Zoey's P.O.V1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4WL6TqwZd
Waking up this Monday 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8VvWuZ5Jb
morning was hectic. I didn't want to get out of bed, but in one way or 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3Nzc92C03
another, I would have to. I lay awake, thinking. I didn't want to face 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjexTNzAjN
off the challenges for today knowing that one of them was dealing with 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkJ8lsqIcx
Jehan. Since I still have the teddy bear, I wasn't as free as I expected1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhhG4wmIQZ
myself to be.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgujmZ2yYLC
I couldn't stop 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo28px47ZTG
wondering what Seungri and TOP were doing at the mall yesterday. As much1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUvrtJIlXL
as I wanted to believe that it was a coincidence, I couldn't help but 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCyJbBGXGI
feel that something was wrong.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzx3urGY4V
Could they have known 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVEOQG9dOq
about Jehan? And if they did, then how? I shook my head. Maybe all that 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVrZWBHRx5
was nothing but a coincidence and I was just being paranoid. If they 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmwsfBXRVp
really had found out about Jehan, they would have been asking questions 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpKqfW6QAZ
about him and what he does while we were shopping. But they didn't. We 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YQU84uEJr
just had our usual conversation.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEGJOR07wz
I brushed off all those 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwGMkhuMMV
thoughts aside when the alarm on my phone rang telling me to get up. The1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTNj3Js2xJ
last time I had ever put up an alarm was the morning of my last day of 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUpUBX9jUk
high school. Eversince I became a musician, I never put up an alarm when1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMgz1f62Zs
I knew I had someone around to wake me up. Like Sam.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXokYKMFPhG
But now that she wasn't 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRixX5LM2sl
here, I had to wake up on my own. Most of the time, I would do so 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpp8BN1uG1l
without her help. But when I overslept, she was always there to wake me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzC0imCNZCY
Anyway, right now, I was just too troubled in my sleep that I must have1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFz814sW2J
woken up early before the alarm rang.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYrALQZFpE
I sat up on my bed and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEWI0Ci2kC
switched off the alarm. I checked the empty bed beside mine and I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpffMvkjLT
couldn't help but realise how much I miss Sam. I don't know why I was 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73wwchnxJI
feeling this way, but I hated the fact that I was missing her so bad. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifxbtiRdoX
Not after what happened yesterday at the mall and all over social media.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLv2xoWsFsr
After seeing her with 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2JPMxL34i
G-Dragon yesterday broke my heart further into tiny pieces. As much as I1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SpgXxQPFI
knew she was only there just to try and resolve things with G-Dragon, I1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKik94DUpYh
was filled with fury seeing the two of them together. And to make 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFa8p6Tqzq1
matters worse, after I had left the mall, I went online and there were 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpw2Rjit9x3
pictures of the two everywhere. They were a trending topic for the whole1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GXpY4Q9Ns
day. That left me devastated.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITx2w7nAKB
I couldn't stop looking 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmqvFSNpPT
at pictures online even when I came back to the hotel. I read so many 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcG4cMFEnxG
comments. As much as there were so many haters around (like myself), so 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjzB1ZYUZ1
many people couldn't stop talking about how adorable the two looked 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbV86rNPRfc
together. I couldn't help but admit to myself that they were right. They1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuApFqFsOF5
really did make a cute couple. And that left me envious. I wished it 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTu1ChzpkC
was G-Dragon and I. Not G-Dragon and Sam.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rzbbOD2BJ
That sent me boiling to a1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yhmEo3dgw
point where I almost threw my phone away. When Christine came to see me1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0VakWhHNR
in my room and found me in an angry fit, I told her how painful I felt 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqnkaTEAhY
seeing G-Dragon and Sam together.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEefbpAVy9v
Christine had told me to1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Dza2Pvztt
cool down and that I shouldn't be jealous. She told me that Sam was 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQ6I72gFy1
only with G-Dragon because she was only trying to resolve things. I told1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4u7GGeYKYz
her that I already knew that. Christine quickly left me to myself when 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqBFHyvRkE
she realised that she couldn't calm me down. So I was alone for the rest1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2O34ulOqWY
of the day, not speaking to anyone. I didn't even join the others for 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BoxgHPVAC
supper. I had ordered for my supper to be taken up to my room.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQq38it0RV
And now, I had to face 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIynnVjjX4P
another challenge of seeing everyone today, most especially Sam, since 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5W02yWfaJv
we have to finish up on the dance routine and start working on the music1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jevNPBWKU
video as soon as possible. I have to put up with all this today when I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqs0itGN01
was still so upset.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxvd0ELhMX
I quickly got out of bed and went in the showers, hoping the cool water would cool down all the boiling anger in me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOumB1XITR
After I was done, I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKEFF1MiCi
quickly dressed up. And carrying my purse with me, I went to meet the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLHFlGeus3
others at the dining table for breakfast.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJW7h5dTLJN
I found them already 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLGOJadQTa
settled. When I came to sit, everyone mouthed out a "good morning" to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxcFRlQEBe
me, except Sam. And I replied back with a smile on my face.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBt1dEEBGjC
I felt a little awkward 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkyb8Yj87G
when I looked at Sam who sat across the table next to Collins and hadn't1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxJLLZ2mwZ
said a word. She was busy with her breakfast, her usual bacon, eggs and1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPkBP1jpx5
toast with juice. I realised she hadn't even looked up at me once and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡol8HIvuwOo
that also felt weird.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDNV8KFYeL
I know that she and I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVR8VsU3Fcw
aren't talking to each other at the moment, but I expected her to say a 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqj218e7PEJ
"good morning" or even look at me to acknowledge that I was around. She 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZ6jek8glU
was one person even if we ever had an argument, she would at least try 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNswA13gliF
to say something to me. The fact that she didn't greet me, made me feel 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkWLAJMeLj
like something was wrong.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKm9iuCt31r
I poured myself a cup of1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtg9V6J3pfY
coffee, trying to ignore what I was feeling at the moment. I got some 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF20Vzjudkp
slices of toast and ate my breakfast.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BPtcy91Jd
"Hey, Sam," said Mike, who sat right next to her. "Have you seen what people have been saying about you and G-Dragon?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6L2ViiktEB
My heart almost skipped a1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡauknphCT4P
beat and I almost choked on my coffee. What was Mike getting at? I know1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFAsSPGQz6
he does things just to annoy me sometimes, but this time, he's gone way1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5twjyLcx2z
too far. I was over here! Hello!1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhhHtw0i1U
"You don't have to remind me," Sam said as she looked at her brother. "I've decided not to go online today."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuk0Jhs5ofX
"For one who doesn't like attention, you might just disappear off the face of the earth," said Collins.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeR6G2NYK4Z
"I can do that," said Sam, staring up at the ceiling obviously building castles in the air.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzZEImeIFu
"I have no doubt about it."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuKQ7xHOFW
"But I don't see why you1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3SHXZIxkl
have to," said Daniel. "Just because people make stories about you and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkeIMfI3x9
G-Dragon dating, doesn't mean that you are."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6ltW548B1
"One thing about fans is1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHuztdwaGY
that they can make a story so believable, even those who don't know 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0yO9hn6UZ
what's going on, might end up believing it," said Christine.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCV4E54c4r
"I know," said Lee. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXuyEgCu9u
"Right now, some k-pop news sites are already taking this to the next 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UdrD4gXA2
level. But they all say they couldn't be too sure about it until they 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtSLvKwC2z
get an official statement from you and G-Dragon."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwC2zaIWPIC
"Wow, that's serious," said Sam.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzn1w3LNZd8
"But right now, we have no time for interviews," said Collins. "We have a music video to work on."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEEcudXxKK
"I can work with that," said Sam, with a smile on her face.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIj9IPkplhc
"Alright, guys, finish your breakfast. You know the drill."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBCL1IVSJk
"Aye, aye," said Daniel.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ISN0QzwUH
"Well, you're quiet today, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me. She sat directly across from me on the table.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLTl8eCocv
"Do you have a problem with that?" I asked, eyeing Christine.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡersZF0gJAE
"You're just too quiet, that's all."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx94Sm1c4Vk
"You should be quiet more often," said Collins as he got up from the table. "It kind of suits you."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCPmdeXuqF
I frowned at Collins. "Thanks. I'll try doing so more often. That's if I really want to."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMco21Gji8M
"Now that's the Zoey I know," said Mike, raising his eyebrow at me and smiling.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaw7TnJESrd
I stuck my tongue out at1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3dPPZMp5R
him but he continued to smile mockingly nonetheless. I noticed that the1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUd9ju2OeY
others were laughing and smiling at the whole thing, except Sam. She 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrDOU59vqS
still wasn't looking in my direction.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpPOl5v3pg
Soon after breakfast, we1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimQrazsR3w
left for YG. In the SUV, Sam sat at the back with her brothers. We were1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSua7IBdwU
all chatting happily in the car but she was quiet the whole way. She 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJ5lvzRvCo
was like that nowadays, always lost in thought. I wondered what she 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeW4EgYgYNS
could be thinking about. Sam was one person who never really shared what1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJwXf6SOFx
she thought. When you asked her about it, she would usually say 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvtuNyhCP5
"nothing" and say no more. But if she really wanted to share with you, 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkZjfFS4Eg
she would.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnfkBODUFU
We arrived at YG and we 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzY0kiRanz
found ourselves back at the dance studio we were practising in on 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNV66O7oQZL
Saturday. We found our dance instructor and all the BigBang members with1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1WLVNMq30
the rest of the backup dancers, waiting for us.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5XIb5cCfX
When everyone was 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlF3gJ9IAK3
exchanging greetings with each other, G-Dragon didn't respond to me when1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbGPCF2IzY
I said "hi" to him. Given with what happened yesterday, I bet he was 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIkHEDv6TG
still mad at me for how I behaved towards Sam. He didn't even want to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMS4LwBl35
hang out with us soon after Sam had left.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHURJ3gc1T
He not responding to me 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUvnrmobTo
felt awkward and I longed for him to at least give me some attention. He1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxp95eVpv0
didn't say "hi" to Sam either but just nodded his head when she greeted1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVo2YsqhJG
him. At least that was acknowledging someone even if they weren't 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1x2w3S18S
talking to each other. And he was staring at her the whole time even 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jLjo0QI7t
when she wasn't looking. I thought of throwing a shoe at him, but I just1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPbiDlFqft
looked away instead.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9k4uDxzsN
We went straight to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx09F1xX644
practising for almost a good five hours. And those proved to be the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxOUTLbFCf
hardest five hours of my life. Since the dance routine starts with 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk03yuS8ysp
G-Dragon and I, it was really hard having him so close. I realised that I1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikt1jwKf1n
still had feelings for him. At some point during practise, I almost 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Tb7SYAmNp
hugged him, but I brought myself not to. And that wasn't the worst part.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctewa5bggw
During pratice, I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNNSKJVBuP
noticed that G-Dragon still couldn't take his eyes off Sam. This was 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo83u0OftHa
getting to the point where I wanted to scream at him to snap out of it. I1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTojuPokCiE
wondered what he saw in Sam and that sent me thinking.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGUeYCERop
G-Dragon wasn't the only1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4WSlZ6ws6
one who liked Sam. Come to think of it, Daesung also liked her. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMR0v1sxCx
Probably even Seungri and TOP, given that Seungri had a beautiful crown 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFWsIf15JO
made just for her and TOP flirts with her whenever he gets the chance 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhl4qcXPvoT
to. Taeyang already had Hyo-rin and always takes Sam like a sister. What1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGoRo3G8Gx
did Sam have that even most of the BigBang members like her so much?1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04Z6jU7R7J
As her best friend, I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScVKMnDHYM
should be aware of her qualities. She was nice and friendly to whoever 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnUpskqrYH
approached her. She is very pretty and had a great body, though she was 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtBZWujAlg
never ever fully aware of her physical beauty. She always thought she 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPgBWgp65D
was like any other ordinary girl but she was more than that.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkexWRVYjmK
She is also smart, 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMIWtL7lom
caring and always understanding. She is a great leader and one who 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBnq4x2j55
always had our backs whenever we needed it. I don't know how many times 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGz6LZisqFs
she had always tried to get The Toxins out of trouble. I agree that even1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJA6Ly3f6cW
if it looked like we don't appreciate what she does, we really do.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKIWsoOUuS
Sam has a lot of good 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3QznGRxsj
qualities. Maybe that's why she is liked and loved by everyone. Even her1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjo1ggnBCrt
fans. She is honest, when she wanted to. She is also a pretty good 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRJvp6exb0
liar, only when it was necessary to do so. And she is one who wouldn't 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2S4gbFdeR
want to hurt anyone around her.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4zn8wuD4W
Realising this made me 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mYoXlUpYt
feel a little guilty as I looked at Sam who was dancing in front of me 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FDiSvgUhK
with Taeyang beside her. I looked at her face and she had this smile 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSJ5PAEHnp
that reflected her innocence. I realised that I had been giving Sam a 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkL2theTK61
real hard time after I found out G-Dragon likes her and not me. She is 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0R8ShDs4sS
my best friend and would do nothing to hurt me. I know she was only 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxNvzDZkva
looking out for me like she always does, but I am just too ignorant to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtylRczG34p
realise it till now.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99z6lPMHHS
"Wait, hold on a minute guys," said the choreographer. We all stopped dancing as instructed.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiReWDPoD64
"Zoey, you aren't 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtQ5jBptVp
concentrating," said the choreographer as he looked at me. "This is the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLAvf65ahB
second time you have made the same mistake."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdZeux0A3T
"Oh, sorry," I said, scratching the back of my head feeling embarrassed. "I'll try to be more cautious next time."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡophwJTPWYH
"Okay. Let's continue from where we left off."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vlOLOiLAR
It was lunch the time we1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgF4xxlydsi
broke off for a break. The choreographer left and the others were 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBKsq9iQAF
talking to some of the backup dancers. I noticed Sam at the corner of 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaw5keJr5r
the room with Christine and some of the backup dancers talking. It 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmDoWWMNpN
looked like they were having one hell of a funny conversation because 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKSYosfEdw
they were all laughing.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6kMpXEf0g
"Hey, why are you here all alone?" came TOP as he came to stand right next to me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8ot76c9Gp
"Nothing," I replied, looking down at my sneakers. "I just want to be alone today."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Hnc06y3Nt
"Still not talking to Sam?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yGM5KakuS
"Nope."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtQpeH4aHt
TOP's lips rose to a smile. "You really are stubborn."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3JzxwJs6G
"Too bad it's in my DNA." I smirked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AJZ2X8Ua4
"And how long do you think you're going to put up with it?" TOP folded his arms as he looked at me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XPbzctPpk
"Maybe till we go home." I shrugged my shoulders.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDNFv28NoI
"I doubt it. Judging by the way you performed today, you looked really preoccupied that you made several mistakes."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvK41cXEfrG
"Being preoccupied is Sam's thing."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNXIRbBFBP
"I know. But you aren't 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXp6teO7AXr
yourself, that's for sure. The Zoey I know wouldn't be here all alone. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoH8RjljiOb
You would be chit chatting like you always do."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWiMy7xE0tH
"What if I just want to be alone for today?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2vhInILAD
"It's okay. Everyone has those kinds of days. But you make it look like being alone sometimes is a bad thing."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YTr2wKnXU
I frowned. "Why?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKlcGRBa3Q
"Because you look miserable."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDrtvY6qAz
I didn't expect that coming from TOP. My mouth was agape as I looked at him.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBL7Np6zTo
"Miserable!"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VGmy4ukPJ
"Ya." TOP nodded his head. "It clearly shows."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKbHqNjSc0
I thought for a moment 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUXAYz9Tbd
and went back to looking at Sam and Christine with the backup dancers. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZelugnQvij
Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel had also formed their own little 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnO5feCSUxk
circle and were laughing and chatting too. Taeyang and G-Dragon were 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5fuII8lo8
with some of the backup dancers, having a normal chat.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDpHoIgozp
Seeing all this in front1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjChjr93m1
of me made me realise that TOP is right. I am definitely miserable. By 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSV1PPFsht7
now, I would be with the others, chatting. But here I was, all alone. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXYeQZbznn
Until TOP came to talk to me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzdRJTYRqe
"I guess you're right," I said. "I am miserable."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSoNFHSRnK
"Don't worry about it. Aren't you going to resolve things with Sam?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZaaoNU73A
"I don't know," I said 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WlChUaFa6
as I looked at Sam who was laughing out loud. "I'm still mad at her, but1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAjaKuOsoW
something in me says that I can't stay like this for long."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QzEd9MRv7
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.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfejgkYuyv
"I felt so bad about it," I said, shaking my head.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjtdnFgkti
"Then why don't you talk to her?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufCX1KjYuC
"Pfft!" I rolled my eyes. "Why should I? Sam always does all the talking."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaA8toKUM3
"Really? You think Sam would do that this time around? Besides, she wasn't really at fault with all this."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPt10l9JOD
"I know."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQ9qtJa6jN
"So? Are you going to try and talk to her yourself?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyF68qqvWV
"I'll think about it."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhkRJRXcna
"Hey, guys," came Seungri, suddenly calling out to everyone in the room. "Who wants pizza?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDN3tYIX3Dr
Everyone muttered out "me!" really loud. Seungri smiled and said he would bring the pizza.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DFBLvhvcu
"Mind if you guys can help me?" Seungri asked as he came up to TOP and I.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5dSOzWVdL
"Sure," I said. I really needed to get out of here for a while and breathe.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3EP3KLKnz
The three of us went out1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJcJKDNggs
of the room and headed to the elevator to take us downstairs. Seungri 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jCF1EYDxb
already had his phone out calling the pizza parlour to take the order.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbssAWL3yC
As soon as we reached the ground floor, we stuck around in the lobby waiting for the pizza.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLN0djkwAt
"I'm so hungry," said Seungri, staring at his watch.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsPvLfSq0q
"Chill, you just ordered1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRGSItLLeV
pizza like right now," said TOP who was sitting right next to me on one1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQE9VCjgcmH
of the chairs in the waiting area of the lobby.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWO5E7VQ3I
"But I'm so hungry."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItI5ELpi1Q
"Trust me, you aren't 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrtjMPPn9e
the only one," I said as I looked at Seungri who was still standing. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6Q0NFeEed
"Sit down or else you're going to drain the last remaining blood you 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonZ9RVTI9v
have."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsMKmH37Hw
"Well, that's mean," said Seungri as he sat next to me. "What's up with you?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1dXtwgX2o
"Nothing," I said as I folded my arms.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOkJ0Ick1b
"She's cranky, don't mind her," said TOP.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkwxEGkbaO
"I'm not cranky. Just having an awful day."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4aBdol8gEi
"Ya, we can see that," said Seungri with a smirk on his face.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrcVrN5QpA
I didn't say anything as1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHkUtBeFXe
I shook my head. All of the sudden, I felt my phone vibrate against my 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPzbm5t5oa
thigh in the pocket of my sweat pants. I took out my phone. Jehan was 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXy1Ysuzpjg
calling.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4Rx6migcX
"Isn't it that French guy we met yesterday at the mall?" TOP asked, looking at my phone screen.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCGYpHyTBt
"Can you please not look!" I said as I turned the phone screen away from TOP's eyes.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGyqM8r7mMA
"Okay, well you better answer that call."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6Ur1HHtu1
I stood from the chair and answered Jehan's call when I was a few feet away from the two.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YLItMx9ak
"Hello," I answered.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgbX34AMFW
"Hey, Zoey," said Jehan. "Are you busy today?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxELdY6ZA8M
"Ya, I'm very busy," I answered. "Why?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33zIJYIVxM
"We have to meet today, ASAP."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjm0cdqUOd
"But I can't. I have a lot to do today and I don't think I'll manage to meet with you."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJW0KWMIRS6
"I don't care. I need that teddy bear today. Not tomorrow, but today."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvyQNkCISL
I knew Jehan was going 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOizlW01P1
to call and demand for the teddy bear. Luckily, I carried my purse with 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OiNH8rRIT
the teddy bear in it. I hadn't removed it from my purse since yesterday 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUH9zj5RMT
and I checked to see if it was still in there this morning. The purse 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZnOC8UPmR
was upstairs in the dance studio.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzq7AKxGS6
"Okay, what time do you want to get the teddy bear?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73Or8tH2s8
"I'm coming to YG to get it."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1We600QIx0
"What!" I was horrified and equally surprised. "No way. You can't come here."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvdgygRnrA
"Fine. If you have a better idea, then call me or text in the next thirty minutes. I have to get that teddy today."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOApCYOfn3G
"You don't have to remind me," I snarled.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXurfWWFjAq
He cut the call and I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFaRH5cbKx
looked at my phone like I was ready to throw it out of the lobby through1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUL6hsg6MKj
the open entrance doors. This was bad. Real bad. He wanted to come here1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2xIt7I1Nz
to get the teddy. That was going to be dangerous. If anyone were to see1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIbaWMoroD
him they would start to ask questions.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgeDqPBN4n
"Zoey," came Seungri's voice behind me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgn1ayeWnX
I turned around and there stood Seungri and TOP staring at me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF96nKdN71s
"What?" I asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ca1tvSRVm
"Was that Jehan you were talking to?" TOP asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnuH06JIw2
"Um, ya. Is there a problem?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOcJpbsTLU
"You two didn't seem to be having a normal conversation," said Seungri. "It sounded like you were arguing or something."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL059wdqnjU
"Arguing? Pfft. No," I gave out a small laugh trying to hide my fear. "It was just some silly misunderstanding."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHqArjRWFs
"Come on, Zoey," said TOP. "That was no ordinary misunderstanding and I know an argument when I see one."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoczfFUDxfW
"Guys, it's nothing. You're worrying for no reason."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcmGoLOQ6D
"Oh, ya? Then why were you talking about that teddy bear then? It's that small cute teddy he had sent you, right?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqSJGHEaFz
Dang it! I was cornered 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabRV1LK10S
now. They had heard about the teddy. I couldn't come up with a lie. If 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyg4kVb4K7
anything, I'm a terrible liar. Looks like the truth will always come to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡko2Ev3cbFU
light no matter how much you try to hide it.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdn2xSqom7
"Tell us, Zoey," said Seungri softly. "It can show on your face that something is wrong."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTb6bvaDo3e
I sighed as I looked down on the floor. "Fine. But don't tell anyone."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdJnjGVTtJ
"Okay. Now tell us what's going on," said TOP.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzopYTuk1j
We went back to settle down on the chairs. We were at a reasonable distance away from the receptionist so I could talk quietly.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOemoQyHfrr
I told them everything 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWA6ZyXuBw
from what happened in Paris till now. They listened carefully and hadn't1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9qT8LhQf0
said a word until I finished the whole story.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgiLVXus5C
"Have you told anyone about all this?" Seungri asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopJafqyn2Z
"Just you two," I answered.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblCWZDXh7l
"Wow, this is serious," said TOP, trying to take it all in. "He's a diamond smuggler?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgd2foCHxgz
"Surprising, right?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxGp0tn8gK
"He seemed so nice when we met him," said Seungri.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEyvp47DUM
"We should involve the police," said TOP.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmS5Q8NlIvh
"No! We can't!"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37zCw0ZnM0
"Why?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZXH4sZjsl
"You know word goes out 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyoK1lId9x
fast. The next thing we know, it's going to be all over social media and1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOVRwh3AbP
might give The Toxins a bad name. I would rather do this quietly."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw77DlAXnfs
"And how are you so sure he isn't going to use you again?" Seungri asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBThtAJImBS
"He assured me that this1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcneGgLjM34
will be the last time he will ever use me to do any of his dirty 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNZ2FrXuVx
business. I just have to give him the teddy bear and that's it."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3iWxkiEdy
"Give who the teddy bear?" came Christine's voice.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ23g7RMJV9
The three of us turned 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJoM4TkazI
and we saw Christine standing a few feet away from us. We hadn't heard 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4aqcnTwRb
the elevator doors open nor her footsteps. How did she get here unheard?1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnL51wn4tMf
"Christine, you're here?" I raised my eyebrows.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNr3J3xPyPr
"Ya, I came to check up on you guys since some of us are really hungry," said Christine.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOdkjg97c9
"The delivery guy hasn't arrived yet," said Seungri with a smile.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQpSMEMxde
"What's this about some guy and a teddy bear?" Christine asked as she looked at me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOI6IimQYJ
"Ummm, it's nothing, Christine," I said, waving my hand in the air. "Just talking about some random stuff."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40PT9SYwCD
"Random stuff involving a1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BZy56m3tr
teddy bear?" Christine shook her head at me as she folded her arms. "I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5cvk7fSUl
clearly heard you talking about giving some guy a teddy bear and that 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOziFH2d1u
you won't have to do his dirty business anymore. I know you're hiding 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1R9nuZC4PG
something from me, Zoey. So you better start talking."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcqZa31JOd
I rolled my eyes and sighed so loud in frustration. How many people was I going to tell the truth to today?1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYynNlxFnXk
"Fine," I said, looking at Christine. "But please don't tell anyone about this."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJrp3iWpRG
"Okay, I won't."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQVg1sZu9W
"Sit down."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiyAEzijPz
Christine sat right next to TOP and she looked at me with anticipation.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hgzVxZWAc
"I got myself into trouble," I started.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66oIrxgzP4
"Great!" Christine threw her arms in the air. "What did you do now, Zoey?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGqX98OWcw
"I got involved with a diamond smuggler."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCI4uuPx7CI
Christine's face soon 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yZuMFB9qJ
drained of colour and she looked as white as a ghost. She tried to open 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7bgYf49AQ
her mouth to say something but she couldn't. Until....1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOuPyc7tpn
"What!"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZAH7m57qI
TOP quickly covered up 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2pFejH7KW
her mouth before she could shout out anything else. The receptionist 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqryhbfrpvW
looked our way and soon went back to work. When he was sure she had 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfssKfQ9dt
cooled down, TOP removed his hand from Christine's mouth.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mThZRGBWB
"Are you cool now?" TOP asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4lyQpEuT9
"Cool?" asked Christine, sounding anxious. "I come here and hear about some diamond smuggler. How can I be cool?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEjgXiLFQr
"I know you're really mad at me right now, but you asked what was going on," I said, looking apologetically at her.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcoLiX1oau
"Of course I'm mad!" 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbYwoVOt6g
Christine whispered angrily at me. "I know you always get in trouble, 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWpKA6hqX9
but this by far is the worst one of them all."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP765Tt4KRr
"At least it's not a drug dealer," I said shrugging my shoulders.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKS2Xp0JXgT
"Is there a difference? Seriously, Zoey. How the heck did this happen?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IeV9W1HVI
"It happened in Paris," I said. "Remember the guy I introduced you to at the fashion show?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYMmnEF1Fc
"Ya, I remember. What about him?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGN9DbK3ri
"He's the diamond smuggler," said TOP.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0DBRgHseS
"WHAT!"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Jqx3EM7Ea
"Ssh!" TOP, Seungri and I hushed at her at the same time, putting our fingers on our lips.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnaLE9lfjO
"Guys, I can't help it, sorry," said Christine. "Wait, that handsome guy is the diamond smuggler?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpJ0YA0ppi
"And the one I met at the café," I said.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpe1YUbGbe
"So he is the one who sent us the teddy bear?" Christine asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguq3SyEai5
"Yes," the three of us answered at the same time.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gLYTbOa1m
"But why does he want the teddy bear back?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeFVIChAnv
"Because the teddy has diamonds in it," said Seungri.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj00dEdgk10
"Wow, seriously?" Christine's eyes bulged out with surprise.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NaERLIuJq
"Ya," I said. "I planned1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOdjmBVF9P
on giving him the teddy bear yesterday but I couldn't because these 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QCvD85B5d
guys showed up." I pointed at Seungri and TOP with my two thumbs.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbacx7b7Fft
"So you're the one who 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Cvcwmxfv3
got the teddy from our room yesterday," said Christine. "Lee was 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5slOTOCWEy
searching for it and couldn't find it. She thought she must have 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQylTabDFV
misplaced it somewhere. You even went to meet him? I thought you went 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6YM6ZlXWs
out with Seungri."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2QMNgUBRt
"I lied."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJh3SbKm5S
Christine shook her head. "I knew something was up. You are really not good at lying."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeyqfz5YNs
"I know." I gave Christine a grim look, not feeling impressed about myself at all.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Vb1ycz7Ty
"Why didn't you tell us you were being threatened by this guy?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdqKEuRjFp
"I wasn't supposed to. And besides, it was too dangerous. He threatened me with a gun in Paris not to tell anyone."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzLeYNyzCo
"That's great. There are guns too. Blackmail would have been so much better."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI669olAvZ0
"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."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpU5wl00yY8
"Then why didn't you let him?" Christine asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlW05nWu9S
"That was going to raise a lot of questions if anyone saw him," said Seungri.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPf54pmccPN
"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."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLcv5nECKN
"He said I should have a location as to where we meet," I said. "And I haven't thought of anything yet."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktzFNJApiZ
"Why don't you meet after practice?" TOP suggested.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZ817Ru2G0
"But where?" I asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZTaIJS7OJ
"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.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hMlbx1pea
"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.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJqxxIqupP
"Fine, but remember, don't tell anyone," I said.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5qhIkR6Vz
"Got it," said TOP and Seungri at the same time. Christine nodded her head.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡua89Hv1otx
I took my phone out and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fIrwPAKsf
texted Jehan that we should meet at the café after practise some time in1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhlZFJHujd
the evening. He replied saying that he would be there.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNk2BwVyQjC
"Okay, it's settled," I said as I put my phone back in my pocket.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DdStWNZSK
"Yay! The pizza is here," said Seungri as he stood up and approached the pizza delivery man coming in through the entrance.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuyycBHQI9
Seungri had ordered ten 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1xXkYYDab
large sized boxes of pizza, enough for everyone upstairs. And the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvI2mfftUX
flavour, mac and cheese. Sam's favourite. Well, almost everyone's 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVj79fhfFdj
favourite.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDq1xXaLPUE
We helped Seungri with the pizza and went to the elevator which took us back up to the floor of the dance studio.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeS3bdfqfpS
"When all of this is over, Zoey, you're going to get a scolding from me," said Christine, as we walked down the hall.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qigQu4peA
"I'll be ready for 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0ffojNpLH
that," I said as I rolled my eyes. "I just can't wait to have everything1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3NryzpUFq
back to the way they were. Before all the threatening."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlxDWsVEUO
"No, they won't," said Seungri. "You still have Sam to resolve things with."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gixPdyD5f
"And G-Dragon," TOP added.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yL0Ah4VkM
"Can we please not talk about that?" I asked. "You don't have to remind me all the time."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegqCMDEqGa
"Well, someone has to," said Christine.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCbOV9KWfU
"Just so you know, I'll agree to resolve things on my own terms."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bZm6LHdlN
"Jeez," said Christine, rolling her eyes at me. "When you say that, I have to get ready for the unexpected."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5L0DoScb5
We found ourselves back 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAJThNuytj
at the studio and this time, I found Sam talking to Taeyang. G-Dragon 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2pTEKBnLE
was still talking to some of the back up dancers and I could see him 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJp9knTNFM
staring at Sam through the corner of his eye. Or was that me being 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVS1tk6Cpd
paranoid?1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LIKSXZK35
Christine snapped her fingers right in front of me and I turned to look at her.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbLI9Nzr2z
"What?" I asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlinZCe94RG
"You were frowning," Christine answered.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkt9QGUNgI
"Frowning? I wasn't frowning."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡme7H7qm58Q
"Says the person who 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2rCvguzdH
couldn't stand seeing G-Dragon looking at someone else." Christine gave 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDrFuBWgCI
me a smirk and left me standing all alone by the door, while she joined 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDi5jHSaZ5
the others who had soon formed a circle around Seungri and TOP.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6pS233bSg
Soon after lunch, we 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeM3ORAvROS
went straight back to practising. This time, for a good six hours. We 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGQJMZdzFQ
had to do the dance routine over and over again to perfect it. This time1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡou4lEqMU7n
around, I made sure not to make any mistake like I had been doing 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsFJFZolXn
earlier. This time, everything was coming out perfectly and I don't know1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4cGfiJzHA
how many times we had to do the routine all over again. But despite the1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RXN41VE6U
number of times we did it again, we had a whole lot of fun.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlTt3z7hj3
At some point in the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSkmLa4jyG
afternoon, our two managers and Lee came over to check on us and they 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMi9uUZcvkx
were really impressed. Yang Hyun-suk thought filming the dance practise 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2nufFGXqa
will be helpful and that they would release it after the music video. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KPbTCKyze
The dance practise was shot and it came out perfect, but still, we went 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2W2SJB4Q8
back to practising until we could pratice no more.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFW2gUJqCg
It was five and the sun 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3a3VovKLhD
was setting when we were finally done for the day. I was so tired that I1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQqnSqLqkS
was lying on the floor. My body aching everywhere. Luckily, I wasn't 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzE8i1CTMh
the only one on the floor. Christine and Daniel were lying on either 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEghKPvgKh
side of me. We were all pretty tired.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPqHKigNhO
The choreographer had already left and the backup dancers also started to leave. G-Dragon and Taeyang left together.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXG5WSTRGL
While I was resting and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKnF6vPk3s
gathering up any ounce of energy I had left, Seungri was standing next 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAakUPFrR7P
to my head and looking down on me. I looked up at him with a puzzled 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfgrCCH4km
look on my face.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeZzscRcAd
"Get up, Zoey, we gotta go," he said.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvo2vQstEW
"Go? Go where?" I asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpZIkgMG5n
Christine roughly nudged me on my side with her elbow, I looked at her with a whining look on my face.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIQhzEU0eQ
"Ouch, that hurt!" I said.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3njBmv2X1
"Are you forgetting, Zoey?" Christine asked, raising her eyebrows. "We have to go somewhere to do something."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhU6Xexan2
It was then that I remembered that I was supposed to meet Jehan at the café. I totally forgot.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UHcojhdbU
"Oh, ya!" I quickly sat up on the floor and Christine followed. "We have to go."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCfA99As4A
"Go where?" Daniel asked, still lying down on the floor and looking at us.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMCeXqPIK4
"No where," I answered quickly. "We're just planning on going around the city for a drive."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Vg8QShR53
"I want to follow too," said Daniel.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnyzhLvN7t
"Where did you say you were going?" came Mike who had been talking with Sam and Daesung.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sgCYCoYdR
I rolled my eyes. Seriously? The last thing I want is for everyone to follow and find out what's going on.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMezu8BUJx
"It's nothing really," said TOP. "We were planning to drive around the city. You don't have to follow."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweW2Ndd6ed
"But this is not fair," said Daniel, sitting up quickly. "I also want to come along."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTfUIdcHL6
"Ya, me too," said Mike.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6nZjezny5
"Why don't you want 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5K3raFuI9
these guys to go along?" Sam asked. I noticed that she still wasn't 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJ63wro1sh
looking at me. "You're just going for a drive. I see no reason for them 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qvye70u6k
not to follow."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYzTRo5bDD
I wanted to protest and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3yNKjfMn7
refuse but then I realised that I wasn't supposed to talk to Sam. And 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWSlB945h9
refusing her was going to be pointless because I already know Seungri 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83uA7mIuHN
and TOP weren't going to deny her so easily.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOFsWJKhtn
"Okay, they can come along," said Seungri.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zqV7Smams
Dang it!1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fW5LwHc09
"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.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTCsTPxWxx
"I can take you back to the hotel if you want," said Daesung, addressing Sam.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0HFqN0IHg
"Thanks, that's nice of 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtB1uErXNDX
you, Daesung," said Sam giving him a sweet smile. She turned to look at 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqZEfs9eNg
the others. "Have fun you, guys."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1I0NQ7xRh
Sam and Daesung left the1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGKJ9QPWlq
room together and I couldn't help but look at the door and think to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXojFbfMGuw
myself that the two also made a nice pair.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdsicD2WiK
"So, where are we going?" Mike asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehmGlz9qk1
"Please, don't ask any questions," I said as I turned to face him. "It's none of your business."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrEISXMUD9
"Mmm, seeing the look on your face, something's up," said Daniel.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHkK68wfO1
Christine stood up from 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSFCb2J6jA
the floor and said, "look guys, if we tell, you have to promise not to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqp03wCfBTO
tell anyone. Not even Sam. No one."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGIvTaFW1B
I looked up at her with my eyebrow raised. "Are you seriously going to tell them?" I asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4cuhEAd3l
"Do I have a choice? You know how persistent these two are and they are probably going to find out anyway."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0ucnsOAo4
"Ya, Christine's right," said Seungri. "And we also couldn't refuse Sam for them to come along."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyoa8cG5IW
"You just couldn't refuse because you like her too much," I said, turning to face Seungri.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbU3h9hPJ1R
Seungri shrugged and smiled. "What can I say? I've to obey the lovely queen, right?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQka90TNely
I almost snapped back at him but I controlled myself and looked away.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhz1GWhI55k
"Okay, can we focus on telling us what's going on?" Daniel asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35Xzq0PN2k
"Fine," I said. "Someone tell them. I can't keep repeating myself with all this."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazFD5T3QiW
TOP told Mike and Daniel what was going on. The two brothers were shocked after what they heard.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntEbdFk7R3
"Oooh, you're in a lot of trouble now, Zoey," said Mike, looking at me and shaking his head.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKT3HYR7Vq
"You don't have to remind me," I said rolling my eyes.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi93IcDzPBN
"I can't believe that guy is the diamond smuggler," said Daniel.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6RCdrnpYf
"I know," said Christine.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThajCQSKXx
"You haven't told Sam about this?" Mike asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhefMZOHNh
"No. No one has to know," I said. "Not even the police."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rnPfPCcFi
"I think you should have told Sam," said Daniel.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf104YyQOLP
"So that she can judge me? No way."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7qdAnAu8l
"You know Sam can never do that," said Seungri. "She would have helped in any way possible."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTn5gsXO1Hf
"Don't try to convince 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPIZAnHWHc
her of anything," said Christine. "She probably won't listen like she 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQHzVK6lvb
always does." I raised an eyebrow at Christine and she looked back at me1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3veoRs5Rg
like she could hit me with a hammer.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43uxuMNevA
"Okay, let's go," said TOP.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFe9tsksEbw
I got up from the floor 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jhfqZ3RVr
with Daniel and I took my purse. We soon left the room and headed 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMXy0LmdNC
downstairs. Sam and Daesung had already left since there was no sign of 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ917EBz31Sx
Daesung's car in the parking lot. Christine and I went with Seungri in 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhTfd49vbZ
his car while Daniel and Mike went in TOP's car.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpmzcTIwfj
The cars soon left the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXXqyUeVJD
YG premises and in the car, I couldn't help but feel nervous. What if 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkogSsWVyOq
things didn't work out like it did yesterday? I hope not. Every now and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppHbX6PgNk
then, I would open and check if the teddy bear was still in my purse.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tylXEn0jJ
"Can you you please stop1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TCbwzQPRp
doing that?" Christine asked from the back seat. "You might just drop 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAgD2vpV1I
the teddy and lose it in the car."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23R83GhV6R
"Stop joking around," I said as I turned to look at Christine.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdIwSaBM66
"Well, then stop getting nervous. We're all here with you so there is nothing to be worried about."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9dyiD3BzL
I leaned back on the chair and tried to relax. "You're right," I said. "I need to relax."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkVcGNMFNW
"Don't worry, we're almost there," said Seungri as the car took a turn.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGV3rcnMAvF
"I just want to get this over with."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQGDhYTlF2
We were soon packed 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWc1pVmXvCm
right outside the café and TOP's car parked right next to us. I took a 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiXgjEih3U
deep breath. Christine came over and put her hand on my shoulder. I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6JfL3Kbkd
turned to look at her.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSerIk1I8F
"Everything is going to be okay," said Christine giving me an encouraging smile. "If anything happens, we'll be here."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMUXWZKbUD
"Thanks," I said with a smile. "I'm glad you guys are all here."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3Pz2tax9k
Seungri also turned to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uhoNrPQTd
smile at me. I don't know what I would have done without them. Their 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWxMj1V74s
presence here gave me a little comfort. But I felt a small hole in my 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEvzu8LLWm
chest and I wished Sam was here too.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDVBfQdxzb
I soon got out of the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrd9z6Ro4a
car and there was a sudden chill in the air. Maybe it's because the sun 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlXdjZpy0M
was setting that it started to get cold. I had my purse in my hand and I1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50JET7cY4F
looked towards the café. I hope everything will go as planned.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Y7UZ2h0zp
Before I could find my 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyqkr3ATOL
way into the café, TOP, Mike and Daniel waved at me through the windows 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1cN7zxuTo
of TOP's car and giving me a thumbs up. I smiled a little and waved 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVD2pv2EG6
back. At least that gave me the confidence to go ahead.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQhcnsf50a
I quickly went in the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTBKbLjrM6
café and when I slowly stepped in, I looked around for Jehan. I spotted 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yK3sfcsPl
him right next to the huge glass window where we had last sat down 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KGnz55Gu2
together. He was alone in his smart pressed black suit, as always.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYupkbZSvL
I slowly approached the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwSYJLcghc
table. His eyes never left me since I walked in the café. When I got to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZB2u1oQQUc
the table, I sat facing him. My heart was beating so fast. I don't know 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNQhOl9CMa
why I was so scared that things might go wrong and Jehan wouldn't 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRowtxknfC
hesitate to end my life right here.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18WNozfKUm
"I'm glad you could make it," said Jehan. "I was almost about to call my driver to come pick you up."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEK3YNKGAs
"I was practising today," I answered.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBswgBamK0
"You look really tired. It could show all over your face."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcMvlNPemo
"Thanks," I frowned at 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ynQ6i450f
him. "Can we get this over with? I still have a busy day tomorrow and I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVXlv4JLCJ
would like to get this teddy bear off my back."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJdAENGZmm
Jehan smirked. "Certainly."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4j7r3IvPA
I quickly reached out 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IyIrL0OuL
for the purse on my lap, opened it and gave him the teddy bear. Jehan 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBqmIfavvG
reached out to take it and I couldn't help but feel relieved.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqnhnAjZNR
"There! You have your teddy," I said. "Can I go now?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcD5xmgXV76
"Wait." Jehan held up a finger when I was just about to stand up and leave. I sighed.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcGeqyGPQy
"What now?" I complained.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1eHOQnJ7J
"I need to check if all the diamonds are in here," said Jehan, shaking the teddy in his other hand.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoj4ivxV8G
"What do you think? That1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLraWCFqv86
I would steal from you?" I was really surprised that he didn't trust 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bEbr12gdR
me. "You pointed a gun to my head in Paris and I have done everything 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGmMP1gmCc
you have asked until now. What makes you think I would steal your 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0qzbfnCIR
diamonds? I have a life to live, may I remind you."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxMpcofCDr
Jehan raised an eyebrow 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXt32ujKym
at me. "Nice one, Zoey. You almost had me convinced. But I'm still going1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19nROiqaXl
to check. I've to make sure all the diamonds are in here before I make a1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuviO2VyMbn
fool of myself in front of my clients I'm selling these to."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgtuoLaMIz
"Fine." I folded my arms on the table. "If you don't believe me, then check it yourself. I know I'm innocent."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDdW25MKLa
"I know you're." Jehan gave me a smile and I looked away facing the window. It was getting really dark outside so fast.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuSKkefq8G
I went back to looking 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxxN8KvBr7
at Jehan who had laid the little teddy bear on the table and he dug into1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLFhhxVnFT
the pockets of his suit and removed a small pocket knife. It didn't 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkaJcHeyfIg
surprise me that he carried that thing around.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8QzCmEjcb
Jehan slowly laid the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEJxX1gkTW
blade onto the little teddy's belly and cut through its tiny suit, 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaouJIJe6S
dissecting the teddy bear. This reminded me of science class back in 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jIdDBe7UY
high school when we were told to dissect a frog. Doing that was so 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjCqAvw7Un
disgusting that I ended up purking all over Sam's shoes, who was my 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgkfk6XkVk
science partner. This time, it was just cotton stuffing that came out of1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhazGZrDkU
the teddy bear.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbscl31t7K
Wait. I frowned. This 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBV3Cg4guO
isn't right. I raised an eyebrow when Jehan kept on removing cotton 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDTVdEvL98
stuffings and there was no sign of the diamonds. Where were the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6FpMHvifE
diamonds!1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kSw37zmw6
I stared horrified at 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoKWsp34md
the scene on the table. There was tiny cotton stuffings everywhere and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFiSUPktER
the bear that laid stuffless on the table was a sad site to see because 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6wk4Yw0Se
there was nothing in it. No diamonds.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZAledrawb
I looked up at Jehan and1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcjT7trZC6
he was as surprised as I was. His mouth was wide open and he couldn't 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhknfC8cxJ
stop looking at the dissected teddy. If he kept on looking at it like 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPlVKaqgo6
that, he was going to end up traumatised.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uQVXahQku
"Je-Jehan," I said 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0w4JVXkuYH
softly. Hoping he wouldn't bite at me like a dog with rabies. "Jehan. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMZGh9BdtX
I...I have no idea what has just happened, but, there are no diamonds in1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zQfW8Ecb7
there."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDdLBrCSif
Jean neither moved nor 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZiaIXfaQW
said a word. I was getting worried. Should I move him to try and snap 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIeZi4ZCWF
him out of it? I didn't know what to do.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiPVlJfhfC
But how could this be? 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgturb079f
Where did the diamonds go? It's not like the teddy bear could just poop 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaj60JI82VW
out diamonds since it wasn't alive or anything. Something weird was 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDi9yLJbpq
going on. And I wasn't like liking it at all.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0zCq7TxAG
"Where are my diamonds?" Jehan muttered silently, still looking at the scene before him.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDW8dVpx8Qs
"I...I don't know," I said shaking my head. I was scared of his reaction and I prepared myself for it.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NkEZI5evD
He banged his fists on 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZotKfQWcV
the table so loudly that he startled not only me, but everyone else in 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86Zq0g0KLb
the café. Everyone turned to look at us and I looked around then back at1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPGrfVQgVK
Jehan, whose eyes were as red as a bull's, staring at me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThhPFCvtJA
"Jehan, chill," I said, putting my hands up to calm him down. "Let's not try to get angry here."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8xCuw8stE
"Where are my diamonds, Zoey?" This time he didn't shout but the anger in his voice got me shivering.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2miBBIIRZ
"I don't know. I don't 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC69VbZNuAl
know what's going on right now. This is the same teddy bear you sent us.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SEnYa0B4b
I don't know why it doesn't have diamonds in it."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ886w70A9dB
"How did the diamonds go missing?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9RpSuGUfi
"How am I supposed to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnux7UabG9
know? I just kept the teddy for you. Maybe you sent me the teddy without1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOY6V5iqnXn
diamonds in it and you probably never noticed."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDrj8LiGYn
"Don't doubt what I do, Zoey! I made sure I made no mistake."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmsjiidVEj
"Okay, chill, I believe you. Look, why don't we try to sort this out calmly? Getting upset won't do us any good."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSwDpjBb1j
Jehan rubbed his 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6iXY3bf4k
forehead and sighed as he leaned back further into his seat. He seemed 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3em9tTFAl5
to have calmed down when he looked at the teddy bear again.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7F331ds3x
"I need my diamonds back, Zoey."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYtFrTdzB9
"I know. You've said that like almost a hundred times now."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpkihmquZX
"Let's not joke around here. What happened? Why does this bear have no diamonds in it?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYW6oxOXIf
"I didn't do anything. I swear. That teddy was just the way it was eversince you sent it."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4B7ClX8xRJ
"Then why doesn't it have diamonds in it?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uizsutHYH
"I don't know."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmr8ZC1144
Jehan looked at me with an eyebrow raised. "Who else had this teddy apart from you?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUojhexH2UA
"Ummm," I looked down 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWXjwzTRon
and played around with my fingers. "Uh....I wasn't the one who had been 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5KlGNpP5g
taking care of the teddy bear this whole time."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEitrFs6RmF
"What?" Jehan sounded surprised. "What do you mean?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNBrAGUL2Z
"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.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡketXwnEIF9
"Who had the teddy bear?" Jehan leaned closer, his eyes not leaving mine.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITm75sqUkQ
"Lee had it before I took it from her yesterday."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQ8B4IxhT4
"Oh, my gosh!" Jehan 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3v0zLIfhee
covered his face with his hands and I could see this wasn't going too 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqsyeIVErP
well for him. "Could she have the diamonds?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fqaTuVPQP
"I don't think so. Lee 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ouHKjz4c9
is an honest person. If she did notice there were diamonds in the teddy,1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqv8JV3CfKl
she would've said something. No way. She can't have the diamonds."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBds4kzy2s
"Then how do we explain all this! She was the last person to have the teddy, correct?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7p25wTnoK
"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."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43n2D8ZtgW
"Maybe you don't know Lee well enough. If this is the same teddy I had sent, where could the diamonds be?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmB41wewqh
"Maybe this is just another teddy bear and the actual one with the diamonds is still at the hotel."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAoDSnttNU
After I said that, Jehan1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4rY3lOjLd
quickly took the dissected teddy bear in his hands and looked at it 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhBmwo36mq
carefully. He turned the teddy, looking at its back side and tearing the1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXuzQhjW1uz
suit away. I wondered what he was looking for because he had a serious 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvI5UByc00
look on his face.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTpsdr86fx
"You're right," said Jehan. "This is definitely another teddy bear and not the one I sent you."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEXQfO8EuH
"Wait, how do you know?" I asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3RVIja8nz
"I remember one of my 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWu5p943i5Y
men who sewed the teddy bear after putting diamonds in it at the back. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJn2yzVOZD
There should have been some stitching here but this one doesn't."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTuplKemQi
"Ha!" I snapped my fingers. "I knew I was right!"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO77rznPcXR
"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!"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASwPHPkjIc
"Huh? I can't start 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGUJRxEU3W
searching for it now. It would look suspicious. And I can't start asking1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUuYtrcF1U
Lee if she bought another teddy just like this one. She already knows 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmDx5AJxl0
that the bear is missing."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDKzIkumFD
"Then maybe, Lee isn't the only person you should be asking."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa50Peo4NDz
"What do you mean?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVjQqRLNws
"Someone else must know where the other teddy bear is. Your group members perhaps."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjXAKuqbuI
"No. I highly doubt it. Lee must have bought another teddy and we just didn't know about it."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSuZO5nDPh
"Now that, makes no 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTFshWCcTY
sense. If I were you, I would go back and find out what happened to that1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNVUftwex0
teddy and ask around for it. I'll need that teddy tomorrow."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6Hysgjgny
"Tomorrow! Are you nuts!"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3ms7pceVw
"Maybe I am because I'm desperate to have those diamonds back."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdKMaJTNcO
"I might not be around tomorrow. I have a music video to shoot."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxNPOcFRmX
"Find those diamonds and you will be scott free, Zoey. Or do you want everyone to mourn over you when they find you dead?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82itNDRDNn
I completely forgot that1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaqvvBaWI9
I was being threatened by this guy. Though his threats didn't scare me 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGvwD8kRuO
anymore, I just had to abide to everything. Who knows, he might not have1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bWI0l3LeO
me killed, but he could hurt the others and it would be all my fault.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58XMsjU29L
"Okay. I'll see what I can do."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FlHch1IEF
Jehan gave me a smile. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MrDHxvoCO
"That's more I like it. I would start working on this soon if I were 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4GiAbm0oH
you. Try your best to find the bear by tomorrow, will you?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9c2uoD5VTa
I nodded my head and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0WOGeENQh
that made him smile even more. He soon stood up from his seat and looked1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKApwwE6dL
down at me. I looked back at him without a saying a word.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZHhqxHdkH
"See you tomorrow," said Jehan and he quickly walked out of the café.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy78Osk2OxK
I sat there as I buried 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75af50qEOg
my face in my hands, thinking of what to do. Again, everything was 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlyTIDgTqb
ruined. First, the interruption from TOP and Seungri yesterday. Now, the1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUabtrCQ1Rq
teddy bear had been swapped with another. My life couldn't get any 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMFQ2vmznr
worse than this. What was going on? Who was putting me into so much 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rineCn2CM
drama that might just ruin my life?1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCX0YcOvxF0
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.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTI8gKYdiiv
"Zoey, what happened?" Christine asked, as she turned to look on what was on the table.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzN8dihZ09
I could hear footsteps 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpquH0Od60
behind me. The others had come in the café too. They all looked worried 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDzn2jk4l2
when they saw the look on my face.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaC9R7lVZHC
Christine sat where Jehan had been a few minutes ago and looked at the tattered teddy bear on the table.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwYXfkTlFz
"What's going on?" Daniel asked. "And what happened to Mr Teddy?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZteCXtByU
"Jehan didn't look happy when he left the café," said TOP. "Didn't he get his diamonds?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnffoWMuEe
"No," I answered. "He didn't."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfq3TqaGtv0
"What?" Seungri sounded surprised. "What do you mean he didn't get his diamonds?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxP7K8cHKi
"This teddy isn't the teddy he had sent us," I answered. "Someone swapped the teddy with another."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJgDWNnzw4
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."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6vYANKjHa
"And what about Lee?" 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJtk2csGMd
Christine asked. "She was the one who last had the teddy before Zoey 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eqlKgQfc4
took it. But what doesn't make any sense is why she would want to get 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3BRHdy8bz
another teddy when she had asked me last night where Mr Teddy had gone 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmv0CZAE6u
to."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvR9pYTO5w
"This is bad," I said, 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡji6jGCstKT
leaning my elbows on the table and holding my head. "Whoever has the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIvv8D7q6i
teddy, knew what must have been going on this whole time."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0C0raopDv
"Ya, but who could have known?" Seungri asked. "It couldn't be Lee because all she knows is that the teddy has gone missing."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BA3RRTu2N
"Maybe Sam has it," said Mike.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCO1DUngSSZ
We all turned to look at Mike with grim looks on our faces.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqmVu3S6jN
"Sam?" I wondered for a 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxd77jzlvKg
little while. "Why would Sam have the teddy? And if she did, how could 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYfmEoZQLP
she have swapped it with the other one?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctKAIRuFT4
"Okay, wait," said TOP. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTiF8eLCqT
"This is all too confusing. Does Sam even have any idea or clue as to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYsDYMcM3Q
what's really going on in the first place?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkKKynS2HU
"I doubt it," I said 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlKnsz1Pzg
shaking my head. "If she knew what was going on she would have 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbZe0LDy4V
confronted me. And besides, she was also at the mall yesterday and would1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdbPfd9v5z
have probably seen Jehan and I together. But she didn't."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnTPrSg6NC
TOP and Seungri looked 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xwctmXr9l
at each other after I said that. What was up with them? The look they 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQAqeTdMbx
gave each other made me feel that something was up but I quickly brushed1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cqH2xjWCc
it away.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5GgxNu4Gl
"I highly doubt it too,"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeCtv3HeBP
said Daniel. "If she knew Zoey was into some kind of serious trouble, 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTusYsukzz
she would have asked us about it."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhrIBPZwCP
"That's true," said 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8RJ7efrgN
Mike. "Come to think of it, I don't think Sam has it. For her to swap 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlj7Tk6ueDt
the teddy, she would have bought it from somewhere."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgHoYNFu0y
"And I checked out the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hCvOVZ5ou
shopping bags, Lee came with yesterday when she went shopping with Sam. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIZozSzu1T
There was no sign of a small teddy in any of them," said Christine.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJL8QsnSs2Z
"She must have bought it when she was with G-Dragon," I said.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXD6d30NIFc
"No, I highly doubt it,"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnYfTVuIgg
said TOP. "There are some dedicated fans who followed those two 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6MWi1N2Xv
yesterday, describing which store they went to and taking pictures. They1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbuAM72DKn
said nothing about them entering a toy store."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuRg97w7pO
"Now that's what I call a dead end," said Daniel.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13ztMPebaD
"Fine, so Lee and Sam have been cancelled on the list," said Seungri. "Who else could have swapped the teddies?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4j8WJsyWQ
"Collins?" Mike asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimZkwmrvQ1
"Ha! No way," I said, almost laughing in a such a serious situation. "How could he have known about Jehan and the diamonds?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGn0nc0reoz
"Mmmm, good point," said Seungri. "He's been really busy these past few days."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoSjKllZOn
"But who knows? Maybe he1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCRutnmZYv
has been spying on me this whole time and I haven't noticed. He 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfurHX0GxDJ
considers me the black sheep that has to be kept an eye on at all 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4yUVdCD58
times."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRr6vkpQxEG
"You're definitely the black sheep, Zoey," said Mike.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6IHOolT0g
"Hey! May I remind you, I'm not the only one here who gets into trouble here."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡus6DVh5bq7
"Okay, guys, focus," said TOP. "What makes you think Collins might have been the one who swapped the teddies?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrjz98WPYO
Daniel suddenly snapped his fingers. "I remember now. Yesterday when he came back with Sam, something happened."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQqzEt4RRI
"Wait. Collins was with Sam?" I asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGN2tsJogrj
"He was the one who went1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CBWWsG5tZ
to pick her up from the mall," Daniel answered. "Back to what I was 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEZh5Ypfo6
saying, Collins had something delivered to him at the hotel. He even 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2knGKl8uq
went to get it himself from the delivery man who was coming up the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ndSwIyRP7
elevator."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3bFRRkkkf
"What was it?" We all asked Daniel, looking at him anxiously.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsNxl2HPMG
"It was a small box. And if you ask me, it was kind of like the one Jehan had sent that teddy bear in."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2QZKMjItM
"Gosh, it's been Collins this whole time," said Christine.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Q9mYvzUbA
"I couldn't be too sure," I said. "But after what Daniel has said, I don't know what to believe."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0DeHJFP5x
"We really have to go," said Seungri. "We can't stay here."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFizsWyZ9A
"You're right," I said 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljnrWG5BB7
as I stood up from the seat taking my purse. "I've to search for that 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlasIUSbsln
teddy if I want to make it out alive tomorrow."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hekFcyOsp
"Wait, we can't leave all this here," said Christine, taking what was left of the teddy bear in her hands.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYu0qYgx8qv
We all walked out of the1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0RjerngKh
café, hopping no one had heard our conversation. There were a few 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaAzugiPPi
people in the café and I highly doubt if they really heard anything.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡow7GyNCOZV
While I was in the car 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MgxnaNuXN
with Seungri driving and the others in the other car behind us, I was so1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVRZ3lvI9O
troubled about the missing teddy. I couldn't help thinking that Collins1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbwEkQin2v
is involved. But that didn't make any sense. As much as I wanted to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjflqdf3tuu
believe that Collins could have swapped the teddies, I shook my head at 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTmNfSK8sx
the thought of it. Maybe it really wasn't Collins.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuci3s2eOdx
If it isn't him, then 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqqHPX6Zlw
who? It couldn't be Lee because she had the teddy with her the whole 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmSPQFQjOU
time and she couldn't buy another teddy for no reason. And I couldn't 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfyjluOjZ4
picture Sam doing anything like that either because I had never seen her1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXgKQY5mFy
near that teddy after Jehan sent it to us that day.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeNk1qYsuc
What if I had the wrong 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0gAFencuQ
teddy the whole time and I had never known till now? All this was too 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOtoQ9Tem9
confusing. Who swapped the teddies? And when did the swapping ever take 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKz6lMdm1FX
place without any of us noticing in the first place?1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE51ZsY9Zhk
I hope I could be able 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgj7gbDDOCU
to find the teddy soon. Jehan might threaten to kill me, but I was 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWFBElPacT
pretty sure he would try to hurt the others too. And I wouldn't let that1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUdIZSTrbl
happen.
