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
***1204Please respect copyright.PENANAm6f0HWdWTC
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
"Well, I'm glad you 1204Please respect copyright.PENANAJPhKiKhQUy
think I can blackmail you," I said as I reached the top and walked away 1204Please respect copyright.PENANAMVctUMHYLR
from the escalator, walking ahead down the wide spaced hall as he had 1204Please respect copyright.PENANAqPcGKFzIcs
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
***1204Please respect copyright.PENANAJdx7mMZy5j
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
manage to get out of this lunch, alive.1204Please respect copyright.PENANA1L0m6hGuKN
***1204Please respect copyright.PENANAP54qb8sLhA
Sam's P.O.V1204Please respect copyright.PENANAQxHbO3p7P5
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
mention that the whole crew would be coming too."1204Please respect copyright.PENANABDTR8cTNo3
"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
The five BigBang members all nodded their heads.1204Please respect copyright.PENANASXRILDEFau
"Well, if you look into 1204Please respect copyright.PENANAjrYLLNDG83
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!
