Zoey's P.O.V1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pLX4B9fpY
Waking up this Monday 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfi6sLKynwu
morning was hectic. I didn't want to get out of bed, but in one way or 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDET3s2CFh1
another, I would have to. I lay awake, thinking. I didn't want to face 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSJjVtGR6M
off the challenges for today knowing that one of them was dealing with 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQr7p4mB2Sg
Jehan. Since I still have the teddy bear, I wasn't as free as I expected1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6r0MI5UDeZ
myself to be.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkGiiJKPFZ
I couldn't stop 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFo4iSeDKjv
wondering what Seungri and TOP were doing at the mall yesterday. As much1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKh29FlZTBv
as I wanted to believe that it was a coincidence, I couldn't help but 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6P7Yl8T4I
feel that something was wrong.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLElZuihRd
Could they have known 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSo2ADxD9B
about Jehan? And if they did, then how? I shook my head. Maybe all that 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvdtY7ZKdI
was nothing but a coincidence and I was just being paranoid. If they 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhk22vdifo
really had found out about Jehan, they would have been asking questions 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGID4oeYRFi
about him and what he does while we were shopping. But they didn't. We 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemI7Jtzqhs
just had our usual conversation.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJWumBAHbG
I brushed off all those 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVxA66aJWN
thoughts aside when the alarm on my phone rang telling me to get up. The1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc24KMpsW6T
last time I had ever put up an alarm was the morning of my last day of 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXXkzL403l
high school. Eversince I became a musician, I never put up an alarm when1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jAAZW7EVD
I knew I had someone around to wake me up. Like Sam.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTYhMGdGbo
But now that she wasn't 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbLpw2pgct
here, I had to wake up on my own. Most of the time, I would do so 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpkWw4t5Ic
without her help. But when I overslept, she was always there to wake me.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0vdrYtsv9
Anyway, right now, I was just too troubled in my sleep that I must have1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnRKUZVhfg
woken up early before the alarm rang.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtlGHPdGvT
I sat up on my bed and 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMYR9yyjdY
switched off the alarm. I checked the empty bed beside mine and I 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8CphwJArH
couldn't help but realise how much I miss Sam. I don't know why I was 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGHUYmWMiw
feeling this way, but I hated the fact that I was missing her so bad. 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDOHowSLG5
Not after what happened yesterday at the mall and all over social media.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytwbSCFPr7
After seeing her with 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGF8tJEDAQ
G-Dragon yesterday broke my heart further into tiny pieces. As much as I1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowrCNu2NvL
knew she was only there just to try and resolve things with G-Dragon, I1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Y27GsZWbg
was filled with fury seeing the two of them together. And to make 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6OFyt2rms
matters worse, after I had left the mall, I went online and there were 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kCdQeCx3n
pictures of the two everywhere. They were a trending topic for the whole1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmco23K81o
day. That left me devastated.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7Pcwvx6AH
I couldn't stop looking 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKj06Y0Xrg
at pictures online even when I came back to the hotel. I read so many 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJO6ki0gz5
comments. As much as there were so many haters around (like myself), so 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqVnlLlkGN
many people couldn't stop talking about how adorable the two looked 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5XBinb0YL
together. I couldn't help but admit to myself that they were right. They1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQJ8ZHgozM
really did make a cute couple. And that left me envious. I wished it 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQBIUSusOi
was G-Dragon and I. Not G-Dragon and Sam.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5RTvgVOMA
That sent me boiling to a1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjnNc8ohyZ
point where I almost threw my phone away. When Christine came to see me1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtFTGafQAV
in my room and found me in an angry fit, I told her how painful I felt 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFJ3vUMMqz
seeing G-Dragon and Sam together.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbN7kRGPy0
Christine had told me to1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZtPDgtvt1
cool down and that I shouldn't be jealous. She told me that Sam was 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37IpKYtPGl
only with G-Dragon because she was only trying to resolve things. I told1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTsr8uRAEo
her that I already knew that. Christine quickly left me to myself when 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPfTGBUJIC
she realised that she couldn't calm me down. So I was alone for the rest1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzLe9RSZP2
of the day, not speaking to anyone. I didn't even join the others for 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiVqh5KcJr
supper. I had ordered for my supper to be taken up to my room.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBA7gw6ofTF
And now, I had to face 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwshrG2r6TK
another challenge of seeing everyone today, most especially Sam, since 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GHvUnXlVC
we have to finish up on the dance routine and start working on the music1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmEaDTjNRs
video as soon as possible. I have to put up with all this today when I 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0KjBbN5yD
was still so upset.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmH6vq2mDzl
I quickly got out of bed and went in the showers, hoping the cool water would cool down all the boiling anger in me.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH44g325EBw
After I was done, I 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVYxCMYPm3
quickly dressed up. And carrying my purse with me, I went to meet the 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5C0hh1U3Y
others at the dining table for breakfast.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6X48Mhs5W
I found them already 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKOyM1Vjbv
settled. When I came to sit, everyone mouthed out a "good morning" to 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuveF61tnB
me, except Sam. And I replied back with a smile on my face.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJoKKFhNUz
I felt a little awkward 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQF4RKnv0Ue
when I looked at Sam who sat across the table next to Collins and hadn't1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNA87GfeQo
said a word. She was busy with her breakfast, her usual bacon, eggs and1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvPauAhHBn
toast with juice. I realised she hadn't even looked up at me once and 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gZN4ya7DO
that also felt weird.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZjebOYsB9
I know that she and I 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsXG6fRz3A
aren't talking to each other at the moment, but I expected her to say a 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATGJrL9Evg
"good morning" or even look at me to acknowledge that I was around. She 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifNSDYQUv6
was one person even if we ever had an argument, she would at least try 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YF5CNc9T4
to say something to me. The fact that she didn't greet me, made me feel 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GHiTcNFVy
like something was wrong.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsskAriPh5M
I poured myself a cup of1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzAUgkvFsq
coffee, trying to ignore what I was feeling at the moment. I got some 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPdMPL4ygz
slices of toast and ate my breakfast.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfJFpvCeHw
"Hey, Sam," said Mike, who sat right next to her. "Have you seen what people have been saying about you and G-Dragon?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2P7DefzI0
My heart almost skipped a1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtDIzyXaen
beat and I almost choked on my coffee. What was Mike getting at? I know1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41KgoXHinx
he does things just to annoy me sometimes, but this time, he's gone way1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBI7UHbH4RQ
too far. I was over here! Hello!1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBcTMYQ8s0
"You don't have to remind me," Sam said as she looked at her brother. "I've decided not to go online today."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueW99ibIfr
"For one who doesn't like attention, you might just disappear off the face of the earth," said Collins.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXyf4Wguqa
"I can do that," said Sam, staring up at the ceiling obviously building castles in the air.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLtHfJRlDr
"I have no doubt about it."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1VzopuS4M
"But I don't see why you1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CXk3h7u8j
have to," said Daniel. "Just because people make stories about you and 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIQz3lSbwn
G-Dragon dating, doesn't mean that you are."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2usu7ryM4X
"One thing about fans is1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADeFTMk6Ka
that they can make a story so believable, even those who don't know 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2doD2X76Z
what's going on, might end up believing it," said Christine.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDraU7jibT
"I know," said Lee. 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kLo5YJv8z
"Right now, some k-pop news sites are already taking this to the next 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljvrgFVESF
level. But they all say they couldn't be too sure about it until they 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEBY9U0qh7
get an official statement from you and G-Dragon."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9zrFHjeNB
"Wow, that's serious," said Sam.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6Xm0AD947
"But right now, we have no time for interviews," said Collins. "We have a music video to work on."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8M31SAFXJ
"I can work with that," said Sam, with a smile on her face.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUW92Nwwn9v
"Alright, guys, finish your breakfast. You know the drill."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJgjXs4To1
"Aye, aye," said Daniel.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupKrqzxFqD
"Well, you're quiet today, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me. She sat directly across from me on the table.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNiAYzKR5C
"Do you have a problem with that?" I asked, eyeing Christine.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqEGdyyKZu
"You're just too quiet, that's all."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pHTvfl6RR
"You should be quiet more often," said Collins as he got up from the table. "It kind of suits you."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFypHMhkjf
I frowned at Collins. "Thanks. I'll try doing so more often. That's if I really want to."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZlZ8Mr8mE
"Now that's the Zoey I know," said Mike, raising his eyebrow at me and smiling.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuT6t0XSqmA
I stuck my tongue out at1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvLQEZ4ZyI
him but he continued to smile mockingly nonetheless. I noticed that the1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrI8Au6QUN
others were laughing and smiling at the whole thing, except Sam. She 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCdV3wVy3J
still wasn't looking in my direction.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6swz7XeO3
Soon after breakfast, we1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmYOsrjjL4
left for YG. In the SUV, Sam sat at the back with her brothers. We were1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GYHN0Apsh
all chatting happily in the car but she was quiet the whole way. She 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLEJbSUKzy
was like that nowadays, always lost in thought. I wondered what she 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQg1wrNxO4C
could be thinking about. Sam was one person who never really shared what1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡif4S9Njta5
she thought. When you asked her about it, she would usually say 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQis04u2aR
"nothing" and say no more. But if she really wanted to share with you, 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsShH132KkN
she would.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnw8vf2KmQk
We arrived at YG and we 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTsxo7mDhc
found ourselves back at the dance studio we were practising in on 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNzYJTedKd
Saturday. We found our dance instructor and all the BigBang members with1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynsWsc4lte
the rest of the backup dancers, waiting for us.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRPe0mL9Gd
When everyone was 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsa5sanVHmo
exchanging greetings with each other, G-Dragon didn't respond to me when1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj96wFyq3yM
I said "hi" to him. Given with what happened yesterday, I bet he was 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjXe9QEOQk
still mad at me for how I behaved towards Sam. He didn't even want to 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3B4cbIclP
hang out with us soon after Sam had left.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBhGM1UWtK
He not responding to me 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8hAWH6AJE
felt awkward and I longed for him to at least give me some attention. He1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGs1rmR60rG
didn't say "hi" to Sam either but just nodded his head when she greeted1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yG6nhEpWC
him. At least that was acknowledging someone even if they weren't 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCME6pFS2u
talking to each other. And he was staring at her the whole time even 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8PhTUPaNS
when she wasn't looking. I thought of throwing a shoe at him, but I just1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgBNmqpSs9
looked away instead.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXekAMgxHS7
We went straight to 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplDjIOubIM
practising for almost a good five hours. And those proved to be the 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXioQKY99vB
hardest five hours of my life. Since the dance routine starts with 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpO7gK882e
G-Dragon and I, it was really hard having him so close. I realised that I1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg76g57u2Jm
still had feelings for him. At some point during practise, I almost 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOtDBkIaXX
hugged him, but I brought myself not to. And that wasn't the worst part.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgD9bS9pUdB
During pratice, I 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWPMsiuSHS
noticed that G-Dragon still couldn't take his eyes off Sam. This was 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVaVOqkuey7
getting to the point where I wanted to scream at him to snap out of it. I1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsL7ktXgq9I
wondered what he saw in Sam and that sent me thinking.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb48sjklEWr
G-Dragon wasn't the only1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxyYaQ5sqO
one who liked Sam. Come to think of it, Daesung also liked her. 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59hqqORAmh
Probably even Seungri and TOP, given that Seungri had a beautiful crown 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNonDbjOgl
made just for her and TOP flirts with her whenever he gets the chance 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24LYK128se
to. Taeyang already had Hyo-rin and always takes Sam like a sister. What1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCc8JEgTix7
did Sam have that even most of the BigBang members like her so much?1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyotAuYHr8G
As her best friend, I 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmiTgBRweZ
should be aware of her qualities. She was nice and friendly to whoever 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPx9I37pOmc
approached her. She is very pretty and had a great body, though she was 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4ziYvq6iH
never ever fully aware of her physical beauty. She always thought she 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwHJXuo0mj
was like any other ordinary girl but she was more than that.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkALMIysuyI
She is also smart, 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYGVCO7y1c
caring and always understanding. She is a great leader and one who 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwgWY6jxBo
always had our backs whenever we needed it. I don't know how many times 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvw9fyT4vfQ
she had always tried to get The Toxins out of trouble. I agree that even1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBsETSPoeY
if it looked like we don't appreciate what she does, we really do.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsnoedFhg9
Sam has a lot of good 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0q6rcen1T
qualities. Maybe that's why she is liked and loved by everyone. Even her1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgqGeo6sBm
fans. She is honest, when she wanted to. She is also a pretty good 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzAKIrQjcb
liar, only when it was necessary to do so. And she is one who wouldn't 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhrpH7b6N2
want to hurt anyone around her.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMK21bxQxn0
Realising this made me 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFbxEcSAJY
feel a little guilty as I looked at Sam who was dancing in front of me 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSfvIVOBwV
with Taeyang beside her. I looked at her face and she had this smile 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5zHgvRmRV
that reflected her innocence. I realised that I had been giving Sam a 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNinuOgTYK
real hard time after I found out G-Dragon likes her and not me. She is 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FOkTkdOWY
my best friend and would do nothing to hurt me. I know she was only 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZHGf49qAI
looking out for me like she always does, but I am just too ignorant to 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsZ2uYY5PP
realise it till now.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYXv7x1Zxk
"Wait, hold on a minute guys," said the choreographer. We all stopped dancing as instructed.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkcbHHBIoV
"Zoey, you aren't 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3YsiwwLMo
concentrating," said the choreographer as he looked at me. "This is the 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNZ1ZFsX0R
second time you have made the same mistake."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGTpHbhLpT
"Oh, sorry," I said, scratching the back of my head feeling embarrassed. "I'll try to be more cautious next time."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylOVVUOvIC
"Okay. Let's continue from where we left off."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ASCzq92AZ
It was lunch the time we1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8cEOeitAi
broke off for a break. The choreographer left and the others were 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qfW3Xusfy
talking to some of the backup dancers. I noticed Sam at the corner of 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjarCs2g8D1
the room with Christine and some of the backup dancers talking. It 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCr9FnUyIx
looked like they were having one hell of a funny conversation because 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0nQkrago9
they were all laughing.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nCpU1bPq2
"Hey, why are you here all alone?" came TOP as he came to stand right next to me.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrw1BEs2zyd
"Nothing," I replied, looking down at my sneakers. "I just want to be alone today."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAeR7VHT4O
"Still not talking to Sam?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIWKM9Q2ym
"Nope."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplOVGWefvM
TOP's lips rose to a smile. "You really are stubborn."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5fxPO2bnb
"Too bad it's in my DNA." I smirked.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87g3pcy2Jg
"And how long do you think you're going to put up with it?" TOP folded his arms as he looked at me.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGsQY8kia8
"Maybe till we go home." I shrugged my shoulders.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsxyVMoizB
"I doubt it. Judging by the way you performed today, you looked really preoccupied that you made several mistakes."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gicKtPt45
"Being preoccupied is Sam's thing."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEYdm6rLNX
"I know. But you aren't 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5801vxXMb
yourself, that's for sure. The Zoey I know wouldn't be here all alone. 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazYjsR2tR4
You would be chit chatting like you always do."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdhcn1rZbM
"What if I just want to be alone for today?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3YfgiRqAL
"It's okay. Everyone has those kinds of days. But you make it look like being alone sometimes is a bad thing."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEuOGDpZpX
I frowned. "Why?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYV8RKBNpWg
"Because you look miserable."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nOLX83yb1
I didn't expect that coming from TOP. My mouth was agape as I looked at him.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3RM72YltI
"Miserable!"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNUIh1D2Wn
"Ya." TOP nodded his head. "It clearly shows."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6VaFVubzg
I thought for a moment 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZoWMHUuwx
and went back to looking at Sam and Christine with the backup dancers. 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DmezPZwpF
Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel had also formed their own little 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4Na1wnkUV
circle and were laughing and chatting too. Taeyang and G-Dragon were 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQteud4QAF
with some of the backup dancers, having a normal chat.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IueTLyajf
Seeing all this in front1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6riSvYUI3
of me made me realise that TOP is right. I am definitely miserable. By 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqYBfJR2CO
now, I would be with the others, chatting. But here I was, all alone. 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnk1VqwtCDd
Until TOP came to talk to me.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hJWmW43rG
"I guess you're right," I said. "I am miserable."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFuOlna0s9
"Don't worry about it. Aren't you going to resolve things with Sam?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljsBrOGIeF
"I don't know," I said 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QJQDtCTsH
as I looked at Sam who was laughing out loud. "I'm still mad at her, but1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQ4u0bX0bR
something in me says that I can't stay like this for long."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtrtUUXOim
I told TOP what happened in the morning and how it felt weird that Sam didn't say a word to me nor even looked at me.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Y04SPcdml
"I felt so bad about it," I said, shaking my head.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJr8OJN3lB
"Then why don't you talk to her?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWvYoSqcVp
"Pfft!" I rolled my eyes. "Why should I? Sam always does all the talking."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UxxLxPgOE
"Really? You think Sam would do that this time around? Besides, she wasn't really at fault with all this."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBecait0gV7
"I know."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCE19jKoBKk
"So? Are you going to try and talk to her yourself?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgPDVEL9JY
"I'll think about it."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKQy1ev28v
"Hey, guys," came Seungri, suddenly calling out to everyone in the room. "Who wants pizza?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6oEkU3oTs
Everyone muttered out "me!" really loud. Seungri smiled and said he would bring the pizza.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFiWTAqumh
"Mind if you guys can help me?" Seungri asked as he came up to TOP and I.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkfRf1Pma6
"Sure," I said. I really needed to get out of here for a while and breathe.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR05KGOWNdC
The three of us went out1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCOONrMypo
of the room and headed to the elevator to take us downstairs. Seungri 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8t0mJWIH6
already had his phone out calling the pizza parlour to take the order.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFrPMz5d3m
As soon as we reached the ground floor, we stuck around in the lobby waiting for the pizza.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkJxcVnO6Y
"I'm so hungry," said Seungri, staring at his watch.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzC01j3CLbC
"Chill, you just ordered1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx659MbbIGV
pizza like right now," said TOP who was sitting right next to me on one1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRKkBTODVg
of the chairs in the waiting area of the lobby.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EDyiTMTiv
"But I'm so hungry."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyc0gy1O67L
"Trust me, you aren't 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQV0pxpDcWm
the only one," I said as I looked at Seungri who was still standing. 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27feriDzR6
"Sit down or else you're going to drain the last remaining blood you 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF495BjmlLI
have."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48OpjbY839
"Well, that's mean," said Seungri as he sat next to me. "What's up with you?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICJ7UMPSVn
"Nothing," I said as I folded my arms.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IyHtbcaV9
"She's cranky, don't mind her," said TOP.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFg8sMuSkNN
"I'm not cranky. Just having an awful day."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpmcF2bxkh
"Ya, we can see that," said Seungri with a smirk on his face.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUOqKfCLqr
I didn't say anything as1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJvv5aoQ2J
I shook my head. All of the sudden, I felt my phone vibrate against my 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvHlg3ZFaO
thigh in the pocket of my sweat pants. I took out my phone. Jehan was 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGuGcstBQR
calling.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXRdT8IbaI
"Isn't it that French guy we met yesterday at the mall?" TOP asked, looking at my phone screen.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkxXam9Mru
"Can you please not look!" I said as I turned the phone screen away from TOP's eyes.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Rj5rn0Ghs
"Okay, well you better answer that call."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcKJWN7HLL
I stood from the chair and answered Jehan's call when I was a few feet away from the two.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YFLgSrGXi
"Hello," I answered.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWctniAQRyz
"Hey, Zoey," said Jehan. "Are you busy today?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBQtuEioqe
"Ya, I'm very busy," I answered. "Why?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVv5wa02Hne
"We have to meet today, ASAP."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUv5QtL7E82
"But I can't. I have a lot to do today and I don't think I'll manage to meet with you."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdc6BHcXbVT
"I don't care. I need that teddy bear today. Not tomorrow, but today."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTp27KehwH
I knew Jehan was going 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgX90uX6niU
to call and demand for the teddy bear. Luckily, I carried my purse with 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BB7vcM3zu
the teddy bear in it. I hadn't removed it from my purse since yesterday 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7dnwbtqKU
and I checked to see if it was still in there this morning. The purse 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQbYdrqeCx
was upstairs in the dance studio.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbEXck7auf
"Okay, what time do you want to get the teddy bear?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENdI1BAC43
"I'm coming to YG to get it."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1QpDYB3Er
"What!" I was horrified and equally surprised. "No way. You can't come here."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNf0ZGB4M5
"Fine. If you have a better idea, then call me or text in the next thirty minutes. I have to get that teddy today."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTaWQmtjCf
"You don't have to remind me," I snarled.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE57ruX6AhQ
He cut the call and I 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6q2IWFlYQJ
looked at my phone like I was ready to throw it out of the lobby through1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIWhS9wk7S
the open entrance doors. This was bad. Real bad. He wanted to come here1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBeH7UjH5p
to get the teddy. That was going to be dangerous. If anyone were to see1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjxARgFmnJ
him they would start to ask questions.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3foC1J5hm
"Zoey," came Seungri's voice behind me.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzTJASLD4R
I turned around and there stood Seungri and TOP staring at me.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGcE2BW5NA
"What?" I asked.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQ6JmNA7xx
"Was that Jehan you were talking to?" TOP asked.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBf5VcgVhf
"Um, ya. Is there a problem?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeloVdc4AtG
"You two didn't seem to be having a normal conversation," said Seungri. "It sounded like you were arguing or something."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJav7mTs7pW
"Arguing? Pfft. No," I gave out a small laugh trying to hide my fear. "It was just some silly misunderstanding."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzNFUOFcPM
"Come on, Zoey," said TOP. "That was no ordinary misunderstanding and I know an argument when I see one."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGEJjAxwaC
"Guys, it's nothing. You're worrying for no reason."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqztDy6MhdU
"Oh, ya? Then why were you talking about that teddy bear then? It's that small cute teddy he had sent you, right?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeg7V1VJIki
Dang it! I was cornered 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruuEAJzqIU
now. They had heard about the teddy. I couldn't come up with a lie. If 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzj6Ny06xkQ
anything, I'm a terrible liar. Looks like the truth will always come to 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoIsvJWnkr
light no matter how much you try to hide it.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDy2alETw6
"Tell us, Zoey," said Seungri softly. "It can show on your face that something is wrong."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sH65L6RTy
I sighed as I looked down on the floor. "Fine. But don't tell anyone."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduWdHqRSEt
"Okay. Now tell us what's going on," said TOP.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5t4jDuKZjE
We went back to settle down on the chairs. We were at a reasonable distance away from the receptionist so I could talk quietly.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuaC5nM3bD
I told them everything 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXGemqpgk7
from what happened in Paris till now. They listened carefully and hadn't1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sZNhW4DIF
said a word until I finished the whole story.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0kzmTWSfo
"Have you told anyone about all this?" Seungri asked.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡult1DICVAB
"Just you two," I answered.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Sq24AMDER
"Wow, this is serious," said TOP, trying to take it all in. "He's a diamond smuggler?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOpSTJejY2
"Surprising, right?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGuUAas8W0
"He seemed so nice when we met him," said Seungri.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVD94WWxS12
"We should involve the police," said TOP.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UWaKu2Xol
"No! We can't!"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjoWmmqlbk
"Why?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsmS0sQ8hR
"You know word goes out 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8zRBodjPF
fast. The next thing we know, it's going to be all over social media and1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgBAz5qaZw
might give The Toxins a bad name. I would rather do this quietly."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3oPMR7CfL
"And how are you so sure he isn't going to use you again?" Seungri asked.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YrfpzC6lB
"He assured me that this1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKE8wuJHKU
will be the last time he will ever use me to do any of his dirty 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOOgmlKcPn
business. I just have to give him the teddy bear and that's it."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcLmvW1dxK
"Give who the teddy bear?" came Christine's voice.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloMV1pL8c8
The three of us turned 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnFfr8ozyz
and we saw Christine standing a few feet away from us. We hadn't heard 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsfZX62aFe
the elevator doors open nor her footsteps. How did she get here unheard?1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpwHlI1sjI
"Christine, you're here?" I raised my eyebrows.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JEHHjATLx
"Ya, I came to check up on you guys since some of us are really hungry," said Christine.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0NxzArxwc
"The delivery guy hasn't arrived yet," said Seungri with a smile.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtG8SCBxOy
"What's this about some guy and a teddy bear?" Christine asked as she looked at me.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIl9X7YLdxC
"Ummm, it's nothing, Christine," I said, waving my hand in the air. "Just talking about some random stuff."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHe1Oqh6isL
"Random stuff involving a1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxveKRVr76m
teddy bear?" Christine shook her head at me as she folded her arms. "I 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioByRExEjL
clearly heard you talking about giving some guy a teddy bear and that 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHe4lvvTE6x
you won't have to do his dirty business anymore. I know you're hiding 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoxdkrLZHz
something from me, Zoey. So you better start talking."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sv93wyNQM
I rolled my eyes and sighed so loud in frustration. How many people was I going to tell the truth to today?1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoAFiHLz67
"Fine," I said, looking at Christine. "But please don't tell anyone about this."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIza5bO9qZi
"Okay, I won't."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TQk47eiNA
"Sit down."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmvewptWxd
Christine sat right next to TOP and she looked at me with anticipation.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUSTcdxeU7
"I got myself into trouble," I started.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIr9y1B9pFj
"Great!" Christine threw her arms in the air. "What did you do now, Zoey?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPxrZ707bD
"I got involved with a diamond smuggler."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhm3XDCpGj
Christine's face soon 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRzidR2xWI
drained of colour and she looked as white as a ghost. She tried to open 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCZhvlOmdo
her mouth to say something but she couldn't. Until....1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhq3PNqyHH
"What!"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KsU3hHBAo
TOP quickly covered up 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02aGCjIpZb
her mouth before she could shout out anything else. The receptionist 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOESDXmwlP
looked our way and soon went back to work. When he was sure she had 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgNWa4xZXk
cooled down, TOP removed his hand from Christine's mouth.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg12bvNAK1z
"Are you cool now?" TOP asked.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtgS5jVNuX
"Cool?" asked Christine, sounding anxious. "I come here and hear about some diamond smuggler. How can I be cool?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGIT4uzYVq
"I know you're really mad at me right now, but you asked what was going on," I said, looking apologetically at her.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMCgubj3ai
"Of course I'm mad!" 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKTYKHrdtv
Christine whispered angrily at me. "I know you always get in trouble, 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HvwSvJ5h1
but this by far is the worst one of them all."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENJ68ZrP40
"At least it's not a drug dealer," I said shrugging my shoulders.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8J8UehtqD
"Is there a difference? Seriously, Zoey. How the heck did this happen?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUSsxvMCBx
"It happened in Paris," I said. "Remember the guy I introduced you to at the fashion show?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTsz077pv2
"Ya, I remember. What about him?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdpZ2xIAtK
"He's the diamond smuggler," said TOP.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtnTDms0z0
"WHAT!"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCX1fGY63g
"Ssh!" TOP, Seungri and I hushed at her at the same time, putting our fingers on our lips.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtmxBadft5
"Guys, I can't help it, sorry," said Christine. "Wait, that handsome guy is the diamond smuggler?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkexQsHK7I
"And the one I met at the café," I said.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaDewZz6Hu
"So he is the one who sent us the teddy bear?" Christine asked.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOTFTucXmw
"Yes," the three of us answered at the same time.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qPWDhTksX
"But why does he want the teddy bear back?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPqoXNrssT
"Because the teddy has diamonds in it," said Seungri.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSte7ot1Abs
"Wow, seriously?" Christine's eyes bulged out with surprise.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EbZJFjVFN
"Ya," I said. "I planned1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikyUlJJBUI
on giving him the teddy bear yesterday but I couldn't because these 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FViHkoX4q
guys showed up." I pointed at Seungri and TOP with my two thumbs.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoD9cqWc74e
"So you're the one who 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhCMxHtki7
got the teddy from our room yesterday," said Christine. "Lee was 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuZJLMfsZ8
searching for it and couldn't find it. She thought she must have 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4hLmB4x3P
misplaced it somewhere. You even went to meet him? I thought you went 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSF8jGagNe
out with Seungri."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImYYijSyvX
"I lied."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Uu6YfMzKZ
Christine shook her head. "I knew something was up. You are really not good at lying."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCXsetMcpE
"I know." I gave Christine a grim look, not feeling impressed about myself at all.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3dvxEzVC0
"Why didn't you tell us you were being threatened by this guy?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uXwq3yLtS
"I wasn't supposed to. And besides, it was too dangerous. He threatened me with a gun in Paris not to tell anyone."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKVEYtnAyE
"That's great. There are guns too. Blackmail would have been so much better."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEgkiljPzb
"I know. Now he wants the teddy bear back today. And I don't know what to do. He wanted to come here and get the teddy himself."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RUE0lkR0o
"Then why didn't you let him?" Christine asked.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LzKr4sEKA
"That was going to raise a lot of questions if anyone saw him," said Seungri.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1grB2k5b3
"Now where is she going to meet him now? She has to take that teddy bear away or else it could land us into more trouble."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixsmxChvDQ
"He said I should have a location as to where we meet," I said. "And I haven't thought of anything yet."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3aQogGTwFS
"Why don't you meet after practice?" TOP suggested.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnZ2wugop8
"But where?" I asked.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaltOake5B
"Tell him you will meet at the café. The one you had met him in last time. TOP and I will take you there," said Seungri.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1jOJtAnqz
"I'm also coming with you," said Christine. "And don't refuse." She pointed her finger at me when I opened my mouth to object.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFsBbJXu8w
"Fine, but remember, don't tell anyone," I said.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHHlgM6Jho
"Got it," said TOP and Seungri at the same time. Christine nodded her head.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BHth0iieb
I took my phone out and 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzEMrEse2A
texted Jehan that we should meet at the café after practise some time in1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt11dnp1y7G
the evening. He replied saying that he would be there.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkxhH8oe6M
"Okay, it's settled," I said as I put my phone back in my pocket.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYNbsfdkvb
"Yay! The pizza is here," said Seungri as he stood up and approached the pizza delivery man coming in through the entrance.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvlDc2QDPo
Seungri had ordered ten 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XZlIbvuLg
large sized boxes of pizza, enough for everyone upstairs. And the 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8pw9kWosl
flavour, mac and cheese. Sam's favourite. Well, almost everyone's 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmPYzy7v0y
favourite.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1844tcsbnh
We helped Seungri with the pizza and went to the elevator which took us back up to the floor of the dance studio.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgeBK5vbDj
"When all of this is over, Zoey, you're going to get a scolding from me," said Christine, as we walked down the hall.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvMzPLtEHP
"I'll be ready for 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8xvCHJCW9
that," I said as I rolled my eyes. "I just can't wait to have everything1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qiDlBHPjK
back to the way they were. Before all the threatening."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPPKhs5tqX
"No, they won't," said Seungri. "You still have Sam to resolve things with."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rLggbuipH
"And G-Dragon," TOP added.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBIOO04QgJ
"Can we please not talk about that?" I asked. "You don't have to remind me all the time."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Fe2OEkBqc
"Well, someone has to," said Christine.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmPyNXNwV1
"Just so you know, I'll agree to resolve things on my own terms."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFjiCQ2gUa
"Jeez," said Christine, rolling her eyes at me. "When you say that, I have to get ready for the unexpected."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0jHtHTzX4
We found ourselves back 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmNjBAAOCt
at the studio and this time, I found Sam talking to Taeyang. G-Dragon 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvcp2pOIri
was still talking to some of the back up dancers and I could see him 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJj1br2Ngu
staring at Sam through the corner of his eye. Or was that me being 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckWAbZQFYK
paranoid?1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzufNKevXDe
Christine snapped her fingers right in front of me and I turned to look at her.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0vsEOLqtk
"What?" I asked.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhRfZvj5JP
"You were frowning," Christine answered.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFozpZSoj6B
"Frowning? I wasn't frowning."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyFDx73QVY
"Says the person who 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdG02A0xKz2
couldn't stand seeing G-Dragon looking at someone else." Christine gave 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxs5fPygk0
me a smirk and left me standing all alone by the door, while she joined 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKAt0SymUQ
the others who had soon formed a circle around Seungri and TOP.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDCJkPPKnG
Soon after lunch, we 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3gvmmp203
went straight back to practising. This time, for a good six hours. We 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm76xnaFUMa
had to do the dance routine over and over again to perfect it. This time1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaReMciU8gF
around, I made sure not to make any mistake like I had been doing 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFZCYHZZQ8
earlier. This time, everything was coming out perfectly and I don't know1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8k0BBiL39M
how many times we had to do the routine all over again. But despite the1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHJTlFGacI
number of times we did it again, we had a whole lot of fun.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbXpYs2U0j
At some point in the 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZGnpW978R
afternoon, our two managers and Lee came over to check on us and they 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImKXkwC4Ak
were really impressed. Yang Hyun-suk thought filming the dance practise 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28nt8HtqcX
will be helpful and that they would release it after the music video. 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQb2vVEVcMU
The dance practise was shot and it came out perfect, but still, we went 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1lQFV00YW
back to practising until we could pratice no more.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTLtWxeJIc
It was five and the sun 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrb8t1byJdk
was setting when we were finally done for the day. I was so tired that I1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfJfe06HX5
was lying on the floor. My body aching everywhere. Luckily, I wasn't 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBm4qknbwbC
the only one on the floor. Christine and Daniel were lying on either 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HZeyAv95a
side of me. We were all pretty tired.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgeUgMWn71
The choreographer had already left and the backup dancers also started to leave. G-Dragon and Taeyang left together.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNAuVeRawY
While I was resting and 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsxm06w02Y
gathering up any ounce of energy I had left, Seungri was standing next 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjv1ltCDwOK
to my head and looking down on me. I looked up at him with a puzzled 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYioYcNSBEL
look on my face.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr96QShFLdQ
"Get up, Zoey, we gotta go," he said.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dbFxhrBdX
"Go? Go where?" I asked.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqP4X0F8j0
Christine roughly nudged me on my side with her elbow, I looked at her with a whining look on my face.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5Od7vPdgM
"Ouch, that hurt!" I said.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveUjtkAG0u
"Are you forgetting, Zoey?" Christine asked, raising her eyebrows. "We have to go somewhere to do something."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeKUN3Uxlt
It was then that I remembered that I was supposed to meet Jehan at the café. I totally forgot.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTOxLXRzYn
"Oh, ya!" I quickly sat up on the floor and Christine followed. "We have to go."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49IiuZGO7W
"Go where?" Daniel asked, still lying down on the floor and looking at us.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcrMMkX7EM
"No where," I answered quickly. "We're just planning on going around the city for a drive."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9ZUuKX2X9
"I want to follow too," said Daniel.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2cQljcFSe
"Where did you say you were going?" came Mike who had been talking with Sam and Daesung.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8NIOB6h4E
I rolled my eyes. Seriously? The last thing I want is for everyone to follow and find out what's going on.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0Am74SaVT
"It's nothing really," said TOP. "We were planning to drive around the city. You don't have to follow."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOLqOBgyyH
"But this is not fair," said Daniel, sitting up quickly. "I also want to come along."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDS693L6oM
"Ya, me too," said Mike.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidA6EYeizE
"Why don't you want 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFjajRm8g3
these guys to go along?" Sam asked. I noticed that she still wasn't 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3IFLfRall
looking at me. "You're just going for a drive. I see no reason for them 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPP2s1ZtNmT
not to follow."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTff7Vcm6F
I wanted to protest and 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BtXA2wjOu
refuse but then I realised that I wasn't supposed to talk to Sam. And 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmB4RDDdNIv
refusing her was going to be pointless because I already know Seungri 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuN8rEM5B2j
and TOP weren't going to deny her so easily.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuE2ERlv9w
"Okay, they can come along," said Seungri.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGk3FrYjab
Dang it!1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwt83sI0rOV
"Okay, you'll find me back at the hotel. I'll tell Collins that you had to go out," said Sam to the others, giving them a smile.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXLbWomHT8
"I can take you back to the hotel if you want," said Daesung, addressing Sam.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkicJIHxEZq
"Thanks, that's nice of 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1COWwpYPB1
you, Daesung," said Sam giving him a sweet smile. She turned to look at 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiv9juTi3hE
the others. "Have fun you, guys."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcm2kPG4sB
Sam and Daesung left the1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ800DrcunVB
room together and I couldn't help but look at the door and think to 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4FZ49BuQQ
myself that the two also made a nice pair.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAGPZTiBxr
"So, where are we going?" Mike asked.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BdYD9DHp3
"Please, don't ask any questions," I said as I turned to face him. "It's none of your business."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRdNCe2S4F
"Mmm, seeing the look on your face, something's up," said Daniel.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsj0zLeYYT6
Christine stood up from 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlFHicJR0X
the floor and said, "look guys, if we tell, you have to promise not to 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4LLdwzNEF
tell anyone. Not even Sam. No one."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsXzrck0iq
I looked up at her with my eyebrow raised. "Are you seriously going to tell them?" I asked.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLzWp1kvmO
"Do I have a choice? You know how persistent these two are and they are probably going to find out anyway."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9aMH0mt0B
"Ya, Christine's right," said Seungri. "And we also couldn't refuse Sam for them to come along."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmqE4M6lJc
"You just couldn't refuse because you like her too much," I said, turning to face Seungri.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLJ8eQpD9z
Seungri shrugged and smiled. "What can I say? I've to obey the lovely queen, right?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJlhgJGVyK
I almost snapped back at him but I controlled myself and looked away.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoH6nvGSDO1
"Okay, can we focus on telling us what's going on?" Daniel asked.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZx5NfxJqw
"Fine," I said. "Someone tell them. I can't keep repeating myself with all this."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJT92QuIOE
TOP told Mike and Daniel what was going on. The two brothers were shocked after what they heard.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCexIUbkmh
"Oooh, you're in a lot of trouble now, Zoey," said Mike, looking at me and shaking his head.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt47fZQrOR6
"You don't have to remind me," I said rolling my eyes.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPnYVMiHQk
"I can't believe that guy is the diamond smuggler," said Daniel.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgYzCXgzD1
"I know," said Christine.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpOXtemaAU
"You haven't told Sam about this?" Mike asked.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0JEmyCEYP
"No. No one has to know," I said. "Not even the police."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtu6s4RUJcL
"I think you should have told Sam," said Daniel.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVvCZj01oy
"So that she can judge me? No way."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVzN6iEGAJ
"You know Sam can never do that," said Seungri. "She would have helped in any way possible."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8pIbyJkkM
"Don't try to convince 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoorpWT8Ve2
her of anything," said Christine. "She probably won't listen like she 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEA8ySLBiaP
always does." I raised an eyebrow at Christine and she looked back at me1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacV5OcI6t9
like she could hit me with a hammer.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAobR6nvmZ
"Okay, let's go," said TOP.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMgfwxICRX
I got up from the floor 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8mymuhwWb
with Daniel and I took my purse. We soon left the room and headed 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcL7dzC8PGd
downstairs. Sam and Daesung had already left since there was no sign of 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KJJK5B0Js
Daesung's car in the parking lot. Christine and I went with Seungri in 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXDGDlJXeD
his car while Daniel and Mike went in TOP's car.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bP7N3c8y5
The cars soon left the 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAGbtdT083
YG premises and in the car, I couldn't help but feel nervous. What if 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvA0ZbU9dhL
things didn't work out like it did yesterday? I hope not. Every now and 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQuzWH0P84
then, I would open and check if the teddy bear was still in my purse.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1lsgLtJK2
"Can you you please stop1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8IMS2HeyG
doing that?" Christine asked from the back seat. "You might just drop 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWn9en1YuMb
the teddy and lose it in the car."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAk9gIcMfwc
"Stop joking around," I said as I turned to look at Christine.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmrKwRFaML
"Well, then stop getting nervous. We're all here with you so there is nothing to be worried about."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxgJp2WTbV
I leaned back on the chair and tried to relax. "You're right," I said. "I need to relax."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PpzUbAnGq
"Don't worry, we're almost there," said Seungri as the car took a turn.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CSXYmsQdS
"I just want to get this over with."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PiI6DOLx6
We were soon packed 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtV5RyqzdV
right outside the café and TOP's car parked right next to us. I took a 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dCj46dHbq
deep breath. Christine came over and put her hand on my shoulder. I 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgCURsAiWN
turned to look at her.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlvn7XoPVL
"Everything is going to be okay," said Christine giving me an encouraging smile. "If anything happens, we'll be here."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTsgGzXWT4
"Thanks," I said with a smile. "I'm glad you guys are all here."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XGbRQAP3M
Seungri also turned to 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVQ0qzLLPF
smile at me. I don't know what I would have done without them. Their 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3bLVIXC8S
presence here gave me a little comfort. But I felt a small hole in my 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvv5JBMBWjc
chest and I wished Sam was here too.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVoxd08y2K
I soon got out of the 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GcmkgjNHC
car and there was a sudden chill in the air. Maybe it's because the sun 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn37h7MnCI2
was setting that it started to get cold. I had my purse in my hand and I1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5RKV4PhlS
looked towards the café. I hope everything will go as planned.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PauimTEFP
Before I could find my 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqmh8IkOlB
way into the café, TOP, Mike and Daniel waved at me through the windows 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwrYyHrkcA
of TOP's car and giving me a thumbs up. I smiled a little and waved 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ968T3C20Jt
back. At least that gave me the confidence to go ahead.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwu8ZN59QRu
I quickly went in the 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFDRgEvoer
café and when I slowly stepped in, I looked around for Jehan. I spotted 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCCQeRNzY9
him right next to the huge glass window where we had last sat down 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4RIDKIFBw
together. He was alone in his smart pressed black suit, as always.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPmLrY9GRy
I slowly approached the 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgclPfLGffL
table. His eyes never left me since I walked in the café. When I got to 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5uAlFTkBr
the table, I sat facing him. My heart was beating so fast. I don't know 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnX4URsSSlO
why I was so scared that things might go wrong and Jehan wouldn't 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDTC8nOXHq
hesitate to end my life right here.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClVrFTi4NW
"I'm glad you could make it," said Jehan. "I was almost about to call my driver to come pick you up."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUkXhkZXcw
"I was practising today," I answered.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsCzsxR0ZV
"You look really tired. It could show all over your face."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGnCEe0xTt
"Thanks," I frowned at 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQn66HfBTg
him. "Can we get this over with? I still have a busy day tomorrow and I 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHIZ5uiuBe
would like to get this teddy bear off my back."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqoIFJTTpC
Jehan smirked. "Certainly."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCtkjQQA8d
I quickly reached out 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaXPowyNP8
for the purse on my lap, opened it and gave him the teddy bear. Jehan 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2MSOqsscK
reached out to take it and I couldn't help but feel relieved.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KCLrtJkvS
"There! You have your teddy," I said. "Can I go now?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC633FfmKnr
"Wait." Jehan held up a finger when I was just about to stand up and leave. I sighed.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNSujhlmXz
"What now?" I complained.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uLRIcuRiT
"I need to check if all the diamonds are in here," said Jehan, shaking the teddy in his other hand.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDJ7HDULND
"What do you think? That1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaXQfx0ZaA
I would steal from you?" I was really surprised that he didn't trust 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLePN5SIUrt
me. "You pointed a gun to my head in Paris and I have done everything 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3Lvrn0fXz
you have asked until now. What makes you think I would steal your 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwBiNgSBGG
diamonds? I have a life to live, may I remind you."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcMQgK2SvD
Jehan raised an eyebrow 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGOCv3VHCh
at me. "Nice one, Zoey. You almost had me convinced. But I'm still going1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmnI0CSjsc
to check. I've to make sure all the diamonds are in here before I make a1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYFT4Xkg12
fool of myself in front of my clients I'm selling these to."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodf5OFWvwO
"Fine." I folded my arms on the table. "If you don't believe me, then check it yourself. I know I'm innocent."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42L9c4ZEgF
"I know you're." Jehan gave me a smile and I looked away facing the window. It was getting really dark outside so fast.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7S5LneuVMp
I went back to looking 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡls6eI36Lv7
at Jehan who had laid the little teddy bear on the table and he dug into1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutimKd5EwO
the pockets of his suit and removed a small pocket knife. It didn't 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAp14NNTPf
surprise me that he carried that thing around.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkOAzmJkmM
Jehan slowly laid the 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLWw8AK768
blade onto the little teddy's belly and cut through its tiny suit, 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡro01hambsB
dissecting the teddy bear. This reminded me of science class back in 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyzeIOKC7w
high school when we were told to dissect a frog. Doing that was so 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNKzFCwPDV
disgusting that I ended up purking all over Sam's shoes, who was my 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37rmi5NbMb
science partner. This time, it was just cotton stuffing that came out of1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8RgBBRhRU
the teddy bear.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdi7HuiIUui
Wait. I frowned. This 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsWxY3CBrL
isn't right. I raised an eyebrow when Jehan kept on removing cotton 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01hxRQuhmh
stuffings and there was no sign of the diamonds. Where were the 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyv1EK9YzIS
diamonds!1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiM06a4ZuKD
I stared horrified at 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2PnwlygPA
the scene on the table. There was tiny cotton stuffings everywhere and 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGYvsWO9be
the bear that laid stuffless on the table was a sad site to see because 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPs8tOPPos
there was nothing in it. No diamonds.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡif6eIlHn5R
I looked up at Jehan and1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7u3bQL4Rj
he was as surprised as I was. His mouth was wide open and he couldn't 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmmgYDsobJ
stop looking at the dissected teddy. If he kept on looking at it like 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDM8yIvUFyz
that, he was going to end up traumatised.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VGYG6k14l
"Je-Jehan," I said 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBEuRx3WGu
softly. Hoping he wouldn't bite at me like a dog with rabies. "Jehan. 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSQe3QDzwX
I...I have no idea what has just happened, but, there are no diamonds in1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLeJhlJHBk
there."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41Mwd24ihI
Jean neither moved nor 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaKlKldWoN
said a word. I was getting worried. Should I move him to try and snap 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmT2xj0tJPW
him out of it? I didn't know what to do.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3e3sDesSW0
But how could this be? 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnHeku8kg7
Where did the diamonds go? It's not like the teddy bear could just poop 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtntEuZCvVq
out diamonds since it wasn't alive or anything. Something weird was 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPqI7bW0Ih
going on. And I wasn't like liking it at all.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZgNMfJyrf
"Where are my diamonds?" Jehan muttered silently, still looking at the scene before him.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEbale8fC0
"I...I don't know," I said shaking my head. I was scared of his reaction and I prepared myself for it.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXb4Q5IK1T
He banged his fists on 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGgGBWAyP7
the table so loudly that he startled not only me, but everyone else in 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgShn4sTZvB
the café. Everyone turned to look at us and I looked around then back at1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKylTrVFrN
Jehan, whose eyes were as red as a bull's, staring at me.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhw4BX3Ldw
"Jehan, chill," I said, putting my hands up to calm him down. "Let's not try to get angry here."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunyA2kU4sL
"Where are my diamonds, Zoey?" This time he didn't shout but the anger in his voice got me shivering.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpS1tHch06B
"I don't know. I don't 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqw0gmwQzdi
know what's going on right now. This is the same teddy bear you sent us.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBMG9tCN6A
I don't know why it doesn't have diamonds in it."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwssmdgbYXV
"How did the diamonds go missing?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2olJthb0zz
"How am I supposed to 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Wqo5DYEDI
know? I just kept the teddy for you. Maybe you sent me the teddy without1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtLsTDbVqb
diamonds in it and you probably never noticed."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLg3dmDklw7
"Don't doubt what I do, Zoey! I made sure I made no mistake."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfC5HzKs8xi
"Okay, chill, I believe you. Look, why don't we try to sort this out calmly? Getting upset won't do us any good."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYicFQsuG1
Jehan rubbed his 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpAtMZabMK
forehead and sighed as he leaned back further into his seat. He seemed 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOWEjeM3Gp
to have calmed down when he looked at the teddy bear again.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngtHD6fFjX
"I need my diamonds back, Zoey."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnZncrwjbW
"I know. You've said that like almost a hundred times now."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QwJEya3c6
"Let's not joke around here. What happened? Why does this bear have no diamonds in it?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESSF5WHl3m
"I didn't do anything. I swear. That teddy was just the way it was eversince you sent it."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayl3L3TeJb
"Then why doesn't it have diamonds in it?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBysVh3Olb
"I don't know."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn85O0zfwH4
Jehan looked at me with an eyebrow raised. "Who else had this teddy apart from you?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7fxAE01I7
"Ummm," I looked down 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4GT0L3PYe
and played around with my fingers. "Uh....I wasn't the one who had been 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRbR2LeZzm
taking care of the teddy bear this whole time."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0E6LMW1Tp
"What?" Jehan sounded surprised. "What do you mean?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSo7qAvtP4
"I didn't have the teddy bear with me at the hotel the whole time," I said, looking at him fully in the eyes now.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSex0gGIOFb
"Who had the teddy bear?" Jehan leaned closer, his eyes not leaving mine.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpol8SWdwK9
"Lee had it before I took it from her yesterday."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBsJYdWvSu
"Oh, my gosh!" Jehan 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJUIUpgaio
covered his face with his hands and I could see this wasn't going too 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4zsWzyNDW
well for him. "Could she have the diamonds?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IiwjVNnxY
"I don't think so. Lee 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEOLQ1Jor7
is an honest person. If she did notice there were diamonds in the teddy,1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKh7ttLwoc
she would've said something. No way. She can't have the diamonds."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvD0vVGsYA
"Then how do we explain all this! She was the last person to have the teddy, correct?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvO4mBiSlr
"You're right. But if she did find out about us and all this diamond business, she wouldn't keep that to herself. I know Lee."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwbMk5GN9P
"Maybe you don't know Lee well enough. If this is the same teddy I had sent, where could the diamonds be?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZCEEVcrKg
"Maybe this is just another teddy bear and the actual one with the diamonds is still at the hotel."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUHj2OOw6n
After I said that, Jehan1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroiNiNDvPO
quickly took the dissected teddy bear in his hands and looked at it 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZaiuEbq8Z
carefully. He turned the teddy, looking at its back side and tearing the1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6sF1kzmtI
suit away. I wondered what he was looking for because he had a serious 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYpnOC4eOn
look on his face.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqdybUNS4K
"You're right," said Jehan. "This is definitely another teddy bear and not the one I sent you."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUudGLv5Vu
"Wait, how do you know?" I asked.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLu7wTJkqsa
"I remember one of my 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXNYBfsafm
men who sewed the teddy bear after putting diamonds in it at the back. 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvHkP8r4q7
There should have been some stitching here but this one doesn't."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84eW9fGRLV
"Ha!" I snapped my fingers. "I knew I was right!"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2E2ESiWZJ
"Don't snap your fingers and be all happy about this," said Jehan, back to giving me that angry look. "I need that teddy, now!"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwCOAPnzJV
"Huh? I can't start 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mqkcQzx2Z
searching for it now. It would look suspicious. And I can't start asking1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCbkvF481y
Lee if she bought another teddy just like this one. She already knows 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXQm7JB6uA
that the bear is missing."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzoxoE16mC
"Then maybe, Lee isn't the only person you should be asking."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJSup0g1Fh
"What do you mean?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lcd5rtOTo
"Someone else must know where the other teddy bear is. Your group members perhaps."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2nxEivAJr
"No. I highly doubt it. Lee must have bought another teddy and we just didn't know about it."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡge9cqT6yfN
"Now that, makes no 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACh9Mm6GSR
sense. If I were you, I would go back and find out what happened to that1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXkeFfDD5p
teddy and ask around for it. I'll need that teddy tomorrow."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeP4O2dAdX8
"Tomorrow! Are you nuts!"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeFdSyiQby
"Maybe I am because I'm desperate to have those diamonds back."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpLKSMZDxH
"I might not be around tomorrow. I have a music video to shoot."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYoEL4gAEg
"Find those diamonds and you will be scott free, Zoey. Or do you want everyone to mourn over you when they find you dead?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzomfkCzLD
I completely forgot that1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMBh6ivDyz
I was being threatened by this guy. Though his threats didn't scare me 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgBzWETEdl
anymore, I just had to abide to everything. Who knows, he might not have1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7YPexiNLu
me killed, but he could hurt the others and it would be all my fault.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPrFMZuqEe
"Okay. I'll see what I can do."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDHx5flZXc
Jehan gave me a smile. 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqs4p8vcCrB
"That's more I like it. I would start working on this soon if I were 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Uu6dJyuVG
you. Try your best to find the bear by tomorrow, will you?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJGF6PiQ9L
I nodded my head and 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHC9aYxNyG
that made him smile even more. He soon stood up from his seat and looked1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdK35QyihRm
down at me. I looked back at him without a saying a word.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUT6RgpXKbK
"See you tomorrow," said Jehan and he quickly walked out of the café.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gOELJrNOe
I sat there as I buried 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3T6Yi8to9c
my face in my hands, thinking of what to do. Again, everything was 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqB61GkC5F
ruined. First, the interruption from TOP and Seungri yesterday. Now, the1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyuai7eJpO
teddy bear had been swapped with another. My life couldn't get any 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTAT1u54gY
worse than this. What was going on? Who was putting me into so much 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVY6MvjZdm
drama that might just ruin my life?1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6684oIdVMD
I hadn't noticed the bell of the café ringing because I felt a hand on my shoulder and when I looked up, there stood Christine.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxjkGovImW
"Zoey, what happened?" Christine asked, as she turned to look on what was on the table.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuP7PYQ0q2D
I could hear footsteps 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYB5SOvglPv
behind me. The others had come in the café too. They all looked worried 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6Qyj8DiyZ
when they saw the look on my face.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsaeM609iK
Christine sat where Jehan had been a few minutes ago and looked at the tattered teddy bear on the table.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIAJKTN0t1
"What's going on?" Daniel asked. "And what happened to Mr Teddy?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyMic0ekXF
"Jehan didn't look happy when he left the café," said TOP. "Didn't he get his diamonds?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgB6hd6cwIp
"No," I answered. "He didn't."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3M1SxoB4Y
"What?" Seungri sounded surprised. "What do you mean he didn't get his diamonds?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ704oK8nfb6
"This teddy isn't the teddy he had sent us," I answered. "Someone swapped the teddy with another."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXkGVlX5fE
Mike shook his head. "But who? We didn't know what that teddy bear had until now, so, it couldn't be anyone of us."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlvyqeeRc0
"And what about Lee?" 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkUeGybtcM
Christine asked. "She was the one who last had the teddy before Zoey 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDwGNLaf8K
took it. But what doesn't make any sense is why she would want to get 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqVxr5yRog
another teddy when she had asked me last night where Mr Teddy had gone 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUDA7ihPei
to."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4bMAeMQco
"This is bad," I said, 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5Y6QR1oYf
leaning my elbows on the table and holding my head. "Whoever has the 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDxFW6AlYz
teddy, knew what must have been going on this whole time."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKZMRTMHtq
"Ya, but who could have known?" Seungri asked. "It couldn't be Lee because all she knows is that the teddy has gone missing."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV26k598Ohe
"Maybe Sam has it," said Mike.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaBjUngAxO
We all turned to look at Mike with grim looks on our faces.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HELjbe9um
"Sam?" I wondered for a 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Fkz4H39xi
little while. "Why would Sam have the teddy? And if she did, how could 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkNwDQOE1x
she have swapped it with the other one?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0zYAPv7Y0
"Okay, wait," said TOP. 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHnB2qZk5S
"This is all too confusing. Does Sam even have any idea or clue as to 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwgWyOoefL
what's really going on in the first place?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8MBOyEYlZ
"I doubt it," I said 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwgROYWpcq
shaking my head. "If she knew what was going on she would have 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByv0WtRtPi
confronted me. And besides, she was also at the mall yesterday and would1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPxa11k7Z1
have probably seen Jehan and I together. But she didn't."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcBnHcrNJa
TOP and Seungri looked 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vUhm2SHjU
at each other after I said that. What was up with them? The look they 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8vHzmqjZi
gave each other made me feel that something was up but I quickly brushed1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5zoXjEIu7
it away.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbGDOkodoH
"I highly doubt it too,"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4zqOLB8W9
said Daniel. "If she knew Zoey was into some kind of serious trouble, 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqfOY2nmbC
she would have asked us about it."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB39nWYK4nJ
"That's true," said 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntZfwQrb4q
Mike. "Come to think of it, I don't think Sam has it. For her to swap 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ImoJuWTDE
the teddy, she would have bought it from somewhere."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WXjYNapXs
"And I checked out the 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfRq1DZ3C1
shopping bags, Lee came with yesterday when she went shopping with Sam. 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqJZhtb5Ps
There was no sign of a small teddy in any of them," said Christine.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBL1OG1TiSW
"She must have bought it when she was with G-Dragon," I said.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwB1Hwier6
"No, I highly doubt it,"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQk3iR15xGz
said TOP. "There are some dedicated fans who followed those two 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWh1PpUH25
yesterday, describing which store they went to and taking pictures. They1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSNQfa2ty8
said nothing about them entering a toy store."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspg6sMnDwu
"Now that's what I call a dead end," said Daniel.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnX3t4RBJh
"Fine, so Lee and Sam have been cancelled on the list," said Seungri. "Who else could have swapped the teddies?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu69V373oxN
"Collins?" Mike asked.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyUHf8ozji
"Ha! No way," I said, almost laughing in a such a serious situation. "How could he have known about Jehan and the diamonds?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0rF8aPQzj
"Mmmm, good point," said Seungri. "He's been really busy these past few days."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmp4tHxebMX
"But who knows? Maybe he1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoFLWSw3qK
has been spying on me this whole time and I haven't noticed. He 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrsfUTxxCe
considers me the black sheep that has to be kept an eye on at all 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChtwRWTN0i
times."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQWhruc9rM
"You're definitely the black sheep, Zoey," said Mike.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQxHogAtEH
"Hey! May I remind you, I'm not the only one here who gets into trouble here."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXlPmzukSC
"Okay, guys, focus," said TOP. "What makes you think Collins might have been the one who swapped the teddies?"1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbiYWJw35b
Daniel suddenly snapped his fingers. "I remember now. Yesterday when he came back with Sam, something happened."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE63AMZNYYd
"Wait. Collins was with Sam?" I asked.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFT2ivRMEE
"He was the one who went1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvszU3SHj7g
to pick her up from the mall," Daniel answered. "Back to what I was 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloODBafNmr
saying, Collins had something delivered to him at the hotel. He even 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZS15FjTk1
went to get it himself from the delivery man who was coming up the 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglojrJy6qL
elevator."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetNWxxjHx0
"What was it?" We all asked Daniel, looking at him anxiously.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyvyFOmyab
"It was a small box. And if you ask me, it was kind of like the one Jehan had sent that teddy bear in."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22CBsxtsEl
"Gosh, it's been Collins this whole time," said Christine.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJ7Ve8xgtI
"I couldn't be too sure," I said. "But after what Daniel has said, I don't know what to believe."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1MLiqgePj
"We really have to go," said Seungri. "We can't stay here."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYqM8ZMEiS
"You're right," I said 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0KKdg9UUV
as I stood up from the seat taking my purse. "I've to search for that 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrzcWGyKWZ
teddy if I want to make it out alive tomorrow."1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfacXRwc2id
"Wait, we can't leave all this here," said Christine, taking what was left of the teddy bear in her hands.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzsN6B3pzg
We all walked out of the1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDmTpRwEnt
café, hopping no one had heard our conversation. There were a few 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvky9cRu475
people in the café and I highly doubt if they really heard anything.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEmv7Q8W2T
While I was in the car 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdMzoy6Xlt
with Seungri driving and the others in the other car behind us, I was so1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLHdLPGvLC
troubled about the missing teddy. I couldn't help thinking that Collins1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hSWQLmIu4
is involved. But that didn't make any sense. As much as I wanted to 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcTjuoJdn8
believe that Collins could have swapped the teddies, I shook my head at 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7ijdau0qc
the thought of it. Maybe it really wasn't Collins.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEZaXNFw2U
If it isn't him, then 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0VjQEQaB7
who? It couldn't be Lee because she had the teddy with her the whole 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuV4G5nMIce
time and she couldn't buy another teddy for no reason. And I couldn't 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1VePuYdah
picture Sam doing anything like that either because I had never seen her1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtrihrO3Ww
near that teddy after Jehan sent it to us that day.1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHS8r6OVkH
What if I had the wrong 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIWeOvFZ9H
teddy the whole time and I had never known till now? All this was too 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQRbipATvZ
confusing. Who swapped the teddies? And when did the swapping ever take 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTSZlSdoV4
place without any of us noticing in the first place?1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqZ2yqiuqS
I hope I could be able 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnS0dFO7cun
to find the teddy soon. Jehan might threaten to kill me, but I was 1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbxfMDQC3q
pretty sure he would try to hurt the others too. And I wouldn't let that1270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgdZ4xnlEd
happen.
