Zoey's P.O.V1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZHrkHvSW3
Waking up this Monday 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTc1J9ZnEz
morning was hectic. I didn't want to get out of bed, but in one way or 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBzQoVKpCu
another, I would have to. I lay awake, thinking. I didn't want to face 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFB9KwmacT
off the challenges for today knowing that one of them was dealing with 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBZ7qhZIvL
Jehan. Since I still have the teddy bear, I wasn't as free as I expected1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBWnbNLFjD
myself to be.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwlAdbGkFb
I couldn't stop 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZUJjsaTSO
wondering what Seungri and TOP were doing at the mall yesterday. As much1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Pc11S7U6g
as I wanted to believe that it was a coincidence, I couldn't help but 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaC5jPelmNE
feel that something was wrong.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9CAZMRBl7
Could they have known 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhvxoNlt6o
about Jehan? And if they did, then how? I shook my head. Maybe all that 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCB3QuUlwO
was nothing but a coincidence and I was just being paranoid. If they 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0ZpUla6c9
really had found out about Jehan, they would have been asking questions 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAu77KqKHW
about him and what he does while we were shopping. But they didn't. We 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomtXuC7geR
just had our usual conversation.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIHcGs9IsC
I brushed off all those 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiOmPc9KeE
thoughts aside when the alarm on my phone rang telling me to get up. The1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOs4rLvmN4
last time I had ever put up an alarm was the morning of my last day of 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxbzErCjOH
high school. Eversince I became a musician, I never put up an alarm when1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnlHz5knQI
I knew I had someone around to wake me up. Like Sam.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fUJBE5QPD
But now that she wasn't 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XZd4kTrbH
here, I had to wake up on my own. Most of the time, I would do so 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ102rPpgSh
without her help. But when I overslept, she was always there to wake me.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsglsGreWK
Anyway, right now, I was just too troubled in my sleep that I must have1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhW9XpqkRs
woken up early before the alarm rang.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmP5j8yCM4
I sat up on my bed and 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWS1IGptAn
switched off the alarm. I checked the empty bed beside mine and I 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLebgCSBA1
couldn't help but realise how much I miss Sam. I don't know why I was 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvxoIJcRAH
feeling this way, but I hated the fact that I was missing her so bad. 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyU9IC7yOFk
Not after what happened yesterday at the mall and all over social media.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicYP5xK280
After seeing her with 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5APUzy1tiv
G-Dragon yesterday broke my heart further into tiny pieces. As much as I1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmRkjNdiCQ
knew she was only there just to try and resolve things with G-Dragon, I1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5j5lPON4bI
was filled with fury seeing the two of them together. And to make 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWwlfFRP0B
matters worse, after I had left the mall, I went online and there were 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HZpxZSjQy
pictures of the two everywhere. They were a trending topic for the whole1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjoCW7mSnY
day. That left me devastated.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWXNxJ4zke
I couldn't stop looking 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsCxOhEA5Y
at pictures online even when I came back to the hotel. I read so many 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQagp08qKFY
comments. As much as there were so many haters around (like myself), so 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ll2MU4ThQ
many people couldn't stop talking about how adorable the two looked 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRZ7g3cTOW
together. I couldn't help but admit to myself that they were right. They1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcEx4am2c7
really did make a cute couple. And that left me envious. I wished it 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIXVL1Xm7V
was G-Dragon and I. Not G-Dragon and Sam.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIG1DxAFpt
That sent me boiling to a1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6fXYbiQkR
point where I almost threw my phone away. When Christine came to see me1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnazmdDvQr6
in my room and found me in an angry fit, I told her how painful I felt 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqF59qovcW
seeing G-Dragon and Sam together.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40MysbpVmT
Christine had told me to1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcypdOakxqo
cool down and that I shouldn't be jealous. She told me that Sam was 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡix7b76nZ8l
only with G-Dragon because she was only trying to resolve things. I told1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutTtmflzrB
her that I already knew that. Christine quickly left me to myself when 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPOxQV0UtJ
she realised that she couldn't calm me down. So I was alone for the rest1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFj7Yqr6ioU
of the day, not speaking to anyone. I didn't even join the others for 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0P8VnENjF
supper. I had ordered for my supper to be taken up to my room.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCA8nQ7bFgU
And now, I had to face 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfXZpA7a2w
another challenge of seeing everyone today, most especially Sam, since 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21OeTOQtWM
we have to finish up on the dance routine and start working on the music1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwK6VKTszIE
video as soon as possible. I have to put up with all this today when I 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0bdRXM2AU
was still so upset.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZwrieMozW
I quickly got out of bed and went in the showers, hoping the cool water would cool down all the boiling anger in me.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeABUPuRWEd
After I was done, I 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSX92doVnvG
quickly dressed up. And carrying my purse with me, I went to meet the 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OgzuMZ3lD
others at the dining table for breakfast.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVXfbwD5uQ
I found them already 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUwvhz2WHB
settled. When I came to sit, everyone mouthed out a "good morning" to 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlKcyhmgfJ
me, except Sam. And I replied back with a smile on my face.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9taVNRcuo
I felt a little awkward 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1Wb48xbIv
when I looked at Sam who sat across the table next to Collins and hadn't1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKBVztHP9c
said a word. She was busy with her breakfast, her usual bacon, eggs and1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQzXRCd0Ql
toast with juice. I realised she hadn't even looked up at me once and 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUzys3WfFV
that also felt weird.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaYLHHtU85
I know that she and I 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtJqIMf3Gm
aren't talking to each other at the moment, but I expected her to say a 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zgPzVikQL
"good morning" or even look at me to acknowledge that I was around. She 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkNztYA1qQ
was one person even if we ever had an argument, she would at least try 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyx1krkYwb
to say something to me. The fact that she didn't greet me, made me feel 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOe1i2ot7t4
like something was wrong.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbznYjb4uIm
I poured myself a cup of1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UbS3jrE1W
coffee, trying to ignore what I was feeling at the moment. I got some 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbI1svV3cv
slices of toast and ate my breakfast.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iBircbmuh
"Hey, Sam," said Mike, who sat right next to her. "Have you seen what people have been saying about you and G-Dragon?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDMv7UxX2F
My heart almost skipped a1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoGOM059Ek
beat and I almost choked on my coffee. What was Mike getting at? I know1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJX4wDSGsjo
he does things just to annoy me sometimes, but this time, he's gone way1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoUvFqVWNC
too far. I was over here! Hello!1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2GfB4gCk3
"You don't have to remind me," Sam said as she looked at her brother. "I've decided not to go online today."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡako38xiXBi
"For one who doesn't like attention, you might just disappear off the face of the earth," said Collins.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2Laxdivin
"I can do that," said Sam, staring up at the ceiling obviously building castles in the air.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjKt7dXZp2
"I have no doubt about it."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMidSHaXb6
"But I don't see why you1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxdMWcD4Sg
have to," said Daniel. "Just because people make stories about you and 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBUlMUa1sH
G-Dragon dating, doesn't mean that you are."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡui1lwOkdNp
"One thing about fans is1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4PDNMfM19
that they can make a story so believable, even those who don't know 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOSJeCElS8
what's going on, might end up believing it," said Christine.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JqHfornEa
"I know," said Lee. 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQZI1jUAhE
"Right now, some k-pop news sites are already taking this to the next 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5pfr6Alao
level. But they all say they couldn't be too sure about it until they 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYrSb1P3zM
get an official statement from you and G-Dragon."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOS4B8wsLS
"Wow, that's serious," said Sam.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJ1jlvTKnh
"But right now, we have no time for interviews," said Collins. "We have a music video to work on."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvW4LBxHtB1
"I can work with that," said Sam, with a smile on her face.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlqNGPAmLT
"Alright, guys, finish your breakfast. You know the drill."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6SjS6buqx
"Aye, aye," said Daniel.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVADWJUuJ32
"Well, you're quiet today, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me. She sat directly across from me on the table.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4D0aJlntT7
"Do you have a problem with that?" I asked, eyeing Christine.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyKM8Hginw
"You're just too quiet, that's all."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosvhdcumLx
"You should be quiet more often," said Collins as he got up from the table. "It kind of suits you."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrEEbbU4oE
I frowned at Collins. "Thanks. I'll try doing so more often. That's if I really want to."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxMEgyixbC
"Now that's the Zoey I know," said Mike, raising his eyebrow at me and smiling.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIyQtIDgmN
I stuck my tongue out at1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6kEQelcej
him but he continued to smile mockingly nonetheless. I noticed that the1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡourdl60REs
others were laughing and smiling at the whole thing, except Sam. She 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroUKrOrWZt
still wasn't looking in my direction.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCz7dd986MD
Soon after breakfast, we1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNyLtAwLJL
left for YG. In the SUV, Sam sat at the back with her brothers. We were1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDbD1aTSLB
all chatting happily in the car but she was quiet the whole way. She 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcxAwNv3FD
was like that nowadays, always lost in thought. I wondered what she 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8DmBylm6Y
could be thinking about. Sam was one person who never really shared what1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoqlijPIqR
she thought. When you asked her about it, she would usually say 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3ZGKR5qRz
"nothing" and say no more. But if she really wanted to share with you, 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWeI9lktl8
she would.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmvYwhCnsV
We arrived at YG and we 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLdUqq81b3
found ourselves back at the dance studio we were practising in on 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIlHbxPas6
Saturday. We found our dance instructor and all the BigBang members with1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiWZAa9ggW
the rest of the backup dancers, waiting for us.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPz61iil9wT
When everyone was 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHSHq1DSh0
exchanging greetings with each other, G-Dragon didn't respond to me when1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCSKI8s4Mi
I said "hi" to him. Given with what happened yesterday, I bet he was 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhfHKOQPLp
still mad at me for how I behaved towards Sam. He didn't even want to 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEJOasOUxF
hang out with us soon after Sam had left.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8hF6ZVnhy
He not responding to me 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUAqHa7xvV
felt awkward and I longed for him to at least give me some attention. He1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLIIBQntLa
didn't say "hi" to Sam either but just nodded his head when she greeted1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgs8Lcy1lEm
him. At least that was acknowledging someone even if they weren't 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SlpSyEvQS
talking to each other. And he was staring at her the whole time even 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4XLJJgJ7L
when she wasn't looking. I thought of throwing a shoe at him, but I just1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1sjUgnnDI
looked away instead.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjhnQpVbTz
We went straight to 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41HD1KTDVc
practising for almost a good five hours. And those proved to be the 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nbA25bZU6
hardest five hours of my life. Since the dance routine starts with 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhw9pD64XPU
G-Dragon and I, it was really hard having him so close. I realised that I1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8fiDz3zNC
still had feelings for him. At some point during practise, I almost 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZXAAkNcHw
hugged him, but I brought myself not to. And that wasn't the worst part.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zK68WkiHn
During pratice, I 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3Rlqe6wn0
noticed that G-Dragon still couldn't take his eyes off Sam. This was 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbScIrxtPzr
getting to the point where I wanted to scream at him to snap out of it. I1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0yXwpqm6t
wondered what he saw in Sam and that sent me thinking.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSygY2Nx50
G-Dragon wasn't the only1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6mi0sQ59Z
one who liked Sam. Come to think of it, Daesung also liked her. 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JUrUTGJiH
Probably even Seungri and TOP, given that Seungri had a beautiful crown 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmOwNwINTv
made just for her and TOP flirts with her whenever he gets the chance 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMejXATu5gY
to. Taeyang already had Hyo-rin and always takes Sam like a sister. What1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdLlOHQIuB
did Sam have that even most of the BigBang members like her so much?1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ092FofFa5K
As her best friend, I 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgIvxVrbFE
should be aware of her qualities. She was nice and friendly to whoever 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Hqc9dgvOX
approached her. She is very pretty and had a great body, though she was 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjmd9B3VlR
never ever fully aware of her physical beauty. She always thought she 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvhqdblu4v
was like any other ordinary girl but she was more than that.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pQKDhVyJq
She is also smart, 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIISJUW7lB
caring and always understanding. She is a great leader and one who 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNi2v0se9i
always had our backs whenever we needed it. I don't know how many times 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2N5PSlibkh
she had always tried to get The Toxins out of trouble. I agree that even1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uApQDNxM4
if it looked like we don't appreciate what she does, we really do.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBC2HzjIKr3
Sam has a lot of good 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloI0HzNVT9
qualities. Maybe that's why she is liked and loved by everyone. Even her1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSgBwBTkGt
fans. She is honest, when she wanted to. She is also a pretty good 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuux4zo8ib
liar, only when it was necessary to do so. And she is one who wouldn't 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5JoCvhEIb
want to hurt anyone around her.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWPteOuW99
Realising this made me 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4lb3dbuZT
feel a little guilty as I looked at Sam who was dancing in front of me 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0YNILWOhM
with Taeyang beside her. I looked at her face and she had this smile 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdeUVxBRLA
that reflected her innocence. I realised that I had been giving Sam a 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOLW5nZOv1
real hard time after I found out G-Dragon likes her and not me. She is 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQ1ntygUhx
my best friend and would do nothing to hurt me. I know she was only 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFX9xQCmTz
looking out for me like she always does, but I am just too ignorant to 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAnwiNItWv
realise it till now.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mMdRf4RcM
"Wait, hold on a minute guys," said the choreographer. We all stopped dancing as instructed.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6Up6fZEXe
"Zoey, you aren't 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bokCJlA9n
concentrating," said the choreographer as he looked at me. "This is the 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsVAI6537H
second time you have made the same mistake."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQvo8p85fC
"Oh, sorry," I said, scratching the back of my head feeling embarrassed. "I'll try to be more cautious next time."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QVYD7Dlp8
"Okay. Let's continue from where we left off."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKOLmjEPZc
It was lunch the time we1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3d1RB2aODU
broke off for a break. The choreographer left and the others were 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQG2paT9oCK
talking to some of the backup dancers. I noticed Sam at the corner of 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAr9dSNmb3
the room with Christine and some of the backup dancers talking. It 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxQuqculQ5
looked like they were having one hell of a funny conversation because 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrPUYdldfS
they were all laughing.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjllqzjP8i
"Hey, why are you here all alone?" came TOP as he came to stand right next to me.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dPn8aVEXa
"Nothing," I replied, looking down at my sneakers. "I just want to be alone today."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23fJJx2Bho
"Still not talking to Sam?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODMlfgu0Ca
"Nope."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesEjuei9NA
TOP's lips rose to a smile. "You really are stubborn."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsnk2SI6np
"Too bad it's in my DNA." I smirked.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhXhZXnbFs
"And how long do you think you're going to put up with it?" TOP folded his arms as he looked at me.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYZYEN5MCC
"Maybe till we go home." I shrugged my shoulders.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtsWXD2GPI
"I doubt it. Judging by the way you performed today, you looked really preoccupied that you made several mistakes."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBohKEJ07VE
"Being preoccupied is Sam's thing."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pJgH7G98D
"I know. But you aren't 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUltgTJEJj
yourself, that's for sure. The Zoey I know wouldn't be here all alone. 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTO7HQBhml6
You would be chit chatting like you always do."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eArFPLorT
"What if I just want to be alone for today?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOheltBye9
"It's okay. Everyone has those kinds of days. But you make it look like being alone sometimes is a bad thing."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjC0cStELsk
I frowned. "Why?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WkQyG7ZGi
"Because you look miserable."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgx0csg1Ur
I didn't expect that coming from TOP. My mouth was agape as I looked at him.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04L9mnTuL3
"Miserable!"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMo1hPwsk5
"Ya." TOP nodded his head. "It clearly shows."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnE7auLUIEW
I thought for a moment 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMDTW4lDiv
and went back to looking at Sam and Christine with the backup dancers. 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJXGtZnCNn
Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel had also formed their own little 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DO75UHK7I
circle and were laughing and chatting too. Taeyang and G-Dragon were 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXAjduwW5j
with some of the backup dancers, having a normal chat.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQsvYfJQVs
Seeing all this in front1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rfvTLb7QF
of me made me realise that TOP is right. I am definitely miserable. By 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuY0fmkkaBA
now, I would be with the others, chatting. But here I was, all alone. 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7O5V5ewGpB
Until TOP came to talk to me.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UZ3mwPsLl
"I guess you're right," I said. "I am miserable."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpRnPrIpaB
"Don't worry about it. Aren't you going to resolve things with Sam?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5tKsvXwsS
"I don't know," I said 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKqksukPGt
as I looked at Sam who was laughing out loud. "I'm still mad at her, but1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYsYtZOEnH
something in me says that I can't stay like this for long."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhjDUjIYsV
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.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXx9FjPAiJb
"I felt so bad about it," I said, shaking my head.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VwGDwMQIu
"Then why don't you talk to her?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2twwlafS0
"Pfft!" I rolled my eyes. "Why should I? Sam always does all the talking."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadwSrO7JtS
"Really? You think Sam would do that this time around? Besides, she wasn't really at fault with all this."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOPwU8B5Ao
"I know."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wPGNoVl62
"So? Are you going to try and talk to her yourself?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXLiFtQd6u
"I'll think about it."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89aOmSOgM9
"Hey, guys," came Seungri, suddenly calling out to everyone in the room. "Who wants pizza?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZRKyvvxdD
Everyone muttered out "me!" really loud. Seungri smiled and said he would bring the pizza.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQJKDdanwO
"Mind if you guys can help me?" Seungri asked as he came up to TOP and I.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRls1ZPtUSF
"Sure," I said. I really needed to get out of here for a while and breathe.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vOCVaLsqU
The three of us went out1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfq7NqSCRfA
of the room and headed to the elevator to take us downstairs. Seungri 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12ingqhlAh
already had his phone out calling the pizza parlour to take the order.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbM538H9J9
As soon as we reached the ground floor, we stuck around in the lobby waiting for the pizza.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeLywUcTyT
"I'm so hungry," said Seungri, staring at his watch.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Po1PGsdSr
"Chill, you just ordered1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl95U6X0aIj
pizza like right now," said TOP who was sitting right next to me on one1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nh5F5qQyy
of the chairs in the waiting area of the lobby.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbPKR8nskr
"But I'm so hungry."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rR8vVrIwL
"Trust me, you aren't 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUtgHXyfR0
the only one," I said as I looked at Seungri who was still standing. 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTyes9DUMx
"Sit down or else you're going to drain the last remaining blood you 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaz1T9vYfnr
have."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxR6abVJhq
"Well, that's mean," said Seungri as he sat next to me. "What's up with you?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50Au9LIFtp
"Nothing," I said as I folded my arms.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96bIkLdEaa
"She's cranky, don't mind her," said TOP.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7x1dFYY0D
"I'm not cranky. Just having an awful day."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKX7psSa0tZ
"Ya, we can see that," said Seungri with a smirk on his face.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXiy4RHE87
I didn't say anything as1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNshjuVHFBd
I shook my head. All of the sudden, I felt my phone vibrate against my 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjVvMzJB8H
thigh in the pocket of my sweat pants. I took out my phone. Jehan was 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiO3VzGftg9
calling.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HrCJp939u
"Isn't it that French guy we met yesterday at the mall?" TOP asked, looking at my phone screen.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgaPloAGpG
"Can you please not look!" I said as I turned the phone screen away from TOP's eyes.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMX3Cn6XYhb
"Okay, well you better answer that call."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddNOiixrUI
I stood from the chair and answered Jehan's call when I was a few feet away from the two.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRaXdheXAP
"Hello," I answered.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDRqmAcDtU
"Hey, Zoey," said Jehan. "Are you busy today?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJRoVieB31
"Ya, I'm very busy," I answered. "Why?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6paoUfzXwe
"We have to meet today, ASAP."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8rMFbI2Xg
"But I can't. I have a lot to do today and I don't think I'll manage to meet with you."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSgdpeULMS
"I don't care. I need that teddy bear today. Not tomorrow, but today."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTYu1Fjpae
I knew Jehan was going 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEwRQt08z8
to call and demand for the teddy bear. Luckily, I carried my purse with 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8q5FGOEFcU
the teddy bear in it. I hadn't removed it from my purse since yesterday 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMTQMwCNVG
and I checked to see if it was still in there this morning. The purse 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6RR1nuAgz
was upstairs in the dance studio.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACsO06Jrvp
"Okay, what time do you want to get the teddy bear?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mdWdJh0vc
"I'm coming to YG to get it."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqBQ3JOd13
"What!" I was horrified and equally surprised. "No way. You can't come here."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsJVxL0KEB
"Fine. If you have a better idea, then call me or text in the next thirty minutes. I have to get that teddy today."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDX3uBuUeZ
"You don't have to remind me," I snarled.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvusMSAOtI
He cut the call and I 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVaHzUdVMZ
looked at my phone like I was ready to throw it out of the lobby through1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuiuVweUjx
the open entrance doors. This was bad. Real bad. He wanted to come here1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzw4Ek7bkKM
to get the teddy. That was going to be dangerous. If anyone were to see1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX27dIepxTe
him they would start to ask questions.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3t6OfRJrIc
"Zoey," came Seungri's voice behind me.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaItlYHTLG2
I turned around and there stood Seungri and TOP staring at me.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygZHcHCeuH
"What?" I asked.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrXvmogesZ
"Was that Jehan you were talking to?" TOP asked.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZEWSHt6xJ
"Um, ya. Is there a problem?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSshPSPYB7p
"You two didn't seem to be having a normal conversation," said Seungri. "It sounded like you were arguing or something."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBeM0bjoIO
"Arguing? Pfft. No," I gave out a small laugh trying to hide my fear. "It was just some silly misunderstanding."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKf5sIAvjVQ
"Come on, Zoey," said TOP. "That was no ordinary misunderstanding and I know an argument when I see one."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGaFPe489s
"Guys, it's nothing. You're worrying for no reason."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0X5WGa13ca
"Oh, ya? Then why were you talking about that teddy bear then? It's that small cute teddy he had sent you, right?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJiXqg7JNS
Dang it! I was cornered 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2udBgsEOjp
now. They had heard about the teddy. I couldn't come up with a lie. If 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSe3zQGYfe
anything, I'm a terrible liar. Looks like the truth will always come to 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUpiLUQKsD
light no matter how much you try to hide it.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqH5OfLNhS
"Tell us, Zoey," said Seungri softly. "It can show on your face that something is wrong."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXWeA4zQGU
I sighed as I looked down on the floor. "Fine. But don't tell anyone."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7Fhdv0Kil
"Okay. Now tell us what's going on," said TOP.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRMuA4pCkB
We went back to settle down on the chairs. We were at a reasonable distance away from the receptionist so I could talk quietly.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNN9U8ZZRp0
I told them everything 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SIXXJInoV
from what happened in Paris till now. They listened carefully and hadn't1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7hjCc1ITz
said a word until I finished the whole story.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dHykzokTJ
"Have you told anyone about all this?" Seungri asked.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hJzHzvSaM
"Just you two," I answered.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAvaDLIC9n
"Wow, this is serious," said TOP, trying to take it all in. "He's a diamond smuggler?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQygSP2IUvc
"Surprising, right?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWohwobiUiT
"He seemed so nice when we met him," said Seungri.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpJifZAYy2
"We should involve the police," said TOP.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNeEskF2nE
"No! We can't!"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SRS9i4m7i
"Why?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtP2Kr8J71r
"You know word goes out 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfCGqLQPD8
fast. The next thing we know, it's going to be all over social media and1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrRPxszynY
might give The Toxins a bad name. I would rather do this quietly."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lWcmGAGqH
"And how are you so sure he isn't going to use you again?" Seungri asked.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMSdLnwNXk
"He assured me that this1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuUlJ8STqz
will be the last time he will ever use me to do any of his dirty 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RPqnaEHkI
business. I just have to give him the teddy bear and that's it."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpDlffB1ll
"Give who the teddy bear?" came Christine's voice.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHJgdLxbOr
The three of us turned 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrec47uOvfk
and we saw Christine standing a few feet away from us. We hadn't heard 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78GnCLfsEN
the elevator doors open nor her footsteps. How did she get here unheard?1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfSzIKIT3R
"Christine, you're here?" I raised my eyebrows.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLE1pJ8UeD
"Ya, I came to check up on you guys since some of us are really hungry," said Christine.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYU23UzmbJ
"The delivery guy hasn't arrived yet," said Seungri with a smile.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXjRrkUKC7
"What's this about some guy and a teddy bear?" Christine asked as she looked at me.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJE6vJLthPL
"Ummm, it's nothing, Christine," I said, waving my hand in the air. "Just talking about some random stuff."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3erp7muQ3
"Random stuff involving a1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsM9BS1YSgY
teddy bear?" Christine shook her head at me as she folded her arms. "I 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdRA5w4Izx
clearly heard you talking about giving some guy a teddy bear and that 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ139md5jlBq
you won't have to do his dirty business anymore. I know you're hiding 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuem19syMEd
something from me, Zoey. So you better start talking."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFR9JAbLvLN
I rolled my eyes and sighed so loud in frustration. How many people was I going to tell the truth to today?1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWSGls8bZ6
"Fine," I said, looking at Christine. "But please don't tell anyone about this."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtO3lUGHsdR
"Okay, I won't."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvXKFGDRwP
"Sit down."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJtst0xxyP
Christine sat right next to TOP and she looked at me with anticipation.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yMbVqz9SB
"I got myself into trouble," I started.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDH3Ijs191
"Great!" Christine threw her arms in the air. "What did you do now, Zoey?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYRYzgsQ4K
"I got involved with a diamond smuggler."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIwo06TuZO
Christine's face soon 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRev1yb8ff
drained of colour and she looked as white as a ghost. She tried to open 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJdML42Wp5
her mouth to say something but she couldn't. Until....1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXntVzaajpw
"What!"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4CEi3G1Bj
TOP quickly covered up 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTbD99IRIW
her mouth before she could shout out anything else. The receptionist 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQsbvcovzq
looked our way and soon went back to work. When he was sure she had 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xrq4VE3Wt
cooled down, TOP removed his hand from Christine's mouth.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcYfP1blHE
"Are you cool now?" TOP asked.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujkUNVyQ9u
"Cool?" asked Christine, sounding anxious. "I come here and hear about some diamond smuggler. How can I be cool?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAC8vVYO8Eh
"I know you're really mad at me right now, but you asked what was going on," I said, looking apologetically at her.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsWgSr4Ict
"Of course I'm mad!" 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakGNTDwOLH
Christine whispered angrily at me. "I know you always get in trouble, 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HZ3AQ8kKj
but this by far is the worst one of them all."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nx4Vjqzhn
"At least it's not a drug dealer," I said shrugging my shoulders.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNOh7gwORk
"Is there a difference? Seriously, Zoey. How the heck did this happen?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8oTKvKErJ
"It happened in Paris," I said. "Remember the guy I introduced you to at the fashion show?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnV8RjLxenS
"Ya, I remember. What about him?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ265ZkKEp7n
"He's the diamond smuggler," said TOP.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGmKQ3y3yl
"WHAT!"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPJLbaFcav
"Ssh!" TOP, Seungri and I hushed at her at the same time, putting our fingers on our lips.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYweAdTznp3
"Guys, I can't help it, sorry," said Christine. "Wait, that handsome guy is the diamond smuggler?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6omRiA2rX
"And the one I met at the café," I said.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ACtWYnM5W
"So he is the one who sent us the teddy bear?" Christine asked.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUY7oEBJ6UK
"Yes," the three of us answered at the same time.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQSYczM8cF
"But why does he want the teddy bear back?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjgQPXZtGP
"Because the teddy has diamonds in it," said Seungri.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7whPs3Kso
"Wow, seriously?" Christine's eyes bulged out with surprise.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVmYlgcUOm
"Ya," I said. "I planned1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKno3LdzogT
on giving him the teddy bear yesterday but I couldn't because these 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDGbFojf7E
guys showed up." I pointed at Seungri and TOP with my two thumbs.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuTuS24rgK
"So you're the one who 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr98Mvnh7w3
got the teddy from our room yesterday," said Christine. "Lee was 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMW5vLxtR5
searching for it and couldn't find it. She thought she must have 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBl3MqxtIbS
misplaced it somewhere. You even went to meet him? I thought you went 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJB2mWIHCH
out with Seungri."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjVrUk8xkv
"I lied."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprHTX1TtMl
Christine shook her head. "I knew something was up. You are really not good at lying."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Cj5mVTTJP
"I know." I gave Christine a grim look, not feeling impressed about myself at all.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7utnoA416z
"Why didn't you tell us you were being threatened by this guy?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHf3DQTpvl
"I wasn't supposed to. And besides, it was too dangerous. He threatened me with a gun in Paris not to tell anyone."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX23PAtqAy3
"That's great. There are guns too. Blackmail would have been so much better."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmceXR1PJvH
"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."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fnSINQUsU
"Then why didn't you let him?" Christine asked.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdFy8oOcIF
"That was going to raise a lot of questions if anyone saw him," said Seungri.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmXhbxkwaH
"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."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6B95ZBrTq
"He said I should have a location as to where we meet," I said. "And I haven't thought of anything yet."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1J2LUnCoej
"Why don't you meet after practice?" TOP suggested.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUI5XV23RS
"But where?" I asked.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgLLRfrm8i
"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.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQWpysejet
"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.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjO6VwAO058
"Fine, but remember, don't tell anyone," I said.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvV2h9joR9C
"Got it," said TOP and Seungri at the same time. Christine nodded her head.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88Ef6OQRDr
I took my phone out and 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAN6prxmeQQ
texted Jehan that we should meet at the café after practise some time in1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtn0tIigrGI
the evening. He replied saying that he would be there.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ubDPPXVcK
"Okay, it's settled," I said as I put my phone back in my pocket.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgU3AOHw2q
"Yay! The pizza is here," said Seungri as he stood up and approached the pizza delivery man coming in through the entrance.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmq0J0BN5FQ
Seungri had ordered ten 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LJZ6E78Ab
large sized boxes of pizza, enough for everyone upstairs. And the 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKy2yL4qhvy
flavour, mac and cheese. Sam's favourite. Well, almost everyone's 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzb7wPAvdfe
favourite.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqkjf1evFe
We helped Seungri with the pizza and went to the elevator which took us back up to the floor of the dance studio.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7Y4ASHhYv
"When all of this is over, Zoey, you're going to get a scolding from me," said Christine, as we walked down the hall.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8l7g9Ro1Aw
"I'll be ready for 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAZXAEW3y1
that," I said as I rolled my eyes. "I just can't wait to have everything1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdFCm8oEPY
back to the way they were. Before all the threatening."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQFKugoxbq
"No, they won't," said Seungri. "You still have Sam to resolve things with."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVT9jlH4fH
"And G-Dragon," TOP added.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlYauELxFE
"Can we please not talk about that?" I asked. "You don't have to remind me all the time."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9TNxK84yY
"Well, someone has to," said Christine.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71PG4wEQzU
"Just so you know, I'll agree to resolve things on my own terms."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHAW8wyNEm
"Jeez," said Christine, rolling her eyes at me. "When you say that, I have to get ready for the unexpected."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1SUSSIlOQ
We found ourselves back 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5whX4MClca
at the studio and this time, I found Sam talking to Taeyang. G-Dragon 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGpLxY9Lwi
was still talking to some of the back up dancers and I could see him 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzRoefyW2K
staring at Sam through the corner of his eye. Or was that me being 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVI0BmDAlD3
paranoid?1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEKcevFVgd
Christine snapped her fingers right in front of me and I turned to look at her.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGxUFG7Yzd
"What?" I asked.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Oi1wVoHDx
"You were frowning," Christine answered.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BzyzEsqJ0
"Frowning? I wasn't frowning."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkzq6ApXJq
"Says the person who 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9JXhetmp6
couldn't stand seeing G-Dragon looking at someone else." Christine gave 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhl7Ar4VKJ
me a smirk and left me standing all alone by the door, while she joined 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9wOkiZsVw
the others who had soon formed a circle around Seungri and TOP.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA43z21m6nC
Soon after lunch, we 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuleOWphsR0
went straight back to practising. This time, for a good six hours. We 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HpONEMyGx
had to do the dance routine over and over again to perfect it. This time1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtClOphod78
around, I made sure not to make any mistake like I had been doing 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgM1eSO9BD
earlier. This time, everything was coming out perfectly and I don't know1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTpTKci1Mo
how many times we had to do the routine all over again. But despite the1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzobAwjJIdY
number of times we did it again, we had a whole lot of fun.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNr1tLYyH8n
At some point in the 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORWTMvJN1X
afternoon, our two managers and Lee came over to check on us and they 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlKyhotuKk
were really impressed. Yang Hyun-suk thought filming the dance practise 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqVC51M82C
will be helpful and that they would release it after the music video. 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tIegolJAU
The dance practise was shot and it came out perfect, but still, we went 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTsDBjVGYe
back to practising until we could pratice no more.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRlevjd8hQ
It was five and the sun 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fCxzEsdcn
was setting when we were finally done for the day. I was so tired that I1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AOuRFwQxI
was lying on the floor. My body aching everywhere. Luckily, I wasn't 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKZ0UpzHOU
the only one on the floor. Christine and Daniel were lying on either 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCzkfyy16C
side of me. We were all pretty tired.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUihELWPTf
The choreographer had already left and the backup dancers also started to leave. G-Dragon and Taeyang left together.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0h7hTFKNsF
While I was resting and 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttUU9P6Ynu
gathering up any ounce of energy I had left, Seungri was standing next 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiYNSPXBcD
to my head and looking down on me. I looked up at him with a puzzled 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMIYOgm5gH
look on my face.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrpqEGnwRh
"Get up, Zoey, we gotta go," he said.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXy4ZjKlcj
"Go? Go where?" I asked.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKZzh4dBK4
Christine roughly nudged me on my side with her elbow, I looked at her with a whining look on my face.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3KPHWcCgo
"Ouch, that hurt!" I said.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0LRCfrBLV
"Are you forgetting, Zoey?" Christine asked, raising her eyebrows. "We have to go somewhere to do something."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9NBtcoMzc
It was then that I remembered that I was supposed to meet Jehan at the café. I totally forgot.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizITY3GLWV
"Oh, ya!" I quickly sat up on the floor and Christine followed. "We have to go."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpO6KZSxgD
"Go where?" Daniel asked, still lying down on the floor and looking at us.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaihKmQpszw
"No where," I answered quickly. "We're just planning on going around the city for a drive."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwuznMLhe8
"I want to follow too," said Daniel.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6x3ZqFMwph
"Where did you say you were going?" came Mike who had been talking with Sam and Daesung.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvgjalqCcO
I rolled my eyes. Seriously? The last thing I want is for everyone to follow and find out what's going on.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfpdpB73ak
"It's nothing really," said TOP. "We were planning to drive around the city. You don't have to follow."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpusMYnN5X
"But this is not fair," said Daniel, sitting up quickly. "I also want to come along."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2BZlRp47K
"Ya, me too," said Mike.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSRGPSmJDH
"Why don't you want 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPcrMBkmfB
these guys to go along?" Sam asked. I noticed that she still wasn't 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsksZgOqEV
looking at me. "You're just going for a drive. I see no reason for them 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynIRJmRovg
not to follow."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcH8pnUc9yU
I wanted to protest and 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEjPrPCKkj
refuse but then I realised that I wasn't supposed to talk to Sam. And 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY641fyXTCk
refusing her was going to be pointless because I already know Seungri 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKYDV71xFP
and TOP weren't going to deny her so easily.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBH2D61N5PN
"Okay, they can come along," said Seungri.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8mev2Hhz1
Dang it!1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELD6s03fOZ
"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.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdXduXuXpT
"I can take you back to the hotel if you want," said Daesung, addressing Sam.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KYD5eTLew
"Thanks, that's nice of 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cMcMzbvs1
you, Daesung," said Sam giving him a sweet smile. She turned to look at 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qZzBa1If2
the others. "Have fun you, guys."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjf6G43MZx1
Sam and Daesung left the1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqYkLA8iqZ
room together and I couldn't help but look at the door and think to 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OcCBOYMsp
myself that the two also made a nice pair.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSS0iWZjPK5
"So, where are we going?" Mike asked.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJbGxAEJpf
"Please, don't ask any questions," I said as I turned to face him. "It's none of your business."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObpwL23M4E
"Mmm, seeing the look on your face, something's up," said Daniel.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyKSgzJlCq
Christine stood up from 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl339hmiO4X
the floor and said, "look guys, if we tell, you have to promise not to 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmCbw4gnjY
tell anyone. Not even Sam. No one."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Mf919nz6E
I looked up at her with my eyebrow raised. "Are you seriously going to tell them?" I asked.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLsggdXM3K
"Do I have a choice? You know how persistent these two are and they are probably going to find out anyway."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEaYnxnQ53
"Ya, Christine's right," said Seungri. "And we also couldn't refuse Sam for them to come along."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1zA2jSfRm
"You just couldn't refuse because you like her too much," I said, turning to face Seungri.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4hxQfjjsO
Seungri shrugged and smiled. "What can I say? I've to obey the lovely queen, right?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2h16XZWTpD
I almost snapped back at him but I controlled myself and looked away.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcYjz4C3I8
"Okay, can we focus on telling us what's going on?" Daniel asked.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZvHgjF88j
"Fine," I said. "Someone tell them. I can't keep repeating myself with all this."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPBgMTPiMb
TOP told Mike and Daniel what was going on. The two brothers were shocked after what they heard.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhEgzbLOOh
"Oooh, you're in a lot of trouble now, Zoey," said Mike, looking at me and shaking his head.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgDEpMCJSr
"You don't have to remind me," I said rolling my eyes.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjtMISBuJA
"I can't believe that guy is the diamond smuggler," said Daniel.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJ0JBGsHDU
"I know," said Christine.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb009aisWm7
"You haven't told Sam about this?" Mike asked.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkNzLTmSIx
"No. No one has to know," I said. "Not even the police."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhJxTljHnz
"I think you should have told Sam," said Daniel.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUN5PYePeq
"So that she can judge me? No way."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡep9agLiFQX
"You know Sam can never do that," said Seungri. "She would have helped in any way possible."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNj5fcvykXB
"Don't try to convince 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtu21peyG3
her of anything," said Christine. "She probably won't listen like she 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrR7cgmDrpq
always does." I raised an eyebrow at Christine and she looked back at me1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5UD5Xm9mp
like she could hit me with a hammer.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU83kN1njZo
"Okay, let's go," said TOP.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1emPksFvD1
I got up from the floor 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgTGPwTKyl
with Daniel and I took my purse. We soon left the room and headed 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOsG0xQZTT
downstairs. Sam and Daesung had already left since there was no sign of 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4ioH9UOhj
Daesung's car in the parking lot. Christine and I went with Seungri in 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKd2a04vI0l
his car while Daniel and Mike went in TOP's car.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMdbY4kz8E
The cars soon left the 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkVZuFKjiU
YG premises and in the car, I couldn't help but feel nervous. What if 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1ipHHgoGs
things didn't work out like it did yesterday? I hope not. Every now and 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWH6B41BWf
then, I would open and check if the teddy bear was still in my purse.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGPWyWfCrS
"Can you you please stop1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFq9DPUt0S3
doing that?" Christine asked from the back seat. "You might just drop 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1Fe2FXUKe
the teddy and lose it in the car."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncUx99Tmxy
"Stop joking around," I said as I turned to look at Christine.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡld2UFagpuQ
"Well, then stop getting nervous. We're all here with you so there is nothing to be worried about."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGHFm3ihTa
I leaned back on the chair and tried to relax. "You're right," I said. "I need to relax."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2w4FADWfft
"Don't worry, we're almost there," said Seungri as the car took a turn.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nPCpkTfXa
"I just want to get this over with."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ObU5DkmX9
We were soon packed 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYYWqgMXRz
right outside the café and TOP's car parked right next to us. I took a 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTewoKbH5OJ
deep breath. Christine came over and put her hand on my shoulder. I 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTq0uX7atN
turned to look at her.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvZp5zbHsI
"Everything is going to be okay," said Christine giving me an encouraging smile. "If anything happens, we'll be here."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdq82ASMPzE
"Thanks," I said with a smile. "I'm glad you guys are all here."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9KG6FRFYF
Seungri also turned to 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9UPPAAzvx
smile at me. I don't know what I would have done without them. Their 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bp1wzaYCW
presence here gave me a little comfort. But I felt a small hole in my 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXlytB5xKa
chest and I wished Sam was here too.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIRq0RBv5G
I soon got out of the 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLby94FYq7D
car and there was a sudden chill in the air. Maybe it's because the sun 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJsimjd0nN
was setting that it started to get cold. I had my purse in my hand and I1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicbWyty8eY
looked towards the café. I hope everything will go as planned.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYD94Q51fCy
Before I could find my 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7saE3zVXY
way into the café, TOP, Mike and Daniel waved at me through the windows 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcpGQhFnNb
of TOP's car and giving me a thumbs up. I smiled a little and waved 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMyCy9vZ75
back. At least that gave me the confidence to go ahead.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQxGM9vDrM
I quickly went in the 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzpQaiJJbc
café and when I slowly stepped in, I looked around for Jehan. I spotted 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HazNEe1du
him right next to the huge glass window where we had last sat down 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaA1wlk6HWh
together. He was alone in his smart pressed black suit, as always.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJsIB5fSEq
I slowly approached the 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEc1eQGU95
table. His eyes never left me since I walked in the café. When I got to 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCyJMglzwY
the table, I sat facing him. My heart was beating so fast. I don't know 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gKf6olSjB
why I was so scared that things might go wrong and Jehan wouldn't 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQWMxLDC5Z
hesitate to end my life right here.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRFsl7JxRG
"I'm glad you could make it," said Jehan. "I was almost about to call my driver to come pick you up."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57kToSPJ7R
"I was practising today," I answered.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhxXwx6EVL
"You look really tired. It could show all over your face."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsByeK20xG7
"Thanks," I frowned at 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqoy4RMBFb
him. "Can we get this over with? I still have a busy day tomorrow and I 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eE1H3BDB8
would like to get this teddy bear off my back."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOV2o5EoIxo
Jehan smirked. "Certainly."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7N3FPiZOON
I quickly reached out 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbj8V9cIAGm
for the purse on my lap, opened it and gave him the teddy bear. Jehan 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MHtY3k3JO
reached out to take it and I couldn't help but feel relieved.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3v1CEYGJFo
"There! You have your teddy," I said. "Can I go now?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDh6cT5agCf
"Wait." Jehan held up a finger when I was just about to stand up and leave. I sighed.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQb2vVXszU
"What now?" I complained.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvztMY8CYx
"I need to check if all the diamonds are in here," said Jehan, shaking the teddy in his other hand.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYL0mMnZXY
"What do you think? That1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rPNJ7FIjz
I would steal from you?" I was really surprised that he didn't trust 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUc9ZtUQZxC
me. "You pointed a gun to my head in Paris and I have done everything 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyvcCgrAhy
you have asked until now. What makes you think I would steal your 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMY3gzPZIE2
diamonds? I have a life to live, may I remind you."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBCIWhUDpS
Jehan raised an eyebrow 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KV3vQac5N
at me. "Nice one, Zoey. You almost had me convinced. But I'm still going1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2qba2c3DO
to check. I've to make sure all the diamonds are in here before I make a1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhqq6e6rW3
fool of myself in front of my clients I'm selling these to."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQDnEDGhzn
"Fine." I folded my arms on the table. "If you don't believe me, then check it yourself. I know I'm innocent."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQzoSHweF8
"I know you're." Jehan gave me a smile and I looked away facing the window. It was getting really dark outside so fast.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7HoGnx6rE
I went back to looking 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQnOC6cQeW
at Jehan who had laid the little teddy bear on the table and he dug into1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviMbJkLEMT
the pockets of his suit and removed a small pocket knife. It didn't 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sZLL6kqQn
surprise me that he carried that thing around.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5RCexNxHz
Jehan slowly laid the 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNxlPuMaTk
blade onto the little teddy's belly and cut through its tiny suit, 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFwjQj1seQ
dissecting the teddy bear. This reminded me of science class back in 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiUaPLzf0i
high school when we were told to dissect a frog. Doing that was so 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7WSBcC091
disgusting that I ended up purking all over Sam's shoes, who was my 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQpZdAX11X
science partner. This time, it was just cotton stuffing that came out of1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssxRQXSP9L
the teddy bear.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oL6hY9s94
Wait. I frowned. This 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspAUFzOBmx
isn't right. I raised an eyebrow when Jehan kept on removing cotton 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaVQ9j5O58
stuffings and there was no sign of the diamonds. Where were the 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0uSifNg1r
diamonds!1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrFAKop7ql
I stared horrified at 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfU6jFuZVM
the scene on the table. There was tiny cotton stuffings everywhere and 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEC8IAydypA
the bear that laid stuffless on the table was a sad site to see because 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVnIyl1q3d
there was nothing in it. No diamonds.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92oOUqTqIa
I looked up at Jehan and1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATxeJ5eUZx
he was as surprised as I was. His mouth was wide open and he couldn't 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5iTW6izX7
stop looking at the dissected teddy. If he kept on looking at it like 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Q6MDU7mQN
that, he was going to end up traumatised.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKxnDi18tp
"Je-Jehan," I said 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvru7gmVySq
softly. Hoping he wouldn't bite at me like a dog with rabies. "Jehan. 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgoAzVN4Kp
I...I have no idea what has just happened, but, there are no diamonds in1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhp4b3DV5e
there."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPty9vGAUv4
Jean neither moved nor 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB52no09ikV
said a word. I was getting worried. Should I move him to try and snap 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQVfrBDvPL
him out of it? I didn't know what to do.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVNs8PisOA
But how could this be? 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UqNTMxkBF
Where did the diamonds go? It's not like the teddy bear could just poop 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5UUvj0xoq
out diamonds since it wasn't alive or anything. Something weird was 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYt8D3PN2H
going on. And I wasn't like liking it at all.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKWhKieE28
"Where are my diamonds?" Jehan muttered silently, still looking at the scene before him.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzrIa7IP4s
"I...I don't know," I said shaking my head. I was scared of his reaction and I prepared myself for it.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEkfFxlTpq
He banged his fists on 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJ3GEPbTMM
the table so loudly that he startled not only me, but everyone else in 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuk4Vnk7RN
the café. Everyone turned to look at us and I looked around then back at1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfL9KIaXnK7
Jehan, whose eyes were as red as a bull's, staring at me.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqSfHpMlXt
"Jehan, chill," I said, putting my hands up to calm him down. "Let's not try to get angry here."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbM0SVTiyS
"Where are my diamonds, Zoey?" This time he didn't shout but the anger in his voice got me shivering.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6bUDI3Sju
"I don't know. I don't 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1CTHFUlRW
know what's going on right now. This is the same teddy bear you sent us.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrqu9OmUVA
I don't know why it doesn't have diamonds in it."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaflO2T5X0
"How did the diamonds go missing?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiW7nlhlMu
"How am I supposed to 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONEya4klX3
know? I just kept the teddy for you. Maybe you sent me the teddy without1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6TP8YF5mU
diamonds in it and you probably never noticed."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsp5N45amN
"Don't doubt what I do, Zoey! I made sure I made no mistake."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0hoylXVvC
"Okay, chill, I believe you. Look, why don't we try to sort this out calmly? Getting upset won't do us any good."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacL2LQ9toc
Jehan rubbed his 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF53w131weV
forehead and sighed as he leaned back further into his seat. He seemed 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69l5aIWoHi
to have calmed down when he looked at the teddy bear again.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wlXsdyOZt
"I need my diamonds back, Zoey."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZ9u5SUcwW
"I know. You've said that like almost a hundred times now."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWANZv1YiS
"Let's not joke around here. What happened? Why does this bear have no diamonds in it?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSXUrWP3e9
"I didn't do anything. I swear. That teddy was just the way it was eversince you sent it."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfpEwp0olk
"Then why doesn't it have diamonds in it?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QhHxp1hax
"I don't know."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqRiCNivGF
Jehan looked at me with an eyebrow raised. "Who else had this teddy apart from you?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPvS20UgPf
"Ummm," I looked down 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJz5IVjvduc
and played around with my fingers. "Uh....I wasn't the one who had been 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eGVKkkeJ8
taking care of the teddy bear this whole time."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvkAPIdHxN
"What?" Jehan sounded surprised. "What do you mean?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6A9H2w1daj
"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.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWmUz5sZqp
"Who had the teddy bear?" Jehan leaned closer, his eyes not leaving mine.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbcid1rdmf
"Lee had it before I took it from her yesterday."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3g71HQUdH
"Oh, my gosh!" Jehan 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiea2bUdcfD
covered his face with his hands and I could see this wasn't going too 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzAeNorAWg
well for him. "Could she have the diamonds?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DEaIzGvij
"I don't think so. Lee 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFLQE0MRKq
is an honest person. If she did notice there were diamonds in the teddy,1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9cSYIlCtD
she would've said something. No way. She can't have the diamonds."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLZQMilqDG
"Then how do we explain all this! She was the last person to have the teddy, correct?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmvOWttVcl
"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."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVTnnyB388
"Maybe you don't know Lee well enough. If this is the same teddy I had sent, where could the diamonds be?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMR9kKGnqB
"Maybe this is just another teddy bear and the actual one with the diamonds is still at the hotel."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxcbaRpMdB
After I said that, Jehan1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIOGdo2MUM
quickly took the dissected teddy bear in his hands and looked at it 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdtcaLbLKN
carefully. He turned the teddy, looking at its back side and tearing the1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfckS2OQkDi
suit away. I wondered what he was looking for because he had a serious 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZg4q8Tdw4
look on his face.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvLKePYvJa
"You're right," said Jehan. "This is definitely another teddy bear and not the one I sent you."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTsUu7sxWQ
"Wait, how do you know?" I asked.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAOv1lZ1H5
"I remember one of my 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwurxnmlAk1
men who sewed the teddy bear after putting diamonds in it at the back. 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeUhNkWTla
There should have been some stitching here but this one doesn't."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs97gjWXBg7
"Ha!" I snapped my fingers. "I knew I was right!"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FUu73HIZa
"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!"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBawUoR9bV
"Huh? I can't start 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36SbM0f1aX
searching for it now. It would look suspicious. And I can't start asking1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLPxQPJ1eY
Lee if she bought another teddy just like this one. She already knows 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wJZzWXlxD
that the bear is missing."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WYacKX2Fc
"Then maybe, Lee isn't the only person you should be asking."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSBGbF4HZO
"What do you mean?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVYddttZxv
"Someone else must know where the other teddy bear is. Your group members perhaps."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmpgnwnJeU
"No. I highly doubt it. Lee must have bought another teddy and we just didn't know about it."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsEo5htDrP
"Now that, makes no 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVOPazp4aT
sense. If I were you, I would go back and find out what happened to that1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaJPUxWRob
teddy and ask around for it. I'll need that teddy tomorrow."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUL51Wz8Z9c
"Tomorrow! Are you nuts!"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ212ENNZMAY
"Maybe I am because I'm desperate to have those diamonds back."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEykZUjfZl
"I might not be around tomorrow. I have a music video to shoot."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5t7ie5cas
"Find those diamonds and you will be scott free, Zoey. Or do you want everyone to mourn over you when they find you dead?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzC5X3e6vT
I completely forgot that1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvauIHYMDDv
I was being threatened by this guy. Though his threats didn't scare me 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKgVyF7keY
anymore, I just had to abide to everything. Who knows, he might not have1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU24FA2hgoc
me killed, but he could hurt the others and it would be all my fault.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sgXqXjk9a
"Okay. I'll see what I can do."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjDzjdiLf6
Jehan gave me a smile. 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bwQFSxEmE
"That's more I like it. I would start working on this soon if I were 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYHdXJ2wt6
you. Try your best to find the bear by tomorrow, will you?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQ464Untjw
I nodded my head and 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzR9ExCKRnb
that made him smile even more. He soon stood up from his seat and looked1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiopX1jv6JV
down at me. I looked back at him without a saying a word.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHTlKw0tsS
"See you tomorrow," said Jehan and he quickly walked out of the café.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Rvncq01Bf
I sat there as I buried 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLeRYi8otN
my face in my hands, thinking of what to do. Again, everything was 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbuVylsZ3A
ruined. First, the interruption from TOP and Seungri yesterday. Now, the1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSrCpYYAo3
teddy bear had been swapped with another. My life couldn't get any 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kFW5HIEvn
worse than this. What was going on? Who was putting me into so much 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv30hcLfg4p
drama that might just ruin my life?1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhZIeektgO
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.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrA6DLFPQfy
"Zoey, what happened?" Christine asked, as she turned to look on what was on the table.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4B1THi9TKj
I could hear footsteps 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdI6Uialk0
behind me. The others had come in the café too. They all looked worried 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzVbfW6Wxe
when they saw the look on my face.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSsEfSLmvZ
Christine sat where Jehan had been a few minutes ago and looked at the tattered teddy bear on the table.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uOa2upLKm
"What's going on?" Daniel asked. "And what happened to Mr Teddy?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxulYrGMIf
"Jehan didn't look happy when he left the café," said TOP. "Didn't he get his diamonds?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbz0gYX1fn
"No," I answered. "He didn't."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgzrqlSVbU
"What?" Seungri sounded surprised. "What do you mean he didn't get his diamonds?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1BEDVlUIf
"This teddy isn't the teddy he had sent us," I answered. "Someone swapped the teddy with another."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5twUApNi0
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."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOc9CxZ5zem
"And what about Lee?" 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBcrMnEMsO
Christine asked. "She was the one who last had the teddy before Zoey 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOIU33N0rj
took it. But what doesn't make any sense is why she would want to get 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lMHMrvl1H
another teddy when she had asked me last night where Mr Teddy had gone 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLast8I0oKE
to."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dmAin61hl
"This is bad," I said, 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXBdb2SiQm
leaning my elbows on the table and holding my head. "Whoever has the 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPbpGORGJa
teddy, knew what must have been going on this whole time."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuMBHlrqFc
"Ya, but who could have known?" Seungri asked. "It couldn't be Lee because all she knows is that the teddy has gone missing."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0jOWD7jwX
"Maybe Sam has it," said Mike.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOstrdkZxr
We all turned to look at Mike with grim looks on our faces.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOx5KFEc1y
"Sam?" I wondered for a 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3U3oHncPb
little while. "Why would Sam have the teddy? And if she did, how could 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdV5rdytBsV
she have swapped it with the other one?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEEYduliO4
"Okay, wait," said TOP. 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUT3Ja1LWn
"This is all too confusing. Does Sam even have any idea or clue as to 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDEVOf1xOD
what's really going on in the first place?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0WZOagHRy
"I doubt it," I said 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLjCyYlgu7
shaking my head. "If she knew what was going on she would have 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdUz4ypHCA
confronted me. And besides, she was also at the mall yesterday and would1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7Yk57TPZ3
have probably seen Jehan and I together. But she didn't."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqJiyqYrEb
TOP and Seungri looked 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqoaqXuCgV
at each other after I said that. What was up with them? The look they 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdluIppnu9A
gave each other made me feel that something was up but I quickly brushed1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97O8enHki6
it away.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOAiG0LNQZ
"I highly doubt it too,"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSil8ltEko
said Daniel. "If she knew Zoey was into some kind of serious trouble, 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOdmHJtGjq
she would have asked us about it."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfE6YWGEU3Y
"That's true," said 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY24ckCpe0N
Mike. "Come to think of it, I don't think Sam has it. For her to swap 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvvaqpLlkS
the teddy, she would have bought it from somewhere."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuJq7IbkZf
"And I checked out the 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMyCrXYelQ
shopping bags, Lee came with yesterday when she went shopping with Sam. 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkx23SP6Zp
There was no sign of a small teddy in any of them," said Christine.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOS7OFYeck
"She must have bought it when she was with G-Dragon," I said.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3C7OZnEC6O
"No, I highly doubt it,"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpezTIIcJS
said TOP. "There are some dedicated fans who followed those two 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0l4iBFgBRf
yesterday, describing which store they went to and taking pictures. They1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszSzwRpDgl
said nothing about them entering a toy store."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkTkDEkln9
"Now that's what I call a dead end," said Daniel.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfKSKWXkmR
"Fine, so Lee and Sam have been cancelled on the list," said Seungri. "Who else could have swapped the teddies?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yIMZRMGhT
"Collins?" Mike asked.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCPg8KfuKA
"Ha! No way," I said, almost laughing in a such a serious situation. "How could he have known about Jehan and the diamonds?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvU3kJgiyk
"Mmmm, good point," said Seungri. "He's been really busy these past few days."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWwHq3alFN
"But who knows? Maybe he1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoE8IYUcFc
has been spying on me this whole time and I haven't noticed. He 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZkAGRVSND
considers me the black sheep that has to be kept an eye on at all 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNq0LSuxTTw
times."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnmbNFlBWV
"You're definitely the black sheep, Zoey," said Mike.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdszK0Jylo6
"Hey! May I remind you, I'm not the only one here who gets into trouble here."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlM7NhJXuf
"Okay, guys, focus," said TOP. "What makes you think Collins might have been the one who swapped the teddies?"1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDygf8CA1W
Daniel suddenly snapped his fingers. "I remember now. Yesterday when he came back with Sam, something happened."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14ByaYXy2m
"Wait. Collins was with Sam?" I asked.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZDhuMJyhH
"He was the one who went1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyEgmoegk1
to pick her up from the mall," Daniel answered. "Back to what I was 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe75xbrEDyR
saying, Collins had something delivered to him at the hotel. He even 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZigzGGXJdw
went to get it himself from the delivery man who was coming up the 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIZmx8acm3
elevator."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgK0zwpK7h6
"What was it?" We all asked Daniel, looking at him anxiously.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jYHV9yhjs
"It was a small box. And if you ask me, it was kind of like the one Jehan had sent that teddy bear in."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvc2b67dLJs
"Gosh, it's been Collins this whole time," said Christine.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5byof8jFk
"I couldn't be too sure," I said. "But after what Daniel has said, I don't know what to believe."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6nA58EESg
"We really have to go," said Seungri. "We can't stay here."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNL7UUvnc2Q
"You're right," I said 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAiSfEXsLJ
as I stood up from the seat taking my purse. "I've to search for that 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wGRBOSZFH
teddy if I want to make it out alive tomorrow."1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJ2rWC0iyI
"Wait, we can't leave all this here," said Christine, taking what was left of the teddy bear in her hands.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6RtiF2nCg
We all walked out of the1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡak6VIkLA3d
café, hopping no one had heard our conversation. There were a few 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswSuOQVcnP
people in the café and I highly doubt if they really heard anything.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpD9kcjBpn
While I was in the car 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPxcjKtGaN
with Seungri driving and the others in the other car behind us, I was so1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RZn2bqyqF
troubled about the missing teddy. I couldn't help thinking that Collins1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZXbDzE5q6
is involved. But that didn't make any sense. As much as I wanted to 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbVinRAIQt
believe that Collins could have swapped the teddies, I shook my head at 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3SkEit305
the thought of it. Maybe it really wasn't Collins.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQ8gP5up26
If it isn't him, then 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiTtpQvAKA
who? It couldn't be Lee because she had the teddy with her the whole 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwUkanomri
time and she couldn't buy another teddy for no reason. And I couldn't 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8kQkIdtkO
picture Sam doing anything like that either because I had never seen her1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5BNyaeQiJ
near that teddy after Jehan sent it to us that day.1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMC7t8VXyjn
What if I had the wrong 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TXZhigcVP
teddy the whole time and I had never known till now? All this was too 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPuvukSkBS
confusing. Who swapped the teddies? And when did the swapping ever take 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CZP1CbWjK
place without any of us noticing in the first place?1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIJ0eFLBUj
I hope I could be able 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKebjJfymr
to find the teddy soon. Jehan might threaten to kill me, but I was 1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfe4hQP46q
pretty sure he would try to hurt the others too. And I wouldn't let that1074Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3aycMZfY9D
happen.
