I poured myself a cup of orange juice as I looked at Christine who sat across from me at the table, having a bite of her toast. I looked at her and realised that she seemed more vibrant today. Was it because of the extra sleep we had yesterday?778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6MAhaAFLH
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9E7lyxJcRO
I heard footsteps coming into the lounge and I turned to see Zoey approaching the table.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkOTpviNJA
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKm3xYLhjq9
"Morning, girls," she said as she drew out a chair next to mine and sat down with a bright smile on her face.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PEed36WDs
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU44aodMvwv
"Morning," Christine and I answered at the same time.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0p7N2ZEcBX
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtfxzuxR7c
"You ladies look very bright this morning," she said as she took a plate and placed it in front of her.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHCsRiBFET
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqwuTX4IU8
"So do you," said Christine as she took another bite out of her french toast.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXMC3F7C3M
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySs7v88nwd
"I guess the sleep we had really worked wonders," I said.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GJXTjg9fH
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKSqbg7IiW
"Really?" Zoey asked as she looked at me and held her cheeks with her fingers as though she was massaging them. "Do I look like extra extra pretty?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UuL84dXr3
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1edB2z5cRT
I smiled at her. "You've always looked pretty, Zoey."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyXObfmM3Y
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZN0oqmKDA
"Morning, people," said Mike as both him and Daniel appeared and came straight for the table.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKATooq6FD7
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXY2dIhOx7F
"Morning," we answered him. I gave Daniel, a bright smile. He smiled back.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8FzRT4ogf
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEikQu5TtS
"What's with Zoey feeling like she's all pretty?" Mike asked as he took a seat right next to Christine and Daniel sat right next to Zoey.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9kKCp3fZx
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7ZQpgUOvZ
"Can't you see that I'm glowing?" Zoey asked as she beamed at Mike. "Sam says the extra sleep we had must have helped."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtN7eVPQYDZ
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsr1X8zRjyt
"Enough sleep is good for the body," said Daniel as he took the jug of orange juice.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVnBD90Zml
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPh5s0Y91x
"Are we going to meet with the others today and finish up on the song?" Mike asked as he looked at me.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFseRVTzsAD
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlO2FoYkeL
"I haven't communicated with either of the two groups yet," I said.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2S5fadrXTI
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5SpFMPwST
"Mmm..., funny," said Zoey as she lifted her toast and looked at it like she was observing it. "I haven't been on my phone since last night."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaz78MRsu5
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cTXUWzn2v
"Really, that's all you can think about?" Christine asked.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKmHMPgNiu
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblm09YzXDF
"Well..., I guess we were all tired and needed a break. Besides, last night was quite fun."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJerPRelzl
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDU9OHXeg72
"Tell me about it," said Daniel as he held a slice of toast and took a bite.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEp3KguZlK7
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABJuso408G
After we went to catch up on sleep yesterday afternoon, we woke up around 7PM and we all met in the lounge where we ended up playing board games with Lee. Before supper, Collins arrived and joined in on the fun and we told him about our progress on the new song. After supper, we all sat down to watch the Korean drama series, "Boys Over Flowers." We went to bed an hour early before our usual bedtime.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDeralTeT5
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJF9dH27l6
"We should have more sleeping hours, don't you think?" Mike asked.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBOECvMGab
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdCrQZUtqw
"With what we are working on right now, I doubt it," I said. "Maybe after we finally head back home."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdg712idJX1
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQHicI3bXO
"This album is going to kill us," said Zoey as she leaned her head back and looked up at the ceiling in frustration.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1xVslDikQ
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZsErAztld
"You have to check up on these guys and ask if we're going to meet," said Christine as she looked at me.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWOs3BWHRU
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0bkDLW76q
"After breakfast," I said. I took a sip of my juice.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9zXX3DtWS
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHR06sAPAv
As we continued to have our breakfast and talked about the snakes and ladders game we had yesterday, Lee and Collins came into the lounge. Lee was taking down something on her tablet while Collins talked to her, almost like he was giving her instructions. I couldn't hear what he was saying because he talked in a low tone and Zoey at the same time was the one talking at the table.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYw2ccG2gp
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWp0dtXhlQ
"All I am saying is," she said, "if Daniel wasn't so lucky, I would have won that game."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3qCc4g1FR
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHIo17a6FM
"Too bad you got eaten by the snake towards the end," said Daniel as he smiled at Zoey.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVRlHWRkbi
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwc8HEuX0X
"Sometimes I think you cheat."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqu0avp6wN
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpmBjuhYfj
"Cheating in snakes and ladders is almost impossible," said Christine as I saw her shrug her shoulders. "That's if you have the super power to row the dice to the number that's most suitable."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPdNbYFLGR
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfVcstzbBS
"Morning," said Collins as he and Lee came towards us. "I see Zoey still hasn't gotten over that snakes and ladders game."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzug813cHTt
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcCwoFXNxU
Zoey looked down at her empty plate, not daring to look up at Collins. "Not really," she said.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtTwqELfFH
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtIiRT8Q2b
"Will all of BTW be meeting today to continue working on the song?" Collins asked as he looked at me.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVD5Pnsb6iJ
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1KEVIYPgg
"I have to communicate with them and see if it's possible," I answered.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IwxqzMaPL
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEVBzykgDI
"Well, I sure hope so. I told Yang Hyun-suk that you already started. He wants to hear it tomorrow, so I really hope you do make progress."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2unVkyRd1Z
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9jL9DKzMQ
"I better go give them a call, then."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRVRqAoOG6
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJrPWPqwNU
I drew my chair back and left the table. I later found myself back in the room I shared with Zoey. I went straight for my phone that was beside the bed lamp. It felt like it had stayed there for a very long time because I barely touched it last night.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aOaDrs34B
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEx7KQ4Uyu4
I checked my lock screen and found no messages whatsoever. Maybe its because I hadn't turned the wifi on on my phone. After I unlocked it and switched on the wifi, notifications came flooding in almost at the same time most of them from social networks like Instagram and Twitter. I ignored them all as I went on my WhatsApp to check if there were any messages on the BTW chat group. But nothing.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiW45U4jII8
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtXTQW47NB
"Strange," I muttered to myself as I sat on my bed. I decided to leave a message, but that wasn't going to be enough.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNyLN3okft
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdikCxmHIX4
I decided to make a call to one of the BlackPink members. Jennie was the first member on my contact list so I called her.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpycvOda1K7
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lZMDZrEIF
I put my phone to my ear. Her phone rang but she wasn't picking up. I waited until the voicemail came up and I cut the call right away. Maybe she was still asleep or she wasn't so close to the phone. I called again and still her phone went straight to voicemail.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeXIjiSH0H
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiao2x2Xmp
I called Jisoo next, and just like Jennie's phone, it went straight to voicemail. Something didn't feel right. Why were they both not answering their phones?778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxlWewOZXr
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUsKz8HAMx
I went on ahead to call Seunghoon and this time, I prayed that his phone wasn't going to act like the others. Upon the third ring, he answered.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Idrqn9y5m
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpSz88ugCG
"Hello?" Seunghoon answered. He sounded sleepy.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rE6AtsYCF
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKrtEhLKbl
"Seunghoon? Hey, are you still asleep?" I asked.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjsH4FI6cr
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5HADCJkJC
"Sam?" he sounded surprised and more awake. "Oh, I didn't notice it was you."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bAsL8yn9b
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vPzayOBAI
"Are you guys coming to meet us here at the hotel? We have a song to work on, remember?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPKOj4Y9pZ
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM80BsK934Q
"Oh, oh, ya, we do..., ummm, eish.....," I heard him mutter something in Korean. "You said we can meet either today or tomorrow, right?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBhyP3Ki5W
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDXU6na3hz
"Umm...," I raised an eyebrow. Something was definitely not right at the moment. "Yes, I did. That's why I called to see if you guys are up it."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWO4yhtk06
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVknKejwYww
"Oh, umm, let me ask if these guys are up for it." I heard movement, like someone was pushing away the sheets to try and get out of bed. "I'll call you right back."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjZWYvdATs
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvJ31HMvbt
"Ya, sure."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIPAnCsBlX
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNY7LwjrLam
Seunghoon cut the call and I couldn't help but wonder. Maybe the others weren't up for meeting today. It was for the best to have it cancelled.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLQQMqnHPY
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0MrZIrdHm
The door to the room flew open and Zoey came in.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCNmhzmKDm
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8Hm0a4yKy
"Anything?" Zoey asked.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWZ4i7IWy9
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YKrLNYkkQ
"Couldn't reach Jennie or Jisoo," I answered. "But I did reach Seunghoon and he will get back to me as soon as he talks to the others."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYfUUiLDNf
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInQMTiXCv2
"Okay, well, we can wait."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUQraKinTM
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LiAUKUt7W
"Maybe we should cancel and meet tomorrow. Seunghoon was still asleep when I called."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKYxbYyclw
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yVU1LZVIX
"We could, but Yang Hyun-suk wants to hear the song tomorrow."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqfU270TBH
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhNuQnTdZi
"We can tell Collins to tell him that he will have to wait a little longer."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbPo6sClyD
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1ioutxJyf
"Geez, this is Yang Hyun-suk we're talking about. He wouldn't like taking orders from a missy like you."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Q5ykNSrzz
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eukmLWwWj
I shrugged my shoulders. "It's just a suggestion, not an order."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSCwVLA2uQ
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ePzL1uJwk
"Ooh, you know what I mean," she said irritatingly.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKXxNYravl
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuZeLtaU6u
"We can't work on the song without them."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsveMgJJ0xA
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIaW1868Ef
"True, but you started to work on the song way before we all met yesterday. You're a good songwriter after all."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABZvikHk5m
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0x1PJrW6XI
"I hope we won't have to write the songs of the entire album ourselves. We will need to bring out some songwriters. We don't really have much time."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6icHISFowN
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtvTOYj1G6
"Huh, funny. Collins was talking about it with Lee just now. You two seem to think alike."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAK5UOv1gC
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOhoeG7Usf
"Yay, we will be working on one song," I said with less enthusiasm.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5t06PejUY
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡod0PA1cIsu
"Then get your guitar and notebook."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9G9SFPo1Q
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hmCZPOh5B
"May you help me with my guitar?" I asked. "It's in the closet."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNHCAxIKzX
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIWBraDKfH
"Really? Why do I get to carry the heavy stuff for you?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkHgl5aM8c
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9CJOCEk8F
"I never let you carry any of my heavy stuff. And besides, the guitar isn't so heavy."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyh2E0X2FFM
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFiO00EvAi
"Whatever," Zoey rolled her eyes at me as she went to the closet to get it. I stretched out over my bed to get my notebook in one of the drawers on the other side of the bed.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwVg3Zby1T
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzelXq4FR7
Zoey and I soon left the room, Zoey with my guitar and me, with my phone and notebook. I expected Seunghoon to have called back by now but he hadn't. Strange.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmT3pSBnG7Z
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdN2yfjb3gJ
"Aah, it's good to see that you are much more serious than I thought about the song," said Collins as we entered the lounge.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pQ0Z9wOgS
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ay0coJucP
"Of course we are," said Zoey as she smiled at Collins seated in the lounge. My brothers and Christine weren't by the dining table.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgZF2HY2G0
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xxylCHs6W
"And what about the others?" Lee asked. She was standing right in front of us with the tablet still in her hands. "Are they going to make it?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFESs3FlhW
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjP8S0sSp4w
"Am yet to receive a reply," I answered.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi58xyGeXuY
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqX9ORVidIZ
"I hope all goes to plan," said Collins as he stood up. "Yang Hyun-suk is really looking forward to hearing the song."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7O7Pw52wX
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNznk0R0NeG
I gulped. Something told me it was best if the managers heard the song another day.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DK6LbehBc
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQmjBCkgmt
"I actually think we need a little more time," I said to Collins.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyHXKzEZlT
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXZVovGBcy
"Really?" he raised his eyebrow at me.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDEIn33qEZ
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65pU7WOF75
I felt Zoey look at me. She knew what I was doing. I had no other choice but to stall.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3f6APN1ei
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqh1beMt6QZ
"Yes, really," I answered.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYeXucuzCn
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ant1PmipH
"Whatever reason you have, fine. But you will have to finish the song because tomorrow we will meet other songwriters and composers for the album. But we will still need that song from you."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyyGretaXZ
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTs3mki5Nq
I nodded my head. "It will be a great song, trust me."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOYrZpnzf1
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TnnRi2uPV
Collins smiled at Zoey and I, then left the lounge heading for the elevator. It looked like he was going out as always.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmF5M7Atid6
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHZCvkPDHz
"Well, that went well," said Zoey after we were sure that Collins had gone.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9yk0DFmYb
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvo8uD267h
"What went well?" Lee asked.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALch9LUaX8
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡattXxjhV4d
"Nothing, nothing," said Zoey as she went ahead to put the guitar on the nearest couch and smiled at Lee.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjnAI7VZkl
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GZIO4ICzr
I knew Lee was going to stare at me to get an answer, so, I avoided her gaze by looking at my phone. Still nothing from Seunghoon. I debated on whether to give him another call.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpKmAlnaeF
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2CISutD7y
I heard one of the doors open and shut in the hall followed by Christine's voice singing to a song by Maroon 5: "She will be loved" until she entered the lounge.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuKcGERWmJ
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yd7qsOK7o
"Any news from the others yet?" she asked as she stood beside me.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkvbHp0ZjF
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznzmwSaJNM
I shook my head. "I can't reach BlackPink and Seunghoon said he would inform me soon if he and the rest are going to make it."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9j7uK5nQhX
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVjjG6dJht
"Bummer," she said as she went over to sit on the couch. Zoey soon joined her.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejeycYOusH
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡraHwmm1cbh
"Now I see why you don't want the managers hearing the song tomorrow," said Lee. "You're not sure if these guys are going to show."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWm4Gnp0rL
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Q6Jo7zFTW
"I thought we agreed that we were all going to rest and then meet up," said Christine.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUfqVTfJ0j
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPOPhi7pQK
"The sad part was I suggested we meet either today or tomorrow," I said.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfgKPxSlmQ
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYD9SAGWHO
"I think I was the one who suggested that," said Lee as she winced.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikN2mxhfnk
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeDbOlkQHG
"Judging by Sam's phone that should have rang minutes ago, we're likely to meet tomorrow," said Zoey.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPy0krSx8u
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDfxA1SYFz
She was right. I looked at my phone and I felt like I should have just left it behind in my room. Seunghoon might call to tell me that they weren't going to make it. Jisoo or Jennie would find my missed calls and call me back to say the same thing.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3EpqsU0Ek
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zZP6htb9J
"Ya, you're right," I said as I slumped my shoulders and lowered my phone. I sighed.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2ivTiMi4B
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcRKdWvSMK
"If these guys are taking a day off, don't you think we should as well?" Zoey asked.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejP0pf3jVB
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8oCMfTBCY
"No!" Christine, Lee and I said at the same time.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3YUuCPSoF
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDDrP94Awp
Zoey's face was one filled with disappointment. "I really wanted to go shopping."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXCYRHcaKY
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHNATQZ8uE
"If they won't come, we will work on the song ourselves," I said. "I'll just text them-"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVsaRAVo9a
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPRgrIPDqV
The phone beeps in my hand. I looked at it and I found a message from Seunghoon. I read the message saying that they won't be able to make it. I texted back and told him we would meet tomorrow.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qQddBoI2J
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvzrTHAAaP
After pressing the send button, Lee asked, "was that Seunghoon?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8H3bxHPSKO
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJIiJCTLhk
"Yep, and he said they aren't going to make it."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCS2XQN7AXs
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCPsjoVBog
"Well, you saw this coming," said Zoey.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hpGWfEHu5
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRB4GXapL6J
"And you did well to stall the managers," said Lee. "That will give you some breathing space."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcl1hapDvFH
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5bxS7gTGv
"We better start working on the song," I said as I went over to the couch where my guitar lay and lifted it to create space to sit. "Where are Mike and Daniel?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24ulIhYBOf
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPdy3jrSGX
"I can go call them, they are in their room," said Lee.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTlhc8stmk
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABd66GRZCs
She didn't even have to leave the lounge as Mike and Daniel soon appeared.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QGPd2Mocn
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxcNOC8qyt
"We're working on the song already?" Daniel asked. "Aren't we waiting for the others?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyS0UBuXrp
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75qF7c7qcC
"They won't make it today," said Zoey as I sat down.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhb5Xxlr2wN
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9AZtL8POHv
"Mmm..., how come?" Mike asked, sounding puzzled.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4EB8BLunr
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WcAjJfZq0
"They wouldn't say, just that they can't make it, at least that's what Seunghoon told me on behalf of WINNER," I said. "I'm yet to hear from BlackPink."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡma13YuztQU
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Lv30tWhVc
"Bummer," said Daniel as he came to sit right beside me.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbghYV8oMkq
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AaYAvpt7B
"Not to worry, we can still make progress without them. Shall we begin?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkeHVBPwz5
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3fL9JMrQN
Mike sat opposite Daniel and I. We first did a recap of the song and continued working on the first verse since that was where we left off. Without the others it was kind of difficult since Mino and Seungyoon came up with great lyrics for the first verse. We had to go with the flow though and it didn't seem so bad.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxupIG7EDj

We were still on the first verse, checking out sentences and debating whether one word sounded better than the other when my phone rang. It laid on the armrest of the couch. I checked who was calling and rolled my eyes.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGc7R2eSUW
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAf9IGq8f4K
"Who's calling, Sam?" Daniel asked.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBKgxsYMkq
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYh6cn4IKdv
"I'll tell you," said Zoey, "it's G-Dragon. If it's not, then it's probably someone who's just as annoying as he is."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPNhKZGR05
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcW8svGrGa0
"It's him, alright," I said as I took the phone and picked up the call. "Hey, GD."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBH8v7EQuxc
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UxbsiIWhZ
"Hi, I'm in the elevator right now coming to your floor. I'll be there in like 30 seconds."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpi0kpZ3YyW
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8dSOXsINq
"Wait, you're....," the line went dead. I stared at the phone.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8beGOxEuyG
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEe32SJvfEw
"What is it?" Christine asked.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Rr94mdleA
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2JVkzSidd
We heard the sound of the elevator doors on our floor announcing the arrival of our visitor.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEvigGHlIE
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMXHo8C8rk
"He's here," I said.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVARuL9kg5
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxnLjynPYv
Lee who sat at the dining table, working, asked, "how come we were never informed at the reception of his arrival?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2eWhKwdsQ
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0yBdDPHS9
"It's because I told them not to," came G-Dragon as he appeared in the lounge.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljSkv8Bmcl
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUbaT3vfNc
We turned to look at him. Somehow, I wasn't surprised that he was here.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53fplRLamu
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzluwE7tGu
"Hello, everyone," he greeted as he came to where the five of us, sat.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCjEmDsI7x
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ldgnHfQvr
Four of us, including Lee, replied to his greeting except Zoey who said, "how come you're here?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Lb7lrQJ9P
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0srWZh5k6U
"What's wrong with me being here?" he asked as he shrugged his shoulders.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RnoaVa8S1
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3h9zj6aI3w
"For someone who went partying last night, you seem pretty sober."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4Nuq8Pn60
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreR8k038IL
"Oh.., how did the party go anyway?" Christine asked.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3tCyQgfN4
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYBGgwxpcc
"It was great," he said with a happy grin.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYsVpmRiqW
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2iMDd2uvO
"Zoey has a point, though," said Mike. "For someone who had a great time at the party, you seem pretty sober and...," he snapped his fingers as he tried to think of a word.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUi7lozG0MP
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDkie4SKOG
"Normal?" Daniel suggested. Though he was only joking.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJBSKuqY4l
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4X1H20Lcte
"Wait, you think I'm not normal?" G-Dragon asked. He almost looked offended.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGn1iuYgQt
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ezY5CnsWB
"Nah, that's not the word, Daniel," said Mike. "It doesn't matter anyway."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1osWqkFZ6
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLOBddQPMB
I looked over at Mike and he had a small smirk on his face that was almost unnoticeable to everyone else. I found Daniel also staring at his brother and then he looked at me. The two of us knew he meant what Daniel said.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdROLNDKdx5
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVHKrPf3J8
"We had a blast yesterday," said G-Dragon as he went over to join Mike on the couch. "I thought you checked the photos on Instagram."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RsF0gdQ3k
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndlrts2k6N
"Did you just say 'we?'" I asked as I raised my eyebrow at him.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWb6mkRTVDZ
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BtxwpmUz6
"What?" he asked as if he hadn't heard my question. I felt like he did.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgR67SI3zKE
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsG6JCKUS9X
"You said 'we.' Who else were you with?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4h02KFRnPJ
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRgA5yXmPW
"Oh.., just friends, very close..., very good friends," he answered as he nodded his head.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdYzwSi5w2
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9p5J80oR9z
"Okay," I said as I slowly nodded back. "I'm glad you had fun."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjQTP2WVqS
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEFK6Cadqb
"You guys should have come. It was amazing."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7juUJ5Dbi
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5Dj1Dq7kG
"Too late for that now, isn't it?" Christine asked.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjQnf6AJHU
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyAgPkiM7q
"Yep, too late. But you could still see the pics of how much fun we had."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LxrfuCCTa
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ShbRfBLFd
"I bet there was plenty of booze too," said Zoey.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcDl28eAYF
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8ZSdyEdrr
"Plenty," said G-Dragon with a smile.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUiOZKZ4AB
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJZDZMbLj0
I couldn't help but feel something strange with what G-Dragon said a few sentences ago. Maybe I was just imagining things. Any who....778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NvtMnMXPI
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4AKvDtzPp
"We can check the pics later," I said. "We have a song to write."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4Mlu0t9r4
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPj7IEqZcxK
"The others aren't here yet?" G-Dragon asked. "How can you work on the song without them?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7TeBaKUxb
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXI7pBOB5S
"Seunghoon called to tell me they weren't going to make it. I haven't heard anything from BlackPink but I doubt they will come, so I called off the meeting and we are working on it instead."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZBPSVfncb
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtQsXP3wlF
"Oh. I think that's fair considering that they must be tired from the party."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQJyvgndTf
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzmgMpax7M
I looked at G-Dragon, and so did the rest of the Toxins.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOlghNxm0p
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqShzzPOh3m
"They were with you at the party?" Daniel asked.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQklOkDgEHr
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmmJC3d3eX
"Huh....?" G-Dragon now looked like the confused one. "I thought you knew."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVF0YMIcwv
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLAc8g8ySE
"How would we know when we were resting yesterday and we were completely off social media?" Christine asked.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSuPI2G5CZ
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAZI8IOjHf
G-Dragon shrugged his shoulders. He left our floor early yesterday, so he had no idea that we all agreed to rest and continue working on the song later. Can't blame him for that.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmgLeNgW3G
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9H1yazD5ri
"You dragged them to the party, didn't you?" Zoey asked as she pointed a finger at him. "You're such a manipulator!"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SBIo6Akaz
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaySqJZUuL
"I didn't convince them, I swear," he said as he raised his hands in surrender. But then he looked at me and lowered them. "Okay..., maybe a little."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoX1xTFnNJ
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUOI6M3zWP
"I knew it!" Zoey said with a look on her face.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8OgYaScdY
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiBElwLdIM
"But ninety percent of the whole convincing thing was on the other guy."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtg9sqjuvvi
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMx4gi0f6S
"The other guy?" Mike asked as he raised his eyebrows.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFw99F0TCE
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2o911nxsWt
"Who's the other guy?" Christine asked.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTukkgDYqq
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2DKLGEjL2
I knew there was something fishy about G-Dragon's earlier statements. He didn't just go and party with "just" close friends.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdm96jRaW4j
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sqw6wTjzr
"Tell us," Zoey demanded when G-Dragon didn't speak.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBXUznJavA
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7osYT0AwJs
We looked at him as he also stared back at each one of us. The look in his eyes made me realise that he didn't want to talk for fear of what might happen next.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UWGf2yKwS
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZ2fUhnff0
"Looks like you lost your tongue, GD," said Daniel. "Please tell us who you were with. I don't think it's that much of a big deal."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Fc2X9MvfJ
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSLvcDxrao
G-Dragon squeezed his eyes shut in fright. And just like that, we knew it was a big deal.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8ImMfC9g3
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xGhtqG3FQ
"Goodness, just tell us, GD," I said. "We have a song to work on and you're just wasting our time."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndrSymFjaI
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLUYlATKMw
"It was a mistake coming here," said G-Dragon as he nervously stood up from the couch. "I better get going. Sorry for disturbing you."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNbgqlRvbh
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeu3YVrKqug
All five of us stood up and surrounded him. It was five against one and he knew he couldn't stand a chance. We came closer, making it tight for him to leave.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPmSeHUlGJ
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyMCREckBG
"GD, sit down, please," I instructed him and he did.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98aLP6WPM4
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmDByINI7r
"Now," said Zoey as she cracked her knuckles. "You're going to answer our questions. You don't want to receive these babies," she gestured to her fists, "on your face."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEN5ro8xFS
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidj6eMMI5I
"Okay, okay," G-Dragon surrendered. "I'll tell you."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYekQB3vDCw
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIT4SLLXzZw
"First question," said Christine with her arms folded. "Who were you with downstairs when you left our floor yesterday?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlb0x8WWjP
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1c6Y4eprE
G-Dragon gulped as he looked at us. "You won't like the answer I am about to give you. You will kill me before I even leave this place."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiE8RBCCE5Y
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFxrjVKyj8
"We will make sure to bury you in a lovely place, promise," said Mike. "Now, spill."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUy5GICXaa
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2dL5P1xc9
G-Dragon sat upright and cleared his throat. "When I came out of the elevator, I saw..., I saw this guy. He recognised me immediately and said he was a big fan..., and so....., we talked for a while. We got along well...., and then that's when the others came..."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKKQ7flX43
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdOpK39RHZ
"GD, we don't want to hear how you all met," I said, "we want a name. Who is the guy?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2djPQHG5cy
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItmgnCoFwE
"It's..., it's..., Johnny," said G-Dragon. He immediately looked down at the floor.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHibvotBdi
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrojgUPU0uM
"Johnny Jerkins!" the five of us said at the same time.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3Ou8Bjl8y
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68jzfBPAUy
"Yes," G-Dragon as he slowly nodded his head, still facing downwards.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08myJfp7Ol
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfv1LPdXSg
Zoey fell onto the couch next to G-Dragon like she was about to pass out, her hand on her forehead.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5mMb5qS7F
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAI3CJSyODw
"I can't believe it" she said.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoB6JgiXGa
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AzHQgDVCr
"That explains everything," I said, as I looked at a certain part of the wall above the couch, my mind far off.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknC8gj0fbw
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPE6GiTpzm
"No wonder they couldn't make it," said Daniel.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEq1XoNB1Fe
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdrHQIx0oM
"They didn't just go to the party, they were hanging out with Johnny," said Mike.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQ9zjlBRDG
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeADutD0YAd
"Ya...., you won't like what I am about to show you," said Lee behind us.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wtAHJQANF
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPH1ehGydGJ
We all turned to look at Lee as she approached with a tablet in her hands. She went to sit on the couch I had been sitting on with Daniel. I went to sit next to her, Christine on her other side. Mike and Daniel went over to stand at the back of the couch so as to see more clearly on the tablet.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQZNQI8gMa
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLzqoXutho
She was on Instagram and she had gone on one of G-Dragon's fan pages. One of the first photos we saw of last night was a picture of him and Johnny staring at the camera and smiling. They had hands over each other's shoulders like they were best buddies.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcOaZrsI4t
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIR5HbzadkI
It was definitely Johnny Jerkins alright. His white blonde hair cropped to the sides and a strand of it falling above his right blue eye. He was almost G-Dragon's height and he had on a white shirt and brown khaki shorts. I noticed their surrounding and I couldn't help but ask:778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IQMmrqAln
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5psrO8Bfz
"You guys had a party on a boat?" I looked at G-Dragon.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0nk8hnUSr
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19DZ8JaAkh
"What! A cruise party!" Zoey yelled as she sat up quickly. She looked like she had woken from her slumber as she went to stand alongside my two brothers.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEHVhjIpDn
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mHu4oDckt
Lee continued to scroll down the page and more pictures came up. This time, there were some of BlackPink and WINNER having a good time with Johnny and G-Dragon. There were other pictures with fans who wanted to take pics with the K-Pop superstars.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHHhodtYii
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypoIgx2D2q
"You guys had such a good time," said Zoey. "I wish I came."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4zp7M3SEz
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIIjjLLKn5
"You see, you guys should have tagged along," said G-Dragon.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfUJMZsDfy
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqanOeK12el
"And hang out with Johnny? Heck no!" Zoey detested.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjhid9k3Iq
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BncL8EAOH
"He seems pretty cool."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoix1PoKLG
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8SYMt3Sat
"That's because you only just met him," said Daniel.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvNh3wV5V1
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3lqE9faNH
"You won't be hanging out with him more often, will you?" Christine asked.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAH4KkZ0lnx
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcFWIDKeY9
"Nah," G-Dragon denied. "I guess all that was just a one time thing."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4L2DPwe60
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhrVcAk63C
"That's what they all say," said Zoey. I imagined her rolling her eyes when she said that.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrlHhkpBaz
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHWjJPlnsw
"And let's not forget, he's in this hotel," I said. "Avoiding him will be tricky."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEKgs9Thlo
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKwKTfNhwJ
"Don't you think maybe you guys are taking this thing a little too far?" G-Dragon asked.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbv93grdYdV
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoNKReYb5q
"What thing?" Christine asked. Her eyes were still fixed on the tablet as Lee continued to scroll.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxYb3C79zF
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQDPF7j8OX
"This 'Johnny' thing?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiF0voU1ts
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4fA1f964b
I looked up from the tablet at G-Dragon and I knew I wasn't the only one.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtY1XRNMwJ
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHL8NB0rJb
"Why would we?" I asked.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyuDy2P9MP
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzZYrMWFpP
"You talk about him as if he's your worst enemy."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcFOQw9GEh
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezgQGB5znw
"Look, we don't hate people, well, maybe some," said Mike. "It's just that some people aren't worth hanging out with."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpM7nR0Ft6
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFipRIJcwOh
"Because of his actions back at school? Please, that was a long time ago."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjZasbLW5Y
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdiG8iuov4O
"You're right," said Zoey. "It was a long time ago, but we would rather keep our distance. Some people are just toxic, you know?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTGDRVh3KR
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkvnpYeMsa
"How ironic," said G-Dragon as he stood up from the couch.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl51FRtFo7a
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlslM2IdDAs
"Leaving already?" Lee asked.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAVqlug75F
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5lvsImfIS
"Ya, I really should. Just came to check up on the progress with the song."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVAh6qETE1
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmtdIdG2A5
G-Dragon didn't seem like himself. I looked at him and this time I didn't give him a criticising look like I always do. I could tell he was upset if not sad.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYQFZDmPZk
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnMQThej2I
"I'll escort you to the elevator," I said as I stood up from the couch.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyA5ENkpDc
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNaDxg2Zyc
"Ok," he said and he turned to address the others, "I'll see you guys later."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuB0w5tP34G
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOv7NJVT8YA
"Bye, GD," the rest replied at the same time. Their tone sounded low almost as if they didn't want to upset him any further.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiOAPzhAMR
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QvFgIzyBo
G-Dragon made his way out of the lounge and I was right behind him.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcrCCE0nTE
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rPfKeqZaU
"Well, you seem upset," I said to him when we were in the hall.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJVJxNRjdi
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKl338fwFVi
"No, I'm not," he said as he shrugged his shoulders.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkqpVuNkK0
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mC4BGYcLP
I held his shoulder and he stopped walking, his back still facing me.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxC7JBxKmh
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9pS0etT0i
"I know when you're upset," I said as I dropped my hand. "I think the others know too."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoNK8hQBbn
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEePDAKV6l
He turned around to look at me. "I don't get you guys at all," he said.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJ7mJxEOpJ
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlE1uFeTNo2
"What do you mean?" I folded my arms.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zgLyrwCyv
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaShJouPzVW
"I mean, you guys are the nicest and coolest people I have ever met and I never thought you would be so spiteful about someone. You weren't all like this when you were dealing with Jehan...., well, maybe Zoey, but even she wasn't so extreme."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXImZUFizL
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhELkE5BTan
"We aren't perfect, you know? We have our emotions too, whether good or bad."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8ODLjUFDM
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfLsMa1c7o
"But why hate on Johnny so much?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FSXm7EPBf
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7JNzMpInH
I shook my head. "We don't hate him. We do hate what he did to us in the past, but we don't actually hate him."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAlId8ftHU
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEd9kWTxr7
"Really?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPACiIEIQn
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfhSu08sOu
"If we really did, we would have called him worse names than 'jerk' now, wouldn't we?"778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqynMYphImh
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VtUTkMxUX
G-Dragon bit his lip and he didn't have to admit I was right. "Then why can't you come to peace with him?" he asked. "You don't even want to cross paths with him, like ever."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZxplT8NFu
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAQ2BxCXIB
I sighed as I dropped my arms. "Some people aren't worth mingling around with, Jiyong."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhJeEPp9f3
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUYs3rb1V1
"Is there something you aren't telling me?" He raised his eyebrow at me and took a step closer.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCG9qQ5m9p1
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0q92fmwE1u
I shrugged my shoulders. "Kind of," I answered. "You're yet to know everything in due time."778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pi3M8SwXj
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYGiiHkgSp
G-Dragon slowly nodded his head. I could tell that he understood and is willing to wait. But for how long is the million dollar question.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUe1oQo6Gce
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnsUaygUeC
"Okay, I'll see you around, then," said G-Dragon as he managed to smile.778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSd9Xb3Altr
778Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKS8C7jZNgN
