Meeting WINNER the 756Please respect copyright.PENANAqXR40txHBF
previous day was one of the most memorable days of my life. We had so 756Please respect copyright.PENANAC2MKW9JlwT
fun when they came, though they were just with us for a short while 756Please respect copyright.PENANAaifdBPyDHj
because we had to be pretty cautious with when Collins and Lee were 756Please respect copyright.PENANAj8wTxUzwVI
going to come back to the hotel. They weren't supposed to know that 756Please respect copyright.PENANAD7PDRB5Ihe
WINNER had come to the hotel to visit. Most especially, Collins.756Please respect copyright.PENANASKWbJEPDzC
With the little time we 756Please respect copyright.PENANAh0TCODWrwx
had with WINNER, I couldn't help but feel like a fan girl all over again756Please respect copyright.PENANANrsLz5c2g2
as we all got to know each other.756Please respect copyright.PENANAWa1dkXttf5
Seungyoon, the leader 756Please respect copyright.PENANAvAQnffWBHi
and maknae of the group is so cute. For me I really like him or maybe 756Please respect copyright.PENANAHn1dSxqVKY
thats just the fan girl in me saying all that. I just felt he was such a756Please respect copyright.PENANAVxUk3IfgdZ
fun and nice person to be around with.756Please respect copyright.PENANAkbGO8YTL4w
Then there is Mino, who 756Please respect copyright.PENANAzlbu1WQ8Yl
almost looks identical to G-Dragon, you could easily mistake the two for756Please respect copyright.PENANAa3ts3k6tyI
father and son. I mocked G-Dragon about it with the others. And Zoey 756Please respect copyright.PENANAVuXQXCmUyJ
kind of grew attached to Mino. Which to me, wasn't much of a surprise.756Please respect copyright.PENANA8AdoTteuUC
As for Jinwoo and 756Please respect copyright.PENANAuDsUPumo4D
Christine, they seem to be hitting it off pretty well like good friends.756Please respect copyright.PENANAUfRp5Vtnz9
I for one thought they made a really cute couple. Though I had to keep 756Please respect copyright.PENANAAFJeisWTJf
in mind Collins' golden rule about not dating anyone while we were here 756Please respect copyright.PENANAaLDsqt27ap
in Korea.756Please respect copyright.PENANACG0xOZ9aAT
As for Seunghoon, I 756Please respect copyright.PENANAjCMSQCFdZM
wasn't going to let go of him that easily. He and I had a lot of talking756Please respect copyright.PENANAlvUhLPTTDO
to do concerning how he got in the closet in the first place. I guess 756Please respect copyright.PENANAsSqgvBJNmh
he was the one who had secretly been stalking me the whole time.756Please respect copyright.PENANA1iWCfNfTg4
Before they left, we 756Please respect copyright.PENANAoXlpvlxbeJ
agreed to meet tomorrow at YG, though the three BigBang members didn't 756Please respect copyright.PENANAXO9anVVQqC
think it was a good idea because of their manager. Even if the two 756Please respect copyright.PENANAQLTYsRjGlG
groups were to meet, how were we, The Toxins, going to agree with 756Please respect copyright.PENANAOEYlLZAWKt
Collins to let us go to YG? As far as everyone's concerned, we were done756Please respect copyright.PENANAjShURjRTtU
with our collabo with BigBang. What else were we going to do at that 756Please respect copyright.PENANA4kTeANDbs1
place?756Please respect copyright.PENANAiGefxQ4jeJ
I already had that part 756Please respect copyright.PENANA9gpyF4nomr
all sorted out. G-Dragon declared that whatever I had planned wasn't 756Please respect copyright.PENANAxY4JpkVYr0
going to work this time around. The other Toxins and WINNER had faith 756Please respect copyright.PENANAbfXytbGHfr
that it will. And I was pretty sure it would work because I knew I 756Please respect copyright.PENANA7rJiCuU1J5
wouldn't have to break a sweat.756Please respect copyright.PENANAQ97b38gWC2
Right now, this very 756Please respect copyright.PENANAGNUhBI4Q3v
morning, I'm in my purple pyjamas with a matching sleeping robe and 756Please respect copyright.PENANAbikxZA2Ssc
fluffy bed slippers, stretching and yawning as I stepped out of my room 756Please respect copyright.PENANAbhBidcjuZX
into the hall. I made my way to the lounge where I found Collins and Lee756Please respect copyright.PENANAf4wQl2IMba
by the dining table, working. The two had been so busy yesterday and 756Please respect copyright.PENANA3AYQOHvTb5
still even today. I didn't get a chance to talk to Lee about WINNER 756Please respect copyright.PENANARG4Vqy5OXS
because she came back so tired last night and went early to bed.756Please respect copyright.PENANA5p4veN9llt
"Morning," I said as I approached the dining table.756Please respect copyright.PENANAyP3hp417Wy
"Morning," Collins replied first, then Lee. "Aren't you supposed to be asleep?" he asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAYV9hCc0vdB
"I'm tired of sleeping,"756Please respect copyright.PENANAbCulRDXbKx
I said as I drew out a chair and sat on the opposite end of the table 756Please respect copyright.PENANAZJldeAcfXi
from where Collins sat. I needed to look at him straight in the eye as 756Please respect copyright.PENANAX0kfxFHZSQ
we talk. But as for now, he was looking down at some paper work.756Please respect copyright.PENANATiXJDKU7MW
"Well, you can always do something, right?" he suggested.756Please respect copyright.PENANAKuM86BU7vt
"Ya, I guess," I replied as I leaned back on my chair and rubbed my eyes. "I was thinking we get back to the old routine."756Please respect copyright.PENANAYFOFxQdUpj
"What old routine?" Collins asked. He was still not looking at me.756Please respect copyright.PENANAdoJSuoO5LW
"You know, going for 756Please respect copyright.PENANAaunheCpZtD
practise every morning. We're done with what we came to do here, so I 756Please respect copyright.PENANA4zOHl9ilLo
was thinking it's best we try and keep ourselves busy while we wait to 756Please respect copyright.PENANAoHKAesLKsq
go home. We can't always go shopping and sightseeing everyday. At least 756Please respect copyright.PENANA33m3QsVyZz
we try to do what we're familiar with."756Please respect copyright.PENANA3O3vHG517y
"Mmmm, I guess you're 756Please respect copyright.PENANAbBD74uVBKz
right," said Collins as he looked up at me. "I was wondering what you 756Please respect copyright.PENANAWTVxPRvgRd
guys will be doing the whole time now that shooting the music video is 756Please respect copyright.PENANA3iiBkEYail
done, and you came up with a pretty good idea."756Please respect copyright.PENANAIYeWtaQ1tk
"I did?" I tried not to act surprised through my sleepiness.756Please respect copyright.PENANAjmSuN4fvAU
"Yep," Collins nodded 756Please respect copyright.PENANAX6T5Tavq4o
his head. "I think doing your usual routine to start the day will be 756Please respect copyright.PENANAGBiNyvsRjs
perfect. Why don't you wake up the others and head to YG? I don't want 756Please respect copyright.PENANAw8JX5TLymi
all of you to become lazy bums at the end of the day and that won't be 756Please respect copyright.PENANAZKXgPUVVPe
good now, will it?"756Please respect copyright.PENANARJjx5W7ZvP
Wow. This was literally 756Please respect copyright.PENANAKKhHualFj8
not breaking a sweat. I didn't even have to look at him the entire time 756Please respect copyright.PENANAskwpJ3wvED
and he even agreed for us to start today. Perfect. Absolutely perfect.756Please respect copyright.PENANAhmlqpFR7W4
I tried not to act all happy about it as I yawned and slowly stood up from the chair.756Please respect copyright.PENANAWik4HwuCc4
"Okay, I'll go wake them up," I said.756Please respect copyright.PENANA2NahHbW036
I left the lounge at a 756Please respect copyright.PENANAqdP4XSDiB7
slow and steady pace. When I turned around the corner, I quickly and 756Please respect copyright.PENANA4xcZVYv4WF
quietly ran back to my room with so much excitement and through the door756Please respect copyright.PENANAuCm1b1ycng
I had left open. I ran in and jumped on Zoey's bed to wake her up.756Please respect copyright.PENANAdN1FSZaLns
Zoey sat up with a start756Please respect copyright.PENANAQQNePQ0ugT
immediately I landed on her bed. She sucked her teeth in irritation 756Please respect copyright.PENANANv4oBHisNV
when she noticed it was me and fell back into the bed covers.756Please respect copyright.PENANAPNsyFglZhY
"What's your problem, Sam?" she whined. "Can't you see it's too early in the morning?"756Please respect copyright.PENANALideSdnqH9
"Don't you want to go and see WINNER or what?" I asked as I looked down at her.756Please respect copyright.PENANA0b08C8n8Dm
At first she didn't say a756Please respect copyright.PENANA56H5FLcnyD
word until she scrambled to sit up, pushing the bed covers aside and 756Please respect copyright.PENANAdvOKo0D1Vv
looking at me with her eyes wide open.756Please respect copyright.PENANARdJJvV2CaU
"What did you say?" she asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAxuXRoQBvAF
"Get ready, we're going for practise," I said as I stood up from the bed.756Please respect copyright.PENANAgP4JCmJtmQ
"We're going to YG for practise? And meet WINNER there?" Zoey couldn't believe it. "Collins agreed?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4gycbPRtI
"Ya. So get your lazy butt out of bed and let's go. I'll go wake up the others."756Please respect copyright.PENANAywZgXFK7yb
"Sam, I love you," said Zoey with a smile. "You really had it all planned out, didn't you?"756Please respect copyright.PENANA3sABf94Pb3
"I did say I had a plan, right?" I shrugged my shoulders. "And Collins agreed without an argument."756Please respect copyright.PENANAbnyNejXbwO
"I can't wait for GD to see this. And he said your plan wouldn't work."756Please respect copyright.PENANACK6BOgzSG2
"Sometimes it's nice to prove people wrong." I smiled and headed out of the room.756Please respect copyright.PENANAhhSOOO7MxI
I went to wake up 756Please respect copyright.PENANAs60cqvDgpI
Christine who couldn't understand why we were going for practise until I756Please respect copyright.PENANAix3OBmSC4F
told her that we had to meet WINNER at YG.756Please respect copyright.PENANA2bFQcbXUzF
"Wow, seriously?" Christine asked as she rubbed her eyes and sat up in bed. "Collins agreed to go back to the old routine?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAHprOW6me7V
"I gave a reasonable 756Please respect copyright.PENANAYjip642HDD
explanation so, he agreed. Now, get your gym bag all packed up. You 756Please respect copyright.PENANASQOpiaPZUl
don't want to miss meeting Jinwoo now, do you?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAYirUeEq1Hc
I noticed Christine 756Please respect copyright.PENANAuBYWuO7umq
blush out of no where and I decided not to taunt her about it. I quickly756Please respect copyright.PENANAWGtMUBDLuK
walked out of the room to go and wake my brothers up. And as much as 756Please respect copyright.PENANAcdBMTumm5q
they were excited that we were back to doing the old routine, they were 756Please respect copyright.PENANAzqVbG8CgqW
happy that they would be meeting WINNER again.756Please respect copyright.PENANADIxsOZVJ0n
When we all had our bags756Please respect copyright.PENANAtf25wfcs5o
packed and we were all dressed ready to go for practise, we found 756Please respect copyright.PENANAbd2Z7bSTsf
ourselves in the lounge. Collins and Lee had stopped discussing and 756Please respect copyright.PENANAlpThzFzf4q
looked at us.756Please respect copyright.PENANAx5bIG0fpEQ
"Well, that was quick," said Collins.756Please respect copyright.PENANAwYNvFsX4ga
"We don't need to do so much when going for practise, do we?" Zoey asked. "You told us that."756Please respect copyright.PENANAfSYKxndCRb
"She's right," said Lee as she looked at Collins.756Please respect copyright.PENANAO9OKfuixIB
"I hate when you use my 756Please respect copyright.PENANASBGVEctRrr
words against me," said Collins. "Let's go before you start to say 756Please respect copyright.PENANA2GH8zLYYeW
something I'm not looking forward to hearing."756Please respect copyright.PENANAOEHZsokDtY
"You know I can't do that, Collins," said Zoey. "I care too much."756Please respect copyright.PENANAO4AL9NXXGG
Collins rolled his eyes 756Please respect copyright.PENANA8r99E7IcI9
and that almost made me laugh. "I'll keep that in mind," he said as he 756Please respect copyright.PENANAYeMSnCYfxM
stood up from his chair. "Let's go."756Please respect copyright.PENANAWXjG9pZe5i
"Isn't Lee coming with us?" Daniel asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAuoBq9DKBEv
"I would really love to,756Please respect copyright.PENANAzvIXB7rNwN
guys, but we've a lot of work to do," said Lee. "I'll make sure to pass756Please respect copyright.PENANAQFa4WCL7HV
by at lunchtime to check on you."756Please respect copyright.PENANAZzKljfgF2t
"You should, we have a lot to tell you," said Christine.756Please respect copyright.PENANAp8GqJyg7Ai
"And what would you possibly want to tell Lee that you wouldn't tell me?" Collins asked with his arms folded.756Please respect copyright.PENANAPbHYKcCfNu
"Nothing," said Christine.756Please respect copyright.PENANAc7P9JUb3iB
I noticed Mike give 756Please respect copyright.PENANAMjKbrXVZxd
Christine a little shove on the shoulder and he whispered to her to shut756Please respect copyright.PENANALMto3tTwpL
up. I quickly intervened before Collins could notice and ask what was 756Please respect copyright.PENANA7JSqMEMKtQ
going on.756Please respect copyright.PENANAn7WOxW2kcL
"It's just about the 756Please respect copyright.PENANApuksKozxcE
k-drama series we watched last night," I said. "Lee was so tired that 756Please respect copyright.PENANAswUYQY8wHh
she missed the episode that we were all planning on telling her what 756Please respect copyright.PENANAEjTNEW7jsQ
happened."756Please respect copyright.PENANAldQBXyYR4P
"You girls will tell her," said Mike. "I don't watch your k-dramas."756Please respect copyright.PENANApZJB4zkfzx
Collins sighed. "I don't watch k-dramas either but we all love something, right? Let's go."756Please respect copyright.PENANAdUNIaRgKIe
We all said bye to Lee and we headed to the elevator and found the SUV waiting for us as usual outside.756Please respect copyright.PENANApWlNZzFZfS
When we arrived at YG, 756Please respect copyright.PENANABJ4gooHADL
we disembarked out of the car at the entrance of the building. Collins 756Please respect copyright.PENANAkaRVFCDYsc
wasn't coming in with us because he said he had to rush back to work.756Please respect copyright.PENANAFJnyl1qMGX
"I already informed the 756Please respect copyright.PENANAARXONkgiC5
working staff that you guys will be around," said Collins as he talked 756Please respect copyright.PENANARNLk4IyraB
to us through the car window. "You guys behave yourselves, okay?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAuvoq47bC16
"Don't worry about a thing, Collins," I said. "I can handle it when things get out of hand."756Please respect copyright.PENANAMAFRBe3euW
"I know you will. See you later."756Please respect copyright.PENANAmI1yhFQqGH
"Bye, Collins," said Zoey and Christine at the same time as they waved at Collins who waved back.756Please respect copyright.PENANA2QndQiQBNk
Immediately the car drove out of the YG premises, we all turned around and found ourselves in the lobby.756Please respect copyright.PENANAr515zZERM6
"I can't believe this is happening," said Christine so excitedly as we walked towards the elevator.756Please respect copyright.PENANAqNdQhHwZke
"I know. Sam is a genius!" Zoey said as she wrapped her arm around my neck and brought me closer to her.756Please respect copyright.PENANAPJXp60hNmy
"Careful, Zoey," I said 756Please respect copyright.PENANAQjDnPZOBkG
as I waved at the receptionist at the desk, who happily waved back at 756Please respect copyright.PENANA0j6yYwH3uD
us. "And you're squeezing me to death."756Please respect copyright.PENANA24HVafM9CJ
"My sis has always been a genius," said Daniel.756Please respect copyright.PENANA9xwMpvYHjv
"Did you text them that we're already here?" Mike asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAzYOGr95YyG
"I did that when we were in the car," I said when Zoey had finally let go of my neck and we had reached the elevator.756Please respect copyright.PENANAOHYwNeHCDV
"Good, so we wait," said Zoey as she pressed the up button of the elevator.756Please respect copyright.PENANAfzJ5kRBIpI
"No," I said as the 756Please respect copyright.PENANA8XU6MMyr8B
doors flew open and we all went in. "We practise." The doors closed 756Please respect copyright.PENANAy0Adtp9Xad
before us and I pressed the button to the floor leading to the dance 756Please respect copyright.PENANAgotlaiLVYV
studios.756Please respect copyright.PENANAngTKlnHBCY
"Are you kidding me?" Zoey moaned as she leaned on the walls.756Please respect copyright.PENANAiL3kVGO9ta
"We did say we come here for exactly that, didn't we? It would look weird if we were just snooping around doing nothing."756Please respect copyright.PENANA4dwsJBMgqM
"And besides, I don't think we've gone for practise in the morning for a while now," said Mike. "I really missed dance."756Please respect copyright.PENANAghksyZvjZZ
"We just danced three days ago," said Zoey, with her eyebrow raised.756Please respect copyright.PENANAz3pmsiurwg
"That's different."756Please respect copyright.PENANAuAoG2vqZdj
"Ya, I still get what you mean. So, we practise and while we do that we wait for WINNER."756Please respect copyright.PENANAqC5nwUwbJq
"Exactly," I said as I smiled at Zoey. "Not so hard to do, isn't it?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAv2BrAOsqkx
"Don't mind, Zoey," said Christine. "We all know her too much already."756Please respect copyright.PENANAGTyVOYdEtS
"I'm not a lazy bum if that's what you mean," said Zoey.756Please respect copyright.PENANAaj6388vpjv
We soon got to the dance studios and when we occupied one of themy which was empty, we began to practise right away.756Please respect copyright.PENANA6pLRDj6DDO
It was so much fun 756Please respect copyright.PENANADebpLqpHOL
getting back to our old routine. I soon had that sense of relief after 756Please respect copyright.PENANAfVy6HHc93n
we practised even though I was tired after our first few rounds. I was 756Please respect copyright.PENANADbUMaU4B3w
born to dance and I realised that I had missed doing it.756Please respect copyright.PENANARTQ3zEVNtq
"What time are these guys coming?" Zoey asked as she was seated on the floor.756Please respect copyright.PENANArqv0OYcwNN
"It isn't even close to two hours, Zoey," I said with my hands on my hips.756Please respect copyright.PENANAo8m1KeOoBb
"I know, I'm just impatient and I'm already tired of practise."756Please respect copyright.PENANAAevc3iE34h
"I'm so glad I told Collins that we should do this again. You've become so lazy. Stand up. Let's go for another round."756Please respect copyright.PENANAD7USvtv1Z0
"Another round!" Zoey complained. "Can't we at least wait for the boys and Christine to come back?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAgjZ6veVpAY
Christine, Mike and Daniel had gone out to fetch water bottles for all of us downstairs a good five minutes ago.756Please respect copyright.PENANAEY0exLyZA9
"Come on, let's go one on one, just you and me," I challenged.756Please respect copyright.PENANA3aVHZKj0RO
"No way," said Zoey, still on the floor and shaking her head. "You know that you're a way better dancer than I am."756Please respect copyright.PENANAVEpXIetBbC
"Mike's like 'the' best in our group."756Please respect copyright.PENANAZC1KLWiLmn
"And you're second. There's not much of a difference."756Please respect copyright.PENANA3gDdBXqY1a
"Come on, Zoey," I 756Please respect copyright.PENANAEcfaWwQVeK
pleaded as I went over to the Beats by Dre pill, lying a few feet away 756Please respect copyright.PENANAKcFowQKlJ0
from us. "I promise I'll play that song you really like."756Please respect copyright.PENANAroWUBlD8rW
"What song?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAsM1pSgvYnv
I didn't answer when I 756Please respect copyright.PENANA7nZIL9tQFh
got my phone that was lying close to the pill and went through my music 756Please respect copyright.PENANAwc8I1aklzM
list. I tapped on the track, "The Greatest" by Sia and the music on the 756Please respect copyright.PENANAwlMvEj6h87
pill soon started to play.756Please respect copyright.PENANAfXJiomHYWk
I turned around and I found Zoey already up from the floor and looking at me. I smiled. I knew she would get up to this song.756Please respect copyright.PENANAtUEsBatvIA
"I hate you, Sam," she said as I approached her.756Please respect copyright.PENANAHCiJwwvD8p
"Just dance, Zoey," I said as we stood a few feet away from her, facing her.756Please respect copyright.PENANARRS7uM9Tdh
When the lyrics were sang out, Zoey started to dance and I watched her, then it was my turn to step in and dance too.756Please respect copyright.PENANAA5Gux1Ihlg
It's been a while since I756Please respect copyright.PENANAFKgGW6Bhqj
had a real dance battle with Zoey and I had to admit, I was enjoying 756Please respect copyright.PENANAb07b6nX7Yn
myself. Though we were dancing to one of Zoey's favourite songs and she 756Please respect copyright.PENANAGZVnKB17qu
was so good at dancing to it, I felt I was up to her level.756Please respect copyright.PENANAsdFos8sqCx
At the end of it, the 756Please respect copyright.PENANA0bnnDzKAOO
whole thing didn't finish like a dance battle. We danced together both 756Please respect copyright.PENANA0UOn8QxmvX
our moves synchronising with one another.756Please respect copyright.PENANACe774bPoit
When the song was done, the two of us were facing each other and panting like crazy.756Please respect copyright.PENANAB8daCv6gGc
"That was so cool," said Zoey. "Let's do that again."756Please respect copyright.PENANAK2AH2QLasd
"Wow! You two were awesome," came Mino's voice behind us.756Please respect copyright.PENANAGJvpYMwh2y
Zoey and I turned around and there stood, Mino and Seunghoon, both smiling at us.756Please respect copyright.PENANA6J1UoLrVp1
"Aaah! You're here!" Zoey exclaimed excitedly and ran over to them. I was too exhausted to run, so I walked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAS6tl85PtW8
"Morning guys, how are you doing?" Zoey greeted them. "I wish I could hug you but I'm all drenched in sweat."756Please respect copyright.PENANA2QXPbGat9l
"We're great," said Mino. "Can we watch you two dance battle again? It was awesome."756Please respect copyright.PENANAniKEPaElmr
"You watched the whole thing?" I asked as I finally got closer.756Please respect copyright.PENANAjUQrbTF95U
"Pretty much," said Seunghoon.756Please respect copyright.PENANAG96FFoio7x
"Okay, so who do you think is a better dancer?" Zoey asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAp8ZV4ucI2R
"Zoey," I gave her that look telling her that it wasn't necessary.756Please respect copyright.PENANAoE9XhkCYTG
"No, like, seriously," Zoey went on completely ignoring me. "Whose the best?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAy3SyIrcDhR
Mino and Seunghoon both 756Please respect copyright.PENANAFsoDcrElTh
looked at each other and I didn't want to know what was running through 756Please respect copyright.PENANAJl0U5voO2H
their minds. They smiled and went on to look at Zoey and I.756Please respect copyright.PENANAbZtTcwVqJx
"I think Sam is a better dancer," said Seunghoon.756Please respect copyright.PENANAYLuC97szqe
"Well, I think Zoey is," said Mino.756Please respect copyright.PENANASwORiCvWdx
Zoey smiled to herself. "And it's a tie. We need more votes."756Please respect copyright.PENANAOrtFqzqT8P
"Zoey can you just drop the whole thing? It's not really necessary," I said.756Please respect copyright.PENANApEHQrwLi11
"Where is Seungyoon and Jinwoo?" Zoey asked, ignoring me again. "Didn't you all come together?"756Please respect copyright.PENANA5qRKoIpa70
"We met the other Toxins downstairs and they decided to stick with them," Mino answered. 756Please respect copyright.PENANAMdCTSeMD7m
"We will wait for them and then Sam and I can dance again and see who is the best."756Please respect copyright.PENANALfhO7HklGA
I shook my head at Zoey and said nothing. She could be so persistent at times and right now, I couldn't do anything to stop her.756Please respect copyright.PENANAqnOsp2dNwL
"Seunghoon, you I need to talk," I said as I looked at him.756Please respect copyright.PENANAjQd4RqTXEk
"Ya, sure. What is it?" Seunghoon asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAR0Ce5jMHl3
I nudged my head to the 756Please respect copyright.PENANAiiafE0SAlu
side telling him to follow me. I went over to the wall and leaned my 756Please respect copyright.PENANA4euJxJBWc8
back on to it. I had the back heel of my right foot pressing against the756Please respect copyright.PENANA8xm1wfIn9g
wall as I was staring at Seunghoon as he came closer.756Please respect copyright.PENANAxvUEaTV7Rl
"I want to know everything," I said with my arms folded.756Please respect copyright.PENANAlr8GTa7l76
Seunghoon lips were 756Please respect copyright.PENANAWkRtuSNkTN
raised to a smile. And it was a corky one. That meant he knew what I was756Please respect copyright.PENANAGwBLiiyQtC
talking about. I wished he could stop doing that. He was making me lose756Please respect copyright.PENANAnYM2Uq3TVu
focus.756Please respect copyright.PENANAl92lON2v73
"You aren't letting this go, are you?" he asked with his eyebrow raised.756Please respect copyright.PENANAXPYJpNknCD
"The others might, but I756Please respect copyright.PENANABbwMx5RMI1
haven't," I said. "And I can also bet, the BigBang members aren't going756Please respect copyright.PENANACvCZiJotBf
to either. So, were you the one at the park hiding behind the trees 756Please respect copyright.PENANAQt8gpEF6Wa
when TOP came to pick me up?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAv9rp5zXKVk
Seunghoon took a step closer and answered, "yes."756Please respect copyright.PENANAmXnJvINrPI
"And the one who was standing behind the door when I was alone in the recording studio and I chased you down the hall?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAz5mFCYccbj
He again took a step closer. "Yes."756Please respect copyright.PENANAyqmYK4hxbt
Well, that made sense 756Please respect copyright.PENANAb5pQbdBAsa
since the time I was chasing him down the hall, I never caught him 756Please respect copyright.PENANApZWjoIXot9
because he had disappeared when I reached the lobby and no one had seen 756Please respect copyright.PENANAbPbNzlc6az
him. Only a person who knew YG could know where to go without being 756Please respect copyright.PENANAsHwa6We6nB
seen.756Please respect copyright.PENANAs1xodJBgGo
I hadn't realised it 756Please respect copyright.PENANAbL5oNKcVhG
till now that I was looking up at him. He was so tall and he was looking756Please respect copyright.PENANAjAYxbnWlPK
down at me, his eyes never leaving mine. I gulped at how close he was 756Please respect copyright.PENANAVILFirimyl
that I could feel his body warmth. And that made me pretty 756Please respect copyright.PENANA82wILIcioH
uncomfortable.756Please respect copyright.PENANAWjCfzvWK88
"So, its been you the whole time?" I asked as I looked away, trying to ignore him and how close he was.756Please respect copyright.PENANAC05Z1JLGVt
"Well, yes," he 756Please respect copyright.PENANA8r9MXTviDu
answered. "The others knew about it and they didn't like the idea of me 756Please respect copyright.PENANAsky7Y0yAgF
stalking you. But I couldn't because I'm such a big fan of The Toxins."756Please respect copyright.PENANAvBFZkSjehT
"If you're such a fan why didn't you stalk the others as well?" I asked as I looked at him. "I'm not the only Toxin."756Please respect copyright.PENANA69D0zCD7jR
"Apparently you happen to be my bias," said Seunghoon as he leaned closer and whispered in my ear.756Please respect copyright.PENANAtK3jSXvENp
I blushed and I was a 756Please respect copyright.PENANAXGl7tNoX3D
little surprised that he used the word "bias." In Korea, most people 756Please respect copyright.PENANA5rw779FDi8
refer to that word when it was comes to the person who tends to be a 756Please respect copyright.PENANAr6AdQ73MkF
personal favourite or most liked especially in relation to k-pop 756Please respect copyright.PENANAmqqwEyyijG
celebrities.756Please respect copyright.PENANAN4YVfznvyD
Seunghoon playfully tapped the tip of my nose and he laughed. "You look so cute when you blush. Has anyone ever told you that?"756Please respect copyright.PENANA6b2JxDtatc
"Well, yes," I said as I shrugged my shoulders.756Please respect copyright.PENANAQSrjLXnGAQ
"I bet most of the BigBang members say that about you."756Please respect copyright.PENANAAEAC5d0zm8
"No, they don't," I lied756Please respect copyright.PENANAGXDq1D7lwH
and Seunghoon laughed. He could clearly see through me because I was 756Please respect copyright.PENANAuTZMDKSoPR
blushing too much. I shoved him aside and walked away. Luckily, the 756Please respect copyright.PENANAI9RjLsP9hb
others had arrived.756Please respect copyright.PENANAIUSONYicZ7
"Good, the two groups are complete," said Zoey as she clapped her hands together.756Please respect copyright.PENANACx7HOO25PI
"A 'hi' would be nice, don't you think?" Jinwoo suggested as he walked alongside Christine.756Please respect copyright.PENANA1B3XohICqT
"That's Zoey," I said. "How are you two doing today?" I asked Seungyoon and Jinwoo.756Please respect copyright.PENANA9rL3FWCmSr
"We're great," Seungyoon answered. "And you?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAkizcmNDYa7
"Awesome," I replied.756Please respect copyright.PENANASYALVIYui7
"Okay, Sam get over here," said Zoey as she took hold of my hand and dragged me with her.756Please respect copyright.PENANAhnzMS9ZTG4
"What the....Zoey!" I tried to pull my arm away from her grip but I was still being dragged along either way.756Please respect copyright.PENANAaTW1O0UAgz
"What's going on?" Mike asked. I bet he had a confused look on his face.756Please respect copyright.PENANAUw7JXK6Gvt
Zoey stopped when she and I stood a few feet from the others. She turned to look at them.756Please respect copyright.PENANALvafyxVGYY
"Sam and I are going to have a dance battle," she said.756Please respect copyright.PENANAW9g6cFK2nJ
"Huh?" Christine looked confused.756Please respect copyright.PENANAQrZHQkEOG6
"Is that really necessary?" Daniel asked. "You should be having a dance battle with Mike not Sam."756Please respect copyright.PENANAzDkjSyBasj
"And besides, you and I 756Please respect copyright.PENANAuarNlXvb83
have countless dance battles back home," I said after I pulled my hand 756Please respect copyright.PENANAcErnu0vUoA
away from her grip. "If you ask me, we were just having fun until Mino 756Please respect copyright.PENANAbrlfGurlVo
and Seunghoon showed up."756Please respect copyright.PENANAmBuwzDaLMJ
"Zoey, Sam is a better dancer than you. Period," said Mike as he unscrewed a bottle of water and drank some.756Please respect copyright.PENANAoRDOyFNxRV
"That's not what Mino said," said Zoey with her hands on her hips.756Please respect copyright.PENANAERKcxtOrd2
"You should have seen the dance battle these two had," said Mino. "It was pretty awesome."756Please respect copyright.PENANAXDGxdfuDPV
"I would also love to see it," said Jinwoo.756Please respect copyright.PENANAGGqimNGGoG
"Pretty, please?" Seungyoon pleaded with his hands clapped together and looking at me with those cute adorable eyes of his.756Please respect copyright.PENANAc5gtpOGC6J
Apparently, he wasn't 756Please respect copyright.PENANAf9A3istxrf
the only one doing the puppy eye thing. The four WINNER members were all756Please respect copyright.PENANAZxVg5arFz1
doing but as they looked at me. Mino even had to pout his lips and that756Please respect copyright.PENANA0NKVjF8vk3
just made him look even more adorable.756Please respect copyright.PENANApSoRD8USmF
I wanted to look away but I couldn't. They were really making me do something I didn't want to do.756Please respect copyright.PENANAaTdlrFcoVC
"Come on, Sam," said Zoey. "Look, they are even doing the puppy eyes. So cute."756Please respect copyright.PENANAUCyizJDTRo
I rolled my eyes and sighed. "Fine. Let's battle," I said as I walked over to the audio Beats by Dre pill.756Please respect copyright.PENANA5qGDViianz
"Yes!" I heard the four 756Please respect copyright.PENANAD0yvEbX633
of them cheer. I smiled at their reaction as I got my phone and looked 756Please respect copyright.PENANAySBxrpQBwb
at the track list. Then, something came to me.756Please respect copyright.PENANAIlH0b59ivU
"Change of plans, Zoey,"756Please respect copyright.PENANA0tzkBfB0Uh
I said as I turned around. Everyone's eyes were now on me. "If you want756Please respect copyright.PENANAcqrzRXdcut
this dance battle, I suggest we pick another song."756Please respect copyright.PENANA8QzQcoyuL6
"Okay, fine," said Zoey. "I'm up for it."756Please respect copyright.PENANAYiknkPndsZ
"Since we danced to one of your favourite songs, I'll pick my own." I gave her a smirk. "And it's a k-pop song."756Please respect copyright.PENANAXrTidw7YMt
"This just got interesting," said Mino.756Please respect copyright.PENANAVss0Tad6Xe
"Fine, whatever." Zoey rolled her eyes. "What song are we dancing to?"756Please respect copyright.PENANABQwvhtaKBs
"Ringa Linga (링가 링가) by Taeyang," I beamed. "One of my personal favourites."756Please respect copyright.PENANAUjH3axsUSN
"Taeyang is going to 756Please respect copyright.PENANAyRyaeS7eCs
love this," said Mike as he went over to his gym bag to get his phone. 756Please respect copyright.PENANAx1VCehC5x0
"Good song choice by the way, Sam. It's also one of my favourites."756Please respect copyright.PENANAPVTdbG5wev
"Thanks," I smiled at my brother who had his phone ready to capture a video. I turned to look at Zoey. "Ready for this."756Please respect copyright.PENANAlHBfddvIRK
"Totally," said Zoey, as she looked back at me.756Please respect copyright.PENANA4widl3eIaB
I tapped the track on my756Please respect copyright.PENANAfFYYitDYfL
phone and quickly put the phone next to the audio pill and quickly 756Please respect copyright.PENANAzevRAF4IRr
rushed to stand face to face with Zoey.756Please respect copyright.PENANAUienKzzMMz
When the song started, I756Please respect copyright.PENANA5HqeRROWKi
took the dance floor and danced. Then Zoey stepped in. We kept taking 756Please respect copyright.PENANADhaVh1uwfF
turns, but whenever it came to the chorus, she and I would dance 756Please respect copyright.PENANAa2x6YGhkjl
together, dancing to the actual moves done in the actual music video. I 756Please respect copyright.PENANA9yy1z4EXWU
was a little surprised dancing to the moves because I had never tried to756Please respect copyright.PENANAFZImtgNKT8
practice on them before. All I ever did was watch. And Zoey was also 756Please respect copyright.PENANAWAEpxHILGR
doing a pretty good with the moves too.756Please respect copyright.PENANAG6ourXKut8
When the song was done and Zoey and I stood there in our stance, there was a loud cheer coming from the others.756Please respect copyright.PENANAuPV1ctzzPz
"Wow, totally mind blowing," said Jinwoo.756Please respect copyright.PENANAQYCtALYWJS
"Whenever it came to the756Please respect copyright.PENANAokRdkQjvbZ
chorus, it didn't look like you were having a dance battle at all," 756Please respect copyright.PENANAr7VDsTmtwR
sais Seungyoon. "I've to say, that was pretty sweet to watch."756Please respect copyright.PENANAuWIogTNVmz
"I loved everything about this dance battle," said Mino. "I could watch you two all day long."756Please respect copyright.PENANAOFoDzv2P0Z
"Thanks, guys," I said.756Please respect copyright.PENANAyODw0bXKIa
"I loved that you danced to that song," said Christine.756Please respect copyright.PENANADS75slwMTv
"Now, coming to my 756Please respect copyright.PENANAQoJOtHuupZ
question," started Zoey, trying to gather her breath. I rolled my eyes 756Please respect copyright.PENANAdsUeVVdz3w
as I walked away and got a water bottle from Christine. "Who do you 756Please respect copyright.PENANAAMYzSlkNag
think is a better dancer?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAM5hMdJRw9B
"Wait," I said before anyone could say anything. I put the bottle of water to my lips and drank some water. "Don't answer that."756Please respect copyright.PENANAsWyidHxDGp
"Why?" Zoey asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAoJkn4dVNAi
"I think you and I both 756Please respect copyright.PENANAaixDd3PBGX
danced really well and there is no need to ask. Besides, you and I have 756Please respect copyright.PENANAb8TxXB3gP4
never practised on those moves in our lives, especially on the chorus. 756Please respect copyright.PENANAmP1lAW9cAw
That counts for something, right?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAD9uVeMXocX
"I agree with Sam," said Daniel. "You two were great."756Please respect copyright.PENANAuoZKAqxw5k
"Sam is right," said Seungyoon. "I wouldn't also fuss about it if I were you."756Please respect copyright.PENANAWRB66aYDQx
"I still want to know though," said Zoey.756Please respect copyright.PENANAkcONgGJWYH
"Fine, I've a better idea," said Mike. "Why don't we ask the whole world to vote?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAhkADNVwvPC
"Wait, you want to ask our fans?" Daniel asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANASm9Jp08deD
"Well, ya." Mike 756Please respect copyright.PENANAoHaF9GuY1T
shrugged his shoulders. "I don't want to vote because I think it's 756Please respect copyright.PENANAe6w948vs2R
pretty obvious who is the best." He put so much emphasis on that last 756Please respect copyright.PENANAla76XvZEBB
sentence as he looked at Zoey.756Please respect copyright.PENANAY9FcYvkw6b
"Mike's right," said Zoey as she approached him. "Let our fans choose who won the dance battle."756Please respect copyright.PENANAEEbeQAvPEu
"This is pathetic," I muttered to myself as I drank some more water.756Please respect copyright.PENANABWt3SMAash
"I also think it will be756Please respect copyright.PENANAvi1iGrtMD5
great if the fans see this," said Jinwoo. "They will love it and will 756Please respect copyright.PENANAdNClUeLnQP
obviously bring out a better opinion."756Please respect copyright.PENANACbanGSeOAR
"See, even Jinwoo agrees," said Zoey as she looked at me.756Please respect copyright.PENANA3yhQgeB5Wv
"Count me out of it," I 756Please respect copyright.PENANAKE9T5t2eiI
said as I raised my hands midway in the air and took a step back. "I 756Please respect copyright.PENANAzqGiJ2QMPG
don't care what you people do at the end of the day."756Please respect copyright.PENANAUQDaOjYwGQ
"Fine, I'll create a 756Please respect copyright.PENANAkiyy3SdWXj
voting poll and upload the video. At the end of the day, we will see how756Please respect copyright.PENANAvG8jHhnZdm
all this comes out," said Mike, as he tapped away on his phone. "Though756Please respect copyright.PENANAJTsw7eRgOZ
I'm pretty sure Sam will win."756Please respect copyright.PENANAwAgqKQUfWs
"You're just saying that because she's your sister," said Zoey. "I know I'm going to win."756Please respect copyright.PENANA1OtdQvhUZP
"No, it's because I'm speaking the truth. Daniel, back me up on this one."756Please respect copyright.PENANASSPVK0pYnz
"Don't look at me, I would rather see what the fans think," said Daniel.756Please respect copyright.PENANAL25l0gk7dD
Zoey and Mike soon got 756Please respect copyright.PENANA3AjZTJY8dg
into their little debate while the others listened. I decided to ignore 756Please respect copyright.PENANAz6cIiPFuq5
them and went over to get my phone and the audio pill. Looked like 756Please respect copyright.PENANAmDqfmnrSzs
practise was already over since everyone was now talking about the dance756Please respect copyright.PENANAfDuGruLcqg
battle.756Please respect copyright.PENANAd5i6PUPGcz
I got my phone and the 756Please respect copyright.PENANA0eXgX4iPTO
pill in my other hand. I was checking my phone for any messages until I 756Please respect copyright.PENANAqr42DQIMly
soon felt a sudden presence of someone standing next to me.756Please respect copyright.PENANA47UrKcGhKN
"Well, you don't seem so enthusiastic about the whole thing," came Jinwoo.756Please respect copyright.PENANAnn3rdZWOd6
I turned to look at him 756Please respect copyright.PENANAzozAEKZSUM
and he had that friendly smile on his face. I smiled back at him in an 756Please respect copyright.PENANAwujXNA3cUj
instant. Felt more like an impulse. His smile was so warm, you couldn't 756Please respect copyright.PENANAF57gQJ5UmG
easily ignore it. Even a person who had been grumpy the whole day would 756Please respect copyright.PENANAL6L2RP56V9
smile if they were to look at him.756Please respect copyright.PENANAe3DESSUZWh
"No," I replied, still with a smile on my face. "I don't want to know what the fans think and I'm clearly not in a mood."756Please respect copyright.PENANANqk8L4LlXa
"If you ask me, I think you clearly won the dance battle," he said.756Please respect copyright.PENANAcYTD4U9Rpv
"Thanks, but make sure Zoey doesn't hear that. I wouldn't like to see her yell at you."756Please respect copyright.PENANAxPI2InyY1Q
"Trust me, I wouldn't. Mike did say she is a drama queen for a reason."756Please respect copyright.PENANAR2QCHF1gBB
"You're right about that."756Please respect copyright.PENANAIR5bs7bAQ5
I looked behind me with a756Please respect copyright.PENANAAe8ULAuCsR
smile and I could see the debate heating up a little. I wasn't too 756Please respect copyright.PENANAG8u1Hj9PWi
worried about my brother and Zoey. They might have their differences, 756Please respect copyright.PENANARDmWgERVYV
but they never got into a serious fight, better yet a physical one. The 756Please respect copyright.PENANA8Jt4qUhDFV
two of them arguing was an everyday drama I never got to stress over.756Please respect copyright.PENANAJ4eBiXV1XZ
"They aren't going to stop, are they?" Jinwoo asked. 756Please respect copyright.PENANAQor8mGATrq
"Not anytime soon," I said as I looked at him. "What are we planning to do today, anyway? We all can't stay here at YG."756Please respect copyright.PENANAn14aDW8k9j
"Have no clue. Any bright ideas?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAKrAOdKJX04
"No, not yet actually." I stared at my phone to look at the time. "It's almost ten. Collins expects us to be here till lunch."756Please respect copyright.PENANAaait1WFdLR
"Maybe we can sneak out. And go some place to have fun."756Please respect copyright.PENANADFOV26fLwf
"Ya, you're right. Though we all shouldn't be seen together or else it will raise questions."756Please respect copyright.PENANAG0FUvOmLs5
"May I ask what you two are up to?" Christine asked as she approached us with Daniel.756Please respect copyright.PENANA9eyfBbufG9
"We're planning a way to sneak out of the place without being seen together," I replied.756Please respect copyright.PENANAhJy997c9B7
"Sneak out? Why?" Daniel asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAE5dIwy33PE
"We made plans to hang out with WINNER, didn't we? And we can't do it here."756Please respect copyright.PENANAjyJ9qpRrKx
"Then, how are we going to get out?" Christine asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANADGvJuPLkRY
"It's a Sunday and there isn't a lot of people around," said Jinwoo. "It's not going to be that complicated."756Please respect copyright.PENANAve47Yt6LjI
"I sure hope so," I 756Please respect copyright.PENANAU2CQZpxdsP
said. I turned to look at Christine and Daniel. "Let's all hit the 756Please respect copyright.PENANAqkYsyZyr68
showers real quick and then we can leave this place."756Please respect copyright.PENANAyOpwNdsKnV
"What about those two?" 756Please respect copyright.PENANAZjQho5bHTC
Daniel asked with his thumb pointing at Zoey and Mike behind him who 756Please respect copyright.PENANAOKCRbis7B3
were still debating. It looked it would turn into an argument anytime 756Please respect copyright.PENANAUSxnjHgKIa
soon.756Please respect copyright.PENANAbE4cMs63HC
"They will notice when 756Please respect copyright.PENANAlCy8P43LKg
we're gone," I said. "If the others ask where we are, tell them we've 756Please respect copyright.PENANAJCal6Mtb7M
gone to freshen up, will you, Jinwoo?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAfUISJugEVZ
"Sure," he said with a smile.756Please respect copyright.PENANAtx8cRH4tOY
Christine, Daniel and I 756Please respect copyright.PENANARBuUVoFiRr
went over to get our gyms bags and we walked out of the studio without 756Please respect copyright.PENANAPt0wYuxnll
the others even noticing, except for Jinwoo of course.756Please respect copyright.PENANAcuHMBuE8O2
Twenty minutes later, I 756Please respect copyright.PENANAJeA8FsUR6F
was walking out of the girl's shower room all freshened and dressed up 756Please respect copyright.PENANAmv1ddAcxLs
in a white t-shirt with blue polkadots and matching black jeans with 756Please respect copyright.PENANAPYaJEJl5GX
flat black boots. I was carrying my gym bag and was walking alongside 756Please respect copyright.PENANAVP1QH1tbjn
Christine who wore a pretty apple green summer dress. We had left Zoey 756Please respect copyright.PENANAILgQBFgXmz
in the shower room, still patching herself up.756Please respect copyright.PENANAWDVIwGvGdu
"Well, you look pretty today in that dress," I said as I looked at Christine.756Please respect copyright.PENANAW21TqaU7mF
"Oh, thanks," said Christine as she smiled. "I just thought of wearing it."756Please respect copyright.PENANAnUMULoVSqK
"Why? Anything special?"756Please respect copyright.PENANABJuyJWLEA5
"No, why do you ask?" Christine looked at me with an eyebrow raised.756Please respect copyright.PENANASsSepYlO38
"Oh, nothing," I stared 756Please respect copyright.PENANAuvr3R3k5Mf
up at the ceiling as we were soon approaching the men's shower room. "I 756Please respect copyright.PENANA68btVcGHIa
thought since that dress is so pretty and nice, you must have worn it 756Please respect copyright.PENANAocTWj8xcb9
either for a special occasion or for a special someone."756Please respect copyright.PENANAFwQjCXDEvf
We stopped right at the open entrance of the men's shower room and Christine looked at me.756Please respect copyright.PENANAIIQK0yhiBz
"There is no special occasion," said Christine.756Please respect copyright.PENANAXGoWSzUeY2
"Then it's for a special someone, right?" I looked her directly in the eye and I had a playful smile on my face.756Please respect copyright.PENANAWdJ9Ta1ono
"It's not that either." She rolled her eyes.756Please respect copyright.PENANAaiyP4k5Jbg
"Your eyes say it all, Christine. And I know it's one of the guys from WINNER."756Please respect copyright.PENANA101TXrxALA
"What are you talking about?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAj2aXbzp2rB
"You like Jinwoo, don't you?"756Please respect copyright.PENANANrYoUarCHZ
Christine's mouth fell 756Please respect copyright.PENANAuBhydBLmZn
open and she closed it immediately. I could see that she was blushing 756Please respect copyright.PENANAqDel4WEr96
and she managed to look away thinking that I wouldn't notice.756Please respect copyright.PENANAHccWwmcWRk
"No, I don't," she said.756Please respect copyright.PENANAvERGsj7Vj1
"Jinwoo is a nice guy but that doesn't mean I 'like like' him. Maybe I 756Please respect copyright.PENANA5ASksDS31a
do like him but only as a fan girl."756Please respect copyright.PENANAm8FtR4DEwH
"Please, I saw the way 756Please respect copyright.PENANAP5ibQTN3xy
you looked at him yesterday and today. There is no doubt in my mind that756Please respect copyright.PENANA9DToGBR2KK
you really like him. If you ask me, you two would make a great couple."756Please respect copyright.PENANAzv4VEXdX4N
"Stop dreaming, Sam," 756Please respect copyright.PENANAANbUYqvRHs
said Christine. "Don't forget Collins' golden rule. We can't date any of756Please respect copyright.PENANA3XJoE3MvBn
these guys. And besides, I only like Jinwoo as a friend and nothing 756Please respect copyright.PENANALNmFGa8i9d
more."756Please respect copyright.PENANA5jR8DUzYfc
"Ya, right," I said as I756Please respect copyright.PENANA5BKV5dE0OU
folded my arms. "I saw the way you looked at the both of us when we 756Please respect copyright.PENANApL9DcrL31A
were discussing on how we were going to sneak out of here. You had that 756Please respect copyright.PENANA14TYgnCP7m
weird look on your face."756Please respect copyright.PENANA7D1Rn21ptY
"What weird look?"756Please respect copyright.PENANA9sjbpt3Nvh
"The jealous one."756Please respect copyright.PENANAdrqhjAS88e
"Spare me the drama, Sam."756Please respect copyright.PENANAtAbWju3wKL
"If Zoey was the one 756Please respect copyright.PENANAchMK0arVUw
talking to you about this right now, you wouldn't have the chance to 756Please respect copyright.PENANAXU37nOg6AP
breathe. At least I'm not even pushing you to admit that you like 756Please respect copyright.PENANACcNyKaIwv9
Jinwoo."756Please respect copyright.PENANACn07zG23sE
"You do have a point," said Christine as she nodded her head and stared at the ceiling.756Please respect copyright.PENANAaTauW8dwcJ
"Which one? The part for Zoey or the fact that you like Jinwoo?"756Please respect copyright.PENANATRHgSdnWgt
"Very smart, Sam." She frowned at me. "But I'm not falling for that one."756Please respect copyright.PENANA8ESVWKCiup
I winced. She caught me. Now I wouldn't know if she really liked him or not.756Please respect copyright.PENANAWb9pgAYdKZ
The boys suddenly appeared coming out of the men's shower all dressed up and ready to go.756Please respect copyright.PENANAObVCQXdx8B
"Well, someone looks nice today," said Daniel as he looked at Christine.756Please respect copyright.PENANAulfHt0DXOC
"Oh, thanks, Daniel," said Christine as she smiled.756Please respect copyright.PENANAijXM2IwEnc
"See, even Daniel has noticed that you're glowing," I said as I smiled at Christine.756Please respect copyright.PENANA02S7maWYFs
"She is," said Mike, as he looked at Christine. "Anything special going on?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAkhKYnfrtFP
"No!" Christine answered quickly and shaking her head.756Please respect copyright.PENANA5l4AivBrPg
Mike gave Christine a 756Please respect copyright.PENANA7QjE8Eijqf
look and shrugged his shoulders afterwards, brushing it off. But I knew 756Please respect copyright.PENANARdYBQgcEb3
that look very well. He had a hunch that something was up. And he wasn't756Please respect copyright.PENANAsSiBaK4Gpi
wrong about that.756Please respect copyright.PENANACtqBSDHJTi
We decided to go back to756Please respect copyright.PENANAiJjZpWSvKF
the dance studio where WINNER were waiting for us, hoping that Zoey 756Please respect copyright.PENANAd26BVo5Uvm
would catch up with us sooner or later. And when we got into the studio,756Please respect copyright.PENANAPEAyB0t5i3
this happened:756Please respect copyright.PENANAbV5uqoxka0
"Wow, you two ladies are looking fine," said Mino, his eyes fixed on Christine and I.756Please respect copyright.PENANA4VKfY6zEgC
"Just magnificent," said Seungyoon.756Please respect copyright.PENANA5iB6tiZzIL
"Thanks," Christine and I replied at the same time.756Please respect copyright.PENANAck4YCunOpO
"You're all just smoking hot," said Seunghoon. His eyes then fully rested on me. "Especially you, Sam."756Please respect copyright.PENANAbuLKmDu63c
I wanted to frown at him756Please respect copyright.PENANAzbIYqZY2Bc
but I ended up blushing instead. He smiled at me and winked. At that 756Please respect copyright.PENANAmRC8cvNFgw
moment, I felt like my heart was about to explode.756Please respect copyright.PENANABVsR0jvW8C
"I think Christine also looks really nice," said Jinwoo with a smile.756Please respect copyright.PENANASXNlypourm
I looked at Jinwoo and I756Please respect copyright.PENANAzQ0DH43Khb
couldn't help but notice that smile on his face. I accidentally smiled 756Please respect copyright.PENANApLnnJQx64W
at him and then at Christine. Mike who stood beside her looked at me 756Please respect copyright.PENANAPkhWx7EeLL
with an eyebrow raised. I quickly looked away.756Please respect copyright.PENANA0xZGh8C2Kh
"Thanks," said Christine, as she blushed.756Please respect copyright.PENANAYljQjnVJJS
"Where is Zoey?" Seungyoon asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAWKEMNLUPL8
"Making herself look like a barbie doll," said Daniel.756Please respect copyright.PENANAos18Bqmium
"Ya, that's how I would put it," I said with a smirk. "And she's taking forever. She should be here by now."756Please respect copyright.PENANAj9YxXyUYJi
"Want to go and check up on her?" Mino asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAVS7Q6dqNhT
"Good idea. Let's go."756Please respect copyright.PENANAT1ppLwTSP3
"You're going with Mino?" Seunghoon asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAmxwhoPKu39
"Do you have a problem with that?" I asked as I dropped my gym bag to the floor and folded my arms.756Please respect copyright.PENANAXNEH5ELqtB
Before he could say 756Please respect copyright.PENANAqR1UaLGoxO
anything, I quickly turned around and started to walk out of the room. I756Please respect copyright.PENANAH4FT1Tsv6n
heard footsteps behind me and I could tell it was Mino. When we stepped756Please respect copyright.PENANARnhnuUuoOn
out of the room, he was snickering.756Please respect copyright.PENANAi6Osl9MESc
"You really put him in his place, didn't you?" Mino asked as we walked down the hall.756Please respect copyright.PENANAo91Ffmpmph
"Just because I'm his 756Please respect copyright.PENANAOlPwSbcTVj
bias doesn't mean he could follow me around," I said. "I mean, him being756Please respect copyright.PENANAM4OXG3VxQV
in my closet last night was more than enough, don't you think?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAN5eB7RBjhP
"Ya, trying to hide in your closet was a pretty big surprise."756Please respect copyright.PENANAWFUO4KfYP9
"And you all helped him with it. How did you manage to get on our floor and trip the hotel lights anyway?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAoUkZ8iHZ2C
"Actually, it was only 756Please respect copyright.PENANAiVt0UGYxA1
just your floor that we tripped the lights on. And if it came to coming 756Please respect copyright.PENANAlYsuQXQtYw
to your floor, we pulled a few strings."756Please respect copyright.PENANAXehy1MFUP3
"How can I forget. You're WINNER." I rolled my eyes.756Please respect copyright.PENANAKcTOgA1ZwN
Mino laughed and I heard him mutter, "cute." I pretended I never heard that and raised the corner of my lips to a smile.756Please respect copyright.PENANAt06fK2Ffab
When we got to the 756Please respect copyright.PENANAKEyzslwt8W
elevator, I was just about to push the elevator button when the doors 756Please respect copyright.PENANAGIN4uEYnBF
suddenly flew open. My jaw dropped when I saw who was standing right 756Please respect copyright.PENANAxMfEL3KCCz
inside the elevator.756Please respect copyright.PENANAzLU3ZhT0HF
"You look really surprised to see me," said TOP, as he stepped out.756Please respect copyright.PENANAY65wEm7kWN
"I....." I cleared my throat. "I haven't seen you in a while now."756Please respect copyright.PENANAhZhJRZ8Mh4
"Did you miss me?" he asked as he gave me that bad boy smile of his and stepped closer, giving me a hug.756Please respect copyright.PENANAn8220GbNP9
"I did actually. I thought you might be busy with something these past days," I said as we broke away from each other.756Please respect copyright.PENANAIECcyWY5I0
"I was. And I see G-Dragon wasn't lying about what happened yesterday."756Please respect copyright.PENANAkEYDAptSXK
TOP turned to look at Mino who gave him a salute. TOP smiled as his eyes flew back to me.756Please respect copyright.PENANAdaJytyEFrU
"You know you're going get in so much trouble, right?" TOP asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANArIctLaM4yc
"We know," I said. "I managed to try and convince Collins for us to come here. We will be sneaking out very soon."756Please respect copyright.PENANAv7p2D4jasa
"Sneaking out together? Don't you think that's too risky. No one should even know that you've already met."756Please respect copyright.PENANAWGEHMCbZ71
"We came up with something," said Mino. "Don't you worry."756Please respect copyright.PENANAggcsqazAF4
"Well, if you're 756Please respect copyright.PENANAjFcPArBg4k
planning to sneak out, then you better do it fast." TOP had a smirk on 756Please respect copyright.PENANAtcO2UqLC8D
his face and I could tell something was up.756Please respect copyright.PENANAOrX7zoGsU8
"Wait a minute," I stopped TOP before he could say anything else. "Your manager is here, isn't he?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAcy2oC7WL7s
"Did you just read my mind?" TOP asked. "I like that."756Please respect copyright.PENANA5BQEf4zlbq
"No, I read your body language." I put my palm over my forehead. "This is bad. Where is he?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAQepsxMtjwM
"He's downstairs with some visitors," said TOP. "He plans on showing them around the place."756Please respect copyright.PENANAWb4w3DZsgY
"And if he sees us together he is going to freak out," said Mino.756Please respect copyright.PENANARGB7Thpd6k
"What are you doing here anyway?" I asked TOP. "It's a Sunday."756Please respect copyright.PENANAEDtkCu9SQ0
"I came to see you guys 756Please respect copyright.PENANAElq88Cx8lY
at the hotel and Lee told me you were here practising," TOP answered. 756Please respect copyright.PENANAaq1mxa2fL2
"Which you aren't doing at the moment."756Please respect copyright.PENANAadVAgTBMrq
"We were done minutes ago. Right now, we have to figure out how we are going to dodge your dear manager."756Please respect copyright.PENANAI039npv2cz
"Ya, while you figure that out, they will be coming up any moment now."756Please respect copyright.PENANAtPVY6Kue6n
"Okay, then you go and 756Please respect copyright.PENANAMUyKDpUEHc
tell the others not to leave," I instructed him. "I'll go down with Mino756Please respect copyright.PENANA8GK4703XbK
to get Zoey as fast as we could."756Please respect copyright.PENANAAfUts6z2pe
"I hate it when someone orders me around but I'll do it for you anyway," said TOP as he held my chin for a brief moment.756Please respect copyright.PENANALDUNWJyBnv
"Thanks," I said as I looked at Mino and he and I both went in the elevator.756Please respect copyright.PENANApHB3G39o0J
We headed downstairs to 756Please respect copyright.PENANAQFqx3NVu5n
the shower room and just as we stepped out of the elevator, there was 756Please respect copyright.PENANAa6m8eVBH1u
Zoey in the hall, taking selfies with her phone.756Please respect copyright.PENANAl8hpPmKjzu
"There you are," I said as we walked up to her. "What took you so long?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAUe8XVCbWBe
"Trying to look good," 756Please respect copyright.PENANAGuYPlqbqYc
said Zoey as she put her phone away in her gym bag. "Besides, I had to 756Please respect copyright.PENANAoawCC1e8GO
take a few photos for my fans. They complain they haven't seen me in a 756Please respect copyright.PENANAjzQspY58oN
while. What are you two doing here? I was just about to come up."756Please respect copyright.PENANAy5EiIJhlmx
"Well, the worst is happening," said Mino.756Please respect copyright.PENANAvMxDJe5cxs
"Don't tell me Collins is here," said Zoey with a horrified look on her face.756Please respect copyright.PENANAAjqNEcJEly
"That's even a better guess," I said. "It's Yang Hyun-suk."756Please respect copyright.PENANAEel7fEP0TS
"You're kidding, right?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAAGNrz6a4Ur
"No," said Mino. "TOP just told us he's here and he's not alone."756Please respect copyright.PENANARdA0FLfxnL
"This isn't good," said Zoey. "What are we going to do?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAA0ciFGNOuE
"He shouldn't see The Toxins with WINNER," I said. "That's what we have to do. Come on, let's go before he gets here."756Please respect copyright.PENANAS3yLwrwi2C
Just as I turned around 756Please respect copyright.PENANAbVL3DrWpp3
to head back to the elevator, I saw the elevator monitor show that 756Please respect copyright.PENANAOrAJanfEzy
someone or some people were coming up the elevator and had stopped on 756Please respect copyright.PENANAbwad7FcOpC
the the floor we were on.756Please respect copyright.PENANAqYMZe0j1ZS
"Quick, let's go the other way," I said, quickly turning around and rushing down the hall before the elevator doors could open.756Please respect copyright.PENANAg1RqklzKpQ
Just as we turned round a756Please respect copyright.PENANAM8TlM0trj5
corner, near the women's shower room was a door. I quickly opened it. 756Please respect copyright.PENANAgC1LMhu69y
It was a janitor's closet. I let the other two go in before I did. I 756Please respect copyright.PENANAGJDk3NnhL2
heard voices coming down the hall from the elevator and I silently 756Please respect copyright.PENANACaN8PeJyNn
closed the door. The room was soon covered in darkness.756Please respect copyright.PENANAHImHJbNICq
"What are we doing in here?" Zoey asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAMtf1exs6yG
"Ssh, keep your voice down," I whispered.756Please respect copyright.PENANAIJpCuLw9VW
"Fine," she whispered. "What are we doing in here?"756Please respect copyright.PENANABumA4Wulge
"What do you think we're doing? Hiding from Yang Hyun-suk."756Please respect copyright.PENANAGHtxmzXX8Q
"Are you sure it's him coming out of that elevator?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAdSy4SORaCv
I didn't say anything as756Please respect copyright.PENANAZIxDdHTgJQ
we all listened quietly and heard voices and footsteps coming down the 756Please respect copyright.PENANAiXVJX9aKc9
hall. The people bypassed the door and I could clearly hear Yang 756Please respect copyright.PENANABDKQIxADWa
Hyun-suk's voice.756Please respect copyright.PENANAejG0up1Bjc
Gosh, I muttered in my head. If I hadn't thought of hiding when I saw the elevator monitor, we would have been in so much trouble.756Please respect copyright.PENANAipk9H9rF4D
We heard the footsteps and voices start to fade as they went further down the hall.756Please respect copyright.PENANAdKY4qcNm5U
"What are we going to do now?" Mino whispered.756Please respect copyright.PENANApJuaSUxJYE
"And it's so dark in here," whispered Zoey.756Please respect copyright.PENANAy2ohbXQnxL
I checked around with my756Please respect copyright.PENANAmiQ3BQXaKs
hand on the wall for a switch. And when I found it, I flipped it and 756Please respect copyright.PENANArlQInBh7Qm
the light went on in the tiny room.756Please respect copyright.PENANA6dlCeSW1uv
"Have they left?" Zoey asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANABTkUN8enDL
I put my ear to the door and listened. I could still hear the faint murmuring of voices down the hall.756Please respect copyright.PENANAirHkp5Ev5k
I shook my head. "They are still there."756Please respect copyright.PENANA6gV5DltszR
Mino and Zoey both 756Please respect copyright.PENANApvMY5yqvP7
muttered in frustration. They were so impatient to get out of this tiny 756Please respect copyright.PENANAwitoa3WztY
closet which was soon starting to get a bit uncomfortable. One thing I 756Please respect copyright.PENANAL0jY7gh4Pt
don't like is closed spaces, not that I was claustrophobic. Right now, 756Please respect copyright.PENANAcE7R9FtKUe
we were so squeezed I was afraid I was going to drop in the bucket 756Please respect copyright.PENANAGYZvWLyg57
behind me.756Please respect copyright.PENANA6oaXoPMgsm
I leaned on the door to hear if they were still in the hall. I couldn't hear anything.756Please respect copyright.PENANASXOfhV0REf
"I think they are gone," I whispered.756Please respect copyright.PENANAR1x3zVAau5
"Try and check," Mino whispered.756Please respect copyright.PENANAeJwU15QGJW
I took hold of the door 756Please respect copyright.PENANAbLJJHigKh7
knob and slowly turned it. When it opened, I slowly and carefully swung 756Please respect copyright.PENANAYFbZQddywc
the door open so that it wouldn't make any noise. I poked my head out of756Please respect copyright.PENANAyT6k8s3m7k
the room and looked left and right. The hall was clear.756Please respect copyright.PENANAFgpRc878qm
"Come on," I said to the others as I swung the door wide open.756Please respect copyright.PENANAa9FD41rNDM
I stepped out of the janitor's room and Mino and Zoey followed. I slowly closed the door.756Please respect copyright.PENANA30p9tGV8sd
"It looks like they went towards the men's shower room," said Mino as he looked down the hall.756Please respect copyright.PENANAyd6laTx0KI
"That gives us enough time to use the elevator and head upstairs," I said.756Please respect copyright.PENANAmrYHUUWR7J
The three of us were 756Please respect copyright.PENANAQYoa8pwpSH
quickly running down the hall towards the elevator when Zoey's phone 756Please respect copyright.PENANAKYYZcD3Xlz
rang in her gym bag. And as if by coincidence, Yang Hyun-suk's voice was756Please respect copyright.PENANAj02lLBx07i
heard down the hall. They were coming back our way and had probably 756Please respect copyright.PENANA5zScCBSD1N
heard the phone ring.756Please respect copyright.PENANAch1cKOLv1S
"What are we going to do?" Zoey asked as she panicked looking for her phone in her bag.756Please respect copyright.PENANAcd7kfznhXS
I quickly took the bag 756Please respect copyright.PENANA0cKVlpd1Ls
strap from her shoulder and said, "he's heard us now, you two go back 756Please respect copyright.PENANAr44jjbHcW4
upstairs and get the others out while I distract him for a while. And 756Please respect copyright.PENANAaJbnkx7vIt
you should figure a way to get out of the building before he notices 756Please respect copyright.PENANAnaSrfy7Bw2
anything strange."756Please respect copyright.PENANAH1pveqi5oZ
"You want us to leave you here?" Mino asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANA1tLzv9P7aO
"Just go, I'll buy you time. And don't use the elevator when you come down, take the stairs."756Please respect copyright.PENANADEIrSdjhIS
Mino and Zoey quickly 756Please respect copyright.PENANAnQg4I0VIH2
ran for the elevator and got in just in time before Yang Hyun-suk 756Please respect copyright.PENANAX2spiTzX4U
appeared round the corner with other people behind him. Two men and a 756Please respect copyright.PENANAX3aGQB4lrX
lady. Zoey's phone was still ringing in her bag and I was looking for 756Please respect copyright.PENANAvm8dYuYWuS
it. When I finally retrieved it, I quickly looked at the caller ID. It 756Please respect copyright.PENANA0ORuZkUgFG
was Christine. I cut the line immediately.756Please respect copyright.PENANAZsnYjqZxR2
"I was wondering who was down here," said Yang Hyun-suk as he with his visitors approached me. "Nice to see you, Sam."756Please respect copyright.PENANARxs9zgCzVa
I quickly bowed to Yang Hyun-suk and to the visitors.756Please respect copyright.PENANAX8Vk9zJn5s
A woman who was with them said, "I see you've grown into the Korean culture pretty quickly. I've to say I'm really impressed."756Please respect copyright.PENANALMnxDe9na1
I gave them a little 756Please respect copyright.PENANAd09ak0aS8z
smile while the other two men happily agreed. Yang Hyun-suk soon 756Please respect copyright.PENANAcqdSUU5Ubm
introduced them to me as the Chinese Internationals who had come to see 756Please respect copyright.PENANAw7kzkYIZ3r
the place.756Please respect copyright.PENANA3HIxWUlyYG
"I see that you're done practising," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Where are the others?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAC9u5gOFKeV
"Yes, they are waiting for me downstairs," I replied.756Please respect copyright.PENANAMOHLRQwVni
"I must say, I watched 756Please respect copyright.PENANAkOOeb6QNsz
your stunning performance you did with BigBang at the Arts Centre a few 756Please respect copyright.PENANAraxDOzWIrw
days ago," said the slim looking Chinese man, who wore glasses and a 756Please respect copyright.PENANA8GcMNs3jFd
black suit.756Please respect copyright.PENANASlWzHUbmz2
"Gomawoyo (고마워요) (Thank you)," I said as I bowed my head.756Please respect copyright.PENANARtFz2wI3cp
"You really do have good manners," said other man.756Please respect copyright.PENANAfDnDeOjZvr
"Yang Hyun-suk wasn't joking when he said that you're fast learner," said the lady giving me a smile.756Please respect copyright.PENANAYT53WrmLQj
"I always do my best," I said politely.756Please respect copyright.PENANAjGeV00xHOM
"I would really have liked it if you and your grou could perform for us," said the man in glasses.756Please respect copyright.PENANAc4d4OA3yu9
I felt my eyes were 756Please respect copyright.PENANA46SMojjPjf
about to fall out of their sockets but I tried my best not to act 756Please respect copyright.PENANA6fwmLHAmk4
surprised. All this just got a whole lot worse. What was I going to do 756Please respect copyright.PENANAywDHvdZoow
now? I couldn't call the others to head back to the dance studio. I bet 756Please respect copyright.PENANAcnML631CnA
as I'm thinking right now, they are probably heading down the stairs.756Please respect copyright.PENANAO460RzLkfj
"That will be great," I said with enthusiasm. "I'll just call the others to head back to the......"756Please respect copyright.PENANAs2zOF6Yhln
Yang Hyun-suk stopped me756Please respect copyright.PENANAu1dinoSuSQ
before I could say anything more. "No, I bet you guys are tired. 756Please respect copyright.PENANAPIe34YoxpN
Collins told me you were going back to the old routine, are you not?"756Please respect copyright.PENANARnmFqCGb8k
I didn't know where this was going but I was feeling relieved at the moment. "Yes," I replied as I nodded my head.756Please respect copyright.PENANA2wLI4WG9Vl
"Since you haven't done so in a while, I bet you're really tired or you would have practised even longer. Maybe next time."756Please respect copyright.PENANAeA7FBFvqnG
Phew! That was close. He has no idea how he just saved my life from his very own wrath. I was eternally grateful.756Please respect copyright.PENANAfL8A9mUnqM
"Yes, maybe next time," said the man in glasses.756Please respect copyright.PENANAZIbFD4hJa7
"Well, if you will excuse us, Sam," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We have places to be."756Please respect copyright.PENANAGAwZs3eOAD
I smiled as I bowed my 756Please respect copyright.PENANAdRayOCAof2
head and I made way for the manager and his visitors to pass to head to 756Please respect copyright.PENANAQxSu6JCFxd
the elevator. I was so relieved after they got in and the doors closed 756Please respect copyright.PENANAGDhqkXOJy0
shut before them. I held my beating heart. I hadn't realised how scared I756Please respect copyright.PENANA5rSPAc2QL5
was until now.756Please respect copyright.PENANAHL8YI11hEA
I quickly ran to the 756Please respect copyright.PENANAH2ULLYyEff
other end of the hall by passing the girl's shower room, turning a 756Please respect copyright.PENANAchnP6THpe4
corner and heading to the flight of stairs right after the men's shower 756Please respect copyright.PENANAVy4DlHSDeH
room. Just as I was about to descend the stairs, I heard voices and 756Please respect copyright.PENANAYxiZzJ3qxW
footsteps above me. I looked up and I saw the people I was expecting to 756Please respect copyright.PENANAgu93vYGNle
see.756Please respect copyright.PENANAWlwHKvoPZT
"Sam! You're okay," said Seunghoon as he was the first one to quickly rush down and reach me. He pulled me into a hug.756Please respect copyright.PENANAUGmejZxFvi
"I wasn't being a chased by a lion, you know?" I said as I broke away from him. "I'm fine."756Please respect copyright.PENANA9DKWA1DZ62
"I told you she can handle herself with your manager," said Zoey as she came down the downstairs with the rest.756Please respect copyright.PENANAH6Jrg5r5hI
"I had no doubt about that in my mind," said Seunghoon.756Please respect copyright.PENANAFwjTRH0E9k
"Then why did you hug me?" I asked shrugging my shoulders.756Please respect copyright.PENANAwbS4jNTXsI
"Because I missed you."756Please respect copyright.PENANAFauwDXEr2w
I rolled my eyes and said nothing.756Please respect copyright.PENANA0na5LS9TJ4
"Well, we all better get going or else you might just meet them again," said TOP.756Please respect copyright.PENANAJv6jwuLmvK
We all started to rush down the stairs, as if we were being chased by Yang Hyun-suk himself.756Please respect copyright.PENANACeNuTEBysU
When we reached the 756Please respect copyright.PENANAmWubEXUgJm
bottom of the stairs, we were faced with a new problem. We all couldn't 756Please respect copyright.PENANARBUCDPDns5
walk out through the main door because the receptionist was in the 756Please respect copyright.PENANACAe854jj3W
lobby.756Please respect copyright.PENANA9uhPYQjHSb
I was leaning on the wall of the entry way and taking a peak at the receptionist who was working on the computer.756Please respect copyright.PENANAQtFIhYqNgx
"I think I've an idea," I756Please respect copyright.PENANAm0AvrFNFhm
said as I turned to the others waiting in the hall. "One group is going756Please respect copyright.PENANAoJgi9mxUmJ
to head out through the main entrance and the other will take the 756Please respect copyright.PENANA6IdpX0eSuI
emergency exit door right down at the end of the hall."756Please respect copyright.PENANAM66Cr46OaS
"How do you know there is an emergency exit door back there?" Mino asked as he pointed down the hall.756Please respect copyright.PENANAnnh19SsPO4
I rolled my eyes. I 756Please respect copyright.PENANAiqxNqgHUiz
couldn't start explaining that I once used that door to sneak out myself756Please respect copyright.PENANAb04VJCz6Pu
due to some serious circumstances. When I mean that, I mean the 756Please respect copyright.PENANAVGnrUVy8dN
situation that happened with Zoey and the diamond smuggler.756Please respect copyright.PENANApdbXOab8Wp
"Because I'm smart 756Please respect copyright.PENANAS8rcSMTVjI
enough to know that there is one," I answered. "Don't all buildings such756Please respect copyright.PENANAozLWqmeUzq
as this one supposed to have an emergency exit?"756Please respect copyright.PENANAx6diyNpmiZ
Mino and TOP smiled at 756Please respect copyright.PENANAHdZxm2YXVy
me, that I couldn't tell if they were impressed that I was smart enough 756Please respect copyright.PENANAEbParWRXA6
to guess or that I already knew about the door. I brushed that thought 756Please respect copyright.PENANAmkho3D3ECt
away and tried to focus on the mission of getting out of here.756Please respect copyright.PENANAOwpP0S1xil
"We will take the back door," said Seungyoon. "Sam and the others will take the front."756Please respect copyright.PENANA3slOIkRxCG
"Why do we get the back door?" Mino asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANALzHDBQhw8H
"If we don't take the 756Please respect copyright.PENANAOP6dF38e2Y
front and Yang Hyun-suk asks the receptionist if we left, it's going to 756Please respect copyright.PENANA37Y0pf9tHq
raise suspicion," I said. "He knows The Toxins are here and not WINNER."756Please respect copyright.PENANAtctRTczAHq
"Well, you do make a good point," said Seunghoon.756Please respect copyright.PENANA0yPyBZf25Z
"She always does," said Christine and Daniel at the same time.756Please respect copyright.PENANAxJbMOheZiW
"You guys go right now 756Please respect copyright.PENANATJLisTOEPQ
and then we will come soon afterwards and meet you outside the gate," I 756Please respect copyright.PENANAdtzZDK3bYC
said. "TOP, you're coming with me and the Toxins."756Please respect copyright.PENANAAdc7jGc5VA
"May I know why?" he asked with an eyebrow raised.756Please respect copyright.PENANA5NAKqp6qkW
"Because I need you around."756Please respect copyright.PENANAShId2zZYb1
He smiled and I turned away before he could say anything more.756Please respect copyright.PENANAPxeoWUtHRz
Seungyoon and his group 756Please respect copyright.PENANAWqLB78REo9
started their way down the hall and went out through the exit door. I 756Please respect copyright.PENANAcXsQDXiab2
checked Zoey's phone which I still had in my hand and decided to wait 756Please respect copyright.PENANAoInxU6vS33
for ten minutes.756Please respect copyright.PENANApqf8ECsttP
"How long do we have to stay here?" Mike asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAJBZaKh1vXI
"A good ten minutes," I said as I checked the time on the phone again.756Please respect copyright.PENANAU4yyltCaVE
"These ten minutes will feel like forever," said Zoey with an annoying look on her face.756Please respect copyright.PENANAhmfnl7mqmV
"That is why patience pays," said Christine.756Please respect copyright.PENANAgpzunSmuQr
"So if you guys are 756Please respect copyright.PENANABUFHsP5bwS
going to hang out with WINNER, how are you going to do that without 756Please respect copyright.PENANAEm4JL1HoIL
drawing attention to yourselves?" TOP asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAFMLfX1hTE1
"Why do you ask?" I asked.756Please respect copyright.PENANAyyZj5JvAYX
"You guys can't just 756Please respect copyright.PENANAVMejBtwzNP
walk around the streets and expect no one to notice that WINNER and The 756Please respect copyright.PENANA1T3qKDRemn
Toxins are hanging out. Your fans will take pictures and that way, our 756Please respect copyright.PENANAB7dejwJZYV
managers will find out what's going on."756Please respect copyright.PENANAqYBzgWlux6
I smiled and checked the time again. It was close to five minutes. I looked up at TOP.756Please respect copyright.PENANAjXGEIrMLds
"I'm not going to hide to the whole world that we are hanging out with WINNER," I answered.756Please respect copyright.PENANA0y3dQhlfcF
"Huh?" TOP and the rest of my team turned to look at me with confused looks on their faces.756Please respect copyright.PENANAM8sROfknT6
"What the heck do you mean?" Mike asked. "We're going to get into so much trouble."756Please respect copyright.PENANASWdhlkCCAc
"I know," I looked at the time. "Let's go. And act natural."756Please respect copyright.PENANAYMZQSijIUI
"Wait...Sam," TOP called out to me, but I had already turned around the corner, walking into the lobby.756Please respect copyright.PENANAq6XejkLjAo
The others quickly 756Please respect copyright.PENANAgM6S8dayVZ
followed behind me and their way of acting natural was so surreal, as 756Please respect copyright.PENANAsDo3HVussQ
they entered the lobby laughing as if someone had just cracked a joke. 756Please respect copyright.PENANA3icDBTw2WC
That caught the receptionist's attention that I had to look behind me 756Please respect copyright.PENANAtfVm8b1Yfh
worried that they might have hit their heads.756Please respect copyright.PENANAXqL6RvWLM1
"Are you all okay?" I asked as I stopped and looked at them.756Please respect copyright.PENANAwCCVCTq1gl
"Of course we are," said Zoey a little too loud, it was annoying. "Mike just cracked a funny joke."756Please respect copyright.PENANAZbbtTy6WVB
"I cracked a funny joke?" Mike whispered, looking pretty confused.756Please respect copyright.PENANAhVNLs1rfO1
"Zoey doesn't even consider you funny," said Daniel as he smiled.756Please respect copyright.PENANA4zCNO9vsCj
"Now that's funny," said Christine as she also smiled.756Please respect copyright.PENANAJumowhP18g
"Not to me," I said as I rolled my eyes. "Can we just go?"756Please respect copyright.PENANA1NFFGlzh7I
As soon as I turned 756Please respect copyright.PENANAH5JLiONSqU
around to continue heading out the main doors, the elevator doors to the756Please respect copyright.PENANAnXbl5wnvB9
the side of the lobby soon flew open and for a moment, I paused as I 756Please respect copyright.PENANAvPLVA3JFDo
thought it was Yang Hyun-suk with his Chinese visitors. Even the others 756Please respect copyright.PENANAYswtWMc0jd
behind me paused ready for the worst.756Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5IksJxzDI
When the people in the elevator stepped out, the world before me stood still and I felt like dropping to the floor.756Please respect copyright.PENANA45MyClf40I
My brother Mike who stood beside me had his mouth wide open and said, "OMG, it's them."756Please respect copyright.PENANAmdj1nOdj9B
"Well, this day just got756Please respect copyright.PENANAGCIIaWbDGo
a whole lot worse," said TOP and he didn't sound too enthusiastic about756Please respect copyright.PENANAw2oCLXOk4j
it. I couldn't blame him for that.756Please respect copyright.PENANAQPVRagLMGP
Coming out of the 756Please respect copyright.PENANA84DNz3gUGh
elevator was none other than YG's own female k-pop group, Black Pink. 756Please respect copyright.PENANAD9jlnhpCtB
And when they saw us standing there like statues, they also stopped on 756Please respect copyright.PENANAWdMVjgTFNs
their tracks and they were also as surprised as we were.756Please respect copyright.PENANArxeOXtmTZj
I felt like I had stood 756Please respect copyright.PENANAE23la1kpSk
still forever that my feet hurt. Zoey who stood on my other side, nudged756Please respect copyright.PENANAJvwLsJWHfN
me on the shoulder to get my attention.756Please respect copyright.PENANAI7SMMIBHMT
"Sam? Is it me or did our day just get a whole lot complicated?" she asked, her eyes fixed on Black Pink.756Please respect copyright.PENANAq9UXAA8ocV
I gulped and nodded my head. "Yep," I replied.756Please respect copyright.PENANAgZryB2MvWY
