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.1060Please respect copyright.PENANALvG8dAQIHq
I had never been this 1060Please respect copyright.PENANArlNCTw1T3M
late in my entire life. Not even when I had my own personal 1060Please respect copyright.PENANANyufT50Gij
appointments. The others would be wondering why I was so late. And 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAuH13tQm8kb
trying to explain the reason why, would have them blown away.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAv8XLdclrFH
"Sam, are you still there?" Zoey called out to me from our room.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAf0TcfBIdM7
I didn't want to answer. I was quite irritated. But if I didn't, she would start to freak out.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAYXtWGWHovO
"Sam!"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAiWDlapsL5L
I rolled my eyes. "I'm still here, Zoey," I answered.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAv6fQV08xyJ
Zoey came out of the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAwhzfZSTi8O
room and came to the lounge where I was seated waiting for her. I was on1060Please respect copyright.PENANAr04O0mARJM
the couch and I looked at her, then back at my watch.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAUvX4PFKzDO
"Did you find what you're looking for?" I asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAxJvx17nyLd
"No, I haven't," said Zoey.1060Please respect copyright.PENANARINdKrwITm
"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."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAdbxyIGwuM6
"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.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAn9wLU1l4su
"Zoey, it's just a stud and you have plenty of those like it in your jewellery box."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAw2x8Rdt0Yr
"But those are my favourite studs," said Zoey. "You know they are diamond, right?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANA35cI1MxCU8
"I know because I bought you those studs for your birthday a year ago."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAQUMeVgO5ze
"Oh. Ya, I know." Zoey had a look on her face that told me she forgot about that.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAqzucNxt5Hz
I ignored her and said, 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkPuakp0WxJ
"just get another pair of studs or don't put on any at all. For my sake.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAvO6ZYW3ERD
And Collins' too. We were supposed to be at the studio at 10."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAcCqCdsEUUs
"What time is it?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANA1SVJ4Er0Y3
"10:35."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAsSlEfUFZK5
"Wow, time really passes by."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA7hsNd8AUxj
"When it comes to you, it does. Come on, let's go."1060Please respect copyright.PENANACAwtlTn8cW
"Let me go get my phone."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA7tkMKZo0Xn
Zoey rushed back to the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAmuxebVW5Cr
room and I hoped she wasn't going to get back to looking for her missing1060Please respect copyright.PENANAUT5hRkZvkP
stud. She sometimes did the opposite of what she had to do. But anyway,1060Please respect copyright.PENANArahz3q0yP1
that was Zoey.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAU8TOnXbS8u
I soon received a 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAuKskwcxADd
message from Collins threatening me to get to the studio as soon as 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAYQ2wYvY7L6
possible. In no less than five minutes. I moaned. He knew we couldn't 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAsilwo41sYU
get there in five minutes. That's if we were superheros.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAi8POOvwH1x
"Zoey, come on, we better go!"1060Please respect copyright.PENANA9Jnm3zI1vW
"I'm coming."1060Please respect copyright.PENANATtKgmXdkwX
I started heading 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAqizgLRjk0C
towards the elevator and my phone beeped again. Another message. 1060Please respect copyright.PENANARtYyYag0Vj
Hopefully it wasn't Collins again telling us he would hang us to death 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAbV1haijmJj
if we didn't make it in time. But I was surprised to see an unknown 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAuwxcE9ioX7
number. A number coming from another country.1060Please respect copyright.PENANASQJcPVpahk
"Oh, who is this?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAgIfQPkymrP
Before I could open the message icon, Zoey came rushing from behind and bumped into my back. That almost made me drop my phone.1060Please respect copyright.PENANASFINjCwvWL
"My goodness, Zoey!" I said as I looked at her. "You should look where you're going. I almost dropped my phone."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAoCsQvgrBvm
"Sorry," said Zoey as she also looked at me.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAHw9ob0yQfn
"Come on, we're already late."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAm5zdW4pkTY
We went into the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAqpwrdlJcjW
elevator and I put my phone away in my jeans jacket pocket. A black 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAn3GBisckzh
Chevrolet SUV was waiting for us outside. The others had already left 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkzNixfYiB9
for the studio and I had stayed behind because of Zoey's missing stud.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkq3LZdLoU9
When we got to YG, 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAO7pjBcxs36
Collins stood there by the entrance, obviously waiting for us. He looked1060Please respect copyright.PENANAToeRWF9cOD
like an angry father ready to scold at his kids for coming home late.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAQT3vbTF69y
"Don't tell me all this is your doing, Zoey," said Collins as we approached him.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAaH05eIsMdK
"No, no, it's not," said Zoey as she shook her head.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAnTqYwHFpFp
"Says the person who isn't wearing her studs today."1060Please respect copyright.PENANABwiXJYJgwF
Zoey held her earlobes 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAX7kFhk3kv4
and looked at me with a surprised look on her face. I shrugged. I had to1060Please respect copyright.PENANAa8oA1MGKUN
tell Collins why we delayed over the phone. At least he believed me, 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAt1atzyo8R0
knowing that he already knew what was Zoey was like.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA42XGPdlUvc
"Come on, the others are waiting and they didn't want to start without you," said Collins.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAVVOx6sTLUp
"They had to wait," said Zoey, flipping her hair. "I'm singing the first verse alongside G-Dragon."1060Please respect copyright.PENANALVcHwEnqN3
"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.1060Please respect copyright.PENANACt604D3lSg
"I'll try." I smiled. Zoey stuck out her tongue at Collins.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAlrUfl5xLV8
We got to the studio and we found everyone else waiting for us, lazing around on the couch.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA1pOjoO6UyY
"Hey, you're finally here," said Seungri.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAo2D6z1uleQ
"Sorry, we had an issue back at the hotel," said Zoey.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAV7SrUT3jTk
"Ya. A 'serious' one." I said as I rolled my eyes.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAh3jvBMLPrz
"I can't wait to get started," said Daniel excitedly as he stood up from the couch.1060Please respect copyright.PENANADAzjt16SYY
"Then let's do so," said1060Please respect copyright.PENANAaAblgAtl7A
Collins as he joined the music producer by the console. "Zoey, Taeyang,1060Please respect copyright.PENANA0viSgskGlW
Christine, Sam and G-Dragon, we will start with you guys."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAdiUbDm2J7o
I had completely forgot 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAzjJU8OBmRb
that G-Dragon was even in the room. I hadn't noticed him at all when he 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAyW9mdR32Jp
stood up from the couch and came towards Zoey and I.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA3zrrXH9NmY
"Hi, Zoey," G-Dragon greeted Zoey.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAza3VGAy8E6
"Hi," said Zoey with a wide smile on her face.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAxjBCoLJU57
"Ahem," Christine came from behind as she cleared her throat. "Let's go. You two can talk later."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAmAfZRf0VxZ
I rolled my eyes and together with Taeyang and Christine, we went into the live room together, followed by the two love birds.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAosK1KwyLhW
In the live room, there 1060Please respect copyright.PENANABw0gePcIIv
stood five microphones and with each mic had a pair of headphones around1060Please respect copyright.PENANABYCqmweH6Y
it. We each stood in front of a microphone and put on the headphones.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOKsgbirNjs
Ahead of us was a window where we could see the others from the other side.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAyElW5lcNUt
"Are you guys ready?" Collins asked as his voice was heard through the speaker in the live room.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAf9vodovtFx
I looked at the others 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAZyk1tkBOLB
to see if they were settled and gave Collins a thumbs up and the music 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA0KYdJJQ0Gv
producer started to play the tune for the song.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAXs9y5NS8WR
G-Dragon started to sing1060Please respect copyright.PENANAb2DYFJkl4o
and then afterwards, Zoey followed. Their voices blended so well with 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAnp0pugOJO8
the music, they made a perfect harmony. Looked like I did a good thing 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAWBiwzGPjIP
to let them sing the first verse together.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA1QARbq15aI
Collins, the music 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA7Qinq25xll
producer and the others outside the live room had smiles on their faces.1060Please respect copyright.PENANALRuwVbmH3o
They were loving it alright. Collins gave them a thumbs up.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAeuqbneTaEr
Christine then sang the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAejjOwhvEaU
bridge and as she came came closer to the chorus, I joined in. Then 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAxymmchQIlU
Taeyang and I sang the chorus together.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAKXDaxN8CJX
When we were done, the music producer stopped playing the track.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAT2g6lcjxtE
"That was awesome, guys," said Collins as his voice came out through the speaker. "The song is so incredible."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAnyQwOfEZiC
"Ya, thank Sam," said Taeyang. "She is the one who came out with all of this."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAorP3KzkHP7
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."1060Please respect copyright.PENANABLPwB6kMnA
"Okay, Sam and Taeyang, I1060Please respect copyright.PENANAgEZ7zvS7VD
want you two to go through the chorus again, this time with a little 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAPfSwY5EdJF
more high tempo and see how it sounds," said the music producer.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAKsB0PVGkMx
"Okay," Taeyang and I said at the same time.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAvBdZdHYHUf
"Shall GD and I leave then?" Zoey asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA688XtFKTZ3
"You may," said Collins,1060Please respect copyright.PENANASLsBeSCS1e
looking a little irritated on his face. "But don't leave the studio. 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2N4LcK3YA
You have to work on the backup vocals."1060Please respect copyright.PENANACT2x7zxfkr
"Alright, we will be here," said Zoey, with a grin on her face.1060Please respect copyright.PENANASbsM0Zk1JB
If I hadn't known 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAqH2zkQPUf7
better, something told me Zoey and G-Dragon were up to something. They 1060Please respect copyright.PENANASFO8row3ol
looked like little mischievous children as they smiled at each other and1060Please respect copyright.PENANA3efAihCI6x
they walked out of the live room. I couldn't help but feel a little 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAXs7rTl0iJq
hollow inside.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAxZa6WxhC8J
"So, we will start from Christine's part," said the music producer.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAiMSlpgejCE
We continued recording 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAqyutRBwyrD
the song and later on, TOP, Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel also came 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA2vWO0Ee2jM
into the live room. It took us a while to record the whole song, trying 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAiSFJYuoyva
to make our vocals blend in with the song but we were done.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA23cKGoJx8I
"Great job guys," said Collins. "Let's break up for lunch and then we can come back and work on the backup vocals."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA3JLsenaDJg
"Alright," said Mike as he took out his headphones. "I'm pretty hungry now."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJeHzBfpgsd
"The song is amazing," said Christine. "And it's catchy that you can sing it the whole day."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAL1KfaImuK1
"Ya," said TOP. "Why don't we all go somewhere special for lunch?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAGjRiopMFqg
"Like where?" I asked as I put the headphones on the mic.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAFfYwWTx55S
"Some restaurant I think we will like," said TOP as he looked at me with a killer smile.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAF6Bkxfr5Lx
"That sounds great." I turned to the window to look at Collins who obviously heard everything. "Can we go, Collins?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANARDvvzDull8
"Ya, you can go," said Collins waving his hand irritatingly in the air.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAbDaeesEkcw
"Yes!" Daniel punched the air with his fist.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAQ5CUaKyoNX
"But be back within an hour."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAFjwRGj2g43
I raised an eyebrow at Collins who then rolled his eyes at me and groaned.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAzmdXZIo6DS
"Fine, an hour and a half."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAieBJq1U8k5
I did a little victory dance in my heart and I smiled in triumph. Collins and the music producer soon left the studio room.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAlGJ3NNEPhJ
"How did you do that?" Daesung asked as we all walked out of the live room.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAxFG8jMWGeF
"Do what?" I asked with a smile on my face as Daesung was right behind me.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA3vEBas2nPl
"How did you convince Collins to give us an hour and thirty minutes?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANA6Vkvt7JbCk
"That, my friend," said 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAtN8LYwIo1q
Mike behind me, "is the way my sister does her thing. Just by a look in 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAdqwl7ctwbI
her eyes and you will have to do whatever she wants."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA85bYE0z6ES
"That's not true," I said as I turned around to look at Mike who had his hand on Daesung's shoulder.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAHwIZ1WtkTx
"Really? I beg to differ," said TOP as he winked at me.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAH6PSCulTMh
"No one does what I want them to do just by looking at them in the eye," I said, looking away from TOP, blushing.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA6d7Nja3Pyq
"Well, it does work, most of the time," said Christine nodding her head.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkytzNAHC8e
"Oh, ya? Like when?" I folded my arms.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOiDTec2tbs
"Whenever you want us to1060Please respect copyright.PENANAmn1P10x82T
tell you the truth about something and we refuse, you always give us 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA6lGqvs09pP
this eye that makes us give in," said Daniel.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAMa0eyzGtbh
"For real?" I raised an eyebrow.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAeqWOwXEOLz
"Ya, your eyes burn and we just can't take it," said Christine.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAFDYYOMVIWV
"Huh," I thought of all 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAjLgf7expfk
the times when either of my brothers or the girls ever did whatever I 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAQvcqayRlmF
wanted them to do just by me giving them the eye.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkJp9QtueTj
"But that doesn't explain with Collins though," said Taeyang.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAy7nKwZbz6m
"Thank you, Tae," I said feeling relieved.1060Please respect copyright.PENANApnBTLGtuxu
"Come on, Sam," said 1060Please respect copyright.PENANACr5RP13t9E
Daniel. "You might not know it, but Collins listens to you because you 1060Please respect copyright.PENANArPsjrrbijl
also give him the eye. And also probably because you're his favourite."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAzNM5WWRtEg
"That makes no sense." I shook my head.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAPDnXyYpGRw
"I believe him," said Seungri. "Looks like you have a way of getting to Collins to make him agree with you."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAcXG0QyxYjK
"But he doesn't agree to me all the time," I slowly shook my head.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAQp4k4YfnQC
"On some ocassions like this one, he does," said Christine with a smile.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAgRvXwM8xzP
"Can we please just go for lunch?" I asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAZ1mL3xtTtE
Seungri came over to open the door for me, but just as I was about to step out of the room, I stopped.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAEA8sKMQloI
"Guys?" I turned around to look at the others. "Where are Zoey and GD?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAdd9VTywNx6
We all turned towards the couch and noticed that there was no one there. I went back in the room and looked around.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAwpDnqiQ4YN
"They aren't here," I said.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAZiSHx2I92O
"These guys don't stop surprising us with their disappearing acts," said Daesung.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAnThTTzMnNZ
"I'm surprised Collins didn't notice," said Seungri.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA8jSu7Tkwrq
"Hopefully, they will be back before we start on the backup vocals," I said.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAgq2Nmp2AfS
"Then let's go then," said TOP. "Wherever those two are, they are fine."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA6KFgVmJSv1
I nodded my head and we 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAZeKs236Wec
all left the room. As we headed down to the ground floor, I reminded 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA2OJ8qKPdlx
myself to leave a text message for Zoey.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAT6nlW96rp2
We were in the lobby and1060Please respect copyright.PENANAxcP7tetEXT
I stopped to remove my phone. I went over to messages and realised that1060Please respect copyright.PENANAdjRbxhpvw7
I had one unread message. It was the message I had received this 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA41nAOfufor
morning.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAaEqJasc42o
I first sent Zoey a text1060Please respect copyright.PENANAMSEo2LVBtA
message then I decided to read the unknown message from this unknown 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAua1bYreNnP
person. Then TOP appeared right in front of me.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAf6ZbZCKDl4
"Hey, what are you looking at?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAk26kEjriGl
I was startled by his sudden appearance that my thumb pressed the exit button and I had gone out of my messages.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAWYIGz3hyDy
"I was just sending Zoey a message," I said.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkrkJrJGExk
"Okay, shall we go?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAIBTMIGJVuR
"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.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAMeIzh9X1XJ
"Oh, you guys look like you're going out," said Christine with a smile.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA9o3R7r09OJ
"We're all going out for lunch aren't we?" I asked with a smirk.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAjL9T6m1teo
"Ya, we are," said Daesung, looking the other way and scratching the back of his head.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAZqJlGERENF
"We better go or else our one and half hours will elapse in no time," said Daniel.1060Please respect copyright.PENANADyc9UtD5N4
Instead of using any one1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJAXbfZ5Fp4
of the BigBang members personal cars, we used the two black SUVs. We 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA4CurA2Aubs
were driven to a fancy restaurant and as usual, we grabbed a lot of 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAjcLPk9Z6L3
attention, especially from the customers.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA9t3bdnOENn
I had to admit, the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAH26thHjdJs
restaurant was nice and classy, suitable for the famous and the rich. As1060Please respect copyright.PENANAeAmW35c6OR
I walked into the restaurant with the others, a fancy glass chandelier 1060Please respect copyright.PENANALEBe5g3M5t
caught my eye. The polished wooden floor shone almost like glass under 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAllNOCWVxv9
the lights the chandelier reflected all over the room.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAdBOa9CDZkt
A smartly dressed 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAIsyCVbVjay
waiter, who by the way, was super cute, came over. He gave us a friendly1060Please respect copyright.PENANACWE0QjxTGz
smile and I felt Christine nudge me by the shoulder and when I turned 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAdgQWx85oja
to her, she was smiling. Looked like she also noticed the waiter's good 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAjN4Hkp1dO5
looks too. Damn! Why were Korean men so good looking?1060Please respect copyright.PENANAVWNvcOt2Lp
We were escorted to a 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4uGFKxx4V
round table big enough to cater a whole lot of people. Even ten. But 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA6vhcILbUHF
sadly, Zoey and G-Dragon weren't here.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAwcSSGiejYg
TOP pulled a chair for 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAXhpD2GNnW5
me and I sat down, thanking him as he took his seat beside me. Seungri 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA6clfP093nh
pulled a chair for Christine who sat on my other side and Seungri sat 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAXTalXpJeHM
beside her.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAN695KCvAky
"This place is so lovely," I said as I looked around.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAGxh6w4q8Gj
"Tell me about it," said Christine.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAYlPTkvncYg
"I knew you would like it," said TOP.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA0tqdWtjhDK
"Ya, it's exquisite, but I'm only here for the food," said Mike who sat opposite me.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA5hIWNDhQhg
"So, let's order," said Daesung.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAsyyVZawyOz
I took the fancy looking menu with the colour of velvet and the letters written in gold. Classy.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA5U9w9GE5ut
After our delicious meals had been served, we ate. I enjoyed it as I savoured every little food in my mouth.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAADdBX4xL4d
As we were having our 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAjL7YlzY8B2
dessert, we were chatting and there was a lot of laughter all around our1060Please respect copyright.PENANAq1gsXUlNVj
table. It was fun to be like this, all together as good friends and 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAdunnQSF6kx
laughing about. I kind of wished Zoey and GD were here. I bet they were 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJeFBTti9NY
having fun wherever they were.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAhwYRiFdsCK
While I was having my 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAmYFGINchXO
strawberry cake, I felt the vibration of my phone in my pocket. Must be a1060Please respect copyright.PENANAe0AMtmCrW9
message. I took out my phone and I was shocked to see that the same 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAYwoYaxW2hz
unknown number had sent me a message again.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAzUXaYxseyG
I tapped on the message 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAzFiFhl0nve
icon and the first message the unknown number had sent to me was a 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA6mqjyNX7PB
photo. I had to download it first before I could even see it. And then 1060Please respect copyright.PENANACXaqx6uwRn
the next message was more surprising.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAKBLPAASu1Y
"Aren't you going to do anything about this?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkWfV0IuL3j
Anything about what was 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAT9NYbYGFqP
the question. Had this had to do with the photo? Must be or else the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA2p9VOON0DB
unknown person wouldn't have texted me this message.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA5sxOvBWThb
I decided to turn my data on and download the photo. Just as I was about to, my phone went off.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAYZx9bRVHOQ
"Dang it!" I muttered to myself.1060Please respect copyright.PENANALbNZNNFz4Z
"Hey, what's wrong?" TOP asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAUWdcIYbNfo
"Nothing, my phone went dead. I hadn't charged it last night."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA17Qoiwrm6b
"Was there something important you wanted to do?" Taeyang asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAZNdYLcQ6WE
"Not really, it's not important." I shook my head but my thoughts still lingered on the unknown photo.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAVCv1fSJUn7
"Did Zoey text you back?" Christine asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAHHaRL85Q6b
"No, why?" I asked as I picked up a piece of strawberry cake with my fork.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAqDKoz6M0qf
"Well, your phone vibrated so I thought you had received a message from her."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAaex4StFuTG
"It was nothing. Wherever Zoey is, she is having a lot of fun."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAsk2GW5HGKE
"Hey, what's up with GD and Zoey anyway?" Taeyang asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAiZ4I366pK9
"Isn't it freaking obvious?" said Daesung. "Those two seem like a couple now."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAC3gZASPe5r
I almost choked on my cake but instead, I cleared my throat. Christine rolled her eyes.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAIHiLxLae7t
"Well, that wasn't going to go on unnoticed forever," she said.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA9nvjcKHFDP
"Wait, for real?" Taeyang asked, with a look of surprise.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAl3sJfdQOiO
"And you already knew, didn't you?" Mike asked looking at Christine.1060Please respect copyright.PENANABAYxzXcHA7
"Oh, please," said Christine rolling her eyes. "Don't tell me you haven't noticed how close those two are nowadays."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAysLfcmaMzW
"They have always been close," said Seungri. "But this time, they are just way too close."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJX0aV5wjz8
"For them to disappear like that together, it counts for something, right?" TOP suggested.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAriuIFOeKrz
"Can we please stop 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAz8s9jd6YP3
talking about it?" I asked. "There are people around and if they hear 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7qkBgcA5O
all this, some of us would be hanged when this spreads like wild fire."1060Please respect copyright.PENANABK4zHNmHU2
"Why do you say that?" Daesung asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAiXKY6eUAc0
"Oh, oooh, oh," said Daniel waving his hand from across the table. "May I say it?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJyO8jnuh6D
"No, let me," said 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAAKmiXeyTiZ
Christine, as she put her hand on mine and looking at me convincingly to1060Please respect copyright.PENANAb9IXemxuHw
allow her to say what she wanted to say.1060Please respect copyright.PENANApiRx9LhYMP
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.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA4KJknxQl7i
"Because, Collins gave 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA2CyJlRHOMc
these girls a golden rule when we were coming here," said Daniel. "And 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAbFLbDJioo7
that is, none of them should date any one of you BigBang members. 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA8rn51NHjyx
Never."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA1WqVicGLLZ
There was silence on the1060Please respect copyright.PENANAQMzw90BhoT
table and I couldn't help but feel a little downcast. Christine 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOkmjiHf108
continued to eat her dessert like nothing serious had been said. I 1060Please respect copyright.PENANADTdya7Ni0c
looked over at my brothers who seem to be enjoying our humiliation.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAhxV4us8wIF
"Is that true?" Seungri asked, looking over at me.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAq8RcX3TKg9
"Ya, it's true," I said as I slowly chewed the cake in my mouth.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAGSgbAvPKj9
"Oh." Daesung looked a little disappointed as he stared down at his plate.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAzd77wryfPd
"Who cares? It's not like it's that serious," said TOP as he shrugged.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA07f5GTPAui
"It's serious to 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAaCUSt4BaTs
Collins," I said as I turned to look at TOP. "We're only here to 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAfXyP3zncHg
collaborate with you and that's all. Not date, get married and have 1060Please respect copyright.PENANATlgCG7iZTJ
babies."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAhx85tAVHnB
That was odd coming out 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA4AJtX8bzaz
of my own mouth and the others knew it too. Everyone's eyes were on me, 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA0CMO5DE4BU
with looks on their faces that I couldn't describe. This was 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOM21HbOJNb
embarrassing. My hands were now curled into fists as they rested on my 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA8k4DXXJ5ga
laps.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAQLFpMMSQOS
"Sorry, that came out wrong," I said.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAXu1ibtqVEC
"Well, you did catch us by surprise by saying that," said Taeyang.1060Please respect copyright.PENANANX2aIIR6yo
I really did. Something 1060Please respect copyright.PENANADV0qM5zeMt
had gone totally wrong with me and I could feel it. My thoughts were 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAP0pmSucMP0
spinning in my head and I felt like I had no control over how I felt.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAGnqSBYAtiP
"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.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJVw0pXcR2g
I quickly closed the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAESAFHtuwjf
door immediately I stepped in the ladies' room, leaning my back against 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAMazVHXlIyn
the door. My hands flew to my hair and I took a deep breath. I walked 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAX6pof9m5kk
over to the sink and stared at myself in the mirror.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAEbUOsZDuED
"What's wrong with you today?" I asked my reflection.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAGdERopwXTE
I shook my head and I 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAP8cNcwGsFK
knew I wasn't alright. Something was definitely wrong. Was it the fact 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAip6iu89qhD
that Zoey and G-Dragon were together? As far as I know, I wasn't really 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAnlVhex8YkF
supposed to care. But I did.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA8rhrbw5qsw
I looked at myself and I1060Please respect copyright.PENANALCDCXuE1Eg
could see the sadness in my eyes. Were they for G-Dragon? I shook my 1060Please respect copyright.PENANADDNYoKUtRT
head at the thought. No. They weren't. He and I were still at war with 1060Please respect copyright.PENANABUvvntbz1a
each other and that made no sense. I had to stop thinking about these 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAI0bwZeM0gc
things and focus on what's really important.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAiiFE4UD221
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.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAUxHDCmhRMy
"Are you okay, Sam?" Mike asked as I sat back down.1060Please respect copyright.PENANARwacpLTcvG
"Ya, I am. I just feel horrible that I said that."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAmQWUExpxAa
"We think we know why you did," said Christine.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAfrsam8Syax
I gulped. What had these1060Please respect copyright.PENANA8hvSbewQqW
guys thought of now? If it was what I thought it was, I would rather 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAHy6i6eNcnN
not hear it. There was a moment of silence at the table.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA9dLKSmjuxE
"Zoey has you so worked up that you're irritated," said TOP.1060Please respect copyright.PENANABXjjXgdIFm
That was not what I was expecting. I was wide eyed and in my heart, feeling a little relieved.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAMlD9WSbisD
"Ya, I remember when we were coming here in the plane and Collins told you to watch over Christine and Zoey," said Mike.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA4T8rcILXNy
"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.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAvnqgRHat2n
While Christine was one 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOFfR2gjlMd
who at least had her hormones in check, Zoey and I were pretty much 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAYtHGGyuCTc
guilty. I couldn't tell who was worse between either of us. I bet I was 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAonWlJs5acv
worse.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAvnHwBD2OYE
"Well, I guess I'm also guilty myself like Zoey," I said, admitting to everyone.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAT7EMDEmgTt
"If you mean TOP flirting around with you, then trust me, you're not," said Daniel.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAjH7xJky8N2
"Hey!" TOP looked a little annoyed but rather amused. He ended up laughing.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAxbkKhHpILR
"And me calling you my panda," said Seungri, with a smirk.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAprLlsr6IWx
"You see, Sam, people just like you," said Mike. "And these guys shouldn't dare make a move of kissing you."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJ4C14hwDMl
I blushed. "Mike!"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAEriGkYIhaK
"Don't worry, he is just being protective over his sister," said Daesung, laughing.1060Please respect copyright.PENANATbfEDsQvzx
"I've tried kissing 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAdLeKZnYJL5
her," TOP challenged as he looked over at my brothers. He raised an 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAHefFn1lito
eyebrow. "What are you going to do about that?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAfWD6nznNfn
"Uhh, if I were you, I 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA9w7Jw73OBJ
wouldn't challenge them, TOP," I said as put my hand on his shoulder, 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA7FzEK2fzPa
looking over at my brothers who looked set on tearing TOP apart. And I 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA4H8GdFkJKK
caught a glimpse of Daesung rolling his eyes at TOP. "You would end up 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAM1GCauHkue
regretting it."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAbyRYLyXpJp
"True," said Christine, nodding her head at TOP. "These boys are like monsters you can't beat. Only Sam can handle them."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAHK4ojjxxpx
I looked over at Christine with a look that said 'that's not true.' Christine shrugged.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAlpIdsnblWl
"Fine, I'll listen to 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkJFcd5rM86
you ladies," said TOP as he looked at Christine and I. "Most especially 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAwPKmeVSLJX
because Sam says so." He gave me that killer bad boy smile of his and I 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAsjVvC2hyXG
blushed.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAIEfh9KIP1T
"Well, we better go," said Taeyang.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAyVldvYpriJ
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.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAyYo9nbhPs6
After TOP paid the bill, we left the restaurant with the paparazzi taking pictures as we walked out.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA1ms921CJru
We got to YG just in 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAPxfQFXAPPq
time. I just hoped that Zoey and G-Dragon were back here. I didn't want 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAsp0BnRUfP5
Collins on my throat and giving him the eye, wasn't going to help.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkDfRVMda2m
When we got to the studio, we found G-Dragon.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAlYEjgkXG9h
"Hey, where did you two disappear to?" Christine asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA51k2ydR8WO
"We just went out," said G-Dragon as he looked around the room.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAPozUP510B3
I couldn't help but feel1060Please respect copyright.PENANADcIkWhUiIA
that something was wrong, just by the look on his face. "What's wrong?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAYFeM2jMITO
I asked him with my eyebrow raised.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAqxMUT70469
"Huh?" He appeared to be absent minded. Was he looking for something?1060Please respect copyright.PENANAbTfUuOPRy7
"I was asking what's wrong with you? And where is Zoey?" I asked as I also looked around.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAmHj0w9GRIX
"That's the thing," said G-Dragon. "I can't find her."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA9TmAq7G5H0
I felt something inside 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAL3CqKSIpev
me break and my eyes bulged out of their sockets ready to fall out. I 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAgJu9Xek241
couldn't believe what I was hearing.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAqlF0qTLe06
"Are you for real?" Taeyang asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAm9VF1BLcCz
"I'm serious," said G-Dragon.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAfLu9UmfjLq
"Wait, do you mean you 'lost' her?" Mike asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAecnI8bFxHA
"I didn't lose her, I just can't find her."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA3wbT54hsok
"That sounds more like losing her to me," said Daniel.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAADMY7Uip7S
"You guys aren't helping!" G-Dragon exclaimed throwing his hands in the air in frustration.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAVSjerRwq0s
"Where were you guys first of all?" Seungri asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANANfTPxTwH14
"We first went to have lunch then the two of us went to the park."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAF4fbWyyWoJ
"Then?" TOP asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAq3Jz1cUNTR
"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."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAfnjCSPDNa1
"Are you sure?" Daesung asked. "Did you look everywhere for her?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANA4LH4D0WisI
"I did. I even asked people around and they hadn't seen her. I thought she would be back here."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAa6k2LHCpJM
"That would be unusual, given that Zoey doesn't really know the city so well," said Taeyang.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAg4S49nK4h3
"But where could she be?" Christine asked looking as worried as I was.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAiNWOyaUuho
"Try calling her," said Seungri, turning to Christine.1060Please respect copyright.PENANARCdJ39rSOn
"I just hope she is okay," I said as I rubbed my neck.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAvU9G4MWSWU
"What are we going to do with Collins?" Mike asked looking at me.1060Please respect copyright.PENANALtYEo0seS0
"I don't know," I said. "Hey, do me a favour and try to call the hotel and see if Zoey is there."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAeUC3xYljVA
"Sure thing," said Mike as he pulled out his phone.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAfk2n2rrQ5S
"Her phone is off," said Christine her phone in her hand.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAsXQ3HHbm5C
"Oh, no, this isn't good," said TOP.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAsl1EsGnVm8
"Again, Zoey is putting us into more problems."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA7Mrzwi2Mcr
I couldn't help but 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAzQfnCtOm7n
wonder why she went off like that. Something wasn't right. Was G-Dragon 1060Please respect copyright.PENANACaWzbWOaDL
not telling us what was really going on?1060Please respect copyright.PENANA5q8O4YdF9h
"No one has seen Zoey go into the hotel," Mike announced.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAlcnPzj2nRK
"We're goners," said Seungri as he dropped himself on the couch.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOZuxCOi40X
"We've to look for her," said TOP.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAeXhJXHi0cC
"But where can we start looking?" Daniel asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANArKbJDK0fay
"I don't know, but we have to go and find her," I said.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA72knzc3BDn
"And we have to do something with Collins," said Taeyang.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAq267eAJqir
"Did someone say my name?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAyZDhHbBtzj
I cringed. He was one 1060Please respect copyright.PENANARemIqQinyY
person I wasn't ready to face right now. Everyone else wasn't ready to 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAF9G1Kydw6r
either. We slowly turned to look behind us and Collins stood there with 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAbHIZNCPbtq
the music producer.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAFXDDvMopvB
"Why are you all looking worried like someone has gone missing?" Collins asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA6GNSv7lZlU
I sighed. If only he knew. But if he does find out, he wasn't going to forgive us that easily.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAx1AzAjJ2A9
Collins looked on at us, waiting to answer him. What to do now! We were going to be in such big trouble.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOU6L4Db7pr
"Looks like you aren't 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA7zmLogtCs0
going to answer me, so let's get back to work," said Collins turning 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAzFOLUDAA29
away from us and heading towards the console.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAWg7XrvtBZP
"We will work on the backup vocals," said Collins. "Zoey, Sam and Christine, you're up."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAPATAs9vChW
I looked at the others 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAEZ2SzxQIbI
who hadn't said a word. We all looked at each other. Someone had to do 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAVMRjQH3k9y
something or else we would be toast.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA24CGQoMA0a
"Are we going to start?" Collins asked looking behind him as he turned on his chair. "Where is Zoey?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAvMm464aBr4
It was about time he noticed. It looks like we ourselves weren't ready to tell him that Zoey is missing.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAa6EEcUdAJC
"What's wrong with you, guys? Why aren't you saying anything?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAnrL006avSH
"Zoey isn't here," said Mike.1060Please respect copyright.PENANANm1Lk58wPA
"Ya, I can see that. Where is she?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANA7JTPUnkgth
"She wasn't feeling too well," I said. "So she went back to the hotel."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA68cFNXzhf7
"What? Did she eat something bad for lunch?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAAFvJbf2T7O
"Ya. She did," said G-Dragon.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAWi8kPXLTBx
"So, do you think we should continue or do this tomorrow when Zoey is around?" I asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAaGwuudOFGa
"We should just do this tomorrow," the music producer suggested, turning to Collins.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA6iUhYw4Os3
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.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAtDmEYIqhC7
"Fine," said Collins. "We really need Zoey, so we should just do it tomorrow."1060Please respect copyright.PENANASJWfZz8CLG
Mike and Daniel almost 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAESjbWNfxyk
jumped with relief but they managed to control themselves. Christine 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA3U5svBTwgc
turned around so that Collins and the music producer wouldn't notice her1060Please respect copyright.PENANAtvZkBnzYqg
sighing in relief. The rest of us just stood there, pocker faced.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAv6Oy20vclm
"That's fine," said Taeyang.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJPcZM7gH5N
"I really wanted us to be done with this today," said Collins.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAlDP2WaWu6K
"Looks like it wasn't meant to be," said TOP.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAUrEC0QPQnH
Ya. It wasn't meant to be. Looks like we were lucky. That meant we could look around for Zoey.1060Please respect copyright.PENANALp7cPH4PlW
"You guys can go back to the hotel and make sure Zoey is okay," said Collins.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAhFz9pI6dbJ
"I'll go," said Christine. "The others can stay here if they want to."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA9XvTm6DuCd
Christine was doing the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANANYVuGH8u4Z
right thing. If she went to the hotel, Collins wouldn't be so suspicious1060Please respect copyright.PENANAgcpWSIdQy6
of what's going on and just in case he decides to go back there at 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAGHuAzWrhMV
anytime, Christine might cover up for Zoey.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAGGZ9owIB0D
"Okay and what will the rest of you all be doing?" Collins asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAZCZ75eya49
"Chilling," G-Dragon and I replied at the same time. We both looked at each other afterwards.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAGonD2QfNUD
"Fine, I have some other things to attend to. I might just go and check up on Lee and Yang Hyun-suk."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAym4Q5gpiBP
I wanted to ask where, 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAboS4n8gsm5
but I knew it was none of my business. I realised that I hadn't seen Lee1060Please respect copyright.PENANA5l0E1GxVqG
the whole day. Must be she was busy with Yang Hyun-suk. Collins and the1060Please respect copyright.PENANAB4UNLLPapN
music producer soon left.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAvEta3DLVj7
I walked over to the door and checked if Collins and the music producer were in the hall. But they were gone.1060Please respect copyright.PENANANLujtFlCIX
"Looks like we have to split up and look for Zoey," said Taeyang.1060Please respect copyright.PENANACtu8z7a2Xl
"Ya, we should," I 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAozDgGEOjFX
nodded my head. "G-Dragon and I will take Christine to the hotel just in1060Please respect copyright.PENANAAshmZWPfAu
case Zoey shows up and if Collins decides to go there."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAA0I610XlJc
"I'll go with Taeyang," said Daniel.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAo8oRTbmYFq
"And I go with Seungri," said Mike.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAFUxWYmOzII
"That leaves Daesung and I," said TOP.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAUdAaatxZif
"Great, let's go," I said and we all walked out of the room.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAAYmgh7yVus
As soon as we left the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAVEcZ6uzCKn
YG building, we split up in the parking lot. Luckily, Collins had 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA93gW0wGAYc
already left. Christine and I went with G-Dragon in his car. It was 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAPEvPQs5a5U
important that I had to talk to G-Dragon concerning Zoey.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAGJH5KX65nQ
We soon arrived at the hotel and Christine got out of the car. I gave her my phone for it to be charged.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA6MNhx06lZR
"Call us if anything good happens," I said I looked at Christine through the window.1060Please respect copyright.PENANApvhcZVPRag
"And what if something bad happens?" Christine asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAAJ9FTy9xkh
"Like Collins? You can handle it," I said as I gave her a smile. Christine winked and wished us luck.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAD6LRdteQKz
G-Dragon drove away and 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAD75iRBPJwg
we first went to the park where he came with Zoey after lunch. I just 1060Please respect copyright.PENANALSYozFExZL
hope she didn't go that far and that she was okay.1060Please respect copyright.PENANARWJOoDQFSd
"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.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAMTt96vLjaN
"What?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAnopZ3qUwUd
"Did you two argue?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAexrJpEmaYQ
"No, we didn't," said G-Dragon as he went around me and started walking towards the park.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOiri5dEzuC
I quickly turned and followed him. When I caught up with him, I stood in front of him to stop him.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAD3Iu8IZJTL
"Are you telling me the truth?" I asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkrxafQN3XL
"Do you think I am lying?" G-Dragon asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAe2MkTpzmZF
"I think so." I said with my arms folded.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAzObHIbA4TR
"You're crazy," said G-Dragon as he walked around me again.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAHyvSLOzTrh
I huffed. He wasn't going to budge. I had to try something to get the truth out of him.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAItXF0Txt3W
With quick strides, I 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAzQvnpXmm8Y
caught up with him again. This time I started to walk backwards so that I1060Please respect copyright.PENANAoaYLFiZMaR
could look at him directly in his face.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAYNhIYWLKB1
"What are you doing?" G-Dragon asked as he looked at me, puzzled.1060Please respect copyright.PENANASbMHXmNGv2
"I want you to tell me the truth."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA5OcUan3Jjw
"You're stressing yourself out by walking backwards."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAuoSWzi2Yla
"Do I care?" I raised an eyebrow at him. "I know you're hiding something from me."1060Please respect copyright.PENANADojbyUuZOs
G-Dragon chuckled and 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOXYDFnMJwU
that almost made me smile. "Stop playing detective, my little kitty. As 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA9NOp7cLJ73
much as it suits you, you're going to trip over and fall."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA3lsfT0RuZk
"Then you have to stop me from walking backwards by answering my question."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAKZnOS3veC1
"This is one silly method of interrogation if you ask me."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAnQJNNWtaRx
"I can tell you're not telling me something. Zoey can't just leave like that without someone upsetting her."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAXPCXmA08yA
"And how do you know?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANA3Y8TUKFA3x
"I'm her best friend. 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAQC56TykZ9V
And plus, whenever someone gets her really upset, she runs off without 1060Please respect copyright.PENANArxiNC9lRvs
telling anyone. She always wants be alone to think."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAPHJXuHRGyF
"I hope she doesn't think of committing suicide."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAX3UYZWxfcA
"Zoey can't end her 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAMffEvpddbH
life. Well, she hasn't tried to anyway. She's leaving the dream right 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAAZCEFAyXYS
now and ending her life this early, isn't going to sound right. Unless 1060Please respect copyright.PENANACNRXnMdElM
you did something."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkeZn9xgfZc
"Me?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANASF6DW6syTh
"Da! Yes, you!"1060Please respect copyright.PENANALWRY0pfa8q
"What could I possibly have done for Zoey to try and commit suicide?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANA7RlORzNJNB
"Don't talk about suicide like that." I hit him on the arm.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAjgzbX8naBK
"Ouch!" G-Dragon stopped and held his arm. "That hurts!"1060Please respect copyright.PENANARKK3KxdGLF
"Well, you deserve it. Now tell me the truth." I put my hands on my hips.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAYn3jj47ByQ
"I'm telling you, Zoey and I didn't argue."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAlr2FDhMgcu
G-Dragon looked me in the eye and he seemed really convincing.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA8qayJVml4u
"Okay. I believe you," I said. "But you must have said something that upset her."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA4SIvaGzSmg
"I can't really remember what I had said to her. Maybe she just left on her own."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJM1pWZIult
"And with her phone off, that's a bit strange, don't you think?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAKxvBVLKijC
"When we find her we will ask why she ran off."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAGSoe95II8Y
"Ya. Sure."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAroYiaH3p3W
"Now, will you please 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAAlKdEAcMDI
stop walking backwards? I don't want you to trip and save you from 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAhDhW7kgfIB
falling. That will spark rumours again like it did during the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAPKRHYXU91M
interview."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAvnUENkqQ3j
I didn't say anything, 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAqUseQ4DNq2
so I just nodded my head and faced forward. We went further into the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA3FeZRfxRor
park and as we looked around for Zoey, we sparked some attention from 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAnADO4gTwql
our darling fans. We signed a few autographs and took a few pictures and1060Please respect copyright.PENANADUNuLDvRAs
went on with our search. We even asked some fans if they had seen Zoey,1060Please respect copyright.PENANAVJ8inrNw6W
but nothing.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAqPIK9LiajH
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.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAFcKMmO7Zu8
"Are you tired already?" G-Dragon asked as he looked down on me.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAy9JmI5h3EG
"I'm not," I said as I 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA6TsKMcgN8V
removed my slippers and felt comfortable with my bare feet on the grass.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAb1SntW9GZ6
"I'm trying to figure out where Zoey could be."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAaPrdxhcLyL
G-Dragon sat down beside1060Please respect copyright.PENANAHWfqeNyHl0
me and the two of us were silent, looking at the pond. Laughter filled 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAZFLKBOHqMn
my ears as I saw a group of kids playing from across the pond. Some 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAZUhlFuJC3v
couples also sat on the grass close to the pond. It was such a beautiful1060Please respect copyright.PENANAdfcVjYKmBz
day and sitting by the pond felt so relieving.1060Please respect copyright.PENANArPEiIHcC2z
"Have you figured something yet?" G-Dragon asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAiTNpaliMFp
I frowned and looked at him. "No, why do you ask?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAheCfeIn5Ej
"You seem to be smiling to yourself," said G-Dragon as he looked at me.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAgYy3An8Nva
"No, I'm actually enjoying what I'm experiencing right now."1060Please respect copyright.PENANABPW0GoIexd
"You love nature, don't you?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAdkjQsjSok4
I closed my eyes, still smiling. "Ya. I really do."1060Please respect copyright.PENANACgdJHvqXaw
At that moment, I was so1060Please respect copyright.PENANAXGl1ZZThz8
caught in the little world inside my head. For a moment, I forgot about1060Please respect copyright.PENANAHoLh8nVanh
everything. About looking for Zoey, being famous, and the whole world 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAFqyV0MOkA4
with everyone and everything in it. It's like they never existed because1060Please respect copyright.PENANA9tLT5ubhJ0
even the noise around me seemed non existent.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAbsqTI94nfM
Then I felt something 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAolbZNejfcb
brush against my hand like a soft feather. The touch brought me back to 1060Please respect copyright.PENANALz1AEohoWK
reality and I quickly opened my eyes. I looked beside me and G-Dragon 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA1IvcaJ55iI
was staring at me.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA7FDG35btmd
"What?" I asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAUYyTVBp37L
"Has anyone ever told you how beautiful you are?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAoN9Kt3A5Ns
I blushed all of the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANArJz6d8WjOD
sudden and I looked down. His hand covered mine and for a moment I 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAqBVjensFim
wanted to pull away. But then again, I couldn't explain how I felt with 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAix0z1KetCw
his hand on mine. I felt this weird comfort.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAKkMMP6WbFv
I would have said yes to1060Please respect copyright.PENANA2WEKvx0aFG
his question, but no words came out. This wasn't right. As much as I 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAiYYuHffIDl
wanted him close to me, I knew I would end up getting hurt because we 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAuTryWcQlzx
were never meant to be.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAY4YJ4g6uGd
"Umm," I pulled my hand away and put it closer to my body. "Please don't say that GD."1060Please respect copyright.PENANApDCLaKwVGv
"Why?" He asked softly.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAXx9DHKZEIb
"Because this isn't right at all and you know it."1060Please respect copyright.PENANACuNOxd6hKR
"What do you mean?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAhTP5u5ljCh
"You know that I ready know about Zoey and you. You guys are more like a couple."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA9ZHAI74CZ7
"So?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAF0lKgyYEoF
"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."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAB4FANVAnUq
"Looks like you figured out that I don't really like Zoey as such as I like you."1060Please respect copyright.PENANATUOQ5rl4xN
I didn't say anything as I continued to figure out what to say next.1060Please respect copyright.PENANARQKNH347p7
"Then why are you leading Zoey on? She doesn't deserve this, you know?" I asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAu8s8bgHSpr
"I know."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAvdR93o6KmU
"Then why are you doing this?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOtzjC9J6bw
G-Dragon looked at me like he never had before. He soon looked away and sighed.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAQJ3aZfzb5C
"I'm doing this because of you, Sam. But even if I do so, I still can't get you out of my head."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAAC7T1cd3k3
I also looked the other way, trying to act like those words hadn't affected me. But they did and they did so badly.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAz1V0B29L6d
"You should find another1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOh9WTdIG1D
way to do so, GD." I turned to look back at him and he faced me. "But 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAgzEnx4fwCk
not with Zoey. I don't want her getting hurt because of the both of us. I1060Please respect copyright.PENANA2K7fhVgKKW
will never forgive myself."1060Please respect copyright.PENANArpE3EsGNZp
G-Dragon nodded his head. "I'll do so."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJ8rcaRTDOk
I wanted to smile but I 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAz4uZCVFNN7
couldn't bring myself to do it. I hoped he kept his word and maybe with 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAsjYgNpIEEJ
this little talk we've had, we would be friends again and stop acting 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAFaGfVoomSf
like we had beef with each other.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAEA96clAFya
Just as I was about to 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAQS1bpnZl2i
ask him why he had been giving me the attitude lately and if it had 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAtqdsBhQRzY
anything to do with his jealousy, his phone rang. He quickly removed it 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAarfLEYxSXx
from his pocket and answered it.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAXZhAk9ClzQ
"Hello? Christine?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAp1Oewv1NPL
I was now attentive. Had she found Zoey? I wished I could have talked to her myself.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAnpGNmNOpe6
"Okay, we will be right there. Inform the others as well."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAFVKrPJ2QjX
"What happened?" I asked after he cut the call.1060Please respect copyright.PENANABxZMAuNwAW
"Christine called to tell me that she knows where Zoey is."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA1u7brlWufa
"Where is she?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkKOpmf9Z9f
"She is at a famous café. I know where it is."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAlUqeKmZ13W
"But how did Christine know where Zoey is?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAbGoxL75DiM
"Zoey's phone went back on and she texted where she was. And she is not alone."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAcPQ5vspsYH
"Who is she with?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANA24HDejms8B
"We're about to find out. Let's go."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAzVMP4K0J95
G-Dragon got up from the1060Please respect copyright.PENANArEPZJG2vne
ground and he held out his hand to me. I took it and he pulled me up 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAt8uJZZy4on
from the ground. We left the park together, heading towards his car.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAd7Masx7eF0
When we got in his car, 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAcgHHAa4lS7
we drove through the city and we arrived at this small fancy café. We 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAKMNGwyAm2G
parked across the street and before we could get out of the car, I 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA2xzIpe93F7
looked across towards the café.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAp3ZjUhLY76
"Can you see, Zoey?" G-Dragon asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAPwmt7qBAyh
Through the huge window,1060Please respect copyright.PENANAcM0ADZPB92
I could see what was going on inside. Looked like a lot of people 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAwEgrMiQFBx
enjoyed coming over to the café. The place was parked for an ordinary 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJAeQYbgpoH
day in the afternoon.1060Please respect copyright.PENANApyIbk46f70
I searched for Zoey, but1060Please respect copyright.PENANAPZAzcpZQgF
I couldn't see her. It was then that I saw Zoey at the far corner of 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA8KChWlJLwV
the café. She was facing the window side and I saw her with someone. 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAHJyAdU9Wb0
Sitting opposite her was a man in a fancy looking black suit. From afar,1060Please respect copyright.PENANARjF11YPf2T
I could tell his suit was expensive and I couldn't see his face.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJmCPfi6Urr
"I see her," I said. "And she is definitely with someone."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAsdU8eSQvWk
"Who is it?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAcSAg7RlM5g
"I don't know. By the look of his suit, he seems like a business man or one rich tycoon."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA66hueBvMb4
"Seriously?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANA3W5Nfydiyp
"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?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAKkGQQfZYfK
G-Dragon looked towards the windshield, avoiding my gaze. "No, I'm not. I'm just wondering who it was, that's all."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAslZ8vkBQPn
I rolled my eyes and 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAoFUN8rQp3P
said nothing more. I went back to looking at the café and focused on 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAk8WgtiSHxC
Zoey. I decided to read her body language and see if she was okay. She 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAEBd2PaHwCS
looked like she was enjoying herself, chatting with this stranger.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAmzwvo651sr
She was sipping her cup 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAHbrVTWt0xn
of coffee and she went back to smiling at the stranger. Something was a 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAvbjItpSJ88
bit off and I shifted on my seat to see if I was seeing right.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJGjdDGKsWK
"Hey, is something wrong?" G-Dragon asked, noticing my tension.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJ96HC9fngJ
"Ya."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJzVxxUqeYT
G-Dragon also turned on his seat and looked through the window.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAr9Sb55pNDi
Zoey's smile made me 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAAw5YleBKYP
wonder what was going on. She was smiling and chatting but she looked a 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkm59JFlRZc
little nervous. Usually when she is with a guy, she was always the one 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA1tlHITl5r3
who was never scared of leading the conversation and became pretty1060Please respect copyright.PENANA4ZDkPo5jIr
comfortable with the person. Unless the guy was creepy enough to be a serial killer.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOW0rOKTBtL
I felt a threat coming 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAKBliIxcBOq
up. Was this guy dangerous? Zoey had a nervous smile on her face and if I1060Please respect copyright.PENANAqsJjeCxQF6
was not mistaken, I think I noticed her fingers tap frantically on the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAEHHIGcM8S8
table. She did that whenever she was nervous. I had to know what was 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAsijlNjt2fy
going on in there.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA6EJibIpLwa
"Let's go," I said as I turned to look at G-Dragon. "I'm not liking this."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAeH2Jf2r2Gg
"Thank you," said G-Dragon, looking relieved. "I had a bad feeling about this guy."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAns9GBTnv3u
"Ya, right," I said as I grabbed the handle of the door, opened it and stepped out.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAHhz3nVWOjW
Just as G-Dragon came 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkQuftshqvY
out of the car, three cars appeared off the main road and came to park 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAsFghO5OalA
in the parking space behind G-Dragon's car. The others had arrived.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAvvxlI6Fep0
"Christine told us to meet you here," said Taeyang as he and Mike came out of his car.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAP57Q5hPK8E
"Zoey's in the café," I said as I pointed across the road.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAWVXa3nDjxy
"Alright, let's go," said Seungri.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAAVrafkQ8BG
When I looked back at the café window, I noticed that Zoey was all alone on her table. That was odd. Where was he?1060Please respect copyright.PENANA0QhmMtWEWA
"Oh, no, no, no," I said staring wide eyed inside the café.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAh7x6ugwjP5
"What is it, Sam?" Daesung asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA27POtFYcYv
I didn't answer him as I1060Please respect copyright.PENANAyg33U6uQFp
quickly dashed across the road without even checking for any cars. I 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAIIPPmREmrd
could hear the others behind call out to me to be careful. I luckily 1060Please respect copyright.PENANATlSVY6paP0
managed to reach the café without getting hit.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAbj5Kshh0lH
When I got to the café, a1060Please respect copyright.PENANAmuEYfyATfp
few people came out through the door. None of them matched the person 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAjIMj1hvLW5
who was in the café with Zoey. I quickly went in and I found Zoey still 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkHcI4JvWtu
sitting in the corner. I rushed over to her that my presence scared her.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAocVVw5NvRk
"Sam! You scared me to death!" Zoey held her chest as she breathed in and out so heavily, trying to calm down.1060Please respect copyright.PENANACD6YKKqYeL
"Where did you go?" I asked, taking the seat the stranger had been sitting on earlier.1060Please respect copyright.PENANACdzOwgBb5r
"Oh, I...um.." Zoey played with her fingers.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAq5xRh6zKYA
"Don't you dare try to 1060Please respect copyright.PENANASN7UPjMo9k
lie to me, Zoey," I threatened. "You went with GD for lunch and the two 1060Please respect copyright.PENANANgYUkl0Jej
of you went to the park. When GD went to get ice cream, you had 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAPgjhTkWt43
disappeared. And the next thing we know, you're here."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAqmTF3n65pQ
"Christine told you where I was?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAgoTVycVlKg
"Of course she had to. We were worried sick."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAEFE0DfprSX
I heard the bell of the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAtwOqXk98kN
café ring and I knew the others had arrived. They soon came over by the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAB5LbpW2UWe
table. Only Taeyang, G-Dragon and Daniel were the ones who came in.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAKkkxwDAXfo
"Zoey where have you been?" Daniel asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAwIKcE8hfGW
"And who was that guy you were with, huh?" G-Dragon asked, looking down at Zoey with a frown on his face.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOsbQezjmPp
"Awww, are you jealous, my G-Dragon?" Zoey smiled at him.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJMJAJadkJp
"Stop taking all this 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAM3HuRDucxy
like a joke, Zoey. I saw the way you were behaving with him. You weren't1060Please respect copyright.PENANAbeQKbn0rM9
yourself when I saw you from across the street," I said.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAH6iLe098MZ
The smile on Zoey's face1060Please respect copyright.PENANAWvbk28EI1u
disappeared in an instant. Good. Maybe now she would take us seriously.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAKDuepXSWqD
Her safety was way more important than she could ever imagine. If 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOIoayaL4Y9
anything had happened to her, a lot of us here would never forgive 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAAVprJ3YvTd
ourselves.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA2Xw0YMWIwQ
"Can we please get out of here?" Taeyang suggested. "This isn't the place to discuss this."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA5zRCVkNJLF
"You're right," I said 1060Please respect copyright.PENANABEmoETMD2E
as I looked around the café and many heads were turning our way. I hated1060Please respect copyright.PENANAcZcgnQRCHd
attracting so much attention sometimes.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAMRVckRQJld
The others had started 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAHUO4zb2ql8
to leave and Zoey and I both stood up from the table. I noticed the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkTyYAV0gTX
teacup the stranger had used and my mind still couldn't stop thinking 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAFvUPrZcj23
about who he was.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA7kfqI6UC5r
After we left the café, 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA5ChRz6L61d
we went back across the road where the vehicles were parked. Daesung, 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAiouzDmNpkb
TOP, Mike and Daesung stood waiting for us.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA6hhSA81mgm
"Thank goodness, you're alright, Zoey," said Daesung.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA38mbrU8p0x
"Ya, thank goodness you weren't lost," said Mike. "We wondered if we would find you in a ditch or something."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAdqiJNOaaQq
Zoey frowned at Mike and all he could do was smile back at her mischievously.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAgyvPFQYyXE
"Let's all go back to the hotel, shall we?" I suggested. "Zoey can tell us everything from there."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkw4nBCJYuv
Zoey and I went in 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA0yfsi8zxok
G-Dragon's car making sure I sat in the backseat. The others got in the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkY73Si1G9e
other cars and we drove off, G-Dragon's car leading the way.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAHfVSBjrCnB
We were all back in the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANACb3eScyp5n
hotel on our floor. Luckily, Collins wasn't around. I was relieved. Now I1060Please respect copyright.PENANAN4EXeOPE7Y
could vent out all my anger on Zoey.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAgcDR2mmiNC
We gathered ourselves in1060Please respect copyright.PENANAxGFJ6F5C3v
the lounge. The others sat on the couch and made themselves 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAfsRtlCuQMM
comfortable. Zoey and I were left standing and I looked at her, with my 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAtGfA1YRPyW
hands on my hips.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAHw6k3wmD55
"Okay, let's start with why you disappeared?" I asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAMxHNEqe9oq
"No, don't ask that," said G-Dragon. "Ask who she was with first."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAdSiUdINGGB
"I'm the one asking the questions." I turned to face G-Dragon. "I want to know what made her go like that."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAtZHsd9VsfU
"Fine, I tell you," said1060Please respect copyright.PENANAavKEhJcJiv
Zoey raising her hand to calm me down. "G-Dragon went over to get some 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAhqh0mnlk8I
ice cream when a person came up to me. Said he was my biggest fan."1060Please respect copyright.PENANARM8KJPJKOA
"Don't tell me you fell for the person's good looks like always," said Christine shaking her head.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA5Z3sFj2lFe
"You know handsome men are my weakness," said Zoey. "Sorry G-Dragon."1060Please respect copyright.PENANArZ3cHw3c3l
"No, I don't mind," said1060Please respect copyright.PENANAwJXurU06nW
G-Dragon, shaking his head. I looked at him again and I was surprised 1060Please respect copyright.PENANADsLBYgiqRM
with the look on his face that he really didn't mind at all.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAdwf6NGFkcy
"So, he said he is your biggest fan and then what?" Taeyang asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAAZKia2IGCs
"He offered that the two of us go out for some coffee," said Zoey. "That's how I left."1060Please respect copyright.PENANATn8yTcDcfT
"Now that makes no sense or maybe you have no sense, Zoey," said Seungri.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAllQfpXT3EB
"Huh?" Zoey looked at Seungri, looking embarrassed.1060Please respect copyright.PENANABeZBWbi1cp
"As much as that sounds 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAhtHdco85ST
totally embarrassing, Seungri is right," said Christine. "What you said 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAsC2qDbnDF7
doesn't make sense at all. How could you go out for coffee with someone 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAp4Zs4k2U35
you claims to be your fan without taking G-Dragon along with you?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAk81nZpy0Gd
I started to tap my foot1060Please respect copyright.PENANARgjFoIMoB6
and looked at Zoey, ready to breathe out fire if necessary. Christine 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAIbkr50opaM
was right and surprisingly, Seungri too. She wasn't telling us the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA6FFmvvp3Uq
truth.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAdRb7Yg2vv6
"Come on, Zoey, tell us 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAXtUZ1m5jwX
what really happened," I said. "You couldn't leave without GD. And you 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAsiXv5T9e7V
had your phone turned off. All I know about the person you were with is 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA3GYLmip8IO
that he was wearing an expensive black suit."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAzojvxVLKQW
"Okay, do you really want to know the truth?" Zoey asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA3nSm1u87ss
"Yes!" everyone replied at the same time, that almost made Zoey jump in fright.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA3Zjmq5Zq3g
"Okay, okay, eish," said1060Please respect copyright.PENANAI2xrcswCSo
Zoey. "You scared the hell out of me. The truth is, I went with my fan 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA6uzN9cI2eM
because he insisted that I go with him and not tell anyone about it."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOOH84nvdTD
"Huh?" TOP looked confused.1060Please respect copyright.PENANABJAor3oHPU
"What fan lays out that kind of condition?" Mike asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANACl4lTEa8jL
"Someone who was ready to take advantage of Zoey," I answered.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAUcSPAZKJJe
"If he did, you guys still wouldn't have found me," said Zoey.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAsBCV0xjEc6
"If he did, you wouldn't have been looking so nervous in the café."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAEOEJhKi4qj
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.1060Please respect copyright.PENANARfVWmsPzNW
"Then what were you two talking about?" I asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAIji9HPMkZW
"Just stuff," said Zoey, avoiding my eyes. "About me and my celebrity life."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA2R5NHXjuUp
"You're sure?" I asked. "Didn't he talk about himself?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAd2Al68FZGW
"Ya, totally." Zoey nodded her head. He never said anything about himself. Not even his name."1060Please respect copyright.PENANApYWIReJWan
"Then why did you look so nervous in the café?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAdiCVbV6lcC
"He was asking some personal questions I didn't like."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA1zOsvgSrQ7
"Are you sure?" Daniel 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAi914iV8kFq
asked. "When someone asks you a personal question, you either snap back 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAA8xJkWLkva
at them or walk away. Whether it's an annoying reporter, any of your 1060Please respect copyright.PENANASYQD9yXGbQ
haters or even us."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAsnvuuJy3Mp
Daniel was right. Zoey 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA8X0iICaOu5
would have stood and walked away from the stranger but she didn't. I 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA2ucJAYagcT
wondered what question he might have asked her. That's if Zoey was 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAt78JdRXaZl
telling the truth.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAMbJ31bchYy
"I didn't want to look so mean in front of him," said Zoey. "He seemed like a very nice guy."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAhwVwrZaJcZ
"A very nice guy that 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA8hooWuaX9A
made you run off with him, made you switch off your phone and made you 1060Please respect copyright.PENANANMeiagsMdk
so uncomfortable," said G-Dragon, looking really irritated.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA1ujRnxe14H
"Come on," said Zoey. "He wasn't that bad, seriously."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJhf7110dWz
I didn't want to 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAxmU17QUKcY
pressurise Zoey with more questions. Right now, she was getting away 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAfLgRKCC6ry
with it. If she was hiding something, I would find out sooner or later.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA5jXBpjO70I
"Okay," I said. "We're just glad you're fine."1060Please respect copyright.PENANALnOciw9fl3
"And not dead," said 1060Please respect copyright.PENANALG5bea2CTc
Mike with a smirk. Seungri and Christine who sat on either side of him, 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAhFcNsemzYc
both gave him the elbow in the side and he howled in pain.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAEX1i6age6X
"I'll pretend I never heard that," said Zoey.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAKznbYzF18D
"And you better get 1060Please respect copyright.PENANALqUDiHJT65
ready for Collins," I said giving Zoey a smirk of my own. "We told him 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAXPO8ONNQRq
you had a bad tummy ache and that's why you weren't at the studio."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAhwInnhzn4B
"Seriously?" Zoey gave me an angry stare. "Couldn't you have told him a better lie?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANA3yqtlW07yo
"That you were missing? Fat chance. You've already put some of us into enough trouble for one day."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA2WedzKVQfC
"Alright. Sorry. I won't do that again."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAqqYOvV2Tmx
I rolled my eyes, while shaking my head and went over to the dining table. Something told me it wouldn't be the last.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA9he8ANgTc5
"Well, now that you're found," said Daesung, as he stood up. "Some of us better get going."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAn3ttwhrI4q
"Sorry for putting you guys into so much trouble," said Zoey.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAGQx5Y8BQtB
"As long as you're fine and Collins isn't going to kill us, it's okay," said Taeyang with a smile.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAWo6AS5DvYb
"I'll be leaving too," said Seungri and he gave Zoey a hug and he walked over to hug me as well.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAhz3QSCclSc
"Alright, see you tomorrow," I said.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAUQFdgdSyTl
One by one the BigBang 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAnRrRlUM59V
members started to leave, saying bye to each other. G-Dragon stayed 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAaDKboqcwa9
behind with Zoey so that they could talk a little. Giving them privacy, 1060Please respect copyright.PENANANlEsBrwdgv
Christine, my brothers and I left for our rooms.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAVhy28X0krG
When I went in my room, I1060Please respect copyright.PENANAVoNDz3QTdb
went for my phone that was still charging on my bed. The phone was 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAxiJLXqhxyf
still off and I decided to switch it on. It was almost full.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA8OnhQOrH4E
There was a knock on the door and I called out to the person to come in. Christine entered.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAa1mhcU2ONr
"Hey, can we talk?" Christine asked as she closed the door behind her.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAGVEw5n0TLJ
"About what?" I turned to look at her.1060Please respect copyright.PENANACqizMHsyUW
"Do you really believe what Zoey told us?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAxvs7ahCfFU
"No, I don't." I sat on the bed.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAzUeS0BtLFZ
"Looks like I'm not the only one," said Christine as she came to sit on Zoey's bed, facing me.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAGWBDqod4zm
"I wonder why she isn't telling us the truth."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAv7bi70tiDG
"Did you see the man's face?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJns1FdYUrn
"No. All I could say is that he wore a fancy and expensive suit."1060Please respect copyright.PENANARHou1jHdEm
"I wonder who he is. Maybe he is some rich tycoon or something."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAUf0PjBPD6R
"That's what I thought too." I gave Christine a smile.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA11bONEC7wZ
"I bet he is good 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA8NcujRknqC
looking too. I still wonder why Zoey left like that without telling 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAGYIJd0ozZf
anyone. Do you think she really did all that just because the stranger 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAyoUowiDrs8
told her to?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAPLgAPUbN8K
"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?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANA1Z8Wq4VNMG
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."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA3XG05E87Jv
"You said so yourself, Christine. There is no other explanation. He might have blackmailed her or something."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOVBK8ettk9
"Okay, but blackmailed her with what?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAuDQrI0zbwi
"That we have to find out."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAxFse0NgMvH
I was just about to grab my phone and check out if I had any messages when Zoey came in the room.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA8iXlikOnZr
"Oh. Has GD left already?" Christine asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAx9HjYMxiXA
"Ya. He left," Zoey replied. I heard a bit of sadness in her voice.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAPQ039l1O0y
"Are you okay? You don't look alright," I said.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkmUzjLrAPz
"I'm fine. G-Dragon and I talked about something serious."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAu8obp7sUOu
Oh my. Had he told her 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAApQc0qY7nI
about what we had discussed earlier at the park? As much as I knew it 1060Please respect copyright.PENANACFjvsz8CBv
was going to hurt Zoey, it was for the best. Besides, she was going to 1060Please respect copyright.PENANARPIYUv9GWT
find someone way better than G-Dragon. Hopefully, even me.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAo2kbHxnhpj
"What did you talk about?" I asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA3n9mbJFTOZ
"He was just pissed that1060Please respect copyright.PENANAR2ZXR4U5XG
I left like that," Zoey answered. "He thought maybe he said something 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA97kzDE54Rs
that might have upset me or something."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAZIGBJNAG61
"Oh." That wasn't what I was expecting. "Well, I had asked him earlier if he had said something that might have upset you."1060Please respect copyright.PENANATZQlxWHhw8
"But he didn't."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAPsd7QLs2y7
"I see why Sam asked," 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOIJp8okMUT
said Christine. "When someone gets you so upset, you run away. You've 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAvWLCmisFMf
done that many times before back home during our school days, you know?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANALjN6kQ0j4T
"Ya I know. Forget about it." Zoey waved her hand in annoyance. "What's happened has happened."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAkpuA1aQwzn
And I hope it will never1060Please respect copyright.PENANAzpxvqaCAe1
happen again, but this guy in the suit still worried me. Until I know 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA4A5kv5jXor
who he is, I wasn't going to pretend that the worst has passed when it 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA6ClKO8YAUe
was yet to come at any moment.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAx9gNWUc33G
The next thing I knew, the door to our room flew open and Lee walked in.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAcykHYyOD7w
"Lee!" the three of us exclaimed in excitement.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAF6ROiJij1B
"Wow! Did you guys miss me?" Lee asked with a smile on her face.1060Please respect copyright.PENANANAA1tKSfOC
"Ya, we did," said Zoey, putting her arm over Lee's shoulders.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAtbiHQBQYdU
"Well, I missed you too," said Lee. "So, what happened today? I heard you never finished up on the song."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAHwUHuGW2jT
Christine, Zoey and I 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA0KxS9bbyjP
shook our heads and talked randomly at the same time, saying nothing 1060Please respect copyright.PENANABs7aA5JakL
really happened. Lee knew something was up and even if it could clearly 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAgJXLv1XGi7
show on her face, she didn't push us. She just smiled.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAA8kmpQoJHt
"Well, you'll tell me later," said Lee. "Collins and I were just....."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAz0GcYQGcB5
"Collins is here!" Zoey's face went white like a sheet.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAwhvINKvbGp
"Yes, he is," said Lee 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAhvUDRzRQoZ
with a wicked smile. "Now if you don't want to get into trouble, I 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAjXuMsVQb9V
suggest you go on your bed and cry out that you still aren't feeling 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAJohwtOfObn
well."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAvL4tcG82D9
Christine and I almost burst out laughing. Zoey frowned.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAdwYB1kwlmy
"Ha, ha, very funny," said Zoey as she went over to her bed and sat down.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAzO7OzE0J27
"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."1060Please respect copyright.PENANA9rQbJgqShm
"Us?" I asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAsyEZ9V5FWN
"Ya, the letter on the package was directed to The Toxins. It's with Collins in the lounge."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAET1C5SYLa9
Christine and I rushed 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAzodSScFm6Q
out of the room leaving Zoey with Lee. She had to pretend she was still 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAnn8lIwwxKY
not feeling well. We found Collins in the lounge with the package in his1060Please respect copyright.PENANAbb0tBjW5Yw
hand.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA5d3Oh0LHJ3
"Hey, Collins," I said. "What's that?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAGmCONczDum
"This came in for you guys," said Collins. "And with a letter too."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAyUyrXlBpLc
"Did I hear there is something for us?" Daniel asked as he and Mike came in the lounge.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAjVcJ0Is7Rj
"Ya. Here you go." Collins gave me the package.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAmQ59lzn9eB
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.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAnVr1AWl9vT
I took the letter and 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAuoWxRLk5UK
gave the package for Christine to hold and opened the envelope to remove1060Please respect copyright.PENANA73r8NbeURZ
a letter. I unfolded the letter and I read it out loud:1060Please respect copyright.PENANAa7B2tSE1qA
"Hope you're all okay. Just wanted to say I'm your biggest fan. With lots of love."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAip2jFePOgi
"That's it?" Mike asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAaAbkPv9NBO
"Ya, that's pretty much it," I said, looking behind the letter but there was nothing. "No name at all."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAm8HC17vQKU
"Did you see anyone who sent this?" Daniel asked Collins.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAylx2wgHJSy
"All that the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAsPOSgOgAds
receptionist told us was that some young man in a suit gave it to her 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAFgkaYaJiPx
and she should give either you guys or us when we came by the lobby."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAAoHX4CwbJQ
My eyes went wide and my1060Please respect copyright.PENANAjdN59aM2uN
heart pace quickened. Did Collins just say a young man in a suit? Maybe1060Please respect copyright.PENANAWlMs2Y6cee
I heard wrong and needed some clarification.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA9Ef1g9TZpx
"A young man in a suit?" Mike asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAXkW47CK8R3
"Ya. Do you perhaps know him?" Collins asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAaQH5sAKYB2
"Huh, no," said Christine, shaking her head.1060Please respect copyright.PENANANzCBZ7Rfmn
"Oh. For a moment there, you guys looked a little frightened," said Collins. "I thought you might know him."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAB7ZhpD27H1
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?1060Please respect copyright.PENANAnTI33GcK83
"Open it, Christine," said Daniel.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAsHsSj2Nvl2
Christine threw Daniel 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA4j55fzfYad
an angry glance. She obviously didn't want to open it and I knew what 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAXbrUfaMZRb
she was thinking. What if there was a bomb inside? Or maybe something to1060Please respect copyright.PENANAwnY26jt8cO
threaten or blackmail us? You could only think of the worst from a 1060Please respect copyright.PENANALvVsNrcnMt
person you barely even knew.1060Please respect copyright.PENANABd36sXRyH0
"Let me," I said as I took the package from Christine and I sat down on the couch with the package on my lap.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA5JxCtHjIkz
Collins was watching us for a second and then left the lounge. I sighed in relief and so did the others.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAy6dS4pERVw
"I thought he would never leave," Mike whispered after we heard the door to Collins' room open and close.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAFgBYbbICik
"Can you check if he is really in his room?" I asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAAIGKhUymoc
Mike went in the hall and came back seconds later. "He is in the room."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAbMZRvptXAP
"I'm really nervous," said Christine. "What is in there?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAxXPpT8j7Er
"I don't know," said Daniel. "I hope it is nothing that could kill us."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAyRPyikiehC
Mike hit Daniel at the back of his head and Daniel whined in pain.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAhYerSNJ1uZ
"Don't say that," said Mike. "I don't want to die soon."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAwmqvNoDgkn
"Guys, calm down," I said. "Let's just open this thing and see what's in it."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAuUzlKmtEJi
"Okay, but take your 1060Please respect copyright.PENANApaKQ64jMP4
time," said Christine. "If there is a bomb in there, I want to say my 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAcT6rzhEIKS
last prayers before I leave this earth."1060Please respect copyright.PENANAc12WsPP12x
I rolled my eyes but I 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAFLbpkYUZRl
was as scared as the rest of them. If we were to make out of this alive,1060Please respect copyright.PENANA9GdMVnKsHs
I was going to kill Zoey myself for dragging us into this mess.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAfzUGKva2aP
I started to unwrap the package. It was a white box.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAR1Km5pD8Qf
The other three couldn't1060Please respect copyright.PENANAlPxYgwunaN
stop staring at the box and I needed to end this paranoia once and for 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAbEqsNgoS1R
all. I quickly removed the lid without thinking that there might be 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAP2T64Zbgu9
something dangerous in the box. The others even covered their faces. But1060Please respect copyright.PENANAT2zcjtTMZl
nothing happened.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA7hWQeYX92G
"What the....?" I looked in the box and what I saw, shocked me completely.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAl23oV4lUk7
"What is it?" Christine asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAbISQthFeEL
I looked up at the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAcjEX27tdfT
others and they bended over to see what was in the box. Their jaws 1060Please respect copyright.PENANACstUPF7xaC
dropped almost at the same time and we looked at each other.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA2pK5QBH4l3
"This is just ridiculous," I said as I shook my head.1060Please respect copyright.PENANARPO0mfT5Ew
Christine, Mike and Daniel suddenly burst out laughing.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAulFJFhzPBA
Zoey and Lee came rushing into the lounge.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAo3PMrmxsxG
"Hey? What's going on?" Zoey asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANASpPEybw56U
No one answered. I was too speechless to say anything and the rest were still laughing.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOsf43s9ltZ
"What is in the package, Sam?" Lee asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAQCH92rtDE2
I soon removed a little cute brown teddy bear and held it up for Zoey and Lee to see.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOqOausBpsm
"Huh? You're laughing all because of a teddy bear?" Zoey looked at the others, wondering if they were okay in the head.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAfHs7qS6LNx
"Oh, my goodness, Zoey," said Christine trying to catch her breath with tears in her eyes. "Can't you see it?"1060Please respect copyright.PENANAxC9w4SUj86
"See what?" Zoey and Lee asked the same time.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAHeQQZsUY7d
"The...the...suit!" Mike laughed even more, pointing at the teddy bear.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAzM4Aey3bZz
It was then that Zoey 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAW5KjtW7RfB
looked at the bear in my hand and recognised that the tiny teddy bear 1060Please respect copyright.PENANALch1p1eIl0
wore a tiny black suit with a tiny black tie. Zoey looked like she was 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAj349iD9TkB
about to get sick. Looked like she already figured out it was the1060Please respect copyright.PENANAp7XSmNAxIT
stranger who she was with today that sent it.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAqsc6xRkrmB
"Guys, what am I missing here?" Lee asked.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAUY5CR2wVvZ
"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.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAzYeV9kuG40
The other three continued to laugh when they saw Zoey take the bear. Lee looked as confused as ever.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA120vbGCR3d
"And here I thought it was a bomb," said Daniel, wiping away the tears in his eyes.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAFbHr1RVp8i
"Ya. But it just turned out to be a bear in a suit," said Christine. "A harmless bear!"1060Please respect copyright.PENANANjXel9rD3W
This time, they laughed 1060Please respect copyright.PENANA8JfjVdiR9L
even louder and I couldn't help but start laughing too. A minute ago, we1060Please respect copyright.PENANAzIIekRM4S2
had feared for our lives and it was for no good reason. I saw the 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAHcLSMyPjsG
reason to laugh along as well. Who knows what the future might hold? You1060Please respect copyright.PENANAEJydHbdE4v
could die at any given day. We were just glad to be alive and laughing.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA7EzXjcORY3
"Stop it, guys," said Zoey with a frown. "This isn't funny." Lee just shook her head in disbelief.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAUXYQBZnGZc
"You brought this on yourself, not us," said Mike.1060Please respect copyright.PENANALjsydt2bRt
"What's with all the laughing?" Collins asked as he came into the lounge.1060Please respect copyright.PENANAacQ42lV5Gx
Zoey held up the bear 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAZEVQqFcES4
for Collins to see. It was such a funny site given that Zoey looked like1060Please respect copyright.PENANAY50B3iLE4o
she was about to cry and she held the bear's little arm in between her 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAOvLOMskkPo
fingers that it was dangling in midair. That sent us into another wave 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAo21NGNYYfx
of laughter. This time, Mike and Christine were on the floor and Daniel 1060Please respect copyright.PENANAXetJ0Hq0HH
fell right beside me on the couch. I laughed so hard my stomach ached.1060Please respect copyright.PENANA2BqBetEA30
And surprisingly, Collins laughed too.
