I was looking out 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAJUmfTtBl1K
through the car window on an early Thursday morning as we were being 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAa7ZRTqy0n9
driven to YG. I felt so much had happened since we got here, it felt 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAmx3tzh6JQD
like we had stayed in South Korea for so long when its only been five 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAjDTgX3uRxT
days. I already felt homesick and the feeling of going to YG this 1056Please respect copyright.PENANApkkB5YBC6P
morning, made me nervous.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA1tnWKRIMSS
I didn't know what to 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAqKHFibK0P9
expect when I get there. Yesterday was a total disaster and I prayed 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAgCFCsIrwek
that today it wouldn't be the same. But deep down, I knew I had to 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAUmGydgdl9Y
prepare myself for what's to come. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAzNcOBg60QR
Although the other 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAbcZWw2tDFf
Toxins and I were still on speaking terms like nothing had happened 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAmMdHULMkjd
during lunch yesterday, I could somehow feel the tension amongst 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAwg922Pr0Yo
ourselves. It's like we were now divided ever since I had suggested on 1056Please respect copyright.PENANASaDVqiFb2o
on all of us working on the lyrics for the song. Mike, Daniel and I on 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAld85gxz18d
one side, Zoey and Christine on the other. How I wish it never came to 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAnNIaXtGkpP
this and I regretted every moment of it. But as the saying goes, what's 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAiQJS7GiqcM
done is done.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAd7jzBLjUH9
We were all seated in 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAc900x32ibc
the car, the others talking amongst themselves with Lee and Collins 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAgqTwQiFvCY
while I was quiet and feeling out of place. We hadn't told Lee and 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA0SIl9VbcBO
Collins about our little conflict yesterday. We decided not to tell them1056Please respect copyright.PENANAHY4arGi0dR
until we came to a final decision. That's if it will even be necessary.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAihhma3bzTl
"Looks like someone is 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA1rU9HZpc9V
deep in their thoughts this morning," said Collins who sat in the front 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAQbpwxqcYfj
seat of the car and was looking at me through the rearview mirror.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAQF14yMQW30
"I just miss home, that's all," I said.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAiK0KB9S5uk
"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."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAcoxW7ehXrV
"Ya, sure." I tried to put up a smile, but it felt pointless.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAPakqDg8AlA
We finally arrived at 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAuIvWdUX4ds
our destination and when we all got out of the car, I couldn't help but 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAG1VBbWynFD
feel nervous. The five of us followed Collins and Lee into the YG 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAxNjDd2lLIm
building. As usual, we first had to go for practice. We left Collins and1056Please respect copyright.PENANAzbvwPpSDuj
Lee downstairs on the ground floor, while the rest of us took the 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAivVMBelPai
elevator heading for the changing rooms.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAexruMMVpxZ
After changing, we all met in one of the dance studios, ready for practice.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAw7AkBQSgTh
"So, what should we do first?" I asked. "Go through the same routine as always or come up with some new dance moves?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAjs3ZVSKYyW
"I don't see why we 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAz627bLTr7G
should come up with new dance moves," said Zoey. "I mean, it's not like 1056Please respect copyright.PENANARGJl3M9lYh
we have come up with a new song yet or anything."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAY2Cx1x2ICG
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.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAbt6GYGfCyc
"But we always come up 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAkmnxFaVWDT
with new dance moves even without a new song," said Mike. "I've come up 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAzHmG11NJeH
with some pretty good moves and I think we should try them out."1056Please respect copyright.PENANATLKXJAvlhr
"Well, okay then," said Zoey, shrugging her shoulders as though in doubt. "Let's give it a shot."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAMj53keOP2e
"Zoey, if you want you can just sit back and watch," I said. "It seems to me you don't want to do this."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAheYLLdlPEP
"No, I want to, believe me," said Zoey.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA4MU2fYYuNc
"Okay, if you say so," I turned to Mike. "So, what new ideas do you have?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAHnR2wbIarD
Mike soon begun teaching1056Please respect copyright.PENANAU0BcdUxIpZ
us some of the dance moves he had come up with and without fail, we all1056Please respect copyright.PENANAcMmmV0Zq4h
got to know them quickly even when we made a few mistakes here and 1056Please respect copyright.PENANANi2VnHqYmx
there. We soon got a hang of it after going through it a number of 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAaPcgqOicTc
times, it turned out to be perfect and we liked it. Sometimes back home 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAsOkVfEdx0m
when our choreographer, Jimmy wasn't available, Mike would step in and 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAYIAfOqKwaD
act as our choreographer instead. Most of the time, the two would both 1056Please respect copyright.PENANANUBi2OHytq
work together, and they made a pretty good team.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAA0X2MDKYPU
After going through the 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAsRaHcGtEPI
dance moves flawlessly with what seemed like the fourth time, we decided1056Please respect copyright.PENANAsNyp5efDNB
to take a break. And when I went to collect my water bottle on a rack 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAlrVYRlKIOa
where we laid our training bags, I noticed from the corner of my eye 1056Please respect copyright.PENANApLVPLIN2cB
that the door stood slightly open. That's weird. The last time I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA1xO0tutBxN
checked, the door was closed and I am pretty sure of it.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAuXysI5shzk
When I turned to face 1056Please respect copyright.PENANACzWde1sl4V
the door, I noticed a shadow, and it moved. Someone was definitely 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAboHLsZx2tP
behind the door. I started to walk towards it and when I got to the 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAB2whA9e31I
door, I was surprised with what I saw. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAsrFCoC9wvV
Standing behind the door1056Please respect copyright.PENANAPnyUryyyBV
were two young trainees, probably in their teens, a male and female. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAgWkDp4bdsw
When I saw them face to face behind the door, they seemed frightened and1056Please respect copyright.PENANAWNP1seBiUt
they bowed their heads.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAY1PHoDMLBM
At that moment I didn't have any words to say as I kept staring at them.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAUykpk5DPpO
"Hey, Sam, who is by the door?" Christine called out to me.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA2mGNKMPAYO
I couldn't even reply. I1056Please respect copyright.PENANA3iT8U6d3as
didn't even know where to start explaining to Christine that there were1056Please respect copyright.PENANAng5a154rvz
young trainees by the door, who were probably watching us practice.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAyzyIkcUpEj
Before I could say anything, the girl said, "we're sorry. We didn't mean to spy on you while you were practising."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAcOPvK8XLAn
"Yes, we're sorry," said the boy. "We were just leaving."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAKU8UwzAM5O
With their heads still bowed low, they slowly started to back away.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAqBDc2dKsKE
"Wait, stop," I said.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAP4sBSPahFA
The two trainees immediately stopped as though they were robots. It felt a little weird, but I quickly brushed off the feeling.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA0c4oIhu5ak
"Please, come in," I said, stepping aside and widening the door for them.1056Please respect copyright.PENANASApzW6c2j9
For a moment, the 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAWOXBKoqR3R
trainees looked on at me with scared looks on their faces. I can tell 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAYlZQxKKBvf
why. It was probably some of the rules set around the place and they 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA7pFKwJw7NG
must have found it quiet weird that I, the famous B.K, had told them to 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAQeHTjmN37Z
come in.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAJVtOB9nrv3
"아니요 (Aniyo)," said the 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAPbQL6kBoQB
boy. I recognised that he said 'no'. I don't know Korean, but there were1056Please respect copyright.PENANA4vCNNhdS2R
some basic words I got to know so far from watching some K-Drama 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAv3S0ZJDWhk
series.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAvfjzQcYjFj
"I mean, no," said the boy, this time in English. "That won't be necessary."1056Please respect copyright.PENANArNKgvhVXUD
"No, I insist," I said. "Come on in, we don't bite."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAbwYRYUHVLS
Zoey soon appeared behind me and asked, "what's going on? Are these fans of ours?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAskitdTLElh
"Well, maybe," I said. "Don't try to intimidate them. You know you scare people."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAXwoU5rcQiZ
"No, I don't," Zoey 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAM37pFTd5JF
turned to face the trainees and said, "you guys can come on in and 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA2EpLN3iO7Z
practice with us. You're YG trainees, right?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAiVIxFPFudx
The two trainees 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA29G2LEYLek
nervously nodded, still with their heads bowed low. I looked on at the 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAC8zQUQgWC1
trainees, then at Zoey, then back at the trainees again.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAQUgcPUg7qf
"If you are worried 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAKoQwGCimLE
about getting in trouble with Yang Hyun-suk, don't worry about it," I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAX12ZfU08Ia
said. "You can come and practice with us. You don't have to be afraid."1056Please respect copyright.PENANARKOaI4vPHp
The two trainees looked 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA1q7HwBghyt
at me and this time, they looked really excited. By the looks on their 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA7kVIT7I2Wg
faces, I bet they were fans, and probably the idea of dancing with The 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAHWE6nNAgGX
Toxins seemed like a dream come true. I knew how that felt, because once1056Please respect copyright.PENANAxn3MNVYfMg
upon a time, I was once in their shoes.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAr8oScSsuiS
"Re-really?" the girl asked, looking at me with excitement in her eyes.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAhvUmgHWIpH
"Ya, sure. Why not?" I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAkhA3FeH1gy
jerked my head to the side, telling them to come in. I knew I was 1056Please respect copyright.PENANANMhd9SmO4m
already in trouble with Yang Hyun-suk because of what happened at 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAU44iQcIJq1
Caribbean Bay, so I didn't mind if I got into more trouble just because 1056Please respect copyright.PENANArznhlSAMF7
of allowing innocent trainees to come and practice with us.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAMUbyZNcKBf
The trainees gladly followed as Zoey and I led the way.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAAor8ur5kIM
"Oh, I see you brought in some friends," said Daniel as he saw us approaching. "Welcome guys."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAeyIU61efY5
"Thank you," said the two trainees at the same time, with huge big smiles on their faces.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAtfwK0e32cV
"You guys don't mind if they join us, do you?" I asked the others.1056Please respect copyright.PENANApZHeUPZr5i
"Not at all," said Mike.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAAQW1ol31Ln
"Ya, it's good to have people around, much less our fans," said Christine. "It's going to be so much fun."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAASdT7r2AZp
"Wow, this is like a dream come true," said the girl. "I never knew I would be dancing with you guys."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAQEBCiGczbA
"You better believe it, girl," said Zoey, giving the girl a wink. "Dreams do come true."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAmW2SnqsuPL
"So, should we teach them the new dance moves we have been working on?" Mike asked as he turned to me.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAfD8LYq714v
"Ya, sure," I said. "It's okay with me."1056Please respect copyright.PENANA6qNaFKqWJ1
Mike soon started to 1056Please respect copyright.PENANALVGMFIrdjW
teach the trainees the dance moves and surprisingly, they got to learn 1056Please respect copyright.PENANALs5OckRMwg
it quicker than I anticipated. They were really talented, I had to give 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAQKaU94LtfY
them credit for that.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAeAA7o9CvOJ
"Wow, for trainees, you're really good," said Mike, as he turned to face them.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA6lN5SORFBi
"We try," said the boy. "We have been watching you practise, so it wasn't that hard."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAvawmyF2JGr
"We didn't get to know your names," said Daniel.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAEQJ4uyRMNL
"I'm Soo Mi," said the girl.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAM0h059pxFr
"I'm Young Jin," said the boy.1056Please respect copyright.PENANABvdzhAcrfJ
"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?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAW7nWBJlw9y
Everyone agreed. We 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAYqwqnZwWdH
positioned ourselves and started going through the moves again and it 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAK4ryW4zBDE
was awesome. When we were done, everyone cheered and we all gave each 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAAdLoGCXkeo
other high fives.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAlp1zCyMl4O
"This is so much fun," I said.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAzPqYSc42QZ
"Ya, I know, we should be doing this more often with other trainees," said Mike.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA3nx54egcBq
"Ya, but we have to finish this dance routine, Mike," said Zoey. "So, work on it."1056Please respect copyright.PENANApNpdgRTHjo
While I turned to talk to the trainees, I noticed Lee come into the studio. And she seemed to be coming straight for me.1056Please respect copyright.PENANALmBDWsCrhv
"Sam, we need to go," said Lee as she came close.1056Please respect copyright.PENANATn41U00MfG
"Go? Go where?" I asked looking confused.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAPaUTi1PLUL
"The reporters are here, you know, over the video of you and G-Dragon."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAd4mxnIPq6K
Yikes! I was enjoying 1056Please respect copyright.PENANANWxu45rt3A
myself with practice and being friends with the trainees, I forgot all 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAEunySwOoSm
about the video. I wish the reporters should just forget about the 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA2FErAMzawy
stupid video for once and let it be.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA6qIdWBpYAo
But that wasn't my only 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAR0MgMVwDsP
fear. I am going to be with GD for the interview and the thought of 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA4dL3Qni1LR
being next to him somehow made me nervous. I realised that I had 1056Please respect copyright.PENANANQG42elW8e
goosebumps all over my arms just at the thought of it. I just hope he 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAfN1FKiTNeD
isn't mad at me anymore. But I was going to trust my gut and say that he1056Please respect copyright.PENANAGDD07vtOiP
probably still is.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAjd7mHoKIDy
"Wait, they are having their interview today?" Zoey asked.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAgVNYWdvug7
"Yes, and right now," said Lee. "Go and freshen up, Sam. You must be ready within fifteen minutes."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAnC1biPMTu4
"Um, okay," I said. I could even hear my voice breaking. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA1O0zrCuKTP
"Is GD already here?" Christine asked.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAwd424sImRf
When Christine asked the1056Please respect copyright.PENANA3dsveNDxYp
question, I felt my heart stop beating. Eish! I was nervous for sure. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANALqcKufXaLY
The thought of GD being here almost made me want to run.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAQrf7Njj5mM
"No, but he will be here any moment," Lee replied. "Come on, Sam. You better take a shower."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAe6FbVQQ8Ak
Somehow, it felt good 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA0dqtDj44cY
that I was going to take a shower. Maybe I would cool off and try to 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA5iOqeoAUgS
calm down with all of this. But I felt that wasn't going to be the case.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA9flxaQiihz
"See you later, guys," I said as I followed Lee who led the way out of the studio.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAxWGtWoRZyU
Everyone waved and 1056Please respect copyright.PENANALhvJKs2sGn
wished me luck. Dealing with reporters wasn't easy and you just didn't 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAZJhuZB5FuQ
need luck to confront them. You needed guts and confidence.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAf6IxYuqZiR
I needed luck to be on my side though, because dealing with G-Dragon wasn't going to be easy.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAL2DULwaPBY
***1056Please respect copyright.PENANA8pSnyD4iyh
The make-up artists were1056Please respect copyright.PENANAiPK2crco7c
done powdering my face and my hair was all combed and tied up in a pony1056Please respect copyright.PENANAYnVQ3oT5Dd
tail. I wanted to look simple in front of the cameras and reporters 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAGn57kXHePO
just like I always have. Except whenever I have to shoot for music 1056Please respect copyright.PENANANEfTCtE2G2
videos and taking photo shoots, I have to apply make-up just to fit in 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAGldSN0F6MY
with the scene.1056Please respect copyright.PENANABhz7vkC0dt
When the make-up artists1056Please respect copyright.PENANAuCTEeRgJcB
were done and I was applying pink lip gloss on my lips, I heard quick 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAnmg8mT6uA0
chattering behind me and someone mentioned G-Dragon's name. I turned to 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAYd0hFAs7qb
look behind me and I saw G-Dragon entering the dressing room.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA5W4JobrvDh
My heart skipped a beat 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAaYF4VeyEyY
as I watched him. He didn't seem to notice me at first because of the 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA72YLB4noYZ
make-up artists and clothe designers that surrounded him trying to 1056Please respect copyright.PENANADGc3x5ehtr
figure out if he needed a bit of make-up and a change of clothes. But 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAWCMaqG4pFl
just the way he was dressed seemed okay to me and they seemed to have 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAuwn2uQBcyO
noticed that too because, they backed away from him and went on to do 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAKetuP27MvI
their own things.1056Please respect copyright.PENANArMDkAnZEe2
He dyed his hair blonde 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAaNgSeVDVD9
this time around and it matched with his white fancy jacket with gold 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAkgMFDfq6WF
studs on the collar and a black shirt beneath. They never call him a 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAKpe2HIJwWz
fashionista for nothing.1056Please respect copyright.PENANADYEbg4zO3L
When he looked in my direction, he saw me and he immediately looked the other way as though I was nothing.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAeSt8oYjUEj
Ouch! That's gotta hurt!1056Please respect copyright.PENANAG3SjLWQri2
I felt my face grow hot in embarrassment. He was still mad at me. I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAwSkLe4mxl3
slowly turned to face the mirror again trying to act like nothing was 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAdJAV1uU6LU
wrong, when I was actually hurt.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAsONRwCh4wf
Through the mirror, I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA2sxc9aXabf
saw G-Dragon take a seat on the other side of the dressing room facing a1056Please respect copyright.PENANA6uZTIu2PYo
mirror. He was looking down on his phone, probably texting or 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA22jSQ8TvUG
something, and I continued to stare at him.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAobBtBBnUg6
G-Dragon looked up at 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAddLS21Vj3l
the mirror in front of him and I bet he saw me looking at him through my1056Please respect copyright.PENANAOjX6QL2BFA
mirror because he had a funny look on his face and he went back to 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAA7Ad2wZkVT
looking at his phone. Bummer! I could tell by the way he looked at the 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAnayPnlKerh
mirror that he obviously saw me looking at him. I sighed in deep regret 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA6SWdp0GGJM
and looked the other way. I had never felt so alone.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAdEGn4RjVDl
Then all of the sudden, 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA4WaVfUl4ra
someone behind me held my shoulders and I almost jumped in fright. I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA9QbDoYvBny
looked behind me and there stood Daesung. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAqFQKUI5TCd
"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?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANANlHAuher9N
At that moment, I was so1056Please respect copyright.PENANAXzTPIVwW9b
glad that he was here. Right now I needed someone to talk to. I smiled 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAiWpLdkNI4c
back up at him. His smile and his presence seemed to have brighten my 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAwjRBcTlxbQ
mood a little.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA0gnD9UTUr3
"Take a seat and I'll tell you," I said.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA6Lwou0O4Ju
"Okay, sounds serious," said Daesung as he grabbed a chair and sat next to me.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA5QojcWB2os
When I looked at 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAVsNAkEYENo
Daesung, I felt myself blush. With our shoulders almost brushing each 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAzgvfx6myEf
other, I could feel the electric pull between us and I hope he wasn't 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAYHOLaTSCv1
feeling it too. It brought back memories of what happened the day before1056Please respect copyright.PENANAz0BNv1u7Op
yesterday. The two of us hadn't even tried to bring up that topic yet. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAU2j9fy0hNI
Maybe we never will.1056Please respect copyright.PENANApxn9yy2qrX
"So, tell me, what's wrong?" Daesung asked.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAs72Ry3Wkfb
"Everything is wrong," I slowly replied.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAIr3lYlVLBD
"Is it about yesterday?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANA7P17pTAzav
"Ya, it is."1056Please respect copyright.PENANASm9bidyAVE
Daesung looked behind 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAW2SCEJ8ob0
him because he knew what I was taking about. I also turned and G-Dragon 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAT1po6LcTcd
was still on his phone ignoring everyone around him. He seemed lost in 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAAXPaRFJ9fy
his own world.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAumV8LPr3VF
"He's still mad, isn't he?" Daesung asked as he turned to face me.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAoyeyf5YvK4
"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."1056Please respect copyright.PENANA6dAv3043BZ
"Let's just hope he doesn't stay that way for long."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAIZilcgzsgN
"I hope so too. But why do I get the feeling that this is only going to get worse?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAwEETM6IgLZ
"Stop thinking like that, okay?" Daesung held my hand that was on my lap. That sent tingles up my arm and down my spine.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAJeDqhNRglA
"I can't, Daesung," I said. "My gut feeling has never failed me before. Why should it now?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAIt82bHp9Mf
"I don't have the answer to that. And it seems to me you really trust your gut a lot."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAsnyru8k5Dy
"Dah, I always do," I said rolling my eyes playfully as I smiled.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAa8PpYmwsTV
Daesung laughed and that1056Please respect copyright.PENANAZ0ImE9lYde
caused me to laugh also. I felt so relieved that I shared this with 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAv1Rn577pqh
Daesung. He is so nice, caring and understanding, just like Taeyang.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAGKGUDP0RNq
I soon felt someone's 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAPhhicARuOc
eyes on me as I laughed. I looked behind me. For a moment, I had a 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAjXAAJa1Xy0
feeling that G-Dragon was staring at us through the mirror, but his eyes1056Please respect copyright.PENANAJvTs2RXEZ8
were still on the phone. Maybe I was just imagining things.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAU8W3BgRk3Y
Lee suddenly came in the dressing room and said, "Sam, Ji Yong, it's time to go. The reporters are waiting."1056Please respect copyright.PENANA0UanqbEe5p
I quickly stood up and 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAUk5XmptZ9k
checked if my clothes were alright. I was wearing a blue summer dress 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAGSWpbKr3Ta
with purple flowers on it and white flats.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAqQwYKg9IaU
"You look beautiful, Sam," said Daesung. "Just stunning."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAgjT6lD6EJF
I smiled and I blushed like crazy. Right now, I had to focus on the interview and Daesung was sweeping me off my feet.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAngZJZHp2Iv
"Thanks, Daesung," I smiled, as I continued to blush.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAAby3eCdieQ
I noticed G-Dragon stare1056Please respect copyright.PENANA4z1mGU4F0j
at us as he stood up from his chair. And when I turned to face him, he 1056Please respect copyright.PENANACLcVuScy7u
quickly looked away and walked out of the dressing room, bypassing Lee 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAYNg5qw7KX6
who was by the door. For a moment, the room was silent as everyone, 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAujmpQaoxQl
including the people who worked around the dressing room, noticed 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAQclLWrG4nw
G-Dragon's odd behaviour.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA8hsb7FfYIN
"Wow. What's wrong with him?" Lee asked as she pointed her thumb down the hall where G-Dragon had passed.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA1B45pPJV13
"Long story," I answered. "We better go."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAB4VqAP8CMI
Lee nodded her head and I turned to face Daesung.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA4DGmCNw7u7
"You'll be fine, don't worry about it," said Daesung as he smiled at me.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAivz1kS5PjA
"Thanks," I tried to put up a smile, but it all felt useless.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAOwarKDQVbB
Lee and I walked out of 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA6fwZuSO0Jv
the dressing room together and it seemed like G-Dragon had already taken1056Please respect copyright.PENANAPgTnvqImb1
off into the elevator without us because he wasn't in the hallway. The 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAN3KY8HBCKy
guilt came back to settle within me and I couldn't help but blame myself1056Please respect copyright.PENANATiL5RzavEj
that it was all my fault he was acting this way.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA65M4JRf9Yo
When Lee and I got into 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAWsRNp2dpjq
the elevator, she asked, "why does G-Dragon seem so upset? I noticed the1056Please respect copyright.PENANAKx7zMK1CNT
way he looked at you. Weren't you supposed to be mad at him for what 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAJTXMJNMTwt
happened at Caribbean Bay?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAPThKnQoshD
"A lot has happened that1056Please respect copyright.PENANAoKyCcRBBP1
you don't know about, Lee," I said, staring at my feet as the elevator 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAbjqT8n1fOk
continued to move. "So much that I can't explain."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAUCaaVSP0GD
"Like what? I heard you guys had lunch yesterday and things didn't turn out well."1056Please respect copyright.PENANApsBJPgJWUe
"Where did you hear that from?" I asked as I quickly turned to look at her.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA84VEw45Z5X
"Too much gossip among 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAgZEG9B50oa
the working staff at the hotel," said Lee with a smile. "Don't worry 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA60BhWHv9r5
though. They said it didn't seem so serious."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAuFKz2ooqe4
"Wait? You understand Korean?" I grew even more surprised when that thought suddenly dawned on me.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAvVktFnhYia
"Dah," said Lee, rolling1056Please respect copyright.PENANA33lLAX8064
her eyes and the elevator doors slid open. "Why do you think I was able1056Please respect copyright.PENANAvrlaydb6EO
to hold Yang Hyun-suk and Collins for so long at YG? Oh, and don't tell1056Please respect copyright.PENANApCwDIZyLP0
Collins. He doesn't know either."1056Please respect copyright.PENANANcU7e6zqup
"You never told me what happened," I said as the two of us stepped out of the elevator.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAKBuLSkKcTp
"Well, I think the both 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAQju5wPYLDS
of us have a lot of catching up to do after this," said Lee as we both 1056Please respect copyright.PENANArDxpUG57vh
walked down the hallway and turned round the corner. "Right now, it's 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAOUY0xseC62
showtime."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAAWeddLAqKM
It was showtime indeed. I1056Please respect copyright.PENANAVWYKvWSBdT
found Collins, Yang Hyun-suk and G-Dragon talking amongst themselves in1056Please respect copyright.PENANA4Z5qkQproZ
the hallway. Behind them was the door that led to the conference room. I1056Please respect copyright.PENANAyQaNmPrczV
could hear voices of the reporters behind the door and I felt my palms 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAzafenee2RF
starting to sweat. I wasn't such a fan of interviews and I hated them.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAHMkNxrwno3
"Ah, here she comes," said Yang Hyun-suk as he noticed Lee and I approach. "You're looking very lovely today."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAwSnLF1LQGY
I bowed my head at him and said slowly, "gomawoyo (고마워요) (thank you), Hyun-suk Sajangnim (사장님) (Boss)."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAg9BwkzXyW7
"I'm impressed," said Yang Hyun-suk, with a smile on his face. "You're really learning."1056Please respect copyright.PENANA3VVfQ4dgvu
"Well, I try to do the best I could," I said.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA7r3fNpSauz
"Sam really knows how to adapt to the environment she's in," said Collins. "No wonder she's so smart."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAKXNPqxS8YM
"No doubt about that," said Yang Hyun-suk. "And she's looking really lovely today, isn't that right, GD?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANA88gsnbNudH
My heart almost skipped a1056Please respect copyright.PENANAHMN151GXMB
beat as I turned to look at G-Dragon who was also looking at me. For a 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA4XjeZgzo2A
moment, he didn't reply and I was scared at what he was going to say.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA2ezy8lmAeU
Surprisingly, he managed1056Please respect copyright.PENANAB1XaYtZElX
to put up a smile on his face. For a moment there, his smile seemed 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAn9tAMOX2wI
genuine, but I could feel the negative energy behind it.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAXEh0brOcFy
"Yes, she does look lovely today," G-Dragon replied.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAUFKDG7aQUT
I didn't know whether I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAwuS8CPvIWu
should run or remain where I was. I couldn't stand this any longer. I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAXJzdDpzFXU
felt he was some psychopathic killer ready to jump on me when no one was1056Please respect copyright.PENANA0HGY9sM3iQ
looking. And honestly, I felt pretty terrified.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA8eA6GEWhPz
The door soon flew open 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAKS3IaAIvEY
and someone came to inform us that everything was all set and ready to 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAnOYlymTxTG
go. I breathed out heavily as I tried to calm myself and we walked 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAqlpntRORT4
towards the door. My palms were still sweaty.1056Please respect copyright.PENANABYaBRfs0f0
"Hey, don't worry about a thing," said Lee as she reached me to the door. "You'll be alright."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAISLx6F7Ao5
All I could do was nod my head at Lee and I stepped in to the conference room first with G-Dragon behind me.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA8wdEv8E2GM
The flashing lights of 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAHNXOaOS7uB
the cameras flashed around me. They blinded my eyes for a moment, but I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAe4gURM5dO3
pretended not to flinch as I continued to walk up to the small podium 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA2NtL58Dmyn
and there stood a table with four chairs.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAXMutnhWdoK
I got up to the podium 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAL6mb0RzbuD
and I was guided where to sit. There were four chairs behind the table 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAb323OF33V2
and I sat in the middle and G-Dragon sat next to me. Collins sat to my 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAnj8SvP2mRx
left while Yang Hyun-suk sat to G-Dragon's right.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAqXrNkGftHH
The bright lights of the1056Please respect copyright.PENANAJkdtvVaEcr
flashing cameras continued to flash in front of my eyes and it took 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAkG6qMsGLAG
time to regain my vision. I soon noticed that there were a lot more 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAkQrJ1VzzvX
reporters and camera men in the conference room than I had anticipated. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAuvTyZij6cp
My hands were as sweaty as hell and I felt them shivering. I bet this 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAtUkxwHlTCf
interview was going live on national TV because I noticed video cameras 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAZqqV2ROMzl
around the room.1056Please respect copyright.PENANABobgJAm7nf
"Good morning, 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAU51kPLX7HE
everyone," said Yang Hyun-suk through the set of microphones that were 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAR49K8il7K3
in front of him on the table. "We may now proceed with the interview. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAzZJ3711O1s
You may begin to ask your questions."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAuLgrkAXlni
The thing I always hated1056Please respect copyright.PENANAtFjREdnYyn
about interviews, was that reporters could ask the dumbest questions, 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAnoQrHOHCYx
the personal ones, the most hurtful ones, the most confusing ones and 1056Please respect copyright.PENANARjYsG1BsYX
the inappropriate ones. I hoped and prayed that the first question 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAfgPfDgdxaQ
wasn't going to be any of the five I had in mind. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAZun2IV1DSW
A lady among the 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA5dpHQdb2P1
reporters raised her hand and Yang Hyun-suk told her to proceed. I had 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAlxklBL5yZe
my fingers crossed. I always hated such moments.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA2Vj4zb4CXk
"I'm Mi Sun from MBC 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAUBU75almt1
TV," said the reporter. "On Tuesday this week, a video of YG's own 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAySc1z49SZk
phenomenal artist, G-Dragon, and Samantha Glasson, also known as B.K, 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA5FshWYXXcb
was released on YouTube and almost became a worldwide trend. My 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA4Wlrfa4fsY
question, probably on everyone's mind is, are the two of them dating?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAD3yD2yBGGs
Yang Hyun-suk answered, 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAZL964Q2J4v
"we can assure you that the two of them aren't dating. That video wasn't1056Please respect copyright.PENANAvU1mkNbXsG
supposed to be aired on YouTube."1056Please respect copyright.PENANARsB0HYWlyN
"If it wasn't supposed to be aired, then who did this and why?" the reporter asked.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAsSSr03MweI
Ah, oh. Was this the 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAzYFHpEGe9b
part where either G-Dragon and I were supposed to answer the question? 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA12utwvvKzt
If so, I wasn't ready to tell them that my very own best friend had done1056Please respect copyright.PENANAJfPrxAhWpQ
all this. I feared of what the outcome may be.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAdxyoyZ2S5K
"The person who took the video was none other than our very own, Zoey," Collins answered.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAkVrFnyPp6O
From the corner of my 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAbkP0L0qKPJ
eye, I looked at Collins. I knew Collins wouldn't want to make Zoey look1056Please respect copyright.PENANA3fhJOwAZfA
bad for any reason at all, but it looks like he and Yang Hyun-suk were 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA4kY1aljn2J
sticking to the truth. I might as well just do the same.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAy7N0l1guV9
Another reporter, a man this time around, raised a hand and Yang Hyun-suk allowed him to speak.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAx7S1O5qorI
"Thank you, my name is 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAu8uP3d7hUt
Jin Soo from KBS," said the male reporter. "I think a lot of people 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAzzLSIX5OaM
would want to know after hearing all of this, why would Zoey post that 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAALIRMZKV9n
video? From the look of things, what was going on between GD and BK 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAB8NGqKT21O
seemed like a private affair, or was the video all for show?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAt6tJTDvTV3
This was what I feared. I1056Please respect copyright.PENANAMwwRxiLChf
bet a lot of our fans were thinking G-Dragon and I were actually dating1056Please respect copyright.PENANABR9hELjxuF
and had high hopes. Now that people know the truth, it would crush the 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAaqR5ECKpn7
fans and Zoey would end up being the villain. But telling the truth was 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA1yHKorxFMR
really the best option. It wouldn't seem right, now that GD and I were 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA1UuxbKeVGS
clearly not on good terms at the moment, to tell the whole world a lie.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAh8tEc10BmZ
"I think I'll answer that question," said G-Dragon.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAwFrSGT2fSw
For a moment, my heart 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA3OBn4Z5ovr
almost skipped a beat as G-Dragon spoke through the mic. I turned to 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAOE3vJs1Efw
look at him. I just hoped he wasn't going to say anything that would 1056Please respect copyright.PENANArBOUvAPUYd
raise more questions from the reporters.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAqbQZnDLadz
"The video you saw on YouTube wasn't for show," said G-Dragon. "All that was actually real."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAqsY9sxFkNL
"And you allowed Zoey to take the video?" the male reporter asked.1056Please respect copyright.PENANABaDI57EJaI
"No, apparently, we never realised that Zoey was taking the video until it was already too late."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAALRQcPm3cD
"But why did she do all that? Can you explain what her intentions were at the time?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAY0exsyPkdp
I knew G-Dragon wasn't 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAqYBI41ucRY
going to answer that question because no one knew Zoey better than I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAH0Hsk3JZVN
did. So without realising it, I stepped in.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAy60O7q31by
"I know what Zoey did by1056Please respect copyright.PENANAJ8PAsH1rwJ
releasing the video has raised a lot of questions in everyone's mind," I1056Please respect copyright.PENANA3s9FfC3K5l
said, confidently. "Many of our fans had high hopes that GD and I were 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAEV1XfOV57T
dating, but that's not the case. What happened was nothing but a 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAY0OqVhM11J
misunderstanding."1056Please respect copyright.PENANA88Cjzg8Be5
Immediately I said those1056Please respect copyright.PENANA6pnS5aaKhl
words, everyone's eyes were on me now, including those around the world1056Please respect copyright.PENANAKigES4cjlu
probably watching on their television screens or devices. Yang 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAo45yf7u5hh
Hyun-suk, Collins and G-Dragon also stared at me. The camera lights kept1056Please respect copyright.PENANA5Hvh7fd9Xr
on flashing in my face like crazy. I wish I could tell the camera men 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA2FouRKHTWP
to stop because the flashing lights were so annoying. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAUMbuKoNbJS
I continued before any 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA3iw4lcmhe1
reporter could ask what I meant. "The truth is, what was going on 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAxURZbT71g3
between GD and I was real. He gave me chocolates and roses because he 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAX0yPaEnb7Q
was trying to make up for not being there for me the previous day and to1056Please respect copyright.PENANADrtfKUQ1eD
congratulate me on making it on the Elle Korean Magazine Cover. So, him1056Please respect copyright.PENANANzUvA1opPm
giving me those gifts were more like saying 'congratulations' and 'I'm 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAtAhNP1VmhP
sorry for not being there' kind of thing."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5BifsrtQJ
For a moment, no one 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA8IVIdZZg0m
said a word, not even the reporters. I turned to Collins, who gave me a 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAGuHvNKQIIo
nod to go on. I continued to stare at the audience of reporters and 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAiu1RviB99j
camera men. I could feel G-Dragon's eyes on me though. But that 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAXiTm4akusb
shouldn't intimidate me. I cleared my throat and went on.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAKS5NGWvs6n
"And knowing Zoey, she's1056Please respect copyright.PENANA2CZOzxW1NP
one who likes to capture such beautiful moments. So, she decided to 1056Please respect copyright.PENANANX2x684Asy
take a video of what was happening. And before we could realise what was1056Please respect copyright.PENANAxOAM1onLHm
going on, it was already too late. She first posted it on her fan base,1056Please respect copyright.PENANAD1O5M8Ore7
which she usually does. But before she could take it down, her loyal 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAlQsS6jNscF
fans had already seen it and probably one of them posted it on YouTube. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA9QCH3abHUU
And that's how everything came to be up to this point."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAnAz3LjZWh5
All the reporters who 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAOjWJ6xSzHd
were taking down what I was saying, started muttering among themselves 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAmMGTA1SlSp
as though we were in a debate room. I didn't know what they would 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAtHM2TKn8ue
obviously be talking about and I hoped that they weren't going to ask a 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAibMWiPqeqY
question that might just intimidate me.1056Please respect copyright.PENANANq3ZOHGuiR
The same female reporter from MBC raised her hand and she was told to proceed. I feared for my life.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAu4BTujMJc4
"So what you're trying to say, B.K, is that all this is Zoey's fault?" the reporter asked.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAnIcDMeyhvS
"Well, I could blame 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAmestcJ2nL5
Zoey because she was the one who took the video in the first place and 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA17ONCLM2Ho
without our permission. But it's not entirely her fault," I replied. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAQ32TvvnJjl
"I've grown to know her very well because she's my best friend. I know 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAT1svLyJLbN
she didn't mean any harm by raising people's hopes that we were dating. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAA51GgBYuNs
Knowing her, she thought she could try to capture the great friendship 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAFYVW7jRotd
that G-Dragon and I have."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAp0bN6sEmkE
What was I saying? I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAh4GYtojrIZ
know I am being honest and genuine, but saying it with G-Dragon by my 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA6R6PHPi0KL
side felt awkward. If people got to know that G-Dragon and I had quiet a1056Please respect copyright.PENANAdUDPZxaQJt
misunderstanding the other day, it would surly raise questions and the 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAWRKYmd1lUs
whole world would criticise me.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA68p1EoCYwV
I stared at G-Dragon 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAHBMMQztc3G
beside me and he was still staring at me. I could see it in his eyes 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAHSMG1kFiFJ
that me saying all that felt wrong, but all that happened way before the1056Please respect copyright.PENANAC50Tgx5FYI
argument. I was hurting as I said all that and I wish I could turn back1056Please respect copyright.PENANA72aJSUnrMp
the hands of time and set things right.1056Please respect copyright.PENANANnv8kdcOPw
"And also, she's always 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAM83kf0BlL0
admired G-Dragon," I continued, as I turned to the audience. "So, I bet 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAWTNgLVgEz5
she was trying to capture G-Dragon's great personality. We all know how 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAxg0YrsA6AE
much of a good guy he is, so, that's why Zoey did all that."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAAqC9T59Wan
I think I had said 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAV7vlCwXgyJ
enough and I kept quiet. This was awkward and I could feel that G-Dragon1056Please respect copyright.PENANAyblDBpeokt
was feeling the same way. All I wanted was for this interview to be 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAwFnlqkHqJW
over and get out of the conference room.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAvoRSmIDOTD
"So, you two are clearly not dating?" the reporter asked.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA3eU1BTTCne
"No," G-Dragon and I replied at the same time.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAi7GeqO8oP7
Okay. That felt weird. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAc1J6V8Aopz
My eyes flew at G-Dragon and he also turned to look at me. That made 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAntYyMg4pdw
things even more weirder. I bet those watching on national TV would 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAiLLEBjOrmz
either find all of this a show or something beyond the ordinary.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA7aVCaiyx4I
"And you guys wouldn't 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAI5FVlmihaj
like to date in future?" the reporter continued. "Because a lot has been1056Please respect copyright.PENANAxlIyBJValE
said since the video came out that you two would make a great couple."1056Please respect copyright.PENANA1T4xNGtEtk
"No, we wouldn't."1056Please respect copyright.PENANA9U08PPuHPt
Dang it! We replied at 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA4Nl7QAHQvh
the same time, again! This wasn't going so well and we both knew it as 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAgcPXc732rn
we stared at each other. These were the times you would tell the 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAtktzPuuUEz
reporters to mind their own business and walk away like you didn't care.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAVGq3ECSRKD
This was turning out to be just terrible.1056Please respect copyright.PENANABgqxv1Tt7T
"There would be no need 1056Please respect copyright.PENANACotI0zdbl1
to ask such questions," said Collins. "The Toxins are here in South 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAjhu5ufOGPK
Korea strictly for business. There would be no point for Sam and Ji Yong1056Please respect copyright.PENANA4KNxVi8ven
to start dating when The Toxins would obviously stay here for less than1056Please respect copyright.PENANAI5pSOySqIj
a month or two."1056Please respect copyright.PENANADq5Nod3AeV
Phew! Thank you, 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA7nvdAqemjt
Collins! No wonder I considered him as my top guardian angel. I was so 1056Please respect copyright.PENANARQwFw7xSut
glad that he finally decided to step in or else I would obviously have 1056Please respect copyright.PENANApZ156oLhne
told the reporter to piss off.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA7kGgGAWbuo
"So, how is the song 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA1LdCkzRMne
coming along?" the reporter asked. "Because I heard The Toxins and 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAazJSOuUtuP
BigBang had quiet a fun ride at Caribbean Bay the day before."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAx2WF9TYvwH
Oh no. That question was clearly not necessary. Aargh! This was what I considered the inappropriate question.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAl3ehUkMbYO
"I don't see why you get1056Please respect copyright.PENANAn2aL6ihchd
to ask that," said Collins. "They went out to have fun and find a 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAQ13q7jifWF
source of inspiration for their song. And why not at Caribbean Bay? I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANACZLp3ANCR9
know Sam and Ji Yong were supposed to be here for the interview that 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAwOebXH11Eg
day, but apparently, you all came at the last minute when they had 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAK2FAMfaLvJ
already made plans to go out."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAUh68QpxE3z
I didn't know whether to1056Please respect copyright.PENANAl0hmnj45jr
be impressed that Collins is such a good liar, or I should hug him at 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAbr84TpDc8e
the end of the interview for saving our necks. That was such a close 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA2n1ghtcHNw
call.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAAB8Z1WwF9o
"I think time is already up," said Yang Hyun-suk. "So, if you would kindly excuse us, we have other schedules to attend to."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAqaOrpGN532
No reporter asked any 1056Please respect copyright.PENANARcKQYirxEU
further questions, that meant all of this was over. Finally! I just 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAfI4dVzxmgN
wanted to get out of here and breathe. I needed the air because things 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAY1PQe5tOWX
were starting to get a little intense in here.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAemlLQziHKa
When we all got up from 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAPc7yIrRJDg
our chairs to leave, I was backing away from my chair and the back of my1056Please respect copyright.PENANA5uF1QYySu1
shoe got caught with one of the cable cords on the floor. Before I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA0X61Z2v6hk
realised it, I tripped and was falling backwards. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANASuu5WqYvbT
I almost screamed but before I could even reach the floor, G-Dragon caught me just in time. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA7rsQqC0cbx
The camera lights in 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAivoTW76F6M
front of us flashed like crazy because of the scene. And I couldn't help1056Please respect copyright.PENANATMUrke45AF
but feel that all this just made things a whole lot worse.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAxpG89QlZfp
G-Dragon and I were so 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAGhaAIW5qSr
close and I couldn't help but blush when I looked up at him and he was 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA4JfKdVaEEx
staring down at me. I knew that he was still angry at me, but I wanted 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAlab3kOt611
to forget about that and I hoped he would too. We could both carry on 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAcvT620dRWF
with our lives as if all that never happened.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAKP0sQBPI5w
He quickly helped me to 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAxy7WkY7Dqq
straighten up as the camera lights continued to flash before us. I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANApO1sXt0Npv
stared at G-Dragon and I realised that I was still blushing. I took a 1056Please respect copyright.PENANATvscfMxcoZ
strand of my hair behind my ear and cleared my throat.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAatfeqDkN0j
"Um, thanks, GD," I said to him.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAKDMY4hs9yv
"You should be a little more careful next time," he replied.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAVCl3ayOzFq
I couldn't tell if he 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAINiGSEKbVY
said that because they were reporters around, or he really did care 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAVIvHI9I8JW
despite being mad at me. That, I'll never know.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAPcWP7lovmK
The four of us walked 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAuo2r8zgdq3
out of the conference room and I couldn't help but realise that I had 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA4LbMDabonw
another challenge ahead now. And that was the song.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA3XuXuWBm5N
***1056Please respect copyright.PENANAFC3Slcwc8q
"Sam, you were just awesome! Come here, you!" Zoey exclaimed as she ran towards me and pulled me into a tight hug.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAB6ggByRxaX
G-Dragon and I had just walked out of the conference room and Zoey appeared out of no where.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAXlAiU46py7
"I thought you weren't supposed to be here," I said to Zoey, still embraced in her arms.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAkD3tkDkPsB
"Well, ya," said Zoey as1056Please respect copyright.PENANAAkksp9wlFi
she pulled away from me. "I was watching the interview with the others 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAGwsml3YhHM
upstairs and when I saw how you defended me in front of those reporters,1056Please respect copyright.PENANAqAv701dwGD
I decided to come down here."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAcEtCp60Zyp
"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."1056Please respect copyright.PENANA7qQ7uVvJMV
"Zoey, what are you doing here?" came Collins' voice behind me. Yikes! Zoey was in for it now.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAYrqk8EkDWg
"I came for my best friend," said Zoey. "Is that bad?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAkgp9P08vvu
"At the moment, yes," 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAhLA3HrFDwR
said Collins. "Not when everyone now knows that it's all your fault that1056Please respect copyright.PENANAAagYLBXQ7o
you released the video and made everyone have high hopes about Sam and 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAPubkZcF25l
G-Dragon's relationship. It was best to keep you out of plain site of 1056Please respect copyright.PENANArQIx5vgRkn
the reporters to keep them from asking any more questions."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAbP4GCE0Gib
"Come on, Collins," said1056Please respect copyright.PENANAmu2EDHl9Uh
Zoey, shaking her head at her manager. "Don't you know up to now that 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAEu8qAFKj6x
whatever Sam says to the media everyone will listen and believe her? No 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA7Jl1oGCaI2
one is going to be mad at me for long if not at all. You'll see."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAFWMHsQZbB8
"I don't get it," I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAnskWjweiot
said, with a confused look on my face. "Why do you say no one is going 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAKaPelFCBnf
to be mad at you because of what I said?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAu15cLsoJm5
"You told the media that1056Please respect copyright.PENANAiIeYlnssn1
even though I made the video, it was partly not all my fault. If you 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAVZmuRjhx7v
want, Collins, you and I can bet on it. Everyone listens to Sam. She's 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAd3bVJ8PmKr
like some high-rank public figure. If she were to run for president, she1056Please respect copyright.PENANALTEcEaoAbf
would be instated the very same day."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAQrBeY3D46K
Yang Hyun-suk, Lee, 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA21R7KIz7Tc
G-Dragon and I laughed at Zoey's joke, except Collins. I knew he was 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAJcNPyej3Lj
pissed with what Zoey had said, but I had to admit, that was something 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAdnlvnolyas
even an angry person would laugh about.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAZnbEPoKQcL
Speaking about angry 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAr3hhThjzNe
people, I turned over to G-Dragon who was still laughing. It felt good 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAmyDC4tgbVD
to see him laugh and I smiled. But very soon, he will be back to the way1056Please respect copyright.PENANAvvoGKm1TGL
he was. Just the thought of that made me swell up with sadness that I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA0R3tNWvrqw
even had to face the other way so that no one would notice it all over 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA9civhAkK05
my face.1056Please respect copyright.PENANABo7m9iNrFv
"Zoey is one person you 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAeULLqyaGff
should never throw away in your life, Collins," said Yang Hyun-suk, 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAtkpXWFeHeL
holding Collins' shoulder with a bit of laughter on his face. "She's 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAqDIWybV4o6
just hilarious."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAmRI45k26dm
"Ya, she's one of a kind," said G-Dragon.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAP8Zvhbyy9h
"Ah, and how could I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAIlrkh7GmM4
forget about my lovely G-Dragon," said Zoey, as she came to stand beside1056Please respect copyright.PENANARzjfsQmzic
G-Dragon and hooked her hand around his elbow. "You looked awesome 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAMjQuSjxuAu
today. And handsome too."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAoBEdhksgC0
"Wow, looks like Sam was right," said Yang Hyun-suk. "You do admire G-Dragon."1056Please respect copyright.PENANA33p002T9n4
"Ya, no one knows me better than Sam," said Zoey with a grin. "If it were possible, I would gladly have dated G-Dragon."1056Please respect copyright.PENANALsHWgFBBij
"Don't even think about it," said Collins, pointing a finger at Zoey.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAndCL0uG5pD
"I know. 'We're here 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAFpnPACITpF
just to collaborate with BigBang, yadda, yadda, that means no dating 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAC8I0KH5IvK
anyone of them.' I still remember that rule," said Zoey rolling her 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA46x0bSksYW
eyes.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAqhy6e2UjPr
"Sometimes I wish I could kill you," said Collins, shaking his head.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAVRiL5dTNIm
"But you can't, because you love me just as I love you, Collins," said Zoey, with a huge grin on her face.1056Please respect copyright.PENANATs8GjMANpi
"Hilarious," said Yang 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAfxiEdIRjXw
Hyun-suk. "We better get going. You three have to get that song ready, 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAp9iofnvfp1
while we, have other things to attend to."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAxUJObfC8Vv
Oh, the song. For a 1056Please respect copyright.PENANApa9Npo4jGm
moment, I never wanted Yang Hyun-suk or anyone else to mention it. I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAnZVk8i25sb
felt my heart beat faster and I felt like judgement day had finally 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA82iIIyEO58
come.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAq8Rp4VR2f0
We all found ourselves 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAgp5VdZfbl5
in the elevator and I was quiet the whole way. The two managers were 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAP4cNErIzNE
busy talking about something important, while Lee, G-Dragon and Zoey 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAi5EAgilKEM
were talking about the interview.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA5qoeECTEcK
When the elevator 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA3xTHOwwsD9
stopped, Zoey, G-Dragon and I got out and we dropped off on the floor to1056Please respect copyright.PENANAen5L2Fxm90
the recording studios. Our managers and Lee continued on their way 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAbS1mRtiyOi
upwards in the elevator probably heading for Yang Hyun-suk's office.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAEyeqVzhdyP
While the three of us 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAzWJRotKaKX
walked along the hallway, heading for one of the rooms, I couldn't help 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA8Dks5jZfU9
but fall behind G-Dragon and Zoey as the two walked ahead of me 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAZc5ktmUJXI
alongside each other. The two were so deep in their own little 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA5d6YzOdAGf
conversation, I didn't feel like listening or joining them. At that 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAQkrHPdpDAH
point, I felt like I didn't matter.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAAJVhElAhjF
We found ourselves in one of the recording studio rooms and we found all our group members waiting for us.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAQwstUOCgtf
"You're back!" Christine1056Please respect copyright.PENANAZOmQcb7opw
ran towards us, coming straight for me and pulling me into a hug. "You 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAuSuJsCjhg3
were so brave standing up for Zoey like that."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAfK6EFJmyUR
"You know I don't like interviews," I said, trying to put up a smile. "I was actually scared."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAgeUA2bV6nE
"You didn't seem that way," said Taeyang. "You looked very calm as though you knew what you were doing."1056Please respect copyright.PENANApAvx0jKuUp
"And you also looked very pretty," said TOP, giving me a wink.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAvEDEznJR3V
"Um, th-thanks," I said while my cheeks blushed after Christine had pulled away from me.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAuTpqsglhOv
"Ya, you're looking 1056Please respect copyright.PENANADXSEqxkkqP
prettier even now," said Seungri, staring at me with dreamy eyes. "I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAVuytmgTKWy
would've come down there in the conference room and kissed you in front 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA0qqJY7tZI7
of the whole world."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAPNhkc1vQYq
Daesung who stood beside1056Please respect copyright.PENANAT8hal7Rwi9
him slapped him on the shoulder. Seungri whined in pain while he held 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAFAfeI4JYlj
his shoulder and stared at Daesung.1056Please respect copyright.PENANANqmVhWQjJL
"What?" Seungri asked. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAhzfPajG31x
"You only want to cause trouble, do you? You should learn to respect Sam, you know," said Daesung.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAHCmXHdovIX
I couldn't help but get the feeling that Daesung was a little jealous. I couldn't help but smile to myself.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAN3DWwR1mks
"Hello! Isn't anyone going to talk about the little scene that happened at the end of the interview?" Daniel asked.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAv5Cn5t7DCL
"Oh, the part where 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA0esh2gXKkU
G-Dragon saves Sam from falling?" Zoey asked. "If you're worried that 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAG0LRPrz5PU
people would find that romantic, I highly doubt it."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAgt07ZlcmvH
Highly doubt it? If 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAGFFoYEpL4K
Daniel was thinking the same way I had earlier, people would start to 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAPICeXzhHzJ
make up a love story that barely even existed.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAalMPbU1A45
"Well, fans do like to 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAC64br3VFPR
make out a love story out of small things," said Taeyang, scratching his1056Please respect copyright.PENANAP0U03d78si
head. "I wouldn't be surprised if that happens."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAaesoCRq9uV
Oh, no. Looked like 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAHgqGQOUEBH
Taeyang was also on this one too. I wished for someone to change the 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA8o9EFZ3ZeK
subject. This was starting to feel awkward, especially with G-Dragon 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA3W4uhdeZgm
standing right in front of me.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA6aLoi68zrf
I stared at G-Dragon and1056Please respect copyright.PENANAyuJIhexRQs
I could tell by the look on his face that he didn't want to hear a 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAyOY0exABx2
single word concerning love stories. We had other serious things to 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAOrnXORb4WL
think about.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAly8ZXvxRwl
"Can we drop that for 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA0suZv5qZMQ
now and focus on the song instead?" G-Dragon suggested. "We don't have 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAUsmyXJZMP3
much time and we need to work on it right away."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAUfoPx9MmyR
"GD's right," I said. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANABviND9o7ji
"We all saw the reporter ask on how much progress we've made and Collins1056Please respect copyright.PENANAkY97TO8IZq
made an effort to cover for us. So, for the sake of our managers, let's1056Please respect copyright.PENANAff6iz6ue3h
get to work."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAl78yJEXJEV
"But we have to vote again, remember?" TOP reminded us. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA7Um4O5tlyI
Everyone fell silent and1056Please respect copyright.PENANAaqcOmWdYsp
the room felt awkward. It was like the ghost of yesterday still haunted1056Please respect copyright.PENANAp3IoTA2IZ1
us even now. Again, I still felt like it was all my fault.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAuWD8Njd42s
"Well, we all agreed yesterday to vote again," said G-Dragon. "So let's get settled and get this over with."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAobakfZ1rbb
When everyone went to 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA9oMR0YAkLo
settle down on the black leather seats, I stood on the same spot, deep 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAwSYOEth3BZ
in thought. Was all of this worth it? The last thing I wanted was for 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAsQzihvRswn
all of us to be divided because of my stupid suggestion. Maybe I was 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAgOruRTAG9P
wrong this whole time and I shouldn't have done all of this in the first1056Please respect copyright.PENANAzlgh6CMTnH
place.1056Please respect copyright.PENANANy6d4gSctC
"Hey, Sam are you alright?" TOP asked. "You seem troubled."1056Please respect copyright.PENANA35O7JoACgz
I came back to reality and I saw everyone staring at me with worried looks on their faces, except G-Dragon.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA74P6oHgjbZ
"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?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANActwXlbJUNF
I still didn't say a 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA6p9s8MZ7xc
word as I played around with my fingers. I took in a deep breath and 1056Please respect copyright.PENANASMm5cRhvUl
breathed out with my eyes closed, clenching my hands into fists. When I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANABkoFDAHGBN
opened my eyes, I looked on at the others and said:1056Please respect copyright.PENANA3HXpLqlthN
"This voting thing is 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA0OGPFqfLAV
pointless. I take back what I said yesterday. It's for the best if 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA3XiWyhY6QK
G-Dragon and I work on the lyrics for the song instead."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAGMHSttYLQg
Again, the room fell 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAxdQpC02rXc
into an awkward silence. Everyone's eyes were on me and they looked 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAPsl9YmNtzc
surprised, except for G-Dragon. I couldn't tell whether he was smirking 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAgWSdHmTwKU
or he decided to play stoic for a change.1056Please respect copyright.PENANApd5X93accJ
"Wait, what?" Daniel asked. "Why?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANALxymX6Tx8J
"Because, Daniel, 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAQ8kPMiB0oc
nothing is going to change," I said, looking at my brother. "The same 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAVRjh16rLxp
thing will happen even today when we vote. It will end up in a tie 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAbdDYDWWVAu
again. So, what's the point? I bet a lot of you have thought of it the 1056Please respect copyright.PENANASPYnMUQ6Jh
same way, haven't you?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAwTcbSHusEx
No one said a word as they all looked at each other, apart from G-Dragon, who still had his eyes on me.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAJhtLkELPKN
"I think it's best this 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAPbjfdiFUyP
way," I said, grabbing everyone's attention again. "We're going nowhere 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAuVmQXAYOvI
like this and I should have realised it sooner."1056Please respect copyright.PENANA7G74uejQj5
"Well, it's about time you came to your senses," said G-Dragon.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAWSpWXs9fTa
I felt like I had been given a slap on the face. And OUCH! It hurt like hell. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA7updjR75Vm
"That's a little harsh, don't you think?" I asked.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAPPTZRwSP6I
"Well, it's true, isn't it?" G-Dragon asked, with his eyebrows raised.1056Please respect copyright.PENANANY3LYYGNPM
"Well, at least I'm bold enough to even admit that I was wrong."1056Please respect copyright.PENANA5lcFLpPyMK
"And you want me to give you credit for that, Samantha?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAcjzlVvZmhC
Samantha? Really? He 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAHi9OAAh0aT
called me by my full name. Okay, it was clear he was still mad, but he 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAVEpo97RQBL
shouldn't be expressing his anger in front of everyone else like that. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAdOo37h7Vxm
He should be doing it to me and me alone. I was ready for what's to 1056Please respect copyright.PENANACPY1k6osSI
come, but not with our group members around.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAQNPrH9iVLS
"I don't think we should argue here," I said. "Why don't we go some place else and talk?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAq0mEubeccq
"And why should we?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAW7dkUIVZEZ
"It's not right and you know it. If you want to get personal with me, at least do it with no one around."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAkZmzKtx10u
"Oh, and now you're trying to play the good girl trying not to hurt anyone else?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANA88Fbhz6CzM
"That's what I'm meant to do, GD. This isn't right."1056Please respect copyright.PENANArNXMwzL1wI
"Sorry, Sam, but I'm 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAR2uU4h3A5r
rather comfortable here," G-Dragon leaned back on the chair with his 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAT4CSIkcUt6
hands behind his head and crossing his leg above the other.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA7Vf90JBcia
I shook my head in 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAMqx0h1nRNQ
disbelief. G-Dragon was totally unbelievable. Right now, I wasn't sure 1056Please respect copyright.PENANARv3d5S0a6g
whether to hate him or just feel sorry for him.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA02ZY6d4qeX
"Fine, then we'll stay here then," I said.1056Please respect copyright.PENANALwfo4l3xhg
"That's more like it," said G-Dragon, with a smirk on his face. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAVWbiBxJfN7
"You're so stubborn," I rolled my eyes at him.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAAU79opZM3Y
"Ya, well, I was born this way."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAqwMtvCxtfr
"Can we please start working on the song now?" I asked. "It seems like we don't have much time left."1056Please respect copyright.PENANA3LCuIW1jeO
"Okay, let's start."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAcAYTk5bcDK
"Umm, sorry to interfere1056Please respect copyright.PENANAoiV7buvsCm
in all of this, but are you serious right now?" Zoey asked, looking 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAhv1e9M5ABY
surprised and confused at the same time.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAbMEGd32wcB
"What's wrong?" G-Dragon asked, shrugging his shoulders.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA0CLuIwl1qT
"I don't know if you are1056Please respect copyright.PENANAvMmC316ieO
seeing this, but you two look like you're about to tear each other's 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAWWcreTucuY
throats out. Doesn't that bother you? And you want to work on the song 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAUSplwP4UIj
together? Today?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAhWyi0Lea5v
Zoey was right. What was happening now looked more like the beginning of World War III, if not the end of the world.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAn4YlHkEafA
"I'm sorry, Zoey," I said. "But do we have a choice?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANA5biJnyT7V1
"Well, I have one. Why 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAqbXOhIH6oT
don't you two take a break from each other? You're scaring me and 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAhbrcZKsAEX
probably the whole lot of us too. Why don't you two cool down and work 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA89xcFf7QRB
on the song tomorrow?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAqETh9BbKQx
"Zoey's right," said Taeyang. "You two need to chill out. You both seem angry at each other."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAurYl501hzz
"I'm not the angry one, he is," I said, pointing my finger at G-Dragon. "I'm just being reasonable!"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAwa571FPosf
"I know, Sam. You've 1056Please respect copyright.PENANATIx6aUIQ5g
both agreed to work on the song together, but you can't go on like this.1056Please respect copyright.PENANATx2dFTov4Q
Who knows what may happen if we leave you two alone."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAt7Cy19Om0v
"Tae is right," said Mike. "I don't want to go back home with your beheaded dead body. Mum will kill us."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAtbDrycLDsN
"Okay, fine," I said, rubbing my temples and taking a deep breath. "You're right. Even I can't work like this."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAYVKlayDEOM
I tried to calm myself 1056Please respect copyright.PENANArd9H4yN85p
down, trying to clear my head. I let my anger get the better of me. In 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA9G7Vgixz8T
fact, I couldn't tell if all this was anger or I was just annoyed 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAjZZAQ0Wui8
because G-Dragon was acting bigheaded.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAY0cmSXxrce
"Looks like we will work1056Please respect copyright.PENANAWuAiIdZ5P7
on it tomorrow then," said G-Dragon as he slowly got up from his seat. 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAdKMfdRG2jC
And with his hands in the pockets of his jeans, he slowly walked towards1056Please respect copyright.PENANAnctwTHG9lb
me.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAh7qAD6f3wh
The last thing I wanted 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAqLqf4pskPY
was a face to face confrontation with him because if he was going to do 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAanSWbMk1sp
or say something funny, I didn't know what I was going to do. But no. I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAWk1qCNZeDX
wasn't going to let my anger get the better of me again. I didn't want 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAFaPCGNcz5H
to be angry at him. If there was anyone to be angry at, it was myself.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAlAsRnIwdNu
G-Dragon came close and 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAtK0fotEsjZ
he stared at me with his intimidating eyes. At first, those eyes used to1056Please respect copyright.PENANAIhlUn0QZja
make me melt like jelly, but now, I couldn't tell where that feeling 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAL3kBNmY2Pc
went. Maybe it's because those eyes weren't there to intimidate but they1056Please respect copyright.PENANA1p6DyDFnVp
were full of anger too.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAUWaIcATJHT
He stopped a few inches 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAWmdmabQJ3Q
away from me and I didn't back away. Earlier on, I would. But this time,1056Please respect copyright.PENANA0sXpPFfTto
I wasn't afraid anymore. I was tired of being scared.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAD8KKAEpCy4
"We'll meet tomorrow soon after practise, capish?" G-Dragon asked.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAJeijUOpBb9
"Capish," I replied, without any hint of emotion.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAz426P6ZpYj
"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?"1056Please respect copyright.PENANAfP4kKSMufJ
"No, we don't."1056Please respect copyright.PENANA8F5V3qYMDa
"That's my little 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAS0QPxxzQVB
kitty." G-Dragon smiled at me and walked away, our shoulders brushing 1056Please respect copyright.PENANARKeCxk1fQ5
each other, and he went out through the door.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAXMcmfWlK11
"Well, that was close," said TOP. "For a second, I thought this whole place was about to blow up."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAU16QtSylbf
"Ya, I thought I was going to watch a Mortal Kombart fight," said Mike.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAg7Aj40N1aP
"Seriously? You're 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAsoE3BVCygD
bringing Mortal Kombart into this?" I asked Mike with my eyebrow raised.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAxHvCimo1x7
Somehow, I wanted to laugh at the joke, but I couldn't.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAMUYhu5eYxE
"Come to think of it," 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAu42qIREzYR
said Zoey, staring at Mike. "You're right. Remind me of those two 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAO4tj9UmVCb
characters that hate each other so much."1056Please respect copyright.PENANA8BfQnhUOUT
"Scorpion and Subzero," said Daniel.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAfYA7SDZ4Mm
"So, in this case, Scorpion is G-Dragon," said Seungri, who seemed to be enjoying himself with this.1056Please respect copyright.PENANACnglDfeLb2
"Ya, it suits him since Scorpion and dragon kind of go together because of fire," said Daesung.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAJgHL2RqdkW
"Guys, are you seriously listening to yourselves right now?" I asked.1056Please respect copyright.PENANArfnMs5RaKM
But no one answered me as they continued their Mortal Kombart fantasy.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAoEKBpg1Mvd
"And Sam is Subzero," said Daniel.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA1yseDIlsnB
"Ya, because she is all cool and chilled like ice and doesn't crack under pressure," said TOP.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAQJGrZSPW6L
"True, but also because Subzero is her favourite Mortal Kombart character," said Christine.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAmUcPgsS1XJ
"Oh, ya, I forgot about that," said Mike.1056Please respect copyright.PENANATh66ByF6Tn
This was getting ridiculous and I shook my head in disbelief.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAGAW10JzIs8
"So this whole thing is like a fire and ice relationship?" Taeyang asked.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAjEGIit51gP
Oh great! Not Taeyang too! The argument G-Dragon and I had created a story in these guy's heads.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA2q6DREIhVa
"Ya, I'm already 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAAyVjmGNTq5
imagining it," said Zoey, staring off into a distance, obviously in her 1056Please respect copyright.PENANACXpxrfaD9T
imagination. "G-Dragon and Sam, like Scorpion and Subzero."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAjyeJBe2M3d
"Ya, I can imagine it too," said Mike, also staring off into a distance.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAf6r4pxhCnB
"Sam looks so hot in her Subzero outfit," said Seungri, also deep in thought and biting his lower lip.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAveLguBgcRD
"So hot," said TOP, nodding his head absent mindley.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAR4jSkJlfoV
"So does GD in Scorpion's outfit," said Zoey.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAxQuskpFJlX
"Ya, their relationship is now like fire and ice," said Daesung. "Let's just see who wins."1056Please respect copyright.PENANAiAisFZiTd6
As I watched the others 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA6PRBVPnpS0
share out their silly ideas of how the fight would turn out, I couldn't 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAEViV1hgrs5
help but realise that they were right. Right now, GD and I weren't okay 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAC5pwby6b0I
at all. To the outside world, we were friends, but to ourselves and our 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAHVb1bNSjWR
closet friends, we weren't. One moment we were smiling at each other but1056Please respect copyright.PENANAt8kzLNcq6p
soon afterwards we were fighting again.1056Please respect copyright.PENANArtpTI6PbCB
I didn't know how all 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAk8Bhu8u2CJ
this was going to end, but if G-Dragon and I didn't resolve our issue 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAPLO4bc3Q4c
soon, we might not just hurt each other but also the people around us, 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA91OeYo9iZd
especially our group members. And I wasn't going to let that happen.1056Please respect copyright.PENANA6yum0yew5O
If that was the case, I 1056Please respect copyright.PENANA4ylpCcq30K
had to win this no matter what. I didn't care if I was going to end up 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAlvSXAfF2QC
getting burnt. I created this mess and I had to fix it no matter the 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAokoJPpGzUU
cost. Even if it meant I had to play along like the others. That 1056Please respect copyright.PENANAaONw5WwvmC
G-Dragon is Scorpion and I am Subzero.1056Please respect copyright.PENANAxGunKcuoUC
That he is fire and I am ice.
