know whether I 995Please respect copyright.PENANA7J2Rfbg9br
should run or remain where I was. I couldn't stand this any longer. I 995Please respect copyright.PENANAXR2TNG8Q8Q
felt he was some psychopathic killer ready to jump on me when no one was995Please respect copyright.PENANAMGDvH1H8Bv
looking. And honestly, I felt pretty terrified.995Please respect copyright.PENANAXzR6S4ncDz
The door soon flew open 995Please respect copyright.PENANAL9rAt5gMyr
and someone came to inform us that everything was all set and ready to 995Please respect copyright.PENANA0SMrx38osT
go. I breathed out heavily as I tried to calm myself and we walked 995Please respect copyright.PENANAq1Ha3CwIP3
towards the door. My palms were still sweaty.995Please respect copyright.PENANA8ADrJ1mYDg
"Hey, don't worry about a thing," said Lee as she reached me to the door. "You'll be alright."995Please respect copyright.PENANAmOWFDvu5Yl
All I could do was nod my head at Lee and I stepped in to the conference room first with G-Dragon behind me.995Please respect copyright.PENANAVdhcLlOCi8
The flashing lights of 995Please respect copyright.PENANAfK9uoHciIR
the cameras flashed around me. They blinded my eyes for a moment, but I 995Please respect copyright.PENANAyzvSNgg0oR
pretended not to flinch as I continued to walk up to the small podium 995Please respect copyright.PENANAqHMvKebuzA
and there stood a table with four chairs.995Please respect copyright.PENANAWdNcpCiTuq
I got up to the podium 995Please respect copyright.PENANArzQMgEqN2l
and I was guided where to sit. There were four chairs behind the table 995Please respect copyright.PENANA2omYYyur3G
and I sat in the middle and G-Dragon sat next to me. Collins sat to my 995Please respect copyright.PENANAJQzW1odzpj
left while Yang Hyun-suk sat to G-Dragon's right.995Please respect copyright.PENANA4PW1fagk1h
The bright lights of the995Please respect copyright.PENANAm12fpkpVHt
flashing cameras continued to flash in front of my eyes and it took 995Please respect copyright.PENANAoSTanWQIYB
time to regain my vision. I soon noticed that there were a lot more 995Please respect copyright.PENANA5gkQCaJzPw
reporters and camera men in the conference room than I had anticipated. 995Please respect copyright.PENANAWZESqCWjMm
My hands were as sweaty as hell and I felt them shivering. I bet this 995Please respect copyright.PENANArjRclYwWw5
interview was going live on national TV because I noticed video cameras 995Please respect copyright.PENANAGQx0GaDP81
around the room.995Please respect copyright.PENANA3WyfluwpEO
"Good morning, 995Please respect copyright.PENANAhvNONOMyPT
everyone," said Yang Hyun-suk through the set of microphones that were 995Please respect copyright.PENANAcRv7rGEssI
in front of him on the table. "We may now proceed with the interview. 995Please respect copyright.PENANAp8RO0CBzTH
You may begin to ask your questions."995Please respect copyright.PENANAypwGagnejn
The thing I always hated995Please respect copyright.PENANA1CjkBp8ilE
about interviews, was that reporters could ask the dumbest questions, 995Please respect copyright.PENANARMCCPzknYD
the personal ones, the most hurtful ones, the most confusing ones and 995Please respect copyright.PENANAFhoomL2VRN
the inappropriate ones. I hoped and prayed that the first question 995Please respect copyright.PENANA1IVgPbYHgZ
wasn't going to be any of the five I had in mind. 995Please respect copyright.PENANAgVMszK0ne0
A lady among the 995Please respect copyright.PENANAioDI2gcKzD
reporters raised her hand and Yang Hyun-suk told her to proceed. I had 995Please respect copyright.PENANAnv0LOmAaQW
my fingers crossed. I always hated such moments.995Please respect copyright.PENANAp0iu12baMo
"I'm Mi Sun from MBC 995Please respect copyright.PENANAKlvUhdmtjC
TV," said the reporter. "On Tuesday this week, a video of YG's own 995Please respect copyright.PENANAmMfm0IjfIn
phenomenal artist, G-Dragon, and Samantha Glasson, also known as B.K, 995Please respect copyright.PENANA8LWluBSK7P
was released on YouTube and almost became a worldwide trend. My 995Please respect copyright.PENANAB30DFle2ig
question, probably on everyone's mind is, are the two of them dating?"995Please respect copyright.PENANAfE5isvt7ES
Yang Hyun-suk answered, 995Please respect copyright.PENANA2eMBQNza6k
"we can assure you that the two of them aren't dating. That video wasn't995Please respect copyright.PENANATrWpnAsU4m
supposed to be aired on YouTube."995Please respect copyright.PENANAMNzDizuC0Y
"If it wasn't supposed to be aired, then who did this and why?" the reporter asked.995Please respect copyright.PENANAaL0UTTH4D3
Ah, oh. Was this the 995Please respect copyright.PENANAzW98AEn7aw
part where either G-Dragon and I were supposed to answer the question? 995Please respect copyright.PENANAIHp4GtrNRA
If so, I wasn't ready to tell them that my very own best friend had done995Please respect copyright.PENANA7GQbYEKcbF
all this. I feared of what the outcome may be.995Please respect copyright.PENANACddzk6tcQq
"The person who took the video was none other than our very own, Zoey," Collins answered.995Please respect copyright.PENANACzV6WHxj6s
From the corner of my 995Please respect copyright.PENANATIzks4FElB
eye, I looked at Collins. I knew Collins wouldn't want to make Zoey look995Please respect copyright.PENANAfZAbFNKsNK
bad for any reason at all, but it looks like he and Yang Hyun-suk were 995Please respect copyright.PENANAdZuNQhjXTs
sticking to the truth. I might as well just do the same.995Please respect copyright.PENANACZSXPeufBQ
Another reporter, a man this time around, raised a hand and Yang Hyun-suk allowed him to speak.995Please respect copyright.PENANAjciOJuyAbR
"Thank you, my name is 995Please respect copyright.PENANA9dU6VHQHry
Jin Soo from KBS," said the male reporter. "I think a lot of people 995Please respect copyright.PENANAMNWR0kuRZ9
would want to know after hearing all of this, why would Zoey post that 995Please respect copyright.PENANAH46ZVy7Irp
video? From the look of things, what was going on between GD and BK 995Please respect copyright.PENANAu69NjSw0QV
seemed like a private affair, or was the video all for show?"995Please respect copyright.PENANAfTQuSoCRV5
This was what I feared. I995Please respect copyright.PENANAS9YIsnlykU
bet a lot of our fans were thinking G-Dragon and I were actually dating995Please respect copyright.PENANAq7Y65aC43r
and had high hopes. Now that people know the truth, it would crush the 995Please respect copyright.PENANAl66tH4ULHA
fans and Zoey would end up being the villain. But telling the truth was 995Please respect copyright.PENANAeh1Tb840oE
really the best option. It wouldn't seem right, now that GD and I were 995Please respect copyright.PENANAXyEbhRae7z
clearly not on good terms at the moment, to tell the whole world a lie.995Please respect copyright.PENANAesJq7IRlmO
"I think I'll answer that question," said G-Dragon.995Please respect copyright.PENANAaw0nPwUa0v
For a moment, my heart 995Please respect copyright.PENANAgJZOW35V1E
almost skipped a beat as G-Dragon spoke through the mic. I turned to 995Please respect copyright.PENANABj1yoP8lgD
look at him. I just hoped he wasn't going to say anything that would 995Please respect copyright.PENANAfLSNAmZ7cA
raise more questions from the reporters.995Please respect copyright.PENANAJtescOSblh
"The video you saw on YouTube wasn't for show," said G-Dragon. "All that was actually real."995Please respect copyright.PENANAC0ZimXu2hR
"And you allowed Zoey to take the video?" the male reporter asked.995Please respect copyright.PENANAlkbYIjrrh8
"No, apparently, we never realised that Zoey was taking the video until it was already too late."995Please respect copyright.PENANA2nGl5KcRv6
"But why did she do all that? Can you explain what her intentions were at the time?"995Please respect copyright.PENANAsWzJTUB6qa
I knew G-Dragon wasn't 995Please respect copyright.PENANAL1V4sbCekB
going to answer that question because no one knew Zoey better than I 995Please respect copyright.PENANAmKSqA6YiqF
did. So without realising it, I stepped in.995Please respect copyright.PENANAUgIXkyLEDK
"I know what Zoey did by995Please respect copyright.PENANAPdi2yas4xr
releasing the video has raised a lot of questions in everyone's mind," I995Please respect copyright.PENANAzCDwDMSa0b
said, confidently. "Many of our fans had high hopes that GD and I were 995Please respect copyright.PENANAeGwoOnAAm4
dating, but that's not the case. What happened was nothing but a 995Please respect copyright.PENANATu4TUNna4w
misunderstanding."995Please respect copyright.PENANAZy53QH8Zs4
Immediately I said those995Please respect copyright.PENANAb0Rb7tYaSq
words, everyone's eyes were on me now, including those around the world995Please respect copyright.PENANAtHCwem0nra
probably watching on their television screens or devices. Yang 995Please respect copyright.PENANATBUnBYTCC4
Hyun-suk, Collins and G-Dragon also stared at me. The camera lights kept995Please respect copyright.PENANA7mpzVqYQGJ
on flashing in my face like crazy. I wish I could tell the camera men 995Please respect copyright.PENANA0ngiV9kTes
to stop because the flashing lights were so annoying. 995Please respect copyright.PENANAgPpDWrkAao
I continued before any 995Please respect copyright.PENANA7QfkCXZkuQ
reporter could ask what I meant. "The truth is, what was going on 995Please respect copyright.PENANAxgO3wEBr1B
between GD and I was real. He gave me chocolates and roses because he 995Please respect copyright.PENANAj6vkVLltYW
was trying to make up for not being there for me the previous day and to995Please respect copyright.PENANAaNDHoEy9rp
congratulate me on making it on the Elle Korean Magazine Cover. So, him995Please respect copyright.PENANAkeLjNqivbf
giving me those gifts were more like saying 'congratulations' and 'I'm 995Please respect copyright.PENANAXRL305XtfM
sorry for not being there' kind of thing."995Please respect copyright.PENANA9y8nkhNCOh
For a moment, no one 995Please respect copyright.PENANAqwr4lxKYmZ
said a word, not even the reporters. I turned to Collins, who gave me a 995Please respect copyright.PENANAtVk7Lh89ht
nod to go on. I continued to stare at the audience of reporters and 995Please respect copyright.PENANATgXiNGkHJK
camera men. I could feel G-Dragon's eyes on me though. But that 995Please respect copyright.PENANA1OFjBAlbyZ
shouldn't intimidate me. I cleared my throat and went on.995Please respect copyright.PENANAKBTDFVxUZh
"And knowing Zoey, she's995Please respect copyright.PENANAHRQhMULepF
one who likes to capture such beautiful moments. So, she decided to 995Please respect copyright.PENANAZgRvOE7Yav
take a video of what was happening. And before we could realise what was995Please respect copyright.PENANAiOgJHnM3O2
going on, it was already too late. She first posted it on her fan base,995Please respect copyright.PENANAouF0lZl2Rx
which she usually does. But before she could take it down, her loyal 995Please respect copyright.PENANAtzpAcDIw0k
fans had already seen it and probably one of them posted it on YouTube. 995Please respect copyright.PENANAtk3rDKcb6x
And that's how everything came to be up to this point."995Please respect copyright.PENANAbqM5TW0FTR
All the reporters who 995Please respect copyright.PENANA3oPlFluNHo
were taking down what I was saying, started muttering among themselves 995Please respect copyright.PENANA6nQUbdCrVs
as though we were in a debate room. I didn't know what they would 995Please respect copyright.PENANAVkZkoZvRen
obviously be talking about and I hoped that they weren't going to ask a 995Please respect copyright.PENANAGZAglIdzz8
question that might just intimidate me.995Please respect copyright.PENANA9mT0Jxp5ST
The same female reporter from MBC raised her hand and she was told to proceed. I feared for my life.995Please respect copyright.PENANA7pNy7i9kzW
"So what you're trying to say, B.K, is that all this is Zoey's fault?" the reporter asked.995Please respect copyright.PENANAAbFtIqwrEg
"Well, I could blame 995Please respect copyright.PENANA9TP5pQGvST
Zoey because she was the one who took the video in the first place and 995Please respect copyright.PENANAZH6UTU2GLN
without our permission. But it's not entirely her fault," I replied. 995Please respect copyright.PENANA8XCXMBbdXq
"I've grown to know her very well because she's my best friend. I know 995Please respect copyright.PENANA3W1aoGrrfn
she didn't mean any harm by raising people's hopes that we were dating. 995Please respect copyright.PENANAHG95dDO8pj
Knowing her, she thought she could try to capture the great friendship 995Please respect copyright.PENANAgSksFKR9p2
that G-Dragon and I have."995Please respect copyright.PENANAxzBYyHDr14
What was I saying? I 995Please respect copyright.PENANAH5jTIgTHKh
know I am being honest and genuine, but saying it with G-Dragon by my 995Please respect copyright.PENANA6xdhk0uqnH
side felt awkward. If people got to know that G-Dragon and I had quiet a995Please respect copyright.PENANAX0192MqBZY
misunderstanding the other day, it would surly raise questions and the 995Please respect copyright.PENANAkHuWdiWtpH
whole world would criticise me.995Please respect copyright.PENANAwSSDHzZusF
I stared at G-Dragon 995Please respect copyright.PENANAflpOQYdwpe
beside me and he was still staring at me. I could see it in his eyes 995Please respect copyright.PENANAfLS46EAEuf
that me saying all that felt wrong, but all that happened way before the995Please respect copyright.PENANAhNggmIhFTf
argument. I was hurting as I said all that and I wish I could turn back995Please respect copyright.PENANAKfUokcEhVI
the hands of time and set things right.995Please respect copyright.PENANADg0aET5Dv2
"And also, she's always 995Please respect copyright.PENANAM2hOlXAhtu
admired G-Dragon," I continued, as I turned to the audience. "So, I bet 995Please respect copyright.PENANAGsfuwbeERK
she was trying to capture G-Dragon's great personality. We all know how 995Please respect copyright.PENANAQh77BDWUlx
much of a good guy he is, so, that's why Zoey did all that."995Please respect copyright.PENANAzCBtS9C1gT
I think I had said 995Please respect copyright.PENANAN3ZheaBquH
enough and I kept quiet. This was awkward and I could feel that G-Dragon995Please respect copyright.PENANAT7J29vF9Sr
was feeling the same way. All I wanted was for this interview to be 995Please respect copyright.PENANA8yp35TM8bp
over and get out of the conference room.995Please respect copyright.PENANAlHaBTi2Rs6
"So, you two are clearly not dating?" the reporter asked.995Please respect copyright.PENANAleWIKbTEgc
"No," G-Dragon and I replied at the same time.995Please respect copyright.PENANA1bnEb7tbsK
Okay. That felt weird. 995Please respect copyright.PENANAFU5rO3ohnL
My eyes flew at G-Dragon and he also turned to look at me. That made 995Please respect copyright.PENANAUwWDeDBAWz
things even more weirder. I bet those watching on national TV would 995Please respect copyright.PENANAjs7mBXId4P
either find all of this a show or something beyond the ordinary.995Please respect copyright.PENANArpK2vEYdZf
"And you guys wouldn't 995Please respect copyright.PENANAGjG8SjonHt
like to date in future?" the reporter continued. "Because a lot has been995Please respect copyright.PENANACeQ2V0kGOw
said since the video came out that you two would make a great couple."995Please respect copyright.PENANAGRwfaROpr7
"No, we wouldn't."995Please respect copyright.PENANAfX2oMqASaY
Dang it! We replied at 995Please respect copyright.PENANA2Yt5GxSi5B
the same time, again! This wasn't going so well and we both knew it as 995Please respect copyright.PENANAweiFrFpmfh
we stared at each other. These were the times you would tell the 995Please respect copyright.PENANAVfvVK25j9Z
reporters to mind their own business and walk away like you didn't care.995Please respect copyright.PENANAxUkYz61kaK
This was turning out to be just terrible.995Please respect copyright.PENANAxTlTfhv0r6
"There would be no need 995Please respect copyright.PENANAJOIYqQlvJA
to ask such questions," said Collins. "The Toxins are here in South 995Please respect copyright.PENANAihHS2wCZYA
Korea strictly for business. There would be no point for Sam and Ji Yong995Please respect copyright.PENANA2x9G8xo5ov
to start dating when The Toxins would obviously stay here for less than995Please respect copyright.PENANAneZVjsQtYA
a month or two."995Please respect copyright.PENANA6eIq5hLGt0
Phew! Thank you, 995Please respect copyright.PENANAY4FWiaNW3g
Collins! No wonder I considered him as my top guardian angel. I was so 995Please respect copyright.PENANAG3dOIQYTfv
glad that he finally decided to step in or else I would obviously have 995Please respect copyright.PENANA4vtfNOw3LS
told the reporter to piss off.995Please respect copyright.PENANA3H3xRRjyOB
"So, how is the song 995Please respect copyright.PENANAFnxl2U9wGN
coming along?" the reporter asked. "Because I heard The Toxins and 995Please respect copyright.PENANAofZRIY8dBe
BigBang had quiet a fun ride at Caribbean Bay the day before."995Please respect copyright.PENANA3fekwZWPUm
Oh no. That question was clearly not necessary. Aargh! This was what I considered the inappropriate question.995Please respect copyright.PENANAEYxsja6zOt
"I don't see why you get995Please respect copyright.PENANArXs3mHGKcU
to ask that," said Collins. "They went out to have fun and find a 995Please respect copyright.PENANAmrLQn5NRtl
source of inspiration for their song. And why not at Caribbean Bay? I 995Please respect copyright.PENANArPQmBehcjJ
know Sam and Ji Yong were supposed to be here for the interview that 995Please respect copyright.PENANAZjPLw6EbKy
day, but apparently, you all came at the last minute when they had 995Please respect copyright.PENANAgEoDYd161Q
already made plans to go out."995Please respect copyright.PENANAl7GJJkydvf
I didn't know whether to995Please respect copyright.PENANAzc5nYFmij9
be impressed that Collins is such a good liar, or I should hug him at 995Please respect copyright.PENANAdkqDzewtnY
the end of the interview for saving our necks. That was such a close 995Please respect copyright.PENANAg4bKY8bNGB
call.995Please respect copyright.PENANARC8KuBp2Tc
"I think time is already up," said Yang Hyun-suk. "So, if you would kindly excuse us, we have other schedules to attend to."995Please respect copyright.PENANA30Qmh9Zd8K
No reporter asked any 995Please respect copyright.PENANA2oGBDdn9Qb
further questions, that meant all of this was over. Finally! I just 995Please respect copyright.PENANAbpbo9By3YS
wanted to get out of here and breathe. I needed the air because things 995Please respect copyright.PENANAOhKEqYcTNl
were starting to get a little intense in here.995Please respect copyright.PENANAKqfgltlsKz
When we all got up from 995Please respect copyright.PENANAtgI6yYSO5A
our chairs to leave, I was backing away from my chair and the back of my995Please respect copyright.PENANAIC44ZPDMOq
shoe got caught with one of the cable cords on the floor. Before I 995Please respect copyright.PENANAEpNw09W1Mx
realised it, I tripped and was falling backwards. 995Please respect copyright.PENANAFMVNy2icty
I almost screamed but before I could even reach the floor, G-Dragon caught me just in time. 995Please respect copyright.PENANASr7IQvuzcD
The camera lights in 995Please respect copyright.PENANAb8QLlsnkmO
front of us flashed like crazy because of the scene. And I couldn't help995Please respect copyright.PENANAnQMvmgrohC
but feel that all this just made things a whole lot worse.995Please respect copyright.PENANAPxvKiUnTRF
G-Dragon and I were so 995Please respect copyright.PENANAk2lsXbyfd5
close and I couldn't help but blush when I looked up at him and he was 995Please respect copyright.PENANAXOdvNRcUKg
staring down at me. I knew that he was still angry at me, but I wanted 995Please respect copyright.PENANA0Jv1am4RKy
to forget about that and I hoped he would too. We could both carry on 995Please respect copyright.PENANAXtwbYPUnQL
with our lives as if all that never happened.995Please respect copyright.PENANAjwqVAKEBXL
He quickly helped me to 995Please respect copyright.PENANA1bxXj9eVWy
straighten up as the camera lights continued to flash before us. I 995Please respect copyright.PENANAy7rfaYzQz4
stared at G-Dragon and I realised that I was still blushing. I took a 995Please respect copyright.PENANA4NjfMny0dA
strand of my hair behind my ear and cleared my throat.995Please respect copyright.PENANAU8o59pUg6w
"Um, thanks, GD," I said to him.995Please respect copyright.PENANAHXAzFjSTq0
"You should be a little more careful next time," he replied.995Please respect copyright.PENANATxl3kRhIiu
I couldn't tell if he 995Please respect copyright.PENANAZJVTbGyGzu
said that because they were reporters around, or he really did care 995Please respect copyright.PENANAzEVoM95Qyc
despite being mad at me. That, I'll never know.995Please respect copyright.PENANAlLESQKQ8bP
The four of us walked 995Please respect copyright.PENANAf1GcDS2hyB
out of the conference room and I couldn't help but realise that I had 995Please respect copyright.PENANAI5MX8nBKKX
another challenge ahead now. And that was the song.995Please respect copyright.PENANA4vj8FvfiWi
***995Please respect copyright.PENANAn8oRMpCDNX
"Sam, you were just awesome! Come here, you!" Zoey exclaimed as she ran towards me and pulled me into a tight hug.995Please respect copyright.PENANAY9Sd680gZ8
G-Dragon and I had just walked out of the conference room and Zoey appeared out of no where.995Please respect copyright.PENANAfUAFlE2WN6
"I thought you weren't supposed to be here," I said to Zoey, still embraced in her arms.995Please respect copyright.PENANAewAJK7hrCA
"Well, ya," said Zoey as995Please respect copyright.PENANANLRcoJPv9u
she pulled away from me. "I was watching the interview with the others 995Please respect copyright.PENANAN8PeTZRJKy
upstairs and when I saw how you defended me in front of those reporters,995Please respect copyright.PENANAxd53fJZuws
I decided to come down here."995Please respect copyright.PENANA3fA5PfGIGR
"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."995Please respect copyright.PENANAn2qUk9ALi7
"Zoey, what are you doing here?" came Collins' voice behind me. Yikes! Zoey was in for it now.995Please respect copyright.PENANA8UmQYshTpf
"I came for my best friend," said Zoey. "Is that bad?"995Please respect copyright.PENANAZKHdZ6MibH
"At the moment, yes," 995Please respect copyright.PENANAredFXu2p2y
said Collins. "Not when everyone now knows that it's all your fault that995Please respect copyright.PENANA0vp7ggXpXV
you released the video and made everyone have high hopes about Sam and 995Please respect copyright.PENANAXvgYpelo7d
G-Dragon's relationship. It was best to keep you out of plain site of 995Please respect copyright.PENANAGlRaCpOXjM
the reporters to keep them from asking any more questions."995Please respect copyright.PENANAfIScF8669J
"Come on, Collins," said995Please respect copyright.PENANAtjsFQI3V0q
Zoey, shaking her head at her manager. "Don't you know up to now that 995Please respect copyright.PENANAwCpblCnAhe
whatever Sam says to the media everyone will listen and believe her? No 995Please respect copyright.PENANAe9K5MEgDsC
one is going to be mad at me for long if not at all. You'll see."995Please respect copyright.PENANALReSFVifPc
"I don't get it," I 995Please respect copyright.PENANAaK5A8cgJ8j
said, with a confused look on my face. "Why do you say no one is going 995Please respect copyright.PENANAN89cyAkGMI
to be mad at you because of what I said?"995Please respect copyright.PENANATv00hYgnsV
"You told the media that995Please respect copyright.PENANAFUUoNRasZC
even though I made the video, it was partly not all my fault. If you 995Please respect copyright.PENANAQxMYxe6SPA
want, Collins, you and I can bet on it. Everyone listens to Sam. She's 995Please respect copyright.PENANAAgNU8pqvIF
like some high-rank public figure. If she were to run for president, she995Please respect copyright.PENANAGXXzms323C
would be instated the very same day."995Please respect copyright.PENANAjzI7sZmQbW
Yang Hyun-suk, Lee, 995Please respect copyright.PENANA6lEnrkZZCo
G-Dragon and I laughed at Zoey's joke, except Collins. I knew he was 995Please respect copyright.PENANA2OVPImgOnM
pissed with what Zoey had said, but I had to admit, that was something 995Please respect copyright.PENANAaLPsjxg1zi
even an angry person would laugh about.995Please respect copyright.PENANAy9L3ut5d1y
Speaking about angry 995Please respect copyright.PENANA6Q0OCaEcNb
people, I turned over to G-Dragon who was still laughing. It felt good 995Please respect copyright.PENANAn5tx8fyt98
to see him laugh and I smiled. But very soon, he will be back to the way995Please respect copyright.PENANAhBWy8O6n8Q
he was. Just the thought of that made me swell up with sadness that I 995Please respect copyright.PENANAfjxr0cqCcx
even had to face the other way so that no one would notice it all over 995Please respect copyright.PENANAJtBMQNs1ZN
my face.995Please respect copyright.PENANAqBb9w5AJ2r
"Zoey is one person you 995Please respect copyright.PENANAhcWvepJkPs
should never throw away in your life, Collins," said Yang Hyun-suk, 995Please respect copyright.PENANAsA0EETr5DW
holding Collins' shoulder with a bit of laughter on his face. "She's 995Please respect copyright.PENANAaBVPIOQEud
just hilarious."995Please respect copyright.PENANAAUULb5ysPq
"Ya, she's one of a kind," said G-Dragon.995Please respect copyright.PENANA23IRQDJjdn
"Ah, and how could I 995Please respect copyright.PENANAzDSQRM65Ly
forget about my lovely G-Dragon," said Zoey, as she came to stand beside995Please respect copyright.PENANAV9CWkfhdu1
G-Dragon and hooked her hand around his elbow. "You looked awesome 995Please respect copyright.PENANAr5pj0eae3Q
today. And handsome too."995Please respect copyright.PENANAlaHl1Tf4Bb
"Wow, looks like Sam was right," said Yang Hyun-suk. "You do admire G-Dragon."995Please respect copyright.PENANAlBYPehGIw5
"Ya, no one knows me better than Sam," said Zoey with a grin. "If it were possible, I would gladly have dated G-Dragon."995Please respect copyright.PENANAEWBeWwZu64
"Don't even think about it," said Collins, pointing a finger at Zoey.995Please respect copyright.PENANAl6AILSqC7q
"I know. 'We're here 995Please respect copyright.PENANAS6ikd7K8j8
just to collaborate with BigBang, yadda, yadda, that means no dating 995Please respect copyright.PENANAuSTXWNrI73
anyone of them.' I still remember that rule," said Zoey rolling her 995Please respect copyright.PENANAuvIrwKz2Mp
eyes.995Please respect copyright.PENANAr3TC6D2Pkk
"Sometimes I wish I could kill you," said Collins, shaking his head.995Please respect copyright.PENANAauz6mPaJat
"But you can't, because you love me just as I love you, Collins," said Zoey, with a huge grin on her face.995Please respect copyright.PENANASTq77ycATR
"Hilarious," said Yang 995Please respect copyright.PENANApCRDjTx6qQ
Hyun-suk. "We better get going. You three have to get that song ready, 995Please respect copyright.PENANACsnVP52Zli
while we, have other things to attend to."995Please respect copyright.PENANAcdh6F5VW3X
Oh, the song. For a 995Please respect copyright.PENANAD9ad4878ip
moment, I never wanted Yang Hyun-suk or anyone else to mention it. I 995Please respect copyright.PENANAwLzfXnniUl
felt my heart beat faster and I felt like judgement day had finally 995Please respect copyright.PENANAVvi0TqVGh4
come.995Please respect copyright.PENANAkX0uiNDgdb
We all found ourselves 995Please respect copyright.PENANA4WCEfI9tvQ
in the elevator and I was quiet the whole way. The two managers were 995Please respect copyright.PENANA51e3yMC4fS
busy talking about something important, while Lee, G-Dragon and Zoey 995Please respect copyright.PENANARkHWPktHk0
were talking about the interview.995Please respect copyright.PENANAowXKlQ2Lwo
When the elevator 995Please respect copyright.PENANAHZvxyo6qVb
stopped, Zoey, G-Dragon and I got out and we dropped off on the floor to995Please respect copyright.PENANApbKbwspXQo
the recording studios. Our managers and Lee continued on their way 995Please respect copyright.PENANA5WymTQ80ik
upwards in the elevator probably heading for Yang Hyun-suk's office.995Please respect copyright.PENANAyPX2zpD2fq
While the three of us 995Please respect copyright.PENANAzKxR0L73W2
walked along the hallway, heading for one of the rooms, I couldn't help 995Please respect copyright.PENANAKH8IhjinjK
but fall behind G-Dragon and Zoey as the two walked ahead of me 995Please respect copyright.PENANAuli8odAhin
alongside each other. The two were so deep in their own little 995Please respect copyright.PENANA2AOI1Wsv02
conversation, I didn't feel like listening or joining them. At that 995Please respect copyright.PENANAD374xRNyF3
point, I felt like I didn't matter.995Please respect copyright.PENANAL514H83HKt
We found ourselves in one of the recording studio rooms and we found all our group members waiting for us.995Please respect copyright.PENANAckkkxqlIee
"You're back!" Christine995Please respect copyright.PENANAS3hMLyR983
ran towards us, coming straight for me and pulling me into a hug. "You 995Please respect copyright.PENANAHNXJutIBBq
were so brave standing up for Zoey like that."995Please respect copyright.PENANAw5gamgF9zQ
"You know I don't like interviews," I said, trying to put up a smile. "I was actually scared."995Please respect copyright.PENANAl4mobWvYby
"You didn't seem that way," said Taeyang. "You looked very calm as though you knew what you were doing."995Please respect copyright.PENANAoKj4VU9OCZ
"And you also looked very pretty," said TOP, giving me a wink.995Please respect copyright.PENANAmDOek4kRFw
"Um, th-thanks," I said while my cheeks blushed after Christine had pulled away from me.995Please respect copyright.PENANA8EOLcAmsWd
"Ya, you're looking 995Please respect copyright.PENANAyXsjtdKAtc
prettier even now," said Seungri, staring at me with dreamy eyes. "I 995Please respect copyright.PENANAP0nv5zsJ19
would've come down there in the conference room and kissed you in front 995Please respect copyright.PENANA5pOOU93qch
of the whole world."995Please respect copyright.PENANA2MuJGwVXvQ
Daesung who stood beside995Please respect copyright.PENANAlwvH1Rh9r6
him slapped him on the shoulder. Seungri whined in pain while he held 995Please respect copyright.PENANAwTdE2g4F5S
his shoulder and stared at Daesung.995Please respect copyright.PENANAR4I0LwnIBw
"What?" Seungri asked. 995Please respect copyright.PENANAiv5RHfm8je
"You only want to cause trouble, do you? You should learn to respect Sam, you know," said Daesung.995Please respect copyright.PENANArpXnrEbdrs
I couldn't help but get the feeling that Daesung was a little jealous. I couldn't help but smile to myself.995Please respect copyright.PENANAXWX4NHEKTq
"Hello! Isn't anyone going to talk about the little scene that happened at the end of the interview?" Daniel asked.995Please respect copyright.PENANAfjQtXK2TN1
"Oh, the part where 995Please respect copyright.PENANAvYWkI7ore7
G-Dragon saves Sam from falling?" Zoey asked. "If you're worried that 995Please respect copyright.PENANAVWKgq0cefj
people would find that romantic, I highly doubt it."995Please respect copyright.PENANAgEZk2aJocC
Highly doubt it? If 995Please respect copyright.PENANAwvc5Gs8awi
Daniel was thinking the same way I had earlier, people would start to 995Please respect copyright.PENANA7iaIhuUuH6
make up a love story that barely even existed.995Please respect copyright.PENANATqaYDvz8ol
"Well, fans do like to 995Please respect copyright.PENANAlN2uTU7TdA
make out a love story out of small things," said Taeyang, scratching his995Please respect copyright.PENANAfpPduPKFm8
head. "I wouldn't be surprised if that happens."995Please respect copyright.PENANAGSiFAP045e
Oh, no. Looked like 995Please respect copyright.PENANAL4fRu75ZCx
Taeyang was also on this one too. I wished for someone to change the 995Please respect copyright.PENANA1AOSGPXuuk
subject. This was starting to feel awkward, especially with G-Dragon 995Please respect copyright.PENANAF9zrrUdsnM
standing right in front of me.995Please respect copyright.PENANAo3yOOKaaaq
I stared at G-Dragon and995Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8Rxj9MDr7
I could tell by the look on his face that he didn't want to hear a 995Please respect copyright.PENANAvv0mlQMRJk
single word concerning love stories. We had other serious things to 995Please respect copyright.PENANAJ4mFnJSQaA
think about.995Please respect copyright.PENANAhaJqT1dPpd
"Can we drop that for 995Please respect copyright.PENANAyMdzuhLmuE
now and focus on the song instead?" G-Dragon suggested. "We don't have 995Please respect copyright.PENANARK0u5fJd1W
much time and we need to work on it right away."995Please respect copyright.PENANAoSXPNJyPG4
"GD's right," I said. 995Please respect copyright.PENANAYYzHpXuQgh
"We all saw the reporter ask on how much progress we've made and Collins995Please respect copyright.PENANAsVcj0aXmDK
made an effort to cover for us. So, for the sake of our managers, let's995Please respect copyright.PENANA5X9tnct3tp
get to work."995Please respect copyright.PENANAGbID8pZpR7
"But we have to vote again, remember?" TOP reminded us. 995Please respect copyright.PENANAjHbv34dNVT
Everyone fell silent and995Please respect copyright.PENANAx66TZk1hIh
the room felt awkward. It was like the ghost of yesterday still haunted995Please respect copyright.PENANAh5k0vSeTgy
us even now. Again, I still felt like it was all my fault.995Please respect copyright.PENANAfBe1aoOne7
"Well, we all agreed yesterday to vote again," said G-Dragon. "So let's get settled and get this over with."995Please respect copyright.PENANALuehyCjWKz
When everyone went to 995Please respect copyright.PENANAbUsq7qaVYq
settle down on the black leather seats, I stood on the same spot, deep 995Please respect copyright.PENANAc4UKe1OySA
in thought. Was all of this worth it? The last thing I wanted was for 995Please respect copyright.PENANA8sVFpx0KRf
all of us to be divided because of my stupid suggestion. Maybe I was 995Please respect copyright.PENANAUgUutbSn5v
wrong this whole time and I shouldn't have done all of this in the first995Please respect copyright.PENANAeO72OiMGVY
place.995Please respect copyright.PENANARD0xeRRihP
"Hey, Sam are you alright?" TOP asked. "You seem troubled."995Please respect copyright.PENANAlVSzlaI6TY
I came back to reality and I saw everyone staring at me with worried looks on their faces, except G-Dragon.995Please respect copyright.PENANAlyZYhZh1Qb
"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?"995Please respect copyright.PENANAucgTxw35KH
I still didn't say a 995Please respect copyright.PENANAEboqa7Bm89
word as I played around with my fingers. I took in a deep breath and 995Please respect copyright.PENANACgY384UkId
breathed out with my eyes closed, clenching my hands into fists. When I 995Please respect copyright.PENANA6TS1W45qVy
opened my eyes, I looked on at the others and said:995Please respect copyright.PENANAFDEN5Qq3in
"This voting thing is 995Please respect copyright.PENANANdf9vKPo9I
pointless. I take back what I said yesterday. It's for the best if 995Please respect copyright.PENANAZD9efwHjsP
G-Dragon and I work on the lyrics for the song instead."995Please respect copyright.PENANAf2ccnElO00
Again, the room fell 995Please respect copyright.PENANAC55Dgbmgxh
into an awkward silence. Everyone's eyes were on me and they looked 995Please respect copyright.PENANAAPdOOeeKXN
surprised, except for G-Dragon. I couldn't tell whether he was smirking 995Please respect copyright.PENANApILjI5IJA8
or he decided to play stoic for a change.995Please respect copyright.PENANA4DNZ2UXW0e
"Wait, what?" Daniel asked. "Why?"995Please respect copyright.PENANAXE8Km56c7Y
"Because, Daniel, 995Please respect copyright.PENANAo9Ul9BVopu
nothing is going to change," I said, looking at my brother. "The same 995Please respect copyright.PENANAYGJeHQy5wp
thing will happen even today when we vote. It will end up in a tie 995Please respect copyright.PENANAv2ybnGHMNZ
again. So, what's the point? I bet a lot of you have thought of it the 995Please respect copyright.PENANAhnZdaAScNe
same way, haven't you?"995Please respect copyright.PENANATGJIspU0Oo
No one said a word as they all looked at each other, apart from G-Dragon, who still had his eyes on me.995Please respect copyright.PENANAn8hAhOkBaS
"I think it's best this 995Please respect copyright.PENANAYvxmS8vjCZ
way," I said, grabbing everyone's attention again. "We're going nowhere 995Please respect copyright.PENANABT7fxERubH
like this and I should have realised it sooner."995Please respect copyright.PENANABSfdcXXZnV
"Well, it's about time you came to your senses," said G-Dragon.995Please respect copyright.PENANAsrJ3zhjpM5
I felt like I had been given a slap on the face. And OUCH! It hurt like hell. 995Please respect copyright.PENANA2bNpLltro4
"That's a little harsh, don't you think?" I asked.995Please respect copyright.PENANAf6NKj98b1b
"Well, it's true, isn't it?" G-Dragon asked, with his eyebrows raised.995Please respect copyright.PENANAjJY6uNMhxl
"Well, at least I'm bold enough to even admit that I was wrong."995Please respect copyright.PENANAV8ubaT9Mb4
"And you want me to give you credit for that, Samantha?"995Please respect copyright.PENANA1bvAKKbMxb
Samantha? Really? He 995Please respect copyright.PENANA3ffPSVUar9
called me by my full name. Okay, it was clear he was still mad, but he 995Please respect copyright.PENANA27skYs051n
shouldn't be expressing his anger in front of everyone else like that. 995Please respect copyright.PENANA0ShjoBaWxa
He should be doing it to me and me alone. I was ready for what's to 995Please respect copyright.PENANA9wk1CSoZT7
come, but not with our group members around.995Please respect copyright.PENANA0STU2dV4Fu
"I don't think we should argue here," I said. "Why don't we go some place else and talk?"995Please respect copyright.PENANABpSolZrzau
"And why should we?"995Please respect copyright.PENANA00r06RuLuX
"It's not right and you know it. If you want to get personal with me, at least do it with no one around."995Please respect copyright.PENANAjiGeUGg1rc
"Oh, and now you're trying to play the good girl trying not to hurt anyone else?"995Please respect copyright.PENANARRJVAvejEc
"That's what I'm meant to do, GD. This isn't right."995Please respect copyright.PENANAeJlQEWC16E
"Sorry, Sam, but I'm 995Please respect copyright.PENANAfaGDyvtonp
rather comfortable here," G-Dragon leaned back on the chair with his 995Please respect copyright.PENANA2WMhPoXzjU
hands behind his head and crossing his leg above the other.995Please respect copyright.PENANAlT907vTwGO
I shook my head in 995Please respect copyright.PENANAmhdZe2rpRS
disbelief. G-Dragon was totally unbelievable. Right now, I wasn't sure 995Please respect copyright.PENANASSeU0rFhga
whether to hate him or just feel sorry for him.995Please respect copyright.PENANAVXFtvly6oG
"Fine, then we'll stay here then," I said.995Please respect copyright.PENANAPjpawacJku
"That's more like it," said G-Dragon, with a smirk on his face. 995Please respect copyright.PENANAOhZ3OGv0nH
"You're so stubborn," I rolled my eyes at him.995Please respect copyright.PENANAn7i9LJLEeI
"Ya, well, I was born this way."995Please respect copyright.PENANABaVa3FYMKa
"Can we please start working on the song now?" I asked. "It seems like we don't have much time left."995Please respect copyright.PENANA7SbQBurtus
"Okay, let's start."995Please respect copyright.PENANAHUmFcpLF54
"Umm, sorry to interfere995Please respect copyright.PENANAPERpl6PekE
in all of this, but are you serious right now?" Zoey asked, looking 995Please respect copyright.PENANAkCChAuW1i5
surprised and confused at the same time.995Please respect copyright.PENANAJJtiAZa9CW
"What's wrong?" G-Dragon asked, shrugging his shoulders.995Please respect copyright.PENANAJPQqsH53hv
"I don't know if you are995Please respect copyright.PENANAusAX9C2YUE
seeing this, but you two look like you're about to tear each other's 995Please respect copyright.PENANAvh0gdIWl13
throats out. Doesn't that bother you? And you want to work on the song 995Please respect copyright.PENANAq6jOcXrPQs
together? Today?"995Please respect copyright.PENANAaeYCgYVkwu
Zoey was right. What was happening now looked more like the beginning of World War III, if not the end of the world.995Please respect copyright.PENANA5wccwMfwG6
"I'm sorry, Zoey," I said. "But do we have a choice?"995Please respect copyright.PENANAuTeN8pZ4Rr
"Well, I have one. Why 995Please respect copyright.PENANAQrD2NHLLf4
don't you two take a break from each other? You're scaring me and 995Please respect copyright.PENANAXvBNwrAF67
probably the whole lot of us too. Why don't you two cool down and work 995Please respect copyright.PENANAEqtYKpcZuo
on the song tomorrow?"995Please respect copyright.PENANAmSgt3BhXBq
"Zoey's right," said Taeyang. "You two need to chill out. You both seem angry at each other."995Please respect copyright.PENANAHScMVpZlV9
"I'm not the angry one, he is," I said, pointing my finger at G-Dragon. "I'm just being reasonable!"995Please respect copyright.PENANAfoGusBfmup
"I know, Sam. You've 995Please respect copyright.PENANACjZF24BYke
both agreed to work on the song together, but you can't go on like this.995Please respect copyright.PENANA3AKGdFLX6q
Who knows what may happen if we leave you two alone."995Please respect copyright.PENANAWfMuP5VgHV
"Tae is right," said Mike. "I don't want to go back home with your beheaded dead body. Mum will kill us."995Please respect copyright.PENANAW72DhJBISC
"Okay, fine," I said, rubbing my temples and taking a deep breath. "You're right. Even I can't work like this."995Please respect copyright.PENANAOiICT3U7Un
I tried to calm myself 995Please respect copyright.PENANALQKb5iAumQ
down, trying to clear my head. I let my anger get the better of me. In 995Please respect copyright.PENANAM8axRaTP9l
fact, I couldn't tell if all this was anger or I was just annoyed 995Please respect copyright.PENANAJqZ3cCK1I5
because G-Dragon was acting bigheaded.995Please respect copyright.PENANA87j5SCWSDk
"Looks like we will work995Please respect copyright.PENANAAvo9N92p08
on it tomorrow then," said G-Dragon as he slowly got up from his seat. 995Please respect copyright.PENANAiOcOVU1Imt
And with his hands in the pockets of his jeans, he slowly walked towards995Please respect copyright.PENANAqcaBP2Aw7a
me.995Please respect copyright.PENANAh6Z5H5Gjgm
The last thing I wanted 995Please respect copyright.PENANAcv0XQq3G7l
was a face to face confrontation with him because if he was going to do 995Please respect copyright.PENANAihYXIIDeZx
or say something funny, I didn't know what I was going to do. But no. I 995Please respect copyright.PENANAy9YWaB5sXL
wasn't going to let my anger get the better of me again. I didn't want 995Please respect copyright.PENANAKf421rTZfj
to be angry at him. If there was anyone to be angry at, it was myself.995Please respect copyright.PENANAYgNTzzKUTm
G-Dragon came close and 995Please respect copyright.PENANANb2yH0d4VK
he stared at me with his intimidating eyes. At first, those eyes used to995Please respect copyright.PENANA0sc6AkXbLp
make me melt like jelly, but now, I couldn't tell where that feeling 995Please respect copyright.PENANA2xC3vJD8yV
went. Maybe it's because those eyes weren't there to intimidate but they995Please respect copyright.PENANAF7XvbhT5J1
were full of anger too.995Please respect copyright.PENANAP4LXdtHZgz
He stopped a few inches 995Please respect copyright.PENANAtRViDwG6z5
away from me and I didn't back away. Earlier on, I would. But this time,995Please respect copyright.PENANAGysjPcDlLS
I wasn't afraid anymore. I was tired of being scared.995Please respect copyright.PENANAHefROQQ6Om
"We'll meet tomorrow soon after practise, capish?" G-Dragon asked.995Please respect copyright.PENANACPs48d6ndf
"Capish," I replied, without any hint of emotion.995Please respect copyright.PENANATHxwSOxM56
"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?"995Please respect copyright.PENANAAgh39EK4kD
"No, we don't."995Please respect copyright.PENANAxIn83ZiTos
"That's my little 995Please respect copyright.PENANArMGKnAT7yO
kitty." G-Dragon smiled at me and walked away, our shoulders brushing 995Please respect copyright.PENANAPlaYdoOx4w
each other, and he went out through the door.995Please respect copyright.PENANAMsNFmthVA4
"Well, that was close," said TOP. "For a second, I thought this whole place was about to blow up."995Please respect copyright.PENANAg54oViTub0
"Ya, I thought I was going to watch a Mortal Kombart fight," said Mike.995Please respect copyright.PENANAUWfEs5qHd2
"Seriously? You're 995Please respect copyright.PENANAIt3cMuUKmF
bringing Mortal Kombart into this?" I asked Mike with my eyebrow raised.995Please respect copyright.PENANAvZbM3eeAJd
Somehow, I wanted to laugh at the joke, but I couldn't.995Please respect copyright.PENANAVEdvmky39n
"Come to think of it," 995Please respect copyright.PENANADdY0kecTyN
said Zoey, staring at Mike. "You're right. Remind me of those two 995Please respect copyright.PENANAx6cXHyjGtm
characters that hate each other so much."995Please respect copyright.PENANAvSdoEBjCte
"Scorpion and Subzero," said Daniel.995Please respect copyright.PENANAwAc0zRCaqX
"So, in this case, Scorpion is G-Dragon," said Seungri, who seemed to be enjoying himself with this.995Please respect copyright.PENANAvnMLkm7Kos
"Ya, it suits him since Scorpion and dragon kind of go together because of fire," said Daesung.995Please respect copyright.PENANA7uTUxQqaaD
"Guys, are you seriously listening to yourselves right now?" I asked.995Please respect copyright.PENANAeSTADoBmHU
But no one answered me as they continued their Mortal Kombart fantasy.995Please respect copyright.PENANAswHTbt3OXh
"And Sam is Subzero," said Daniel.995Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7YkbgyuJg
"Ya, because she is all cool and chilled like ice and doesn't crack under pressure," said TOP.995Please respect copyright.PENANALPI9btvq8R
"True, but also because Subzero is her favourite Mortal Kombart character," said Christine.995Please respect copyright.PENANAgcH558hvIG
"Oh, ya, I forgot about that," said Mike.995Please respect copyright.PENANAuCmBgagklE
This was getting ridiculous and I shook my head in disbelief.995Please respect copyright.PENANAEO8oxbHFIx
"So this whole thing is like a fire and ice relationship?" Taeyang asked.995Please respect copyright.PENANAiXY00srFTN
Oh great! Not Taeyang too! The argument G-Dragon and I had created a story in these guy's heads.995Please respect copyright.PENANA4KbquQfKy1
"Ya, I'm already 995Please respect copyright.PENANAYRKB5vfEc0
imagining it," said Zoey, staring off into a distance, obviously in her 995Please respect copyright.PENANAPLmxlxQO1q
imagination. "G-Dragon and Sam, like Scorpion and Subzero."995Please respect copyright.PENANAD026lwhp8x
"Ya, I can imagine it too," said Mike, also staring off into a distance.995Please respect copyright.PENANAG3BB3zqOCE
"Sam looks so hot in her Subzero outfit," said Seungri, also deep in thought and biting his lower lip.995Please respect copyright.PENANA11zgeGG9hN
"So hot," said TOP, nodding his head absent mindley.995Please respect copyright.PENANARZbez0nyZS
"So does GD in Scorpion's outfit," said Zoey.995Please respect copyright.PENANAqbMwINu1GZ
"Ya, their relationship is now like fire and ice," said Daesung. "Let's just see who wins."995Please respect copyright.PENANAOItdDTcmdW
As I watched the others 995Please respect copyright.PENANAtCjHlb4v0v
share out their silly ideas of how the fight would turn out, I couldn't 995Please respect copyright.PENANAeVwjE6Gsyc
help but realise that they were right. Right now, GD and I weren't okay 995Please respect copyright.PENANATlPiSCoZMl
at all. To the outside world, we were friends, but to ourselves and our 995Please respect copyright.PENANAAhguuJ4IVC
closet friends, we weren't. One moment we were smiling at each other but995Please respect copyright.PENANAsU6a60uDRn
soon afterwards we were fighting again.995Please respect copyright.PENANALdKT3AahAZ
I didn't know how all 995Please respect copyright.PENANAiDmrYfxIuf
this was going to end, but if G-Dragon and I didn't resolve our issue 995Please respect copyright.PENANAQlliCTj46X
soon, we might not just hurt each other but also the people around us, 995Please respect copyright.PENANAMlVDuJcLc3
especially our group members. And I wasn't going to let that happen.995Please respect copyright.PENANAqzQKnQAXIU
If that was the case, I 995Please respect copyright.PENANAmCCwahrPIu
had to win this no matter what. I didn't care if I was going to end up 995Please respect copyright.PENANAtSuLjTQaXG
getting burnt. I created this mess and I had to fix it no matter the 995Please respect copyright.PENANA3lK0RbJsUz
cost. Even if it meant I had to play along like the others. That 995Please respect copyright.PENANAeTr5GRBArn
G-Dragon is Scorpion and I am Subzero.995Please respect copyright.PENANAmLW4FCqmVP
That he is fire and I am ice.
