I was jolted awake by 819Please respect copyright.PENANAbsAmOufPP8
the sound of the alarm. With my hand, I lazily stretched out for the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAe52pPnMVym
alarm clock on the lamp stand beside my bed. When I managed to turn it 819Please respect copyright.PENANAflJuGCoiGO
off and closed my eyes just to get a few minutes of sleep, I felt 819Please respect copyright.PENANALLfi8Wye9A
someone jump on top of me. It happened so suddenly that I thought I was 819Please respect copyright.PENANAtzyyag5ynu
being attacked. My eyes flew open by the sudden surprise and the weight 819Please respect copyright.PENANAH9WedzjP8k
of the person on me.819Please respect copyright.PENANA0GN0WMaCRx
"Wakey, wakey, my little819Please respect copyright.PENANAhnzf7MTL4Z
kitty!" Zoey shook me as she was still on top of me. She soon stood up 819Please respect copyright.PENANA5ifXhANdnX
on the bed and started to jump up and down in her pink pyjamas. I was 819Please respect copyright.PENANAX52qwgPI6L
bouncing along with the mattress and I quickly sat up. 819Please respect copyright.PENANAN0YZvkpGdr
"May you please stop jumping like a three year old!" I scolded at her, as I tried to rub off the sleep in my eyes.819Please respect copyright.PENANAwigLLdNYyg
"Sorry, but your alarm 819Please respect copyright.PENANAgYvXFbz5cb
rang and I wanted to wake you up," said Zoey as she stopped bouncing on 819Please respect copyright.PENANAdEsgL7Y6US
the bed. "We have a big day today!"819Please respect copyright.PENANAhKTYZkRfw3
"Couldn't you at least 819Please respect copyright.PENANAwz8tLWeOV0
give me a few minutes of sleep?" I asked, almost moaning. "I still need 819Please respect copyright.PENANAyxCNPzboXC
some. Besides, you're never up when the alarm rings and you wake up 819Please respect copyright.PENANAq7dbqqaVwy
thirty minutes afterwards. What's up with you today?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAOfgpepsPYv
"Ah, dah! We have a fan signing event today," said Zoey as she continued to look down on me while rolling her eyes.819Please respect copyright.PENANAQT3yBYLYrU
"Oh, I forgot." I said, putting up a smile.819Please respect copyright.PENANAdoEvuRbO8p
"You should really learn to stop being sarcastic," said Zoey, as she folded her arms.819Please respect copyright.PENANA4a377gtaws
"What can I do? It's a part of me," I said with a smirk.819Please respect copyright.PENANA55dSdjk0tU
"Okay, now get up. Your 819Please respect copyright.PENANAC5z3fJZoHJ
sarcasm isn't the issue. We need to go get ready." Zoey jumped off the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAf2sbkhOVlM
bed to the floor and she turned to face me, pulling away my bed covers. 819Please respect copyright.PENANA25xdlFwVER
It was clearly a sign that she wanted me up and I did so anyway. I 819Please respect copyright.PENANAbZQdWYI5UZ
didn't want to have a pillow fight with her early in the morning.819Please respect copyright.PENANArppNCywr0F
"You can go on ahead and use the shower," said Zoey. "We need to be quick, you know?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAZfdYjRNPU2
"We don't even know at what time the event is going to start and you're making such a big deal of it," I said, folding my arms.819Please respect copyright.PENANA3mFobvCA3c
"Sometimes you're so 819Please respect copyright.PENANAnjMGQXAFwH
behind in life I wonder if you ever have a phone." Zoey rolled her eyes 819Please respect copyright.PENANAUaHJFYk6Do
at me and she went over to her bed to get her phone.819Please respect copyright.PENANAdTQCgIhirt
"The fan signing event 819Please respect copyright.PENANAaGSNWwcDh5
just came up at the last minute but they made sure they posted the 819Please respect copyright.PENANA4r52VSNxDH
information about the event and when it's going to take place on 819Please respect copyright.PENANA721S6r9Jnq
Facebook and Twitter," said Zoey, as she scrolled down her phone. When 819Please respect copyright.PENANAeM5Pm0aIrW
she found what she was looking for, she gave her phone to me.819Please respect copyright.PENANA5uU3G8OxNZ
I took her phone and I 819Please respect copyright.PENANAe0wsHO7w2L
felt like slapping myself. The fan signing event was advertised on 819Please respect copyright.PENANAAHj9fVuWk6
Facebook just like Zoey had told me. I haven't been checking up on 819Please respect copyright.PENANAr6nZCyjcDR
what's going on online these past two days because I needed some alone 819Please respect copyright.PENANAem5JNfCuXI
time and not read critics about me. I really didn't care what people 819Please respect copyright.PENANAncfImTVCbQ
said out there. It's just that being famous was kind of tough and that 819Please respect copyright.PENANAVgV8Ah5bUH
shouldn't change who I was. I was one person who didn't like all the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAwzrpU5uaZh
attention as you already know. I draw in energy by being alone and being819Please respect copyright.PENANA2SvGgDIiTV
stuck in my own little world. 819Please respect copyright.PENANAuyOhhDKhbZ
"It says here that the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAjxqvHUQ0DR
event will start an hour before noon," I said as I looked up from Zoey's819Please respect copyright.PENANAU2tqV2xFGr
phone. "And this is just seven in the morning. Again, I'm actually 819Please respect copyright.PENANAZB0gfCbRIT
shocked you're up this early."819Please respect copyright.PENANA8ASSEyTQFT
"Aren't you that excited819Please respect copyright.PENANAxLudKVU52Q
to meet your Korean fans up close?" Zoey asked as she held my shoulders819Please respect copyright.PENANARsFyIXqn19
and shook me. "And also, I can't wait for our surprise. I wonder what 819Please respect copyright.PENANAgoenrRN77V
it could be."819Please respect copyright.PENANAqdr9jPEI0q
"I'm happy about meeting our fans, but I'm scared about the surprise."819Please respect copyright.PENANACw0lY4Enuz
"Since when has a surprise ever been scary?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAPpPlh7tQJ3
"Ever since I got weird 819Please respect copyright.PENANAFsSst8tZ1p
vibes about it when our managers told us. They should have kept it a 819Please respect copyright.PENANAjpi4EU5oI2
secret instead of telling us that there would be a surprise."819Please respect copyright.PENANAUSPcfIzNFH
"I think you're being paranoid for no good reason."819Please respect copyright.PENANAlQ1XxL6xuz
"Tell me when my intuition has ever been wrong, Zoey?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAh1KpcMRP9g
Zoey looked up at the 819Please respect copyright.PENANATqo8mZ6mvD
ceiling and furrowed her eyebrows deep in thought. I couldn't help but 819Please respect copyright.PENANAU84moMrCtY
smile at her expression. These were the times when I enjoyed being 819Please respect copyright.PENANAFFxJMZaeeo
right.819Please respect copyright.PENANAi3uIFarcn1
"Okay, I give up," said 819Please respect copyright.PENANASYtEzdVhnj
Zoey raising her hands in defeat. "You win, as always. But what makes 819Please respect copyright.PENANAuCblJQqTXH
you think there would be something weird about our surprise?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAaieEtyj1U4
"I don't know," I said as I sat down on my bed. "Maybe it's because I feel it has something to do with me." 819Please respect copyright.PENANAjx3E790t98
"Mmmm," Zoey tapped her 819Please respect copyright.PENANAYg60RVRfTE
chin as she paced up and down in front of me. "Your birthday is coming 819Please respect copyright.PENANAXMrdFLaWtc
up in September, so that's like four months away and I don't think it's 819Please respect copyright.PENANAX7X1VJd9yK
anyway related to that."819Please respect copyright.PENANAU4hjKpDCVF
"Seriously? You're counting in my birthday?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAf236BdIrgz
"I'm counting all the odds of a surprise, Sam."819Please respect copyright.PENANAAXUZWXuoIA
I couldn't help but 819Please respect copyright.PENANAINc1RIQHVM
sigh. I knew Zoey was my best friend and the last thing I wanted was to 819Please respect copyright.PENANANRSgVQZvZj
blurt out to her that she was acting dumb. She usually does, but that 819Please respect copyright.PENANALUPjTqVekd
didn't mean she could come up with good ideas too.819Please respect copyright.PENANAQWgMeY0hNB
"Well, it can't be a surprise birthday gift in advance," I said. "Think of something else."819Please respect copyright.PENANAnvYOCtQ2rT
"You're right," Zoey kept on pacing. "What could it be?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAZPq6y0kIOz
A few minutes later, 819Please respect copyright.PENANAO1XBUSwTz9
there was a knock at the door and I went to open it while Zoey continued819Please respect copyright.PENANAF1m3yzQY6g
to pace back and forth. I opened the door and I found Christine also in819Please respect copyright.PENANAO9FrysrLlI
her pyjamas with her sleeping gown on. Looked like she just got out of 819Please respect copyright.PENANAFk7WtqlxyY
bed and she still had sleep in her eyes just like I had moments earlier.819Please respect copyright.PENANAoXqVSvbJKl
"Hey, morning," said Christine as she found herself in our room. "What's up with Zoey?" She asked as she noticed Zoey pacing.819Please respect copyright.PENANAUxSPFDfdrH
"Trying to solve my paranoia," I answered bluntly as I came to stand close to Christine.819Please respect copyright.PENANA8ypTyoqTCI
"Paranoia? What paranoia?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAQK2r35LFpK
"I told her that I didn't feel right about our surprise. She thinks I'm being paranoid."819Please respect copyright.PENANADu9GNcjyFa
"Maybe you're," said Christine as she yawned.819Please respect copyright.PENANAtPxf7pBAoW
"Ya, right. Where is Lee?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAoAZxIRieyT
"She left really early today. I woke up and she wasn't in the room."819Please respect copyright.PENANApM2JAoU6Fh
"Looks like they are getting ready for the event. We also have to start getting ready too."819Please respect copyright.PENANAEd1uvVh44o
"Ya, sure. Come on, 819Please respect copyright.PENANAAhF6YHLTk8
Zoey," Christine called out to her. "Stop trying to find out what the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAc5HWbVEkh2
surprise could be and get ready. It's best if we see it ourselves."819Please respect copyright.PENANAS7t2IsjkPF
"Well, I just find it 819Please respect copyright.PENANA9CHw5QtC6w
weird," said Zoey as she stopped pacing and looked at Christine and I. 819Please respect copyright.PENANA1QGItTaVDG
"Why would they announce that there would be a surprise if it was best 819Please respect copyright.PENANALy3RL9lbHF
if they kept it a secret?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAh2Jh0bIT0g
I almost slapped myself 819Please respect copyright.PENANApuducBzAGk
on the forehead but I dared not to as I continued to stare at Zoey, 819Please respect copyright.PENANA5WekAegyFM
hoping she would not read the expression on my face. Hadn't I suggested 819Please respect copyright.PENANA8SosFBZbfb
that minutes ago?819Please respect copyright.PENANAbLkh7GFgnc
"To make you both paranoid and stupid," Christine answered as she stared at me and then at Zoey.819Please respect copyright.PENANA7neMXambyT
"Hey! I'm not stupid!" Zoey wailed, looking offended.819Please respect copyright.PENANADIN4H6mSZp
"And I'm not paranoid!" I snapped. 819Please respect copyright.PENANA1ksSAkWDgk
"Well, you're acting that way," said Christine.819Please respect copyright.PENANA18mvkEKIaj
"Never mind," I said, rolling my eyes. "Wake up the boys when you go out, will you?" I asked as I turned to address Christine.819Please respect copyright.PENANAqqOqpNoBj0
"Okey dokey," said 819Please respect copyright.PENANA63OTKsbMCG
Christine as she headed for the door. Just as Christine opened the door,819Please respect copyright.PENANAVKE4QDLxUF
Mike and Daniel stood right there ready to knock.819Please respect copyright.PENANAWmiA9Iq8Rm
"Hey, we were just about to knock on the door to wake you guys up," said Mike.819Please respect copyright.PENANAIsjldFOq78
"Is everyone that 819Please respect copyright.PENANAXEQ4Jw5xcM
anxious today apart from me?" I asked. "You guys are never up this early819Please respect copyright.PENANAjCXkGnnSeB
if we aren't going for dance practice."819Please respect copyright.PENANAUhvGlKVab7
"Looks like we are," 819Please respect copyright.PENANAgGHT2QRLoB
said Daniel as he and Mike entered the room. "What's up with you 819Please respect copyright.PENANAo22blcVp6e
anyway?" Daniel asked me. "Why aren't you that excited?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAHJT2IUkl0c
"Because she doesn't like what she feels about the surprise," Zoey blurted out.819Please respect copyright.PENANA15u4WJSiha
"Don't mind me and my 819Please respect copyright.PENANAMHNaLbx41v
intuitions," I said. "Let's all go and prepare ourselves for the event. 819Please respect copyright.PENANAKafZGzQ6tK
I'm really not in the mood to start discussing why I feel this way."819Please respect copyright.PENANAIyeLlIMSWx
"Oh, please tell us, oh,819Please respect copyright.PENANA6nFXH8Y6rB
wise one!" Daniel mocked me as he gave me a playful bow. He looked like819Please respect copyright.PENANAUfQZzVAPa3
a monk bowing to a god in his blue pyjamas and robe. I huffed at him in819Please respect copyright.PENANAbJba84tgDT
annoyance. I always hated it when my brothers referred to me as the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAVT7f2euvAN
"wise one". As much as my gut feeling or I can say my intuition were 819Please respect copyright.PENANAdzU8s5ZrQI
always right, they always called me that and I hated it.819Please respect copyright.PENANAj1MYXEEByu
"Can you guys please, leave the room?" I asked, as I rubbed my forehead trying to control my frustration.819Please respect copyright.PENANAIxkzVYDMIM
"Oh, no! These guys aren't leaving until you tell them what you told me," said Zoey.819Please respect copyright.PENANAQXR1Z3B0cC
This can't be happening. It was early in the morning and we were already discussing something as silly as this.819Please respect copyright.PENANAMUrIE69v5F
"Spill the beans, Sam," Mike insisted. "Tell us what you told Zoey."819Please respect copyright.PENANA7HhhbHZkzD
"It's not important 819Please respect copyright.PENANA6fjOnTGvSm
guys," I said. "If I were you, I would be hitting the showers. And in 819Please respect copyright.PENANA6lkvFTZJqq
fact, that's what I'm going to do right now."819Please respect copyright.PENANAqFVJQBGfc2
I started to walk past 819Please respect copyright.PENANAhx1vWS0ZwT
Christine, Daniel and Mike heading for the bathroom. But before I could 819Please respect copyright.PENANA4jkkW0umgR
even reach the door, Zoey, who I had left standing behind me a few 819Please respect copyright.PENANAhCCgOJXUJV
seconds ago, went diagonal across the room, jumped on her bed and she 819Please respect copyright.PENANAgc3iwO79pe
found herself blocking the entrance of the bathroom. For a moment, I 819Please respect copyright.PENANAdoB19aQfrE
thought she just dashed like The Flash. But I realised that was too good819Please respect copyright.PENANAcfpOCFM96Q
to be true.819Please respect copyright.PENANAayaQKouaFq
"Zoey, get out of the way," I insisted.819Please respect copyright.PENANAkUQhFRNOPz
"Well, look who is all 819Please respect copyright.PENANACDIN3QVD9H
prepared to get ready for the fan signing event," said Zoey as she 819Please respect copyright.PENANAdHzof3BmF3
leaned her head to the side, with her eyes squarely fixed on me. "A 819Please respect copyright.PENANAS9d0dGPwqh
while ago, you weren't even ready to go to the bathroom to get ready. 819Please respect copyright.PENANAEXIM8CFcLS
What's happened now?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAWjYMwkJbLI
"Zoey, come on, this is just ridiculous," I rolled my eyes at her. "We aren't doing this right now."819Please respect copyright.PENANAy76d1COEcC
"Ya, we're," Zoey nodded her head. "Now, tell everyone what you told me about the surprise."819Please respect copyright.PENANA6JKBzGsTNh
"Ya, now I'm more than curious," said Daniel. "What's about the surprise that's got you so paranoid?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAb5nAUNbNjl
"I'm not paranoid," I said. I felt like I was repeating the sentence like the millionth time today and I was frustrated.819Please respect copyright.PENANAXtgTOlHzrx
I turned to face the others and said, "I feel this surprise is related to me."819Please respect copyright.PENANAXKHm9LBIXk
Christine, Mike and Daniel's mouth fell open as they looked at me.819Please respect copyright.PENANAbZ2FdkoUtj
"That's what you're worried about?" Mike asked. "Isn't that a good thing? I would be happy if I were you."819Please respect copyright.PENANATyKiKDoLmC
"I wonder what's wrong 819Please respect copyright.PENANAoF93M766Qo
with you sometimes, Sam," said Christine. "Instead of enjoying the fact 819Please respect copyright.PENANAMSK2FudBpR
that the surprise might be yours, you're acting all weird about it."819Please respect copyright.PENANAuuU9nYzAaU
"You don't understand at all," I said. "I have a feeling that I might not like this surprise."819Please respect copyright.PENANAK9748HshnG
"Forget it," said Zoey, 819Please respect copyright.PENANAcDZqYXKwno
as she stood aside from the door allowing me to pass. "You can go in. 819Please respect copyright.PENANAmGwjArF7DF
And make sure you wash away that negative thought of yours."819Please respect copyright.PENANASHqiumVYYY
"Not gonna happen," I sneered at her as I went into the bathroom and locked the door behind me.819Please respect copyright.PENANAkc0ZBPgIeI
By the time it was 819Please respect copyright.PENANAwGXAtCtRSF
eight, almost everyone had showered and dressed up except for Zoey and 819Please respect copyright.PENANAMH2mn5r0dU
Christine who were taking their time in the bathroom doing each other's 819Please respect copyright.PENANAeTH7wY4oB0
make up. Lee and Collins found Daniel, Mike and I seated in the lounge, 819Please respect copyright.PENANAz1wGuAnqUj
all prepared.819Please respect copyright.PENANAfj1oZW2M4S
"I figured you guys 819Please respect copyright.PENANAe73w7bLq6I
would still be asleep since you weren't going for practice today," said 819Please respect copyright.PENANAtXCi0rEiEM
Collins jokingly as he entered the lounge with Lee behind him.819Please respect copyright.PENANAy9rVOmrTMw
"Today is an exciting day and you expect us to be asleep at this hour?" Mike asked.819Please respect copyright.PENANAnjFXI0GVag
"Not really," answered Collins. "I can see the beauty queens aren't out yet."819Please respect copyright.PENANAnoCBtIqUi8
"I'm right here, you know?" I raised my hand as I looked up from my phone.819Please respect copyright.PENANAgR4P5fXlzA
"You know who I meant. You might be a beauty queen, but you're the sensible one and always on time."819Please respect copyright.PENANAkHYnzU5Dzh
"Careful," said Lee as 819Please respect copyright.PENANA4MOtRWjYIh
she looked behind her. "They will hear you and those beauty queens might819Please respect copyright.PENANAp5UY167MPH
just turn into deadly assassins."819Please respect copyright.PENANAe00LYSzZxt
"As though I've never 819Please respect copyright.PENANAk5KXXDkf5V
felt their wrath before," said Collins with a smirk on his face as he 819Please respect copyright.PENANAJO8LBa2Zcj
turned to Lee. "Anyways, have you all eaten your breakfast yet? We have 819Please respect copyright.PENANAcXXNEqrH4C
to leave this place and head to YG in fifteen minutes."819Please respect copyright.PENANA6Zl1VFjIpz
"They will be up with 819Please respect copyright.PENANA9oig8bqYum
our breakfast soon," I said as I stood up from the comfortable couch. 819Please respect copyright.PENANAJ4cjueSwrL
"I'll check on Zoey and Christine to see if they are ready."819Please respect copyright.PENANAPUyvqYf766
Before I could start 819Please respect copyright.PENANAALCwyAskks
heading for the rooms, Zoey and Christine appeared in the lounge, 819Please respect copyright.PENANAfMZPxroSJ9
looking stunning. Zoey wore a stunning strapless light pink flared 819Please respect copyright.PENANAhXrdC61oAi
summer dress with black heels. Christine also wore a summer dress in 819Please respect copyright.PENANAa2SvfKD0sf
green with matching white and green pumps. And the way they styled their819Please respect copyright.PENANAeEi5tsyS2L
hair, was amazing.819Please respect copyright.PENANAQBc25T1o1D
"Wow! I've to admit," 819Please respect copyright.PENANArfZfFb3ayZ
said Collins as he looked at Zoey and Christine. "You have really out 819Please respect copyright.PENANAc1shyBMxXt
done yourselves today. You look like you're going for an after party or 819Please respect copyright.PENANAiTULTY23aX
something."819Please respect copyright.PENANAyN82OkbaQc
"We dress to kill," said819Please respect copyright.PENANAKfvbL4TZD2
Zoey as she flipped her curled hair and with a bright smile on her 819Please respect copyright.PENANAHKtNOWnXdk
face. She really did look stunning. Any guy would be dropping their 819Please respect copyright.PENANAyZnJk3luUn
mouths when they saw her.819Please respect copyright.PENANAXQt1hWswA1
"Yep, you're totally dressed to kill," I said as I smiled at Zoey.819Please respect copyright.PENANA4NUYEkCzfE
"For reals?" Zoey asked 819Please respect copyright.PENANAQs5ta1rwIZ
as she looked at herself and turned around, her dress twirling as she 819Please respect copyright.PENANA8Y11er2vJM
moved. "Do you really think I look great, Sam?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAUO0csMC50e
"I wouldn't have said all that now, would I?" I asked. "You both look stunning and every guy who sees you will drop dead."819Please respect copyright.PENANA93XUGjNpfI
"You just know how Zoey is," said Christine, "she wants to look perfect for G-Dragon."819Please respect copyright.PENANAfwJPKLQfYc
By the mention of his 819Please respect copyright.PENANA1B2DPDUClS
name, I froze. Memories of what happened yesterday came flooding back. 819Please respect copyright.PENANAu1w3qkjdM6
I've always known Zoey liked G-Dragon. But the fact that he might just 819Please respect copyright.PENANA4P52rNePO5
like me as he drunkenly claimed he had, made me feel guilty.819Please respect copyright.PENANAGTQNxWvtqu
"Thanks for all the lovely comments," said Zoey with a shining smile.819Please respect copyright.PENANA1is1atY5in
"Well, you aren't getting any lovely comments from us," said Daniel, pointing to himself and Mike.819Please respect copyright.PENANAo2JNhTFfhG
"Don't worry," said Zoey, her face soon turned from pretty to dangerous. "I wasn't expecting anything from you anyway."819Please respect copyright.PENANAlq1jPE6PKY
"Ya, whatever," said Mike. "I'm so hungry. Isn't our breakfast up here yet?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAdbm964csI0
I was so glad that Mike 819Please respect copyright.PENANAurWXjpYbAh
had changed the topic. I wasn't ready for another of their silly 819Please respect copyright.PENANAAIMX7s4sxd
arguments. Their kind of argument was one that never ended as quickly as819Please respect copyright.PENANA8F8W5jPcPo
you wanted it to. And at the end of it, no one on either side ever won.819Please respect copyright.PENANA3fYH0ZIw9q
As fun as it was to see Zoey argue with my brothers, now was clearly 819Please respect copyright.PENANAUe9riQFdKN
not the right time to sit and watch the entertainment unfold.819Please respect copyright.PENANApcBlUHs0FG
We had an event to 819Please respect copyright.PENANA3UBKPpj7RM
attend to. Our breakfast came up soon afterwards. Toasted bread with 819Please respect copyright.PENANAg5IkfCTMvD
eggs and juice. As soon as we were done, we headed downstairs. These 819Please respect copyright.PENANA0nFHD2RJyS
past few days, whenever we went out, we never received reporters or 819Please respect copyright.PENANA2rpbfD4b7B
paparazzi at the entrance doors of the hotel. They would usually wait 819Please respect copyright.PENANAeAEZuf1BEH
outside the hotel gates. The last time that happened was on the first 819Please respect copyright.PENANAYfHzb4ED5R
day we came here. But today, we were greeted by them in the lobby. Looks819Please respect copyright.PENANANQC7lnsRjf
like the news of our fan signing event stirred up a frenzy.819Please respect copyright.PENANAPSrQUSnZZl
Bodyguards surrounded us819Please respect copyright.PENANAJciVmPx9k7
as soon as we stepped out of the elevator and the camera lights blinked819Please respect copyright.PENANAIQgbScKdRP
everywhere around us. There was so much commotion in the lobby, walking819Please respect copyright.PENANAVIB0Pyq6iz
around seemed difficult. But lucky for us, there were bodyguards and 819Please respect copyright.PENANAPc74Pmp5IW
they made enough room for us to get out of the place and go outside. How819Please respect copyright.PENANACF8sCvTo7P
I wish I wore sunglasses. The flashing lights from the cameras almost 819Please respect copyright.PENANArNVmXggLPk
blinded me for a moment and I admired Zoey and Christine who were smart 819Please respect copyright.PENANAGrb1roX1Vi
enough to carry theirs and wear them. Bummer!819Please respect copyright.PENANAqtEcg0U3Lz
We soon found ourselves 819Please respect copyright.PENANAY5vqIPSbXs
outside and there were more reporters and paparazzi. Some fans who stood819Please respect copyright.PENANAmgY6YJJMdd
nearby cheered when they saw us pass through the glass doors of the 819Please respect copyright.PENANADHWMdSFzat
hotel. Some waved banners and posters with lovely sweet messages, some 819Please respect copyright.PENANAWVDgr9kWFf
in Korean in which I was able to make a few words out of, though it was a819Please respect copyright.PENANA3hAbj3D0by
huge hustle to read because of all the excited commotion. We soon found819Please respect copyright.PENANAUNq1gilQdr
ourselves in the black Chevrolet SUVs and I felt so relieved to be in 819Please respect copyright.PENANA0G5RfBBmeW
the car at that moment.819Please respect copyright.PENANA3EbRdvWf85
"Wow, looks like we 819Please respect copyright.PENANA9aYrQDmo9y
really stirred up a crowd today, haven't we?" Daniel asked as he looked 819Please respect copyright.PENANA5CJrIueIwL
out the car window where the reporters, paparazzi and the fans 819Please respect copyright.PENANAE48PTfGMIG
surrounded the car.819Please respect copyright.PENANAxK4KRJUZYW
"Looks like we did," I said, as I also looked out the window.819Please respect copyright.PENANAMmOgb74ufN
"Hope everyone is in," said Collins who always sat in the front passenger’s seat and turned behind to look at us.819Please respect copyright.PENANAWqgGBGIj7l
"We all are," answered Lee. "Made a count and all your five piggies are in the car, Collins."819Please respect copyright.PENANAaNSvCn80iv
"Piggies!?" I responded in surprise with the other Toxins at the same time. That reminded me of Angry Birds.819Please respect copyright.PENANArzZJEpFWtV
"Ya," said Collins. "To me, you're piggies."819Please respect copyright.PENANACRIAVzOMP2
"I thought calling us 819Please respect copyright.PENANADdoIHWELs9
monkeys was better," Zoey muttered enough for Collins to hear but he 819Please respect copyright.PENANAV6BgLRi03o
didn't respond as though he never heard her. I knew he did and I admired819Please respect copyright.PENANA0S0swPayn4
the way he ignored the comment.819Please respect copyright.PENANAucx5oAc48W
The car soon drove away 819Please respect copyright.PENANAXdY4oomA7n
from the hotel and in a space of a few minutes, we found ourselves at 819Please respect copyright.PENANAHcktpjdWKe
YG. Collins said we would first stop here until it was time for all of 819Please respect copyright.PENANAhHR4n7nKxc
us to go to the event. We first had to wait for the BigBang members to 819Please respect copyright.PENANAw4xscwfAEJ
arrive and we would all go together.819Please respect copyright.PENANARWRvzlCjCd
In the meantime, we 819Please respect copyright.PENANAZLB8oKCtig
found ourselves in the recording studio waiting for the others by trying819Please respect copyright.PENANAu6W7ZnL6YR
to keep ourselves busy by chatting. Lee and Collins had left to attend 819Please respect copyright.PENANASKW71EKDtb
to something and they said they would return soon.819Please respect copyright.PENANABx7KlCIanM
"Has anyone been online 819Please respect copyright.PENANA60INHBt1NP
to see what people are talking about right now?" Zoey asked as she 819Please respect copyright.PENANAHrBUrUamKc
looked down at her phone, her face filled with excitement.819Please respect copyright.PENANAlJhZIYnLHY
"No, what are people saying?" I asked as I scooted over her to see what was on her phone.819Please respect copyright.PENANA8Xy53mn6iW
"Christine and I have totally killed it today," said Zoey. "People can't stop talking about how pretty we look."819Please respect copyright.PENANA99Ejt2eqFs
"Well, that's nice," I said as I leaned down comfortably on the couch. "At least today it's not all about me."819Please respect copyright.PENANAK1t9uyIPHy
"Says the person who 819Please respect copyright.PENANAZkemEqLTyL
thinks the surprise is all about her," said Christine who sat beside me.819Please respect copyright.PENANAEuAzLeV9pP
"Don't forget, your supposedly love story of you and G-Dragon, is still819Please respect copyright.PENANAxWMBbkpdS0
the major topic in everyone's mouths."819Please respect copyright.PENANABATwbCY7xQ
"Ya, that's why, I'm 819Please respect copyright.PENANApsxaVY6VEO
trying my best to avoid all posts relating to it all morning," I said as819Please respect copyright.PENANA7wEbeXjjA2
I looked down at my phone. "And so far, I haven't found anything else 819Please respect copyright.PENANAPKKj5yVsaa
interesting at all."819Please respect copyright.PENANA4r2uzHUrUS
"Thats because your love819Please respect copyright.PENANAt2vHZdybEU
story is all what people are talking about," said Zoey. "Trust me. A 819Please respect copyright.PENANASmFPiAK63U
lot of guys, probably the famous ones, are now jealous thinking that 819Please respect copyright.PENANAQZBmkKK8eq
you're taken. And a lot of your haters are probably posting ridiculous 819Please respect copyright.PENANALHahy6ziVL
comments about your relationship."819Please respect copyright.PENANABaNGkWsVA4
"Ya, a relationship that819Please respect copyright.PENANAv2NYIqXrSi
doesn't even exist," said Mike. "What's everyone's problem? One minute 819Please respect copyright.PENANAbYNyeAFhQq
you say and do this and they twist things around."819Please respect copyright.PENANAjPaHCrrWvV
"That's just the life of fame," said Christine. "People can twist anything when they feel like it."819Please respect copyright.PENANAoO8ZVtdels
"How I wish I never tripped that day," I said as I looked up at the ceiling. "This wouldn't be happening."819Please respect copyright.PENANAM9WNX4Y8Vc
"What's done is done, Sam," said Zoey. "And we're celebrities. We just have to deal with such things."819Please respect copyright.PENANAn7BP9IlZKo
"Well, some don't," I muttered. That I knew was true.819Please respect copyright.PENANAu9LDx0dodV
The door immediately flew open and Taeyang, Seungri and Daesung walked into the room looking all casual and good looking.819Please respect copyright.PENANAjfmDXMnPFR
"Hey, guys!" Zoey greeted the others excitedly as she ran over to them in her heels to hug them.819Please respect copyright.PENANARQAuOlRrRa
"Wow, hey, Zoey," said 819Please respect copyright.PENANAnRXXg6kpOV
Daesung, surprised by Zoey's sudden outburst of excitement as she ran to819Please respect copyright.PENANAhdiAZkVEyK
hug him first. "Someone is really excited about today."819Please respect copyright.PENANA6lP7ulxybA
"Tell me about it," I said, still seated and rolling my eyes.819Please respect copyright.PENANAYarcoQAXIa
"And girl, you look stunning," said Seungri, as he took Zoey's hand and twirled her around. "Just stunning."819Please respect copyright.PENANA2b3nVxf24E
"Thank you, Seungri," said Zoey, as she hugged him.819Please respect copyright.PENANAokxz8ZdBzu
"Lee wasn't kidding when819Please respect copyright.PENANAMvQg7GNj4x
she told us that we should prepare ourselves for what we were about to 819Please respect copyright.PENANAjffgue5r0Q
see," said Taeyang. "You look great!"819Please respect copyright.PENANAK6mu1THlWw
"Awww, coming from you guys, it means a lot, thanks," said Zoey, her blush clearly showing on her cheeks.819Please respect copyright.PENANAEC08UJeQDl
"Even Christine looks amazing," said Daesung. "I read on the social network that you two look stunning today."819Please respect copyright.PENANA9Pj18ae03i
"Thanks Daesung," said Christine with a smile.819Please respect copyright.PENANABLVh4PTpo4
"Hey, aren't we forgetting someone?" Seungri asked.819Please respect copyright.PENANArzN3iI2nTU
"Who?" this time it was Daniel who asked.819Please respect copyright.PENANAjz51q54GO1
"Sam," Seungri answered.819Please respect copyright.PENANAwME9xtUNgF
Everyone in the room 819Please respect copyright.PENANAb9Hn42aL0O
turned to look at me like I was a special case. At first, I was caught 819Please respect copyright.PENANArNLpHyW62P
off guard and when I noticed all eyes on me, I shrugged my shoulders 819Please respect copyright.PENANAz5QOKlYYCb
with confusion written all over my face.819Please respect copyright.PENANA8hugb5o7Wu
"What?" I asked.819Please respect copyright.PENANAu5BjNnjYBc
"Ya, what's wrong with Sam?" Mike asked as he stared at Seungri, probably as confused as I was.819Please respect copyright.PENANAJYvEqsr6hI
"No, I just miss her and819Please respect copyright.PENANAgVLFErcEim
she looks stunning as ever!" Seungri said as he ran towards me, pulled 819Please respect copyright.PENANAtNLYhkMNxB
me up from the couch and pulled me into a bear crashing hug.819Please respect copyright.PENANAaa720T4Doo
"If you really missed me819Please respect copyright.PENANAHVL0UsT5XN
that much, you should have just said so," I said, trying my best to 819Please respect copyright.PENANAwXALLVGr4t
breathe but Seungri hugged me way too tight.819Please respect copyright.PENANAhnzTP6A541
"We never really got to hang out yesterday, my panda," Seungri said as he stopped hugging me and stared at me.819Please respect copyright.PENANAL9A3FydsSx
"You look pretty as always. Did you really have a makeover or something?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAhTb619PxEA
"No, I didn't," I answered with my eyebrow raised. "I'm not dressed up like Zoey and Christine, so why do I look stunning?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAC50kMvxlfG
"Though you look causal, you look pretty and really cool too."819Please respect copyright.PENANAktbIbHqywC
I didn't know I looked 819Please respect copyright.PENANASP0nQUFSfh
that way and I quickly checked myself out. Though purple was my 819Please respect copyright.PENANAseARNHSkJ2
favourite colour, I liked black too. I wore a black tight fitting vest, a819Please respect copyright.PENANANe0qmFq6CL
short flared black skirt with matching black leggings with black boots 819Please respect copyright.PENANAoAvWPDS0tK
and a black baseball jacket that had a touch of white on the arms and 819Please respect copyright.PENANAJMoYP9ioS3
the initials B.K on one side of the it.819Please respect copyright.PENANA0CtfHDAB36
"Come to think of it," said Taeyang as he came closer, carefully scrutinising me as though I was a work of art.819Please respect copyright.PENANAFc68ZaLhov
"You do look cool. Almost like a gangster but with a touch of coolness."819Please respect copyright.PENANAotCK2Crolf
"Dressed up like a black kitty for sure," said Daesung as he gave me a genuine smile.819Please respect copyright.PENANAQx0wqhMeVN
"Ya, I also thinks she looks cool," said Mike.819Please respect copyright.PENANA2UanISXzlC
I almost blushed by the comments but I managed to put up a smile instead.819Please respect copyright.PENANAP2pZPflRRB
"Thanks guys," I managed to say.819Please respect copyright.PENANALTV5VLRADi
"Told you you would rock it in black," said Zoey.819Please respect copyright.PENANACQWGZiKJRz
"Don't I always do?" I asked with a mocking smile on my face.819Please respect copyright.PENANAUzVQC2N6Aw
"Ya, you do," Zoey replied.819Please respect copyright.PENANAiKLa1yBrQ8
"Are G-Dragon and TOP on their way?" Daniel asked.819Please respect copyright.PENANAHvjlK5IrP1
"Ya, they will be here soon," said Taeyang.819Please respect copyright.PENANAkUSJrDhD7v
"Well, we will just have819Please respect copyright.PENANAsbtOaGZ05x
to wait then," said Seungri as he sat down and he pulled me by the hand819Please respect copyright.PENANATcHLN1T2YD
and I found myself sitting next to him. "I don't mind waiting as long 819Please respect copyright.PENANAz0p2wjDDDp
as my panda is here with me."819Please respect copyright.PENANA4XPBJ3xfFo
"Oh, brother," I muttered to myself as Seungri wrapped his arm around my shoulder.819Please respect copyright.PENANABoHwbNmaUr
"Haha, looks like Seungri really did miss you," said Christine as she stared at the two of us.819Please respect copyright.PENANAyMyWCFj4Zr
"I didn't," I said bluntly.819Please respect copyright.PENANAoJaWNgxBHm
"It's okay, my lovely 819Please respect copyright.PENANAfYq0zbWG6n
panda," said Seungri as he came close to my ear. "We have the whole day 819Please respect copyright.PENANAA5y9k1zKJF
together and it will be so much fun."819Please respect copyright.PENANAl0uiIZ3Dmb
"Ya, I've no doubt about that," I said as I turned to face him.819Please respect copyright.PENANAomUpvP1Fk5
To be honest, I wouldn't819Please respect copyright.PENANAH0MYoXgeud
mind if I had to spend the whole day with Seungri by my side. If it was819Please respect copyright.PENANAUoQHEoCdG0
one way of not getting too close to G-Dragon, it was fine by me.819Please respect copyright.PENANAtXjhkmxZun
"This is now nine," said819Please respect copyright.PENANAtnXqf93sU6
Zoey as she looked at the time on her phone. "We're supposed to be 819Please respect copyright.PENANAns9KeTUp6j
there by 10. We still got more time to chill."819Please respect copyright.PENANAdwPEqSIvsk
Zoey, Taeyang and 819Please respect copyright.PENANAzKo2mO9Kyi
Daesung came to join us on the couch. I was left chatting with Seungri 819Please respect copyright.PENANARE01BiDeRm
while the others were talking about the event. I didn't really want to 819Please respect copyright.PENANARxvMqN8zL0
talk about it because of the surprise and I was glad that none of the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAwPROyU0yv1
Toxins brought up the issue about me supposedly being paranoid about it.819Please respect copyright.PENANAanmgBxCUvA
I was also glad that Seungri kept me distracted from the other's 819Please respect copyright.PENANAx0MNQ1PHo0
conversation. I really needed to keep my mind busy and why not with 819Please respect copyright.PENANA6VOEvayFBj
someone like Seungri?819Please respect copyright.PENANAQoBAbdy8Ir
In what seemed like thirty minutes afterwards, Lee came into the room.819Please respect copyright.PENANAFtzaGqSrqd
"Sorry to break up your 819Please respect copyright.PENANAMgBDnG0FWW
little gathering, but we need to go," said Lee. "Your managers think it 819Please respect copyright.PENANA4XxCIeHTsa
will be a good idea that we go early to run over a few things with you, 819Please respect copyright.PENANAPuCcMUhukc
especially The Toxins."819Please respect copyright.PENANAt7ZYevXBrD
"But aren't TOP and G-Dragon here yet?" Daesung asked.819Please respect copyright.PENANAgukeSiuPC8
"They are waiting downstairs," said Lee. "Come on, we better get going."819Please respect copyright.PENANAmHYschEX8q
Lee quickly left the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAQneR0aY8ig
room while we slowly stood up from our seats. I kind of felt bad that we819Please respect copyright.PENANAR5WnnCKdo4
were leaving sooner than I expected. I seriously wasn't ready to go 819Please respect copyright.PENANAxSxUpO81by
downstairs and meet G-Dragon. After what happened yesterday, I didn't 819Please respect copyright.PENANA1vQ1B5oMoa
feel ready to meet him face to face. What was I going to say? Our group 819Please respect copyright.PENANA16v1W1bL4Z
members now think the two of us are on speaking terms again when it was 819Please respect copyright.PENANAnIiH2NHIpR
actually the opposite. We only spoke yesterday because it was necessary 819Please respect copyright.PENANA9gnAN4smzl
due to the song and the little encounter I had with G-Dragon. Now that 819Please respect copyright.PENANA8S8Jv2fdmo
it was nothing but a social gathering with the fans, what were the two 819Please respect copyright.PENANAs8e9sfzis1
of us going to do? And not only that, what were we going to say to each 819Please respect copyright.PENANAHGi5mKFU3x
other in front of our fans?819Please respect copyright.PENANADQfzOsoFrA
I tried not to think of 819Please respect copyright.PENANAE5Bd8LkoE8
the worst case scenario as I walked out of the room with Seungri by my 819Please respect copyright.PENANAaRLjMbf6Up
side. I had to act normal and not get caught up in my mind again. When I819Please respect copyright.PENANA6DYnP7pbxK
usually do that, most people think I'm being distant when I actually 819Please respect copyright.PENANACzXUbXMfnx
wasn't. I really hate the fact that I over think all the time, but there819Please respect copyright.PENANAzoRJUZ7AIx
is always a time when I find it quite enjoyable.819Please respect copyright.PENANAyDnW83ji46
We found ourselves on 819Please respect copyright.PENANAaGV7RCxDu8
the ground floor and our two managers stood waiting for us with 819Please respect copyright.PENANAt2HwKdTwA5
TOP. That was weird. I wondered where G-Dragon was because there was no 819Please respect copyright.PENANAvHC7zQemEr
sign of him in the lobby and I wasn't ready to ask.819Please respect copyright.PENANApLNjh2abKS
"Look who we have here,"819Please respect copyright.PENANA8gNpqMbnbq
said TOP as he slowly brought down his stunning sunglasses when he saw 819Please respect copyright.PENANAeO5Dr47g3Q
us approaching. I had to admit, TOP looked way cooler and handsome too.819Please respect copyright.PENANAhEDjc3dtQn
He wore a black shirt 819Please respect copyright.PENANANC4ifItiwB
with a red cashmere jacket and black designer jeans with stunning black 819Please respect copyright.PENANAcZf5J2msjo
shoes. I now realised what fans have said about him when they post pics 819Please respect copyright.PENANALsPWhdnRy1
stating that he dresses like he is about to take over the world. I 819Please respect copyright.PENANALckgj8zzzf
wasn't going to lie, he did look like those cool guys in the movies 819Please respect copyright.PENANABKg1GMi8aZ
trying to take over the world. And I wouldn't mind being by his side if 819Please respect copyright.PENANA96yl0kig2k
he ever did.819Please respect copyright.PENANAoA97aK59Qd
"Zoey, Christine," said TOP as he drew closer. "You girls are looking elegant today."819Please respect copyright.PENANA7SrdjX1qBz
"Thanks," Zoey and Christine said at the same time.819Please respect copyright.PENANAUhaGfnpuGL
"You also look great, TOP," said Zoey. "Totally cool."819Please respect copyright.PENANAinpQtNOnN6
"Thanks," said TOP as he smiled.819Please respect copyright.PENANAX7jQGPowwj
I looked down when I 819Please respect copyright.PENANAWXouNot1OT
noticed TOP's eyes on me. I was already blushing and I didn't want to 819Please respect copyright.PENANAhyvYM2lwkG
look straight at him. With that bad boy look of his, who knows how I was819Please respect copyright.PENANAA6MrD2D1Ln
going to react. Sometimes I never knew what to do or what to say when a819Please respect copyright.PENANAuTqSrTjjPF
guy as good looking as TOP was staring at me. I remember my school days819Please respect copyright.PENANA3uhaSGV7a5
and when a cute guy ever looked at me or even talked to me, I would 819Please respect copyright.PENANAkhlKNviB7O
always look like an idiot in the end. As normal and average as I was at 819Please respect copyright.PENANAYHchhLrXud
first, my friends used to find me weird when it came to guys. As I grew 819Please respect copyright.PENANA3OQ0aWNtmy
older and got over the shyness, that still didn't change the fact that I819Please respect copyright.PENANAwzyNpZ01pv
acted like a total idiot sometimes.819Please respect copyright.PENANAL325m0W0qi
"Wow, Sam, you're looking great," said TOP as he approached me. I found it hard to respond and I had to force myself.819Please respect copyright.PENANAsvHkadL7n8
"I....um." I cleared my 819Please respect copyright.PENANAF8jCcm8tC3
throat. "Thanks. You look great too." "You look like a black kitty for 819Please respect copyright.PENANAXYhoR2QysG
sure. All you need are cat ears and a tail."819Please respect copyright.PENANAihNuT8PS6H
"I was just about to suggest that," said Daniel as he snapped his fingers.819Please respect copyright.PENANAw8rdeTBTd6
"I don't need cat ears and a tail," I said. I could clearly feel my cheeks blushing and I looked the other way.819Please respect copyright.PENANAeNeZ3mxdw2
"And you could put on her whiskers too," said Taeyang, with a smile on his face.819Please respect copyright.PENANAUu6vDtjX0D
"With a pink cute nose," said Daesung. "Just imagine how cute she would look."819Please respect copyright.PENANA2sGlbH0jZS
"Awww, I can imagine how819Please respect copyright.PENANAo3WiNdzDOr
she looks already," said Zoey as she tickled under my chin like I was a819Please respect copyright.PENANArvQ1Ra0ZUO
cat. "Whose my little black kitty! Yes, you're! Yes, you're!"819Please respect copyright.PENANAwGaSPhwDrx
"Stop it! Collins, tell 819Please respect copyright.PENANATT8vmfxHHv
her to stop!" I pushed Zoey's hand away but that didn't stop her from 819Please respect copyright.PENANAxsG4CuvA0P
coming closer to me and tickling me all over my body.819Please respect copyright.PENANATffxgCuf20
I tried to move away 819Please respect copyright.PENANAnLpRaay4mK
from Zoey as far as possible. I ran around our group members and our 819Please respect copyright.PENANAVqUUZE71zy
managers running from Zoey as she tried to catch me and tickle me some 819Please respect copyright.PENANA0XMLfyPsOq
more. I laughed along with Zoey as she chased me around. I had never 819Please respect copyright.PENANAEERYlaAIX0
felt so happy and excited in such a long time. I felt like a little kid 819Please respect copyright.PENANAKz0vdMX1IY
again and I loved the feeling.819Please respect copyright.PENANAHLAx2sHoXG
"Come here, Sam," said Zoey. "I want to tickle you some more."819Please respect copyright.PENANAGnWMKgO7Gy
"No way!" I said as I ran behind Taeyang.819Please respect copyright.PENANAIaGvZ9EH4p
"Can you two stop running around like little kids?" Collins called out to us as Zoey ran past him.819Please respect copyright.PENANA32aPahZUWR
"Tell her to stop chasing me and trying to tickle me," I said to Collins as I continued to laugh.819Please respect copyright.PENANALwCIsDVRep
To be honest, I wasn't 819Please respect copyright.PENANAGpEzsrnzCu
ready for the fun to stop just yet. Just as I ran behind Daniel, I felt 819Please respect copyright.PENANAQtxuYEe7qD
someone grab my waist from behind and I was drawn backwards. My back 819Please respect copyright.PENANAq6bl8Hjnkc
leaned on something hard. I realised that TOP was the one who grabbed me819Please respect copyright.PENANA41VRT3MIpP
and I was leaning on his chest. This wasn't good. Zoey came over and 819Please respect copyright.PENANA2OSJShmt5S
she started to tickle me. I laughed so hard that I couldn't stop and 819Please respect copyright.PENANAvsVPhXStpy
tears fell out of my eyes. Zoey knew just where to tickle me on my sides819Please respect copyright.PENANAFuEh6Cvmbu
and I laughed so hard.819Please respect copyright.PENANAjsHPybPHzy
I tried telling her to 819Please respect copyright.PENANAanV8ej6O9f
stop but I couldn't say so because I laughed so hard. Zoey was enjoying 819Please respect copyright.PENANAOKakL9gydW
herself with this and TOP who held me, was silently laughing behind me. I819Please respect copyright.PENANAF7uUJWDsCF
was glad that TOP was holding me, because I would have dropped to the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAu4YrSwJKJU
floor laughing. Everyone around us also started to laugh. I was told 819Please respect copyright.PENANAOtZ0RHLhaX
that I had such a contagious laugh that others around me start to laugh 819Please respect copyright.PENANAGaRr2ErnKR
too.819Please respect copyright.PENANApf33ZdYmX9
I soon managed to break 819Please respect copyright.PENANAEJPfSbFY70
away from TOP when Zoey finally stopped tickling me. I was still 819Please respect copyright.PENANAGbAt5oISPC
laughing so hard that I wasn't really looking where I was going. I 819Please respect copyright.PENANAIrSfsfwEyk
wasn't aware that I was moving backwards.819Please respect copyright.PENANAf9R7k9W7LV
Then all of sudden, I 819Please respect copyright.PENANAZ2kTOslhYd
lost my footing and at that point, time stopped. I didn't really mind if819Please respect copyright.PENANAEUocbiYaU9
I found myself on the floor since I was laughing too hard.819Please respect copyright.PENANA8Um34h1LD9
But surprisingly, that didn't happen.819Please respect copyright.PENANAJi8QCquYf1
As I lost my footing, I 819Please respect copyright.PENANAuppecAoE4w
was falling backwards and I felt my back lean on something. At first I 819Please respect copyright.PENANAWHBTYgkTPP
thought it was a wall, but when I felt someone's hands around me to hold819Please respect copyright.PENANAkiSpZvevjI
me steady, I knew someone had just prevented me from falling to the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAIA0MvDAgBG
floor. I stopped laughing. With his arms around me, I knew who it was. 819Please respect copyright.PENANA6sp1bBqfT1
It felt like my body knew exactly who held me without even looking. At 819Please respect copyright.PENANAe2sba9kBYQ
that moment, I felt embarrassed even to turn my head and at him in the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAYSN6LECCng
face.819Please respect copyright.PENANAFM97uIAbSl
"Wow, Sam," said Zoey at she looked at me. "Looks like you have been saved from falling. Again."819Please respect copyright.PENANA6toe9xWxJG
"And by the same person too," said Seungri.819Please respect copyright.PENANAZPBd5sfqzw
I realised that everyone819Please respect copyright.PENANAacd1sG2NS5
was looking at G-Dragon and I. I felt my face grow hot in 819Please respect copyright.PENANA5wv9jkBhX0
embarrassment. I finally managed to straighten myself up and I turned to819Please respect copyright.PENANAWl70psl5yl
look at G-Dragon behind me.819Please respect copyright.PENANAn0BEg9Ge7T
Just like most of us, 819Please respect copyright.PENANAMMdm35TMS9
G-Dragon also wore casual clothes but surprisingly, he wore all black 819Please respect copyright.PENANA5EgVPmRzvN
just like me. When I noticed that, I grew a little startled that I was 819Please respect copyright.PENANAP2cPYd82jL
lost for words. He did look really cool though. With a long black 819Please respect copyright.PENANAYjJwbkujzU
designer shirt and jeans with pretty cool white and black designer 819Please respect copyright.PENANAcbft9v90Iu
sneakers. A gold chain hang around his neck adding a perfect look to his819Please respect copyright.PENANA71z39txWkZ
outfit with diamond studs on his ears.819Please respect copyright.PENANAH88Z8SlFTO
"Oh, wow!" Christine exclaimed behind me. "Is it just me or today is a total black Saturday?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAVTt6CAbNtJ
I knew this wasn't going819Please respect copyright.PENANAfU0Ek7IJlf
to go unnoticed. When Christine blurted out that statement, G-Dragon 819Please respect copyright.PENANAJhMPNFv7Ke
looked at me from head to toe. I could feel his eyes analysing my outfit819Please respect copyright.PENANAYYx2pckzS6
and that sent a tingle down my spine. I didn't know if that was a good 819Please respect copyright.PENANAYR5lKHTMvy
thing or a bad thing.819Please respect copyright.PENANAxZxSKTtqOD
"Yikes! That's going to send a fashion statement to the whole world," said Lee.819Please respect copyright.PENANAJq7erysLzk
"You two really surprise me sometimes," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Did you plan to go out like this?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAXjtPaVfWWj
G-Dragon and I quickly turned at the same time to look at the others and we both said, "no."819Please respect copyright.PENANAaiPcmfx0Bu
For a moment, there was 819Please respect copyright.PENANAPAvnMVWEpP
silence and G-Dragon and I looked at each other. I quickly looked away 819Please respect copyright.PENANAss1A9Pnauq
because I could suddenly feel myself blushing. Why was I blushing?819Please respect copyright.PENANAORFwjp8AKz
"I'm also surprised," said Mike. "But I have to admit, you two look awesome!"819Please respect copyright.PENANAYhp386lQ1k
"Here," said Zoey as she took out her phone and she quickly took a photo of G-Dragon and I.819Please respect copyright.PENANAA2VF9Sdl0L
I was completely caught 819Please respect copyright.PENANA7WFJO6pAXp
unaware when the camera light flashed before my eyes. I wasn't even 819Please respect copyright.PENANAF3D8ilFZxs
ready for the photo yet. What the heck! I didn't even want my picture 819Please respect copyright.PENANA7sds2FnAVE
taken either.819Please respect copyright.PENANAMHYapE24Ut
"Awww, so cute!" Zoey 819Please respect copyright.PENANA0FxDAD0bPR
said excitedly as she showed the photo to TOP who stood right beside 819Please respect copyright.PENANATm6cz33AIk
her. "They look awesome, don't you think?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAEzzuwcl0ih
"Ya, they really do," said TOP.819Please respect copyright.PENANAD9ZZiobdBk
"You should post that and see what people think," said Taeyang.819Please respect copyright.PENANAD74Eoq0kew
"Good idea," said Zoey as she started swiping and tapping on her phone.819Please respect copyright.PENANAJThbOzPkpy
"Oh no you don't!" I warned as I walked over to Zoey. 819Please respect copyright.PENANAGzo6KDXHF0
Before I could even reach her, TOP and Seungri blocked my path as they stood shoulder to shoulder like body guards.819Please respect copyright.PENANAqjRcLMjIk6
"You've got to be 819Please respect copyright.PENANA1yUuLwJ1lu
kidding me," I said as I rolled my eyes at them. I knew it was already 819Please respect copyright.PENANAtFw4eVs4Yi
too late. Zoey is quick with sending out posts to our fans than she is 819Please respect copyright.PENANAELsVoiBPcv
with coming up with new ideas.819Please respect copyright.PENANAyGL6y4I9FF
"Done and done!" Zoey 819Please respect copyright.PENANAABhCr8KPj5
announced. "Oh, look! In a matter of seconds, there are already 10 819Please respect copyright.PENANAFKguijw8B6
likes. Let's just see what's going to happen afterwards."819Please respect copyright.PENANAX0fQaDfPC0
"I hate you, Zoey," I said after TOP and Seungri stepped aside and I came face to face with her.819Please respect copyright.PENANA6yzXscilcY
"You'll thank me later," said Zoey giving me a wink.819Please respect copyright.PENANACqHuukwgDk
"Now that your shenanigans are over," said Collins, "we better get going, the cars are here."819Please respect copyright.PENANARnYvYE5nnw
Thank goodness. All I 819Please respect copyright.PENANAEORP2Lzlun
wanted was for us to leave. What just happened was already embarrassing 819Please respect copyright.PENANAObJU81qYNt
enough. And what surprised me was that throughout all of it, G-Dragon 819Please respect copyright.PENANAWQ256UQLPs
had not said a word at all. I was now starting to worry. But it didn't 819Please respect copyright.PENANALiq9c14Lrm
take long for my worry to evaporate as G-Dragon went past me and started819Please respect copyright.PENANAPDpepZEbxi
a conversation with Zoey as we all stepped out of the building and 819Please respect copyright.PENANA0rktuhixVo
heading the cars.819Please respect copyright.PENANAWHNmoPeks4
Well, that was a relief.819Please respect copyright.PENANALdEruxlHJR
For a moment there, I thought he was going to start acting weird again 819Please respect copyright.PENANASsZwxi6o53
like yesterday. He was gladly talking to the other members with a smile 819Please respect copyright.PENANA5TQRECBVV2
on his face as though nothing was wrong. A small smile came across my 819Please respect copyright.PENANA2DPBag1VoU
face and I was glad no one noticed. I wouldn't mind bearing the silent 819Please respect copyright.PENANAaagYGZpyz2
treatment he gave me as long as he was okay.819Please respect copyright.PENANArZtBQI2Bnm
The reporters and the 819Please respect copyright.PENANA0qJn9mgzVb
paparazzi waited outside the YG premises and when they saw us leave the 819Please respect copyright.PENANA6gU5N4eY5F
building, the camera lights blinked and even from a distance, the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAAjHpMW75gT
flashing lights were annoying. They called out to us to grab our 819Please respect copyright.PENANAlFFSHu2zY2
attention and only a few of us waved at the reporters. Our managers and 819Please respect copyright.PENANA9DlaRyBp6d
Lee got into the first SUV which meant the other two were reserved for 819Please respect copyright.PENANAfLlRGYESX6
us.819Please respect copyright.PENANAjS4ZKAfbSv
I already planned that I would stick around with Seungri for today, but it looked like Zoey had other better ideas.819Please respect copyright.PENANAnwtRXOhMwk
"Hey, Sam, why don't you819Please respect copyright.PENANAoDVLOPOZ1G
join G-Dragon and I in the same car?" Zoey suggested. "Not only would 819Please respect copyright.PENANAb79KkSPWsz
it be fun to have you two around, but just imagine what people would say819Please respect copyright.PENANAaKztF3Hz0L
when you two get out of the car since you two look all pimped up in 819Please respect copyright.PENANAlfAcbVUfMS
black!"819Please respect copyright.PENANAT5PU6OUIEI
I opened my mouth to 819Please respect copyright.PENANAtkh0qMGjw1
decline, but the words never came out. Being around G-Dragon was already819Please respect copyright.PENANAFQ06YOgf9K
awkward for me and I couldn't blame Zoey. She didn't know what was 819Please respect copyright.PENANAfcZ5kXTvQs
going on. But if the two of us got to be in the same car, Zoey and the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAeAtfUmpkPB
others will definitely notice that something is wrong. I bit my lip at 819Please respect copyright.PENANAlBnExlm2ej
the thought. What was I going to do?819Please respect copyright.PENANAFG6nKbiITF
I looked at G-Dragon and819Please respect copyright.PENANAlCHlKOF6T0
he still didn't utter a word to me. I bet he also thought the same 819Please respect copyright.PENANAYbujN0oMsW
way. I needed someone to save me right now.819Please respect copyright.PENANAMitMcbRzt9
"No, Sam, is coming with me."819Please respect copyright.PENANAsI7ah3O1A0
My prayer had finally been answered. Seungri came and took me by the hand as he came to stand right beside me.819Please respect copyright.PENANAlo2H8bLdTh
Our other group members 819Please respect copyright.PENANAXKrpWnBgGx
had already settled down in the car of their choice and I hadn't even 819Please respect copyright.PENANAjQ5fssD6v8
noticed. I was so relieved that Seungri just saved me from all this. I 819Please respect copyright.PENANAahnCrRw6kS
silently couldn't thank him enough.819Please respect copyright.PENANAX8YVXY54jL
"Sam and I already planned that we would be close today," said Seungri. "So maybe later."819Please respect copyright.PENANAKhPwNrFRmu
"You two decided to be close today?" G-Dragon asked with his eyebrow raised and a questioning look on his face.819Please respect copyright.PENANAzP0lUr2qLl
"I never really got to 819Please respect copyright.PENANAqkLcSehy5J
hang out with her so much yesterday. So, ya, I want her close today," 819Please respect copyright.PENANAvATNoZdAqy
said Seungri. "You wouldn't mind, right?"819Please respect copyright.PENANA85sCzn1pZV
"Not all," said Zoey. 819Please respect copyright.PENANArkVRZkmHZ6
"It's fine by me. We better get going before one of our managers gets to819Please respect copyright.PENANAMWcdwU5gKN
stick out their heads out of the car and scold us."819Please respect copyright.PENANAkJY8fQp595
Zoey was right. The four819Please respect copyright.PENANA2oU62zaKi4
of us had wasted so much time talking. Seungri pulled me along with 819Please respect copyright.PENANAhCghdKODc7
him, still holding my hand as we got into the second car while Zoey and 819Please respect copyright.PENANA9TjXRfhXO2
G-Dragon went in the last one.819Please respect copyright.PENANAdCzreDcYer
I was glad I was in the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAUpPpIOJpoE
same car with Seungri, Mike, Taeyang and Daniel. I didn't feel like 819Please respect copyright.PENANA408RyK7Tfb
being with G-Dragon in the same car and better yet, in the enclosed 819Please respect copyright.PENANAewKYTBMQao
space of the car. How was I going to even breathe in there? I wanted as 819Please respect copyright.PENANAroSVt2TbVa
much as to thank Seungri for saving my neck, but that was to come 819Please respect copyright.PENANAK657G2cO09
another day. I didn't want the others to get worried if they found out 819Please respect copyright.PENANAJy2BvedtaJ
that G-Dragon and I still weren't okay with each other.819Please respect copyright.PENANArNPvjGWMPq
While the car drove out 819Please respect copyright.PENANAYQMBZpyDVE
of the YG premises following the other car in front, Seungri and the 819Please respect copyright.PENANA7jd1VCovZU
other BigBang members took the time to explain what happens during fan 819Please respect copyright.PENANAOUqUPDnAWp
signing events. Most of the time, fan signing events usually take place 819Please respect copyright.PENANA0mjHLiqfvd
when a K-Pop group were making a comeback debut or promoting their 819Please respect copyright.PENANAhklMvzDaDA
upcoming album. Our fan signing event was a little usual since we 819Please respect copyright.PENANAQCysUzZmeA
weren't promoting any upcoming album just a single.819Please respect copyright.PENANAVhbWNZswUf
I soon realised that 819Please respect copyright.PENANA6oZCHjmnjv
G-Dragon and I hadn't even worked so much on the song yet. I made a 819Please respect copyright.PENANAMUY4K5Nuol
mental note to try and work on the song on my own for a bit before I 819Please respect copyright.PENANALvL4JQcgNl
went to bed tonight.819Please respect copyright.PENANA06e0oPLk6S
We soon found ourselves 819Please respect copyright.PENANAh9JVlieoxP
at what seemed to look like an audience hall. The parking lot was filled819Please respect copyright.PENANA8qa2o6kXoN
and packed with fans. The fans noticed the cars arrive and there was a 819Please respect copyright.PENANAGs3pBvs9lO
huge outburst of excitement. The cars made a turn for the back where it 819Please respect copyright.PENANAKmE8Y7OqqX
was safer for us since our fans seemed to get out of control. 819Please respect copyright.PENANAlA6JieqHUu
Immediately we went through the back gate of the building, the gates 819Please respect copyright.PENANAEYiCoYdm4T
closed behind us. The place was filled with security just in case things819Please respect copyright.PENANAh2X3lFxjR8
went wrong.819Please respect copyright.PENANAJdMFJFcGf7
We came out of the car 819Please respect copyright.PENANAJGwHBmToAv
and I finally got to stretch my legs. I had to admit, I was a little 819Please respect copyright.PENANA3ZiaRK2TKM
nervous about the event and I hoped it went well. But then came the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAH70IbkN7ai
feeling of the surprise. I just hoped that this time around, I was wrong819Please respect copyright.PENANAy9cIjeL0qL
and I was being paranoid like my group members had told me earlier.819Please respect copyright.PENANA1LVQK9oC0H
"So, are you ready?" Yang Hyun-suk asked as he, Collins and Lee came out of the car.819Please respect copyright.PENANAtExet6VaL9
"These guys might be ready," said Zoey as she jumped out of the car with G-Dragon following behind her. "But I'm not."819Please respect copyright.PENANAsS3eHxUJAk
"I'm also a little nervous too," I said. "There are so many fans out there and I don't know what to expect."819Please respect copyright.PENANApivgajLVIE
"Don't worry, Sam," said Taeyang. "There is completely nothing to worry about."819Please respect copyright.PENANAfq9XIi9Jyp
"Well, I hope so," said 819Please respect copyright.PENANAumtUVVKqCM
Christine as she twirled her hair. "We will go through a few things with819Please respect copyright.PENANA1riSgCxezH
you before the event starts," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Follow me."819Please respect copyright.PENANAJbQwkqwUGi
Our managers with Lee 819Please respect copyright.PENANALid5MD8Uap
led the way through the back door and we found ourselves in the dressing819Please respect copyright.PENANA80XdZQMcTa
room where we were told to wait. We still had enough time till the 819Please respect copyright.PENANA4lVwtsuGVF
event started so Yang Hyun-suk went through some things with us with 819Please respect copyright.PENANAuXtAVPnMNQ
what goes on during fan signing events. Though Daniel, Mike and I had 819Please respect copyright.PENANA9AeVPlz0vp
already been told by Seungri and Taeyang about what usually happens, 819Please respect copyright.PENANAxLo7rabcgm
there were a few things they kind of left out that Yang Hyun-suk managed819Please respect copyright.PENANApxjWpHPcUy
to tell us. Like the way the fans interact with their celebrities might819Please respect copyright.PENANAdKGpQH9mB4
be a bit freaky but it's part of the K-Pop culture. But he did emphasis819Please respect copyright.PENANAton8Dk1XOF
to be ourselves when we go out there to meet our fans and interact with819Please respect copyright.PENANAAinu1zCHTJ
them. It seems there was really nothing to worry about.819Please respect copyright.PENANAL9lhAWR8Wk
We still had thirty-five819Please respect copyright.PENANAf2H76E7wHx
minutes till the event starts, so our managers left and said they would819Please respect copyright.PENANAbMqZa4pvKt
send for us when the time came. I was glad that Lee stayed behind with 819Please respect copyright.PENANAaObD7hBSh9
us though I was quite sure Collins told her to keep an eye out on us, 819Please respect copyright.PENANA6lyRRdrhHt
especially us, Toxins. Anyway, I needed her around. Since we came here, 819Please respect copyright.PENANAg9GmqGQnhm
she and I didn't really have some time to talk like we usually do back 819Please respect copyright.PENANAsIuVDskgp0
home. And besides, Seungri completely ignored me this time around and 819Please respect copyright.PENANAsRAEPOpCd4
was chatting with Christine and Daesung, so Lee was the appropriate chat819Please respect copyright.PENANAOhnOdelsxJ
buddy while we waited.819Please respect copyright.PENANAAK5u8Ahguc
"So, I see you're clearly avoiding G-Dragon today," said Lee, who sat right next to me.819Please respect copyright.PENANArst7p7BaTG
"No, I'm not avoiding him," I said. "He's avoiding me."819Please respect copyright.PENANAm95CkZzhPc
"Ya, I noticed the way he was giving you the silent treatment. He didn't even say you look nice or pretty back at YG."819Please respect copyright.PENANA6yrv2CFNue
"I don't mind." Lee gave819Please respect copyright.PENANAT2Dd85M1V1
me a look I couldn't describe. She had her eyebrow raised, her lips 819Please respect copyright.PENANAbLIvzR72r2
pursed together and her arms folded. I could tell she was studying me, 819Please respect copyright.PENANA7tF2cRWY1M
but what was running in that head of hers, I was hoping to find out.819Please respect copyright.PENANA4hNfGa9iPd
"Since when did you ever become the 'I-don't-care' type?" Lee asked.819Please respect copyright.PENANAF3cSwk7Rr3
"Ever since I realised that I'm not supposed to care what other people think about me," I answered.819Please respect copyright.PENANAQZAZPxQI1r
"Mmmm, sounds like you really don't care or are you just bluffing?"819Please respect copyright.PENANA1UqdA1lTAr
"No, I'm not. I just 819Please respect copyright.PENANAprN5ZeTzti
don't want things to get as complicated as it already is." I kept my 819Please respect copyright.PENANALcF76lLx3i
voice down so that no one could hear me. "The others think G-Dragon and I819Please respect copyright.PENANAHvmul4QkEm
are no longer fighting. And yesterday was nothing but weird. I don't 819Please respect copyright.PENANA8eCTGdGqbl
want to worry the others while we are here."819Please respect copyright.PENANANM4Ruek6Ka
I was seated at the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAanQ5zh4wnM
corner of the room with Lee. It was a nice comfortable space for just 819Please respect copyright.PENANA9OI9Ak4nx1
the two of us to talk without raising much attention. Zoey sat with 819Please respect copyright.PENANAdfGbGlAy7V
G-Dragon, Taeyang and my brothers on the opposite side of the room, 819Please respect copyright.PENANAreAaRbGMXy
almost close to the door.819Please respect copyright.PENANADTAQBtHnLA
"And you think it's 819Please respect copyright.PENANAJR30zw83OO
going to last long?" Lee asked. "The two of you're supposed to be 819Please respect copyright.PENANAajiPedYGu0
working on the lyrics together and that will require communication and 819Please respect copyright.PENANAsJebbXAkRM
stuff."819Please respect copyright.PENANAOVvsvGlA0H
"Ya, well, that's not 819Please respect copyright.PENANA3Ggkoz6udP
the issue," I said as I shrugged my shoulders. "I'm worried when our 819Please respect copyright.PENANArMQuVqeq0c
members are around. I'm glad they never noticed that G-Dragon didn't say819Please respect copyright.PENANAAwdagL6NNP
a word to me so far, but what will happen later on? And in front of the819Please respect copyright.PENANA01glmHf1Dq
fans?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAhBJpTVYq9P
"Wait a minute. So you think, the others might just do something that may require you and GD to say something to each other?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAJBWbCVIDLC
"I won't be surprised. I mean, we do have Zoey for those kind of things."819Please respect copyright.PENANAc7WRJSkFsW
"True. Let's just hope 819Please respect copyright.PENANAYOkdguIb1D
the surprise won't trigger that to happen." This time, I looked at Lee 819Please respect copyright.PENANAex9lBzFijl
who wasn't looking at me. I could clearly see on her face now that she 819Please respect copyright.PENANAPrrIYCfui1
was kind of nervous when she mentioned the surprise.819Please respect copyright.PENANAFmNT7uBpWi
"What's the surprise, 819Please respect copyright.PENANApgvYY9TiMi
Lee?" I went straight to the point this time around and I wasn't ready 819Please respect copyright.PENANAxVmMyZE15K
to take no for an answer, though I knew I was surly going to get one.819Please respect copyright.PENANAA1vfa1pvuF
"What? The surprise?" 819Please respect copyright.PENANA76zX3wQqIt
That almost gave us away and everyone's attention in the room turned to 819Please respect copyright.PENANAss9vPAJLst
us because Lee spoke a little loudly. But no one seemed to care 819Please respect copyright.PENANAvuUaW4yRz2
afterwards as they went on to what they were doing, ignoring us.819Please respect copyright.PENANAER2spx6Uhg
"Well, ya, and I know you know what the surprise is."819Please respect copyright.PENANA8ZqjMVIhyM
"But that's really top secret, Sam. I can't tell you."819Please respect copyright.PENANAjGszMU8Abe
"Really? Please, Lee. This isn't stuff to do with the Secret Service. Why don't you tell me what it is?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAM1pQmP6lG2
"I can't and you know how those two managers are. They are going to kill me if they found out I told you what the surprise was."819Please respect copyright.PENANAX4KovImLD4
"Okay, well give me a 819Please respect copyright.PENANAiKy1P007wk
hint then. Is this surprise for The Toxins and BigBang or what?" Lee 819Please respect copyright.PENANAUTDaCKZRPE
gave me a sincere look and I knew what she was about to tell me next was819Please respect copyright.PENANAg3ly2IReLm
the truth.819Please respect copyright.PENANA3boOmvuPB2
"The surprise isn't for you guys only. It's for the whole world to see."819Please respect copyright.PENANA27oKFfqXf9
This time, I thought Lee819Please respect copyright.PENANAuVuGVlq42G
was speaking in riddles. But somehow, it did make sense. But what would819Please respect copyright.PENANAsVju7D6ybR
Yang Hyun-suk and Collins have planned as a surprise for the whole 819Please respect copyright.PENANAMHTswBiU5l
world? I now felt something was wrong. And with my last question in my 819Please respect copyright.PENANA5Wqb1xDCRY
mind, I just had to confirm with Lee.819Please respect copyright.PENANA3XLIAHDsfm
"Okay, this is probably 819Please respect copyright.PENANAM9wJ6bHvP0
the last question I'm going to ask you," I said, assuring Lee that I 819Please respect copyright.PENANAWQ3zZZPUmH
meant what I said. "But I need to confirm something with you."819Please respect copyright.PENANAukRQSgc3Yk
"Fire away then," said Lee. "I just hope it's not a complicated question to answer."819Please respect copyright.PENANAMANaGuuviN
It took me a while to 819Please respect copyright.PENANAjjkaCUbdGo
come up with the right words to ask. I didn't want to sound weird and I 819Please respect copyright.PENANAUePk3aEbHs
didn't want to start beating around the bush either.819Please respect copyright.PENANAICpfkusl83
"Does the surprise have anything to do with me?" I asked.819Please respect copyright.PENANATpLQI6p2pe
Lee looked at me, 819Please respect copyright.PENANAmWB0hPoNN3
startled. I waited for her to reply but the door flew open and someone 819Please respect copyright.PENANAvd4zDVmpMs
came in, one of the organising crew of the event, asking for Lee. Darn 819Please respect copyright.PENANAR632krNjlb
it! She had been saved by the bell. What was I going to do now?819Please respect copyright.PENANANQVdVF4a9V
"We'll talk later," said Lee, as she gave me an apologetic look as she stood up from the chair and left.819Please respect copyright.PENANAGUvtx6W1pV
I had a feeling I wasn't819Please respect copyright.PENANAedP0cdvmA7
going to get my answer right there and then. Looks like I had to wait 819Please respect copyright.PENANA7cQ6NugiWH
till the surprise came. Too bad I couldn't get the answer I was looking 819Please respect copyright.PENANAPQHJ0f3Z5k
for. But because of Lee's expression when I asked her, I might probably 819Please respect copyright.PENANA0z58rULrbS
be right about the surprise. Or maybe I was just trying to comfort 819Please respect copyright.PENANAQKMLJTDBeJ
myself thinking that I might be wrong. Yikes! Self denial was one thing I819Please respect copyright.PENANAWktcJcmLJh
never liked to tolerate but I had to look at the possibilities that I 819Please respect copyright.PENANAXJE9zqEA5Q
might actually be wrong for once.819Please respect copyright.PENANA03DgsPyHej
I still sat alone in the819Please respect copyright.PENANALSLZUDdKIh
corner, this time browsing on my phone about the latest news on 819Please respect copyright.PENANAL5MMYtWY6L
Twitter. I tried avoiding any tweet involving what's happening today and819Please respect copyright.PENANAqO7teHL1JP
also about the picture taken of G-Dragon and I. There were other better819Please respect copyright.PENANAF2eqK11cty
stories to read concerning what's happening around the world right now.819Please respect copyright.PENANAzQ8qFfeS5G
Though I was one person who never really liked watching news concerning819Please respect copyright.PENANAYyQdXj2Vee
current affairs when I was young, reading about them felt quite 819Please respect copyright.PENANAFwLgWePbLe
enjoyable as I grew older. Ya, I'm one heck of a reader and right now, I819Please respect copyright.PENANAuEo0XPMlCY
was a reading a news article posted on BBC. Ya, I know what you're 819Please respect copyright.PENANAJgEORzMJvw
thinking. What's a superstar like me reading about such stuff? I should 819Please respect copyright.PENANALX3PLmeSGl
be concerned about what people are saying about me than reading this 819Please respect copyright.PENANABxoQTJHWF8
boring stuff. One thing I know, was that not everything is supposed to 819Please respect copyright.PENANA0JQKlPNVK2
be all about me.819Please respect copyright.PENANArYMIL2fHul
"Hey, why are you all alone?"819Please respect copyright.PENANA0PdVPzEkN5
I looked up from my phone and I saw Taeyang looking down at me.819Please respect copyright.PENANA9api9TthbN
"Just reading 819Please respect copyright.PENANAXzgarweg3J
something," I said as I pressed the power button to blacken my phone 819Please respect copyright.PENANAJAgxBbCFgo
screen. It would be embarrassing if he and I fought over the phone like 819Please respect copyright.PENANAcUy209T6H2
we did yesterday over the notebook. I didn't want him to see what I was 819Please respect copyright.PENANAlVDoe10xGw
reading. He might just mock me and call me a news person.819Please respect copyright.PENANAZvV1R7zT7n
"Mind if I join you?"819Please respect copyright.PENANADP7dtKncSp
"Yes, please," I said as I patted on the leather couch inviting him to sit.819Please respect copyright.PENANAUl3XAKbnSb
"You look at ease this 819Please respect copyright.PENANAEbhWE3110t
time around," said Taeyang as he sat next to me. "Zoey told us that you 819Please respect copyright.PENANAaqOM6goplW
were acting paranoid about the surprise this morning."819Please respect copyright.PENANAZQhfswtYtB
"Can Zoey ever keep her 819Please respect copyright.PENANAlLO7SVaef9
mouth shut just for once?" I asked as I gave out a death glare at Zoey 819Please respect copyright.PENANAs7wN6bFipa
across the room. Luckily, she was too preoccupied to even notice. "I 819Please respect copyright.PENANAG6gQCH0Edk
wonder why she hasn't revealed my deepest darkest secrets yet."819Please respect copyright.PENANAZCZcAEl1Mg
"Because she's your best friend."819Please respect copyright.PENANAEPuczRiOrW
"Ya, but she wasn't 819Please respect copyright.PENANAp96Od4IeiH
supposed to bring that up. I know I didn't tell her to, but there is a 819Please respect copyright.PENANAVQSLnDAmU6
time to talk about such things and she chose wrongly."819Please respect copyright.PENANAmznAJr3bqZ
"It was just a slip of the tongue."819Please respect copyright.PENANAhJXiDc1ysp
"For Zoey, there is nothing like the slip of the tongue. You should already know that by now."819Please respect copyright.PENANADVVxuG9u99
"I guess you're right. But why think too much about the surprise?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAeCDTdtpAvQ
"Maybe it's because-" I 819Please respect copyright.PENANAp7DV0DkhaN
paused. "Why do I have to tell you? I bet you already know since Zoey 819Please respect copyright.PENANAY6Q2G32kFB
told you that I was being paranoid. Which, as a matter of fact, I'm 819Please respect copyright.PENANAx6Kd3yY6F1
not."819Please respect copyright.PENANAFEs6N7MUxx
Taeyang chuckled and said, "I know you're not paranoid, Sam. Let's change the subject."819Please respect copyright.PENANAY9Bwy383cl
"Thank you," I said as I stared up at the ceiling feeling relieved.819Please respect copyright.PENANAm8wWKdBrlE
"What's up with you and GD?" Taeyang asked with a serious look on his face.819Please respect copyright.PENANABAYR8ra7LA
"Pfft! What are you talking about, Tae?" I asked as I twirled a strand of my hair.819Please respect copyright.PENANAoyBU27RrAy
"Sam, you're twirling your hair. What aren't you telling me?819Please respect copyright.PENANA4FSKdYdDlX
Dang it! Taeyang was just too good. How did had he known that something was wrong between G-Dragon and I?819Please respect copyright.PENANAomPRDpp0YA
"How....do you...I mean..." I stammered trying to find the right words. "Why do you ask?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAAOu3Ej1zRj
"Because I know G-Dragon and I could tell he has been giving you the silent treatment today. Did you two argue?"819Please respect copyright.PENANArYcZoqbrUm
"No, we didn't."819Please respect copyright.PENANAxpA6A9AffF
"Then why isn't he talking to you?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAJA6cyaXZq0
"I...eh...I don't know." I kept on twirling my hair. "Why don't you ask him?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAuFd1fTe1Ns
"I know he won't tell me anything. I didn't even try to bring it up. So I came to you."819Please respect copyright.PENANAyI7zGuoTNQ
Really? This cannot be 819Please respect copyright.PENANAE9ddI1dG3D
happening! What was I going to say? I couldn't lie to Taeyang. And if he819Please respect copyright.PENANAs1kIVVQKZd
could have noticed that something was wrong, it wouldn't be long until 819Please respect copyright.PENANAzTU2K3wFiW
the others found out too. But it looked like I had no choice.819Please respect copyright.PENANAGzFL5IVITA
"Aren't you going to tell me, Sam?" Taeyang asked, this time, bringing me back from my thoughts.819Please respect copyright.PENANATYw5KYAJhb
"Now you're the one 819Please respect copyright.PENANAwzJFpykBhy
being paranoid," I said. I wasn't twirling my hair this time around. 819Please respect copyright.PENANAOKWdq15DSc
That's what gave me away the first time. It wasn't the right time to 819Please respect copyright.PENANAdexyjIj0W6
tell Taeyang. Not yet. Not when we were about to meet our fans. That 819Please respect copyright.PENANAa8z2v68Edv
would be crazy.819Please respect copyright.PENANA7PQ0uS2RGV
"What do you mean?" 819Please respect copyright.PENANAU3WRteKreM
Taeyang looked confused. Oh, no. I shouldn't have started the 819Please respect copyright.PENANABIfkt9yQTh
conversation like this. I had to figure out what to say next. And fast!819Please respect copyright.PENANAvWSZRkmEp4
"G-Dragon and I aren't 819Please respect copyright.PENANAi2ezLbyl6G
arguing. We just had a little bit of a misunderstanding when it came to 819Please respect copyright.PENANArL4JJ4ZYsD
the lyrics for the song. That's all."819Please respect copyright.PENANArh8AXFyeMQ
What was I saying? 819Please respect copyright.PENANAx6Lq0H1ICl
G-Dragon and I barely worked on the song at all yesterday. I hope 819Please respect copyright.PENANAbSStDeyGeA
Taeyang was buying this. He might not ask GD about what I've just told 819Please respect copyright.PENANAalZJOQwjPh
him, but I was really hoping he wouldn't tell the others either.819Please respect copyright.PENANA3VhCYeszBS
"Why? He didn't like your lyrics?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAIl60lSgLWo
"The first two lines 819Please respect copyright.PENANAi86RCmS6jF
were okay," I continued to lie. "But as we continued, we had a little 819Please respect copyright.PENANAVKpK6kedns
bit of a conflict here and there. It's nothing that serious."819Please respect copyright.PENANAYO7mDYhGFE
"Then why isn't he talking to you?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAjyI5ud3jT9
"I don't know." I 819Please respect copyright.PENANACVECO5usRC
shrugged. "Some of us just wake up on the wrong side of the bed and we 819Please respect copyright.PENANAaqGJVrZ9Cl
don't tend to talk to some people. I didn't want to tell you earlier 819Please respect copyright.PENANA5l8Bfd79CL
since I noticed his behaviour from the beginning. Maybe it's in some way819Please respect copyright.PENANAud782IjAh6
related to that. I don't know."819Please respect copyright.PENANAx1tzbbuPx1
I hope the last bits of 819Please respect copyright.PENANAu9XjD9Ydoa
my sentence would make Taeyang believe my lie. And I hoped he wouldn't 819Please respect copyright.PENANAnON6OiV16y
ask me any further. I still couldn't tell him that his best friend 819Please respect copyright.PENANAP7kjsrOVBB
despite looking so sober yesterday, came drunk. It wouldn't feel right, 819Please respect copyright.PENANAtRmUmGLn4n
especially for G-Dragon. It somehow wasn't clearly his fault that he 819Please respect copyright.PENANAPVECXVakgu
came in that way. I was to blame for it too.819Please respect copyright.PENANAAzG1efiJBO
"Oh. I thought the two 819Please respect copyright.PENANAitKGJRSBkK
of you were still not talking to each other because of that previous 819Please respect copyright.PENANARGzDROxMIg
argument about all of us working on the lyrics together."819Please respect copyright.PENANAOg1w8UkCxr
All I could do was put 819Please respect copyright.PENANALTZJKypaaZ
up a fake smile to assure Tae that it wasn't about that. I hated lying 819Please respect copyright.PENANAzlYyBV2aw6
to him and I couldn't tell him that apart from my stupid idea about 819Please respect copyright.PENANAqJGydfmypK
working on the lyrics, there was another reason why G-Dragon was still 819Please respect copyright.PENANA4oiFMjSo4P
mad at me. Taeyang quickly changed the topic and I was glad that I could819Please respect copyright.PENANA89h4biUkFq
finally get a breather.819Please respect copyright.PENANAP231D7iz4u
It was fifteen minutes 819Please respect copyright.PENANA4zIox3DCyl
till the event and soon the makeup artists came into the room to get us 819Please respect copyright.PENANAlsbIPWu4fV
ready. We were remaining with five more minutes and we were quickly told819Please respect copyright.PENANAAWZDe8CIv4
that it was time to go and that the security would escort us up on 819Please respect copyright.PENANAW0qtU1t5I8
stage.819Please respect copyright.PENANARlKnToEKOb
"OMG, guys! Who's ready for this!" Zoey asked as she rubbed her hands and bounced on her feet nervously.819Please respect copyright.PENANAc4FOaoIyBY
"Not me," said Daniel. "I'm actually terrified."819Please respect copyright.PENANAIXfHbpx6F8
"Please, it's not like the people out there don't like you," I said. "They are our fans for a reason."819Please respect copyright.PENANAqiS9mbIQdd
"Come on, we better get going," said Seungri. "This is going to be exciting."819Please respect copyright.PENANAEtFI0RSb6V
"Tell me about it," I muttered to myself. Luckily no one heard, not even Taeyang who stood next to me.819Please respect copyright.PENANApVYa7yoPnR
We started filing out of819Please respect copyright.PENANA5nkZmMb4vV
the room and I was the last one. Just before I took a further step out 819Please respect copyright.PENANA7DoKQTGxpv
of the door, Collins came and stood right in front of me. That’s weird. I819Please respect copyright.PENANAjveeqYcKG4
hadn't even noticed him coming in the hallway and the others were 819Please respect copyright.PENANALuqP6opKWc
leaving me behind, not one of them giving a backward glance.819Please respect copyright.PENANAysWUiekHVn
"What's going on, 819Please respect copyright.PENANAryMdo2ZExR
Collins?" I asked as I looked past his shoulder hoping to see if the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAOaQmghhk7a
others had noticed and were waiting along the hallway, but nothing. They819Please respect copyright.PENANAl1njk7T5PD
had disappeared round a corner.819Please respect copyright.PENANActj5sBhXst
"Get inside, Sam," was all Collins said to me, motioning me with his head to go back in the room.819Please respect copyright.PENANA0IBh6R5IX4
I noticed his tone was 819Please respect copyright.PENANAXZfj01Abfr
serious and without my eyes leaving his face, I took a few steps back 819Please respect copyright.PENANAjO8Dj53H0S
into the room. Collins then came in and Yang Hyun-suk quickly followed 819Please respect copyright.PENANA4p1o9yUTEp
behind him. This was strange. I hadn't noticed Yang Hyun-suk in the hall819Please respect copyright.PENANAe6KKNbHctN
either. This sent weird vibes to my brain and I knew something was up. 819Please respect copyright.PENANAUK0NlpqM9W
The two managers looked at me with serious looks on their faces. I 819Please respect copyright.PENANA2ulTbOsmOd
figured I might have done something wrong for them to want to talk to me819Please respect copyright.PENANASeLFB4kqqE
alone. But what was it then? It can't be related to G-Dragon and I 819Please respect copyright.PENANAYmPA5wYkPB
arguing the other day.819Please respect copyright.PENANAC1P2SnNUAc
No. I ruled that out 819Please respect copyright.PENANALCI5hB79bU
immediately. They possibly couldn't have known all that. I trusted Lee 819Please respect copyright.PENANAxyOKQay1lX
didn't say anything. But why hold me up alone in the room if I wasn't in819Please respect copyright.PENANAHz5d6JBmKz
trouble?819Please respect copyright.PENANAiyEhrKH9M3
"May I ask what's going on here?" I asked. "I'm I in some kind of trouble?"819Please respect copyright.PENANATqWAVFKTAf
"No, you're not, Sam," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We wanted you to stay behind for another reason."819Please respect copyright.PENANA7QQyp32YNc
Phew! I wasn't in trouble then. "May I kindly ask why?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAEe8WR47EuE
"It's about the surprise."819Please respect copyright.PENANAhafnX1YSbs
I thought I felt 819Please respect copyright.PENANAT00CWALFix
something in my brain shatter like glass. I knew the surprise had to do 819Please respect copyright.PENANA08q28qUltv
with me. I knew it! I knew it! I KNEW IT!819Please respect copyright.PENANA4DQ3f36nHK
"Huh...." I scratched my head, trying to look confused in front the managers. "So what's about the surprise?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAT1o2Y0V4y4
Before they could say 819Please respect copyright.PENANA6Ioq5pwUKz
anything, Lee came in the room since the door already stood ajar. She 819Please respect copyright.PENANATa4Ti2Ovuc
had a big wide box in her hands. Was this the surprise? And why were 819Please respect copyright.PENANA9XqFM62K7d
they giving it to me? I thought the surprise was something for the whole819Please respect copyright.PENANA3bnQpuVtEd
world to see. What was going on here?819Please respect copyright.PENANAM1Wt7ycrbE
"Wait, what's that?" I asked as I pointed at the box, while I faced the managers.819Please respect copyright.PENANAe26piPgNLV
"That, Sam," said Collins as he looked at the box, "is the surprise."819Please respect copyright.PENANAPDlSaB7qRW
My mouth fell open and I819Please respect copyright.PENANApbwLdlnaDE
had no words. What was in there? I looked at Lee to see if she could 819Please respect copyright.PENANA4DQgzf2NtY
give me a hint or something, but all she gave me was an apologetic look.819Please respect copyright.PENANANuV9YZgzo1
I didn’t like this at all.819Please respect copyright.PENANAg1X1HMTNVE
"You can open the box 819Please respect copyright.PENANAGc48BlBNOR
now, Lee," said Collins, as he put his hands in his pockets. He had a 819Please respect copyright.PENANAWH5r6rZ28O
little smile on his face, including Yang Hyun-suk. I slowly turned away 819Please respect copyright.PENANA8GSxz3VVA7
from my managers and I looked at Lee and the box. She slowly opened the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAdQzmge8kS5
lid and dropped it to the floor. What I saw in the box gave me 819Please respect copyright.PENANAvVVfrR8pXz
goosebumps.819Please respect copyright.PENANAqF1dWAtkWv
"So? What do you think?" Yang Hyun-suk asked, this time, with a grin.819Please respect copyright.PENANAwCpOyb4Gvp
I still had no words. I 819Please respect copyright.PENANA1LGvUIm2GA
was as shocked as before and I was startled just by looking at what was 819Please respect copyright.PENANAQAQeRnAXzX
in the box. Now I understood when Lee said the surprise was for the 819Please respect copyright.PENANA2kxAwtgyt1
whole world to see.819Please respect copyright.PENANAD8AbWk3TEF
I looked at the managers, then at Lee and lastly at what was inside the box.819Please respect copyright.PENANA4Gt2InqH22
I am so dead!819Please respect copyright.PENANASwwVJ9vGSW
***819Please respect copyright.PENANAd9DpmWKjJB
I couldn't help myself 819Please respect copyright.PENANAyqguf2rlGf
from scratching as I walked along the hall with a body guard ahead and 819Please respect copyright.PENANAu4RvueManH
the managers and Lee behind me. As we were heading backstage, I could 819Please respect copyright.PENANAkAQSLAgECW
hear the sound of the fans in the huge hall and I was pretty nervous. Oh819Please respect copyright.PENANAlhsoazoJIz
gosh! I couldn't even wipe my sweaty palms. This was just great!819Please respect copyright.PENANAFsBha5qPKv
When we were backstage, 819Please respect copyright.PENANAVFDc6tKMiY
my heart continued to beat with each dying minute. The fans were 819Please respect copyright.PENANAOL69DE1mtV
probably waiting since the event couldn't start without me. I bet they 819Please respect copyright.PENANAbQF0ilNJCd
were wondering where I was and probably my group members too.819Please respect copyright.PENANAsxxJ487GEI
I stood behind the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAs1gHHSTe88
curtain and I pulled it away a bit to see what was going on. There was a819Please respect copyright.PENANAZRm5VVA1Fo
long table on stage and all my group members and BigBang members sat 819Please respect copyright.PENANAjvrSc2X4n7
there waiting for me. They looked to be talking amongst themselves, 819Please respect copyright.PENANAAMDAlznzQj
obviously wondering why I took so long. I looked to the side of the fans819Please respect copyright.PENANAnfQNOikYpL
and I could see the place was fully packed.819Please respect copyright.PENANAz1wvj7iUwI
There was noise from the819Please respect copyright.PENANAPToiWIIwHs
fans and there were camera lights everywhere as well. I looked back at 819Please respect copyright.PENANAb0VeGuGLsh
the table on stage and I saw that one seat was vacant right next to 819Please respect copyright.PENANAuKEGUBmEwk
G-Dragon. Seriously?819Please respect copyright.PENANA0tQD79niQV
To be honest, I didn't want to sit next to him. Not when he was giving me the silent treatment.819Please respect copyright.PENANAtY7VqIPxES
"Hey, are you ready?" 819Please respect copyright.PENANAwgBUkb3Ei9
Lee startled me from behind and I almost jumped, slightly moving the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAlGqRdvCmOJ
curtain. I looked at her gave her a frown.819Please respect copyright.PENANAeV9efYSAW7
"Don't scare me like that!" I said silently as I held my forehead.819Please respect copyright.PENANAG8HK1fBPTf
"Sorry. Just wanted to see if you're alright."819Please respect copyright.PENANAkBtVHsuFcJ
"Alright? I'm not alright! I've changed my mind. I'm not going on stage."819Please respect copyright.PENANAtpyC63be1T
"You can't do that and you know it. You have to go out there or else the fans will start to worry."819Please respect copyright.PENANALfiNvmV3BX
She was right. The fans might not worry but turn their worry into a rampage.819Please respect copyright.PENANAbJTpl7jZsl
I sighed in frustration. When I go on stage, I felt things were going to be different.819Please respect copyright.PENANAf2gj5V6YSw
"Sam," came Collins as he walked up to me. "You're up. You've to go on stage."819Please respect copyright.PENANAMbOIxK4gkc
I shook my head at him. I wasn't going on stage. No way!819Please respect copyright.PENANA21k0MihaW2
"I can't go on stage," I said. "You can kill me if you want to, but I'm not going!"819Please respect copyright.PENANAPDjmK2HSnm
"Stop acting like a 819Please respect copyright.PENANAqS0n8aBR3K
child, Sam," said Yang Hyun-suk as he came to join us. "You very well 819Please respect copyright.PENANAFUO5LNNUlH
know the show must go on. Now do us all a favour and go."819Please respect copyright.PENANAjlyhgDc8eC
"Don't do it for us," said Lee. "Do it for the fans."819Please respect copyright.PENANA13BdC0yCwj
I never liked such kind 819Please respect copyright.PENANA1OTpxAIzJz
of moments when I was told that I should do things for the people who 819Please respect copyright.PENANAFbywygESBa
are most important. She was right though. I was here for the fans and 819Please respect copyright.PENANArpiSY2xptl
nothing else.819Please respect copyright.PENANAEeeysjjtfU
I felt the back of my 819Please respect copyright.PENANA9Hi7Bz6xty
leg itch and all I could do was scratch it with my other foot. I slowly 819Please respect copyright.PENANA2cIS1bGpU1
nodded my head at Lee and the two managers. I turned to face the curtain819Please respect copyright.PENANATBAl9F56Gr
and took in a huge deep breath, trying to calm myself. But I was 819Please respect copyright.PENANAlrtuNWTTCs
quickly disturbed by snickering behind me and I quickly looked behind 819Please respect copyright.PENANAgJI4tRIAVW
again.819Please respect copyright.PENANAid8r20dZx9
"Seriously, I told you not to laugh at me!" I whispered angrily at Lee.819Please respect copyright.PENANALqME3qtT1F
"Sorry, can't help 819Please respect copyright.PENANALfX9d89JfE
myself," said Lee. The urge to laugh still showed on her face and it can819Please respect copyright.PENANAopackvScR0
clearly show on the managers' faces too.819Please respect copyright.PENANAQocZTeJEJI
"This isn't over yet," I said. "I'll get you for this one day, you will see."819Please respect copyright.PENANALp80NGADRv
Since I was so pissed, I819Please respect copyright.PENANAXA2Qbjq5nx
quickly withdrew the curtain and I went out on stage without thinking 819Please respect copyright.PENANAnwAhV6tAH5
twice. I suddenly felt the change of scenery and I stood right there on 819Please respect copyright.PENANAafVJa783YF
stage, stuck. I couldn't breathe and I couldn't move. I bet everyone in 819Please respect copyright.PENANAGR7qppmoaB
the hall was feeling the same way too. I looked out at the audience and 819Please respect copyright.PENANA2XsXy4bnFj
they were all quiet. Obviously stunned at what they were seeing right 819Please respect copyright.PENANAY6dFaU9vwq
now and trying to take it all in. I also felt stunned and gosh! I was 819Please respect copyright.PENANAxqDzQpafwa
trying my best not to scratch my itching butt right now in front of 819Please respect copyright.PENANA2FkzfD7KG4
everyone because all this was too embarrassing already.819Please respect copyright.PENANAxrCaSAsqGD
I looked beside me on 819Please respect copyright.PENANAK7Pfqbsozf
stage and the other Toxins and also BigBang were also stunned, with 819Please respect copyright.PENANA8L2cgac6Zx
their mouths open and silent as they looked at me. My head felt hot and 819Please respect copyright.PENANA5wyBp706lN
itchy and I couldn't reach out for my scalp to scratch.819Please respect copyright.PENANAMBsWMwtHTR
This moment felt like 819Please respect copyright.PENANAWXUAvs8xSG
forever when I knew I had only been on the stage for like thirty 819Please respect copyright.PENANA0lerrtv3w3
seconds. I quickly looked at my feet which, I couldn't see anymore, 819Please respect copyright.PENANAmC4thfY49X
until a scream from a fan out there in the hall made me jump in fright. 819Please respect copyright.PENANAmYBILVTRNE
Soon afterwards, all the fans started screaming in delight and they all 819Please respect copyright.PENANAFoSGrv8RO6
stood up for me cheering and calling out my name.819Please respect copyright.PENANAVu82DJZOC9
For a moment, I felt 819Please respect copyright.PENANAvQDZrjdFjl
kind of shocked until I realised they weren't making fun of me but were 819Please respect copyright.PENANAJeT9fKgzZk
really delighted. I put up a smile and waved at the fans. I walked up 819Please respect copyright.PENANAhMfOwcCWjJ
further to the centre stage where the others were. I continued to wave 819Please respect copyright.PENANAHsVZSNzHLC
and I also blew out kisses to them. That just made them even wilder and I819Please respect copyright.PENANAnUXUl44M0g
smiled. What couldn't be better than seeing happy fans?819Please respect copyright.PENANAQQ36gv4vO9
I took a bow this time, 819Please respect copyright.PENANAiWmxsD4NYm
the way Koreans do as a sign of respect. That almost caused an uproar in819Please respect copyright.PENANA50VNvh6soz
the hall. All I was doing was thanking my fans out there for their 819Please respect copyright.PENANAazo97HV1En
support. I bet that sent a smile on Yang Hyun-suk's face. I totally 819Please respect copyright.PENANAcL9PANFrpj
nailed it.819Please respect copyright.PENANAVykzqg3dsP
Through out all the 819Please respect copyright.PENANARmYFrxFPmo
screaming from the fans, I heard Zoey behind me and I saw her quickly 819Please respect copyright.PENANAHHwOStl2qQ
rush from behind the table to come and hug me. The fans loved it and 819Please respect copyright.PENANAzMM2bsMw97
they continued to cheer some more.819Please respect copyright.PENANAADR1oqv4mH
"OMG! Sam! You look so 819Please respect copyright.PENANA4BIJtOpg4S
adorable!" Zoey shouted so I could hear her among the screaming fans. 819Please respect copyright.PENANAwbDQxMa8v3
She stopped hugging me and looked at me from head to toe.819Please respect copyright.PENANAkv3pxIlbR0
"Thanks," I said with a smile. "Apparently, this was the surprise our managers were talking about."819Please respect copyright.PENANA8kbocAsvMk
Zoey pinched my cheeks 819Please respect copyright.PENANARYxNBc8jIB
as though I was a little baby. Seungri also came up to me and instead of819Please respect copyright.PENANAZPCZyrVQ78
receiving a hug, he pecked me on the cheek. That almost sent the fans 819Please respect copyright.PENANAYukZpxpNxr
dying, including me since I couldn't stop blushing.819Please respect copyright.PENANAFhHfwA8olc
"Loving the new outfit, Sam," said Seungri. "Looks like you aren't cute as a black cat but also as Pikachu too."819Please respect copyright.PENANA5IIKFtcXXD
I looked down at myself 819Please respect copyright.PENANAcJSVB3X6GN
and I couldn't tell if I really did look cute in this Pikachu costume. I819Please respect copyright.PENANA37O0GMM1yf
still felt hot and itchy in it despite it being new. I knew I looked 819Please respect copyright.PENANASsisbvXL7x
ridiculous and I had objected to wearing it the first time I saw it.819Please respect copyright.PENANAZxfv7eLmjG
"Thanks, Seungri," I said with a smile.819Please respect copyright.PENANAEp5ctlyQ9K
Zoey still couldn't stop819Please respect copyright.PENANAHwKB78bKCx
looking at me with an adoring smile. Obviously still trying to take in 819Please respect copyright.PENANAsRkG80FzF1
what she was seeing. The others soon came from behind the table to hug 819Please respect copyright.PENANA4XpqXnd0sG
me. They all made funny cute jokes about my Pikachu outfit.819Please respect copyright.PENANAwPb0kkMvsP
TOP and Taeyang even 819Please respect copyright.PENANAP4OtXi7tic
made fun of my tail, that looked like a symbol of a power charge, by 819Please respect copyright.PENANAabnGLCFxzW
pulling at it a few times. I quickly held the tail in my hand giving 819Please respect copyright.PENANAFO0DqbSRfd
them an angry stare. I had to admit, I felt kind of possessive over my 819Please respect copyright.PENANAl4kCqK1MvJ
tail and the fans couldn't help but laugh at the sudden show of comedy 819Please respect copyright.PENANAD2Q5ZBLXkS
on stage.819Please respect copyright.PENANAn8NChaZcyY
Christine and Daniel 819Please respect copyright.PENANALDF5XnkzEe
also made fun of the ears and they tagged at them as well. The others 819Please respect copyright.PENANA2hE2BgkEix
were having so much fun as they continued to smile at me and pass out 819Please respect copyright.PENANArtogY6z8a1
silly comments.819Please respect copyright.PENANARhOPKUVLcL
I was so caught up with 819Please respect copyright.PENANAQ1cpUybsmC
their attention, I completely forgot about G-Dragon. I turned to look at819Please respect copyright.PENANA1XX2LJ1VdX
the table and he wasn't there. That was strange. Where was he?819Please respect copyright.PENANAEmqhccDvfR
I soon realised that he 819Please respect copyright.PENANAxlC88ZATpq
had just turned round the table and was coming up to me. I felt my face 819Please respect copyright.PENANAR0K225RKrs
grow hot at his sudden approach and he looked kind of serious. Was he 819Please respect copyright.PENANAZrV7PcbDaE
going to make fun of me? Well, a lot of people probably have but I don't819Please respect copyright.PENANAYf76jW9wtl
know what G-Dragon was going to say.819Please respect copyright.PENANAr1dN6pt7pe
I absent mindley 819Please respect copyright.PENANAGKdYdbeM5P
scratched my nose. My fingers weren't so much in use right now under the819Please respect copyright.PENANA3iMMWxGNIV
costume so it was kind of difficult to scratch. I heard an "Awww!" in 819Please respect copyright.PENANAKgo9pbDB86
the crowd. The fans must have obviously found that cute. Even Christine 819Please respect copyright.PENANAtIE2FYYi2L
and Zoey couldn't help but find it cute too.819Please respect copyright.PENANAz0QQ286Slb
"Awww, so cute," said Christine.819Please respect copyright.PENANAMZYgSCvoCo
"Do that again so that I819Please respect copyright.PENANAfRRYgywbAG
can put that on video and send it to mum," said Mike who already had 819Please respect copyright.PENANAQWohpuSExx
his phone out and taking a video. "Mum is going to love it."819Please respect copyright.PENANA2Bt1UwtdS2
That to me wasn't all 819Please respect copyright.PENANAsSajbabqGP
that important right now. What was worrying me was G-Dragon as he got 819Please respect copyright.PENANAUcBetYe2Gj
closer. I gulped and I couldn't breathe. I felt like running off the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAIXV0PrrgGQ
stage and not only will that paint a funny picture, people will start to819Please respect copyright.PENANAAWKR04VcnH
wonder what's going on. I stood still like a statue, ready for the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAGG4J3wqjKK
worst.819Please respect copyright.PENANAldbUN1ikws
As GD stood in front of 819Please respect copyright.PENANAvU5288SHSu
me, I heard Taeyang speak through the mic. Where did the microphone even819Please respect copyright.PENANArtOc8cHbNg
come from? I wasn't going to ask because what Taeyang said almost made 819Please respect copyright.PENANAN3gUHqchiR
me drop dead.819Please respect copyright.PENANAidUdOycoyT
"So, GD? What do you think of Sam's outfit? Does she look pretty?"819Please respect copyright.PENANApRawl5ohkl
I looked and felt 819Please respect copyright.PENANAAiezEi8TNZ
ridiculous if he'd asked me. Taeyang first asked in English then in 819Please respect copyright.PENANAa3c5woD383
Korean. I couldn't stop the itchiness that now crept up my body, this 819Please respect copyright.PENANAx0O4mm0D6u
time in full force.819Please respect copyright.PENANA5YsxgiFOSa
I continued to look at 819Please respect copyright.PENANAKp14xTxdTB
G-Dragon, who was still not giving me a hint of a smile. He was really 819Please respect copyright.PENANAvEpJEiBJpj
making this hard for me. He should at least smile a little. G-Dragon 819Please respect copyright.PENANAP5iksjEu54
took the mic from Taeyang and my heart continued to beat even faster. I 819Please respect copyright.PENANA9xxznsYWk1
wanted to cover my face for the hammer blow I was about to receive, but 819Please respect copyright.PENANAvjJMg5n50Z
that would only show that I was being shy in front of him. GD brought 819Please respect copyright.PENANAq9qTOvia9Y
the mic to his lips and I balled up my sweaty hands into fists.819Please respect copyright.PENANANipHBZRwJe
"She looks really 819Please respect copyright.PENANAYXgRHGY14F
ridiculous," said G-Dragon. Well, at least he was being honest but it 819Please respect copyright.PENANAGq4c8GkLNB
still came out as a shocker for me, and also the fans too.819Please respect copyright.PENANAEpjphxklgM
I felt my heart ache a little and my eyes starting to tear up. Was that pain I felt?819Please respect copyright.PENANAFzmldX80fF
"But she looks so darn 819Please respect copyright.PENANATaHN0ZlFEV
cute at the same time," this time G-Dragon put up a smile and he pinched819Please respect copyright.PENANABr4tPKzmte
my cheeks just like the others had done earlier. I thought he was going819Please respect copyright.PENANArVQaMUYzk4
to pinch me real hard, but he didn't. I tried to hold back my smile as I819Please respect copyright.PENANAQe4X40ufON
blushed.819Please respect copyright.PENANAhY5STYs0U4
Afterwards, G-Dragon did819Please respect copyright.PENANAMYhsvtoYHh
the unexpected. He hugged me! And this sent the fans cheering so loudly819Please respect copyright.PENANAuiS9albJ2v
I thought my eardrums might just burst. I was shocked by his gesture. I819Please respect copyright.PENANA7rEygJZIfb
thought pinching my cheeks was enough, but he had to hug me too.819Please respect copyright.PENANA58TudUunvi
When I looked at Taeyang819Please respect copyright.PENANAKixbYyhW1t
who stood behind his best friend, I saw him smile widely. I hoped that 819Please respect copyright.PENANAvbL9VNDMhB
settled his doubts of G-Dragon not talking to me. When G-Dragon pulled 819Please respect copyright.PENANAlLCYkC68wS
away from hugging me, he took me by the hand and led me at the back of 819Please respect copyright.PENANAMxbXqOczym
the table where we took our seats. Again, I wasn't really expecting 819Please respect copyright.PENANA8GF1FtMldC
that.819Please respect copyright.PENANAPd6IqkcAUj
The others soon came to 819Please respect copyright.PENANA7jKDGfRDjj
join us at table. It was time for the fan signing event to begin. I 819Please respect copyright.PENANA8Lq5MBwRwK
thought that time would never come given that ever since I wore this 819Please respect copyright.PENANAbKeQH4VZCM
Pikachu costume, time seemed to have slowed down a little.819Please respect copyright.PENANAUjPqVSfHDl
Daesung and Zoey took 819Please respect copyright.PENANAWJNKPhvZKz
the floor by giving out the opening remarks. Soon afterwards, the fans 819Please respect copyright.PENANAIYZykuVBPu
signing event begun. There was a line of fans down the stage and the 819Please respect copyright.PENANA7wlUBWzoTu
guards only selected ten fans to come up.819Please respect copyright.PENANAFbqwTmBIQE
At first, I was nervous 819Please respect copyright.PENANAdTFAZRHf5S
when a fan girl came to sit down in front of me. But when she gave me a 819Please respect copyright.PENANA0oPFut4T9w
cute smile, that kind of subsided my fear for a while and I also gave 819Please respect copyright.PENANAxpWH1PL0b8
her a smile. We started to talk a little and she shyly gave out cute 819Please respect copyright.PENANAqRPoD7REwS
compliments about my Pikachu costume. It actually felt kind of nice to 819Please respect copyright.PENANA1JrEHkFHKv
talk to her and in the end, she ended up giving me a handmade bracelet. 819Please respect copyright.PENANABqnuQfEx8c
It was really beautiful and it looked like she put all her hard work 819Please respect copyright.PENANAquEWNEXnvO
into and I loved it. I made her put the bracelet on my wrist. Well, my 819Please respect copyright.PENANALv8Tw7ykJy
Pikachu wrist. Yang Hyun-suk did say the fans might just give us gifts 819Please respect copyright.PENANAU2ZLI7F3gS
which sounded a little awkward at first but it really made a pretty nice819Please respect copyright.PENANAh5m99R0Z9R
gesture. After the fan put a bracelet around me, I gave her a high-five819Please respect copyright.PENANAsE1u0NKAdM
and signed an autograph for her.819Please respect copyright.PENANAraKva6Fz5o
The fan signing event 819Please respect copyright.PENANAdY7Cejvz6B
felt like forever. Within an hour, I had tons of gifts from the fans. I 819Please respect copyright.PENANA15zvcXmbAc
also had a crown of flowers on top of my head and so did the rest of my 819Please respect copyright.PENANAAQgZ90MGbf
group members and BigBang.819Please respect copyright.PENANAlpYzzTEXK5
We obviously looked cute819Please respect copyright.PENANA6PjZmtF8yT
with those crowns over our heads. I obviously looked ten times cuter 819Please respect copyright.PENANAzeyuTqwtLk
with my Pikachu costume on. No need to brag or anything. After yet 819Please respect copyright.PENANA30tU6BWSrT
another hour, the fan signing event was over. I really had a fun time 819Please respect copyright.PENANAH4VjBhk7Il
and I didn't feel tired at all. I bet the fans who couldn't make it for 819Please respect copyright.PENANAc3ZTKGj9Tb
the event were probably watching the videos online and I knew they felt 819Please respect copyright.PENANArD4YnGvMCZ
like they were here too.819Please respect copyright.PENANAyvo6OVxw3l
G-Dragon gave the 819Please respect copyright.PENANA1RcmExHreu
closing remarks. It was soon time to leave the stage and there was a 819Please respect copyright.PENANAH4ZZS05fi3
sigh of disapproval from the fans. It was obvious they didn't want us to819Please respect copyright.PENANAgoByddisLm
leave but we had to. I also didn't want to leave. They were such 819Please respect copyright.PENANABvmMtliePg
amazing fans and getting to interact with them was really fun. I was 819Please respect copyright.PENANAkt7PtN3uEs
hoping to do it again soon, but I realised that we weren't going to stay819Please respect copyright.PENANAd7P84FXdO9
for long.819Please respect copyright.PENANAQzLAP4DdJ8
Before we left the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAnGs97O2KQG
stage, we all took the centre stage and we bowed to the fans. I hope 819Please respect copyright.PENANAS9PxbHqtGE
that made quite a happy ending for them. The fans cheered and clapped. 819Please respect copyright.PENANAXwmWnUX7SR
They also started to chant the words "The Toxins" and "BigBang". It was 819Please respect copyright.PENANAy4nX0snOWM
amazing and I couldn't help but smile.819Please respect copyright.PENANACgekfsFQkJ
We soon left the stage and we found our managers and Lee. "Well, that went well, didn't it?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.819Please respect copyright.PENANAzs35BgHP5y
"It sure did with our 819Please respect copyright.PENANAA5IdqIjKVe
Pikachu here," said TOP as he raised his hand to try and tug at the ears819Please respect copyright.PENANAyfJyAGOjRh
of my costume. I quickly slapped his hand away in annoyance and 819Please respect copyright.PENANAlLD47Qmhgh
everyone laughed.819Please respect copyright.PENANABQEMQNkL5d
"We should have believed819Please respect copyright.PENANAdLyOnu1a4T
Sam when she told us that the surprise was all about her," said Mike. 819Please respect copyright.PENANABKDcOQHTm3
"Who knew she would end up wearing this cute costume?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAXUYorr21gt
I slapped my face in 819Please respect copyright.PENANAJodPCdl9R3
frustration as the two managers now looked at me with shocked looks on 819Please respect copyright.PENANA4HGtYrNlNH
their faces. Mike shouldn't have brought that up in front of them.819Please respect copyright.PENANAitjYSjo8Fi
"How did you know all this?" Collins asked. Then he turned to look at Lee. "Lee?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAlWMNZX7fUc
"Don't look at me," said Lee with her hands up in surrender. "I never told her about the costume."819Please respect copyright.PENANAfruucASkgW
"My gut feeling told me 819Please respect copyright.PENANAUYZ4g9VRZV
that the surprise had to do with me," I explained. "I didn't know it had819Please respect copyright.PENANAW2w30jgcTK
anything to do with the costume."819Please respect copyright.PENANAsrcIIw4Pbp
"And as usual, she was right," said Zoey as she put her hand on my shoulder. "How can we have ever doubted you?"819Please respect copyright.PENANASgFZbdH6lK
"You do that all the time," I answered with my eyebrows raised.819Please respect copyright.PENANAEUxRfQV45w
"Looks like you have one strong gut," said Daesung. "No wonder you trust it more than anything or anyone else."819Please respect copyright.PENANAti4hXUl72A
I smiled at Daesung. 819Please respect copyright.PENANALb1mM2371j
"Ya, I always do," I said this as I patted my tummy. "Speaking of guts, 819Please respect copyright.PENANA1IPitA0tCD
I'm really hungry right now. All I had was water out there and I'm 819Please respect copyright.PENANAnEy8L8uf40
starving."819Please respect copyright.PENANABfFsPELsHB
"Same here," said Daniel.819Please respect copyright.PENANA3hKbqH5aje
"Well, you guys all deserve a feast today, so why don't we all go to the best restaurant in town?" Yang Hyun-suk suggested.819Please respect copyright.PENANAlyyuBaRYaU
"Oh, yes, please!" Christine and Seungri said at the same time.819Please respect copyright.PENANAuIaqASZyG0
"What are we waiting for? Let's go," said Taeyang.819Please respect copyright.PENANA1UjK2nlFCQ
"Wait a minute," said 819Please respect copyright.PENANAMi0it2ySb7
G-Dragon. Everyone paused and turned to look at G-Dragon. "We can't 819Please respect copyright.PENANAyasgMrSsLo
leave without taking a group photo," he said with a smile on his face.819Please respect copyright.PENANA0XHyAq5qKJ
"Ya, I wouldn't like to leave this place without all of us taking a photo," said Zoey. "For memories sake."819Please respect copyright.PENANAqiYfq4dy1H
"Okay, you guys gather around and I'll take the photo," said Yang Hyun-suk.819Please respect copyright.PENANAF1kIRu393e
The two groups gathered 819Please respect copyright.PENANAY1SBi5RnAs
around together and I surprisingly found myself close to G-Dragon, who 819Please respect copyright.PENANAhQxpU10qEr
didn't seem to mind at all. In fact, he looked really happy. Maybe he 819Please respect copyright.PENANAXEMO6ZDIra
was back to his old self again. Well, hopefully. I noticed the time we 819Please respect copyright.PENANAN58peWoM7m
sat down together on stage that he kept on giving me sideway glances and819Please respect copyright.PENANAzRpYE9en3d
smiling. I obviously looked ridiculous in his eyes and I pretended not 819Please respect copyright.PENANACijG1qS2Nu
to notice his glance as I kept on talking to the fans. But all in all, I819Please respect copyright.PENANA4KwjOjmdXj
hoped he would stay like that forever.819Please respect copyright.PENANApoGwYkgkZQ
After taking a few 819Please respect copyright.PENANAyMBMRMgPsu
photos and posing in weird and ridiculous ways, we also took a few 819Please respect copyright.PENANARPV0hc9SHz
photos with Lee and our managers. Soon, almost everyone had their phones819Please respect copyright.PENANA1h0esOfDfH
out to take selfies and group photos. It was so much fun.819Please respect copyright.PENANAIRwFnMXa5g
"Okay, now that we're 819Please respect copyright.PENANAgo6hMLQ343
done, can I please go take out this costume?" I asked. "I don't want to 819Please respect copyright.PENANAmoYZmlRaf1
go to a restaurant looking like this."819Please respect copyright.PENANAsx7GXl3b37
"No, don't take it off," said Mike. "We still need Pikachu around."819Please respect copyright.PENANAn984yPQiui
"But what for? The event is over and I really need to change."819Please respect copyright.PENANANUExYeYV2l
"Just stay in it for a 819Please respect copyright.PENANAOH9GvMxyA0
little while longer," said Seungri. "I bet the fans want to see you in 819Please respect copyright.PENANAMNtwy2DXYo
this the whole day. Besides, you already look too cute to take it off 819Please respect copyright.PENANAQRMXhUf4HI
now."819Please respect copyright.PENANAyE6Tb7NKLx
"Ya, I also agree," said G-Dragon. "The day isn't far from over and we will still need you in that adorable costume."819Please respect copyright.PENANAveSUtWY6YO
Did I hear GD right or 819Please respect copyright.PENANApTe9TpgpJw
did he just say adorable? I blushed like crazy and I thought twice of 819Please respect copyright.PENANAagy13nddbl
keeping it on. But I shook my head and protested some more.819Please respect copyright.PENANAyQtnAE2j1D
"No, guys. I really do need to change. You don't know how itchy this costume is."819Please respect copyright.PENANAYEP6XtEjOZ
"Please, Sam!" Zoey pleaded, giving me the puppy dog eyes. "Come on, Sam," said Taeyang.819Please respect copyright.PENANA5JLv573fPk
Everyone started 819Please respect copyright.PENANAfvOo9uKZfu
taunting me about not taking the costume off. Even Lee and the two 819Please respect copyright.PENANAUXIbDMGLeA
managers joined in. I rolled my eyes and covered my ears, but that 819Please respect copyright.PENANAHAz4tFEO2T
somehow didn't stop their voices from taunting me. I finally gave up.819Please respect copyright.PENANATqgHeY5DrR
"Okay, fine," I said as I819Please respect copyright.PENANAsLv6H3U8pE
raised my hands to silence them. "I'll stay in the costume but let's 819Please respect copyright.PENANA6usXcANyZa
not go to a restaurant. That will be weird."819Please respect copyright.PENANAXx6ARdkaxP
"Okay, then where should we go?" TOP asked.819Please respect copyright.PENANAzHDUsXgObU
"Let's go to some open 819Please respect copyright.PENANA1Q8ueYtZUf
food court or something at the mall," I said. "That will be great and 819Please respect copyright.PENANAiKXETT6qFT
right now, I really need some junk food. Besides, the fans would love to819Please respect copyright.PENANA8cKCNivVQp
see us in the open and interact with us, don't you think?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAdZ1Urkaybh
"That's not such a bad idea," said Yang Hyun-suk. "You really do come up with good ideas."819Please respect copyright.PENANATZI5SPEzBY
"Thanks," I said with a smile. "What are we waiting for? I'm dying of hunger and I'm in need of a burger right now."819Please respect copyright.PENANAijlBpIrtiK
"Okay, then, let's go," said Collins. We followed our managers leaving the backstage and heading out back the way we came.819Please respect copyright.PENANAgZlM03y1x2
I had to excuse myself 819Please respect copyright.PENANAkwOjIkNA4A
from the others when I realised that I had left my phone in the dressing819Please respect copyright.PENANAzQOqjJlZRk
room. When I got to the dressing room, I found my phone on one of the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAfrd7kaT14C
leather seats.819Please respect copyright.PENANA3ewqp6eNsU
When I got my phone, I 819Please respect copyright.PENANANVEzwvvYv7
paused for a second. I felt the hairs at the back of my neck rise. 819Please respect copyright.PENANAIE8yMEPot3
Someone was in the room with me. But who? I dared not to breath or move.819Please respect copyright.PENANADGfN8jcHXV
Was it one of the organising team of the event? No, something felt off 819Please respect copyright.PENANAf1fllY41Nr
and I wasn't liking it at all. Was this person trying to attack me? 819Please respect copyright.PENANATsCEtWsXCH
Well, I hope not.819Please respect copyright.PENANAtoNZDcc8gF
The sound of soft 819Please respect copyright.PENANAN2sNxVzhPi
footfalls filled my ears. I was one good listener and I knew the person 819Please respect copyright.PENANAx7sdyRKXY3
in the room was either trying to creep up on me or was planning to bolt.819Please respect copyright.PENANAX8OADxTveQ
I quickly turned around to catch the person off guard, but I was 819Please respect copyright.PENANA0m7aFHzeaL
already too late.819Please respect copyright.PENANAsVf1aglZng
The person had planned 819Please respect copyright.PENANAunvzxe014v
on bolting and the door swung open. I quickly ran to the door and looked819Please respect copyright.PENANA01xoSXfRRJ
down the hall. There was no one there. Whoever was here was probably 819Please respect copyright.PENANAmERp0AR4MQ
fast enough to make him or herself disappear. The person must have 819Please respect copyright.PENANA5FuwlRs0Wb
hidden behind the door for a good escape. A started to think of the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAW6vX8eXXjB
worst and I remembered what happened on Thursday when I had gone to the 819Please respect copyright.PENANAVMICoAyJB9
park. It was obviously the same person and I had no doubt about it.819Please respect copyright.PENANAjwQjIPmEKj
As I made my way to the exit, I found the others all settled in the car apart from Zoey.819Please respect copyright.PENANAfrJ5CULu9y
"Hey, why aren't you in the car?" I asked.819Please respect copyright.PENANAC2eVYhFGnT
"I was waiting for my Pikachu," said Zoey.819Please respect copyright.PENANA2A2QbIeP4b
"Looks like that's my new nickname," I said.819Please respect copyright.PENANAikXHFYSFcs
"Ya. Hey, are you okay? You look to be somewhere other than here."819Please respect copyright.PENANAZjMNS9lbnj
"No, I'm fine. Um, did you see anyone come out through the exit?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAi3A4zU9Yb8
"No. No one came out there apart from you. Is there something wrong?"819Please respect copyright.PENANAAL3SCflQgr
I thought of what to say819Please respect copyright.PENANAJb84ZJ7cWv
next. But now, wasn't the time to tell Zoey about the stranger. It was 819Please respect copyright.PENANAYLB20YM0Jr
only going to spook her and she would tell the others, obviously. 819Please respect copyright.PENANAIr8Ffg1eSh
Besides, it was best I found out who that mysterious person was myself. 819Please respect copyright.PENANAc6Xzi8lFWn
Right now, everyone seemed to be in a good mood, even G-Dragon. I wasn't819Please respect copyright.PENANA4LJ1SKldLP
going to ruin this now.819Please respect copyright.PENANAiSUBDZulTd
"Forget it, I'm hungry," I said, shaking my head. "Let's go."819Please respect copyright.PENANAepkKtHTZIm
"I thought you were never going to say that," said Zoey.819Please respect copyright.PENANALLtYP4lucj
She put her arm around me and the two of us got into the car with big smiles on our faces.
