Stuck In A K-Pop World: Hitting With A Big Bang (A Black Kitty Series, Book 1) - Chapter 21: At The Mall

Sunday was quiet and 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtZFIP0QXF
pretty not much the same when you know that your best friend isn't 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGi1ZDPUVY
talking to you anymore. As much as I would have liked to bring up any 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciF8S4aT6T
random topic just for Zoey to talk to me, I knew she wouldn't respond or1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLiFMx0a76
listen. She wouldn't even stay in the same room with me.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbe0FmxWHM5

Last night, Zoey moved 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMVM4gckZh
out from our room and since we booked the entire floor, she went over to1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GLHwJM6Rj
the other room, far away from me. I couldn't blame her though and I 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡar2Gc8kyam
didn't even try to talk her out of it. No one even bothered to try and 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlZ6QEqtrc
talk to her either.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMocCHd5j9r

And so did Collins, who had no idea what was going on.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaAevepWnd

It so happened that 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMg0kzyoAvR
while Zoey was moving out of our room with some of her personal 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEgkde5acl
belongings, Collins appeared out of the elevator. He had asked her what 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXRZ4egRmx
was going on and as usual, when Zoey is upset, she hardly talks to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUCcp4sr2t
anyone. When Collins asked the rest of us what was going on, I told him 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzdvLVqzQD
that Zoey and I had an argument. With that, he didn't ask any more.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSm5Lg1e0b

Now, I was sitting 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PTo8I2kBL
lazily on the couch in the lounge on a Sunday, trying to see anything 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdVZufSe4i
interesting to watch on YouTube so as to pass time since my brothers had1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LKxLdVkLh
now taken control of the TV playing Call of Duty. I did enjoy myself 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhF8qlbRLef
watching k-pop music videos with the likes of BTS, EXO and many others.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9OTKEjPnR

I was lying down in a sleeping position, still watching videos when Lee came into the lounge.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnF0MgE3rL

"Are you just going to sit there the whole day like a lazy bum?" Lee asked as she came over to me.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxV32vwE7G

"What?" I asked as I removed an earpiece from my ear. I heard her loud and clear even with my earpieces on.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEm4GYCxC80

"You heard me," said Lee looking down on me, with an annoying look on her face. "Are you going to sit here the whole day?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YyokKqNYg

"Uh, ya," I nodded my head and put the earpiece back in my ear.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zHCjObas5

"Get up, let's go," said Lee as she pushed my legs and they dropped from the couch to the floor.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0u9DmkmAa

"Lee!" I whined, putting1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtu8tdf2TiR
my feet back up on the couch. Daniel and Mike who were on the floor 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xaUigvHOh
facing the TV, turned to look at Lee and I, pausing their game.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8g3BiZXKeg

"This isn't like you, Sam," said Lee, dropping my feet again. "You need to go out and have fun. It's Sunday."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRxRfyQkeO

"But I want to be here and watch videos on YouTube," I said as I sat upright.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmzPZG2Oje

"No buts, Sam. We're going out whether you like it or not."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybJHIyGEju

"Why? I want to stay here."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFWSA7eeyq

"I need to go and shop 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFFvcj5htW
for a few things and I think it will do you a lot of good too. Not after1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pB7fVC42N
what happened yesterday. I can tell you need a distraction."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8ZYzEThB7

"But watching YouTube 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkX9OIlMVR
videos is the perfect distraction if you ask me. Besides, you should 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXZzkSB3vZ
check out these other k-pop artists and groups. They are so awesome."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspEZY4pgHW

Lee turned to my brothers who still had their eyes on us the entire time. "Help me out here, guys. What should I do?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgzTwOVi3j

"I think Lee is right, 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfKImHV3qO
Sam," said Daniel. "We all aren't busy today and you usually like going 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDblD0LTNk
out on Sundays like you do back home."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSKfXiRMaQ

"But what's wrong with staying here for a while and do nothing but watch videos?" I asked, looking at my brothers.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxY4jx6TspV

"I know you're a fan of 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ROap904qz
YouTube but the Sam I know wouldn't be here lazing around after what 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yzv7ORK1K
happened with G-Dragon and Zoey," said Mike.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrA2RMYWkR

"So, what you're trying to say is that I've to try and figure out what to do with those two?" I asked.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu13qbTYuzU

"Well, that's what 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfN22jNPrBC
you're good at," said Daniel. "You did say you were going to try and 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddDBtcyEZj
resolve things with Zoey. You usually come up with ideas to do so."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4KfRMgVNJ

"But that's when I decide to go out somewhere and think."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmt1JRb4pXK

"That's what we are 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71YmhTfNi3
telling you, Sam. Start thinking things out or else at the end of it 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNx0995FU49
all, we won't be able to make the music video. Not with Zoey acting like1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74cLV94zFn
the goddess of wrath and G-Dragon still mad at you."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ek7aiO1F0

Daniel's right. I had to1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSmZzXO59g
figure out what to do with those two and me sitting here wasn't going 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlrIjGq6JB
to solve anything. But how could I tell them that there were now other 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcGICnOpyf
problems to deal with? Like Zoey and Derrick's brother for example?1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBm1xl9vBC

Unlike the others, Lee 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrAjuSvBoi
was the only person whom I told about what happened when I left YG 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2aRH1VUqJ
yesterday to meet with Derrick who told me what had been going on with 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQNPfOTxFu
Zoey and his brother. And right now, dealing with Derrick's brother was 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvceEglenSQ
going to be a lot tougher than trying to sort things out with G-Dragon 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG76SWpoJqa
and Zoey together.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnXsUukpuV

I really wanted to tell 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YHkqi5LO9
these guys what was going on. Besides, they were there with Zoey in 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmyRs1NoUo
Paris and they might have some clue as to what was really going on. But I1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3oCij9KQt
didn't want to worry them. Not yet, at least. I had already put them 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyPNU2VLyX
through a lot because of my secrets and I was doing so all over again. 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2CtbFfXCM
When was I ever going to change?1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZFfRjWYg0

"Okay, I'll go," I said as I stood up. "You're right. I have to think of something, and fast."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtb7eVaH9c3

"Great," said Lee. "Now, go get your shoes. Collins isn't around so we can stay out for as long as we want."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KmyqC7fTY

"Has anyone seen Christine?" Daniel asked.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qWQS9CWPM

"She is with Zoey," said Mike, rolling his eyes as he mentioned Zoey's name. "They are probably in the room talking."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQqBkSEzdq

"Hopefully, Christine would be able to convince Zoey to forgive me," I said.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcttZDxNtBU

Lee, Mike and Daniel 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaPMYlYPIa
shook their heads and muttered out words of disapproval. I didn't say 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiiEghvixE
anything, as I also shook my head. I went out of the lounge, straight to1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZP4aa8If5d
my room to get my shoes.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkM3EbHLZY

After I wore my white 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZK7U6xvhps
pumps to match with my white jeans and purple tank top, I took my purse 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbNWy4Eb1u
and went to Christine's room. I made sure to knock first, and when 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLd6LhAr09M
Christine called from inside to come in, I slowly opened the door. I 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJE4CChFt1J
didn't go in the room as I saw Christine and Zoey on the bed facing each1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmoTnH9L8O
other. They were quiet when they saw me at the door.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLovxRWlYYT

"Hey," I said. Zoey looked away, ignoring me. "Lee and I will be going out. I just wanted to let you know."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMqT3u2lk6

"Okay," said Christine. "Have fun."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamGd3JfGK1

I nodded my head and quickly closed the door. It was still clear that Zoey didn't want to talk to me.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOjBKnTPfp

I walked down the hall and back to the lounge where Lee was waiting for me.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xCac23t33

"We can go, now," I told her.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvl9iV5EhG

"Alright, see you guys," said Lee as she turned to the boys.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8KTHQHpNR

"Bye," said Mike, his eyes glued to the TV screen and his fingers continually working on the control buttons on the game pad.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPonMmR2omQ

"Have fun, Sam," said Daniel as he managed to look at me and smile.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhmgMcCYJH

I smiled back at him. 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiXLlTDgd5
Then Lee and I took off for the elevator. When we reached the ground 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplCyjaqlEx
floor, the SUV was waiting for us as usual. And there were two body 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarR2GkveQv
guards in the other SUV.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0zdehL8fK

"Looks like you have everything planned out for the day," I said as I entered the car and Lee followed.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLdomAluPr

"Well, someone had to bring you back to reality and focus on what's really important," said Lee, as she closed the door.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9An8Td9sOL

"If you mean Zoey and G-Dragon, I don't know what to do anymore."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjmrVz2lNr

The car's engine roared to life and the car drove out for the hotel premises with other car following behind us.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AJKh23n2V

"So, where are we going?" I asked.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0kmJt4UT5

"To the mall," Lee answered.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1KTBA51vF

"How will the mall help me figure things out?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTZaeU8iUU

"What's wrong with the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyaps9aGxF
mall? Just trying to distract yourself will help you out. Sometimes the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxEfKDejtS
best plans just come out of the blue."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzyfHPzWeY

"I should have just stayed behind and continued watching videos."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgEefJbamw

"And waste the day away? No way."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4TK8yW9xv

"Come on, Lee. Right now, I have no idea what to do and watching videos was the perfect way to distract myself."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjg0siUBWrU

"I know. I had to get you away from there so that we can talk about Derrick's brother."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9L9aVhbmS

"And what am I going to do with him? Unless I find out what Zoey's hiding, I can't come up with anything."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQMHpkDozM

"Didn't you check around the room for any clues?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOv7OCa7JY

"No. Zoey might have 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMld07GkbU
moved some of her stuff out of the room, but if she was hiding 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMFsIehwfF
something, she isn't dumb enough to leave it behind. I checked last 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Em3QE2WJA
night when she moved out and I couldn't find anything."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBtlFBHDLW

"Well that's a bummer. What do you think she's hiding?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW381SZHUEr

"I don't know. But the way Derrick described his brother, I'm expecting it's something serious."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQtHCIHeG6

"Are you sure you checked everywhere?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLu2EUmd8D

"The closet, her suitcase and even under the bed. There is nothing."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71tIJQAQrf

Lee remained quiet and as for me, I went to looking at the windshield in front of me, looking down the streets of Seoul.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRfwaSeDd4

"I don't know what to do1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIiKFKDnlj
anymore," I said, my eyes still on the road. "Now that I know that Zoey1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqU5AK4wAB
might be in trouble, I can't just sit by and watch quietly. I know Zoey1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsABYYkRA2
doesn't like to admit she is in trouble, but I have to help her out 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnakfjrYwP
somehow."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdylKuUzAI

"But we can't do this alone, you know? At some point, we will have to involve the others too."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqI1X7PDl6

"True. And I'll also have to ask the others their side of the story with what happened in Paris."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXZjeJEwRA

"Mmm. Acting a true detective. Trying to put one piece of a puzzle together with another."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcR6UvKwDuT

I folded my arms as I 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRqNdRzmn9
leaned back further in my seat, the wheels of my mind starting to work 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNbu02QFTv
but I couldn't figure out what to do. I had too many problems to deal 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWksZ5nUASP
with and it was driving me nuts. I wonder why I wasn't running around 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12jlvxHOqV
the street with a crazy hairdo at this point.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjE3q4vzMdO

We soon reached the mall1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9NGP6HNM6
and we came out of the car, heading towards the building with our two 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfKnYB97fg
body guards behind us. I carried my shades with me this time and I wore 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtgkugEm7k
them as we went in the mall. I could already feel eyes on me and see 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6umkE0gAg4
phones coming out out of people's pockets as we passed. I was glad that 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwXF3gtnTv
the bodyguards were around.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbA0hKn24h7

Lee and I first went 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KrM9EOowq
shopping for clothes. We even tried out some of them. I had to admit, 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfLj3U5iDl
shopping and trying out new clothes made me forget about some things for1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbyO2dU8AN
a while. I was having fun.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCo6arw7epp

And when it came to the fans, some were brave enough to go past the guards and come take photos with me and take autographs.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZGakzisBp

Lee and I soon came out 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxi7TdU6T9
of a shoe store after buying some expensive shoes. I bet I bought more 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCTxKDWEvM
clothes than shoes and Lee was vice versa. We even managed to buy a few 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrYZ1AeWyg
things for the others as well. The bodyguards had to help us out with 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45ZQsD0tRK
our bags because we bought way too much.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9vA9Xv61w

When we walked out of 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLACKNtict
the store, Lee suggested that we go down to the food court and get 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixYyAzms8M
ourselves something to eat. We were above the ground floor and just as 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKSF2QpdZl
we were about to take the glass elevator, I noticed that opposite the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvhoveN398
elevator was a toy store. I looked at the toys shown on display.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQlxkeNoiS

"Hey, what are you looking at?" Lee asked as she noticed that I had stopped.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhT4kvWgvp

I couldn't answer Lee. I1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEnvcXV0Hs
also didn't know why I was staring at the toys on display. Something 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPw5VbFAEOc
had drawn me to this store and I wondered what it was.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gf6Z9rKNB

"Hello! Earth to Sam!" Lee's fingers snapped in front of me.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefeMU2PP3B

"Huh?" I turned to look at Lee.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9l71HPUjwT

"What's wrong? What are you looking at?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHhZ1uKun4

"I..." I went back to looking at the toys on the glass display. "I don't know."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmF9YqKFwH

"You don't know? You're staring at those toys like you want to buy them all."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDmk1qgtgo

"I'm not a child, Lee." I rolled my eyes at her.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡej5wan2UHm

"Then why are you looking at those toys like that?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡch2swg3nn1

"I...I..." I scratched my head. This was weird even for me too.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOktVUycdJG

I looked at each and 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCLSmgiNLt
every single toy on display till my eyes rested on a huge brown teddy 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTuXAda6D1
bear. I looked at it for a while until my mind clicked.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmBuHF842w

"Teddy," I said, looking at Lee.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXm3fkBo7W

"What?" Lee looked 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPE0vh6syf
really confused and I bet in her mind she was obviously thinking that I 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxtLB8AEOA
was crazy. "You want a teddy bear? But you already have a stuffed 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0GtLcobZ9
panda."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgW4SgE5G2u

"No, not that. Mr Teddy. The little teddy bear back at the hotel."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVjhXa8SVg

"Ya? What's wrong with it?" Lee asked as she shrugged.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYNH4DoVJk

"Derrick's brother sent 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcreymkBk7w
it to us that day, remember?" I hit my head in frustration. "Gosh! I 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIHKQZBwrz
should have asked Derrick if he knew that his brother sent us that teddy1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDcOxin4mT
bear."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kIbgk93BU

"But why are you so concerned about it? It's just a teddy bear."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ug56zIiw1

"Ya, sent by Derrick's evil brother. That has to count for something, right?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERAF6wswYd

"I don't get it though."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsM9CpsRPv3
Lee shook her head as she stared at the toys on display. "Why are you 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrzs43YMBl
so concerned about that small teddy?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrdyJ4VTfp

"That small teddy might hold the one thing we are looking for."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ADDDcabd0

***1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEHAbTogY6

Zoey's P.O.V1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCzcPRiHyd

"I'm tired of hearing the same thing over and over again," I said as I rubbed my forehead in frustration.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHeSISF9f6

"You know I'm not going to quit, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me with a stern look.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGiALVgNcg

"Look, this has hurt and disturbed me a lot. And when I need someone to talk to, you're not supporting me at all."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkb7jcgfpn6

"Because I know you're wrong. And you're treating Sam so unfairly."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHY0JUVVmAD

"How am I treating her unfairly?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbePNFScoc8

"You moved out of the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrzwfBDbf4
room, taking some of your belongings with you. I know you're upset with 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk25Tdwf9hH
Sam, but doing that was not right. You're acting as if she is some kind 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtydsJsPafP
of alien or something."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzv0yCK9Lbc

I tilted my head to the side. "Well, if you put it that way, calling her an alien isn't that bad."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fiPo6YqQB

In a quick flash, a 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOm2hvU0fj
pillow landed on the side of my face with so much force, that I fell to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpyXcIGVKM
the side on the bed. I quickly sat up and held my cheek.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt83V8wYK7n

"Christine!" I exclaimed. I was shocked that she did that.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNU0rFy5sKE

"Do you want more of 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8tJ18M8Nr
this pillow or should I get a hammer instead?" Christine asked 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSwevHPdF6
threateningly as she held up her pillow, ready to strike at me again.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLclBuvvMl

"Never mind. I shouldn't have said that."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhgMv7uS6P

"You got that right." 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03Un9fo3up
Christine put the pillow away. "I know Sam hurt you a lot, but you won't1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNQQZ7BaZQ
ignore her like you're doing forever."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCU2Ko9Qj2W

"Don't worry, forever will be here any moment now." I said ironically as I looked at the door.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOL9K9DXNza

"You know that sooner or later you will need her. And besides, she is always going to be around whether you like it or not."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6SaeYnA3P

"Ya. You don't have to remind me since we're all in a group together."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNUetfPYfG

Christine carefully looked at me and stood up from the bed, walking towards the window.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1V3lMNpweu

"It's normal for someone1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISNaeGmQqU
to get hurt by the ones they love and you aren't the first nor the last1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd56T1bTFlL
to experience such, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me. "You 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSVxl9JYkZ
just need time to heal. You'll be back to your normal self and later on,1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHkD1io5Ki
you will be laughing at all this with Sam. One thing's for sure, you 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNxUxdmITp
and Sam are best friends. And nothing will ever change that."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEZEBTEDrA

I always hated such kind1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uhGkgOidn
of talk. And coming from Christine, it just made me want to cry. Which I1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkXNCv9AcT
didn't want to do. So what if I was still mad at Sam? I knew for a fact1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmjEdqlJHS
that I wasn't going to ignore Sam for long. And as much as I wanted to,1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2Ff2Tc9ZJ
I couldn't live without Sam. She's been my best friend for as long as I1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10qfnqPrBA
could remember and I'm used with her being around. Without her, I'm 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqq6usW1l45
nothing.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Bc68nuQ0f

I've never told anyone 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0uJpxZ0vT
this before, but I've always considered Sam as my better half. Not in a 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EhEum2tpy
couple kind of thing (which is kind of gross by the way), but more like a1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1USwsq9I2
sister kind of thing. I am one person who is always prone to getting 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCdxhQBmTX
into trouble and Sam has always been the one to get me out of it. If it 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3a1MjkinV
wasn't for Sam, I would have been a high school drop out or worse. I 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJQvGAJATG
also wouldn't find myself as a famous singer in a pop group right now.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq652Mjhc1b

I am Yin and she is 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIRq3gSwOz
Yang, balancing my life and hers. But mostly mine. I fell we are the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPM38FnAcUf
perfect harmony when we are together even though I am not as perfect as 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4d1wdwCzW
she is. Maybe that's why I consider myself as Yin, the dark side and Sam1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBgLWVhs9u
the bright side. You see what I mean, right?1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fSlEFPXXx

And now when I needed 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeo7qjWdKHL
her the most, I was stuck with no one to turn to. I couldn't open up to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYOeUqqcb7
her now and tell her what's going on in my life. I've gotten myself into1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrrkxdEadS
big trouble this time around and there was no way of turning back or 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UxfgS1UkZ
getting anyone involved to help. Not when you know you're involved in a 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuyamNxBpR
serious situation with a very dangerous person.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJYSsdsFET

It all begun when I went1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PtIVDvNfr
to Paris with G-Dragon, TOP and the other Toxins, excluding Sam. How I 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGq048NVEY
wish she had come along with me that day. Maybe I wasn't going to be in 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMNTEWOgK3
this mess.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDV4Q9VqKsG

We were having so much 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6e3CW9eGu
fun that night. We went for the Chanel fashion show as planned and it 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjJjkmpUfd
was fun looking at the latest fashion being worn and showcased on the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsH1dpHKgxF
runway. At that time I felt on top of the world with what had happened 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvtqajhDQL
between G-Dragon and I at the Eiffle Tower. And I was so happy and 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquRqp50zs2
pretty much oblivious that nothing could ever go wrong. But sadly, 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWY7xuMfHf4
things did go wrong.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcf9bvR8hz

As we were watching the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6L62jXeKz
models, I was seated next to someone whom I hadn't really took notice 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyyxkNFpnE
for a while since the fashion show started until he turned to look at me1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuC6x62V6t
and said hi. He introduced himself as Jehan. He told me he was French.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawCVoUNbeO

When I looked at him, he1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuMrcdY7US
seemed like a really nice guy. He was also very handsome. He recognised1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGMhZLuUZF
me as one of the Toxins and said he was a huge fan. We talked for a 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlB8mdF73bt
while during the show and for a moment there, we seemed to be getting 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLEpDdUPud
along just fine. I also introduced him to the others. It was after the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYiQkLoPVG
fashion show that I realised I was dead wrong about him.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVk1yhaSiY

After the show when 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1HIRg6Qh1
everyone was busy finding themselves among groups and indulging into 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8waTuhQhZ1
some random conversation, Jehan, said that he wanted to talk to me in 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5a6hPMzWC
private. I didn't like the idea of leaving the others while I went out 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujJ4duMyw3
with someone I barely even knew. But he did say it was only going to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ604jWxwo0J
take a few minutes.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4Vl39m9rg

I didn't find anything 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiicosrtHS
wrong with it and I agreed to go out with him for a while. Besides, I 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJQoBSG5LH
was getting too much attention and going out looked like a good idea at 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUoVcwt5Lq
the time. Without telling G-Dragon who was with TOP and the others 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLDn19aznY
talking to some famous fashion designers, I knew they wouldn't miss me 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HHpsj4PKr
too much.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7bfZBL7z7

Jehan led the way out 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcPM3n2EUk
and we found ourselves outside. It was lovely and the night was cool as 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cG1POG5gX
we took a walk around a small garden outside the building. There were a 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYd5vYZtKkB
few people outside, some near the fountain. At least there was an 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Mjo5znHGk
assurance that if anything were to go wrong, there were witnesses. With 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SeLbvcADq
that I felt a little safe.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJTFRSnTQs

The two of us soon found1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6smjbXNAJs
ourselves indulged in some conversation. Before I knew it, we were all 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECBk0lqEgz
alone in the garden and that's when Jehan took the opportunity to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHH4WEeFFb
threaten me. It was something I hadn't told anyone about because what 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJwnIlmB1w
happened frightened me. And coming from a person like Jehan, you could 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3l6YfUjE6K
doubt that such a guy like him would ever do such a thing. Yet alone on a1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsJwTQ2kU7
lady. He said if I didn't do whatever he said, he wouldn't hesitate to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dRc2NT1jO
hunt me down and kill me. I believed his threats because he was pointing1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINokt3VdPC
a gun at me and his face went from sweet and kind to dangerous and 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEINTbFviQ
menacing.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbUHq55fMl

He gave me something for1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbafR4LQ1AM
me to keep safe and not to let anyone know about it. He said he would 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlRdUBf2Ej
follow me to Korea and get it. He was the same person I had met at the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO35itDWrJ4
café and when I gave him the item back, he said there was more that had 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSRLt0iaLr
to be done. When I asked what he meant, he didn't say anything. All he 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWSe1HuuHk
said was that something was going to be sent to me back at the hotel in 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3oyEEZUbx
the name of The Toxins. That's how the teddy bear came in.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjdaiPWJT8

Whatever he sent me that1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRzzxkmUpK
teddy bear for, I have no idea. And when I talked to him about what I 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kiYCm8Lev
should do with it yesterday, he said he would meet with me and give me 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRx5Fhr88m
further instructions. And I couldn't meet up with him because of what 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5f7RanZtSF
happened yesterday.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DW9UB06c1

I had never been in this1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXljOojJ9w
situation before and all I wanted was for all this to be over. But how?1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKVH5S3HBe
Unless I come up with a plan, I was going to be threatened for the rest1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazn0xeYqGM
of my life and that's how I didn't want my life to be. I'm Zoey for 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGMAZDhwZi
crying out loud. I had to do something.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxN5P6KC9rE

My phone rang bringing 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gHJVRRTbW
me back from my thoughts. Christine who was looking out the window, 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOI9c8c4flN
turned to look at me. I went to looking at the phone laying right beside1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikMCpNrsgo
me. When I saw that Jehan was calling, I froze.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTtulCQz5V

"Aren't you going to answer that?" Christine asked, as I delayed to pick up the call.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRu6nGmVZM0

"I...uh, ya, I will," I said as I picked up the phone and answered the call. I could already feel myself starting to sweat.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbdCysL5zT

"Hello?" I answered. I almost gave out a croak when I spoke.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60MGazD98c

"Nice to hear that you're still answering my calls. Shows that you're cooperating."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7q7W1uEuTd

I would have told him to1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjBshKB29Q
mind his own beeswax but I couldn't with Christine in the room staring 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADUbm0fS0p
at me like an eagle. Was she observing me? I couldn't tell.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDXhz02YYf

"I'm great and you?" I said over the phone with a smile. Christine ignored me and went back to looking at the window.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI48YPJlq48

"Looks like you aren't 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4opjNedQ4O
alone," said Jehan. I could hear in his voice that he wanted to chuckle.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgR0WZ8vOCe
"You wouldn't have answered so nicely like you rarely do."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwgIDkwoTI

"May I help you with anything?" I asked as nicely as I could. He was already getting on my nerves.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxP0fgaOuJk

"Relax, my little tigress. I could tell I'm getting on your nerves and that won't be good for you now, would it?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yAYQRuVB7

"Just get to the point, 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTbagyxEhC
will you?" I snapped, losing my cool. Christine turned to look at me. I 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhWVdnfWjD
smiled as best as I could that I was afraid my face would tear.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRKpJDZOW1

"I want us to meet, today," said Jehan. There was a touch of coldness to his voice and that sent chills down my spine.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqX0b6ZSXU

"Today? Are you serious?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87wydkaZf7

"You know that I am. We meet today."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkd1ti2w7c

"But where?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDQOgMa7yI

"At the mall."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpi9XqjFtE

For a moment I almost 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mIE1kgRjX
burst out laughing, but I held my mouth. I wondered why he would want to1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGld7DCrAoU
meet me at the mall. I was expecting the café again or some fancy 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEFJyuor5c
restaurant. To me, he didn't strike me as one person who would want to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOXZgxO5h3
hang out at the mall. That's what made it seem so funny to me.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6vBv2QTPU

"What's so funny?" Jehan1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfnkZvnU0D
asked sternly. He knew I was almost about to burst out laughing. The 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVsbDdU2eT
tone of his voice almost did the trick but I still took a hold of 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNiz0mvC7y
myself.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRZ32BWyYy

"Nothing, I wanted to sneeze but held it. That's all."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2k8qPyZakV

"You better be telling the truth or else I will blow your brains out."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lfzqX42dW

If he thought saying 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRazNTitOxz
that would get me scared, it didn't. I pulled the phone far away from me1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCCCd0H25E
and laughed quietly. Then I put the phone back to my ear.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtI6xWoVkT

"I don't think I would be able to meet you," I said, choosing my words carefully in front of Christine.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmM5nbGAULL

"I don't care. You're meeting with me whether you like it or not."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtO9m43jsfo

"Mmm. Even if I wanted to, I don't know how I'm going to get there."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNvgvcJPbS

"A car will be waiting to take you within fifteen minutes. You better get ready. And don't forget the teddy."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowRCCVpzxj

"Ya, sure."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGio9K1soB

Jehan didn't say 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGlX9v3PJ8
anything more and cut the call. He was so rude. Bossing me around just 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11VVJAuNit
because he could do whatever he wants with a gun pointed to my head. 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkXVFKL2Q1
Typical.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXHlGUzrle

"Who was that?" Christine asked, looking at me.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yESpufcgv

"Oh, it was Seungri," I lied. "He wanted to see if I was free right now so that the two of us could hang out."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVwuDBH7cp

"Seriously?" Christine looked surprised. "Why would Seungri call you just to hang out?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6THN7M4UmX

"Well, he wanted to talk to me about Sam. That's all."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYW7pBlvEaj

"And you didn't refuse?" Christine had her arms folded and looking at me with doubt.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvxHPs7Ux6

"Why? You think I would?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh59ubGSNbD

"Ya. The Zoey I know would refuse."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYgU7Lw3Y3

"He's just taking me to some fancy place. I couldn't refuse."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdGwaLRXek

"Ya, you always like the fancy stuff." Christine rolled her eyes as she looked up at the ceiling.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLZTT9zJ54

"Whatever happened to that teddy bear?" I asked, changing the topic.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxlsu03e1j

"You mean the teddy bear you hate so much?" Christine came closer and sat down on the other side of her bed.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eaMB0Uslu

"That one. Where is it?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHLKVNa1AD

"Why are you even asking?" Christine shrugged her shoulders.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNrEMgnJ2y

"I just want to ask if it's still around. That's all. I hadn't seen it ever since we went bowling that other day."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0X56zOohY8

Christine looked over at Lee's bed across from her's.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbbAKitQri

"I saw it on the bed yesterday. I don't know where she could have put it."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3Ry2pm9gf

"Oh. Okay," I said, as I stood up with my eyes surveying Lee's bed. "I better get ready to meet Seungri, then."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSiAa7QUw5

"Alright," said Christine as she also stood up. "I need to use the bathroom."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23O290t8pd

Christine went past me to the bathroom and closed the door behind her, locking it.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2KErQYJkZ

I quietly went over to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43lQv4oJ7p
Lee's bed. Her bed was well spread and pillows well placed. I couldn't 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuo8tBUDeH
see the teddy anywhere. I had to act fast or else Christine will be back1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEo2MGsKmYw
soon.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4ubo4HOFP

I came to the drawer 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLYWnQBmye
next to the bed and checked them, being careful enough not to make a 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGB8b0gJtd
sound. Nothing. I almost started to panic. Where was the teddy?1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsbltSGPTC

I looked at her bed and 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIX7rs7Vos
decided to check under the pillows. When I lifted one of them, there 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeiaXRogRg
laid the teddy bear still in his tiny suit.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGwh5clSrR

"There you are," I said softly as I took the teddy. "I think it's now time for you to leave once and for all."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhTG8vbHHL

I heard the tap in the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezXBqbKpxz
bathroom running. Christine was bound to be back in the room any second 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9DsuCSoPO
now. I quickly put the pillow back neatly and then tiptoed quickly out 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZh749DkBwy
of the room with the teddy in my other hand. When I reached the door, I 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPc6NWNOTOW
quietly opened it and closed it behind me.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYTr1qRBZy

***1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9vItDwjgZ

Sam's P.O.V1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyv6rgHLms

"Do you really think 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzu4Ycqz83
that teddy carries something that will help us figure out what's going 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFTIs8pC8m
on?" Lee asked as she took a sip of her smoothie, looking at me.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjBlyHtJVR

"Definitely," I said as I got a french fry, dipped it in sauce and put it in my mouth.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2E9ezce4I

"Okay, so far, Derrick has described his brother as a very dangerous guy. Is he some sort of criminal or something?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfP3cyplKmF

"For him to threaten Zoey, he must be. But if he really is a criminal, then what sort of crime does he do?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVRSW2sCSY

"I hope it's not drugs."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgYn4fOU65

"I hope not too." I shook my head at that terrible thought.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2rFFj5awF

"What of gun trafficking?" Lee asked as she held her smoothie cup in midair.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB84u1ONmB1

"No way." I asked as I drank from my smoothie.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTT1HooFjrE

"So, what should we do with that teddy bear?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0Ss0Z6rzG

"Keep it away from her. Whatever that thing has, we have to know before she takes it away."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gSDzKM5g9

"I wonder why she never kept it for herself. I mean, if she is being threatened, her life will depend on that teddy, right?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrexYp21YH

"True." I nodded my head. "I bet she pretended to hate the teddy so that we don't get suspicious of anything."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6S0tmF0reC

"She did a pretty good job on that one."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7I85G0y3No

"Ya. But she was overreacting. Who could reject such a cute teddy bear like that one?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTMK7gkkpH

"Zoey."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkw0VmfCTMv

"Haha. Ya. I heard Zoey 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgI4bI8JFQ
talking to Derrick's brother. They were supposed to meet yesterday but 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrz1Kch825
they couldn't because of our little fight."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVGPggoYEU

"Mmm." Lee took a fry 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCcDJ6Z6xV
and dipped it in sauce as she looked deep in thought. "Don't you think 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcSq2wfR2n
the two would try to meet today, no matter what?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPlRsallqU

I raised an eyebrow at 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6rMM3Gv47
her. Come to think of it, I was supposed to be keeping an eye on Zoey. 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTi5ugNhIXI
But here I was, eating fries. I completely forgot.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliaViXQQoP

"Shoot!" I said loudly 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Rqs8MXmFM
as I leaned my head back with my eyes closed. I bet everyone around me 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8XECscPPK
was wondering what was wrong with me since I was so loud. I hit my head 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJeNSZX97s
with my hand. "You're so right, Lee."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElo3X0LRXT

"About what?" Lee asked.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfJmdtr9lL

"About Zoey meeting him today. I should have been more aware."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjYh237uo0

"But do you think they would? I was just suggesting."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUY4AuqHJBM

"But today might be the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHqWptKzmN
perfect time for them to meet. We are here, the boys are busy playing 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNHGs75o3a
video games and Zoey might find a way to dodge Christine to go out."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZE1rDaU1c

"Hopefully not. If she is going to meet him today, then she might take the teddy with her."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5h7LF8hvr

My heart rate quickened 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6SPSHGIvh
at the thought of Zoey meeting Derrick's brother. I was scared. What if 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeZvvgKXAW
she sees him today and things don't go well this time around?1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEroxVm5OO

"If I were you, I would give Zoey a call," said Lee. She obviously saw the worried look on my face.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DZVi6MUCN

"No, you do it," I said shaking my head. "She isn't going to answer my call."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4O0HQp5GK

"Oh, yeah," said Lee as she took out her phone from her handbag and called Zoey.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtdZZKqfFM

"She isn't picking up," said Lee as she looked at her phone. "She must have switched her phone off."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayMNpuvyMN

"She must have gone to see him. Call Christine and ask about Zoey."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0WfFO0ZxJ

Lee went back to her phone and immediately called Christine. Christine picked up immediately.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtm7tPyWyGq

"Hey, Christine," said Lee as she looked over at me and I watched her intently. "I wanted to ask if Zoey is with you."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXk55dNGBco

There was a pause as Lee listened to Christine over the phone. Lee's face changed completely.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblodK1WQ4D

"Alright, thanks, 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHXYhvxLZK
Christine," said Lee as she cut the call and looked at me. "Zoey had 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfCsHpCKif
left the hotel a few minutes ago. Christine says she went out with 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9PYqtEWQN
Seungri."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzYfaF0h4O

I raised an eyebrow. "Seungri? Why would Seungri meet with Zoey? I bet she lied."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtP537OHzA

"Of course she did. She has obviously gone to meet with this guy."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmS4uhoKLs

"Did Christine say where she had gone?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1STY71UFi2

"No. Zoey wasn't specific. All Christine said was that she and Seungri were going to some fancy place."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡev2n92Td0C

I suddenly decided to get my phone from my purse and called Seungri. He answered the call immediately.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFoLbsCTj0

"Hey, BK," he said so enthusiastically over the phone. "How are you?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkxe70WbPu

"I'm fine, Seungri, thanks," I said, immediately jumping to the point. "Where are you?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBS0aOeuVR

"I'm in my car heading to GD's. Is there anything I could do for you?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHO9pNThPs

"Uh, no, nothing. Was just asking. Are you alone?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZbrY1gfSN

"Yes, I am." I could 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCh9EeA0aDh
already imagine a smile on his face and I had to get ready for a 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3hpva7UmZ
ridiculous question to follow. "Why? You think I'm with someone? A woman1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1f9soEyVlH
perhaps?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEhCQfr0bM

I rolled my eyes and as 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkuj0TzxYK
much as I wanted to remain stoic and not laugh, I did. I quickly tried 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe37lQWaxFE
to cover it up, but Seungri also heard it and chuckled. Lee looked at me1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVB31FkT5K9
with an eyebrow raised as I laughed out loud this time around.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2V23BD0kM

"What makes you think that?" I asked after recovering from my laugh.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYEsJ9dmGx

"For you to call, I'm guessing you must have been thinking of me and tried to see what I'm up to."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxOso3ZsDS

I bit my lower lip and 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfd2RJ1lu5c
shook my head. If only he knew why I called. But I had to admit, he was 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DUuokT8nB
really making me laugh even when I didn't want to.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCX87jeDk3N

"It's really nothing, Seungri. I just wanted to say hi."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjEa5OBwwW

"Well, if you say so." I knew he wasn't buying it. "Where are you?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepfuNXRYDQ

"I'm at the mall with Lee."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4i567Khvt

"Okay, you have fun now. You will need it."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkIY5DkYAT

"Bye."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPu9uHdECvb

"Bye, my little kitty."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53DDlF0UNe

"Well, that was some conversation," said Lee as I put my phone away.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKejKMp3Ciz

"Ya, it was," I said still with a smile on my face.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxbN41hkPT

"So, he isn't with Zoey?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8soR8BTMeu

"Nope. And he isn't 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4qPnulEWt
going to some fancy place either." I paused as the smile on my face 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvjpIpfOuY
disappeared. "He's gone to see G-Dragon."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiNHzTR7fs

"Oh." Lee took her smoothie and sucked on the straw. "Umm, what are we going to do now? We have to know where Zoey is."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wqjPoxghE

"You're right," I said. "But where can we even start to look? This time, I'm blank."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDFUJoy3qK

"Maybe they are going to meet at the café again."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECZhjNEI47

I shook my head. "I highly doubt it. Even if we were to guess where they could meet, it would probably be too late."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0jayIxoQR

Lee sighed as she folded her arms. "Well, this has turned out to be such a bust."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzh65Pv8pC

"Tell me about it." I 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIsoBb7AGE
put my elbows on the table and held my head in my hands. "I shouldn't 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVsy6lCufE
have allowed this to happen. I shouldn't have been so absent minded."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZW901UvQKk

"Don't beat yourself up, Sam," said Lee. "Maybe it's time we told Zoey what we already know."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINDxXkjJH0

I nodded. We were now caught in a dead end and maybe it was time we involved the others too.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfXnOWe8DW

After we were done with 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKluxIk2A6i
lunch, we paid for the meal, carried our shopping bags with us and with 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIOhncJTV7
our body guards following behind, we headed out of the mall.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZv3ZgYKdP

As soon as we walked out1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCs6h8NLgG
through the main entrance, a fancy looking red Ferrari was parked right1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvsk1AU6Yi
in front of us in the parking lot. Just as we were about to bypass the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvzBa4us1O
car, the door to the driver's seat flew open and a man in a fancy 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdIKFHDiSq
looking black suit stepped out.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41YZOHzJRZ

Time seemed to have 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HXqKZemeq
stopped when I looked at the man from the corner of my eye. He was tall 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSy2y8gIKV
and handsome with a strong jaw and black shiny hair which was combed 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVbsquV4XV
back. He had a pair of sunglasses on and I couldn't help but feel 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0HZLivP0v
something familiar about him.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8QWLBE3aC

Just as I was about to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3vlY66yS5
focus ahead, the man removed his shades and I fully turned to look at 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuKr5c92UB
him. My mouth almost dropped and I couldn't believe what I was seeing.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncOmY7XihC

I almost tripped and 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwoTl1RiGE
fell over on the road but I was quick to gather myself. Lee looked at me1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVEpB2eWUz
with concern because even the guards almost came to my rescue to stop 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4VspIAJvN
me from falling.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rqTYVig4H

"Are you okay, Sam?" Lee asked as she looked at me. "You almost fell."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpsh4kT3gy

I didn't say a word as I1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjcO8eB9H6
looked behind me where the Ferrari was packed and I noticed the man go 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvB3uYUji7b
inside the mall. I turned to look at Lee.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9s8biUicp

"We need to go back, Lee," I said.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNmI3K2dZL

"But why? You're scaring me Sam. It's look like you have seen a ghost."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTx1NJEirZ

"Trust me, Lee. We need to go back. We have to put these bags away first."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXL0Dzverq

"May I please know what's going on with you?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfId2C3F0c

"I know where Zoey and Derrick's brother are going to meet. They will be meeting here. At the mall."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTmML6fVq3

Narrator's P.O.V1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRClz4YGMAY

Seungri came into G-Dragon's apartment and found TOP, Taeyang and G-Dragon, who was still in his pyjamas, in the living room.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgwg5ewN2m

"Hey guys, am here," 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjy2VPLw5px
annouced Seungri as he sat down on the couch next to Taeyang. "You guys 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEcrLoM4AB
look downcast as though someone's just died."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0jqZoEK43

"Ji Yong still doesn't want to talk things out with Sam," said TOP.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeYDDll1y3

"This is getting real 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHUqHE4Jnc
frustrating, guys," said G-Dragon who was hugging a couch pillow close 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAX5kHtfYr
to him and looking down on the floor. "Now isn't the time to talk with 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07Twz77JK1
her or with anyone of you."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9G3vwDQar

"No, I think now is the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9LCZ0wZ8P
time to solve things with her," said Taeyang. "We will be working on the1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6GBHsgexJ
music video soon and we can't do this if you two aren't on good terms."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sGb5qjOu1

"And let's not forget, Zoey," said Seungri.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8z9Y6ZSLjV

"Zoey is a whole lot tougher to talk to," said G-Dragon. "I already did my part and told her the truth."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEMP4qlGMT

"Well, you shouldn't have led her on if you knew you had feelings for Sam," said Taeyang.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9l6vLS82VI

"Let's not forget, Daesung also has feelings for her," said TOP.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1pWNCx3LY

"And me," said Seungri with a corky smile on his face.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoH5Amr51h

"Oh, stop joking around, Seungri," said G-Dragon, with a frown on his face.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tUgms8KXK

"For real," said Seungri raising his hands in the air admitting to the truth. "I also like Sam."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMMmk40WYc

The others rolled their 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVVevuuX3r
eyes at Seungri, obviously not taking him seriously. He usually jokes 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguzepQUDff
around and now wasn't the time for it.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1l8SDDKoN6

"Look, I know leading Zoey on was a big mistake, but I'm more angry at Sam than at myself," said G-Dragon.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKU9M9LuyC

"Why? Because Sam and Daesung kissed?" Seungri asked with an eyebrow raised.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuwwkPZGt7

G-Dragon didn't answer immediately. He looked like he was about to jump at Seungri and tear him apart.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZd4UrsQLS0

"Well, maybe," said 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRWdJlXW0i
G-Dragon. "The thing is, the day Zoey went missing, she and I had a talk1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0ukxg2jgn
in the park about the same thing. She figured out that I liked her so 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMfqfwqxQE
she told me to break things up with Zoey."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5SijC3gna

"And why didn't you do that sooner?" TOP asked.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFn1T1MsP0R

"When I saw Daesung and 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeKcIGug6r
Sam so close the next day, I couldn't help it. I had a feeling they 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSpDDh8q5R
kissed though I didn't see it for myself. That's what made me so mad."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MZnYgikQh

"And you still are," said Taeyang.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfda1smK5di

G-Dragon didn't answer 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguoLxFM1hL
as he looked down at his fingers, looking as if he was ready to bite 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EYrGL2dmn
them out of anger. "Yes," he replied slowly.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yUYJhiWyh

"Oh, I get it now," said Seungri, as he looked up at the ceiling. "But I see no reason why Sam could be in the wrong here."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPWRLfAowZ

"What do you mean?" 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVwskdOHBX
G-Dragon asked as he looked up at Seungri. "Sam didn't tell me anything 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsTh26FAok
about Daesung and yet she told me not be with Zoey anymore."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIXyRM9uqT

"She was just doing that1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibhNH4n9jE
to protect Zoey because she figured out that you like her instead of 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakiTzhgdhd
her best friend," said Taeyang. "And besides, we all heard your little 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQt2Q95zLa
argument. She and Daesung also talked and also agreed that they cannot 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlWUOkQmuI
be together."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYSXgHpLjl

"I still don't believe all that," said G-Dragon.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ356IMhwkkF

"You better believe it, Ji Yong," came Daesung's voice by the door. "Sam never meant to hurt anyone. Not even you."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWXefdGBnB

All the four BigBang 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPAGbCfvtO
members in the living area, turned towards the door. Daesung stood there1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkNg04XiTe
looking at them. The others were a little surprised that they hadn't 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx91DLJHjQr
heard him come in.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4ETwb64SZ

"It's good you're here," said Seungri. "You also have a lot of explaining to do."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYrS9lk758

"No, he doesn't," said G-Dragon.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3wZe2G14m

"Yes, I do," said Daesung. "All this has to be cleared up once and for all."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTL1J4aSU1p

"True," said TOP. G-Dragon who sat beside him gave him an angry stare. TOP shrugged. "What?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafpaHcprcP

"I'm not going to stay 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmt7Ea7S73g
here and listen to this," said G-Dragon as he stood up from the couch. 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkyR5rktgS
"If you need me, I'll be in my room."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VjiRJU3Hv

"No wait, you have to hear me out," said Daesung.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPU3aYNmg7

"No, I don't."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeAuPgvFKL

Before G-Dragon could 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWXjHPQS6J
take a step in the direction of his room, TOP held his arm and pulled 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxHh45e1RB
him down. G-Dragon sat right back on the couch.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9XZTYQAfz

"You aren't going anyway," said TOP.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpevS6p14JC

"Come on, man, seriously!" G-Dragon complained.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0FgNQHUlv

"Let's hear what Daesung has to say, alright?" Taeyang suggested.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkmELgnACI

G-Dragon folded his arms1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDNGh6wbGC
and looked at the others like an angry child who was told to do 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ253klewgFa
something that he didn't want to do. He finally rolled his eyes and 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1dpCPCNAJ
stared at the ceiling.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAOA78OTWF

"Fine," he said. Then he looked at Daesung. "Go ahead."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vJPzylDPa

Daesung came into the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHiIfSmd3Y
living area and didn't take a seat. He stood there in front of the TV 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpf1hwsl6AX
for everyone to get his attention. His eyes locked with G-Dragon's.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68koDD9DMB

"Look, I know you're 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrM0PRtkcik
probably mad and want to kill me right now," started Daesung. "But first1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCt3J63Jo43
thing's first, I had no idea that you had something for Sam and she 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRLYI3w6wP
never told me anything either."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66ugKKapxs

"Do you really like her?" G-Dragon asked, looking at Daesung with so much intent.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhIKZkIeTG

"Yes, I won't deny it. I thought she and I might make our relationship work, but she didn't think that way."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZegqSMvnk

"Why?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YieDZftQG

"She just felt like it 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81378o3PAW
wasn't going to work. That's what she told me. She wasn't going to stay 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cNA1wfIoL
here for long. And judging by that, she doesn't look like one who thinks1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnECwYF4vIX
long distance relationships will ever work out."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1fIl40wNr

"Then, why did you kiss her?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eFldMtKzK

"Because I know I'll 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweXa8lb24H
never get a chance to do so. Sam is a great person and calling her great1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHzPI8j1xc
is an understatement because she is way beyond that. And I see 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODKh69vcjb
something in her that I've never seen in any other girl before. I could 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwjL93M0WJ
tell you also see it in her too. She is also one person who wouldn't 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uYyWZG20I
want to hurt anyone either.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWDudN0Ug1

"Maybe that's why she 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRvPNOqKAv
didn't want anything to do with me either because she knew you would 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDmy7UN7nJ
also get hurt. But unfortunately, you already had a hunch about our kiss1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZssRsf5WF
and I could see that it really hurt you a lot."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZH33o8rL9

"Ya, it did," said G-Dragon as he looked somewhere else, his mind on Sam.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGaxC16tXy

"Now, are you going to talk to her?" Daesung asked.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfARm0Cwmi

"What?" G-Dragon turned to look back at Daesung with a confused look on his face.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3t0HGDPIi

"Aren't you going to talk to Sam?" Daesung asked again. "All this wasn't entirely her fault."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgM2yBfgowA

"I know."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkZKK8rwkw

"So, you will talk to her, then?" TOP asked.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEEqNKO8iA

"I'll think about it."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkpCQuZf6q

"No, no, no!" Seungri 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfmXuisjeK
waved his finger at G-Dragon. "That's it! You're always stubborn and you1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEyImwj97j
want things to be done your way. Go and take a shower. We're going to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0B1M5Oodmp
the mall."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNJ00Yt4Zz

Everyone turned to look at Seungri and wondered if he had hit his head or something.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXcoAQRUIZ

"Huh?" Taeyang shook his head, trying to understand if he had heard right. "Did you just say the mall?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoj2bdWyJzA

"Ya," said Seungri, 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Z3BxnlWhh
shaking his head. "We're going to the mall. Sam is there and I think 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHw9XktwU2B
this will be a good time for the two of them to talk."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuD1WqsWTt

"No way! I'm not going to the mall," said G-Dragon. "What am I going to say? I need more time to think about it."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3hoZSPiFF

"There is no time to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIPBu7ojr8
think about it," said TOP. "I'm not going to allow you to keep on doing 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGjDfwzmCo
this to Sam. It's not right at all."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhxjG90Vxc

"It's best you go, GD," said Daesung. "And we are all going with you so that you have no reason to escape."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5vOaPOxR8

"No way," said G-Dragon. "You will have to force me into the shower if I'm leaving for the mall."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNpEYYGuTU

"We're your best 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHvUiKsQvJ
friends, so, no hard feelings," said Taeyang with a smirk on his face. 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEd553TLsr
He addressed the others, "guys, let's take him to the shower."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoN5hXMsUH2

"Wait! What!" G-Dragon looked horrified as the others came and quickly surrounded him. And there was no way of trying to escape.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVKdzCaYCo

Zoey's P.O.V1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvzKiDMHW7

I came out of the black 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYrKQiuOiR
Mercedes as it stopped directly in front of the mall. I quickly put my 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjqyxipjCS
shades on as I walked towards the entrance and I heard screams behind 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcnP5ImCA0
me. I smiled at the reaction and turned around to see a group of young 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEmNtRbjBF
teenagers, obviously having a fun time at the mall, giggling and waving 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioWQKgZAne
at me. I smiled and waved back and they screamed even more. I continued 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVrsH3wO4t
on my way into the mall, always liking the feeling of being recognized 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxTQZChG7N
by my fans.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQD4af6r0x

I pulled out my phone from my purse as I went on the escalator and called Jehan.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZ9AQvpFGe

"I'm guessing you're already here," said Jehan as he picked up the call.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCycYlqVibF

"Yes. Where are you?" I asked.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvBBojxf2P

"I'm at the Rolex store. Just go up the escalator and keep on moving forward. You'll find the store to your right."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbU1LmMmN9d

"Okay."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKShv2fKsUc

"Did you bring what I asked for?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eJIBYHHQa

I sighed in irritation. "I'm not that dumb not to bring it."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SGIN4A9L3

"I was just asking. As much as you are blonde, I know you're good enough to blackmail me over the teddy bear."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97d0TQDdpW

instructed. "And for the record, I'm not blonde. I'm actually a whole 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlG7zeeWg8y
lot smarter than you think."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGfTWpRD8m

"Just get over here," said Jehan, also sounding irritated and cutting the call.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszJFh1rtQE

"Mr Grumpy is such a 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpH2oDjJrF3
pain in the butt," I muttered as I put my phone away and looked around 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexXqKBLes2
for the Rolex store. It didn't take too long to find it.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYuk6dSWUG

When I went into the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSHHxLKKUa
fancy looking store showcasing fancy looking watches, I found Jehan by 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJaw6DmhVx
the counter, looking down at watches through the glass case.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHznUjG7x8

I stood right beside him and looked down at the watches.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JV0qcPh6t

"If I were you, I would go for that one," I said as I pointed at one of the watches.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAoeNNQ216

"I don't need your opinion with anything, Zoey," said Jehan, his emerald green eyes looking at me.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ459RZmNPTF

I shivered. Despite his 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwAVymTU6I
good looks, he had a stare in his eyes that could make you drop dead in 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtGiCABrox
seconds. I wondered why such a handsome man like him, could be so hard 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizl7ewNyWf
to the core. As much as it was scary, he gave me butterflies in my 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcp8I4A11Z
stomach. Which to me is totally creepy.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBiTgx1Klt

"Now, that you're here," said Jehan, as he turned to fully look at me. "I can now get what I want."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulibNL1EXR

"May I ask why you sent this teddy bear to me?" I asked.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LaEWtDYwx

"Why do you need to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLmKVYulGd
know?" Jehan asked as he stepped closer. He was too close that I could 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWt8aZwaeI5
feel his breath on me. I almost trembled by his close presence.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxlpENlNgf

"Well, I need to know 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPZq7THfBt
what you're up to, don't you think?" I asked, standing my ground. Him 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RV4ZKFcvC
being so close to me almost made my legs turn to jelly.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtrZASmKyv

"And tell me, why should1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiwxdD2tLR
I tell you?" He leaned in closer. This time he spoke so softly that my 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajdyO1grG9
heart fluttered. With that deep husky voice of his and his French 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpmF16GM2M
accent, I was completely drawn to him. And not to mention his musky 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK061uvQRD0
cologne, yum. It was just delicious.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwpqTCADBJ

"I...eh..." I looked him1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7AiwHHZQx
in the eye and tried to focus but I couldn't. I cleared my throat. 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbamb3Tp6m
"It's not fair. First, I came with that box from Paris. And then you 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PqbkMdXZt
sent me a teddy which is highly unusual given that you don't look like 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvvI58YUCi
the kind who would send such a thing."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8p32IQtO1

"Oh, really?" Jehan 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDeZeFC3PB
raised his eyebrow at me. I had to admit, he looked kind of hot when he 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliHwpdGY3R
did so. "What makes you think I couldn't send such a cute teddy bear?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslqcPKm2Le

"I don't know." I 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ln9sE5cwL
shrugged my shoulders. "You just don't seem like the guy who would. And 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG663OQaSe6
it was kind of weird if you ask me. But answer my question. What are you1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8On97RYRa
up to?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGRKiwSx7E

Jehan gave me a smile that made me blush that I had to look down on the floor so that he wouldn't notice.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSd07qvVMvR

"Fine, I'll tell you," said Jehan. "Let's go and have a little something to eat, shall we? We can talk from there."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtH8Dhd4fO

"Whoa! Wait a minute," I said as I backed away from him, a little surprised. "You're willing to tell me?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hFcLNdUka

"What's the matter with that?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡih7a8XFPrI

"I thought you would be hard to convince given that you're so mean."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvP0Zlbuw5

"Don't test my patience,1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorvRDOyGPy
Zoey," said Jehan, his voice getting restless. "Just because I want to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMaKqwrzBm
tell you, doesn't mean you can take all this like a joke. Besides, I 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvA4LwgscPP
think you deserve to you know."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cfPYaSx5K

"Well, yes, I do."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBM1W3q4UrW

Jehan smirked. "Good. Follow me."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCTekkQsgR

***1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtUXpysQw9

Sam's P.O.V1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvwc4YNdwK

I could see Zoey from 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1GDliHmnm
across the hall at the Rolex store. I was looking at clothes right next 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0zW9KdNM4
to the huge window display so that I could have a clear view of Zoey and1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gOgYKLXNK
Derrick's brother. Lee was right behind me facing the opposite 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtfr266qU6
direction also pretending to be looking at clothes.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEM9h0SBeeh

I was entirely grateful 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVx77EJQszT
that the body guards had kept an eye out for Zoey when she came here to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5LkIMwDj1
the mall. They were the ones who told us that she had arrived and had 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1Oo35E5sy
followed her to the Rolex store. I was just glad that she hadn't noticed1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOOeU3ix0n
them. We were close by looking for Derrick's brother when the guards 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvFUdfyzkg
told us where Zoey was. We decided to go to the store opposite from 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuFCws4ydZ
where they were and keep an eye on them from now on.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDAvc87UMM

"The man is so handsome," said Lee as she looked out the window. "I still can't believe that he is a bad guy."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ONeH8WFS9

"Believe me, he is," I said as I looked at a nice beige top on a hanger and then took a brief glance out the window.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMOJ3zyMWd

"But how did you know 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSZSxN70B9
that's Derrick's brother? I mean, you haven't seen him before and that 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcKXwPaI2Y
photo you showed me never revealed his face."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKS4EtfCY1

"True. It's because he looks so much like Derrick."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLx5zj7CX6e

Lee turned to look at me with her mouth wide open. "For real! Do you mean, like twins?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYL1l1MlDu

"Well, ya," I said as I 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhMMkncZVs
looked at Derrick's brother who was standing so close to Zoey through 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflCkcjhfH5
the window. "Maybe they are twins. They look so much alike. Except, 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfN0tj43YOw
Derrick has blue eyes and short brown curly hair."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICAkYVpnw1

Lee turned to the window1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7ZrJDVwmH
and I could tell she was observing Derrick's brother. "If he looks like1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6Picgjuil
that, I can easily picture how Derrick looks like."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nDKiWA036

"He's handsome too. Looks like it runs in the family."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRanCFUVO8K

"Tell me about it. Too bad their mindsets are completely different."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccDhbOqkK2

"Derrick did say he and his brother are completely different that they don't easily get along."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdSOWr24wk

"Figures," said Lee as she went back to looking at clothes. "I wonder what he wants that teddy bear for."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NN0paU8WF

"I'm also wondering too," I said as I continued to be on high alert.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡah1faTlEVY

Then, Zoey and Derrick's brother were walking out of the store. I hit Lee on the shoulder and she looked out the window.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiCbbnY0qp

"Come on, let's go," I said and the two of us went out of the store.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MpMtWd5i3

We made sure to keep a 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1no7B4NAt
reasonable distance between Zoey and Derrick's brother as we followed 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKE6Nc68FOO
them. Lucky for us, there were a lot of people around, so if either of 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaVY9XJeSW
the two ever had a chance to look behind them, they wouldn't actually 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvk3xXzpqO
see us properly and we could easily pretend to walk away.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhb9WciUAFe

They went down the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8y4Jf36ra0
escalators and we also followed. They reached the ground floor, took a 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFFMynwylI
corner and went into some fancy looking Chinese restaurant. We stood 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBmUUMeJMs
outside waiting at a nearby store to see where they were going to sit.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEK19pieth

They were led by a 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDXRK4kMDk
smartly dressed waiter to a table in the middle of the restaurant. 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUegnyrY94
Derrick's brother acting like a gentleman, helped Zoey with her chair 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVOO0njcJO
and they were smiling at each other as though they were friends. I bet 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbw2iRG63gn
they did that just to look normal in front of everyone in the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7Ao00D6xP
restaurant.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOheZwgtSB

"What are we going to do now?" Lee asked as she looked at me.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrg4Fm3PMIY

"I don't know. We surely can't stay here forever. We need to get that teddy away from Derrick's brother," I said.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6WHPasqzq

"Why don't I just join them? In that way, I can ruin their plans if I'm around."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6O23SysxO1

"That sounds like a good idea, but won't he get suspicious?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2Wp9vlDxX

"I doubt it. But we have to do something. I'm not going to let that teddy bear get away."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBm3MnDQqOL

"Me neither. But what to1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdDxt3ZUa9
do?" I tapped my chin with my index finger impatiently as I looked 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhQpa21cNZ
through the restaurant's window at Zoey and Derrick's brother.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXhErvvcHe

I felt my phone beep in my purse and I quickly removed it. Seungri was calling.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtsN7rtHNe

"Hey, Seungri, what's up?" I answered, turning away from the restaurant.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmu8TipB2IY

"I wanted to ask, are you still at the mall?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxcpR3JoeP

My mind started working. "Yes, I am. What's wrong?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUZlugfkaV

"Nothing. I just wanted to ask. I'm heading there right now and I was hoping if I could join you."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsN0o7V66Z

Bingo! If Seungri could come here, he might just interrupt Zoey's meeting. And I knew just what to do.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62Jw03IbKq

"Uh, ya, you can. How far are you from the mall?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9OqQgXIQj

"I'll be there in two minutes, I'm almost there."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStTfZo0iaR

"Perfect. Call me when you get here." I cut the call.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKFhwhy9Jx

"Are you crazy?" Lee looked at me with a surprised look on her face. "Why do you want Seungri here?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtVvtihoZA

"Don't worry. Seungri 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjPQsmg9gK
will be perfect for the plan. I'm afraid Derrick's brother will get too 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNzTW6XuyF
suspicious if you go in there. Besides, Zoey knows you went out with me 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2nGgEEvdB
and she will know something fishy is going on."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1JLkL9gBd

"Well, okay," said Lee as she went back to looking at the restaurant. "Let's just hope it will work."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlExyvXHKZ7

"I hope so too."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrBC0XDWVa

Zoey's P.O.V1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYywhZmpGVy

I looked at the menu and1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwTArbgCnM
I realised that I wasn't so hungry. Maybe I was just too anxious to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFTOCXU3SX
figure out what Jehan's plans were. I looked at him as he sat across the1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIvBhk3LB4
table, looking at the menu. He must have felt my eyes on him because he1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqTS9Xkozr
looked up at me.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQZqc8EXWE

"Aren't you going to order?" Jehan asked, as he went to looking back at the menu.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06wcLkfupf

"No. I realise I'm not that hungry anymore," I said.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczKMbdVsjI

"Why?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOY3onbZ5L

I put the menu aside and leaned forward on the table. That caught his attention. He looked at me with an eyebrow raised.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjA620j6B8

"I just want to know what you do. And by the looks of it, it's pretty serious."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9jeZxRT6D

"I'm glad you figured that out." Jehan gave me a mocking smile.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfVVC8EUtA

I growled. "Stop that, will you?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDeo9LVUoZ

"What?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDTLKUIfjo

"Mocking me. And just so you know, it's not funny."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rU525Gbat

"I'll try not to next 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6VrjkynWw
time." He turned to the waiter who had been waiting for our order. Jehan1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5p35YnLxd
ordered the same meal for the both of us. The waiter left immediately.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDQxlqi4hN

"Now, are you going to tell me?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70V2zw6Ysq

"Yes, I'll," said Jehan. "I figured you deserve to know. Only if you do one thing."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4V13RxoJZ7

"Not tell anyone."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GPPaa39qP

Jehan smiled widely this time around. "Exactly."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDXO3TJdBB

"Okay." I was now attentive. "Spill."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYd3esbWbRp

"I smuggle diamonds."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPl9TAHgycn

My eyes almost popped out of their sockets. That was sudden. I didn't expect him to be so direct.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5YramU1rD

"Surprised that I was direct?" Jehan asked as he looked at me giving me goosebumps.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oMPrbBLoV

"Well....ya," I leaned back on my chair still recovering from what he said. "I expected something different."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9Z9mUwSP3

"Like what? Drugs or gun trafficking?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYpv40D9Hz

"That's what a lot of bad guys are involved in nowadays. I wasn't expecting that you smuggle diamonds."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytGJi9qeDa

The waiter came with our1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBHGc0AquR
appetisers, Chinese dumplings. I have always liked dumplings. I got a 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbjo3O8job
pair of chopsticks and put a dumpling in my mouth.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nMr38VJT2

"Yes. I know it's a surprise, but that's what I do. I smuggle in diamonds from country to country."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCfxdkoazu

"But you don't look like the kind who would do such things."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexfjQVoSPw

"Too bad, I am. And there is nothing you can do to change that."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGMEoZVho6

"Oh, don't worry about me," I said raising my hands in surrender. "I wasn't even going to try."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbH78y7qph

"Good girl," said Jehan, as he smirked. His smirk made me blush and I quickly looked down at my food.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwN9mIwZQ5B

"So, the little teddy has diamonds in it?" I asked, putting another dumpling in my mouth.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiHKAQABbJ

"Yes, millions worth of tiny diamonds."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cNIoq7b2h

"Is that why you're so rich?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHpJfXbMMO

"I was born in a rich family. We own a business but I did all this just to become more richer and more powerful."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6e0t2kKzeM

"That's being greedy, don't you think?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFHBiHqb5P

Jehan gave a little laugh. "That's the whole point. Power is everything."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdhpCsqGlQ

I gulped. He was giving 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbsIxw7CJJ
me that evil look of his again. I nodded my head and prayed that I would1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rcaWZ8bzI

I was waiting by the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAW48KbiAwv
entrance when I saw Seungri's lamborgini park in the parking lot and 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlBWRWg7bp
another car park right next to it. My mouth dropped. Was that Taeyang's 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmGcQpqGkD
car? What was he doing here?1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhFj0Qxwjn

Seungri came out of the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OcRHdnDsL
car and Daesung came out of the passenger's seat. Taeyang came out of 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgB9QwUb1ZW
his car and TOP from the passenger's side. Surprisingly, G-Dragon came 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLX99VNHhu5
out of the back seat of Taeyang's car. I felt something in me break when1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAPdtLyCoA
I saw G-Dragon and Daesung. The whole BigBang was here! This wasn't 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Lr2xZgcHf
what I was expecting.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6OFTpvm6L

I trembled. What am I 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SbsmlAFGk
going to do now? I was only expecting Seungri here. This was just 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhk7pqpz5lx
fantastic! I had to think of something quick or else Zoey was going to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn80ZOHUEQq
give Mr Teddy away.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhXq4gYVnG

"Hey, Sam," said Seungri as they came to the entrance. "Were you waiting for me?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguCU8zWMKr

"I...eh..." I looked at Seungri, then at the others. What to do! What to do!1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3L11mzNgzo

"Sam, are you okay?" Taeyang asked. "You don't look at all happy to see us."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCA44QhxAxl

"I, no....I," I didn't 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGzL6VRKNO
know what to say. Now that all five of them were here, this was going to1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wem5aww14
get a lot more complicated. What the hell was I going to do?1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFc3jYHpXYF

"I was only expecting 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhR1TmMyWH
Seungri here so I'm a little surprised," I answered as I looked at 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8uMkli5TM
Daesung and G-Dragon who stood there staring at me. It felt so weird 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBh7s6b1Tg
seeing the two of them together.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQa5lJq0hJI

"We could leave if you want us to," said G-Dragon, who looked more than happy to do so.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwMvd6VGZ8

"No, no one is going anywhere," said TOP.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81kuyW4eLx

"Sorry if we surprised you like this, Sam," said Daesung. "But, you and G-Dragon need to talk."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXER5v4B0qG

"Talk?" I raised an eyebrow looking confused. When I looked at G-Dragon, it finally came to me. "Oh, I get it."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioJxKQ9eXA

"So, will it be okay to leave you two alone?" Taeyang asked.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyVXhmA4NE

"Ummm, we can talk later," I said quickly turning to look at Taeyang. "Right now, I need your help."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdz4MghAZSO

"What's up?" Seungri and Daesung asked at the same time, both looking concerned.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAg51Wcqf1g

"Come with me," I said 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFm7m3YR39n
as I led the way into the mall, heading towards the Chinese restaurant. 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgG7Gxkc15e
Next to the shop was a store where Lee was hiding so as to keep an eye 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLCbI2GCk3
on Zoey and Derrick's brother.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigkUKBZlR7

When we reached Lee, she turned around and her face went pale upon seeing the others.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqf44DlNc0u

"Okay, it looks like you really weren't looking forward to seeing us," said G-Dragon, looking irritated and folding his arms.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnThl8SGUja

"Hi, guys. You're 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkH2dsn8zv
right," said Lee. "Sam told me Seungri was coming here. She didn't 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nNmyJucUn

"Trust me," I said as I looked at Lee. "I had no idea they were all coming."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaJxrTE4zR

"But what's the emergency?" Taeyang asked.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcLRLbJLXT

I could feel Lee's eyes on me and I could tell she was scared of telling them the truth. So, I had to do the talking.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzi0MP7OKTw

"It's Zoey," I said. "Remember the guy she met at the café and who had also sent that teddy bear?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimDo4yLnsd

that restaurant," I said, pointing at the Chinese restaurant. "Zoey is 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyZueLFuCx
with someone and I'm betting it's the same guy."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfccJlhN3m

The five all turned to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmyGMsYB4N
look through the glass window of the restaurant and they easily spotted 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnGLCFtZas
Zoey and Derrick's brother. Lee nudged me on my side with her elbow and 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOIUiaILHj
gave me a what-do-you-think-you're-doing look.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvaii89LYe

"Wait, a minute," said TOP. "I've seen that guy before."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdreREb8kkf

Lee and I turned our attention to TOP and asked at the same time, "you have?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQJiCzRuSK

"Ya, in Paris," answered TOP. "Don't you recognise him too, GD?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekw0ldbFVP

"Yes, I do," said G-Dragon looking through the glass window. "We met him at the fashion show. I'm surprised why he is here."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOyI0IuIC2

"We were also wondering 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RGpzGSHQp
too," I said. "Lee and I were planning to go in there and talk with 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafq3Jzo1iu
them, but decided that I would rather not."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22fKHE4lkj

"Why?" Daesung asked.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4P1BwWr3m

"Well, Zoey seems to be 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mHNsKJKVZ
having a good time and I didn't want to bother her with my presence 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxs6CYxNZEd
since we argued. But then again, I'm so curious about the guy she is 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwA6rcPxEzv
talking to. So I thought Seungri might help out."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1BVYa0UyF

"Aww, so sweet of you to think I could solve that out for you, my little kitty," said Seungri with a smile on his face.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMjVjlIGru

"Huh? Wait a minute," 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Mt17cnkri
said G-Dragon, who had a confused look on his face. As he looked at 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGu0y5t48f
Seungri. "I thought you always called Sam your panda."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5j2xJbxv7

"Well, ya." Seungri shrugged. "She's my little kitty and my panda. Do you have a problem with that?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3t17ilZtM9

"It's a little strange for you to call her your little kitty because I call her that."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHX1Q2yVy1A

Everyone turned to look 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMccvVw2qt8
at G-Dragon. What was he saying? I was very surprised by all this. And 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXJlLpLwn6
my heart was pounding so hard in my chest. Wow. Was G-Dragon jealous or 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Vw5NOJTV6
something? I couldn't help but feel flattered about it.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKm0kgPVh5Y

"Looks like someone is jealous," said TOP, with a mocking smile on his face.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9edjkBZzI

Lee giggled. "Tell me about it."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTe0AWD48cN

"Here you're now 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNS9pC7BlLw
claiming that you're the one who's supposed to call Sam your little 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA02GsvFROj
kitty when you're still mad at her," said Taeyang.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIahjHmIVz

"Can we not focus on that now and sort out the problem at hand?" G-Dragon asked avoiding our eyes.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFAzhNFKHV

"I'll talk with G-Dragon1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHYmVQdpG4
later," I said. I turned to look at the restaurant as I felt myself 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBK5qIBMCd
blush. They were almost done with their main meal. I had to do 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5b8TFt7bQI
something, quick.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJD968StmQ

"Okay, fine, we will 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfLSdrNvhE
mock GD later," said Seungri giving G-Dragon a playful smile. "I'll go 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjxi8TxMQS
into the restaurant and meet the guy."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0cP9Dsdlw

Yes. Finally. I thought 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsfXP9SBjt
he would never go. After G-Dragon's little jealous showdown, I thought 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvQ9Cd2ew1
everything was going to be delayed.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFVxPDm8d0

"I'll come with you," said TOP. "I also would like to know who this guy is."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡte4eUKNo3m

"We will wait out here," said Daesung.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMa9jFD0Ojl

Seungri and TOP started their way towards the restaurant, while the rest of us just stood there like statues.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoa8aQfCW3d

"So, are we going to stay here or what?" G-Dragon asked.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqlIggoxDo

As much as I wanted to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jmI1Fe7QC
stay here and see what will go on with the others in the restaurant, I 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHenJ5Jti0q
decided it was time for G-Dragon and I to talk.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhd28zBCQdC

***1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVBueOzYhi

Zoey's P.O.V1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EzVuqZAv8

As much as I tried to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkK21vqUqFk
enjoy this meal we were having, I couldn't wait to get out of this place1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7Uc2FA9Ld
and just go back to the hotel. After my little talk with Jehan, I 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRgYiVYQxT
haven't been able to talk again freely. I had been quiet throughout the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VwWaAkXbE
whole meal and I bet he also noticed it too.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDu7BhRmBS2

"Have you finally decided to follow table manners or are you tired of talking to me?" Jehan asked.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxMb7CvhrI

"If by tired, you mean scared, then yes," I said as I finished my noodles on the plate.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshBkEz2l5H

"Scared? Are you really that scared of me?" Jehan had a questioning look on his face.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1thl8T1794

"Well, ya. Do you see the way you look at me sometimes? No, you don't. Silly of me for even asking."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMS8b5hk7UM

"Looks like you're getting all worked up for nothing, Zoey." Jehan got a napkin on the table and wiped the corners of his mouth.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKBx2xap0J

"What do you want me to 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVE5NqjWPby
do? I just found out that you smuggle diamonds, which to me is very 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZCMFBgCIL
illegal like drugs and gun trafficking. And I'm very scared that there 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfU8XV8dHCd
are a lot of guns involved because you pointed one at me back in Paris."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAj8BPwter

"Don't blame me. You wanted to know what I was up to."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6waMSGMlnL

"Well, you should have played hard to get. Given that look you give me, I wouldn't even have asked any further."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHaPXhGkxF

Jehan shook his head and1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwmaF0Hjof
surprisingly, he chuckled as he leaned back on his chair. "I wonder how1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFFcJKn8bC
your group members even put up with you. You're amusing yet so 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFXy2ps3r2
annoying."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavrmtMgiEm

"My group members and I get along just fine despite my drama and the petty fights we have."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxf2kJxPYnU

"Mmm. I see that. Are you up for dessert?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkPalM5iYT

"Do you know what, I don't want dessert. I want to go back to the hotel if you don't mind."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5Da8gHwhg

"You can leave if you give me the teddy bear," said Jehan as he outstretched his arm and opened his palm.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzz45CCx7aW

"Wait," I said as I held my purse close with the teddy bear in it. "I need some assurance from you about something."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQzJYYEiL1

Jehan looked rritated and folded his arms. "What?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIVVl6u1p6

"Tell me this will be the last time you're going to tell me to do anything for you."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8ESW2bjx2

Jehan looked at me and I could tell that he was studying me. "Why? You don't want to help me out anymore?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnorPfLjVk

"Heck no!" This time, I was a little loud and a few heads in the restaurant looked my way. I lowered my voice. "Sorry."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsexL3UvZco

Jehan looked unmoved by my reaction, but I could easily tell that in the inside, he was pretty pissed.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSzyfvYzzq

"Just so you know, this might probably be the last time you will ever see me again," said Jehan in a cool, calm tone.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9w5RqzNAt

"For real?" I raised an eyebrow, not really believing that he was telling the truth.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoolzs8QvH

"Yes, for real."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cInRYiZN3

"So, you aren't going to come back and threaten me, right?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhC5QjZ40pO

"Yes. Maybe we will meet1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfscASEiilw
someday in the future. The only reason why I threatened you was so that1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX24dxLEokE
you could carry those diamonds for me from Paris to Korea."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFl64agD002

"Why? Because we were using a private plane and there was less security?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7I4fcv5ars

"I'm impressed. You're actually smart."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9uosXZpi4

"I watch too many movies." I gave him a smile, though I didn't really mean it.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwnHcP5CfP

"Figured. So, the teddy, please." Jehan had his arm outstretched again.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWabRMMJ5mj

I took a deep breath. This was it. Once I give him the teddy, it will all be over and I can finally be in peace.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfkscAHAEY

Just as I was about to open my purse and take out the small teddy, a voice I recognised came behind me.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQmPEq8pqp

"Zoey, hey!"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfteLqz9CMZ

Seungri? I quickly 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1H0DLXn0Je
turned around and standing at the door of the restaurant, stood Seungri 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTpbpRRYOn
with TOP beside him. I was so horrified. Oh no! What were they doing 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1EUysQsrb
here?1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4tYvKDlfs

They came over to our 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvReG0Uehv9
table and I still couldn't believe that they were here. I tried to put 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcqw08XSef
up a smile but so far, I couldn't. I looked over at Jehan who had a grim1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4aHjq9oiBC
look on his face. This was not supposed to happen. What were we going 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlhDoQa3Cu
to do now?1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdu0nGUyzz

"Hey, Zoey," said TOP. Then he turned to look at Jehan. "Mind if we sit?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4pLD3F8y6

"Sure," said Jehan giving TOP a smile. "We met at the fashion show in Paris."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08Tl1m28HT

"Ya, we did," said TOP as he sat down and Seungri sat opposite him. "Your name again?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGs8zCUIvO

"Jehan."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTskhBlef5

"Nice to meet you," said Seungri. "I'm...."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7iT8KVQjr

"There is no need for introductions, Seungri," said Jehan. "I already know who you are."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9kN6A14IN

"Good," said Seungri. "So, what brings you here?"1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWlUp5lAxc

"I just came here to visit. I met Zoey again and decided to have lunch together."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdn2orGIJkI

"Oh." Seungri nodded his head.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcludcbx5U

"Ya," I said as I took a glass of water beside me and drank from the cup.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUI9JyVsG7S

"Weren't you the same guy at the café with Zoey the other day?" TOP asked.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7TCDTxCfI

I almost spit out the 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CS00Y6B6m
water in my mouth but I tried not to. I ended up choking instead. The 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgxxU8dm4r
three men all turned to look at me and I hit my chest as my eyes begun 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVBQ96oCPj
to water.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tvi2m7YYu

"Are you okay, Zoey?" Seungri asked.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVoPO7emiA

"Ya, I'm fine," I said. How did they figure out that Jehan was the person I met at the café?1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLIYyE8dNK

"Yes, Zoey and I met at the café the first day I got here," said Jehan, answering TOP's question.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fhWzj6mYK

Jehan looked at me and I1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxJrTjeaJ4
bet he was also wondering how the others could have figured out all 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxh9YRTsgVk
this. I gave him a look that said I had no idea how they did.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMpRAExCvq

"May I ask what you're 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ37bJgmxBM
doing here?" I asked looking at TOP and then at Seungri. This was 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzo2WMEFqzS
getting frustrating and I didn't want them to be here anymore.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxNypKtO2j

"Oh, we just came here 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICuUwE0ZJ6
to see if we could shop for a few things," said Seungri. "Then we saw 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kPybWKjEB
you as we were walking by and decided to say hi."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBC0i1eXow

"Hope we didn't interrupt you with anything," said TOP. "You two seemed to be having a serious conversation."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYKHN70Bdb

"No, you didn't," said Jehan.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0g5TGBQhd

Then a phone rang. It was Jehan's phone. We were all silent at the table as Jehan looked at his phone.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJzqeYLDp5

"I think it's time to leave," said Jehan putting his phone on silent. "I have a business meeting to attend to."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAIiMPEWkFt

"Okay," I said. "We will meet some other time then before you leave for Paris."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHmr8f2nwh

"Yes, we will," said 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2pw1MKQI9
Jehan as he pulled our his wallet and pulled the cash out to pay for the1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIRlcXXL15
bill, leaving it on the table. He quickly stood up from his chair.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAKj8KS6tR

"We will stay in touch," he said as he looked at me and then turned to face the others. "It was nice meeting you."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxv9LyIVw27

"You too," said Seungri.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNtargBZyR

Jehan gave a small smile1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrX741dF6tv
and swiftly left the restaurant. I wanted to growl in frustration, but 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdd3Eff77jT
not in front of Seungri and TOP. When I thought I could finally give the1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSks0AyLcfj
teddy bear away, these two show up. Why was this happening to me?1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZK4gdo6Gd

"He seemed kind of nice," said Seungri. "Okay, let's go shopping."1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MZzIrSSgA

"Are you up for it, Zoey?" TOP asked, as he looked at me.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDZ51pzjtM

"Sounds fun," I said as enthusiastically as I could.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21miEnhz8f

"Great, let's go," said Seungri and we all stood up the table and headed out of the restaurant.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGMDNer5ng

I wondered how I was 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0X01c3NFK
going to have fun when I knew what I had come here for hadn't gone as 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeQOMzz5xg
planned. And all that still meant that I still had a gun pointed to my 1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRHe6144yu
head until I give the teddy bear away.1204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBsv43668J

This was just great!
