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

My watch said 10:31 and I hissed in frustration. I was getting really impatient and I felt like I was about to blow a fuse.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7pH8wHMOe

I had never been this 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUgGeknp0m
late in my entire life. Not even when I had my own personal 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqy96MwQhI
appointments. The others would be wondering why I was so late. And 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVenYMdmdW
trying to explain the reason why, would have them blown away.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOR1cgjPhwQ

"Sam, are you still there?" Zoey called out to me from our room.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoogBct9A5

I didn't want to answer. I was quite irritated. But if I didn't, she would start to freak out.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrPITQ57Fo

"Sam!"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dbBc2LSUb

I rolled my eyes. "I'm still here, Zoey," I answered.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0e5Qpwcy7t

Zoey came out of the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjJPTzsUMB
room and came to the lounge where I was seated waiting for her. I was on984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCGuOARBuM
the couch and I looked at her, then back at my watch.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiDj3WP6rp

"Did you find what you're looking for?" I asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXALhdRfGw

"No, I haven't," said Zoey.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlc4Fz2XKP

"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."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUbf9fffD1

"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.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxPfO07yJ9

"Zoey, it's just a stud and you have plenty of those like it in your jewellery box."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFgXCfPtHD

"But those are my favourite studs," said Zoey. "You know they are diamond, right?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJlZBuaC8P

"I know because I bought you those studs for your birthday a year ago."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZC9YIO47io

"Oh. Ya, I know." Zoey had a look on her face that told me she forgot about that.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGp9DqU0HS

I ignored her and said, 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtuY8gt39y
"just get another pair of studs or don't put on any at all. For my sake.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKFlElYkH0
And Collins' too. We were supposed to be at the studio at 10."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMjnA27TVA

"What time is it?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡto2TJkIYFb

"10:35."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVliLjkf82s

"Wow, time really passes by."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPkbPTzVtq

"When it comes to you, it does. Come on, let's go."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pbFup6tYF

"Let me go get my phone."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACnbx8ozdY

Zoey rushed back to the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARzHI4PfuG
room and I hoped she wasn't going to get back to looking for her missing984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnIC9WCpEc
stud. She sometimes did the opposite of what she had to do. But anyway,984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuPdbVbPCD
that was Zoey.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUCK1wuExi

I soon received a 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdNXLsBAMK
message from Collins threatening me to get to the studio as soon as 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroazLyyXKG
possible. In no less than five minutes. I moaned. He knew we couldn't 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvHY4oYvKh
get there in five minutes. That's if we were superheros.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxkk5WsDmK

"Zoey, come on, we better go!"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qpNgiXj53

"I'm coming."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdC8S36QHs0

I started heading 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenMvcK9V8u
towards the elevator and my phone beeped again. Another message. 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡro031Xex7x
Hopefully it wasn't Collins again telling us he would hang us to death 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JwezhymOH
if we didn't make it in time. But I was surprised to see an unknown 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpll4O3tSwF
number. A number coming from another country.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwJn756XLN

"Oh, who is this?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bt5WssZp9

Before I could open the message icon, Zoey came rushing from behind and bumped into my back. That almost made me drop my phone.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUyctJLBSs

"My goodness, Zoey!" I said as I looked at her. "You should look where you're going. I almost dropped my phone."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnv1EAe2eJh

"Sorry," said Zoey as she also looked at me.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1gw1A0scR

"Come on, we're already late."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfNum3ITxn

We went into the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFkDsn8UFO
elevator and I put my phone away in my jeans jacket pocket. A black 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CjcfcPP3V
Chevrolet SUV was waiting for us outside. The others had already left 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtt4lSC6KT
for the studio and I had stayed behind because of Zoey's missing stud.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFbgS0enqm

When we got to YG, 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVpo10KhiT
Collins stood there by the entrance, obviously waiting for us. He looked984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9Eq09Di9i
like an angry father ready to scold at his kids for coming home late.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsFqU4lV0m

"Don't tell me all this is your doing, Zoey," said Collins as we approached him.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcinzHZLFsB

"No, no, it's not," said Zoey as she shook her head.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCG5PzRIgw8

"Says the person who isn't wearing her studs today."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYP89FOPneI

Zoey held her earlobes 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGUIHfqzLl
and looked at me with a surprised look on her face. I shrugged. I had to984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0HR3hrOs2
tell Collins why we delayed over the phone. At least he believed me, 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DQ6C5bEKe
knowing that he already knew what was Zoey was like.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9B0qpp4W9q

"Come on, the others are waiting and they didn't want to start without you," said Collins.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVdcXLUeHU

"They had to wait," said Zoey, flipping her hair. "I'm singing the first verse alongside G-Dragon."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRPEiBkADC

"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.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1D9lam7fC

"I'll try." I smiled. Zoey stuck out her tongue at Collins.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3p77BrB6k

We got to the studio and we found everyone else waiting for us, lazing around on the couch.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSY3jXQWQwU

"Hey, you're finally here," said Seungri.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn05AHRvp1c

"Sorry, we had an issue back at the hotel," said Zoey.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVx2GfKw16d

"Ya. A 'serious' one." I said as I rolled my eyes.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYKeGkowWI

"I can't wait to get started," said Daniel excitedly as he stood up from the couch.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvq5NeaLjht

"Then let's do so," said984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6qkHeb0OX
Collins as he joined the music producer by the console. "Zoey, Taeyang,984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVfeDOZgJ4
Christine, Sam and G-Dragon, we will start with you guys."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyxHRimMQe

I had completely forgot 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrgA8AghWO
that G-Dragon was even in the room. I hadn't noticed him at all when he 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqGRKClQBW
stood up from the couch and came towards Zoey and I.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaDagFsaX4

"Hi, Zoey," G-Dragon greeted Zoey.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5qRyXRXJR

"Hi," said Zoey with a wide smile on her face.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8gtO4lXa2

"Ahem," Christine came from behind as she cleared her throat. "Let's go. You two can talk later."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbHAUiu7EI

I rolled my eyes and together with Taeyang and Christine, we went into the live room together, followed by the two love birds.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrg1vxQBRhg

In the live room, there 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfGDyVP4Ke
stood five microphones and with each mic had a pair of headphones around984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrQANx6Nbg
it. We each stood in front of a microphone and put on the headphones.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpxbEe1GKO

Ahead of us was a window where we could see the others from the other side.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXuCFmWquE

"Are you guys ready?" Collins asked as his voice was heard through the speaker in the live room.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cYdcDc7hw

I looked at the others 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTDhouglya
to see if they were settled and gave Collins a thumbs up and the music 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlAtQku0uo
producer started to play the tune for the song.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNq7WMLWHHc

G-Dragon started to sing984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NrkRRJePC
and then afterwards, Zoey followed. Their voices blended so well with 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbtMNUDNnC
the music, they made a perfect harmony. Looked like I did a good thing 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjSsI2FUnN
to let them sing the first verse together.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2egvtiSTF

Collins, the music 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRze04U1aF
producer and the others outside the live room had smiles on their faces.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDQcUHSgRW
They were loving it alright. Collins gave them a thumbs up.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7KyWh9WKk

Christine then sang the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9unIESDqY
bridge and as she came came closer to the chorus, I joined in. Then 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjANErKlJ4A
Taeyang and I sang the chorus together.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyafbwKWVi9

When we were done, the music producer stopped playing the track.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8udjX0iQlk

"That was awesome, guys," said Collins as his voice came out through the speaker. "The song is so incredible."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpr4QBvOUWY

"Ya, thank Sam," said Taeyang. "She is the one who came out with all of this."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhjUsNlPpv

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."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAH1uVZkbw

"Okay, Sam and Taeyang, I984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmE19rGbT7
want you two to go through the chorus again, this time with a little 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzH9gLxrXbc
more high tempo and see how it sounds," said the music producer.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQG9B0lpB4

"Okay," Taeyang and I said at the same time.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsffYoezSG

"Shall GD and I leave then?" Zoey asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRoess7UW7

"You may," said Collins,984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUyFygsT5U
looking a little irritated on his face. "But don't leave the studio. 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKU08OfEGSg
You have to work on the backup vocals."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXWnv1s3KT

"Alright, we will be here," said Zoey, with a grin on her face.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOhjb9mlsx

If I hadn't known 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3Nkiw1zZB
better, something told me Zoey and G-Dragon were up to something. They 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRzvonDzok
looked like little mischievous children as they smiled at each other and984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9G8K4KlE2O
they walked out of the live room. I couldn't help but feel a little 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzYZOvyYxf
hollow inside.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjK0KFwrkq

"So, we will start from Christine's part," said the music producer.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDdHNK54HQ

We continued recording 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TbGgUYrdc
the song and later on, TOP, Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel also came 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUYv9WSblC
into the live room. It took us a while to record the whole song, trying 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqCq9EBWGv
to make our vocals blend in with the song but we were done.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BlXGQ8482

"Great job guys," said Collins. "Let's break up for lunch and then we can come back and work on the backup vocals."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj37g1nWsiR

"Alright," said Mike as he took out his headphones. "I'm pretty hungry now."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqmYSMTeA4

"The song is amazing," said Christine. "And it's catchy that you can sing it the whole day."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmiLC2fSNC

"Ya," said TOP. "Why don't we all go somewhere special for lunch?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Byc1OtKFy

"Like where?" I asked as I put the headphones on the mic.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkaoXnlOAGs

"Some restaurant I think we will like," said TOP as he looked at me with a killer smile.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XF8fu1u79

"That sounds great." I turned to the window to look at Collins who obviously heard everything. "Can we go, Collins?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNp5ecP4gA

"Ya, you can go," said Collins waving his hand irritatingly in the air.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYxSRnVlle

"Yes!" Daniel punched the air with his fist.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGQ9RgTEO1

"But be back within an hour."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmCieoCtL8

I raised an eyebrow at Collins who then rolled his eyes at me and groaned.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDmEgdidVr

"Fine, an hour and a half."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfZfH6xWVr

I did a little victory dance in my heart and I smiled in triumph. Collins and the music producer soon left the studio room.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysvJRBEJ4e

"How did you do that?" Daesung asked as we all walked out of the live room.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQkxxtQb0J

"Do what?" I asked with a smile on my face as Daesung was right behind me.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wAqAJXqO0

"How did you convince Collins to give us an hour and thirty minutes?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp48yeXE5QN

"That, my friend," said 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOqlNUtdGL
Mike behind me, "is the way my sister does her thing. Just by a look in 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5x5GYYKtbw
her eyes and you will have to do whatever she wants."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYJ6jctro2

"That's not true," I said as I turned around to look at Mike who had his hand on Daesung's shoulder.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9TQUoUN1w

"Really? I beg to differ," said TOP as he winked at me.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1llewCZo5k

"No one does what I want them to do just by looking at them in the eye," I said, looking away from TOP, blushing.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVH4ojGj1c

"Well, it does work, most of the time," said Christine nodding her head.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfk3ypgK8TP

"Oh, ya? Like when?" I folded my arms.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwnfpYvShT

"Whenever you want us to984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Pzol429DN
tell you the truth about something and we refuse, you always give us 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tR6M38YwJ
this eye that makes us give in," said Daniel.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxNEQNPCB8

"For real?" I raised an eyebrow.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMqV0jNLQR

"Ya, your eyes burn and we just can't take it," said Christine.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KSB6pSwBd

"Huh," I thought of all 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrd7EXBigF
the times when either of my brothers or the girls ever did whatever I 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsORI3zYvs
wanted them to do just by me giving them the eye.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubCJXalRD8

"But that doesn't explain with Collins though," said Taeyang.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbQkg1fcpk

"Thank you, Tae," I said feeling relieved.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKyv4JgoWG

"Come on, Sam," said 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIRFIWHvhP
Daniel. "You might not know it, but Collins listens to you because you 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGrxAVKbxO
also give him the eye. And also probably because you're his favourite."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5ETtVO9RV

"That makes no sense." I shook my head.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPFs74aqkK

"I believe him," said Seungri. "Looks like you have a way of getting to Collins to make him agree with you."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoyNRMvgjG

"But he doesn't agree to me all the time," I slowly shook my head.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6bUUMsv4q

"On some ocassions like this one, he does," said Christine with a smile.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHi5WHGzQr0

"Can we please just go for lunch?" I asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpjnxcUWGt

Seungri came over to open the door for me, but just as I was about to step out of the room, I stopped.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2XiVinHVe

"Guys?" I turned around to look at the others. "Where are Zoey and GD?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzAqFS7D1h

We all turned towards the couch and noticed that there was no one there. I went back in the room and looked around.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2GwauadKs

"They aren't here," I said.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cTFbAGqUf

"These guys don't stop surprising us with their disappearing acts," said Daesung.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzapnmz5D4E

"I'm surprised Collins didn't notice," said Seungri.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OXO3YEner

"Hopefully, they will be back before we start on the backup vocals," I said.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwpSTxAeSt

"Then let's go then," said TOP. "Wherever those two are, they are fine."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RN1RHYjYZ

I nodded my head and we 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dDUMAFPn2
all left the room. As we headed down to the ground floor, I reminded 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EhfcCs3IL
myself to leave a text message for Zoey.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqcwo6o0Nd

We were in the lobby and984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRINTxuWY1E
I stopped to remove my phone. I went over to messages and realised that984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSmWZhdlEH
I had one unread message. It was the message I had received this 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzNrWPPddQ
morning.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4J36wBvN5

I first sent Zoey a text984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZRrzov5IK
message then I decided to read the unknown message from this unknown 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0tnsMv9za
person. Then TOP appeared right in front of me.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDHDLJ8CYR

"Hey, what are you looking at?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BV4e8Imu9

I was startled by his sudden appearance that my thumb pressed the exit button and I had gone out of my messages.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX69L1GZtdk

"I was just sending Zoey a message," I said.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4U2O13hKB2

"Okay, shall we go?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCh2nACZzLd

"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.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDb2yBMw7F

"Oh, you guys look like you're going out," said Christine with a smile.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3xY8h3UYW

"We're all going out for lunch aren't we?" I asked with a smirk.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPPe6SIyZt

"Ya, we are," said Daesung, looking the other way and scratching the back of his head.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7BahqJGRk

"We better go or else our one and half hours will elapse in no time," said Daniel.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3ey8mrgdl

Instead of using any one984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7ldN9bgsP
of the BigBang members personal cars, we used the two black SUVs. We 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktgFhvAs6I
were driven to a fancy restaurant and as usual, we grabbed a lot of 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEf1dxeesW
attention, especially from the customers.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphW2Cy5jsA

I had to admit, the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakssu8lyvQ
restaurant was nice and classy, suitable for the famous and the rich. As984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Ry1KwH7Gh
I walked into the restaurant with the others, a fancy glass chandelier 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDwIPDcr9w
caught my eye. The polished wooden floor shone almost like glass under 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVplhunGlFb
the lights the chandelier reflected all over the room.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IAnofijDC

A smartly dressed 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZ3wGLfkjb
waiter, who by the way, was super cute, came over. He gave us a friendly984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIykZBnizYp
smile and I felt Christine nudge me by the shoulder and when I turned 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡin833HTSdP
to her, she was smiling. Looked like she also noticed the waiter's good 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bfltYWwif
looks too. Damn! Why were Korean men so good looking?984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwDADhLRru

We were escorted to a 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQrUrRzPLt
round table big enough to cater a whole lot of people. Even ten. But 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZxkN2WH0S
sadly, Zoey and G-Dragon weren't here.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOim680wMw

TOP pulled a chair for 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqxm1aLttE
me and I sat down, thanking him as he took his seat beside me. Seungri 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPf7t4KJJ6
pulled a chair for Christine who sat on my other side and Seungri sat 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrLG3CbsMs
beside her.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qnDOdUYhj

"This place is so lovely," I said as I looked around.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GqVWws0fz

"Tell me about it," said Christine.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQr1xAmj5d

"I knew you would like it," said TOP.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqFsXDSAYv

"Ya, it's exquisite, but I'm only here for the food," said Mike who sat opposite me.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpHLeSZwzH

"So, let's order," said Daesung.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHAskpT2YK

I took the fancy looking menu with the colour of velvet and the letters written in gold. Classy.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25cZm8oW9H

After our delicious meals had been served, we ate. I enjoyed it as I savoured every little food in my mouth.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiG6KoQ8ah2

As we were having our 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IVbWk6csn
dessert, we were chatting and there was a lot of laughter all around our984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcipAIKQiy4
table. It was fun to be like this, all together as good friends and 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEUqUbgd4K
laughing about. I kind of wished Zoey and GD were here. I bet they were 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi00rCjCeU5
having fun wherever they were.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3izWvrGn5C

While I was having my 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsV7Jkk7mOB
strawberry cake, I felt the vibration of my phone in my pocket. Must be a984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOtsKg2BOS
message. I took out my phone and I was shocked to see that the same 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsh5Tpi83u
unknown number had sent me a message again.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqH1E4mAxUE

I tapped on the message 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJO9Yt6sINx
icon and the first message the unknown number had sent to me was a 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRGX02srhG
photo. I had to download it first before I could even see it. And then 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwzToJS7Y0
the next message was more surprising.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0f45ZiRwrU

"Aren't you going to do anything about this?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDmxCim2xE

Anything about what was 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNsXRoKoCw
the question. Had this had to do with the photo? Must be or else the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7YmPuZcsE
unknown person wouldn't have texted me this message.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmkQsNQwlg

I decided to turn my data on and download the photo. Just as I was about to, my phone went off.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzF26MBlCMp

"Dang it!" I muttered to myself.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhrtvv2F6I

"Hey, what's wrong?" TOP asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4txVoZmvg

"Nothing, my phone went dead. I hadn't charged it last night."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHw52TPFVDi

"Was there something important you wanted to do?" Taeyang asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqaFFJUTpa

"Not really, it's not important." I shook my head but my thoughts still lingered on the unknown photo.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB189u4PMnQ

"Did Zoey text you back?" Christine asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkf5J9ppUx

"No, why?" I asked as I picked up a piece of strawberry cake with my fork.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rwj8Nt6Oe

"Well, your phone vibrated so I thought you had received a message from her."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz36nPAFnq2

"It was nothing. Wherever Zoey is, she is having a lot of fun."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSNPFuAFNL

"Hey, what's up with GD and Zoey anyway?" Taeyang asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYN2ENppoHy

"Isn't it freaking obvious?" said Daesung. "Those two seem like a couple now."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRQjWzm4lf

I almost choked on my cake but instead, I cleared my throat. Christine rolled her eyes.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZT95kF9dD

"Well, that wasn't going to go on unnoticed forever," she said.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0KXgMvrzo

"Wait, for real?" Taeyang asked, with a look of surprise.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1PHLNTBk6

"And you already knew, didn't you?" Mike asked looking at Christine.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2djl3RDzXi

"Oh, please," said Christine rolling her eyes. "Don't tell me you haven't noticed how close those two are nowadays."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ClzDqvmf4

"They have always been close," said Seungri. "But this time, they are just way too close."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdW4TGZadRw

"For them to disappear like that together, it counts for something, right?" TOP suggested.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVShyvOUSD

"Can we please stop 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvNNx8hqsy
talking about it?" I asked. "There are people around and if they hear 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgijHiZl3S
all this, some of us would be hanged when this spreads like wild fire."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VU2rLKhbl

"Why do you say that?" Daesung asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIibVsbU7DJ

"Oh, oooh, oh," said Daniel waving his hand from across the table. "May I say it?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29nAQQUGml

"No, let me," said 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nuUYG5hJG
Christine, as she put her hand on mine and looking at me convincingly to984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1KY0RriwE
allow her to say what she wanted to say.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRiHsfbwoQ

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.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRX274zSdd

"Because, Collins gave 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTFDHBtjNl
these girls a golden rule when we were coming here," said Daniel. "And 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqV3YR5XVtP
that is, none of them should date any one of you BigBang members. 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjB3r4358pc
Never."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMWVtyHtjO

There was silence on the984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZBYRnSFSl
table and I couldn't help but feel a little downcast. Christine 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZLstsUJYt
continued to eat her dessert like nothing serious had been said. I 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzlMi7PJKI
looked over at my brothers who seem to be enjoying our humiliation.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55PbIAHCSi

"Is that true?" Seungri asked, looking over at me.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioobhkVlCH

"Ya, it's true," I said as I slowly chewed the cake in my mouth.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTvEpE0uRT

"Oh." Daesung looked a little disappointed as he stared down at his plate.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKK7OP7mfg

"Who cares? It's not like it's that serious," said TOP as he shrugged.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw39BN3HXHM

"It's serious to 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyC85jQqK6
Collins," I said as I turned to look at TOP. "We're only here to 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSL68NHvTZ
collaborate with you and that's all. Not date, get married and have 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eXQXxgZrh
babies."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUuWONq3Mw

That was odd coming out 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJRZXsk2xX
of my own mouth and the others knew it too. Everyone's eyes were on me, 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡky94tmxrwP
with looks on their faces that I couldn't describe. This was 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtyCP6epjR
embarrassing. My hands were now curled into fists as they rested on my 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnqCH1yjdW
laps.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6f7VNW7PiS

"Sorry, that came out wrong," I said.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4l7hJ8jCuS

"Well, you did catch us by surprise by saying that," said Taeyang.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAchfJFc5E

I really did. Something 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDqDJ6gpaX
had gone totally wrong with me and I could feel it. My thoughts were 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRxIL1x0EP
spinning in my head and I felt like I had no control over how I felt.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFHcDpIFlo

"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.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUe9dcOwxfS

I quickly closed the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qzLp99Rcl
door immediately I stepped in the ladies' room, leaning my back against 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBv0ViHC0hQ
the door. My hands flew to my hair and I took a deep breath. I walked 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzpmwMq5FU
over to the sink and stared at myself in the mirror.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojb4Udu0Z6

"What's wrong with you today?" I asked my reflection.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLd70oZZbsk

I shook my head and I 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmJJGC631i
knew I wasn't alright. Something was definitely wrong. Was it the fact 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHD9STavg3w
that Zoey and G-Dragon were together? As far as I know, I wasn't really 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMinPB9Qky
supposed to care. But I did.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGVRHZ8fXo

I looked at myself and I984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsItkoMYMlx
could see the sadness in my eyes. Were they for G-Dragon? I shook my 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDXOsTk3A1
head at the thought. No. They weren't. He and I were still at war with 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwYYGsI7Iq
each other and that made no sense. I had to stop thinking about these 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVU0SqC7Yfc
things and focus on what's really important.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtXCTnWHHx

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.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuR3Ihgh1ot

"Are you okay, Sam?" Mike asked as I sat back down.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIY89tTsM6X

"Ya, I am. I just feel horrible that I said that."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24AEEhlP34

"We think we know why you did," said Christine.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0XM4IurNu

I gulped. What had these984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVCiur55sC
guys thought of now? If it was what I thought it was, I would rather 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxETp8ziZ90
not hear it. There was a moment of silence at the table.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aemiUu8xp

"Zoey has you so worked up that you're irritated," said TOP.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvzwZLiHi2

That was not what I was expecting. I was wide eyed and in my heart, feeling a little relieved.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6Dstqdlzd

"Ya, I remember when we were coming here in the plane and Collins told you to watch over Christine and Zoey," said Mike.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVtZLs5x9Y

"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.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKTJJn4zj1

While Christine was one 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6aBwFu0OL
who at least had her hormones in check, Zoey and I were pretty much 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyMT9ZQSwh
guilty. I couldn't tell who was worse between either of us. I bet I was 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06DEMJ1QeI
worse.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5R32C2mPe

"Well, I guess I'm also guilty myself like Zoey," I said, admitting to everyone.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeP8bHEFLy

"If you mean TOP flirting around with you, then trust me, you're not," said Daniel.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0MMPUCVPd

"Hey!" TOP looked a little annoyed but rather amused. He ended up laughing.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIyoWmQy6I

"And me calling you my panda," said Seungri, with a smirk.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFFaLHsgmf

"You see, Sam, people just like you," said Mike. "And these guys shouldn't dare make a move of kissing you."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGPf3DQcDm

I blushed. "Mike!"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsN6T4Dobtq

"Don't worry, he is just being protective over his sister," said Daesung, laughing.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIEiIuxbi9

"I've tried kissing 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiQ6RUIl0s
her," TOP challenged as he looked over at my brothers. He raised an 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEcDjv4zwv
eyebrow. "What are you going to do about that?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNehbfyhlRQ

"Uhh, if I were you, I 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbNcVeCLqZ
wouldn't challenge them, TOP," I said as put my hand on his shoulder, 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4to9CjtJn7
looking over at my brothers who looked set on tearing TOP apart. And I 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0qVSipdAZ
caught a glimpse of Daesung rolling his eyes at TOP. "You would end up 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbvYE2AH1b
regretting it."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKFel0sUNQ

"True," said Christine, nodding her head at TOP. "These boys are like monsters you can't beat. Only Sam can handle them."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9nBltGX7K

I looked over at Christine with a look that said 'that's not true.' Christine shrugged.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyERfn0r4nl

"Fine, I'll listen to 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0ymymWNoQ
you ladies," said TOP as he looked at Christine and I. "Most especially 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEDP3ZT0P3
because Sam says so." He gave me that killer bad boy smile of his and I 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWjcjstrum
blushed.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0r5WeyzaV

"Well, we better go," said Taeyang.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyb5AJqRo0

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.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSG58QAHdBH

After TOP paid the bill, we left the restaurant with the paparazzi taking pictures as we walked out.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDOf3q6HvL

We got to YG just in 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mCKhVkDTN
time. I just hoped that Zoey and G-Dragon were back here. I didn't want 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFRSkFjWPD
Collins on my throat and giving him the eye, wasn't going to help.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7mUXDFVGU

When we got to the studio, we found G-Dragon.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvISOfQQU6

"Hey, where did you two disappear to?" Christine asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1bgLGyfTr

"We just went out," said G-Dragon as he looked around the room.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHUEsezavH

I couldn't help but feel984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoIN0XK15Z
that something was wrong, just by the look on his face. "What's wrong?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMz1HLeMuF6
I asked him with my eyebrow raised.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YOQZpbTcW

"Huh?" He appeared to be absent minded. Was he looking for something?984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRuqg9sT3c

"I was asking what's wrong with you? And where is Zoey?" I asked as I also looked around.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnub3B3iTIv

"That's the thing," said G-Dragon. "I can't find her."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETA6jfu3vd

I felt something inside 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlW1h6G1gIi
me break and my eyes bulged out of their sockets ready to fall out. I 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKS5cU1Zlz
couldn't believe what I was hearing.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0sL8Y4CBU

"Are you for real?" Taeyang asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uxQfTHHZB

"I'm serious," said G-Dragon.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSxHxN5bcK

"Wait, do you mean you 'lost' her?" Mike asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuV7vjxvMq2

"I didn't lose her, I just can't find her."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhtyGhAjAW

"That sounds more like losing her to me," said Daniel.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjHApr2BV6

"You guys aren't helping!" G-Dragon exclaimed throwing his hands in the air in frustration.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymxQjf11WQ

"Where were you guys first of all?" Seungri asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYv1ocVJKl

"We first went to have lunch then the two of us went to the park."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwLka9XC5y

"Then?" TOP asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoZB9iEpGa

"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."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOezeWjol0T

"Are you sure?" Daesung asked. "Did you look everywhere for her?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qVFveonit

"I did. I even asked people around and they hadn't seen her. I thought she would be back here."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsE3DtaAk9b

"That would be unusual, given that Zoey doesn't really know the city so well," said Taeyang.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasH5CYR1H1

"But where could she be?" Christine asked looking as worried as I was.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ocdITrRNu

"Try calling her," said Seungri, turning to Christine.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWrK29sPWi

"I just hope she is okay," I said as I rubbed my neck.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8pJKXatvV

"What are we going to do with Collins?" Mike asked looking at me.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmY2qAdjwwq

"I don't know," I said. "Hey, do me a favour and try to call the hotel and see if Zoey is there."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdwBN0Hd1y

"Sure thing," said Mike as he pulled out his phone.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoHh55J2pH

"Her phone is off," said Christine her phone in her hand.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtn3BcNcqcT

"Oh, no, this isn't good," said TOP.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQpx9cOVGB

"Again, Zoey is putting us into more problems."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnFvujz04W

I couldn't help but 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMepL9w8YhQ
wonder why she went off like that. Something wasn't right. Was G-Dragon 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxnD4BMx7e
not telling us what was really going on?984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveqQuxSlFe

"No one has seen Zoey go into the hotel," Mike announced.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHXgo3Y1Uw

"We're goners," said Seungri as he dropped himself on the couch.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9h6AOWcxn0

"We've to look for her," said TOP.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9oZWiDAFB

"But where can we start looking?" Daniel asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfkzLEQr1C

"I don't know, but we have to go and find her," I said.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWCHLFeQWV

"And we have to do something with Collins," said Taeyang.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQyLLT5sbQ

"Did someone say my name?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfCcmLb0LN

I cringed. He was one 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Fulw915hR
person I wasn't ready to face right now. Everyone else wasn't ready to 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ESPdzqsgk
either. We slowly turned to look behind us and Collins stood there with 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPIm6Jodz4
the music producer.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfb6GFGTrFl

"Why are you all looking worried like someone has gone missing?" Collins asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPlS4JwW4P

I sighed. If only he knew. But if he does find out, he wasn't going to forgive us that easily.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dD2Mpk2Rb

Collins looked on at us, waiting to answer him. What to do now! We were going to be in such big trouble.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsWHz9hvlt

"Looks like you aren't 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JsHyE7Hr5
going to answer me, so let's get back to work," said Collins turning 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasFPu5Pt1n
away from us and heading towards the console.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJStzehxE9B

"We will work on the backup vocals," said Collins. "Zoey, Sam and Christine, you're up."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoykZD0yrh

I looked at the others 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VgAFTesQf
who hadn't said a word. We all looked at each other. Someone had to do 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptn0DlREIq
something or else we would be toast.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hixUJ5Igx

"Are we going to start?" Collins asked looking behind him as he turned on his chair. "Where is Zoey?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHSV4Nrh4J

It was about time he noticed. It looks like we ourselves weren't ready to tell him that Zoey is missing.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XPuAlvw6Y

"What's wrong with you, guys? Why aren't you saying anything?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaX8tIf3wZU

"Zoey isn't here," said Mike.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsmVJ8USAF

"Ya, I can see that. Where is she?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaJidqbZgR

"She wasn't feeling too well," I said. "So she went back to the hotel."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHDggDiCVS

"What? Did she eat something bad for lunch?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkZMZ5Ab02

"Ya. She did," said G-Dragon.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHI3SP6017s

"So, do you think we should continue or do this tomorrow when Zoey is around?" I asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXTOanYhuK

"We should just do this tomorrow," the music producer suggested, turning to Collins.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUZwx1KAdM

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.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjZp7fgiii

"Fine," said Collins. "We really need Zoey, so we should just do it tomorrow."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FgEy3CQ0F

Mike and Daniel almost 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBinxAKIBwv
jumped with relief but they managed to control themselves. Christine 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWciE71c5M
turned around so that Collins and the music producer wouldn't notice her984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspcvCFo8sI
sighing in relief. The rest of us just stood there, pocker faced.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbd77t9J2a

"That's fine," said Taeyang.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbN6aEQROU

"I really wanted us to be done with this today," said Collins.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOmW0LTmcs

"Looks like it wasn't meant to be," said TOP.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZgf4nTAfi

Ya. It wasn't meant to be. Looks like we were lucky. That meant we could look around for Zoey.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ysSCFkoun

"You guys can go back to the hotel and make sure Zoey is okay," said Collins.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVClN4Sdgfn

"I'll go," said Christine. "The others can stay here if they want to."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFs3t5i2Rtx

Christine was doing the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxUq7CzDvQ
right thing. If she went to the hotel, Collins wouldn't be so suspicious984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2DIraUbUa
of what's going on and just in case he decides to go back there at 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4E5mU7Qwzz
anytime, Christine might cover up for Zoey.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqN8zcHenE

"Okay and what will the rest of you all be doing?" Collins asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSx1wi9Cj21

"Chilling," G-Dragon and I replied at the same time. We both looked at each other afterwards.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdmAUQq7y3

"Fine, I have some other things to attend to. I might just go and check up on Lee and Yang Hyun-suk."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxMPx4qjYi

I wanted to ask where, 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBinHaKmFuw
but I knew it was none of my business. I realised that I hadn't seen Lee984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp68HDnxOwp
the whole day. Must be she was busy with Yang Hyun-suk. Collins and the984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AlPTmCz2S
music producer soon left.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8u3XQ9LhE

I walked over to the door and checked if Collins and the music producer were in the hall. But they were gone.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNB1F1Nqgd3

"Looks like we have to split up and look for Zoey," said Taeyang.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2B7CuFP6l

"Ya, we should," I 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvg4TYN8Ao
nodded my head. "G-Dragon and I will take Christine to the hotel just in984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8KIRBGuAq
case Zoey shows up and if Collins decides to go there."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTJWXAce0W

"I'll go with Taeyang," said Daniel.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqYlR1b8fD

"And I go with Seungri," said Mike.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEr9QvJ57KK

"That leaves Daesung and I," said TOP.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ100ClkDjNl

"Great, let's go," I said and we all walked out of the room.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OE2Jz7BJK

As soon as we left the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8Xf1RxEIx
YG building, we split up in the parking lot. Luckily, Collins had 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZp2XDpaB3
already left. Christine and I went with G-Dragon in his car. It was 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUfogTkGYI
important that I had to talk to G-Dragon concerning Zoey.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnsQ9O0wXF

We soon arrived at the hotel and Christine got out of the car. I gave her my phone for it to be charged.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxapjGjh5WW

"Call us if anything good happens," I said I looked at Christine through the window.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7t996q58P

"And what if something bad happens?" Christine asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLv4f8AZOL

"Like Collins? You can handle it," I said as I gave her a smile. Christine winked and wished us luck.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwCdXBQ4CU

G-Dragon drove away and 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2cZFQn494
we first went to the park where he came with Zoey after lunch. I just 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3unCUXZLY
hope she didn't go that far and that she was okay.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gcKhOLPYB

"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.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SKAY7nbJq

"What?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcv6UM7nLK

"Did you two argue?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXp1J0p5Bka

"No, we didn't," said G-Dragon as he went around me and started walking towards the park.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYhbUGAwRo

I quickly turned and followed him. When I caught up with him, I stood in front of him to stop him.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRPB6xASlY

"Are you telling me the truth?" I asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyK6CesJshU

"Do you think I am lying?" G-Dragon asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kIOq5VhMu

"I think so." I said with my arms folded.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUA2OFz4Euj

"You're crazy," said G-Dragon as he walked around me again.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsRfst1uo9

I huffed. He wasn't going to budge. I had to try something to get the truth out of him.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡio29jUtSxW

With quick strides, I 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSkZLWfQ5I
caught up with him again. This time I started to walk backwards so that I984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFYc85Y6rc
could look at him directly in his face.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPnRbK0bwY

"What are you doing?" G-Dragon asked as he looked at me, puzzled.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8v3o4mIyxJ

"I want you to tell me the truth."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDk1vRoct2Y

"You're stressing yourself out by walking backwards."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8aP7HImxAl

"Do I care?" I raised an eyebrow at him. "I know you're hiding something from me."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdl90RQXEuM

G-Dragon chuckled and 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmX2B7D4qJ
that almost made me smile. "Stop playing detective, my little kitty. As 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGauq6gmlQ
much as it suits you, you're going to trip over and fall."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxs4oGftYkA

"Then you have to stop me from walking backwards by answering my question."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGqcyqTPju

"This is one silly method of interrogation if you ask me."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPofC97Pxv

"I can tell you're not telling me something. Zoey can't just leave like that without someone upsetting her."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BrvTUmNHc

"And how do you know?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvegl8lKfN

"I'm her best friend. 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9ai1t7cD2
And plus, whenever someone gets her really upset, she runs off without 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1H0KL4is13
telling anyone. She always wants be alone to think."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLlhLoqdwO

"I hope she doesn't think of committing suicide."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkLD1o15xA

"Zoey can't end her 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ228CfJdk5c
life. Well, she hasn't tried to anyway. She's leaving the dream right 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeSSwGUcfA
now and ending her life this early, isn't going to sound right. Unless 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHz27zS3g1O
you did something."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGJyh7PX0r

"Me?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0452AbEC2v

"Da! Yes, you!"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9mo7MqR45

"What could I possibly have done for Zoey to try and commit suicide?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQRNlsgY7z

"Don't talk about suicide like that." I hit him on the arm.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNy23ihqph

"Ouch!" G-Dragon stopped and held his arm. "That hurts!"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72dO3UiCqx

"Well, you deserve it. Now tell me the truth." I put my hands on my hips.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfq7fryAZyE

"I'm telling you, Zoey and I didn't argue."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhffgna5XH

G-Dragon looked me in the eye and he seemed really convincing.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4CVel2DYk

"Okay. I believe you," I said. "But you must have said something that upset her."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKTX15ldjx

"I can't really remember what I had said to her. Maybe she just left on her own."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5Dp7PRfcF

"And with her phone off, that's a bit strange, don't you think?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoeGVkmJzV

"When we find her we will ask why she ran off."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJhtdDNru3

"Ya. Sure."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokpOzeCtoP

"Now, will you please 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXBUXvR3jo
stop walking backwards? I don't want you to trip and save you from 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGH7kfUBk0r
falling. That will spark rumours again like it did during the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8R35SL2gnF
interview."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSMNw8yRNO

I didn't say anything, 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJBiXRXpkN
so I just nodded my head and faced forward. We went further into the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRw4HWzvPK
park and as we looked around for Zoey, we sparked some attention from 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWt1IoHvWlO
our darling fans. We signed a few autographs and took a few pictures and984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lSooiO3UQ
went on with our search. We even asked some fans if they had seen Zoey,984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEyY7YMi3B
but nothing.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZY8iLXat2

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.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHxeTI1Rbw

"Are you tired already?" G-Dragon asked as he looked down on me.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YJUjSoW1z

"I'm not," I said as I 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLC8TbCJL8
removed my slippers and felt comfortable with my bare feet on the grass.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mRCPqBmkw
"I'm trying to figure out where Zoey could be."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6Z0IWkfXg

G-Dragon sat down beside984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbmiVJQ9co
me and the two of us were silent, looking at the pond. Laughter filled 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7ADJoEFHf
my ears as I saw a group of kids playing from across the pond. Some 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFrIIDmRvT
couples also sat on the grass close to the pond. It was such a beautiful984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwClanCJyW
day and sitting by the pond felt so relieving.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRtgl5Cvvk

"Have you figured something yet?" G-Dragon asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqw7gytr47

I frowned and looked at him. "No, why do you ask?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVFfMPsqEP

"You seem to be smiling to yourself," said G-Dragon as he looked at me.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60jibRdST9

"No, I'm actually enjoying what I'm experiencing right now."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYDo7pmqXY

"You love nature, don't you?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspVKRQJIzo

I closed my eyes, still smiling. "Ya. I really do."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPIMOFRQt4

At that moment, I was so984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNitI1AoWe
caught in the little world inside my head. For a moment, I forgot about984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlsfwFN74A
everything. About looking for Zoey, being famous, and the whole world 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIGK2grN0H
with everyone and everything in it. It's like they never existed because984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99fWWHa7Ec
even the noise around me seemed non existent.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLjIO2G7WB

Then I felt something 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Tb7Xin6aY
brush against my hand like a soft feather. The touch brought me back to 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoBf8MktBs
reality and I quickly opened my eyes. I looked beside me and G-Dragon 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAn8R10qcy
was staring at me.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlVvmJaVfh

"What?" I asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmyqngyd5q

"Has anyone ever told you how beautiful you are?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcu4Sev1pf

I blushed all of the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr11uuVlMFt
sudden and I looked down. His hand covered mine and for a moment I 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFxtfiGACB
wanted to pull away. But then again, I couldn't explain how I felt with 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09be4lP1tE
his hand on mine. I felt this weird comfort.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZxPCDL80h

I would have said yes to984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJgwMQ8LzQ
his question, but no words came out. This wasn't right. As much as I 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0P1jhZWchB
wanted him close to me, I knew I would end up getting hurt because we 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ub79t6FMI
were never meant to be.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXGpuxd61s

"Umm," I pulled my hand away and put it closer to my body. "Please don't say that GD."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKIeHvvYKb

"Why?" He asked softly.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboPcEOCEJ6

"Because this isn't right at all and you know it."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWF0T2oqlqo

"What do you mean?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jV7R5guPY

"You know that I ready know about Zoey and you. You guys are more like a couple."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAuRvsVkvX

"So?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6RKFPZ5xk

"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."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fVgAE2BCB

"Looks like you figured out that I don't really like Zoey as such as I like you."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMomxJ8cI9

I didn't say anything as I continued to figure out what to say next.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudbFLHDXR1

"Then why are you leading Zoey on? She doesn't deserve this, you know?" I asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8CbWkOrq5

"I know."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVvVygTJMc

"Then why are you doing this?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKsuMB2uYA

G-Dragon looked at me like he never had before. He soon looked away and sighed.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDaDwkGVt0

"I'm doing this because of you, Sam. But even if I do so, I still can't get you out of my head."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbbrDCFoO8

I also looked the other way, trying to act like those words hadn't affected me. But they did and they did so badly.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQTLDHWgZX

"You should find another984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7y6pSmVpPt
way to do so, GD." I turned to look back at him and he faced me. "But 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbG5CCrCN3y
not with Zoey. I don't want her getting hurt because of the both of us. I984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEw82GUSoO
will never forgive myself."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ547tIVBKW

G-Dragon nodded his head. "I'll do so."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80LEneUrnH

I wanted to smile but I 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uK2ipEbeS
couldn't bring myself to do it. I hoped he kept his word and maybe with 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOeVSLIrUV
this little talk we've had, we would be friends again and stop acting 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWUr8HiBRq
like we had beef with each other.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiTCQ3nUgY

Just as I was about to 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJI11HEzcz2
ask him why he had been giving me the attitude lately and if it had 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡST3AmqyJo8
anything to do with his jealousy, his phone rang. He quickly removed it 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiviFOD9baO
from his pocket and answered it.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWczt6D4Jn

"Hello? Christine?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlKJPgWKRT

I was now attentive. Had she found Zoey? I wished I could have talked to her myself.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuGbYHO422

"Okay, we will be right there. Inform the others as well."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMk2KWrRBI

"What happened?" I asked after he cut the call.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXlCoAagVd

"Christine called to tell me that she knows where Zoey is."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILTQwg19c6

"Where is she?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkcld0wGu8

"She is at a famous café. I know where it is."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDJMopcwdr

"But how did Christine know where Zoey is?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PR74KHxKp

"Zoey's phone went back on and she texted where she was. And she is not alone."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoanSZOyMC

"Who is she with?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCFKBqG69w

"We're about to find out. Let's go."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9p7jcpTyX

G-Dragon got up from the984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9kjhP09ge
ground and he held out his hand to me. I took it and he pulled me up 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYNnd03dLD
from the ground. We left the park together, heading towards his car.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VVGIoiAEA

When we got in his car, 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDNXK0Do4H
we drove through the city and we arrived at this small fancy café. We 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkckfnwbe3n
parked across the street and before we could get out of the car, I 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrJt5Eeks0
looked across towards the café.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyYKjsDOQu

"Can you see, Zoey?" G-Dragon asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlBineYZhW

Through the huge window,984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPU38vjGXm
I could see what was going on inside. Looked like a lot of people 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2F2zNypurD
enjoyed coming over to the café. The place was parked for an ordinary 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmg3U3WUgg
day in the afternoon.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBU8EziYTb8

I searched for Zoey, but984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbai63dRkU
I couldn't see her. It was then that I saw Zoey at the far corner of 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cHKuop9yN
the café. She was facing the window side and I saw her with someone. 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVex5l5NRWW
Sitting opposite her was a man in a fancy looking black suit. From afar,984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0DuUrhHB0
I could tell his suit was expensive and I couldn't see his face.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdCcjo8Gk9

"I see her," I said. "And she is definitely with someone."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyolIGa196h

"Who is it?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfat7sEYwN

"I don't know. By the look of his suit, he seems like a business man or one rich tycoon."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMf0QlU8REd

"Seriously?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeKclrYxBy

"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?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUe2c6VDfb9

G-Dragon looked towards the windshield, avoiding my gaze. "No, I'm not. I'm just wondering who it was, that's all."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8BR1vFoof

I rolled my eyes and 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cJdMJzZqI
said nothing more. I went back to looking at the café and focused on 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIhqtPszsW
Zoey. I decided to read her body language and see if she was okay. She 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCx9wWJoNFq
looked like she was enjoying herself, chatting with this stranger.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmwIx3cCwa

She was sipping her cup 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XnKQ0KAD3
of coffee and she went back to smiling at the stranger. Something was a 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt53uEWbqkA
bit off and I shifted on my seat to see if I was seeing right.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrVjOvAC69

"Hey, is something wrong?" G-Dragon asked, noticing my tension.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4Urcedxhr

"Ya."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpboGY3zaku

G-Dragon also turned on his seat and looked through the window.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRm4YswOF8l

Zoey's smile made me 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlvopYy4nn
wonder what was going on. She was smiling and chatting but she looked a 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7DbMxzdq5
little nervous. Usually when she is with a guy, she was always the one 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH815dtbIeb
who was never scared of leading the conversation and became pretty984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqvqTWci1C
comfortable with the person. Unless the guy was creepy enough to be a serial killer.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMank8tjjf

I felt a threat coming 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0bthglt7i
up. Was this guy dangerous? Zoey had a nervous smile on her face and if I984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCrXbtpap5
was not mistaken, I think I noticed her fingers tap frantically on the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsZHnMMojH
table. She did that whenever she was nervous. I had to know what was 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpptZoLv5r
going on in there.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0u6Z6dR9b7

"Let's go," I said as I turned to look at G-Dragon. "I'm not liking this."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCOiwPCmtc

"Thank you," said G-Dragon, looking relieved. "I had a bad feeling about this guy."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiV45wPYyy

"Ya, right," I said as I grabbed the handle of the door, opened it and stepped out.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzPl1Takut

Just as G-Dragon came 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDytkrfFqa
out of the car, three cars appeared off the main road and came to park 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOc64IP7BP
in the parking space behind G-Dragon's car. The others had arrived.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmFLJBEV2m

"Christine told us to meet you here," said Taeyang as he and Mike came out of his car.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPC9vU2A7pP

"Zoey's in the café," I said as I pointed across the road.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2LvVmousp

"Alright, let's go," said Seungri.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zQ62S0dV6

When I looked back at the café window, I noticed that Zoey was all alone on her table. That was odd. Where was he?984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ861YQ2ZfD4

"Oh, no, no, no," I said staring wide eyed inside the café.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZctQkRU5SY

"What is it, Sam?" Daesung asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVKc6RU02E

I didn't answer him as I984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yOuZa96sP
quickly dashed across the road without even checking for any cars. I 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPq7b71DUc7
could hear the others behind call out to me to be careful. I luckily 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BXxHdalrh
managed to reach the café without getting hit.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXsb2gkzfo

When I got to the café, a984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIhaTVwzFi
few people came out through the door. None of them matched the person 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeI0WUS0hG
who was in the café with Zoey. I quickly went in and I found Zoey still 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLi4SZPJRr
sitting in the corner. I rushed over to her that my presence scared her.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePTxByUoeA

"Sam! You scared me to death!" Zoey held her chest as she breathed in and out so heavily, trying to calm down.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYSRQnxdip

"Where did you go?" I asked, taking the seat the stranger had been sitting on earlier.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOBPPRSzKs

"Oh, I...um.." Zoey played with her fingers.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBD75FmV8lv

"Don't you dare try to 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLHyZ2vOTS
lie to me, Zoey," I threatened. "You went with GD for lunch and the two 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9y91hT897
of you went to the park. When GD went to get ice cream, you had 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qNIdMnNCW
disappeared. And the next thing we know, you're here."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Nlo9DotU5

"Christine told you where I was?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPNiFF4t9s

"Of course she had to. We were worried sick."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNjo7TpW8V

I heard the bell of the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡst4fADNyO6
café ring and I knew the others had arrived. They soon came over by the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0YHrSh3SI
table. Only Taeyang, G-Dragon and Daniel were the ones who came in.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomeDgwnuIo

"Zoey where have you been?" Daniel asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYF6v0KV50

"And who was that guy you were with, huh?" G-Dragon asked, looking down at Zoey with a frown on his face.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOD0X1Jusw

"Awww, are you jealous, my G-Dragon?" Zoey smiled at him.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzO7XxNkVKW

"Stop taking all this 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmudjcXOUP
like a joke, Zoey. I saw the way you were behaving with him. You weren't984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjb3GUAfvg
yourself when I saw you from across the street," I said.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJoXgDXPQX

The smile on Zoey's face984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyacyoP3Kp
disappeared in an instant. Good. Maybe now she would take us seriously.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bwy0Fc5qm
Her safety was way more important than she could ever imagine. If 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafKgugtY2V
anything had happened to her, a lot of us here would never forgive 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Kd2FY1vQm
ourselves.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHXHbxtIGm

"Can we please get out of here?" Taeyang suggested. "This isn't the place to discuss this."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMzmLO2x1J

"You're right," I said 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYN4CeGdIja
as I looked around the café and many heads were turning our way. I hated984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguWVHOKOPn
attracting so much attention sometimes.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡup0mxxa0s8

The others had started 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3vzavxpoN
to leave and Zoey and I both stood up from the table. I noticed the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtTdu9ERaK
teacup the stranger had used and my mind still couldn't stop thinking 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwceuqOCDM
about who he was.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANh0zpYfaE

After we left the café, 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFZzC95O6D
we went back across the road where the vehicles were parked. Daesung, 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ852VsMsOMI
TOP, Mike and Daesung stood waiting for us.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrWcsGJn1g

"Thank goodness, you're alright, Zoey," said Daesung.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAtJ4skPV6

"Ya, thank goodness you weren't lost," said Mike. "We wondered if we would find you in a ditch or something."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlAUi4yOtL

Zoey frowned at Mike and all he could do was smile back at her mischievously.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVvw6dMPhF

"Let's all go back to the hotel, shall we?" I suggested. "Zoey can tell us everything from there."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfh3qe3mxtR

Zoey and I went in 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxEhQ6PfcO
G-Dragon's car making sure I sat in the backseat. The others got in the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69gAGIPRn2
other cars and we drove off, G-Dragon's car leading the way.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ762vAo9Oca

We were all back in the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiDou4fp13
hotel on our floor. Luckily, Collins wasn't around. I was relieved. Now I984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRcxmlyzoj
could vent out all my anger on Zoey.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CjxnidxQI

We gathered ourselves in984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCY4BmH4hK
the lounge. The others sat on the couch and made themselves 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhDGTHYmQj
comfortable. Zoey and I were left standing and I looked at her, with my 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ez2NLsxA3
hands on my hips.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdl3MaY8gZg

"Okay, let's start with why you disappeared?" I asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKTC4R0Y0X

"No, don't ask that," said G-Dragon. "Ask who she was with first."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoG9Iu9WPEL

"I'm the one asking the questions." I turned to face G-Dragon. "I want to know what made her go like that."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPASwQlEGOv

"Fine, I tell you," said984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0x6MsSvnY
Zoey raising her hand to calm me down. "G-Dragon went over to get some 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk33d9egELd
ice cream when a person came up to me. Said he was my biggest fan."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVzGiBLt6m

"Don't tell me you fell for the person's good looks like always," said Christine shaking her head.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3CNN0O4ni

"You know handsome men are my weakness," said Zoey. "Sorry G-Dragon."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv59QfT8aEy

"No, I don't mind," said984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZj4SSWOJbn
G-Dragon, shaking his head. I looked at him again and I was surprised 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpty6EBcX0
with the look on his face that he really didn't mind at all.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0RIoRfcgC

"So, he said he is your biggest fan and then what?" Taeyang asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9i7etovEM

"He offered that the two of us go out for some coffee," said Zoey. "That's how I left."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BfZz8p8Pn

"Now that makes no sense or maybe you have no sense, Zoey," said Seungri.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89CO90DLtJ

"Huh?" Zoey looked at Seungri, looking embarrassed.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjs73VyRZT

"As much as that sounds 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbW4rqnm8Ew
totally embarrassing, Seungri is right," said Christine. "What you said 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95WrymtIlx
doesn't make sense at all. How could you go out for coffee with someone 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiW6nRKkFVe
you claims to be your fan without taking G-Dragon along with you?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTm6APBxbV

I started to tap my foot984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7AMkfQLwo
and looked at Zoey, ready to breathe out fire if necessary. Christine 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxV7OrDZXPw
was right and surprisingly, Seungri too. She wasn't telling us the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLnzcSHJ6m
truth.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHZg2UKNRs

"Come on, Zoey, tell us 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pr8jzaFEe
what really happened," I said. "You couldn't leave without GD. And you 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbxvgPAJel
had your phone turned off. All I know about the person you were with is 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkpLSAe5gA
that he was wearing an expensive black suit."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqKHsmbgco

"Okay, do you really want to know the truth?" Zoey asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrcsARIyzV

"Yes!" everyone replied at the same time, that almost made Zoey jump in fright.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAnnnflEfp

"Okay, okay, eish," said984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahyhrpGFMD
Zoey. "You scared the hell out of me. The truth is, I went with my fan 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoa5UaftBhn
because he insisted that I go with him and not tell anyone about it."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kqjsqlt1L

"Huh?" TOP looked confused.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23CEJe5jAm

"What fan lays out that kind of condition?" Mike asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZgNBtu5lc

"Someone who was ready to take advantage of Zoey," I answered.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReBFvroxrz

"If he did, you guys still wouldn't have found me," said Zoey.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl87jsyvfeU

"If he did, you wouldn't have been looking so nervous in the café."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZCL3YYwht

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.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm509iyj4Mt

"Then what were you two talking about?" I asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7Vq9IWMH5

"Just stuff," said Zoey, avoiding my eyes. "About me and my celebrity life."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREUX5HOSs2

"You're sure?" I asked. "Didn't he talk about himself?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAHfVfCTVJ

"Ya, totally." Zoey nodded her head. He never said anything about himself. Not even his name."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8Hy9GINmn

"Then why did you look so nervous in the café?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgEvHMbNN0

"He was asking some personal questions I didn't like."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0usLXo1PT4

"Are you sure?" Daniel 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kPcGWyRCk
asked. "When someone asks you a personal question, you either snap back 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fxWVlIXnV
at them or walk away. Whether it's an annoying reporter, any of your 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuwmNbivgH
haters or even us."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQQgjarctP

Daniel was right. Zoey 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZUVjdhZpG
would have stood and walked away from the stranger but she didn't. I 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6H9QJwHDC
wondered what question he might have asked her. That's if Zoey was 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZ4ysTWhwD
telling the truth.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlk5vH2qsk

"I didn't want to look so mean in front of him," said Zoey. "He seemed like a very nice guy."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHQW0TFVwT

"A very nice guy that 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahTseBrVEO
made you run off with him, made you switch off your phone and made you 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jZWFxgr8S
so uncomfortable," said G-Dragon, looking really irritated.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZbHcHPQJx

"Come on," said Zoey. "He wasn't that bad, seriously."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPH3EKCAPD

I didn't want to 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTW7yI5nZvX
pressurise Zoey with more questions. Right now, she was getting away 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbu0c0oG26O
with it. If she was hiding something, I would find out sooner or later.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCId1lJ0gH

"Okay," I said. "We're just glad you're fine."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdP2fXFE60Y

"And not dead," said 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4xQHtAwrz
Mike with a smirk. Seungri and Christine who sat on either side of him, 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoXW7eyjPZ
both gave him the elbow in the side and he howled in pain.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfshICbDPOt

"I'll pretend I never heard that," said Zoey.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO66w1W8gfz

"And you better get 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcjd93bVwv
ready for Collins," I said giving Zoey a smirk of my own. "We told him 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAz3xOlIMUN
you had a bad tummy ache and that's why you weren't at the studio."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdLetgXjpx

"Seriously?" Zoey gave me an angry stare. "Couldn't you have told him a better lie?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcTxMR3o51

"That you were missing? Fat chance. You've already put some of us into enough trouble for one day."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhPkwDtndi

"Alright. Sorry. I won't do that again."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuVmVrtzKs

I rolled my eyes, while shaking my head and went over to the dining table. Something told me it wouldn't be the last.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb45KI3YtA6

"Well, now that you're found," said Daesung, as he stood up. "Some of us better get going."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3TLqhoGpe

"Sorry for putting you guys into so much trouble," said Zoey.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyc40LT1LP

"As long as you're fine and Collins isn't going to kill us, it's okay," said Taeyang with a smile.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPHHARiTfF

"I'll be leaving too," said Seungri and he gave Zoey a hug and he walked over to hug me as well.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22yecBBCYq

"Alright, see you tomorrow," I said.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXvwnF9rsM

One by one the BigBang 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfk7TK1ThQ
members started to leave, saying bye to each other. G-Dragon stayed 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZpQ0kacOL
behind with Zoey so that they could talk a little. Giving them privacy, 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPePufsOd9b
Christine, my brothers and I left for our rooms.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBML53KWXpQ

When I went in my room, I984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoTgGrg0Wb
went for my phone that was still charging on my bed. The phone was 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPQVqRhyIs
still off and I decided to switch it on. It was almost full.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpK6462mba

There was a knock on the door and I called out to the person to come in. Christine entered.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJSoMBnQNq

"Hey, can we talk?" Christine asked as she closed the door behind her.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZBrxSiEoi

"About what?" I turned to look at her.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lUZ4jFvkt

"Do you really believe what Zoey told us?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknBvjTxMzu

"No, I don't." I sat on the bed.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ADI6PQgZ0

"Looks like I'm not the only one," said Christine as she came to sit on Zoey's bed, facing me.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFSIyklpKS

"I wonder why she isn't telling us the truth."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjomrahgXq

"Did you see the man's face?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwaN0EbtLr

"No. All I could say is that he wore a fancy and expensive suit."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgTZoLq4O1

"I wonder who he is. Maybe he is some rich tycoon or something."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXF03db2Fug

"That's what I thought too." I gave Christine a smile.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq036nQNM5G

"I bet he is good 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdk9SqgUhp
looking too. I still wonder why Zoey left like that without telling 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTnpDXI11W
anyone. Do you think she really did all that just because the stranger 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0QxInsled
told her to?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCf9Vz5PMlz

"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?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsi9PBOErfk

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."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOwIPCsE1o

"You said so yourself, Christine. There is no other explanation. He might have blackmailed her or something."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVITYDH2C5p

"Okay, but blackmailed her with what?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGtHLUZuPx

"That we have to find out."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cVB4eO481

I was just about to grab my phone and check out if I had any messages when Zoey came in the room.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQKcGi7vNO

"Oh. Has GD left already?" Christine asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMHsdiopvO

"Ya. He left," Zoey replied. I heard a bit of sadness in her voice.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bM7kmfUgX

"Are you okay? You don't look alright," I said.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDzGxnKe3w

"I'm fine. G-Dragon and I talked about something serious."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvabgxiwx0

Oh my. Had he told her 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlecUmKaFcA
about what we had discussed earlier at the park? As much as I knew it 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYmodLleLQ
was going to hurt Zoey, it was for the best. Besides, she was going to 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg88IK4wPRH
find someone way better than G-Dragon. Hopefully, even me.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHR1YCDTZAz

"What did you talk about?" I asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4EjDD3uLl

"He was just pissed that984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByWegDz8BO
I left like that," Zoey answered. "He thought maybe he said something 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAknaiQ3SiO
that might have upset me or something."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYGmjGZb2R

"Oh." That wasn't what I was expecting. "Well, I had asked him earlier if he had said something that might have upset you."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dOK3eC1S4

"But he didn't."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKy3OiBcSvy

"I see why Sam asked," 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf19IqKeSja
said Christine. "When someone gets you so upset, you run away. You've 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbwfzm3RqG
done that many times before back home during our school days, you know?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQSPCpqPAg

"Ya I know. Forget about it." Zoey waved her hand in annoyance. "What's happened has happened."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIbFOcQere

And I hope it will never984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXblrwoQYjM
happen again, but this guy in the suit still worried me. Until I know 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJ8RFQZpYa
who he is, I wasn't going to pretend that the worst has passed when it 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6srMB9ajWj
was yet to come at any moment.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTrVRqz0Dq

The next thing I knew, the door to our room flew open and Lee walked in.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaBZ8NiNdB

"Lee!" the three of us exclaimed in excitement.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvstqY03xFG

"Wow! Did you guys miss me?" Lee asked with a smile on her face.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1D82cuM8so

"Ya, we did," said Zoey, putting her arm over Lee's shoulders.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvWsHVVs5I

"Well, I missed you too," said Lee. "So, what happened today? I heard you never finished up on the song."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHHMJNasgB

Christine, Zoey and I 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXweD0v2DGw
shook our heads and talked randomly at the same time, saying nothing 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYmsws4DsW
really happened. Lee knew something was up and even if it could clearly 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPvwCRI8a6
show on her face, she didn't push us. She just smiled.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAustGG78qL

"Well, you'll tell me later," said Lee. "Collins and I were just....."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkQZBMeOuU

"Collins is here!" Zoey's face went white like a sheet.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrCFxOS4xm

"Yes, he is," said Lee 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jj4sgzm9i
with a wicked smile. "Now if you don't want to get into trouble, I 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrWF4mivC2
suggest you go on your bed and cry out that you still aren't feeling 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfbmswUlAj
well."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkVqmdbijg

Christine and I almost burst out laughing. Zoey frowned.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPYi9zpcoU

"Ha, ha, very funny," said Zoey as she went over to her bed and sat down.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVWY4vXXYm

"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."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0bRFZqjQk

"Us?" I asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknE9OJfdd9

"Ya, the letter on the package was directed to The Toxins. It's with Collins in the lounge."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05UkKRP2zu

Christine and I rushed 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRpqkEupQ9
out of the room leaving Zoey with Lee. She had to pretend she was still 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgXR1xbNnI
not feeling well. We found Collins in the lounge with the package in his984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡni4TPdtrZC
hand.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnd4uZXl6eK

"Hey, Collins," I said. "What's that?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKvKD1oJCG

"This came in for you guys," said Collins. "And with a letter too."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCE4tgsGTQ3

"Did I hear there is something for us?" Daniel asked as he and Mike came in the lounge.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoOndSeQbj

"Ya. Here you go." Collins gave me the package.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIxW2pORiv

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.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufFTsLzSTB

I took the letter and 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxvHv8TRCP
gave the package for Christine to hold and opened the envelope to remove984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26tipTVf7O
a letter. I unfolded the letter and I read it out loud:984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjhaR57qhI

"Hope you're all okay. Just wanted to say I'm your biggest fan. With lots of love."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzSWl7mjJg

"That's it?" Mike asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UlmT16wcX

"Ya, that's pretty much it," I said, looking behind the letter but there was nothing. "No name at all."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPfp0p4kmu

"Did you see anyone who sent this?" Daniel asked Collins.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7pquwLur7

"All that the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjecqQrGYRX
receptionist told us was that some young man in a suit gave it to her 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kqZG4CYRr
and she should give either you guys or us when we came by the lobby."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxe78xR5z1

My eyes went wide and my984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbj5e9kliLU
heart pace quickened. Did Collins just say a young man in a suit? Maybe984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbm9Q2chIr9
I heard wrong and needed some clarification.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNv7J23ss8v

"A young man in a suit?" Mike asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBGEiGuPyd

"Ya. Do you perhaps know him?" Collins asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzerBai4Oy9

"Huh, no," said Christine, shaking her head.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYytSD2fbu

"Oh. For a moment there, you guys looked a little frightened," said Collins. "I thought you might know him."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsghAigLMr7

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?984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DBJw1tzxm

"Open it, Christine," said Daniel.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4PgZuafEb

Christine threw Daniel 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVEdCLMhuK
an angry glance. She obviously didn't want to open it and I knew what 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxrugYTmAJ
she was thinking. What if there was a bomb inside? Or maybe something to984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyMTlhOC9A
threaten or blackmail us? You could only think of the worst from a 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEwBW5CPpE
person you barely even knew.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXP0mGsN0i

"Let me," I said as I took the package from Christine and I sat down on the couch with the package on my lap.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTM4jZdab5

Collins was watching us for a second and then left the lounge. I sighed in relief and so did the others.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWvY0gSvUU

"I thought he would never leave," Mike whispered after we heard the door to Collins' room open and close.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLsF8JFrVH

"Can you check if he is really in his room?" I asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WGMWnqWtr

Mike went in the hall and came back seconds later. "He is in the room."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsppKgHSHVZ

"I'm really nervous," said Christine. "What is in there?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEshVzKwPU

"I don't know," said Daniel. "I hope it is nothing that could kill us."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXjdDmfKP3

Mike hit Daniel at the back of his head and Daniel whined in pain.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJBAkS1v77

"Don't say that," said Mike. "I don't want to die soon."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwp7t3fQPvj

"Guys, calm down," I said. "Let's just open this thing and see what's in it."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSw1elYh7BA

"Okay, but take your 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUA2oG3Ar1d
time," said Christine. "If there is a bomb in there, I want to say my 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZbsO9HGfY
last prayers before I leave this earth."984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTuH8xwHJO

I rolled my eyes but I 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTI0k3SaXun
was as scared as the rest of them. If we were to make out of this alive,984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRQN8wU7JC
I was going to kill Zoey myself for dragging us into this mess.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnXNQh2URm

I started to unwrap the package. It was a white box.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0nkiCqYSu

The other three couldn't984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMI6IakdKC
stop staring at the box and I needed to end this paranoia once and for 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4U4e3hNefT
all. I quickly removed the lid without thinking that there might be 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1fHbknq9s
something dangerous in the box. The others even covered their faces. But984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoeIyrJB09
nothing happened.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vmfuzbcKi

"What the....?" I looked in the box and what I saw, shocked me completely.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcH19dnzB7y

"What is it?" Christine asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZZtV9srUq

I looked up at the 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfymUKZjILz
others and they bended over to see what was in the box. Their jaws 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZLHwfXUAo
dropped almost at the same time and we looked at each other.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGzdlnumJ0

"This is just ridiculous," I said as I shook my head.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnCDJb6a2e

Christine, Mike and Daniel suddenly burst out laughing.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQK2hlJEYcL

Zoey and Lee came rushing into the lounge.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2hNBfM70i

"Hey? What's going on?" Zoey asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wFbjoCDKl

No one answered. I was too speechless to say anything and the rest were still laughing.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcW4AA2qPZN

"What is in the package, Sam?" Lee asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStEC5J7wrc

I soon removed a little cute brown teddy bear and held it up for Zoey and Lee to see.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGlPXfLYhp

"Huh? You're laughing all because of a teddy bear?" Zoey looked at the others, wondering if they were okay in the head.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTFM3v8FXl

"Oh, my goodness, Zoey," said Christine trying to catch her breath with tears in her eyes. "Can't you see it?"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBZ0njfdOR

"See what?" Zoey and Lee asked the same time.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxfWcmGcvm

"The...the...suit!" Mike laughed even more, pointing at the teddy bear.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSkqmGoo4t

It was then that Zoey 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaLKS08DVF
looked at the bear in my hand and recognised that the tiny teddy bear 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95x1HkbWDq
wore a tiny black suit with a tiny black tie. Zoey looked like she was 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWcrUEqJTr
about to get sick. Looked like she already figured out it was the984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGSbxhkmIy
stranger who she was with today that sent it.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqNPeNq3O7

"Guys, what am I missing here?" Lee asked.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxTJRJq8Yo

"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.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ18XppJnUR

The other three continued to laugh when they saw Zoey take the bear. Lee looked as confused as ever.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ucgyG6oqf

"And here I thought it was a bomb," said Daniel, wiping away the tears in his eyes.984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN15SBmuiuv

"Ya. But it just turned out to be a bear in a suit," said Christine. "A harmless bear!"984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXC6Rlj2dFJ

This time, they laughed 984Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7Z26XEhDr
