Zoey's P.O.Vcopyright protection263PENANARym4WS46qb267Please respect copyright.PENANA73ukVbbu1K
Waking up this Monday 267Please respect copyright.PENANADsNKNqmDmw
morning was hectic. I didn't want to get out of bed, but in one way or 267Please respect copyright.PENANAiZboODoYLY
another, I would have to. I lay awake, thinking. I didn't want to face 267Please respect copyright.PENANAueFUw3hwtH
off the challenges for today knowing that one of them was dealing with 267Please respect copyright.PENANAkjZtH9s9C7
Jehan. Since I still have the teddy bear, I wasn't as free as I expected267Please respect copyright.PENANAk8NISyJPQb
myself to be.copyright protection263PENANA7E6lk88cQx267Please respect copyright.PENANAYUKiTE7XRN
I couldn't stop 267Please respect copyright.PENANAHwDWoHvvXI
wondering what Seungri and TOP were doing at the mall yesterday. As much267Please respect copyright.PENANAqt1OKpXUjD
as I wanted to believe that it was a coincidence, I couldn't help but 267Please respect copyright.PENANA2M5wn5uQJA
feel that something was wrong.copyright protection263PENANA8XClrGiSIx267Please respect copyright.PENANAGOvGO3mdnx
Could they have known 267Please respect copyright.PENANANVH5BWaQFK
about Jehan? And if they did, then how? I shook my head. Maybe all that 267Please respect copyright.PENANAe2x2WLOjb5
was nothing but a coincidence and I was just being paranoid. If they 267Please respect copyright.PENANA9V0q1qAkFc
really had found out about Jehan, they would have been asking questions 267Please respect copyright.PENANAEn6nbXyRNF
about him and what he does while we were shopping. But they didn't. We 267Please respect copyright.PENANABu85B5tvHj
just had our usual conversation.copyright protection263PENANA9xaRgzLjKV267Please respect copyright.PENANAWWpje0hQmT
I brushed off all those 267Please respect copyright.PENANAP9tNxqSDUP
thoughts aside when the alarm on my phone rang telling me to get up. The267Please respect copyright.PENANAOdg2FuAUOD
last time I had ever put up an alarm was the morning of my last day of 267Please respect copyright.PENANA6n3w67BKWB
high school. Eversince I became a musician, I never put up an alarm when267Please respect copyright.PENANAOGOgXAlhQe
I knew I had someone around to wake me up. Like Sam.copyright protection263PENANA1pwQxA4z6i267Please respect copyright.PENANANS8CLsgLxj
But now that she wasn't 267Please respect copyright.PENANAsRLzPYA1a7
here, I had to wake up on my own. Most of the time, I would do so 267Please respect copyright.PENANA4udfOOlFTz
without her help. But when I overslept, she was always there to wake me.267Please respect copyright.PENANAuXoryQpfpa
Anyway, right now, I was just too troubled in my sleep that I must have267Please respect copyright.PENANAI1hPBH2tbF
woken up early before the alarm rang.copyright protection263PENANAMpuK49Enxl267Please respect copyright.PENANAbxyifKIIrt
I sat up on my bed and 267Please respect copyright.PENANARvXjNnjOfY
switched off the alarm. I checked the empty bed beside mine and I 267Please respect copyright.PENANAX2iEhpx6Mw
couldn't help but realise how much I miss Sam. I don't know why I was 267Please respect copyright.PENANA6SKiqYkKQo
feeling this way, but I hated the fact that I was missing her so bad. 267Please respect copyright.PENANAMzODq0KnQX
Not after what happened yesterday at the mall and all over social media.copyright protection263PENANAaEhZArLGAy267Please respect copyright.PENANAXyhfyaBUjs
After seeing her with 267Please respect copyright.PENANAl6EHs4ErfE
G-Dragon yesterday broke my heart further into tiny pieces. As much as I267Please respect copyright.PENANATb97OHNvEY
knew she was only there just to try and resolve things with G-Dragon, I267Please respect copyright.PENANAefTaDFVSGf
was filled with fury seeing the two of them together. And to make 267Please respect copyright.PENANAL1YFg8Jt5z
matters worse, after I had left the mall, I went online and there were 267Please respect copyright.PENANAPmYpBAPzNw
pictures of the two everywhere. They were a trending topic for the whole267Please respect copyright.PENANAVolMx1wSUx
day. That left me devastated.copyright protection263PENANAvmueL5INVg267Please respect copyright.PENANA736SCYP8P2
I couldn't stop looking 267Please respect copyright.PENANAiDt7SPw6BD
at pictures online even when I came back to the hotel. I read so many 267Please respect copyright.PENANAPSckreFjBa
comments. As much as there were so many haters around (like myself), so 267Please respect copyright.PENANAxRsQCfduJy
many people couldn't stop talking about how adorable the two looked 267Please respect copyright.PENANABhzbU48zFr
together. I couldn't help but admit to myself that they were right. They267Please respect copyright.PENANAARGQaUebT9
really did make a cute couple. And that left me envious. I wished it 267Please respect copyright.PENANARn4RvlN7LD
was G-Dragon and I. Not G-Dragon and Sam.copyright protection263PENANABugIYT80CJ267Please respect copyright.PENANAzxxaS8s8j5
That sent me boiling to a267Please respect copyright.PENANARrpVMYslWg
point where I almost threw my phone away. When Christine came to see me267Please respect copyright.PENANA3uX5dDnE1d
in my room and found me in an angry fit, I told her how painful I felt 267Please respect copyright.PENANAmtQs7ZRFti
seeing G-Dragon and Sam together.copyright protection263PENANA2BRJf2j3z8267Please respect copyright.PENANAlybDWdlG0D
Christine had told me to267Please respect copyright.PENANA8KtoYCHVI6
cool down and that I shouldn't be jealous. She told me that Sam was 267Please respect copyright.PENANAW1gFKSpi1Y
only with G-Dragon because she was only trying to resolve things. I told267Please respect copyright.PENANAfVUsIPSVmw
her that I already knew that. Christine quickly left me to myself when 267Please respect copyright.PENANAR24fdv38YT
she realised that she couldn't calm me down. So I was alone for the rest267Please respect copyright.PENANAPNJGgDiew3
of the day, not speaking to anyone. I didn't even join the others for 267Please respect copyright.PENANAguZL5K40Ip
supper. I had ordered for my supper to be taken up to my room.copyright protection263PENANA1mj0y2Uhpi267Please respect copyright.PENANAnWMEjJGyjx
And now, I had to face 267Please respect copyright.PENANAVXQEYkWzNk
another challenge of seeing everyone today, most especially Sam, since 267Please respect copyright.PENANA9KAl1ndZGt
we have to finish up on the dance routine and start working on the music267Please respect copyright.PENANAaQmUNS8Slw
video as soon as possible. I have to put up with all this today when I 267Please respect copyright.PENANAgcmvwQpSvu
was still so upset.copyright protection263PENANA9ORIc64ax1267Please respect copyright.PENANAlDygp8zUls
I quickly got out of bed and went in the showers, hoping the cool water would cool down all the boiling anger in me.copyright protection263PENANAFPnAAAzlUE267Please respect copyright.PENANAuPrOVWas14
After I was done, I 267Please respect copyright.PENANAUyUDtZLqyB
quickly dressed up. And carrying my purse with me, I went to meet the 267Please respect copyright.PENANApNn4qnB9P2
others at the dining table for breakfast.copyright protection263PENANAyEjRz3eMJe267Please respect copyright.PENANADhVxGEMkne
I found them already 267Please respect copyright.PENANATtqg6RElrS
settled. When I came to sit, everyone mouthed out a "good morning" to 267Please respect copyright.PENANAXiKBZqWHzU
me, except Sam. And I replied back with a smile on my face.copyright protection263PENANA3boBCeGk9v267Please respect copyright.PENANAbmaWWMlcUL
I felt a little awkward 267Please respect copyright.PENANAMT7V1kdzD9
when I looked at Sam who sat across the table next to Collins and hadn't267Please respect copyright.PENANAnGjXAMxA6n
said a word. She was busy with her breakfast, her usual bacon, eggs and267Please respect copyright.PENANAnKoG1XvplI
toast with juice. I realised she hadn't even looked up at me once and 267Please respect copyright.PENANAKl6J9dTTXJ
that also felt weird.copyright protection263PENANAMGsRchqxbz267Please respect copyright.PENANACKHs6FgYMO
I know that she and I 267Please respect copyright.PENANAJwAcgaWDCw
aren't talking to each other at the moment, but I expected her to say a 267Please respect copyright.PENANAt1Y7nOP18q
"good morning" or even look at me to acknowledge that I was around. She 267Please respect copyright.PENANA9pMpyy2H9J
was one person even if we ever had an argument, she would at least try 267Please respect copyright.PENANAnIMyYzpCll
to say something to me. The fact that she didn't greet me, made me feel 267Please respect copyright.PENANAHSfI7qN6uv
like something was wrong.copyright protection263PENANA9QRVE7p3lF267Please respect copyright.PENANApmNwTFmIho
I poured myself a cup of267Please respect copyright.PENANAcQTDW4L5Aq
coffee, trying to ignore what I was feeling at the moment. I got some 267Please respect copyright.PENANA4USQ9QAleN
slices of toast and ate my breakfast.copyright protection263PENANATa28MtebrL267Please respect copyright.PENANA28NeAhPc3C
"Hey, Sam," said Mike, who sat right next to her. "Have you seen what people have been saying about you and G-Dragon?"copyright protection263PENANAhwINofKoL2267Please respect copyright.PENANArvunWbQoaT
My heart almost skipped a267Please respect copyright.PENANAcVhGyUFWda
beat and I almost choked on my coffee. What was Mike getting at? I know267Please respect copyright.PENANAozXse0gQpr
he does things just to annoy me sometimes, but this time, he's gone way267Please respect copyright.PENANAainplvLHiX
too far. I was over here! Hello!copyright protection263PENANA7ylJh2LShY267Please respect copyright.PENANACi1wNC8Dqq
"You don't have to remind me," Sam said as she looked at her brother. "I've decided not to go online today."copyright protection263PENANA6rDbGeg3Zr267Please respect copyright.PENANAwDVgfFsvZg
"For one who doesn't like attention, you might just disappear off the face of the earth," said Collins.copyright protection263PENANA6jcpmU8223267Please respect copyright.PENANAkcUO7Ev937
"I can do that," said Sam, staring up at the ceiling obviously building castles in the air.copyright protection263PENANAJ71AsVewpL267Please respect copyright.PENANAW9WNNYcNE0
"I have no doubt about it."copyright protection263PENANAi9l6pxzgYJ267Please respect copyright.PENANAB0QpeRBsd3
"But I don't see why you267Please respect copyright.PENANAC72j0I0wfB
have to," said Daniel. "Just because people make stories about you and 267Please respect copyright.PENANAVWPcBbNdGd
G-Dragon dating, doesn't mean that you are."copyright protection263PENANARRI7P4Mf3Q267Please respect copyright.PENANAPzSD6ifGEl
"One thing about fans is267Please respect copyright.PENANAVwf3mXuYtX
that they can make a story so believable, even those who don't know 267Please respect copyright.PENANATXJgUPQ7hc
what's going on, might end up believing it," said Christine.copyright protection263PENANAdfEyRy1fgz267Please respect copyright.PENANA0QVbI09H5K
"I know," said Lee. 267Please respect copyright.PENANAwBzaKYjZJP
"Right now, some k-pop news sites are already taking this to the next 267Please respect copyright.PENANASnpOOjy3tO
level. But they all say they couldn't be too sure about it until they 267Please respect copyright.PENANAFoOUAYeUkz
get an official statement from you and G-Dragon."copyright protection263PENANAukLq0nnNZn267Please respect copyright.PENANAWZEbhGI9Wy
"Wow, that's serious," said Sam.copyright protection263PENANAbZv2exRZyI267Please respect copyright.PENANAh3faakd2o3
"But right now, we have no time for interviews," said Collins. "We have a music video to work on."copyright protection263PENANAcQW8ULkiWM267Please respect copyright.PENANApz9sxNiMIN
"I can work with that," said Sam, with a smile on her face.copyright protection263PENANAwdtmjd5bN2267Please respect copyright.PENANASQMGWVgdCp
"Alright, guys, finish your breakfast. You know the drill."copyright protection263PENANAK2mR1PleMN267Please respect copyright.PENANA3eUIYlkpvh
"Aye, aye," said Daniel.copyright protection263PENANA2m0ZvKC7rj267Please respect copyright.PENANAGYT34hloAl
"Well, you're quiet today, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me. She sat directly across from me on the table.copyright protection263PENANAgFRZyZNXUF267Please respect copyright.PENANAWgP6MUk09T
"Do you have a problem with that?" I asked, eyeing Christine.copyright protection263PENANAVpOS0YNmtp267Please respect copyright.PENANAmelwZocAeR
"You're just too quiet, that's all."copyright protection263PENANA3UPDwTphj5267Please respect copyright.PENANAyfRwV5WMMC
"You should be quiet more often," said Collins as he got up from the table. "It kind of suits you."copyright protection263PENANAYk2NgfM1wQ267Please respect copyright.PENANA3hMJzw0ujM
I frowned at Collins. "Thanks. I'll try doing so more often. That's if I really want to."copyright protection263PENANA7KulrYIjC8267Please respect copyright.PENANAzCz6BtuX2f
"Now that's the Zoey I know," said Mike, raising his eyebrow at me and smiling.copyright protection263PENANApe8IxYoN6O267Please respect copyright.PENANAP8eHObgHAS
I stuck my tongue out at267Please respect copyright.PENANAunmeRkdsCA
him but he continued to smile mockingly nonetheless. I noticed that the267Please respect copyright.PENANA2gDldbiqpE
others were laughing and smiling at the whole thing, except Sam. She 267Please respect copyright.PENANANnheypBjD5
still wasn't looking in my direction.copyright protection263PENANA8H9IBQRVbT267Please respect copyright.PENANAhMEgVfPxF1
Soon after breakfast, we267Please respect copyright.PENANA0ltWXPmvxv
left for YG. In the SUV, Sam sat at the back with her brothers. We were267Please respect copyright.PENANA7WEnf6m0Nj
all chatting happily in the car but she was quiet the whole way. She 267Please respect copyright.PENANAHtJq0kigTZ
was like that nowadays, always lost in thought. I wondered what she 267Please respect copyright.PENANAWfRmThZxeb
could be thinking about. Sam was one person who never really shared what267Please respect copyright.PENANAnGKAQHCx6v
she thought. When you asked her about it, she would usually say 267Please respect copyright.PENANAc5CPqNSdez
"nothing" and say no more. But if she really wanted to share with you, 267Please respect copyright.PENANAksBcXojwcF
she would.copyright protection263PENANAUTS8Lezj9O267Please respect copyright.PENANARi05nHwcpU
We arrived at YG and we 267Please respect copyright.PENANA3qX6nbUMfQ
found ourselves back at the dance studio we were practising in on 267Please respect copyright.PENANAfp4BxoJUDP
Saturday. We found our dance instructor and all the BigBang members with267Please respect copyright.PENANAh19zJGyYVd
the rest of the backup dancers, waiting for us.copyright protection263PENANA95ndj9VWrE267Please respect copyright.PENANA9OkHbr4Tbg
When everyone was 267Please respect copyright.PENANAHYWh7j7DY7
exchanging greetings with each other, G-Dragon didn't respond to me when267Please respect copyright.PENANA5JQBDHsdK5
I said "hi" to him. Given with what happened yesterday, I bet he was 267Please respect copyright.PENANAcR9Ot7VNoL
still mad at me for how I behaved towards Sam. He didn't even want to 267Please respect copyright.PENANAPf5f43W4Cb
hang out with us soon after Sam had left.copyright protection263PENANA0nH8AP686n267Please respect copyright.PENANApSodlX1kZA
He not responding to me 267Please respect copyright.PENANAJE6FCACtcB
felt awkward and I longed for him to at least give me some attention. He267Please respect copyright.PENANAwKeGOdwhuI
didn't say "hi" to Sam either but just nodded his head when she greeted267Please respect copyright.PENANANdP0NYfnYq
him. At least that was acknowledging someone even if they weren't 267Please respect copyright.PENANAYcRQuUrvxJ
talking to each other. And he was staring at her the whole time even 267Please respect copyright.PENANAT3F8bkJaRN
when she wasn't looking. I thought of throwing a shoe at him, but I just267Please respect copyright.PENANAjSNvwV8u6N
looked away instead.copyright protection263PENANAQV6V5rRkbG267Please respect copyright.PENANAgPmlJup5wK
We went straight to 267Please respect copyright.PENANAWYBfC9sSpy
practising for almost a good five hours. And those proved to be the 267Please respect copyright.PENANA0hzGHcS52E
hardest five hours of my life. Since the dance routine starts with 267Please respect copyright.PENANAjhpKqauISy
G-Dragon and I, it was really hard having him so close. I realised that I267Please respect copyright.PENANAxheZRcjMqp
still had feelings for him. At some point during practise, I almost 267Please respect copyright.PENANAerRCbIA9Uh
hugged him, but I brought myself not to. And that wasn't the worst part.copyright protection263PENANA3scuCp64A6267Please respect copyright.PENANACHNxorJmDf
During pratice, I 267Please respect copyright.PENANAmJiVE8yWjJ
noticed that G-Dragon still couldn't take his eyes off Sam. This was 267Please respect copyright.PENANALMv9WmTZam
getting to the point where I wanted to scream at him to snap out of it. I267Please respect copyright.PENANApqGne10AXv
wondered what he saw in Sam and that sent me thinking.copyright protection263PENANAwdVNSYmKLN267Please respect copyright.PENANAvPHpMMXp60
G-Dragon wasn't the only267Please respect copyright.PENANAzFqsNY5EYj
one who liked Sam. Come to think of it, Daesung also liked her. 267Please respect copyright.PENANA5MLyJ1unKB
Probably even Seungri and TOP, given that Seungri had a beautiful crown 267Please respect copyright.PENANAMh04F1vlGA
made just for her and TOP flirts with her whenever he gets the chance 267Please respect copyright.PENANAdqaCsi0jdR
to. Taeyang already had Hyo-rin and always takes Sam like a sister. What267Please respect copyright.PENANAqraCltqj76
did Sam have that even most of the BigBang members like her so much?copyright protection263PENANAGHv90ApJpb267Please respect copyright.PENANA0HBaerKc3I
As her best friend, I 267Please respect copyright.PENANAqb4vwdHAyw
should be aware of her qualities. She was nice and friendly to whoever 267Please respect copyright.PENANAYGqNbYZ4eh
approached her. She is very pretty and had a great body, though she was 267Please respect copyright.PENANAzmhv8PD41Q
never ever fully aware of her physical beauty. She always thought she 267Please respect copyright.PENANAUSW35cih5I
was like any other ordinary girl but she was more than that.copyright protection263PENANAn9hf0dccHg267Please respect copyright.PENANAGIuSc8rO92
She is also smart, 267Please respect copyright.PENANAxa9fJkZLgc
caring and always understanding. She is a great leader and one who 267Please respect copyright.PENANArlFkfOtOOt
always had our backs whenever we needed it. I don't know how many times 267Please respect copyright.PENANAGgFjUzXUoL
she had always tried to get The Toxins out of trouble. I agree that even267Please respect copyright.PENANAacZf5MqVb9
if it looked like we don't appreciate what she does, we really do.copyright protection263PENANAMZNSmszg4j267Please respect copyright.PENANARbYnhUA1A1
Sam has a lot of good 267Please respect copyright.PENANAY1W1Q98zyw
qualities. Maybe that's why she is liked and loved by everyone. Even her267Please respect copyright.PENANArCNT4klVdR
fans. She is honest, when she wanted to. She is also a pretty good 267Please respect copyright.PENANA5kk7kZAk61
liar, only when it was necessary to do so. And she is one who wouldn't 267Please respect copyright.PENANA99dTn7BkKF
want to hurt anyone around her.copyright protection263PENANAzS2udotjaG267Please respect copyright.PENANAhmQn7PKBzD
Realising this made me 267Please respect copyright.PENANAV0njwpyZ03
feel a little guilty as I looked at Sam who was dancing in front of me 267Please respect copyright.PENANA6n3VGYvLaU
with Taeyang beside her. I looked at her face and she had this smile 267Please respect copyright.PENANAOqgfK2dVxA
that reflected her innocence. I realised that I had been giving Sam a 267Please respect copyright.PENANAFCdi0acGa3
real hard time after I found out G-Dragon likes her and not me. She is 267Please respect copyright.PENANAY3vg7sVn91
my best friend and would do nothing to hurt me. I know she was only 267Please respect copyright.PENANAwZJ8U8t83P
looking out for me like she always does, but I am just too ignorant to 267Please respect copyright.PENANAdnPUIL9gs7
realise it till now.copyright protection263PENANAB8pb9fBB0S267Please respect copyright.PENANAaAkUUhKu4X
"Wait, hold on a minute guys," said the choreographer. We all stopped dancing as instructed.copyright protection263PENANA495K0DHPYg267Please respect copyright.PENANAYHqWgDa7kV
"Zoey, you aren't 267Please respect copyright.PENANAoYrO1a9iRH
concentrating," said the choreographer as he looked at me. "This is the 267Please respect copyright.PENANARuRISFWYqj
second time you have made the same mistake."copyright protection263PENANAiZfJwL3vJn267Please respect copyright.PENANAT7bi0DY7Db
"Oh, sorry," I said, scratching the back of my head feeling embarrassed. "I'll try to be more cautious next time."copyright protection263PENANAtpFrv0KL56267Please respect copyright.PENANA9N9Rz4dGBA
"Okay. Let's continue from where we left off."copyright protection263PENANAPEhah3KiTS267Please respect copyright.PENANA3hTE7Q27Jj
It was lunch the time we267Please respect copyright.PENANAr5giT70H2p
broke off for a break. The choreographer left and the others were 267Please respect copyright.PENANAblpuqCvN75
talking to some of the backup dancers. I noticed Sam at the corner of 267Please respect copyright.PENANAmZwykJDLsX
the room with Christine and some of the backup dancers talking. It 267Please respect copyright.PENANAf4kKQEeNSH
looked like they were having one hell of a funny conversation because 267Please respect copyright.PENANAgdtChIFnR5
they were all laughing.copyright protection263PENANANgNeSCUiiQ267Please respect copyright.PENANAmUxn2OYyXK
"Hey, why are you here all alone?" came TOP as he came to stand right next to me.copyright protection263PENANABrQ47HcAhT267Please respect copyright.PENANA4WQmgqeGXL
"Nothing," I replied, looking down at my sneakers. "I just want to be alone today."copyright protection263PENANA8yKkX2jM9M267Please respect copyright.PENANASzDoYelElE
"Still not talking to Sam?"copyright protection263PENANAjBrk2GCz7k267Please respect copyright.PENANAdAAChvR9zF
"Nope."copyright protection263PENANABOQRHufyOd267Please respect copyright.PENANAlCqPlV20JU
TOP's lips rose to a smile. "You really are stubborn."copyright protection263PENANAPSsJxBtsBX267Please respect copyright.PENANAjEqGhgDX8x
"Too bad it's in my DNA." I smirked.copyright protection263PENANAWBA4HdM689267Please respect copyright.PENANAeqGKdGTm9G
"And how long do you think you're going to put up with it?" TOP folded his arms as he looked at me.copyright protection263PENANA22uc0hnHUV267Please respect copyright.PENANAZq3Uw6RmbE
"Maybe till we go home." I shrugged my shoulders.copyright protection263PENANA1gmr91puPg267Please respect copyright.PENANAurNKVL28wq
"I doubt it. Judging by the way you performed today, you looked really preoccupied that you made several mistakes."copyright protection263PENANAe9mxoGCxOm267Please respect copyright.PENANA9fhlU8URLi
"Being preoccupied is Sam's thing."copyright protection263PENANAGSmRSD8Tpv267Please respect copyright.PENANAWBqyOncAxZ
"I know. But you aren't 267Please respect copyright.PENANA8vEPk19UBc
yourself, that's for sure. The Zoey I know wouldn't be here all alone. 267Please respect copyright.PENANACHQQ5VsG2p
You would be chit chatting like you always do."copyright protection263PENANAo3YbU798MT267Please respect copyright.PENANA8rCk9593TO
"What if I just want to be alone for today?"copyright protection263PENANAZv482WqjcA267Please respect copyright.PENANA7bt6Ypc9tW
"It's okay. Everyone has those kinds of days. But you make it look like being alone sometimes is a bad thing."copyright protection263PENANAQ7BLiuce6f267Please respect copyright.PENANArYq3ZiVU9Q
I frowned. "Why?"copyright protection263PENANArLwHBrvEfB267Please respect copyright.PENANA8vdctGxIZu
"Because you look miserable."copyright protection263PENANAXvcCzaCYL8267Please respect copyright.PENANAzX3AGtO0Im
I didn't expect that coming from TOP. My mouth was agape as I looked at him.copyright protection263PENANADxRMJY3nTJ267Please respect copyright.PENANAymniAO3BhO
"Miserable!"copyright protection263PENANAMw3YzPoGDw267Please respect copyright.PENANAa3NsStOEbT
"Ya." TOP nodded his head. "It clearly shows."copyright protection263PENANABVaQV5k1bC267Please respect copyright.PENANASFiCRWVjwe
I thought for a moment 267Please respect copyright.PENANA5yUglCgspY
and went back to looking at Sam and Christine with the backup dancers. 267Please respect copyright.PENANA1IfyyymyOm
Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel had also formed their own little 267Please respect copyright.PENANAcT5wTfgLZp
circle and were laughing and chatting too. Taeyang and G-Dragon were 267Please respect copyright.PENANAlmcP9zGgHR
with some of the backup dancers, having a normal chat.copyright protection263PENANAnoTcYqfisv267Please respect copyright.PENANAdnia74pJmV
Seeing all this in front267Please respect copyright.PENANA7RKWqoB6bH
of me made me realise that TOP is right. I am definitely miserable. By 267Please respect copyright.PENANAVc4bCaqlQu
now, I would be with the others, chatting. But here I was, all alone. 267Please respect copyright.PENANAirINzYtc2T

"I don't know," I said 267Please respect copyright.PENANA6Wbjse3Fvp

"Hey, guys," came Seungri, suddenly calling out to everyone in the room. "Who wants pizza?"copyright protection263PENANAkoIdFD0ItA267Please respect copyright.PENANAh4udLQYfYi
Everyone muttered out "me!" really loud. Seungri smiled and said he would bring the pizza.copyright protection263PENANAvtVnNt0VXZ267Please respect copyright.PENANAwbSmBbStUm

"Sure," I said. I really needed to get out of here for a while and breathe.copyright protection263PENANAX00mkEBytP267Please respect copyright.PENANANbV8LQkTux

I shook my head. All of the sudden, I felt my phone vibrate against my 267Please respect copyright.PENANA311GIgEPQT

calling.copyright protection263PENANAjhPooAo7rP267Please respect copyright.PENANAlUo2qIdIyQ
"Isn't it that French guy we met yesterday at the mall?" TOP asked, looking at my phone screen.copyright protection263PENANAD7v69yKwLc267Please respect copyright.PENANAB2Phwahdnx

I knew Jehan was going 267Please respect copyright.PENANAP3gIVhGTcV
to call and demand for the teddy bear. Luckily, I carried my purse with 267Please respect copyright.PENANAz8kydvErcM
the teddy bear in it. I hadn't removed it from my purse since yesterday 267Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9OwRNyWP1
and I checked to see if it was still in there this morning. The purse 267Please respect copyright.PENANAWTcWKNdV5o
was upstairs in the dance studio.copyright protection263PENANA2pLdqTe72Z267Please respect copyright.PENANA22lUxnBxF5

"What!" I was horrified and equally surprised. "No way. You can't come here."copyright protection263PENANAckBTGSIXl4267Please respect copyright.PENANAHnfmcGoW8D
"Fine. If you have a better idea, then call me or text in the next thirty minutes. I have to get that teddy today."copyright protection263PENANAzFwBYrtj1W267Please respect copyright.PENANA9cw6CBiRgj
"You don't have to remind me," I snarled.copyright protection263PENANAhczuVsml4T267Please respect copyright.PENANAyw6DiBb3Wr
He cut the call and I 267Please respect copyright.PENANAqvkMGegUVm
looked at my phone like I was ready to throw it out of the lobby through267Please respect copyright.PENANAU01fXRa3FP
the open entrance doors. This was bad. Real bad. He wanted to come here267Please respect copyright.PENANAej0MGtKpaz

him they would start to ask questions.copyright protection263PENANAAgzC9b56hu267Please respect copyright.PENANATHvHpbpMfq
"Zoey," came Seungri's voice behind me.copyright protection263PENANAq8th0aQaSr267Please respect copyright.PENANAMJXlp0g8ju

"Um, ya. Is there a problem?"copyright protection263PENANAyVEssmvNfh267Please respect copyright.PENANASrFGkMQRnn
"You two didn't seem to be having a normal conversation," said Seungri. "It sounded like you were arguing or something."copyright protection263PENANAI6BSIgHA1s267Please respect copyright.PENANAjk3e3NMKfX
"Arguing? Pfft. No," I gave out a small laugh trying to hide my fear. "It was just some silly misunderstanding."copyright protection263PENANAGW8UVCTju4267Please respect copyright.PENANAsMsWQ13tUo

Dang it! I was cornered 267Please respect copyright.PENANATZ5ga4EDhU
now. They had heard about the teddy. I couldn't come up with a lie. If 267Please respect copyright.PENANAzrITF2XGiU

"Okay. Now tell us what's going on," said TOP.copyright protection263PENANA6dehGbxsc4267Please respect copyright.PENANAHcOg3znXmQ
We went back to settle down on the chairs. We were at a reasonable distance away from the receptionist so I could talk quietly.copyright protection263PENANAEnPuoRUXgV267Please respect copyright.PENANAMylMwdaLi1

"He assured me that this267Please respect copyright.PENANAZEIh6fwYsD

"When all of this is over, Zoey, you're going to get a scolding from me," said Christine, as we walked down the hall.copyright protection263PENANAslaKr5bJ3N267Please respect copyright.PENANA4b4K3OGTfe
"I'll be ready for 267Please respect copyright.PENANAkqtiYp8Ahu
that," I said as I rolled my eyes. "I just can't wait to have everything267Please respect copyright.PENANAbZUmy8N0zN
back to the way they were. Before all the threatening."copyright protection263PENANAKW1bU3Zkbp267Please respect copyright.PENANAUCDaC0NFxe

"And G-Dragon," TOP added.copyright protection263PENANAxUz2fJqWSV267Please respect copyright.PENANA7nTUfBwIJ3
"Can we please not talk about that?" I asked. "You don't have to remind me all the time."copyright protection263PENANAuAHF9AiPi5267Please respect copyright.PENANAK2asb8BH20
"Well, someone has to," said Christine.copyright protection263PENANAhWLLP00C7d267Please respect copyright.PENANAEEMwQXnZay

We found ourselves back 267Please respect copyright.PENANA4n3wuZTkUH
at the studio and this time, I found Sam talking to Taeyang. G-Dragon 267Please respect copyright.PENANAdadporJGcT
was still talking to some of the back up dancers and I could see him 267Please respect copyright.PENANAxj134cPyGN
staring at Sam through the corner of his eye. Or was that me being 267Please respect copyright.PENANAZPjoLga0gv
paranoid?copyright protection263PENANAqJCznLQ0Co267Please respect copyright.PENANAC0bEeMtqgD
Christine snapped her fingers right in front of me and I turned to look at her.copyright protection263PENANAoykx1RlJub267Please respect copyright.PENANAq8kNLodKQv
"What?" I asked.copyright protection263PENANAKQOIIFTVk2267Please respect copyright.PENANADWBWQWL8w4

"Says the person who 267Please respect copyright.PENANAWgxNsNiApC

me a smirk and left me standing all alone by the door, while she joined 267Please respect copyright.PENANAQAb09z6zwa
the others who had soon formed a circle around Seungri and TOP.copyright protection263PENANAkYwOhDtNCx267Please respect copyright.PENANARg6YlLRDYz
Soon after lunch, we 267Please respect copyright.PENANAalCvamw1P2
went straight back to practising. This time, for a good six hours. We 267Please respect copyright.PENANAwUjS6DmGbP
had to do the dance routine over and over again to perfect it. This time267Please respect copyright.PENANAjzRdEG6bjp
around, I made sure not to make any mistake like I had been doing 267Please respect copyright.PENANABObbsPxpTU
earlier. This time, everything was coming out perfectly and I don't know267Please respect copyright.PENANA7ElGD0vtsu
how many times we had to do the routine all over again. But despite the267Please respect copyright.PENANAmuVlcBT6Ji

At some point in the 267Please respect copyright.PENANARdj5j2ElEZ
afternoon, our two managers and Lee came over to check on us and they 267Please respect copyright.PENANAeyNYNIe98b
were really impressed. Yang Hyun-suk thought filming the dance practise 267Please respect copyright.PENANAXMvsVkm1ml
will be helpful and that they would release it after the music video. 267Please respect copyright.PENANAxCCFSR3LtS

It was five and the sun 267Please respect copyright.PENANAX4UQLpWznM
was setting when we were finally done for the day. I was so tired that I267Please respect copyright.PENANAsN60pvEIc1
was lying on the floor. My body aching everywhere. Luckily, I wasn't 267Please respect copyright.PENANADPBTL0sshw

The choreographer had already left and the backup dancers also started to leave. G-Dragon and Taeyang left together.copyright protection263PENANA38k6196hGt267Please respect copyright.PENANAkKW1tl6tu0
While I was resting and 267Please respect copyright.PENANA3QtnrRtCXF
gathering up any ounce of energy I had left, Seungri was standing next 267Please respect copyright.PENANAvBtWIhKtlk
to my head and looking down on me. I looked up at him with a puzzled 267Please respect copyright.PENANATpaxjByKZL
look on my face.copyright protection263PENANAiGv38cyIX7267Please respect copyright.PENANA2L3D3nNKtP

"Ouch, that hurt!" I said.copyright protection263PENANAygrouzrMGd267Please respect copyright.PENANAkldNvawRxm

It was then that I remembered that I was supposed to meet Jehan at the café. I totally forgot.copyright protection263PENANADRb4NCLSbb267Please respect copyright.PENANAkrGfq8GqCz
"Oh, ya!" I quickly sat up on the floor and Christine followed. "We have to go."copyright protection263PENANAGJcsUC6fqe267Please respect copyright.PENANAKFNuttJ0Bk
"Go where?" Daniel asked, still lying down on the floor and looking at us.copyright protection263PENANA9ujqGz4BrG267Please respect copyright.PENANAkYmVlN8trg
"No where," I answered quickly. "We're just planning on going around the city for a drive."copyright protection263PENANA0OSoUT10pB267Please respect copyright.PENANAz1Y03Cx9IH
"I want to follow too," said Daniel.copyright protection263PENANAGPWh7meQHM267Please respect copyright.PENANANZoVDDUXqV
"Where did you say you were going?" came Mike who had been talking with Sam and Daesung.copyright protection263PENANAhD29C4RBDq267Please respect copyright.PENANA3UwCMzj0vt

"Why don't you want 267Please respect copyright.PENANAKfzFMhRbzt
these guys to go along?" Sam asked. I noticed that she still wasn't 267Please respect copyright.PENANA7zpdo1HkYT
looking at me. "You're just going for a drive. I see no reason for them 267Please respect copyright.PENANApNKj7C4K3k

I wanted to protest and 267Please respect copyright.PENANA2MTcbbQN67
refuse but then I realised that I wasn't supposed to talk to Sam. And 267Please respect copyright.PENANAmJGRWWBL7M
refusing her was going to be pointless because I already know Seungri 267Please respect copyright.PENANAFrdivXhClH
and TOP weren't going to deny her so easily.copyright protection263PENANAefeMfICe8j267Please respect copyright.PENANAm3owIyVaur

"Thanks, that's nice of 267Please respect copyright.PENANAtpxUrrfTh0

the others. "Have fun you, guys."copyright protection263PENANAiyj0aPlJYG267Please respect copyright.PENANAD72uCOevPb
Sam and Daesung left the267Please respect copyright.PENANAqrkWcAKZ51

myself that the two also made a nice pair.copyright protection263PENANAN3ZjFNgwnF267Please respect copyright.PENANAczTxqRhwV9

tell anyone. Not even Sam. No one."copyright protection263PENANAYs4KG7CRHi267Please respect copyright.PENANAgB743cY1sD

"You just couldn't refuse because you like her too much," I said, turning to face Seungri.copyright protection263PENANA6kGDhHRWYH267Please respect copyright.PENANAeaAbFvs7E4
Seungri shrugged and smiled. "What can I say? I've to obey the lovely queen, right?"copyright protection263PENANAwZYv96qcKb267Please respect copyright.PENANAIZNCpJY5Rp

"Fine," I said. "Someone tell them. I can't keep repeating myself with all this."copyright protection263PENANAhQNoLRlMj1267Please respect copyright.PENANASN5hwtAYRH

I got up from the floor 267Please respect copyright.PENANAskD4qGRdCf
with Daniel and I took my purse. We soon left the room and headed 267Please respect copyright.PENANAHHq9Z0YT8v
downstairs. Sam and Daesung had already left since there was no sign of 267Please respect copyright.PENANA0C8XHHJ73K
Daesung's car in the parking lot. Christine and I went with Seungri in 267Please respect copyright.PENANA8kU4LFdQeA
his car while Daniel and Mike went in TOP's car.copyright protection263PENANAZbDfqS3frq267Please respect copyright.PENANAzYbQMaY9jA

things didn't work out like it did yesterday? I hope not. Every now and 267Please respect copyright.PENANA1KMRgC8v00
then, I would open and check if the teddy bear was still in my purse.copyright protection263PENANAsAcjBGm3Bj267Please respect copyright.PENANA78raFFXgQl
"Can you you please stop267Please respect copyright.PENANAhuEDVcgLAk
doing that?" Christine asked from the back seat. "You might just drop 267Please respect copyright.PENANAHZggc3bTiU
the teddy and lose it in the car."copyright protection263PENANAeAZne8jiU7267Please respect copyright.PENANAT3xJCcR1fM

We were soon packed 267Please respect copyright.PENANAWQLbJwM58u
right outside the café and TOP's car parked right next to us. I took a 267Please respect copyright.PENANAI9dAKTqkuF
deep breath. Christine came over and put her hand on my shoulder. I 267Please respect copyright.PENANAVtrPh5WF6n
turned to look at her.copyright protection263PENANAB6Vn0t9ApZ267Please respect copyright.PENANA8EY4pqvmsT

smile at me. I don't know what I would have done without them. Their 267Please respect copyright.PENANAgFiM7b3Kwr
presence here gave me a little comfort. But I felt a small hole in my 267Please respect copyright.PENANAtJPMLHYfKD
chest and I wished Sam was here too.copyright protection263PENANAYeGnIoL4ty267Please respect copyright.PENANALE1GLtXu54
I soon got out of the 267Please respect copyright.PENANAReYIpHVoZs
car and there was a sudden chill in the air. Maybe it's because the sun 267Please respect copyright.PENANALp19EXaEG0
was setting that it started to get cold. I had my purse in my hand and I267Please respect copyright.PENANAHLK5z0IV5W
looked towards the café. I hope everything will go as planned.copyright protection263PENANAPLtlRP83y3267Please respect copyright.PENANAd5hiXavl3d
Before I could find my 267Please respect copyright.PENANAeas0FDA5t1
way into the café, TOP, Mike and Daniel waved at me through the windows 267Please respect copyright.PENANAHPzZq76Va9
of TOP's car and giving me a thumbs up. I smiled a little and waved 267Please respect copyright.PENANAvL4LdJYUs9
back. At least that gave me the confidence to go ahead.copyright protection263PENANAnUtNagopjI267Please respect copyright.PENANAW1yS9jq2R6
I quickly went in the 267Please respect copyright.PENANA2TGLa8HkVF
café and when I slowly stepped in, I looked around for Jehan. I spotted 267Please respect copyright.PENANAVe8RYgKyBQ
him right next to the huge glass window where we had last sat down 267Please respect copyright.PENANAvUfCgDbEwC
together. He was alone in his smart pressed black suit, as always.copyright protection263PENANANXiX86evBC267Please respect copyright.PENANATW8eqN1j8J
I slowly approached the 267Please respect copyright.PENANAkoqUJxJmkZ
table. His eyes never left me since I walked in the café. When I got to 267Please respect copyright.PENANAPUnVRsXtsp
the table, I sat facing him. My heart was beating so fast. I don't know 267Please respect copyright.PENANAKhxb8RiAVP
why I was so scared that things might go wrong and Jehan wouldn't 267Please respect copyright.PENANAypNc5t5Kw6
hesitate to end my life right here.copyright protection263PENANAttPK4uZiOd267Please respect copyright.PENANAEn5Jr9XWKE

I quickly reached out 267Please respect copyright.PENANATpZHSSA51d
for the purse on my lap, opened it and gave him the teddy bear. Jehan 267Please respect copyright.PENANAkt0MKpEVsB
reached out to take it and I couldn't help but feel relieved.copyright protection263PENANANbEoz8PSrm267Please respect copyright.PENANAF9OATCbGka
"There! You have your teddy," I said. "Can I go now?"copyright protection263PENANAHMhmHes7vu267Please respect copyright.PENANA4bgjqAo93e
"Wait." Jehan held up a finger when I was just about to stand up and leave. I sighed.copyright protection263PENANAyWYfZ5wjdE267Please respect copyright.PENANAVaOkU9yOYe
"What now?" I complained.copyright protection263PENANAEKgy0QKZT5267Please respect copyright.PENANAQsRO52NTto
"I need to check if all the diamonds are in here," said Jehan, shaking the teddy in his other hand.copyright protection263PENANAfWOGXbKxKI267Please respect copyright.PENANA0AH4GZaBFz
"What do you think? That267Please respect copyright.PENANAxKCZVPk3xP
I would steal from you?" I was really surprised that he didn't trust 267Please respect copyright.PENANA5W02SMZ874
me. "You pointed a gun to my head in Paris and I have done everything 267Please respect copyright.PENANASIdoR7oujl

Jehan raised an eyebrow 267Please respect copyright.PENANALVYoshTehy
at me. "Nice one, Zoey. You almost had me convinced. But I'm still going267Please respect copyright.PENANArgxHOxE4bU
to check. I've to make sure all the diamonds are in here before I make a267Please respect copyright.PENANAlMbwM0pYLs

"Fine." I folded my arms on the table. "If you don't believe me, then check it yourself. I know I'm innocent."copyright protection263PENANAySgBOumHaz267Please respect copyright.PENANAPxLXVtAjBp
"I know you're." Jehan gave me a smile and I looked away facing the window. It was getting really dark outside so fast.copyright protection263PENANAHbMbNjSYrv267Please respect copyright.PENANAnsz1JEFAaL
I went back to looking 267Please respect copyright.PENANAIQyoea2l7G
at Jehan who had laid the little teddy bear on the table and he dug into267Please respect copyright.PENANAYifJ3PpWug
the pockets of his suit and removed a small pocket knife. It didn't 267Please respect copyright.PENANA6nL7dmtfxn
surprise me that he carried that thing around.copyright protection263PENANADILYiscGqH267Please respect copyright.PENANA67FpwrdAnu
Jehan slowly laid the 267Please respect copyright.PENANAWWqWckPSyB
blade onto the little teddy's belly and cut through its tiny suit, 267Please respect copyright.PENANA2KVvPO6DRW
dissecting the teddy bear. This reminded me of science class back in 267Please respect copyright.PENANA3WRHjcAN7g
high school when we were told to dissect a frog. Doing that was so 267Please respect copyright.PENANAwDTVa7TpT5
disgusting that I ended up purking all over Sam's shoes, who was my 267Please respect copyright.PENANA401hKGjFGn
science partner. This time, it was just cotton stuffing that came out of267Please respect copyright.PENANAw9GCDx8HKo
the teddy bear.copyright protection263PENANAHy4xCDnCoi267Please respect copyright.PENANAJmctvUyYm1
Wait. I frowned. This 267Please respect copyright.PENANAQlqPqV8OT4
isn't right. I raised an eyebrow when Jehan kept on removing cotton 267Please respect copyright.PENANADLGNXXO3By
stuffings and there was no sign of the diamonds. Where were the 267Please respect copyright.PENANAdPFyQo7aNS
diamonds!copyright protection263PENANAwwgz9jYlmX267Please respect copyright.PENANAS7hmCVNMP2

the scene on the table. There was tiny cotton stuffings everywhere and 267Please respect copyright.PENANA8iyr5P12jE

I looked up at Jehan and267Please respect copyright.PENANAd5JBl1bs93
he was as surprised as I was. His mouth was wide open and he couldn't 267Please respect copyright.PENANAiiRiCrlNUY
stop looking at the dissected teddy. If he kept on looking at it like 267Please respect copyright.PENANAgQejpyft0S
that, he was going to end up traumatised.copyright protection263PENANA4yZVpoatkd267Please respect copyright.PENANAFv4hAkncPa

But how could this be? 267Please respect copyright.PENANA1Ukc9MRvRz
Where did the diamonds go? It's not like the teddy bear could just poop 267Please respect copyright.PENANAFFIr3cwrAp
out diamonds since it wasn't alive or anything. Something weird was 267Please respect copyright.PENANAxyxnu6utgP
going on. And I wasn't like liking it at all.copyright protection263PENANA54oIU7PncX267Please respect copyright.PENANAgrZXR17D2w

He banged his fists on 267Please respect copyright.PENANAADZzqIsFKM
the table so loudly that he startled not only me, but everyone else in 267Please respect copyright.PENANAqCthLVHktm

Jehan, whose eyes were as red as a bull's, staring at me.copyright protection263PENANA2517F68oKJ267Please respect copyright.PENANA67QTl9BzIV

Jehan rubbed his 267Please respect copyright.PENANAt8PfEDFfYs
forehead and sighed as he leaned back further into his seat. He seemed 267Please respect copyright.PENANA7kSzcxB4V0

"Ummm," I looked down 267Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9hnK2D6NW

taking care of the teddy bear this whole time."copyright protection263PENANAFpRIgzTm8l267Please respect copyright.PENANAaSjw5LVhUD
"What?" Jehan sounded surprised. "What do you mean?"copyright protection263PENANApVFzWPzVnQ267Please respect copyright.PENANAaeMBNn30fL
"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.copyright protection263PENANA4ED13xF2SV267Please respect copyright.PENANA8VtSKSZ5lK
"Who had the teddy bear?" Jehan leaned closer, his eyes not leaving mine.copyright protection263PENANADiDv4X9WKN267Please respect copyright.PENANAyu2vB6t046
"Lee had it before I took it from her yesterday."copyright protection263PENANA3KxbnkZvHV267Please respect copyright.PENANAg3ZSt0kTmd
"Oh, my gosh!" Jehan 267Please respect copyright.PENANAydMBkcgPwi
covered his face with his hands and I could see this wasn't going too 267Please respect copyright.PENANAfGlpU6iJsz
well for him. "Could she have the diamonds?"copyright protection263PENANAW6A9ER5Njz267Please respect copyright.PENANAuvvy3KXRcz
"I don't think so. Lee 267Please respect copyright.PENANAKnJgGCZEei

she would've said something. No way. She can't have the diamonds."copyright protection263PENANA8R3xUdBP3I267Please respect copyright.PENANAEidVPtKAe5

"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."copyright protection263PENANAsGeeSQp6FP267Please respect copyright.PENANAwqrOhBA3cS
"Maybe you don't know Lee well enough. If this is the same teddy I had sent, where could the diamonds be?"copyright protection263PENANAx8TNo1SOK5267Please respect copyright.PENANAdnLJ8peVs4

After I said that, Jehan267Please respect copyright.PENANAaRPiaL3EAU
quickly took the dissected teddy bear in his hands and looked at it 267Please respect copyright.PENANAbQcWbS6P2a
carefully. He turned the teddy, looking at its back side and tearing the267Please respect copyright.PENANA6R0fXUDXBm
suit away. I wondered what he was looking for because he had a serious 267Please respect copyright.PENANAiVQw8NL2Qh
look on his face.copyright protection263PENANAYc7K0fwDWN267Please respect copyright.PENANANiaxvrKFAn
"You're right," said Jehan. "This is definitely another teddy bear and not the one I sent you."copyright protection263PENANAqM2CBz134s267Please respect copyright.PENANAu0Fg1MAVf7
"Wait, how do you know?" I asked.copyright protection263PENANApCuWnDDULU267Please respect copyright.PENANAxRMhKg6FDv
"I remember one of my 267Please respect copyright.PENANANWMER0TUpK

"Huh? I can't start 267Please respect copyright.PENANANVBcgBAF8K
searching for it now. It would look suspicious. And I can't start asking267Please respect copyright.PENANAzTkwZZucKQ
Lee if she bought another teddy just like this one. She already knows 267Please respect copyright.PENANAiGgnIq2EBP
that the bear is missing."copyright protection263PENANAhGXCIqHgj2267Please respect copyright.PENANA5QRJST5Jlz

I was being threatened by this guy. Though his threats didn't scare me 267Please respect copyright.PENANAZyCbh2JaSl

I nodded my head and 267Please respect copyright.PENANAEbaAYRGeid
that made him smile even more. He soon stood up from his seat and looked267Please respect copyright.PENANAneSAFdmQIL
down at me. I looked back at him without a saying a word.copyright protection263PENANA9VHKWOg0YF267Please respect copyright.PENANA4AarCqIYl7

I sat there as I buried 267Please respect copyright.PENANAWs7kesirrF
my face in my hands, thinking of what to do. Again, everything was 267Please respect copyright.PENANA3BxfXmVTlt
ruined. First, the interruption from TOP and Seungri yesterday. Now, the267Please respect copyright.PENANAJw2WiKkkL7
teddy bear had been swapped with another. My life couldn't get any 267Please respect copyright.PENANA9TP9Oe7RC1

"Zoey, what happened?" Christine asked, as she turned to look on what was on the table.copyright protection263PENANAfM5pMKIiJy267Please respect copyright.PENANAX51k0p1bIY
I could hear footsteps 267Please respect copyright.PENANATyjL95e1gN

when they saw the look on my face.copyright protection263PENANAJ3KIf17HzS267Please respect copyright.PENANAcj8FUR4N2c

"And what about Lee?" 267Please respect copyright.PENANAA3exFQZdnh
Christine asked. "She was the one who last had the teddy before Zoey 267Please respect copyright.PENANAL9XYeyBhLk
took it. But what doesn't make any sense is why she would want to get 267Please respect copyright.PENANAyTNiFdplI5
another teddy when she had asked me last night where Mr Teddy had gone 267Please respect copyright.PENANAVWO0xaXQ0v
to."copyright protection263PENANA5sI3ehFayt267Please respect copyright.PENANAcyvOGgTknb

little while. "Why would Sam have the teddy? And if she did, how could 267Please respect copyright.PENANAju9WlRuU1O

TOP and Seungri looked 267Please respect copyright.PENANAbAQlSrpwEH
at each other after I said that. What was up with them? The look they 267Please respect copyright.PENANAHQ9FbP9NtE

it away.copyright protection263PENANAiPIAUELT7y267Please respect copyright.PENANAFKKhYpgKgY

"That's true," said 267Please respect copyright.PENANATkKVeor10d
Mike. "Come to think of it, I don't think Sam has it. For her to swap 267Please respect copyright.PENANAfUISEBZ0Sb
