Stuck In A K-Pop World: Hitting With A Big Bang (A Black Kitty Series, Book 1) - Chapter 17: Suit

My watch said 10:31 and I hissed in frustration. I was getting really impatient and I felt like I was about to blow a fuse.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUoPqX12HX

I had never been this 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBVaoJjwCs
late in my entire life. Not even when I had my own personal 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfytiowE53
appointments. The others would be wondering why I was so late. And 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmn15eKhkE
trying to explain the reason why, would have them blown away.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp56tuKTFMe

"Sam, are you still there?" Zoey called out to me from our room.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7FZOu83nt

I didn't want to answer. I was quite irritated. But if I didn't, she would start to freak out.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2xNTwCbzo

"Sam!"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjggjeYXZj

I rolled my eyes. "I'm still here, Zoey," I answered.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPKg5q0RcY

Zoey came out of the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6CttOgNWZ
room and came to the lounge where I was seated waiting for her. I was on942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVNAOV06AA
the couch and I looked at her, then back at my watch.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTiGQvMazg

"Did you find what you're looking for?" I asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZuGmOHYI1

"No, I haven't," said Zoey.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0zeYbAh2T

"You've been searching for it all morning," I said as I stood up. "Can we please just go to the studio? We're already late."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSh3nl0hWjV

"No, let me go and check again," Zoey turned around to head back to the room and I groaned so loudly to grab her attention.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CH7FGkWcU

"Zoey, it's just a stud and you have plenty of those like it in your jewellery box."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZdoQ1YvJO

"But those are my favourite studs," said Zoey. "You know they are diamond, right?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsH3v2IGrC

"I know because I bought you those studs for your birthday a year ago."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUdz3tVG7O

"Oh. Ya, I know." Zoey had a look on her face that told me she forgot about that.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxqYXk2xbo

I ignored her and said, 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkH4If8TFtN
"just get another pair of studs or don't put on any at all. For my sake.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgbABvGQB7
And Collins' too. We were supposed to be at the studio at 10."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21g7GgcUp8

"What time is it?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcDBkHzalf

"10:35."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkX72EI6xom

"Wow, time really passes by."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrolzWqipY

"When it comes to you, it does. Come on, let's go."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjfgXjVsAv

"Let me go get my phone."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9jI6qXs7g

Zoey rushed back to the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwATeJfEuh
room and I hoped she wasn't going to get back to looking for her missing942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIiYihmL4l
stud. She sometimes did the opposite of what she had to do. But anyway,942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX45TS5Cm1F
that was Zoey.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE99cG6xiFy

I soon received a 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQErQ9dEUq
message from Collins threatening me to get to the studio as soon as 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bUAzM3fqO
possible. In no less than five minutes. I moaned. He knew we couldn't 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKauX9e0Awb
get there in five minutes. That's if we were superheros.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5ZRVj5i26

"Zoey, come on, we better go!"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sutfNRYiD

"I'm coming."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpPWAES4ox

I started heading 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgP6NYrJn5c
towards the elevator and my phone beeped again. Another message. 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDLUv9KOfB
Hopefully it wasn't Collins again telling us he would hang us to death 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXeMn26nZL
if we didn't make it in time. But I was surprised to see an unknown 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zUfLB2IlK
number. A number coming from another country.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5VBlqeBpj

"Oh, who is this?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vWH8eTJQk

Before I could open the message icon, Zoey came rushing from behind and bumped into my back. That almost made me drop my phone.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aU2ZphzDL

"My goodness, Zoey!" I said as I looked at her. "You should look where you're going. I almost dropped my phone."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpmjmnfOCf

"Sorry," said Zoey as she also looked at me.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2OFTAJj1N

"Come on, we're already late."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4dv0fZo4V

We went into the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XfUQpnc4H
elevator and I put my phone away in my jeans jacket pocket. A black 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThzQZOyCek
Chevrolet SUV was waiting for us outside. The others had already left 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85WrwoiENr
for the studio and I had stayed behind because of Zoey's missing stud.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oQQ6ZaBKv

When we got to YG, 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeLX42NA7D
Collins stood there by the entrance, obviously waiting for us. He looked942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6Rq1gGber
like an angry father ready to scold at his kids for coming home late.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9djZQBNsZ

"Don't tell me all this is your doing, Zoey," said Collins as we approached him.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1zwapgxT8

"No, no, it's not," said Zoey as she shook her head.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkM1YNN1ltq

"Says the person who isn't wearing her studs today."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJD9cI5zZ5s

Zoey held her earlobes 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPErerJJJdH
and looked at me with a surprised look on her face. I shrugged. I had to942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlw2RnVVgKD
tell Collins why we delayed over the phone. At least he believed me, 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzP8AUyLz9c
knowing that he already knew what was Zoey was like.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjapWmqbiav

"Come on, the others are waiting and they didn't want to start without you," said Collins.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vbl2azYdx

"They had to wait," said Zoey, flipping her hair. "I'm singing the first verse alongside G-Dragon."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlC9qHTH8CL

"Remind me whenever you're deciding who sings which part of a song to let me be there," said Collins as he turned to look at me.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDCuwob5E3

"I'll try." I smiled. Zoey stuck out her tongue at Collins.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoJTebYPEj

We got to the studio and we found everyone else waiting for us, lazing around on the couch.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbAUv50z3A

"Hey, you're finally here," said Seungri.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIWJ7YnBsD

"Sorry, we had an issue back at the hotel," said Zoey.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRZRj1mchw

"Ya. A 'serious' one." I said as I rolled my eyes.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebgNon1tFD

"I can't wait to get started," said Daniel excitedly as he stood up from the couch.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGsBbLT2d1

"Then let's do so," said942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBcCuEritK
Collins as he joined the music producer by the console. "Zoey, Taeyang,942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1wbAnUxCR
Christine, Sam and G-Dragon, we will start with you guys."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpl5V4pIXm

I had completely forgot 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYL4DYQLIw
that G-Dragon was even in the room. I hadn't noticed him at all when he 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOQaTh7teg
stood up from the couch and came towards Zoey and I.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOh7vxFRRx

"Hi, Zoey," G-Dragon greeted Zoey.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf82Po94FPB

"Hi," said Zoey with a wide smile on her face.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2YbOo2lEM

"Ahem," Christine came from behind as she cleared her throat. "Let's go. You two can talk later."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywhUn9C9hp

I rolled my eyes and together with Taeyang and Christine, we went into the live room together, followed by the two love birds.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7geJyj17y

In the live room, there 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtr8XzyjipL
stood five microphones and with each mic had a pair of headphones around942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQB248EvqZ
it. We each stood in front of a microphone and put on the headphones.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmVEzSuYTP

Ahead of us was a window where we could see the others from the other side.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzzxavQ1o7

"Are you guys ready?" Collins asked as his voice was heard through the speaker in the live room.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7h7P6PylZQ

I looked at the others 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHbeI0KkhY
to see if they were settled and gave Collins a thumbs up and the music 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXFCchwAtd
producer started to play the tune for the song.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4qLOquq4F

G-Dragon started to sing942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEUv5IjxBu
and then afterwards, Zoey followed. Their voices blended so well with 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjWsXSOSCW
the music, they made a perfect harmony. Looked like I did a good thing 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrNdMXDGUY
to let them sing the first verse together.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgtw7STTcg

Collins, the music 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsdCmhDCCd
producer and the others outside the live room had smiles on their faces.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1bOcsMh5W
They were loving it alright. Collins gave them a thumbs up.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKFJxoiGbb

Christine then sang the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigsu5PtA70
bridge and as she came came closer to the chorus, I joined in. Then 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67Pclg0wFi
Taeyang and I sang the chorus together.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ691187HNYO

When we were done, the music producer stopped playing the track.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNkCED8qsZ

"That was awesome, guys," said Collins as his voice came out through the speaker. "The song is so incredible."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBObpNiMbR

"Ya, thank Sam," said Taeyang. "She is the one who came out with all of this."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2zmCK0mMr

I smiled at Taeyang who stood beside me and I nudged him on the shoulder. "Stop it, Tae," I said. "Don't make me blush."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0jOumwn8D

"Okay, Sam and Taeyang, I942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpH2gik2JN
want you two to go through the chorus again, this time with a little 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ijabqZzn3
more high tempo and see how it sounds," said the music producer.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKirlPMFNHd

"Okay," Taeyang and I said at the same time.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDCjLjKvhw

"Shall GD and I leave then?" Zoey asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWE6FwRkjft

"You may," said Collins,942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0n65nhrXO
looking a little irritated on his face. "But don't leave the studio. 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9yENYctca
You have to work on the backup vocals."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrUm2poJhs

"Alright, we will be here," said Zoey, with a grin on her face.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi53GD3Ibzk

If I hadn't known 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWxLRUMI1Q
better, something told me Zoey and G-Dragon were up to something. They 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUckt2s0BSS
looked like little mischievous children as they smiled at each other and942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ881VvP60Do
they walked out of the live room. I couldn't help but feel a little 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVIbuWpC8l
hollow inside.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKL8IwwY0rm

"So, we will start from Christine's part," said the music producer.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkw1MU6CTs

We continued recording 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLU0Hvcqv4
the song and later on, TOP, Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel also came 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrmDFtbInT
into the live room. It took us a while to record the whole song, trying 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWx7cyrWrlU
to make our vocals blend in with the song but we were done.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPTyyb7Xcb

"Great job guys," said Collins. "Let's break up for lunch and then we can come back and work on the backup vocals."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3t8k1D2oOU

"Alright," said Mike as he took out his headphones. "I'm pretty hungry now."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckG29bsoyn

"The song is amazing," said Christine. "And it's catchy that you can sing it the whole day."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKK6DY1hE2H

"Ya," said TOP. "Why don't we all go somewhere special for lunch?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWq6nT2XtI2

"Like where?" I asked as I put the headphones on the mic.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokKSANOqM2

"Some restaurant I think we will like," said TOP as he looked at me with a killer smile.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Z3RgaRgUQ

"That sounds great." I turned to the window to look at Collins who obviously heard everything. "Can we go, Collins?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUF4laTq3G

"Ya, you can go," said Collins waving his hand irritatingly in the air.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuEUxUR2gz

"Yes!" Daniel punched the air with his fist.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtxvcCIrxh

"But be back within an hour."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dJTRAX0Pt

I raised an eyebrow at Collins who then rolled his eyes at me and groaned.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJYtvkBsFi

"Fine, an hour and a half."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwW4mM1aFF

I did a little victory dance in my heart and I smiled in triumph. Collins and the music producer soon left the studio room.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ozzEaL5Gt

"How did you do that?" Daesung asked as we all walked out of the live room.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUEN5KGk98

"Do what?" I asked with a smile on my face as Daesung was right behind me.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmo82RARPz

"How did you convince Collins to give us an hour and thirty minutes?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIE4IrkN5Wl

"That, my friend," said 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWw7fIzoHRo
Mike behind me, "is the way my sister does her thing. Just by a look in 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7HorbMq4b
her eyes and you will have to do whatever she wants."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyecB9NsshU

"That's not true," I said as I turned around to look at Mike who had his hand on Daesung's shoulder.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYqrfrOU6W

"Really? I beg to differ," said TOP as he winked at me.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTHlpS3kDJ

"No one does what I want them to do just by looking at them in the eye," I said, looking away from TOP, blushing.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdD1LY7o1mr

"Well, it does work, most of the time," said Christine nodding her head.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4p8BCZekF

"Oh, ya? Like when?" I folded my arms.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxN7PqM1crx

"Whenever you want us to942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gak3VIEwd
tell you the truth about something and we refuse, you always give us 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBOPmPQWcj
this eye that makes us give in," said Daniel.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gLUBQKQb8

"For real?" I raised an eyebrow.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IYnqpwhTy

"Ya, your eyes burn and we just can't take it," said Christine.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvRSKfy548

"Huh," I thought of all 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFv87nzr0Qa
the times when either of my brothers or the girls ever did whatever I 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWmxYGmXfq
wanted them to do just by me giving them the eye.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePmjvQoBiZ

"But that doesn't explain with Collins though," said Taeyang.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBjYjEjTuk

"Thank you, Tae," I said feeling relieved.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9rw0SxR7Q

"Come on, Sam," said 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOy8DovY38w
Daniel. "You might not know it, but Collins listens to you because you 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlq3bY22Q2K
also give him the eye. And also probably because you're his favourite."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPD0hzf7ShP

"That makes no sense." I shook my head.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUqHCsAgbY

"I believe him," said Seungri. "Looks like you have a way of getting to Collins to make him agree with you."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sbGsBUj6p

"But he doesn't agree to me all the time," I slowly shook my head.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DwW3RyUbM

"On some ocassions like this one, he does," said Christine with a smile.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8Dbi4bEft

"Can we please just go for lunch?" I asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gMuAPVQBg

Seungri came over to open the door for me, but just as I was about to step out of the room, I stopped.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHz5d0I5ag4

"Guys?" I turned around to look at the others. "Where are Zoey and GD?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaETRvcXweM

We all turned towards the couch and noticed that there was no one there. I went back in the room and looked around.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjY8DTSNjFI

"They aren't here," I said.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83huPY6FRy

"These guys don't stop surprising us with their disappearing acts," said Daesung.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXldyeVPfV

"I'm surprised Collins didn't notice," said Seungri.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdvTxCy4tO

"Hopefully, they will be back before we start on the backup vocals," I said.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uDv1CWrhR

"Then let's go then," said TOP. "Wherever those two are, they are fine."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxsnrky1bq

I nodded my head and we 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobCe5eqqJK
all left the room. As we headed down to the ground floor, I reminded 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fzlZq2rnh
myself to leave a text message for Zoey.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQphDBbzUuW

We were in the lobby and942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwijJQNcH4g
I stopped to remove my phone. I went over to messages and realised that942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCa6ogkLI2
I had one unread message. It was the message I had received this 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrL2hBzUUC
morning.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1aZ14PzFj

I first sent Zoey a text942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErchbz3Lz6
message then I decided to read the unknown message from this unknown 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDZuzcANma
person. Then TOP appeared right in front of me.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92clBb6reF

"Hey, what are you looking at?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10G1W3GSyP

I was startled by his sudden appearance that my thumb pressed the exit button and I had gone out of my messages.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKybbKhD8V

"I was just sending Zoey a message," I said.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcoepzftrg

"Okay, shall we go?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOer2FpEWj

"Ya, sure." I put the phone back in my pocket and I wrapped my arm around his elbow and we walked out of the building.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIpglpJkPx

"Oh, you guys look like you're going out," said Christine with a smile.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Y1a8bgwgg

"We're all going out for lunch aren't we?" I asked with a smirk.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxF97DYKJt

"Ya, we are," said Daesung, looking the other way and scratching the back of his head.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcfoZM1uYz

"We better go or else our one and half hours will elapse in no time," said Daniel.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqJMMZ8tQ1

Instead of using any one942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgauwGxRTNQ
of the BigBang members personal cars, we used the two black SUVs. We 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXPRt60aiZ
were driven to a fancy restaurant and as usual, we grabbed a lot of 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuXyQczrHh
attention, especially from the customers.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDYvewgwCR

I had to admit, the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1s8ddCEQsQ
restaurant was nice and classy, suitable for the famous and the rich. As942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07t912OW58
I walked into the restaurant with the others, a fancy glass chandelier 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGv1MpqzDtC
caught my eye. The polished wooden floor shone almost like glass under 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJWEEN5edM
the lights the chandelier reflected all over the room.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbw0yozByD

A smartly dressed 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYweoAP4Fe8
waiter, who by the way, was super cute, came over. He gave us a friendly942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdcb3ATzI1
smile and I felt Christine nudge me by the shoulder and when I turned 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQZUiKREQu
to her, she was smiling. Looked like she also noticed the waiter's good 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtODOUAedUa
looks too. Damn! Why were Korean men so good looking?942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnzTQNXLWK

We were escorted to a 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXwcvg6ssv
round table big enough to cater a whole lot of people. Even ten. But 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmxbLkEYwj
sadly, Zoey and G-Dragon weren't here.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4t6jxAKpR

TOP pulled a chair for 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkNMeQhPt7
me and I sat down, thanking him as he took his seat beside me. Seungri 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTaT8scJgc
pulled a chair for Christine who sat on my other side and Seungri sat 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruuUnSRYzx
beside her.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Cu0cyMqpu

"This place is so lovely," I said as I looked around.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTx2cgPn9f

"Tell me about it," said Christine.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXLcdgbvvK

"I knew you would like it," said TOP.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZf2KdWOYOr

"Ya, it's exquisite, but I'm only here for the food," said Mike who sat opposite me.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXVsCz8wY6

"So, let's order," said Daesung.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmNK49rB0y

I took the fancy looking menu with the colour of velvet and the letters written in gold. Classy.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8CzAakb8R

After our delicious meals had been served, we ate. I enjoyed it as I savoured every little food in my mouth.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGcHErJm6W

As we were having our 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxryQajjeyl
dessert, we were chatting and there was a lot of laughter all around our942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6j8fbFtA7C
table. It was fun to be like this, all together as good friends and 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG372CFP2B9
laughing about. I kind of wished Zoey and GD were here. I bet they were 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtNQ3CDfqM
having fun wherever they were.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8t2NMZ31f

While I was having my 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tiLBNzSet
strawberry cake, I felt the vibration of my phone in my pocket. Must be a942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnyGIjfelK
message. I took out my phone and I was shocked to see that the same 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnEDGLnIDn
unknown number had sent me a message again.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjN381IxaQD

I tapped on the message 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwOn7mNn9z
icon and the first message the unknown number had sent to me was a 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIpIapqTbp
photo. I had to download it first before I could even see it. And then 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5scThgQk80
the next message was more surprising.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsWCUt4olz

"Aren't you going to do anything about this?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbL54ofBjOq

Anything about what was 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC79UmFzE7p
the question. Had this had to do with the photo? Must be or else the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWy4qVQCsF
unknown person wouldn't have texted me this message.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EuggR4NtC

I decided to turn my data on and download the photo. Just as I was about to, my phone went off.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWszKWqQoas

"Dang it!" I muttered to myself.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kB5SWGaYR

"Hey, what's wrong?" TOP asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdV7ibzTry

"Nothing, my phone went dead. I hadn't charged it last night."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gODYDhoqu

"Was there something important you wanted to do?" Taeyang asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTeaH4VV3q

"Not really, it's not important." I shook my head but my thoughts still lingered on the unknown photo.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxvffbW32d

"Did Zoey text you back?" Christine asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhpIinRjxh

"No, why?" I asked as I picked up a piece of strawberry cake with my fork.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4egKMV8aj

"Well, your phone vibrated so I thought you had received a message from her."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiw7TPPrzAE

"It was nothing. Wherever Zoey is, she is having a lot of fun."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpp78sEyjD5

"Hey, what's up with GD and Zoey anyway?" Taeyang asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wo4IBrRzX

"Isn't it freaking obvious?" said Daesung. "Those two seem like a couple now."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy42ossZK2I

I almost choked on my cake but instead, I cleared my throat. Christine rolled her eyes.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwUxduhfVC

"Well, that wasn't going to go on unnoticed forever," she said.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0iMz65AGN

"Wait, for real?" Taeyang asked, with a look of surprise.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HKfHhleDn

"And you already knew, didn't you?" Mike asked looking at Christine.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdE4Nk0PvR

"Oh, please," said Christine rolling her eyes. "Don't tell me you haven't noticed how close those two are nowadays."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTZrk0KiIs

"They have always been close," said Seungri. "But this time, they are just way too close."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGmRVjBKYz

"For them to disappear like that together, it counts for something, right?" TOP suggested.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOH3kf8fHI

"Can we please stop 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dcWe4zKpC
talking about it?" I asked. "There are people around and if they hear 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23ifD0F7zU
all this, some of us would be hanged when this spreads like wild fire."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA784xq5wGC

"Why do you say that?" Daesung asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhibbnjQeW

"Oh, oooh, oh," said Daniel waving his hand from across the table. "May I say it?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvG8ZWqxedW

"No, let me," said 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJD3Y5VLPCZ
Christine, as she put her hand on mine and looking at me convincingly to942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1xdwwxBuX
allow her to say what she wanted to say.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfn20Up0yVT

I shook my head at Christine and she leaned back on her seat with a groan. Daniel smiled when I nodded my head to let him go on.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNhbM6EsRE

"Because, Collins gave 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWnyUWMSsm
these girls a golden rule when we were coming here," said Daniel. "And 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAejB8IqHOM
that is, none of them should date any one of you BigBang members. 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1glPuiYwl
Never."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsMb2vf1G8

There was silence on the942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1jKZkqvc3
table and I couldn't help but feel a little downcast. Christine 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjQ8SF9okT
continued to eat her dessert like nothing serious had been said. I 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SaAC1oDmC
looked over at my brothers who seem to be enjoying our humiliation.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDU4Nk4NBNc

"Is that true?" Seungri asked, looking over at me.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74EUwuXuFe

"Ya, it's true," I said as I slowly chewed the cake in my mouth.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RWoLOIN4T

"Oh." Daesung looked a little disappointed as he stared down at his plate.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEz0qLNfBq

"Who cares? It's not like it's that serious," said TOP as he shrugged.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTVGlUnuch

"It's serious to 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1ZgecCOqU
Collins," I said as I turned to look at TOP. "We're only here to 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQE8yrzkSx
collaborate with you and that's all. Not date, get married and have 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5KGYMlaJz
babies."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbO9jCuWIAj

That was odd coming out 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7lNI9FGba
of my own mouth and the others knew it too. Everyone's eyes were on me, 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoeUBe7B44
with looks on their faces that I couldn't describe. This was 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vU43ouLsN
embarrassing. My hands were now curled into fists as they rested on my 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5InKZAzoI
laps.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHMHXUIfNZ

"Sorry, that came out wrong," I said.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sFN6bSjne

"Well, you did catch us by surprise by saying that," said Taeyang.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJNzgg7WsJ

I really did. Something 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBd99vOD27T
had gone totally wrong with me and I could feel it. My thoughts were 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUVe4pIqrv
spinning in my head and I felt like I had no control over how I felt.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQ5adBKjuq

"Excuse me, I'll need to use the rest room," I said as I drew back my chair, stood up and headed straight for the ladies' room.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38EhxjwTLn

I quickly closed the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpDPPQTudY
door immediately I stepped in the ladies' room, leaning my back against 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXhOQspi89
the door. My hands flew to my hair and I took a deep breath. I walked 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjacehmUp8i
over to the sink and stared at myself in the mirror.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBK9FZe2FM

"What's wrong with you today?" I asked my reflection.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhb0VkuOjb

I shook my head and I 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3wH1htNHH
knew I wasn't alright. Something was definitely wrong. Was it the fact 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyxeOkMZlD
that Zoey and G-Dragon were together? As far as I know, I wasn't really 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvQx1XtHux
supposed to care. But I did.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHR9oaDwd8

I looked at myself and I942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rbRAC49KF
could see the sadness in my eyes. Were they for G-Dragon? I shook my 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwz305RgxYm
head at the thought. No. They weren't. He and I were still at war with 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibpw6FyjR4
each other and that made no sense. I had to stop thinking about these 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdNM1ebKeh
things and focus on what's really important.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXSZVKxBHz

I quickly took a deep breath to try and pull myself together. I rinsed my hands, left the room and went back to our table.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4vLKJdUKT

"Are you okay, Sam?" Mike asked as I sat back down.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1rb0u7sNy

"Ya, I am. I just feel horrible that I said that."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHwISRXP7B

"We think we know why you did," said Christine.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HVKyP9Tfu

I gulped. What had these942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3COjUe6W5
guys thought of now? If it was what I thought it was, I would rather 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUD6ZkkOwE0
not hear it. There was a moment of silence at the table.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKn8GO5VTjs

"Zoey has you so worked up that you're irritated," said TOP.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcvWi4vOpV

That was not what I was expecting. I was wide eyed and in my heart, feeling a little relieved.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6erDrKiskk

"Ya, I remember when we were coming here in the plane and Collins told you to watch over Christine and Zoey," said Mike.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfzmT1o3jf

"And I have been a good girl on my part," said Christine making an invisible drawing of a halo above her head with her finger.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBljVqfP0t

While Christine was one 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxevboePp6u
who at least had her hormones in check, Zoey and I were pretty much 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Yl0ZzKNAf
guilty. I couldn't tell who was worse between either of us. I bet I was 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReMXJzMqtx
worse.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrvbN42HqJ

"Well, I guess I'm also guilty myself like Zoey," I said, admitting to everyone.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGb7SSZ0CSl

"If you mean TOP flirting around with you, then trust me, you're not," said Daniel.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyknGxnZAk

"Hey!" TOP looked a little annoyed but rather amused. He ended up laughing.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxctzCvHhI

"And me calling you my panda," said Seungri, with a smirk.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUweU0ooTnu

"You see, Sam, people just like you," said Mike. "And these guys shouldn't dare make a move of kissing you."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4VGF4KxWN

I blushed. "Mike!"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uGdmtYeij

"Don't worry, he is just being protective over his sister," said Daesung, laughing.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJMvuu5vQI

"I've tried kissing 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHb7GV6Yvq
her," TOP challenged as he looked over at my brothers. He raised an 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaAWYfcLwz
eyebrow. "What are you going to do about that?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlDUYgAQEV

"Uhh, if I were you, I 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKGJklooUV
wouldn't challenge them, TOP," I said as put my hand on his shoulder, 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIe2i1Vcki
looking over at my brothers who looked set on tearing TOP apart. And I 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0ptFxvyVu
caught a glimpse of Daesung rolling his eyes at TOP. "You would end up 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcOz4W9hVJ
regretting it."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1afKgzJSj

"True," said Christine, nodding her head at TOP. "These boys are like monsters you can't beat. Only Sam can handle them."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyclhMxtnsY

I looked over at Christine with a look that said 'that's not true.' Christine shrugged.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBBQ3VpV7q

"Fine, I'll listen to 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6Y66r0zpl
you ladies," said TOP as he looked at Christine and I. "Most especially 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOluaelE4Z6
because Sam says so." He gave me that killer bad boy smile of his and I 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYk2wd0Rz9b
blushed.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYOYEwfD65

"Well, we better go," said Taeyang.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLX0bkQSWN

He was right. We only had a few minutes to get to YG. And Collins was one person who's strict when it comes to time.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XCI3sTLgO

After TOP paid the bill, we left the restaurant with the paparazzi taking pictures as we walked out.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYanseECRSB

We got to YG just in 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQC1KafNerZ
time. I just hoped that Zoey and G-Dragon were back here. I didn't want 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eG7SekTP3
Collins on my throat and giving him the eye, wasn't going to help.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPF5NHAIELa

When we got to the studio, we found G-Dragon.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeezXGBR8E5

"Hey, where did you two disappear to?" Christine asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0mJQt0fy2

"We just went out," said G-Dragon as he looked around the room.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8V6wYkc9zj

I couldn't help but feel942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdH18cUCDRt
that something was wrong, just by the look on his face. "What's wrong?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE09ZRf79DI
I asked him with my eyebrow raised.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQh8IJ0EEri

"Huh?" He appeared to be absent minded. Was he looking for something?942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTl5TrNthTx

"I was asking what's wrong with you? And where is Zoey?" I asked as I also looked around.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2q5l6EW8ZG

"That's the thing," said G-Dragon. "I can't find her."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwO1azQxCU

I felt something inside 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaiM8a09TZ
me break and my eyes bulged out of their sockets ready to fall out. I 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj727ahLrJx
couldn't believe what I was hearing.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1tdqk3ca9

"Are you for real?" Taeyang asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LFJSIkCDZ

"I'm serious," said G-Dragon.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQie9fg3fb

"Wait, do you mean you 'lost' her?" Mike asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2ovkNiwHI

"I didn't lose her, I just can't find her."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVleY2eCMX1

"That sounds more like losing her to me," said Daniel.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykeOmxNsze

"You guys aren't helping!" G-Dragon exclaimed throwing his hands in the air in frustration.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmLpONw0N1

"Where were you guys first of all?" Seungri asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHJTqdG88H

"We first went to have lunch then the two of us went to the park."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0d1uC53wqL

"Then?" TOP asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4XhoincfX

"I don't know, I went over to get some ice cream for the both of us, and the next thing I know she was gone."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpY0ypRYA4

"Are you sure?" Daesung asked. "Did you look everywhere for her?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeTyEhxhlN

"I did. I even asked people around and they hadn't seen her. I thought she would be back here."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHBR2jl1vh

"That would be unusual, given that Zoey doesn't really know the city so well," said Taeyang.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5Lv5kQptL

"But where could she be?" Christine asked looking as worried as I was.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIfN0W44tC

"Try calling her," said Seungri, turning to Christine.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3k0N5aOfXg

"I just hope she is okay," I said as I rubbed my neck.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLV87p37hvb

"What are we going to do with Collins?" Mike asked looking at me.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41oQBrc4Pd

"I don't know," I said. "Hey, do me a favour and try to call the hotel and see if Zoey is there."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzQWSqWJTD

"Sure thing," said Mike as he pulled out his phone.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMoKmBPtt7

"Her phone is off," said Christine her phone in her hand.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgusJHladNL

"Oh, no, this isn't good," said TOP.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHDt3HNXv2

"Again, Zoey is putting us into more problems."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnhd1UQ1q0

I couldn't help but 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Uz4ToJ4fX
wonder why she went off like that. Something wasn't right. Was G-Dragon 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8UjlaHFJO
not telling us what was really going on?942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QEJ7i9XQ8

"No one has seen Zoey go into the hotel," Mike announced.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcSpbxIb5Q

"We're goners," said Seungri as he dropped himself on the couch.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPsr9yQ95f

"We've to look for her," said TOP.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHoxLcVUQn

"But where can we start looking?" Daniel asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVHaaqW3cI

"I don't know, but we have to go and find her," I said.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KMh9PVEur

"And we have to do something with Collins," said Taeyang.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9iD7FnvWE

"Did someone say my name?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBONChTr1H

I cringed. He was one 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPohU55RGg
person I wasn't ready to face right now. Everyone else wasn't ready to 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaqa4TsQSE
either. We slowly turned to look behind us and Collins stood there with 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGc0z5pY4D
the music producer.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUYLlDbtqU

"Why are you all looking worried like someone has gone missing?" Collins asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCgq04pL28

I sighed. If only he knew. But if he does find out, he wasn't going to forgive us that easily.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4iDluvhcZ

Collins looked on at us, waiting to answer him. What to do now! We were going to be in such big trouble.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIjAXtwLAD

"Looks like you aren't 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeT0JBTSgn
going to answer me, so let's get back to work," said Collins turning 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9h0pbpqiW6
away from us and heading towards the console.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDN1utZRP6i

"We will work on the backup vocals," said Collins. "Zoey, Sam and Christine, you're up."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbOBwCjjft

I looked at the others 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlb8JYE0Dg7
who hadn't said a word. We all looked at each other. Someone had to do 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWSyrSlvgl
something or else we would be toast.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gvBEGpLFR

"Are we going to start?" Collins asked looking behind him as he turned on his chair. "Where is Zoey?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWYEVkwiC6

It was about time he noticed. It looks like we ourselves weren't ready to tell him that Zoey is missing.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYFGNoCCFW

"What's wrong with you, guys? Why aren't you saying anything?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWUnCgcDa9

"Zoey isn't here," said Mike.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOl96LXEvj

"Ya, I can see that. Where is she?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaLnmziJ57

"She wasn't feeling too well," I said. "So she went back to the hotel."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMLV4Qwvj1

"What? Did she eat something bad for lunch?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvXYrJlqs1

"Ya. She did," said G-Dragon.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGHxzjfgMQ

"So, do you think we should continue or do this tomorrow when Zoey is around?" I asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrG700nC7Bd

"We should just do this tomorrow," the music producer suggested, turning to Collins.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qnpQ1CDSR

Please say yes. I was praying in my heart that Collins would agree. This time I wasn't relying on my eye to do anything.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZGfduGoIT

"Fine," said Collins. "We really need Zoey, so we should just do it tomorrow."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtk1PS1gkrO

Mike and Daniel almost 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15Kvpbr5FQ
jumped with relief but they managed to control themselves. Christine 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIbZGu1DKw
turned around so that Collins and the music producer wouldn't notice her942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyZofSJc4k
sighing in relief. The rest of us just stood there, pocker faced.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1hYi8ykid

"That's fine," said Taeyang.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUiNmWLqj8

"I really wanted us to be done with this today," said Collins.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzwrJSQ81n

"Looks like it wasn't meant to be," said TOP.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5HaZLhOci

Ya. It wasn't meant to be. Looks like we were lucky. That meant we could look around for Zoey.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl94gGFaIdA

"You guys can go back to the hotel and make sure Zoey is okay," said Collins.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGELNeNQnX

"I'll go," said Christine. "The others can stay here if they want to."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusNQDqouuC

Christine was doing the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMy0RNrkUl
right thing. If she went to the hotel, Collins wouldn't be so suspicious942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZpvjagABf
of what's going on and just in case he decides to go back there at 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWznOYtBMpe
anytime, Christine might cover up for Zoey.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qBhZiyVz4

"Okay and what will the rest of you all be doing?" Collins asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9lUAhKFQt

"Chilling," G-Dragon and I replied at the same time. We both looked at each other afterwards.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzZ1ECxXGL

"Fine, I have some other things to attend to. I might just go and check up on Lee and Yang Hyun-suk."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DplF745GE

I wanted to ask where, 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNI3DcVe9ZW
but I knew it was none of my business. I realised that I hadn't seen Lee942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPwpw82PH2
the whole day. Must be she was busy with Yang Hyun-suk. Collins and the942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyVFvXkDUH
music producer soon left.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54OYxIqrOn

I walked over to the door and checked if Collins and the music producer were in the hall. But they were gone.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2y4elIPIY

"Looks like we have to split up and look for Zoey," said Taeyang.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfTl8AmBl9

"Ya, we should," I 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzgLFZxcHY
nodded my head. "G-Dragon and I will take Christine to the hotel just in942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5EChCgcva
case Zoey shows up and if Collins decides to go there."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0f5u1cTqVa

"I'll go with Taeyang," said Daniel.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BD4P3BvO3

"And I go with Seungri," said Mike.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewbMdTV6BT

"That leaves Daesung and I," said TOP.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7b4Lq7pFWU

"Great, let's go," I said and we all walked out of the room.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72AneTT3Hp

As soon as we left the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJU4uCpiWI
YG building, we split up in the parking lot. Luckily, Collins had 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPf74cWc9J
already left. Christine and I went with G-Dragon in his car. It was 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VTWIEqiFu
important that I had to talk to G-Dragon concerning Zoey.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsP4pM5mA5

We soon arrived at the hotel and Christine got out of the car. I gave her my phone for it to be charged.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU08bNnBbBu

"Call us if anything good happens," I said I looked at Christine through the window.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIjHqG4ref

"And what if something bad happens?" Christine asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoV752dwRN

"Like Collins? You can handle it," I said as I gave her a smile. Christine winked and wished us luck.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TOikqOrFW

G-Dragon drove away and 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMGPyPBDLJ
we first went to the park where he came with Zoey after lunch. I just 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuovXjLW0J
hope she didn't go that far and that she was okay.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPy597rlcv

"Did you two have some sort of argument?" I asked when we both got out of the car and I went round it to face him.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbtQe543lo

"What?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmyuuweJjW

"Did you two argue?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxurVZdt9V

"No, we didn't," said G-Dragon as he went around me and started walking towards the park.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAqVoPFxAz

I quickly turned and followed him. When I caught up with him, I stood in front of him to stop him.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZVlptafNS

"Are you telling me the truth?" I asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8DFgDVoAQ

"Do you think I am lying?" G-Dragon asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhGpVZMc0a

"I think so." I said with my arms folded.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqjNB3RLE9

"You're crazy," said G-Dragon as he walked around me again.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgpmAl6nF0

I huffed. He wasn't going to budge. I had to try something to get the truth out of him.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDxQRiyDvv

With quick strides, I 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6kLbWVANK
caught up with him again. This time I started to walk backwards so that I942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOa3tG2nPFP
could look at him directly in his face.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXt7nMPbHo

"What are you doing?" G-Dragon asked as he looked at me, puzzled.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW28v0Wyb4h

"I want you to tell me the truth."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7JNQxRS9r

"You're stressing yourself out by walking backwards."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3cEasOOqS

"Do I care?" I raised an eyebrow at him. "I know you're hiding something from me."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMmNa2sXcp

G-Dragon chuckled and 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoW6Jw0FIvL
that almost made me smile. "Stop playing detective, my little kitty. As 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnW9pO4x0Z5
much as it suits you, you're going to trip over and fall."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdc8HO0iQZ7

"Then you have to stop me from walking backwards by answering my question."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpxf1acgVh

"This is one silly method of interrogation if you ask me."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmk8o470W2T

"I can tell you're not telling me something. Zoey can't just leave like that without someone upsetting her."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVEYlfoE8q

"And how do you know?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2K96OAVpn3

"I'm her best friend. 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOpQazHolE
And plus, whenever someone gets her really upset, she runs off without 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKx3dvKYevU
telling anyone. She always wants be alone to think."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQTQ7LTNFa

"I hope she doesn't think of committing suicide."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTGi5JPaeF

"Zoey can't end her 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrA2LI1vSH
life. Well, she hasn't tried to anyway. She's leaving the dream right 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCjWbrSyt6
now and ending her life this early, isn't going to sound right. Unless 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2SOKcb6nT
you did something."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzA7UY00Rr

"Me?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabv21UU0fe

"Da! Yes, you!"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaoW0xn7R0

"What could I possibly have done for Zoey to try and commit suicide?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduOGbX4mfY

"Don't talk about suicide like that." I hit him on the arm.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATyqQGnSce

"Ouch!" G-Dragon stopped and held his arm. "That hurts!"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUYT81QRDp

"Well, you deserve it. Now tell me the truth." I put my hands on my hips.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUMogVfarQ

"I'm telling you, Zoey and I didn't argue."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKauQc0aaD

G-Dragon looked me in the eye and he seemed really convincing.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKv5QdO3I0

"Okay. I believe you," I said. "But you must have said something that upset her."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HgHnyGcmT

"I can't really remember what I had said to her. Maybe she just left on her own."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjIxWqRMC1

"And with her phone off, that's a bit strange, don't you think?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxf0wifM7Mq

"When we find her we will ask why she ran off."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDfJOYGj3a

"Ya. Sure."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtJRefDNYe

"Now, will you please 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEntYVlX2S
stop walking backwards? I don't want you to trip and save you from 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpICWpCZJA
falling. That will spark rumours again like it did during the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgOmD07wA0
interview."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXLM5GLZZA

I didn't say anything, 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnysVr1DfdD
so I just nodded my head and faced forward. We went further into the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPGs09DIxd
park and as we looked around for Zoey, we sparked some attention from 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv94ABPffZh
our darling fans. We signed a few autographs and took a few pictures and942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCmZF7IRHo
went on with our search. We even asked some fans if they had seen Zoey,942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuzImkWa6J
but nothing.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWCt3cDh4l

We were already half way into the park and still no sign of Zoey. We were by the lake and I sat down on the grass by the banks.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4RZ187WiU

"Are you tired already?" G-Dragon asked as he looked down on me.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCXpS6k0BX

"I'm not," I said as I 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIB6oY8UNa
removed my slippers and felt comfortable with my bare feet on the grass.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUD3WwL2Ke
"I'm trying to figure out where Zoey could be."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xqQ38hQlk

G-Dragon sat down beside942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCvTuQflok
me and the two of us were silent, looking at the pond. Laughter filled 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmoi6suBSs
my ears as I saw a group of kids playing from across the pond. Some 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxbegmlszo
couples also sat on the grass close to the pond. It was such a beautiful942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdHwSkjnPo
day and sitting by the pond felt so relieving.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLaO7j8T0R

"Have you figured something yet?" G-Dragon asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnnNVCnfnj

I frowned and looked at him. "No, why do you ask?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbspTPHgqSG

"You seem to be smiling to yourself," said G-Dragon as he looked at me.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgJjwagrkJ

"No, I'm actually enjoying what I'm experiencing right now."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEuO3yi011

"You love nature, don't you?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtRJ9j04EY

I closed my eyes, still smiling. "Ya. I really do."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAetxnEeNP9

At that moment, I was so942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jgRxIyvV3
caught in the little world inside my head. For a moment, I forgot about942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVQW0Dcq7b
everything. About looking for Zoey, being famous, and the whole world 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNidWHYhdBD
with everyone and everything in it. It's like they never existed because942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccwgewpPy9
even the noise around me seemed non existent.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtU7vdSFmp

Then I felt something 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUeIAmJqP9
brush against my hand like a soft feather. The touch brought me back to 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8EIjuF3Rs
reality and I quickly opened my eyes. I looked beside me and G-Dragon 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRicrybTfbV
was staring at me.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehgCigepOv

"What?" I asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOf8SkniqU

"Has anyone ever told you how beautiful you are?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9EZhlczwV

I blushed all of the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WLnDobbzA
sudden and I looked down. His hand covered mine and for a moment I 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQroa9aapVi
wanted to pull away. But then again, I couldn't explain how I felt with 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrx3T3ipvMB
his hand on mine. I felt this weird comfort.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVdtMakCmP

I would have said yes to942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WjUrzgtWQ
his question, but no words came out. This wasn't right. As much as I 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcag2YyKngL
wanted him close to me, I knew I would end up getting hurt because we 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfBrjbEhJI
were never meant to be.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6CWEWnCT8

"Umm," I pulled my hand away and put it closer to my body. "Please don't say that GD."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6k3J4Y5s77

"Why?" He asked softly.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6kBsQOJcn

"Because this isn't right at all and you know it."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHWVHyNE6F

"What do you mean?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7VQsnzFWw

"You know that I ready know about Zoey and you. You guys are more like a couple."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81AEB8VHOL

"So?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JXBuQxgHA

"I want you to stay far away from me as possible. The further we are apart, the better it is for the both of us."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rWjkx7jY2

"Looks like you figured out that I don't really like Zoey as such as I like you."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SFRZsMZXr

I didn't say anything as I continued to figure out what to say next.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbePYFHfxC1

"Then why are you leading Zoey on? She doesn't deserve this, you know?" I asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tgOxAuIdY

"I know."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMYfviJ7ra

"Then why are you doing this?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGO2dVZznBB

G-Dragon looked at me like he never had before. He soon looked away and sighed.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWLFgWIe6r

"I'm doing this because of you, Sam. But even if I do so, I still can't get you out of my head."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunEUPJkLvr

I also looked the other way, trying to act like those words hadn't affected me. But they did and they did so badly.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTKEIOHi4i

"You should find another942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxK9JJ3BI89
way to do so, GD." I turned to look back at him and he faced me. "But 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ST3hTPqMk
not with Zoey. I don't want her getting hurt because of the both of us. I942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupAaGEu6Py
will never forgive myself."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWb2rLXvQsq

G-Dragon nodded his head. "I'll do so."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHvtz0XVph

I wanted to smile but I 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTwGyfCnV9
couldn't bring myself to do it. I hoped he kept his word and maybe with 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoq0uXeGWQQ
this little talk we've had, we would be friends again and stop acting 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcPyqszyeu
like we had beef with each other.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDlW6oaDUA

Just as I was about to 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAqFNZr6aW
ask him why he had been giving me the attitude lately and if it had 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2naMKPpRdA
anything to do with his jealousy, his phone rang. He quickly removed it 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHW1Q1I1KyA
from his pocket and answered it.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhSkoimdDq

"Hello? Christine?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXR0yXFVY7

I was now attentive. Had she found Zoey? I wished I could have talked to her myself.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSzc7sSu0P

"Okay, we will be right there. Inform the others as well."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7Few2Wrqz

"What happened?" I asked after he cut the call.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiCMpUfzms

"Christine called to tell me that she knows where Zoey is."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUK2rqzjLJ

"Where is she?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSydfYcLFj

"She is at a famous café. I know where it is."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlFmDgSapw

"But how did Christine know where Zoey is?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgp7sIBcuh

"Zoey's phone went back on and she texted where she was. And she is not alone."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsi0Ma8oHXH

"Who is she with?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Q1CQruMhZ

"We're about to find out. Let's go."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5IkgzB9DV

G-Dragon got up from the942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQ6aljbMLe
ground and he held out his hand to me. I took it and he pulled me up 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATBL4xix77
from the ground. We left the park together, heading towards his car.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDkHnLF9hg

When we got in his car, 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXftisptmsW
we drove through the city and we arrived at this small fancy café. We 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPsZOCavN6
parked across the street and before we could get out of the car, I 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8Ojdfb07y
looked across towards the café.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ531rLiSS9y

"Can you see, Zoey?" G-Dragon asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjnRzzOxBQ

Through the huge window,942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRk1rkGDhmz
I could see what was going on inside. Looked like a lot of people 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpclcmwyUd
enjoyed coming over to the café. The place was parked for an ordinary 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOE0Mbf66K
day in the afternoon.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK69cVtOoMJ

I searched for Zoey, but942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhA2hyXlRsJ
I couldn't see her. It was then that I saw Zoey at the far corner of 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ym3vGTCOT
the café. She was facing the window side and I saw her with someone. 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBVqUMaTtu
Sitting opposite her was a man in a fancy looking black suit. From afar,942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1F8KtyaLAn
I could tell his suit was expensive and I couldn't see his face.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7HqTikaYw

"I see her," I said. "And she is definitely with someone."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtofjLL9urI

"Who is it?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6Cntc3CYj

"I don't know. By the look of his suit, he seems like a business man or one rich tycoon."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5K9JX69KE

"Seriously?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvjqedtVc4

"You think I'm kidding?" I turned to look at him. "Or are you now jealous that Zoey is hanging out with someone who isn't you?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQ3K9yOVTA

G-Dragon looked towards the windshield, avoiding my gaze. "No, I'm not. I'm just wondering who it was, that's all."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2D2kU8rpXC

I rolled my eyes and 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4BUuUEKPS
said nothing more. I went back to looking at the café and focused on 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjbCXekP1Q
Zoey. I decided to read her body language and see if she was okay. She 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dz7xmWhmo
looked like she was enjoying herself, chatting with this stranger.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGEUCAElWQ

She was sipping her cup 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVXC7QfuYr
of coffee and she went back to smiling at the stranger. Something was a 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5kG8tTF48
bit off and I shifted on my seat to see if I was seeing right.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6z6FyPzbl

"Hey, is something wrong?" G-Dragon asked, noticing my tension.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXh5q0ppfcc

"Ya."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtDmiwrF10

G-Dragon also turned on his seat and looked through the window.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzH1WLC60x

Zoey's smile made me 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOKIOlYCsD
wonder what was going on. She was smiling and chatting but she looked a 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3ZUZcM0HW
little nervous. Usually when she is with a guy, she was always the one 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm48EEp30CB
who was never scared of leading the conversation and became pretty942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDfkAcLLml
comfortable with the person. Unless the guy was creepy enough to be a serial killer.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2UKlS6Puc

I felt a threat coming 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6kn02IqW7
up. Was this guy dangerous? Zoey had a nervous smile on her face and if I942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3QAyjg9KB
was not mistaken, I think I noticed her fingers tap frantically on the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTPdV3yEkj
table. She did that whenever she was nervous. I had to know what was 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxU2UuwxLAR
going on in there.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3qAuSMzEA

"Let's go," I said as I turned to look at G-Dragon. "I'm not liking this."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOe1BVsJDf

"Thank you," said G-Dragon, looking relieved. "I had a bad feeling about this guy."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfT4h0XujU

"Ya, right," I said as I grabbed the handle of the door, opened it and stepped out.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxEbktqNor

Just as G-Dragon came 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikoNZMsZ8Q
out of the car, three cars appeared off the main road and came to park 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vbcJFpdey
in the parking space behind G-Dragon's car. The others had arrived.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXfZoRMDQH

"Christine told us to meet you here," said Taeyang as he and Mike came out of his car.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4gkJTj2wN

"Zoey's in the café," I said as I pointed across the road.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsJHLrcqTO

"Alright, let's go," said Seungri.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhku26afdG

When I looked back at the café window, I noticed that Zoey was all alone on her table. That was odd. Where was he?942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6U377wZEH8

"Oh, no, no, no," I said staring wide eyed inside the café.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCSJUhaYPN

"What is it, Sam?" Daesung asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJF59uzRcFG

I didn't answer him as I942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIFDtPknP3
quickly dashed across the road without even checking for any cars. I 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jJPujOZXH
could hear the others behind call out to me to be careful. I luckily 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTbDfIjIIa
managed to reach the café without getting hit.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56Xe9n4co8

When I got to the café, a942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftypYnlst9
few people came out through the door. None of them matched the person 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIOI02VNhj
who was in the café with Zoey. I quickly went in and I found Zoey still 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEtrVsKsym
sitting in the corner. I rushed over to her that my presence scared her.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLk0CJmAKu

"Sam! You scared me to death!" Zoey held her chest as she breathed in and out so heavily, trying to calm down.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVPNxdbWsN

"Where did you go?" I asked, taking the seat the stranger had been sitting on earlier.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eoJiVQbuV

"Oh, I...um.." Zoey played with her fingers.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulLQn3jnlA

"Don't you dare try to 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDT8QYHaSS
lie to me, Zoey," I threatened. "You went with GD for lunch and the two 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KyYJhD1ZZ
of you went to the park. When GD went to get ice cream, you had 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpPfGgmpIs
disappeared. And the next thing we know, you're here."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3teLelZiZl

"Christine told you where I was?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxZeybj2Kg

"Of course she had to. We were worried sick."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbXRe5S6dp

I heard the bell of the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo23rStI95d
café ring and I knew the others had arrived. They soon came over by the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4blbtNm49G
table. Only Taeyang, G-Dragon and Daniel were the ones who came in.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62t2CSC4AI

"Zoey where have you been?" Daniel asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzYAmIR4ln

"And who was that guy you were with, huh?" G-Dragon asked, looking down at Zoey with a frown on his face.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFurDEVWoa

"Awww, are you jealous, my G-Dragon?" Zoey smiled at him.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxSXvlfiHc

"Stop taking all this 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDI4r11Ox6
like a joke, Zoey. I saw the way you were behaving with him. You weren't942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15Ve20b01T
yourself when I saw you from across the street," I said.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzv07MSWSm

The smile on Zoey's face942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtwkjtzlB7
disappeared in an instant. Good. Maybe now she would take us seriously.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmA2RJGSm4
Her safety was way more important than she could ever imagine. If 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCjpirtNey
anything had happened to her, a lot of us here would never forgive 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNrWgWZFkw
ourselves.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1FBpi9TYa

"Can we please get out of here?" Taeyang suggested. "This isn't the place to discuss this."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMV9MW897U

"You're right," I said 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsARBZWTgrB
as I looked around the café and many heads were turning our way. I hated942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81YL92Cc0m
attracting so much attention sometimes.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6y4299QK4

The others had started 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvjrGHpkie
to leave and Zoey and I both stood up from the table. I noticed the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1w5JJ25S90
teacup the stranger had used and my mind still couldn't stop thinking 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcueicWHtip
about who he was.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwINTia9lf

After we left the café, 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCuPrJh46W
we went back across the road where the vehicles were parked. Daesung, 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUdmMqJHc1
TOP, Mike and Daesung stood waiting for us.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYJLAFF3lB

"Thank goodness, you're alright, Zoey," said Daesung.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3w4JHGZ4wM

"Ya, thank goodness you weren't lost," said Mike. "We wondered if we would find you in a ditch or something."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcYJSZWspU

Zoey frowned at Mike and all he could do was smile back at her mischievously.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLeTWFmeg5

"Let's all go back to the hotel, shall we?" I suggested. "Zoey can tell us everything from there."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNdkZ44yKq

Zoey and I went in 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjmrvxYqf1
G-Dragon's car making sure I sat in the backseat. The others got in the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLi8uZobfTJ
other cars and we drove off, G-Dragon's car leading the way.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRYva8uTMr

We were all back in the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0zspCvQwL
hotel on our floor. Luckily, Collins wasn't around. I was relieved. Now I942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BStYjBzN1
could vent out all my anger on Zoey.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqF27MGXbr

We gathered ourselves in942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFYpuAbAWT
the lounge. The others sat on the couch and made themselves 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkoj9sk0vk
comfortable. Zoey and I were left standing and I looked at her, with my 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyefBlSC62
hands on my hips.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9x7e53mIg

"Okay, let's start with why you disappeared?" I asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwMVooFzbZ

"No, don't ask that," said G-Dragon. "Ask who she was with first."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6Npvq4548

"I'm the one asking the questions." I turned to face G-Dragon. "I want to know what made her go like that."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdcMqPVlIy

"Fine, I tell you," said942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzO7TWoB0GW
Zoey raising her hand to calm me down. "G-Dragon went over to get some 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ox58gzmMW
ice cream when a person came up to me. Said he was my biggest fan."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuLpjGLVrC

"Don't tell me you fell for the person's good looks like always," said Christine shaking her head.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPryQehYRz

"You know handsome men are my weakness," said Zoey. "Sorry G-Dragon."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zBJVvPRxb

"No, I don't mind," said942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9kjemcueL
G-Dragon, shaking his head. I looked at him again and I was surprised 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZllQD93Mey
with the look on his face that he really didn't mind at all.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAb1sClmxtT

"So, he said he is your biggest fan and then what?" Taeyang asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIJKwkrgNI

"He offered that the two of us go out for some coffee," said Zoey. "That's how I left."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgimPfY6qCA

"Now that makes no sense or maybe you have no sense, Zoey," said Seungri.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdjibuzlTB

"Huh?" Zoey looked at Seungri, looking embarrassed.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHo6qE1i7m

"As much as that sounds 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03qLhoCOpc
totally embarrassing, Seungri is right," said Christine. "What you said 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvdavHMX8W
doesn't make sense at all. How could you go out for coffee with someone 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9wO4RBlMN
you claims to be your fan without taking G-Dragon along with you?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gDP7ZZOJS

I started to tap my foot942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7ywsE1xT3
and looked at Zoey, ready to breathe out fire if necessary. Christine 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSgJgfrG6q
was right and surprisingly, Seungri too. She wasn't telling us the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FmJx8wDpM
truth.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFw90xTQBbO

"Come on, Zoey, tell us 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGMvYEIZ8U
what really happened," I said. "You couldn't leave without GD. And you 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9ef40rG3p
had your phone turned off. All I know about the person you were with is 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqz0ybCIpn
that he was wearing an expensive black suit."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRX9dZU42ZN

"Okay, do you really want to know the truth?" Zoey asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoolK3F9X3C

"Yes!" everyone replied at the same time, that almost made Zoey jump in fright.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3zGKDFAm3

"Okay, okay, eish," said942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Ne4vMasX2
Zoey. "You scared the hell out of me. The truth is, I went with my fan 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCTpSpo4KU
because he insisted that I go with him and not tell anyone about it."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxk6dgyGvS4

"Huh?" TOP looked confused.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPAwNKcHMo

"What fan lays out that kind of condition?" Mike asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOokMi2XwNj

"Someone who was ready to take advantage of Zoey," I answered.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGl9RYywIQp

"If he did, you guys still wouldn't have found me," said Zoey.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOC6MuTQyFb

"If he did, you wouldn't have been looking so nervous in the café."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVUyzNByd9

Zoey was quiet and I still felt that she wasn't telling us the whole truth. I decided to play along and not say a word.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShABwjmLz9

"Then what were you two talking about?" I asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1yXWahwyj

"Just stuff," said Zoey, avoiding my eyes. "About me and my celebrity life."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxfsC4z2Kt

"You're sure?" I asked. "Didn't he talk about himself?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EhXvG04bK

"Ya, totally." Zoey nodded her head. He never said anything about himself. Not even his name."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOcKFr76XZ

"Then why did you look so nervous in the café?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzTsn2R6H6

"He was asking some personal questions I didn't like."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsts4QAVjwp

"Are you sure?" Daniel 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbzMe2XeBh
asked. "When someone asks you a personal question, you either snap back 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxgu99oglk
at them or walk away. Whether it's an annoying reporter, any of your 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkbXCbI7n9
haters or even us."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflZyJQRFjh

Daniel was right. Zoey 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOyX6yJMz4
would have stood and walked away from the stranger but she didn't. I 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcaJctJBHG
wondered what question he might have asked her. That's if Zoey was 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ua247jB72
telling the truth.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vMolWW3q7

"I didn't want to look so mean in front of him," said Zoey. "He seemed like a very nice guy."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Bwj29NQYc

"A very nice guy that 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQ0CtRdC1a
made you run off with him, made you switch off your phone and made you 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2B1Pn1ye40
so uncomfortable," said G-Dragon, looking really irritated.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUt6McqK6w1

"Come on," said Zoey. "He wasn't that bad, seriously."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99QMRpg7qU

I didn't want to 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVGSSzqbJp
pressurise Zoey with more questions. Right now, she was getting away 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9r0plwz686
with it. If she was hiding something, I would find out sooner or later.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKejfaAcl7

"Okay," I said. "We're just glad you're fine."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpt4oj44AZ

"And not dead," said 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2HwcEPMdA
Mike with a smirk. Seungri and Christine who sat on either side of him, 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfLn6YXxVX
both gave him the elbow in the side and he howled in pain.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRjDz8uisK

"I'll pretend I never heard that," said Zoey.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vU5ZMjQKY

"And you better get 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2UhN5po8E
ready for Collins," I said giving Zoey a smirk of my own. "We told him 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOrl9J6z1N
you had a bad tummy ache and that's why you weren't at the studio."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyE5LsR89p

"Seriously?" Zoey gave me an angry stare. "Couldn't you have told him a better lie?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JONC44GC3

"That you were missing? Fat chance. You've already put some of us into enough trouble for one day."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvafWR0nGNr

"Alright. Sorry. I won't do that again."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8H6pnLeNO

I rolled my eyes, while shaking my head and went over to the dining table. Something told me it wouldn't be the last.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ILMd3x4WL

"Well, now that you're found," said Daesung, as he stood up. "Some of us better get going."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QjiDj94e0

"Sorry for putting you guys into so much trouble," said Zoey.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfypBuFeTTT

"As long as you're fine and Collins isn't going to kill us, it's okay," said Taeyang with a smile.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6ZZYUjD9V

"I'll be leaving too," said Seungri and he gave Zoey a hug and he walked over to hug me as well.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM66Xzb5wXh

"Alright, see you tomorrow," I said.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEz6nmxLFy

One by one the BigBang 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrkt5a54oP
members started to leave, saying bye to each other. G-Dragon stayed 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujMfQ4ifjj
behind with Zoey so that they could talk a little. Giving them privacy, 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUDBpbJmeq
Christine, my brothers and I left for our rooms.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3Is6gUoPv

When I went in my room, I942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMDT5cCfaA
went for my phone that was still charging on my bed. The phone was 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwPVd0weBc
still off and I decided to switch it on. It was almost full.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLIiZ2CNq8

There was a knock on the door and I called out to the person to come in. Christine entered.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA663T1WFto

"Hey, can we talk?" Christine asked as she closed the door behind her.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wY2igsEcI

"About what?" I turned to look at her.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jtLf2lUwq

"Do you really believe what Zoey told us?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1NKmqyRF0

"No, I don't." I sat on the bed.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOR5TkENlI

"Looks like I'm not the only one," said Christine as she came to sit on Zoey's bed, facing me.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZWUPlzMoX

"I wonder why she isn't telling us the truth."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzandUCI3v

"Did you see the man's face?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3m8IdPcuK

"No. All I could say is that he wore a fancy and expensive suit."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MgiDt31QI

"I wonder who he is. Maybe he is some rich tycoon or something."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVKu3vRr7u

"That's what I thought too." I gave Christine a smile.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuvfPrzYBC

"I bet he is good 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOfqywJBPG
looking too. I still wonder why Zoey left like that without telling 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydOYbfd81A
anyone. Do you think she really did all that just because the stranger 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEThgHfT3L
told her to?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRwJamXQP7

"Well, I believe her on that part. I'm just wondering how he managed to convince her to come with him. Maybe he threatened her?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGN5PndI3Q

Christine's jaw dropped. "Don't say that. I know there is no any other logical explanation, but I think that's way too far."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlV08kAHZPV

"You said so yourself, Christine. There is no other explanation. He might have blackmailed her or something."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PmSxCwqDh

"Okay, but blackmailed her with what?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZtfMV1uNs

"That we have to find out."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4tsEnuaFE

I was just about to grab my phone and check out if I had any messages when Zoey came in the room.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsjmsCq5ac

"Oh. Has GD left already?" Christine asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmp6QRkizo

"Ya. He left," Zoey replied. I heard a bit of sadness in her voice.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pqgt0hZNh

"Are you okay? You don't look alright," I said.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYocVb6diSd

"I'm fine. G-Dragon and I talked about something serious."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BmtGzEyUH

Oh my. Had he told her 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7z1egeiTQS
about what we had discussed earlier at the park? As much as I knew it 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyWjKCvmBU
was going to hurt Zoey, it was for the best. Besides, she was going to 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNt4iK7Y2t
find someone way better than G-Dragon. Hopefully, even me.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpJByQvr8g

"What did you talk about?" I asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOg34eWKdO1

"He was just pissed that942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyUY9kADl7
I left like that," Zoey answered. "He thought maybe he said something 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UjfXE5mnO
that might have upset me or something."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDSXbpbM1S

"Oh." That wasn't what I was expecting. "Well, I had asked him earlier if he had said something that might have upset you."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYzuKS92cO

"But he didn't."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkhg8nzOQu

"I see why Sam asked," 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pQhQWCSWh
said Christine. "When someone gets you so upset, you run away. You've 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOWPgGoETU
done that many times before back home during our school days, you know?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtd4YgCZVdS

"Ya I know. Forget about it." Zoey waved her hand in annoyance. "What's happened has happened."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEb3OpctjdW

And I hope it will never942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lX5qmAFKW
happen again, but this guy in the suit still worried me. Until I know 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRODGfgfOjK
who he is, I wasn't going to pretend that the worst has passed when it 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcK03eyouT
was yet to come at any moment.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkdGKbPtP1

The next thing I knew, the door to our room flew open and Lee walked in.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJlQhUUy9A

"Lee!" the three of us exclaimed in excitement.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMctYD4BB1

"Wow! Did you guys miss me?" Lee asked with a smile on her face.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdH2ZLpf2I

"Ya, we did," said Zoey, putting her arm over Lee's shoulders.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPMhMBPfDK

"Well, I missed you too," said Lee. "So, what happened today? I heard you never finished up on the song."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRZNGzjNa4

Christine, Zoey and I 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDO5EKi4r9
shook our heads and talked randomly at the same time, saying nothing 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkECV1pGoA
really happened. Lee knew something was up and even if it could clearly 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oAqAZt52k
show on her face, she didn't push us. She just smiled.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNAcbo0GbF

"Well, you'll tell me later," said Lee. "Collins and I were just....."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOfVnp7Nng

"Collins is here!" Zoey's face went white like a sheet.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemh10y1o41

"Yes, he is," said Lee 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYl1qzM95I7
with a wicked smile. "Now if you don't want to get into trouble, I 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡka4fhS3kct
suggest you go on your bed and cry out that you still aren't feeling 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSR8upaiwLG
well."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV56AgVHAa8

Christine and I almost burst out laughing. Zoey frowned.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3h2Ilfqix

"Ha, ha, very funny," said Zoey as she went over to her bed and sat down.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKxNegFBk2

"As I was saying," said Lee. "We were in the lobby when we received a package from the receptionist. Said it was for you guys."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ld4KYbqu8

"Us?" I asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9DUGyVJer

"Ya, the letter on the package was directed to The Toxins. It's with Collins in the lounge."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2aQfcP30I

Christine and I rushed 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wOkYwi704
out of the room leaving Zoey with Lee. She had to pretend she was still 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aj84Ccqnb
not feeling well. We found Collins in the lounge with the package in his942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VEKSYD18R
hand.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFBVFd3qh0

"Hey, Collins," I said. "What's that?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2E8F0Zwp9

"This came in for you guys," said Collins. "And with a letter too."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KNsnb3xc6

"Did I hear there is something for us?" Daniel asked as he and Mike came in the lounge.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9PsPQU9RI

"Ya. Here you go." Collins gave me the package.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡed4g8cZAzs

The package was wrapped in a brown wrapper and on top of it was a white envelope. It was directed to us just as Lee said.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6Dxz2p3zQ

I took the letter and 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGu7NKA0Y2
gave the package for Christine to hold and opened the envelope to remove942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvZDlqil9n
a letter. I unfolded the letter and I read it out loud:942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wzpZfwxZu

"Hope you're all okay. Just wanted to say I'm your biggest fan. With lots of love."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu40C6kGZTf

"That's it?" Mike asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXm2DDqALAT

"Ya, that's pretty much it," I said, looking behind the letter but there was nothing. "No name at all."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabozH0y2iR

"Did you see anyone who sent this?" Daniel asked Collins.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVlEJ58eiX

"All that the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfBtLQP4ig
receptionist told us was that some young man in a suit gave it to her 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtiP9NJK8v
and she should give either you guys or us when we came by the lobby."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5mtP0efWx

My eyes went wide and my942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSo37W9gEEP
heart pace quickened. Did Collins just say a young man in a suit? Maybe942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvxDiymFcl
I heard wrong and needed some clarification.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguXVVl6uN6

"A young man in a suit?" Mike asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYEzgy76Ml

"Ya. Do you perhaps know him?" Collins asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOXEPst7A7

"Huh, no," said Christine, shaking her head.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMMuhgRke7

"Oh. For a moment there, you guys looked a little frightened," said Collins. "I thought you might know him."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RNJ2hdX2h

We did know him all right. The man who had been with Zoey. But who really was this guy? And this package? What could be in it?942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zSN90b66z

"Open it, Christine," said Daniel.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPRGdQV9sM

Christine threw Daniel 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILPFmEsek0
an angry glance. She obviously didn't want to open it and I knew what 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlyFMtxadu
she was thinking. What if there was a bomb inside? Or maybe something to942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWRwYwFDTy
threaten or blackmail us? You could only think of the worst from a 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BLvk0ZjiG
person you barely even knew.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshIRiots3F

"Let me," I said as I took the package from Christine and I sat down on the couch with the package on my lap.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0o38JtTMb

Collins was watching us for a second and then left the lounge. I sighed in relief and so did the others.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRwYqxDvM9

"I thought he would never leave," Mike whispered after we heard the door to Collins' room open and close.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7WOKHAMri

"Can you check if he is really in his room?" I asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLayM64PsY

Mike went in the hall and came back seconds later. "He is in the room."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzf8C87pVHK

"I'm really nervous," said Christine. "What is in there?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWChyGj3jk

"I don't know," said Daniel. "I hope it is nothing that could kill us."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsY6pj7iN8T

Mike hit Daniel at the back of his head and Daniel whined in pain.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Uvtz3uWSG

"Don't say that," said Mike. "I don't want to die soon."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUiNKN2R7I

"Guys, calm down," I said. "Let's just open this thing and see what's in it."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIr9NOiHmLb

"Okay, but take your 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3YF178Qx4
time," said Christine. "If there is a bomb in there, I want to say my 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUmEcx9t95
last prayers before I leave this earth."942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFUq8yG04k

I rolled my eyes but I 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCNIMsU4gE
was as scared as the rest of them. If we were to make out of this alive,942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNCtuucpxP
I was going to kill Zoey myself for dragging us into this mess.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalQDxeSTKe

I started to unwrap the package. It was a white box.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAiaGZb5A3

The other three couldn't942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCADkpihNWA
stop staring at the box and I needed to end this paranoia once and for 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvIWd7XF4A
all. I quickly removed the lid without thinking that there might be 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lBOgJeR92
something dangerous in the box. The others even covered their faces. But942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxc5zmK0s0O
nothing happened.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCOGmnKBvA

"What the....?" I looked in the box and what I saw, shocked me completely.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ir559YpKE

"What is it?" Christine asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbH3zkedgUN

I looked up at the 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUopye2OxSK
others and they bended over to see what was in the box. Their jaws 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmizCMBxcms
dropped almost at the same time and we looked at each other.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJMK1AdeFA

"This is just ridiculous," I said as I shook my head.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDjX6I0S7P

Christine, Mike and Daniel suddenly burst out laughing.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKQfLhwFJu

Zoey and Lee came rushing into the lounge.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUYU1uFOkM

"Hey? What's going on?" Zoey asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pAHLhDk6s

No one answered. I was too speechless to say anything and the rest were still laughing.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTqWs8TgGC

"What is in the package, Sam?" Lee asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBnpQUwdAx

I soon removed a little cute brown teddy bear and held it up for Zoey and Lee to see.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQE3Bt0xP8

"Huh? You're laughing all because of a teddy bear?" Zoey looked at the others, wondering if they were okay in the head.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgvSO5Bv6C

"Oh, my goodness, Zoey," said Christine trying to catch her breath with tears in her eyes. "Can't you see it?"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWv0qhFbbGL

"See what?" Zoey and Lee asked the same time.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTnXk9YC6d

"The...the...suit!" Mike laughed even more, pointing at the teddy bear.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrvqG0jOjw

It was then that Zoey 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtTpSMNMqw
looked at the bear in my hand and recognised that the tiny teddy bear 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6sSk5ORU4
wore a tiny black suit with a tiny black tie. Zoey looked like she was 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bCVdi7FPo
about to get sick. Looked like she already figured out it was the942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzKyO5ByXt
stranger who she was with today that sent it.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNq9dzGGu3A

"Guys, what am I missing here?" Lee asked.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPmmbLtbyF

"Zoey will tell you all about it," I said. "I believe this is yours." I gave the teddy bear to Zoey who held it in her hand.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4U9fs3FEh

The other three continued to laugh when they saw Zoey take the bear. Lee looked as confused as ever.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtvgCWyqFr

"And here I thought it was a bomb," said Daniel, wiping away the tears in his eyes.942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvn7Ewl7e0U

"Ya. But it just turned out to be a bear in a suit," said Christine. "A harmless bear!"942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvPR4sxLsy

This time, they laughed 942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOa5C3JmbN9
even louder and I couldn't help but start laughing too. A minute ago, we942Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1XT0JPC6g
