Stuck In A K-Pop World: Hitting With A Big Bang (A Black Kitty Series, Book 1) - Chapter 23: Swapped

Zoey's P.O.V950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWd7BK122J

Waking up this Monday 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZabWG4BtB5
morning was hectic. I didn't want to get out of bed, but in one way or 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtrmi2TnL1
another, I would have to. I lay awake, thinking. I didn't want to face 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKQBMyvetv
off the challenges for today knowing that one of them was dealing with 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03immLR6dO
Jehan. Since I still have the teddy bear, I wasn't as free as I expected950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoVDdyT9Hz
myself to be.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3Yo69Y1ea

I couldn't stop 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnUBeWN0qO
wondering what Seungri and TOP were doing at the mall yesterday. As much950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCyYhh3gR5
as I wanted to believe that it was a coincidence, I couldn't help but 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuk81PTZed
feel that something was wrong.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqSK6Tkel8

Could they have known 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQJpYH5SC2
about Jehan? And if they did, then how? I shook my head. Maybe all that 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zNnvlZqM5
was nothing but a coincidence and I was just being paranoid. If they 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRs326Ytre
really had found out about Jehan, they would have been asking questions 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFtRKHJSiI
about him and what he does while we were shopping. But they didn't. We 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57miu8LOVS
just had our usual conversation.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsnQSxoy2G

I brushed off all those 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSr8KJFHVY0
thoughts aside when the alarm on my phone rang telling me to get up. The950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3NqnYqSaJ
last time I had ever put up an alarm was the morning of my last day of 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OEztZCbsi
high school. Eversince I became a musician, I never put up an alarm when950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdA1I2faKmC
I knew I had someone around to wake me up. Like Sam.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeEyfIScDm

But now that she wasn't 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFX0lOJTHEl
here, I had to wake up on my own. Most of the time, I would do so 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKi6eaX2eI5
without her help. But when I overslept, she was always there to wake me.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoc2n8staUt
Anyway, right now, I was just too troubled in my sleep that I must have950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZd60rPEfvd
woken up early before the alarm rang.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCu06VhKHk

I sat up on my bed and 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFQeRMT9Y9
switched off the alarm. I checked the empty bed beside mine and I 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqwiNjE8Gf
couldn't help but realise how much I miss Sam. I don't know why I was 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLys34Br1m
feeling this way, but I hated the fact that I was missing her so bad. 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlAWxsUGUn
Not after what happened yesterday at the mall and all over social media.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ832BpnFVQ8

After seeing her with 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmMTMzgcoY
G-Dragon yesterday broke my heart further into tiny pieces. As much as I950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0PXnVTuGk
knew she was only there just to try and resolve things with G-Dragon, I950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEomRdxS4v1
was filled with fury seeing the two of them together. And to make 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4chuPabg1
matters worse, after I had left the mall, I went online and there were 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMgw5SngTn
pictures of the two everywhere. They were a trending topic for the whole950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX78nV7iulh
day. That left me devastated.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nlOlQjOVJ

I couldn't stop looking 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9UJ3O5RID
at pictures online even when I came back to the hotel. I read so many 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLShWguCZC6
comments. As much as there were so many haters around (like myself), so 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvn62RrwduI
many people couldn't stop talking about how adorable the two looked 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniiSSmBiZg
together. I couldn't help but admit to myself that they were right. They950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XWnYmbAjm
really did make a cute couple. And that left me envious. I wished it 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFO9pERom4
was G-Dragon and I. Not G-Dragon and Sam.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FsyeOMvP1

That sent me boiling to a950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYS7HmlobP
point where I almost threw my phone away. When Christine came to see me950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ujuaeTh40
in my room and found me in an angry fit, I told her how painful I felt 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhk9moM04g
seeing G-Dragon and Sam together.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihPu1Bx8gb

Christine had told me to950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtwyeKLxfO
cool down and that I shouldn't be jealous. She told me that Sam was 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgyBhcItlf
only with G-Dragon because she was only trying to resolve things. I told950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLYLXKKU4V
her that I already knew that. Christine quickly left me to myself when 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSKbfCAoCZ
she realised that she couldn't calm me down. So I was alone for the rest950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyq2U6f1bQ
of the day, not speaking to anyone. I didn't even join the others for 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWCiQkRZqH
supper. I had ordered for my supper to be taken up to my room.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfjqLJJSwQ

And now, I had to face 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKk7hIcuiN
another challenge of seeing everyone today, most especially Sam, since 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBu4Oqu1FG
we have to finish up on the dance routine and start working on the music950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTN08SLuof
video as soon as possible. I have to put up with all this today when I 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmHJLGRYE5
was still so upset.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJjIj2V28f

I quickly got out of bed and went in the showers, hoping the cool water would cool down all the boiling anger in me.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKFy0IlIxn

After I was done, I 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7VCD4pRNJ
quickly dressed up. And carrying my purse with me, I went to meet the 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XIBJMAPCc
others at the dining table for breakfast.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhNlzxqNSh

I found them already 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8FEh0C4In
settled. When I came to sit, everyone mouthed out a "good morning" to 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZo6yfCYL3U
me, except Sam. And I replied back with a smile on my face.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTzAJaYOPr

I felt a little awkward 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuep0wF0OA3
when I looked at Sam who sat across the table next to Collins and hadn't950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1yV42uCef
said a word. She was busy with her breakfast, her usual bacon, eggs and950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJ98jlaaUu
toast with juice. I realised she hadn't even looked up at me once and 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA94FpYj1AS
that also felt weird.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHLatCipGW

I know that she and I 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjnXZGj7Hk
aren't talking to each other at the moment, but I expected her to say a 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzYTElTLXP
"good morning" or even look at me to acknowledge that I was around. She 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fdQVnhZ9U
was one person even if we ever had an argument, she would at least try 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkf1gn4t3vD
to say something to me. The fact that she didn't greet me, made me feel 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpe6YA0D3XQ
like something was wrong.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkwyxhTSwP

I poured myself a cup of950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1tOXAAEjz
coffee, trying to ignore what I was feeling at the moment. I got some 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbleHlsntw
slices of toast and ate my breakfast.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjh9juWxaMQ

"Hey, Sam," said Mike, who sat right next to her. "Have you seen what people have been saying about you and G-Dragon?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQT8V00PSMh

My heart almost skipped a950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpR9z0APzhW
beat and I almost choked on my coffee. What was Mike getting at? I know950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdz6mqhYlu
he does things just to annoy me sometimes, but this time, he's gone way950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofMFBXoISp
too far. I was over here! Hello!950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQJsXwYPVt

"You don't have to remind me," Sam said as she looked at her brother. "I've decided not to go online today."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7p0KQBTkm1

"For one who doesn't like attention, you might just disappear off the face of the earth," said Collins.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgttM5MZnvh

"I can do that," said Sam, staring up at the ceiling obviously building castles in the air.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnR091AXkCx

"I have no doubt about it."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6DYb1H1pl

"But I don't see why you950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3a64HeF7Ps
have to," said Daniel. "Just because people make stories about you and 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVA166KSBA
G-Dragon dating, doesn't mean that you are."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbx8WXKcTUA

"One thing about fans is950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVXM7UCJbf
that they can make a story so believable, even those who don't know 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DUzdTSZeJ
what's going on, might end up believing it," said Christine.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kAtioUsOB

"I know," said Lee. 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfwodurI2K
"Right now, some k-pop news sites are already taking this to the next 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdA4iwochx
level. But they all say they couldn't be too sure about it until they 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eZvA1CFq9
get an official statement from you and G-Dragon."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBegyES4BT

"Wow, that's serious," said Sam.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4HTDFatQj

"But right now, we have no time for interviews," said Collins. "We have a music video to work on."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdnugywvN5

"I can work with that," said Sam, with a smile on her face.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoburDjNM9

"Alright, guys, finish your breakfast. You know the drill."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEE4PPLMum2

"Aye, aye," said Daniel.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGb3kTM1Nc7

"Well, you're quiet today, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me. She sat directly across from me on the table.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusjGLgWDdO

"Do you have a problem with that?" I asked, eyeing Christine.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYp0zJys6TV

"You're just too quiet, that's all."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqooTHkzKbv

"You should be quiet more often," said Collins as he got up from the table. "It kind of suits you."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhH7qyh4gVS

I frowned at Collins. "Thanks. I'll try doing so more often. That's if I really want to."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqGeuHrdVk

"Now that's the Zoey I know," said Mike, raising his eyebrow at me and smiling.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1tMZimhho

I stuck my tongue out at950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUTDCwrbKj
him but he continued to smile mockingly nonetheless. I noticed that the950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5EKwvIc9U
others were laughing and smiling at the whole thing, except Sam. She 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzg4ZsUGVsS
still wasn't looking in my direction.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0ZoZOYMwg

Soon after breakfast, we950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadNOD0AyRx
left for YG. In the SUV, Sam sat at the back with her brothers. We were950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SEOjxq6am
all chatting happily in the car but she was quiet the whole way. She 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgimLuOPBTY
was like that nowadays, always lost in thought. I wondered what she 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBZ8n3qRZq
could be thinking about. Sam was one person who never really shared what950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBh4udN9iD
she thought. When you asked her about it, she would usually say 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfb1r0iLTX
"nothing" and say no more. But if she really wanted to share with you, 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdouhUzpys
she would.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfpMgysCXl

We arrived at YG and we 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCuHl32w4U
found ourselves back at the dance studio we were practising in on 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lfIe8B9BQ
Saturday. We found our dance instructor and all the BigBang members with950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSZt2wiN1O
the rest of the backup dancers, waiting for us.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxjMJvYSC3

When everyone was 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKkydVmUp4
exchanging greetings with each other, G-Dragon didn't respond to me when950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLscrFLepr
I said "hi" to him. Given with what happened yesterday, I bet he was 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lsDNUSNPM
still mad at me for how I behaved towards Sam. He didn't even want to 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdvcxcTYBi
hang out with us soon after Sam had left.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgvbYeTnab

He not responding to me 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnz1aAddTQb
felt awkward and I longed for him to at least give me some attention. He950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMq0BoV6rb
didn't say "hi" to Sam either but just nodded his head when she greeted950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5wkNKhCPR
him. At least that was acknowledging someone even if they weren't 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrROfPSfFs
talking to each other. And he was staring at her the whole time even 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4827V0c5je
when she wasn't looking. I thought of throwing a shoe at him, but I just950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1XvYVDRxn
looked away instead.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCeiiAU6id

We went straight to 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWQrtfzN5Z
practising for almost a good five hours. And those proved to be the 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ak4TDoih0
hardest five hours of my life. Since the dance routine starts with 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tgKgg1K8Q
G-Dragon and I, it was really hard having him so close. I realised that I950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENEYlAXNBf
still had feelings for him. At some point during practise, I almost 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXRAjxOHPB
hugged him, but I brought myself not to. And that wasn't the worst part.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKnn34lHWz

During pratice, I 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFEErQkeko
noticed that G-Dragon still couldn't take his eyes off Sam. This was 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oHucHUD5f
getting to the point where I wanted to scream at him to snap out of it. I950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZE3QA0X4t
wondered what he saw in Sam and that sent me thinking.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrMe0nyuFv

G-Dragon wasn't the only950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZfvckl5lp
one who liked Sam. Come to think of it, Daesung also liked her. 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3imz8favF
Probably even Seungri and TOP, given that Seungri had a beautiful crown 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiXThOC0Nb
made just for her and TOP flirts with her whenever he gets the chance 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeCo3f5AV1
to. Taeyang already had Hyo-rin and always takes Sam like a sister. What950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjjVty5B4o
did Sam have that even most of the BigBang members like her so much?950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cHGZ7h00Q

As her best friend, I 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJFeZcdv7l
should be aware of her qualities. She was nice and friendly to whoever 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFnKLhdqKR
approached her. She is very pretty and had a great body, though she was 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTif4zNbP5r
never ever fully aware of her physical beauty. She always thought she 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUXkqAi75p
was like any other ordinary girl but she was more than that.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopCM0Ba6eN

She is also smart, 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0zVWZdPhh
caring and always understanding. She is a great leader and one who 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7gqM9S5EG
always had our backs whenever we needed it. I don't know how many times 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpa8DtItnSC
she had always tried to get The Toxins out of trouble. I agree that even950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHA7BWwRCSL
if it looked like we don't appreciate what she does, we really do.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWG7OKLKF3w

Sam has a lot of good 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojZULRqS4B
qualities. Maybe that's why she is liked and loved by everyone. Even her950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSO3jXGoAbi
fans. She is honest, when she wanted to. She is also a pretty good 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAsPfZ8x3y
liar, only when it was necessary to do so. And she is one who wouldn't 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWXHfwGt28
want to hurt anyone around her.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vYzYXcMvy

Realising this made me 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SwvNfed82
feel a little guilty as I looked at Sam who was dancing in front of me 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTV8BNSYau
with Taeyang beside her. I looked at her face and she had this smile 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKio89QYLg
that reflected her innocence. I realised that I had been giving Sam a 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyOEV5H9TJ
real hard time after I found out G-Dragon likes her and not me. She is 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KpPW7z3ki
my best friend and would do nothing to hurt me. I know she was only 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSG8oJTKGr
looking out for me like she always does, but I am just too ignorant to 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0VzdHMygv
realise it till now.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuR49PRzgHm

"Wait, hold on a minute guys," said the choreographer. We all stopped dancing as instructed.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgF6DAtjmuM

"Zoey, you aren't 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVHvZAmikM
concentrating," said the choreographer as he looked at me. "This is the 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AUFK5UUVd
second time you have made the same mistake."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyGFMJ5B3g

"Oh, sorry," I said, scratching the back of my head feeling embarrassed. "I'll try to be more cautious next time."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLg8ju9kVs

"Okay. Let's continue from where we left off."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2kU9eawGM

It was lunch the time we950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclkBeIH87s
broke off for a break. The choreographer left and the others were 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEhZ85RAOA
talking to some of the backup dancers. I noticed Sam at the corner of 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYMulF7mUA
the room with Christine and some of the backup dancers talking. It 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8EKjfJl4F
looked like they were having one hell of a funny conversation because 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsTNf0guIi
they were all laughing.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8DUCHc7kg

"Hey, why are you here all alone?" came TOP as he came to stand right next to me.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwysAWQG8UG

"Nothing," I replied, looking down at my sneakers. "I just want to be alone today."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjxN7ekz9I

"Still not talking to Sam?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsSYiiZHsk

"Nope."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakEZwkPOmE

TOP's lips rose to a smile. "You really are stubborn."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9owU62nNMb

"Too bad it's in my DNA." I smirked.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeI3WSW4MrG

"And how long do you think you're going to put up with it?" TOP folded his arms as he looked at me.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2FEBYdtnB

"Maybe till we go home." I shrugged my shoulders.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNs8O67Q7Xg

"I doubt it. Judging by the way you performed today, you looked really preoccupied that you made several mistakes."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjH7iSXy8xi

"Being preoccupied is Sam's thing."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hwzHu6Imf

"I know. But you aren't 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvpE9QKK5y
yourself, that's for sure. The Zoey I know wouldn't be here all alone. 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcuFaOn1G9
You would be chit chatting like you always do."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeijO6YXvP

"What if I just want to be alone for today?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cO9uIV9iy

"It's okay. Everyone has those kinds of days. But you make it look like being alone sometimes is a bad thing."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡml8za7kKmo

I frowned. "Why?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3BQUZYj4t

"Because you look miserable."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSB3zikVDqS

I didn't expect that coming from TOP. My mouth was agape as I looked at him.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo29K9nmHgn

"Miserable!"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGjTzojpPB

"Ya." TOP nodded his head. "It clearly shows."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxTAzT9GDC

I thought for a moment 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tnWKo9O0Z
and went back to looking at Sam and Christine with the backup dancers. 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVj3tfuo1g4
Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel had also formed their own little 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsGAuSpLgR
circle and were laughing and chatting too. Taeyang and G-Dragon were 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtz4R8wrlM
with some of the backup dancers, having a normal chat.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtacVbdYex

Seeing all this in front950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WmjPwECtu
of me made me realise that TOP is right. I am definitely miserable. By 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAlpGZKVYp
now, I would be with the others, chatting. But here I was, all alone. 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bav654duz
Until TOP came to talk to me.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhfZ29GNRY

"I guess you're right," I said. "I am miserable."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7TGnYe05z

"Don't worry about it. Aren't you going to resolve things with Sam?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmA95PvOdJ

"I don't know," I said 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBS1ygSOokx
as I looked at Sam who was laughing out loud. "I'm still mad at her, but950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvM1UAVIxps
something in me says that I can't stay like this for long."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSSIhE2ltd

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.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuhbNlb4nm

"I felt so bad about it," I said, shaking my head.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfroHMnPIS

"Then why don't you talk to her?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOZPRAFizM

"Pfft!" I rolled my eyes. "Why should I? Sam always does all the talking."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUALY8oIBM

"Really? You think Sam would do that this time around? Besides, she wasn't really at fault with all this."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfajMr0r9Xi

"I know."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5Dzri0mhU

"So? Are you going to try and talk to her yourself?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQJCdq169l

"I'll think about it."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6OVwEMd0r

"Hey, guys," came Seungri, suddenly calling out to everyone in the room. "Who wants pizza?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVlOaXZpc7

Everyone muttered out "me!" really loud. Seungri smiled and said he would bring the pizza.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzB4P9vaLG

"Mind if you guys can help me?" Seungri asked as he came up to TOP and I.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Dv7KqD4eU

"Sure," I said. I really needed to get out of here for a while and breathe.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyWhO69heG

The three of us went out950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhk54XxNdy
of the room and headed to the elevator to take us downstairs. Seungri 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMHN5zcHP3
already had his phone out calling the pizza parlour to take the order.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡss3OjdnaZr

As soon as we reached the ground floor, we stuck around in the lobby waiting for the pizza.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIFTq7Wmuq

"I'm so hungry," said Seungri, staring at his watch.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡled92hYRBv

"Chill, you just ordered950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MQI0aBNZB
pizza like right now," said TOP who was sitting right next to me on one950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUVFSCUKPm
of the chairs in the waiting area of the lobby.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgO5mWEkK48

"But I'm so hungry."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtdnXc0Fqp

"Trust me, you aren't 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HZqcutpRA
the only one," I said as I looked at Seungri who was still standing. 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WShWwPIqy
"Sit down or else you're going to drain the last remaining blood you 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUIWFp6Ilf
have."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTK56GdorSV

"Well, that's mean," said Seungri as he sat next to me. "What's up with you?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtIvw2hJeN

"Nothing," I said as I folded my arms.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyP8DguAt4n

"She's cranky, don't mind her," said TOP.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJc28XVOeR

"I'm not cranky. Just having an awful day."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8DnzQzzji

"Ya, we can see that," said Seungri with a smirk on his face.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWHMZYxQVe

I didn't say anything as950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKBsF7Fjnf
I shook my head. All of the sudden, I felt my phone vibrate against my 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6UGoaCMNZ
thigh in the pocket of my sweat pants. I took out my phone. Jehan was 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD12dE17ZDm
calling.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwa1iV8O3e

"Isn't it that French guy we met yesterday at the mall?" TOP asked, looking at my phone screen.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGw36o3ZFx9

"Can you please not look!" I said as I turned the phone screen away from TOP's eyes.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVhv5zn6NE

"Okay, well you better answer that call."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGeVvOfgx3

I stood from the chair and answered Jehan's call when I was a few feet away from the two.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxFV9mL4wn

"Hello," I answered.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYUKlYRyMA

"Hey, Zoey," said Jehan. "Are you busy today?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdeKOcWau9

"Ya, I'm very busy," I answered. "Why?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzPSniJ8sH

"We have to meet today, ASAP."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaL9KMaGXVY

"But I can't. I have a lot to do today and I don't think I'll manage to meet with you."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQIimcAMTY

"I don't care. I need that teddy bear today. Not tomorrow, but today."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMDtITog9w

I knew Jehan was going 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8ve0IjMW3
to call and demand for the teddy bear. Luckily, I carried my purse with 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkDUwZoyqO
the teddy bear in it. I hadn't removed it from my purse since yesterday 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdSTkPTzi9
and I checked to see if it was still in there this morning. The purse 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EnKk5zgtq
was upstairs in the dance studio.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLLLxNu9Rq

"Okay, what time do you want to get the teddy bear?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGglASoAcB

"I'm coming to YG to get it."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctYPkzlrNZ

"What!" I was horrified and equally surprised. "No way. You can't come here."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtPT2seQUJ

"Fine. If you have a better idea, then call me or text in the next thirty minutes. I have to get that teddy today."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWBikZQtIm

"You don't have to remind me," I snarled.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IlfB36f9O

He cut the call and I 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOa3HzHCcT
looked at my phone like I was ready to throw it out of the lobby through950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XXoa44Yvd
the open entrance doors. This was bad. Real bad. He wanted to come here950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvY3S95hWk
to get the teddy. That was going to be dangerous. If anyone were to see950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2DiCfYITH
him they would start to ask questions.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdgOdsUJWt

"Zoey," came Seungri's voice behind me.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp26IPVCedq

I turned around and there stood Seungri and TOP staring at me.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0crbfRCnp

"What?" I asked.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4TB767Run

"Was that Jehan you were talking to?" TOP asked.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpd8vFiXmvT

"Um, ya. Is there a problem?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9AyRxrzKBD

"You two didn't seem to be having a normal conversation," said Seungri. "It sounded like you were arguing or something."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTEpQEjEDa

"Arguing? Pfft. No," I gave out a small laugh trying to hide my fear. "It was just some silly misunderstanding."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctubbUNaND

"Come on, Zoey," said TOP. "That was no ordinary misunderstanding and I know an argument when I see one."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBk31wmyaAO

"Guys, it's nothing. You're worrying for no reason."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HSzw7mKEW

"Oh, ya? Then why were you talking about that teddy bear then? It's that small cute teddy he had sent you, right?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKMWzMwOco

Dang it! I was cornered 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEqdIDhwvu
now. They had heard about the teddy. I couldn't come up with a lie. If 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBcvlerDhu
anything, I'm a terrible liar. Looks like the truth will always come to 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQc7BQoNFi
light no matter how much you try to hide it.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlvKHcnRoC

"Tell us, Zoey," said Seungri softly. "It can show on your face that something is wrong."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAUY2go7QY

I sighed as I looked down on the floor. "Fine. But don't tell anyone."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKuZHOEM6W

"Okay. Now tell us what's going on," said TOP.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwQeJFJwZA

We went back to settle down on the chairs. We were at a reasonable distance away from the receptionist so I could talk quietly.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWg02QaLPR

I told them everything 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqF0H3jz3Uz
from what happened in Paris till now. They listened carefully and hadn't950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1IiUIkNHN
said a word until I finished the whole story.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLspfv7Q3y

"Have you told anyone about all this?" Seungri asked.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqkkOTGyFO

"Just you two," I answered.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85PKfjKadH

"Wow, this is serious," said TOP, trying to take it all in. "He's a diamond smuggler?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmGHzsLzED

"Surprising, right?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HhvTSYSK5

"He seemed so nice when we met him," said Seungri.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVds385pwn

"We should involve the police," said TOP.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCJ9yWCMzf

"No! We can't!"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXuj2jtqaa

"Why?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIx2q5qW7Q2

"You know word goes out 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmeFPROong
fast. The next thing we know, it's going to be all over social media and950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPO4oSgEPe
might give The Toxins a bad name. I would rather do this quietly."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEbAcW3tSC

"And how are you so sure he isn't going to use you again?" Seungri asked.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cDG6WZA3V

"He assured me that this950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPVPFbWLfX
will be the last time he will ever use me to do any of his dirty 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzbY7H9jPC
business. I just have to give him the teddy bear and that's it."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YBFSo7G5n

"Give who the teddy bear?" came Christine's voice.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AoPqF4s7v

The three of us turned 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2z1NetOaL2
and we saw Christine standing a few feet away from us. We hadn't heard 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQTCrz2ArE
the elevator doors open nor her footsteps. How did she get here unheard?950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJwKdYfHjr

"Christine, you're here?" I raised my eyebrows.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5WhWdG1ou

"Ya, I came to check up on you guys since some of us are really hungry," said Christine.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssiQAItLeO

"The delivery guy hasn't arrived yet," said Seungri with a smile.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFg3d5SHWK

"What's this about some guy and a teddy bear?" Christine asked as she looked at me.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4UxAbOJkt

"Ummm, it's nothing, Christine," I said, waving my hand in the air. "Just talking about some random stuff."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYxY14HvAk

"Random stuff involving a950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjcn1nvTy4
teddy bear?" Christine shook her head at me as she folded her arms. "I 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ksTiTiNNx
clearly heard you talking about giving some guy a teddy bear and that 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kYFlwHEtb
you won't have to do his dirty business anymore. I know you're hiding 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡev7yBz0abT
something from me, Zoey. So you better start talking."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9gMhOd6XF

I rolled my eyes and sighed so loud in frustration. How many people was I going to tell the truth to today?950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUC4c9gGxB0

"Fine," I said, looking at Christine. "But please don't tell anyone about this."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNi1cROP7FI

"Okay, I won't."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tZvMEBvoz

"Sit down."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBrUoO9BLt

Christine sat right next to TOP and she looked at me with anticipation.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnWXqy9wIO

"I got myself into trouble," I started.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvJ4PkjQ1D

"Great!" Christine threw her arms in the air. "What did you do now, Zoey?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0oTLzBYLT

"I got involved with a diamond smuggler."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3INR7B9c1

Christine's face soon 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiOqYVYcyz
drained of colour and she looked as white as a ghost. She tried to open 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7E4INTs3O5
her mouth to say something but she couldn't. Until....950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlboIciHuJn

"What!"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyez0Ygzy0z

TOP quickly covered up 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEbu6CfQSQ
her mouth before she could shout out anything else. The receptionist 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9i3xF9aNb
looked our way and soon went back to work. When he was sure she had 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxZzbFeaz0
cooled down, TOP removed his hand from Christine's mouth.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNknTaUCWx

"Are you cool now?" TOP asked.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvzrCLbZgB

"Cool?" asked Christine, sounding anxious. "I come here and hear about some diamond smuggler. How can I be cool?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbRb7bv7we

"I know you're really mad at me right now, but you asked what was going on," I said, looking apologetically at her.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfe6bmwxm0

"Of course I'm mad!" 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7MFFHHPar
Christine whispered angrily at me. "I know you always get in trouble, 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQmGw0ORgL
but this by far is the worst one of them all."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTu765O0Fl5

"At least it's not a drug dealer," I said shrugging my shoulders.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAFvGkbJKG

"Is there a difference? Seriously, Zoey. How the heck did this happen?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0gB3ciy3o

"It happened in Paris," I said. "Remember the guy I introduced you to at the fashion show?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNLRWDRMAa

"Ya, I remember. What about him?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJvcrNre6D

"He's the diamond smuggler," said TOP.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XoRfAmhW7

"WHAT!"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdLBOdRZdN

"Ssh!" TOP, Seungri and I hushed at her at the same time, putting our fingers on our lips.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3E3V8RYtbo

"Guys, I can't help it, sorry," said Christine. "Wait, that handsome guy is the diamond smuggler?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7EOtsxZPX

"And the one I met at the café," I said.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4VHZf8c76

"So he is the one who sent us the teddy bear?" Christine asked.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lEEaVEZLY

"Yes," the three of us answered at the same time.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMzloXuoHk

"But why does he want the teddy bear back?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4XTpIdH67

"Because the teddy has diamonds in it," said Seungri.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3Z3PIE3et

"Wow, seriously?" Christine's eyes bulged out with surprise.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74hFQeWFuY

"Ya," I said. "I planned950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncycW8EkMH
on giving him the teddy bear yesterday but I couldn't because these 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuTsRn1HlF
guys showed up." I pointed at Seungri and TOP with my two thumbs.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgATLtOJknF

"So you're the one who 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8X6AVlt0l2
got the teddy from our room yesterday," said Christine. "Lee was 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGGwr1wQ6Q
searching for it and couldn't find it. She thought she must have 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Hwzy7jdSR
misplaced it somewhere. You even went to meet him? I thought you went 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAzzL9ql20
out with Seungri."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVm0VkMi7fk

"I lied."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zAKeKJKe5

Christine shook her head. "I knew something was up. You are really not good at lying."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzoQIbHr4O

"I know." I gave Christine a grim look, not feeling impressed about myself at all.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9M7w4rqTv

"Why didn't you tell us you were being threatened by this guy?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpk0HgdHJkQ

"I wasn't supposed to. And besides, it was too dangerous. He threatened me with a gun in Paris not to tell anyone."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewM3G0dytz

"That's great. There are guns too. Blackmail would have been so much better."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUmHCk3Qa7

"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."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDs7TmKUtpk

"Then why didn't you let him?" Christine asked.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOOHyFVKpa

"That was going to raise a lot of questions if anyone saw him," said Seungri.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsjhPj2zd3

"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."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZmu64FgmK

"He said I should have a location as to where we meet," I said. "And I haven't thought of anything yet."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KQsRisXJp

"Why don't you meet after practice?" TOP suggested.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1I5LghwCT

"But where?" I asked.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylGYi6zdtW

"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.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJakhdbIKYu

"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.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxIf5uxAe7

"Fine, but remember, don't tell anyone," I said.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55I1EyN5B3

"Got it," said TOP and Seungri at the same time. Christine nodded her head.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡva3hN8Ifg8

I took my phone out and 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1P4Ez5SPpo
texted Jehan that we should meet at the café after practise some time in950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3RCJsNM96
the evening. He replied saying that he would be there.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OGQqmCxzm

"Okay, it's settled," I said as I put my phone back in my pocket.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzShzNrtAA

"Yay! The pizza is here," said Seungri as he stood up and approached the pizza delivery man coming in through the entrance.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakh0GDTHT0

Seungri had ordered ten 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMPw3VVkKp
large sized boxes of pizza, enough for everyone upstairs. And the 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsC5UpL8ti6
flavour, mac and cheese. Sam's favourite. Well, almost everyone's 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfm8ubwECo
favourite.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoX0rK0cCQ

We helped Seungri with the pizza and went to the elevator which took us back up to the floor of the dance studio.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1slpBCeUME

"When all of this is over, Zoey, you're going to get a scolding from me," said Christine, as we walked down the hall.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHBaESdjhP

"I'll be ready for 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFPe5Rnqp5
that," I said as I rolled my eyes. "I just can't wait to have everything950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDtx0ntGly
back to the way they were. Before all the threatening."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSyVy724wG

"No, they won't," said Seungri. "You still have Sam to resolve things with."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6Ugy3VaTM

"And G-Dragon," TOP added.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxJ0PeXLPJ

"Can we please not talk about that?" I asked. "You don't have to remind me all the time."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AGlO2yrPn

"Well, someone has to," said Christine.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUR1k8y2mv

"Just so you know, I'll agree to resolve things on my own terms."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvlJmzkU65

"Jeez," said Christine, rolling her eyes at me. "When you say that, I have to get ready for the unexpected."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUt8NM34UU

We found ourselves back 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fzeZlDqzJ
at the studio and this time, I found Sam talking to Taeyang. G-Dragon 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcilLvI3Gr1
was still talking to some of the back up dancers and I could see him 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqz8Dyz0Fp3
staring at Sam through the corner of his eye. Or was that me being 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhYWr3wYaB
paranoid?950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVgq1VfbBc

Christine snapped her fingers right in front of me and I turned to look at her.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxBPrl2ztO

"What?" I asked.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9oMSCRTHP

"You were frowning," Christine answered.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesud0uOltR

"Frowning? I wasn't frowning."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TktxWW6Wb

"Says the person who 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBTG0klkuh
couldn't stand seeing G-Dragon looking at someone else." Christine gave 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29sISimQ5i
me a smirk and left me standing all alone by the door, while she joined 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZAwZrFl4i
the others who had soon formed a circle around Seungri and TOP.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yHmkYkOfa

Soon after lunch, we 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIi7d1oFbj
went straight back to practising. This time, for a good six hours. We 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYHwBYLT8P
had to do the dance routine over and over again to perfect it. This time950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcowxtD3VLp
around, I made sure not to make any mistake like I had been doing 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLIT0m7OC6
earlier. This time, everything was coming out perfectly and I don't know950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQgaxUEsQN
how many times we had to do the routine all over again. But despite the950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6sDlvqRJm
number of times we did it again, we had a whole lot of fun.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFAth4ZJi9

At some point in the 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGz7kWdaAkx
afternoon, our two managers and Lee came over to check on us and they 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxhfswA0w3
were really impressed. Yang Hyun-suk thought filming the dance practise 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CkKLbyTup
will be helpful and that they would release it after the music video. 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShK9ndRheQ
The dance practise was shot and it came out perfect, but still, we went 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSS1GpLeDv
back to practising until we could pratice no more.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAMybYXFku

It was five and the sun 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVM0sXoGaN6
was setting when we were finally done for the day. I was so tired that I950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8A2rTNwam
was lying on the floor. My body aching everywhere. Luckily, I wasn't 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaMKV16QZh
the only one on the floor. Christine and Daniel were lying on either 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJWtOnYe4O
side of me. We were all pretty tired.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJGPxJmwuk

The choreographer had already left and the backup dancers also started to leave. G-Dragon and Taeyang left together.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNaCAUCP1I

While I was resting and 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwn7SeQonT
gathering up any ounce of energy I had left, Seungri was standing next 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tGNrLJGgT
to my head and looking down on me. I looked up at him with a puzzled 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOR236CQ0v6
look on my face.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFM8foBenau

"Get up, Zoey, we gotta go," he said.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrKERxWdhn

"Go? Go where?" I asked.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvqquutk5L

Christine roughly nudged me on my side with her elbow, I looked at her with a whining look on my face.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMn3sREvQFk

"Ouch, that hurt!" I said.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeC1AmSWBU

"Are you forgetting, Zoey?" Christine asked, raising her eyebrows. "We have to go somewhere to do something."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyLVeSpGd0

It was then that I remembered that I was supposed to meet Jehan at the café. I totally forgot.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PpdrL0iAj

"Oh, ya!" I quickly sat up on the floor and Christine followed. "We have to go."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WIthdRQLU

"Go where?" Daniel asked, still lying down on the floor and looking at us.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIi6lBoS6vI

"No where," I answered quickly. "We're just planning on going around the city for a drive."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡth5JarnNdU

"I want to follow too," said Daniel.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyL2V9EiPSt

"Where did you say you were going?" came Mike who had been talking with Sam and Daesung.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TSuCVKeUe

I rolled my eyes. Seriously? The last thing I want is for everyone to follow and find out what's going on.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pZK8WXvG6

"It's nothing really," said TOP. "We were planning to drive around the city. You don't have to follow."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfKxPs7mm7

"But this is not fair," said Daniel, sitting up quickly. "I also want to come along."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmSkgxIFVm

"Ya, me too," said Mike.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcq8fROZ9mx

"Why don't you want 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVdvZAKeme
these guys to go along?" Sam asked. I noticed that she still wasn't 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNE9LrgPpB
looking at me. "You're just going for a drive. I see no reason for them 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6nslAZ61U
not to follow."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt69vR4m0kw

I wanted to protest and 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzeehiFMmw
refuse but then I realised that I wasn't supposed to talk to Sam. And 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMeZYWHOkg
refusing her was going to be pointless because I already know Seungri 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IYHWIOyWw
and TOP weren't going to deny her so easily.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWRAWd2Tjt

"Okay, they can come along," said Seungri.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5ButdW4Oc

Dang it!950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJM3AMnWRA

"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.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQ8zmF9xXa

"I can take you back to the hotel if you want," said Daesung, addressing Sam.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfTM5Ld0Qs

"Thanks, that's nice of 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLabbwkUwV
you, Daesung," said Sam giving him a sweet smile. She turned to look at 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARoKB4axKT
the others. "Have fun you, guys."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeJO7J4w3x

Sam and Daesung left the950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYV2GyyaEz
room together and I couldn't help but look at the door and think to 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaUPlBT840
myself that the two also made a nice pair.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5FLziXZzH

"So, where are we going?" Mike asked.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbbbUKsbeU

"Please, don't ask any questions," I said as I turned to face him. "It's none of your business."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHZkstPXHn

"Mmm, seeing the look on your face, something's up," said Daniel.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxMl3C8uiR

Christine stood up from 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1Km9vkVWl
the floor and said, "look guys, if we tell, you have to promise not to 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUmoQJfjHY
tell anyone. Not even Sam. No one."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CLyniMXv5

I looked up at her with my eyebrow raised. "Are you seriously going to tell them?" I asked.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8tuiU810S

"Do I have a choice? You know how persistent these two are and they are probably going to find out anyway."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMUp4V2tFg

"Ya, Christine's right," said Seungri. "And we also couldn't refuse Sam for them to come along."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5nt6pQ1eb

"You just couldn't refuse because you like her too much," I said, turning to face Seungri.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtQRTwDsgx

Seungri shrugged and smiled. "What can I say? I've to obey the lovely queen, right?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiNCGh9Hlk

I almost snapped back at him but I controlled myself and looked away.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNV19lVwoFJ

"Okay, can we focus on telling us what's going on?" Daniel asked.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqq5bJZF7hH

"Fine," I said. "Someone tell them. I can't keep repeating myself with all this."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNxnKlD0f9

TOP told Mike and Daniel what was going on. The two brothers were shocked after what they heard.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1riCEbaEn

"Oooh, you're in a lot of trouble now, Zoey," said Mike, looking at me and shaking his head.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBON6u5XtaU

"You don't have to remind me," I said rolling my eyes.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJIDyzi7Ga

"I can't believe that guy is the diamond smuggler," said Daniel.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDSsnouV72

"I know," said Christine.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLaTS1UGh3

"You haven't told Sam about this?" Mike asked.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiLp6GlQaO

"No. No one has to know," I said. "Not even the police."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7XMKaprJ2

"I think you should have told Sam," said Daniel.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZd9hsXBl1S

"So that she can judge me? No way."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxiEar6Ggi

"You know Sam can never do that," said Seungri. "She would have helped in any way possible."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUnlSNmoz5

"Don't try to convince 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNK4MxTYz7p
her of anything," said Christine. "She probably won't listen like she 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadwRCTHXgG
always does." I raised an eyebrow at Christine and she looked back at me950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGAo4tsciN
like she could hit me with a hammer.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSALKgrmEHg

"Okay, let's go," said TOP.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItNPglMM46

I got up from the floor 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJC1Xk8ZHL
with Daniel and I took my purse. We soon left the room and headed 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlxAoFISEF
downstairs. Sam and Daesung had already left since there was no sign of 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92iYW0i0rK
Daesung's car in the parking lot. Christine and I went with Seungri in 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmmFqUBagk
his car while Daniel and Mike went in TOP's car.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaN2EPFi28N

The cars soon left the 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1M7YmMCpo
YG premises and in the car, I couldn't help but feel nervous. What if 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflstuz8RRs
things didn't work out like it did yesterday? I hope not. Every now and 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAM6tzWuzA
then, I would open and check if the teddy bear was still in my purse.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrByix4ICMy

"Can you you please stop950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkU65qeSmoQ
doing that?" Christine asked from the back seat. "You might just drop 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJizvhUFXBV
the teddy and lose it in the car."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqISkilbwsS

"Stop joking around," I said as I turned to look at Christine.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWeluGDeg2

"Well, then stop getting nervous. We're all here with you so there is nothing to be worried about."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDd93JLL13W

I leaned back on the chair and tried to relax. "You're right," I said. "I need to relax."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEN8uDeCpBr

"Don't worry, we're almost there," said Seungri as the car took a turn.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTK8QuXGj4

"I just want to get this over with."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZ7OQk7LRx

We were soon packed 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLXojVgqob
right outside the café and TOP's car parked right next to us. I took a 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3HuTzlFm8
deep breath. Christine came over and put her hand on my shoulder. I 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WOvZYT2Wv
turned to look at her.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDe1i933FqX

"Everything is going to be okay," said Christine giving me an encouraging smile. "If anything happens, we'll be here."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaD9wXALOK0

"Thanks," I said with a smile. "I'm glad you guys are all here."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdglrVOIWmC

Seungri also turned to 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPoLwHB9wK
smile at me. I don't know what I would have done without them. Their 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzmxkY41VM
presence here gave me a little comfort. But I felt a small hole in my 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYvrivxdNc
chest and I wished Sam was here too.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWYgz2H4Hw

I soon got out of the 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYACRfkNem6
car and there was a sudden chill in the air. Maybe it's because the sun 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4dMVbTkHl
was setting that it started to get cold. I had my purse in my hand and I950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcikP3RpMv9
looked towards the café. I hope everything will go as planned.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0a7kTfoe7G

Before I could find my 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jfFzJafdX
way into the café, TOP, Mike and Daniel waved at me through the windows 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7qe6cciq2
of TOP's car and giving me a thumbs up. I smiled a little and waved 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbazCTjBItF
back. At least that gave me the confidence to go ahead.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3khN4cssb

I quickly went in the 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sKRv1lVg3
café and when I slowly stepped in, I looked around for Jehan. I spotted 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclN6ffbrvT
him right next to the huge glass window where we had last sat down 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Y3kRQhnc1
together. He was alone in his smart pressed black suit, as always.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMhdFAGenQ

I slowly approached the 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8VvlFE3js
table. His eyes never left me since I walked in the café. When I got to 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmPfRFTLR4
the table, I sat facing him. My heart was beating so fast. I don't know 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTst8Ena7ew
why I was so scared that things might go wrong and Jehan wouldn't 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HDyZaij3Y
hesitate to end my life right here.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgVBtznL88

"I'm glad you could make it," said Jehan. "I was almost about to call my driver to come pick you up."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMvwkOjeA5

"I was practising today," I answered.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPUnUYH7Wl

"You look really tired. It could show all over your face."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9clvcNUwz

"Thanks," I frowned at 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN16A0nxxD5
him. "Can we get this over with? I still have a busy day tomorrow and I 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZ6Mv8T8er
would like to get this teddy bear off my back."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvzbRCTdHt

Jehan smirked. "Certainly."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeC3CyxjFDn

I quickly reached out 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUgHzL9wOu
for the purse on my lap, opened it and gave him the teddy bear. Jehan 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGmWLbiVjC
reached out to take it and I couldn't help but feel relieved.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63todtb7t3

"There! You have your teddy," I said. "Can I go now?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9VWRGSK7e

"Wait." Jehan held up a finger when I was just about to stand up and leave. I sighed.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl91zBdLEU3

"What now?" I complained.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJH7KtgDiv1

"I need to check if all the diamonds are in here," said Jehan, shaking the teddy in his other hand.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztUvorVkGe

"What do you think? That950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qyEadonWg
I would steal from you?" I was really surprised that he didn't trust 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aiodaHqzs
me. "You pointed a gun to my head in Paris and I have done everything 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwE6nze30Gt
you have asked until now. What makes you think I would steal your 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV34mlQHylk
diamonds? I have a life to live, may I remind you."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgC7Cmq0q3j

Jehan raised an eyebrow 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAeI7cO80d
at me. "Nice one, Zoey. You almost had me convinced. But I'm still going950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdAeQ682ue
to check. I've to make sure all the diamonds are in here before I make a950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoWXpbOpVV
fool of myself in front of my clients I'm selling these to."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrDjXW3Eot

"Fine." I folded my arms on the table. "If you don't believe me, then check it yourself. I know I'm innocent."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgZ0sGSd0M

"I know you're." Jehan gave me a smile and I looked away facing the window. It was getting really dark outside so fast.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTPNb1VcMq

I went back to looking 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMaWKpbB6W
at Jehan who had laid the little teddy bear on the table and he dug into950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5Zb2y6odi
the pockets of his suit and removed a small pocket knife. It didn't 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXYmNOqrAw
surprise me that he carried that thing around.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCsDhaY7OB

Jehan slowly laid the 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLS0pTFQaH
blade onto the little teddy's belly and cut through its tiny suit, 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsV1eD8pGu
dissecting the teddy bear. This reminded me of science class back in 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAPTlfVv1p
high school when we were told to dissect a frog. Doing that was so 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56OuubdXCs
disgusting that I ended up purking all over Sam's shoes, who was my 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSP13M9HXvQ
science partner. This time, it was just cotton stuffing that came out of950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcDguD8bcm
the teddy bear.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxocIPLhKPm

Wait. I frowned. This 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhh7trXjyDQ
isn't right. I raised an eyebrow when Jehan kept on removing cotton 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVfUzekstc
stuffings and there was no sign of the diamonds. Where were the 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5g0Qi54V5R
diamonds!950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgTNi5bAXd

I stared horrified at 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzb0KourpD
the scene on the table. There was tiny cotton stuffings everywhere and 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8uDITYQdC
the bear that laid stuffless on the table was a sad site to see because 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXxQlco9p9
there was nothing in it. No diamonds.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FiNBCTK7o

I looked up at Jehan and950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbjoPZXIBv
he was as surprised as I was. His mouth was wide open and he couldn't 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSr1QzDdWU
stop looking at the dissected teddy. If he kept on looking at it like 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdOTyzmDL4
that, he was going to end up traumatised.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMhFzaCKh4

"Je-Jehan," I said 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQjscqUpLX
softly. Hoping he wouldn't bite at me like a dog with rabies. "Jehan. 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKnXya1E0Y
I...I have no idea what has just happened, but, there are no diamonds in950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVejN9whQ8B
there."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ45qRQYLFP

Jean neither moved nor 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5S4QNTl2fS
said a word. I was getting worried. Should I move him to try and snap 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWBYOlGYLA
him out of it? I didn't know what to do.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb48Nv7dR9G

But how could this be? 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvVktqDwOl
Where did the diamonds go? It's not like the teddy bear could just poop 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOx5wCK9GB4
out diamonds since it wasn't alive or anything. Something weird was 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfBj7WabZJ
going on. And I wasn't like liking it at all.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGUsr8UOVv

"Where are my diamonds?" Jehan muttered silently, still looking at the scene before him.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgnpwawIee

"I...I don't know," I said shaking my head. I was scared of his reaction and I prepared myself for it.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61L6Wbu78O

He banged his fists on 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvHkzYMUdD
the table so loudly that he startled not only me, but everyone else in 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuEKZLullj
the café. Everyone turned to look at us and I looked around then back at950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyc7VgviGS
Jehan, whose eyes were as red as a bull's, staring at me.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTRfuLbdfg

"Jehan, chill," I said, putting my hands up to calm him down. "Let's not try to get angry here."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2t8MXItxO

"Where are my diamonds, Zoey?" This time he didn't shout but the anger in his voice got me shivering.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPRL9hBWTb

"I don't know. I don't 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sM65ZEZ7B
know what's going on right now. This is the same teddy bear you sent us.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyVYwqF9sP
I don't know why it doesn't have diamonds in it."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGAHx9Rlkf

"How did the diamonds go missing?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlQY2sCJ6w

"How am I supposed to 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHt1ujV6Z5
know? I just kept the teddy for you. Maybe you sent me the teddy without950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLF0UoIVCS
diamonds in it and you probably never noticed."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEijGXTS4n

"Don't doubt what I do, Zoey! I made sure I made no mistake."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9MOoDAlbl

"Okay, chill, I believe you. Look, why don't we try to sort this out calmly? Getting upset won't do us any good."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlAbRVA73e

Jehan rubbed his 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGz1KSkWT4r
forehead and sighed as he leaned back further into his seat. He seemed 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBU0zQUat9
to have calmed down when he looked at the teddy bear again.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoArvD2CuwU

"I need my diamonds back, Zoey."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETunBjrzMi

"I know. You've said that like almost a hundred times now."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYmVbQ9DpS

"Let's not joke around here. What happened? Why does this bear have no diamonds in it?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbV2zOMwCZg

"I didn't do anything. I swear. That teddy was just the way it was eversince you sent it."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLAGkBLfYo

"Then why doesn't it have diamonds in it?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFxwo6Zdtw

"I don't know."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewmVBOtvRp

Jehan looked at me with an eyebrow raised. "Who else had this teddy apart from you?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPmu5Bizgz

"Ummm," I looked down 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYtCy1uQXi
and played around with my fingers. "Uh....I wasn't the one who had been 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96Z7cqUEgA
taking care of the teddy bear this whole time."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzgrZdZzhO

"What?" Jehan sounded surprised. "What do you mean?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBU6CcMFYy1

"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.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNknzUeBEtn

"Who had the teddy bear?" Jehan leaned closer, his eyes not leaving mine.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPzqwbuBFW

"Lee had it before I took it from her yesterday."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9PScdP1aH

"Oh, my gosh!" Jehan 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmgW3wtVH8
covered his face with his hands and I could see this wasn't going too 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bGFBTnxAw
well for him. "Could she have the diamonds?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGx4zlbsAij

"I don't think so. Lee 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGnIK63Ii5
is an honest person. If she did notice there were diamonds in the teddy,950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmHcNqsdrT
she would've said something. No way. She can't have the diamonds."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAXL1kkpnQ

"Then how do we explain all this! She was the last person to have the teddy, correct?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsO61M7LJkD

"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."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0a3mDo2PXf

"Maybe you don't know Lee well enough. If this is the same teddy I had sent, where could the diamonds be?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqib26DlzTa

"Maybe this is just another teddy bear and the actual one with the diamonds is still at the hotel."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqcSaZPA6r

After I said that, Jehan950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0JyScIaX7
quickly took the dissected teddy bear in his hands and looked at it 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jx99y8bwT
carefully. He turned the teddy, looking at its back side and tearing the950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQmqVAMo7i
suit away. I wondered what he was looking for because he had a serious 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEzimZmPLQ
look on his face.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZl1dsQ0bj

"You're right," said Jehan. "This is definitely another teddy bear and not the one I sent you."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU34Cigt5eP

"Wait, how do you know?" I asked.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXtVk08mwl

"I remember one of my 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSgwHfgYeb
men who sewed the teddy bear after putting diamonds in it at the back. 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDQJyRMXYC
There should have been some stitching here but this one doesn't."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDgsrsj1m2

"Ha!" I snapped my fingers. "I knew I was right!"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQIs8a1xcF

"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!"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nC5lLElHg

"Huh? I can't start 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBikX1ZCnz
searching for it now. It would look suspicious. And I can't start asking950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GmlgGl3ux
Lee if she bought another teddy just like this one. She already knows 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6i8rYW8UH
that the bear is missing."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66oldwrf4r

"Then maybe, Lee isn't the only person you should be asking."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJLQjJWET1

"What do you mean?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYxbwnS6Js

"Someone else must know where the other teddy bear is. Your group members perhaps."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzmZhTVBKp

"No. I highly doubt it. Lee must have bought another teddy and we just didn't know about it."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ByTluDQAX

"Now that, makes no 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YsGGPmcL6
sense. If I were you, I would go back and find out what happened to that950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2HJz6OI1U
teddy and ask around for it. I'll need that teddy tomorrow."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Y3KW6IzI3

"Tomorrow! Are you nuts!"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWwmfPZp3H

"Maybe I am because I'm desperate to have those diamonds back."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGASRL95uE

"I might not be around tomorrow. I have a music video to shoot."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhFmmXRD4o

"Find those diamonds and you will be scott free, Zoey. Or do you want everyone to mourn over you when they find you dead?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTVHyTeGal

I completely forgot that950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbR543JezG
I was being threatened by this guy. Though his threats didn't scare me 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzEwiHDtnz
anymore, I just had to abide to everything. Who knows, he might not have950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShO4NBsNRL
me killed, but he could hurt the others and it would be all my fault.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNpJgMPXC5

"Okay. I'll see what I can do."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbNG1qun3A

Jehan gave me a smile. 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02qmmdB4ko
"That's more I like it. I would start working on this soon if I were 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhX1oTskf7a
you. Try your best to find the bear by tomorrow, will you?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9k2c3Lw3A

I nodded my head and 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HI5ElmOB1
that made him smile even more. He soon stood up from his seat and looked950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijOlpocESg
down at me. I looked back at him without a saying a word.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGkBCljHFJ

"See you tomorrow," said Jehan and he quickly walked out of the café.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡum3OgCHFc0

I sat there as I buried 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6i425Se3k
my face in my hands, thinking of what to do. Again, everything was 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuthK6RJkcX
ruined. First, the interruption from TOP and Seungri yesterday. Now, the950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKI92zbpB0v
teddy bear had been swapped with another. My life couldn't get any 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEV4Ah3AHs
worse than this. What was going on? Who was putting me into so much 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TEUQ0VEct
drama that might just ruin my life?950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMjFKTQZOg

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.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCNLY0PuBc

"Zoey, what happened?" Christine asked, as she turned to look on what was on the table.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0QwdjQrtn

I could hear footsteps 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVgne0FdqS
behind me. The others had come in the café too. They all looked worried 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7Hvf6pQbO
when they saw the look on my face.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlUQqDVSKb

Christine sat where Jehan had been a few minutes ago and looked at the tattered teddy bear on the table.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyKWMa2mgw

"What's going on?" Daniel asked. "And what happened to Mr Teddy?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMOhYrDT7u

"Jehan didn't look happy when he left the café," said TOP. "Didn't he get his diamonds?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaMoPnLFYD

"No," I answered. "He didn't."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1onuIttVV

"What?" Seungri sounded surprised. "What do you mean he didn't get his diamonds?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvGMVFbLgI

"This teddy isn't the teddy he had sent us," I answered. "Someone swapped the teddy with another."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ540c1zlPe3

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."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoc0z7vq03N

"And what about Lee?" 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXq4Wnr1sS
Christine asked. "She was the one who last had the teddy before Zoey 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2DmODAxjY
took it. But what doesn't make any sense is why she would want to get 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV49uHnh0rF
another teddy when she had asked me last night where Mr Teddy had gone 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLT6zcdcR2
to."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WwNj4uw0d

"This is bad," I said, 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqoqL6ADMH
leaning my elbows on the table and holding my head. "Whoever has the 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyx75kUd4v4
teddy, knew what must have been going on this whole time."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEfqpKcueL

"Ya, but who could have known?" Seungri asked. "It couldn't be Lee because all she knows is that the teddy has gone missing."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSYUpNAOPq

"Maybe Sam has it," said Mike.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujeM0J2nT9

We all turned to look at Mike with grim looks on our faces.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2In2FtR5m6

"Sam?" I wondered for a 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuL4JaAXdj
little while. "Why would Sam have the teddy? And if she did, how could 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGH6OrtSU8
she have swapped it with the other one?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKPMjPlSJX

"Okay, wait," said TOP. 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxk6N8vtTJ
"This is all too confusing. Does Sam even have any idea or clue as to 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8VT4iOXES
what's really going on in the first place?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWAtRKCsHB

"I doubt it," I said 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRQ73TpoeB
shaking my head. "If she knew what was going on she would have 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsiM0JJSKG
confronted me. And besides, she was also at the mall yesterday and would950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU434NCTmFG
have probably seen Jehan and I together. But she didn't."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28iRL8HPNd

TOP and Seungri looked 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSAqbD2nvs
at each other after I said that. What was up with them? The look they 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnReyKjfgl
gave each other made me feel that something was up but I quickly brushed950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQShbPyCcj
it away.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBr0cn1isR

"I highly doubt it too,"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfORUI6kUis
said Daniel. "If she knew Zoey was into some kind of serious trouble, 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QXdm3ZHBh
she would have asked us about it."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8w9Kmtzfn

"That's true," said 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMSnmodiYz
Mike. "Come to think of it, I don't think Sam has it. For her to swap 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyNAb7qiTO
the teddy, she would have bought it from somewhere."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡid9LPsIq5F

"And I checked out the 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyn1yznwXvC
shopping bags, Lee came with yesterday when she went shopping with Sam. 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypnfZbMG5n
There was no sign of a small teddy in any of them," said Christine.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtEhwkL01t

"She must have bought it when she was with G-Dragon," I said.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuNIH1vx95

"No, I highly doubt it,"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7guA5DTzdN
said TOP. "There are some dedicated fans who followed those two 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyELyAFcKF6
yesterday, describing which store they went to and taking pictures. They950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkWlNK9Zqg
said nothing about them entering a toy store."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28LJf8s0UR

"Now that's what I call a dead end," said Daniel.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVJr0VOZhw

"Fine, so Lee and Sam have been cancelled on the list," said Seungri. "Who else could have swapped the teddies?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOV35zECGv

"Collins?" Mike asked.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJyIzdHmqQ

"Ha! No way," I said, almost laughing in a such a serious situation. "How could he have known about Jehan and the diamonds?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX013hwlLav

"Mmmm, good point," said Seungri. "He's been really busy these past few days."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qGFGzhmEd

"But who knows? Maybe he950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEePVcDqPPn
has been spying on me this whole time and I haven't noticed. He 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZopKg81nG
considers me the black sheep that has to be kept an eye on at all 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTKy8fgcha
times."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmAmUKC49h

"You're definitely the black sheep, Zoey," said Mike.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsW5FoUdMD

"Hey! May I remind you, I'm not the only one here who gets into trouble here."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkkBBn9PXJ

"Okay, guys, focus," said TOP. "What makes you think Collins might have been the one who swapped the teddies?"950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZB0WEJvnqC

Daniel suddenly snapped his fingers. "I remember now. Yesterday when he came back with Sam, something happened."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTaGc7fUXT

"Wait. Collins was with Sam?" I asked.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8dSKuvKH1

"He was the one who went950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgkKMZeBYg
to pick her up from the mall," Daniel answered. "Back to what I was 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFvqnmCN6R
saying, Collins had something delivered to him at the hotel. He even 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNllE4c1r66
went to get it himself from the delivery man who was coming up the 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1fEV0lPFx
elevator."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3c0JpUBa3x

"What was it?" We all asked Daniel, looking at him anxiously.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLfgSDrgBq

"It was a small box. And if you ask me, it was kind of like the one Jehan had sent that teddy bear in."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCghyav1u7w

"Gosh, it's been Collins this whole time," said Christine.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2i6QihHcN9

"I couldn't be too sure," I said. "But after what Daniel has said, I don't know what to believe."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2baYdX03e

"We really have to go," said Seungri. "We can't stay here."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iv6xO4MDz

"You're right," I said 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaGApulnLj
as I stood up from the seat taking my purse. "I've to search for that 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddt4f6yViA
teddy if I want to make it out alive tomorrow."950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0SySJUMgK

"Wait, we can't leave all this here," said Christine, taking what was left of the teddy bear in her hands.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5pmhJfLRz

We all walked out of the950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpD4iXSWRO
café, hopping no one had heard our conversation. There were a few 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdluayPdZBj
people in the café and I highly doubt if they really heard anything.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQ3z7gpBRF

While I was in the car 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5YxO834Gt
with Seungri driving and the others in the other car behind us, I was so950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGY6vUfB2uC
troubled about the missing teddy. I couldn't help thinking that Collins950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44ph9amlEM
is involved. But that didn't make any sense. As much as I wanted to 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Zl8r5pmK6
believe that Collins could have swapped the teddies, I shook my head at 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmn5D7de2Mu
the thought of it. Maybe it really wasn't Collins.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WyLhO4qTu

If it isn't him, then 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsod08jGhaH
who? It couldn't be Lee because she had the teddy with her the whole 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0Q8lfXBvr
time and she couldn't buy another teddy for no reason. And I couldn't 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WEiyRIETb
picture Sam doing anything like that either because I had never seen her950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLXeAWEYqY
near that teddy after Jehan sent it to us that day.950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFWer8pZTS

What if I had the wrong 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqO4ttjTwS
teddy the whole time and I had never known till now? All this was too 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWax4EG4wPU
confusing. Who swapped the teddies? And when did the swapping ever take 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSH8ive6sR6
place without any of us noticing in the first place?950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPY0ykJ4J5

I hope I could be able 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnoFdqBwwE
to find the teddy soon. Jehan might threaten to kill me, but I was 950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQsPCTvaBt
pretty sure he would try to hurt the others too. And I wouldn't let that950Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJU4YhbhNr
happen.
