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?346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLq2YvoukO2
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwebpaO6Qgh
I heard footsteps coming into the lounge and I turned to see Zoey approaching the table.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxD1wvaGOe
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31R6CVwk3S
"Morning, girls," she said as she drew out a chair next to mine and sat down with a bright smile on her face.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDtYL9FWCW
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuXsA0ahK0
"Morning," Christine and I answered at the same time.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7nqYAcVN3
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP26HPxQpvK
"You ladies look very bright this morning," she said as she took a plate and placed it in front of her.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcsLNFSeYa
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyKGeYXzBv
"So do you," said Christine as she took another bite out of her french toast.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPvYipRff9
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD42xa0fShv
"I guess the sleep we had really worked wonders," I said.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJr2zOBVsp
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurFzyc4X4Z
"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?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQYW8qwCeE
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVF1NcMBTSj
I smiled at her. "You've always looked pretty, Zoey."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVPSL7tdk5
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBTIvTyCxP
"Morning, people," said Mike as both him and Daniel appeared and came straight for the table.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uRRZtPknx
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLpqsjs7Ng
"Morning," we answered him. I gave Daniel, a bright smile. He smiled back.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXr1KsbL6CM
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsWWCpEXye
"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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeljuiAvAyi
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLUC5RQ3Hg
"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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIT2WBG1TN
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmEUwgN7Vg
"Enough sleep is good for the body," said Daniel as he took the jug of orange juice.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JuruPNQ9B
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4YcIuVKHM
"Are we going to meet with the others today and finish up on the song?" Mike asked as he looked at me.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQJPXqd2wQ
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6dDO5SmYf
"I haven't communicated with either of the two groups yet," I said.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWN3cBdSC6
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtq0cojQT2O
"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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqoWlKsVbn
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoL8b1J5egU
"Really, that's all you can think about?" Christine asked.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmywQ9ouqL
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhIfZMi5SA
"Well..., I guess we were all tired and needed a break. Besides, last night was quite fun."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MWhCYm7V9
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJLVgrFxoy
"Tell me about it," said Daniel as he held a slice of toast and took a bite.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxn1UAP7Mz
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolYuOsMqHS
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQksVW3adPH
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtWCy1K78g
"We should have more sleeping hours, don't you think?" Mike asked.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiKLASnT4Q
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7ot0D7fcM
"With what we are working on right now, I doubt it," I said. "Maybe after we finally head back home."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiswSaFTxZ
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegmVSqnldd
"This album is going to kill us," said Zoey as she leaned her head back and looked up at the ceiling in frustration.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwShoZZXbFj
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebcQaODSws
"You have to check up on these guys and ask if we're going to meet," said Christine as she looked at me.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71OHmWNqgB
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvk2HTYzJ0p
"After breakfast," I said. I took a sip of my juice.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9vaNjVgvj
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyUJBajw8f
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKfVqi6DH6
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4r71EhLfO
"All I am saying is," she said, "if Daniel wasn't so lucky, I would have won that game."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOV83UGCab
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiAGk4ah47
"Too bad you got eaten by the snake towards the end," said Daniel as he smiled at Zoey.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXccuguzyT2
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLthMQzb6nh
"Sometimes I think you cheat."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoWysslhaW
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIecTpdEEfE
"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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpQNLzTli5
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVgWWOmmlg
"Morning," said Collins as he and Lee came towards us. "I see Zoey still hasn't gotten over that snakes and ladders game."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMl8TdMSWT
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFHsKG3iWo
Zoey looked down at her empty plate, not daring to look up at Collins. "Not really," she said.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYcSxtC63h
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhKfsenhKy
"Will all of BTW be meeting today to continue working on the song?" Collins asked as he looked at me.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPW6GrbreCA
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2Fu0XH3q6
"I have to communicate with them and see if it's possible," I answered.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIfYkNHg8C
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwJzU6VyZn
"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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMwmXCDvM0
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qfosiEXlr
"I better go give them a call, then."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYp9SL9sc3
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNpDHtB0nw
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscMWk6ZAjV
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyM3J7vwg1L
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnU28uoySiK
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnWI2f5zu7
"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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzp69Vl4wj
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuY1aV53B0D
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLY1SWpIUli
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGACXvQU9qL
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ax46Z2flb
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qlSo1424b
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?346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9Ln2vQ8xO
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxt11URd5U3
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpWUv29wH3
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkcjCNB4Ft
"Hello?" Seunghoon answered. He sounded sleepy.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO06JnQ6kSS
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskZs1Jo6IT
"Seunghoon? Hey, are you still asleep?" I asked.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1sl0Sh1w3
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQux0Xxd4Hl
"Sam?" he sounded surprised and more awake. "Oh, I didn't notice it was you."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUkh5Jh2nj
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcHIDIHTRm
"Are you guys coming to meet us here at the hotel? We have a song to work on, remember?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Hi8uE2YjY
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIU99NiORh6
"Oh, oh, ya, we do..., ummm, eish.....," I heard him mutter something in Korean. "You said we can meet either today or tomorrow, right?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WVzU8pmOX
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCAuMGfHzc
"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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjiXVtUXmt
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpOk134PYM
"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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5jFCl7qDi
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSrPUn29bc
"Ya, sure."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9n65Izorlu
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJM143usLJC
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWxUPQfypZ
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufw2cFCvNR
The door to the room flew open and Zoey came in.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbOIWVHmH3
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUK5JB72aj
"Anything?" Zoey asked.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3uhszGCju
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErpp7iSQoQ
"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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6wfScXsk3
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIvZP70Amp
"Okay, well, we can wait."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKaqqeBsDC8
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZHauAfvGt
"Maybe we should cancel and meet tomorrow. Seunghoon was still asleep when I called."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFH2CjiQy5
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl77equbgLN
"We could, but Yang Hyun-suk wants to hear the song tomorrow."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtvLOtLSvJ
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKbLVR1EZd
"We can tell Collins to tell him that he will have to wait a little longer."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1d9971feJ
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUziXTuiDh
"Geez, this is Yang Hyun-suk we're talking about. He wouldn't like taking orders from a missy like you."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxtv6aF2yj
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYC0KKb4Yp
I shrugged my shoulders. "It's just a suggestion, not an order."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsw01SEjJq
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qsgatwt4C
"Ooh, you know what I mean," she said irritatingly.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ubk5D7g0K
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55hmXDmzmf
"We can't work on the song without them."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExLcdJvxC2
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08HJYdJMLb
"True, but you started to work on the song way before we all met yesterday. You're a good songwriter after all."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6Suo6MQRo
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TlIOLu3ZR
"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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwifj7efKT
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwPAPZR0g0
"Huh, funny. Collins was talking about it with Lee just now. You two seem to think alike."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJP4Zn4R4Ux
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ISTIBUO4q
"Yay, we will be working on one song," I said with less enthusiasm.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtF5xHXtuB3
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZtWeBZ7oz
"Then get your guitar and notebook."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfMFw1fjAe
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdmtjaMu15
"May you help me with my guitar?" I asked. "It's in the closet."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOhQKdij40
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe22xmFOveA
"Really? Why do I get to carry the heavy stuff for you?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8dVUuj5rX
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYTw2PdZ5x
"I never let you carry any of my heavy stuff. And besides, the guitar isn't so heavy."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUICD2iPRo
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdGTVOlj7p
"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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFmdkgztA2
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0oKLll6E4
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6e5mIqX2eG
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ODx24px3P
"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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDZ8iTPkga
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xqT9g8CWq
"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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGUS1hQ2ny
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIS9n5WoGGO
"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?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZjcnWKsZp
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kOWFXHXfz
"Am yet to receive a reply," I answered.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9QPkFLpXS
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IWQLPRuld
"I hope all goes to plan," said Collins as he stood up. "Yang Hyun-suk is really looking forward to hearing the song."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFJoYUhAQO
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcq9boKaPDl
I gulped. Something told me it was best if the managers heard the song another day.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVmuEvtuka
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaA4oUTmdP
"I actually think we need a little more time," I said to Collins.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjmBxyXAuE
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtNnUsI2kT
"Really?" he raised his eyebrow at me.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFcvzeChVp
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcTwmpgrr6
I felt Zoey look at me. She knew what I was doing. I had no other choice but to stall.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTABI4AYlI2
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5QoL1cQuj
"Yes, really," I answered.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpXYkxcQ0P
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxUUAZihI7
"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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZEjRI6U28
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEjPCkcEtw
I nodded my head. "It will be a great song, trust me."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kyuy5vyTw
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRu0QX2JriO
Collins smiled at Zoey and I, then left the lounge heading for the elevator. It looked like he was going out as always.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyFnXDFrfR
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxytz0JLKA0
"Well, that went well," said Zoey after we were sure that Collins had gone.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVk8h7fzIf4
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvfsWwHiKf
"What went well?" Lee asked.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXYZTXuy8A
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcQXbNFMO4
"Nothing, nothing," said Zoey as she went ahead to put the guitar on the nearest couch and smiled at Lee.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzc0cO8Pze
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI02Lj9qg7p
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL70Zzsh6iL
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSoH0JXvM8
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡParwH5Taza
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JHygSMp6T
"Any news from the others yet?" she asked as she stood beside me.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAg5eIjl9V
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6b4MUSAwW
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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4bE1LzmM7
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MCUaV6YjD
"Bummer," she said as she went over to sit on the couch. Zoey soon joined her.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodS4eFmmwg
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4NyYJLtTk
"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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LEY49uyq8
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQmMweLbGz
"I thought we agreed that we were all going to rest and then meet up," said Christine.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZUqDyXAk5
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9hTbKGqK6
"The sad part was I suggested we meet either today or tomorrow," I said.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5EL3fXQtJ
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKf1yjOUEfS
"I think I was the one who suggested that," said Lee as she winced.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiq0WPbK50
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTOSWKKlyv
"Judging by Sam's phone that should have rang minutes ago, we're likely to meet tomorrow," said Zoey.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNQRbYE0PE
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81novXEgT1
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNX6PYKgPEk
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Cp7qFvJML
"Ya, you're right," I said as I slumped my shoulders and lowered my phone. I sighed.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGTN43Ce30
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6xxLBFnzK
"If these guys are taking a day off, don't you think we should as well?" Zoey asked.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzGviGZcPM
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbxHdIXu5M
"No!" Christine, Lee and I said at the same time.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpqZV6Bbhp
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCNs5f3Duw
Zoey's face was one filled with disappointment. "I really wanted to go shopping."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExVlEMV8vi
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ50zTrRFkn
"If they won't come, we will work on the song ourselves," I said. "I'll just text them-"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgFXVErf3G
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZLcfVhpll
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0w0H8Tcb1Z
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXblpgVqqTY
After pressing the send button, Lee asked, "was that Seunghoon?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhk6BOlP74K
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyFzB7oU2O
"Yep, and he said they aren't going to make it."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIyQz3OyuI
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjisu3KQykN
"Well, you saw this coming," said Zoey.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOl2RB948z
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7d0GlUz9kP
"And you did well to stall the managers," said Lee. "That will give you some breathing space."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySDu3MVihn
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6ceZ8gv8l
"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?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VJ5SBxw1w
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezZuds9UwM
"I can go call them, they are in their room," said Lee.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbkFES7wsM
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iua7uLxRi
She didn't even have to leave the lounge as Mike and Daniel soon appeared.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TPHiJH6BN
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2ONhdhqGi
"We're working on the song already?" Daniel asked. "Aren't we waiting for the others?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRDqoIgWG2
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaBhFLsuIU
"They won't make it today," said Zoey as I sat down.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ212Dlv9kb2
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlExFrmwOl7
"Mmm..., how come?" Mike asked, sounding puzzled.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyyh8USCzV
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbCvGOGQmt
"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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PBHUjHAXm
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3uZgzS1Lf
"Bummer," said Daniel as he came to sit right beside me.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQitomr2kQb
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDywZ2W7fz
"Not to worry, we can still make progress without them. Shall we begin?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwq0jVRYUZ9
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhjPoJWb8L
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZq4JoqFAYm

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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSAY0KqvOj
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiGwAMp0MG
"Who's calling, Sam?" Daniel asked.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBCszwDEXV
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYTj2uCRLw
"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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46VFbq9EaP
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHx1PniM3gk
"It's him, alright," I said as I took the phone and picked up the call. "Hey, GD."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEEFcZcUW2
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtSULVcArZ
"Hi, I'm in the elevator right now coming to your floor. I'll be there in like 30 seconds."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgmA2PRR0p
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fUIWZIbjl
"Wait, you're....," the line went dead. I stared at the phone.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdFPAC1fN7
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwi0wHSyuDr
"What is it?" Christine asked.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOWtFZX1AE
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAu8D8XDLoV
We heard the sound of the elevator doors on our floor announcing the arrival of our visitor.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBj6PGSf9F
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3wi5a31pf
"He's here," I said.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwrEbcPm4g
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn49IdLlgej
Lee who sat at the dining table, working, asked, "how come we were never informed at the reception of his arrival?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRzqzN4Ufu
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxkQ3XEnyM
"It's because I told them not to," came G-Dragon as he appeared in the lounge.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCjWcEIlBK
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGRe7cbTyu
We turned to look at him. Somehow, I wasn't surprised that he was here.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXpf8zg04x
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmV61bcHiVU
"Hello, everyone," he greeted as he came to where the five of us, sat.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvPY7iBlVD
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMp5QDxdjGf
Four of us, including Lee, replied to his greeting except Zoey who said, "how come you're here?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZwN9Rbq0G
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOv53OjhE5
"What's wrong with me being here?" he asked as he shrugged his shoulders.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrnhZ6VSsE
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6R261e8T5Y
"For someone who went partying last night, you seem pretty sober."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxt4XlXhWe
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8StgOku8T9
"Oh.., how did the party go anyway?" Christine asked.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmzeCBOmg1
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡookBRMqZX3
"It was great," he said with a happy grin.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbL01VTnxOv
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Klf5SPfTG
"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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAkLWDinYH
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqYPbmLqhM
"Normal?" Daniel suggested. Though he was only joking.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrK0XSlX4C
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4kwq7Hex7
"Wait, you think I'm not normal?" G-Dragon asked. He almost looked offended.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAGRoPYBmR
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LWUlh0HXe
"Nah, that's not the word, Daniel," said Mike. "It doesn't matter anyway."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpGno9SMXf
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXLsieFjby
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLJKUI3GyI
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WGDCWZKyU
"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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsdndgewV6
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKZyHqpIcE
"Did you just say 'we?'" I asked as I raised my eyebrow at him.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQYhtlJDB0
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNTjgKeVGE
"What?" he asked as if he hadn't heard my question. I felt like he did.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkzPDawhtF
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltQlIAZB0c
"You said 'we.' Who else were you with?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Hahq1pC1V
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5onNLFYp1
"Oh.., just friends, very close..., very good friends," he answered as he nodded his head.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMWsFrz3EE
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJd4cVu9Wph
"Okay," I said as I slowly nodded back. "I'm glad you had fun."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJr6HinHvba
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBp1nsjceC
"You guys should have come. It was amazing."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfyrFPVH6m
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiLJkOXXvX
"Too late for that now, isn't it?" Christine asked.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9cUiEhPul
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKGPzMCoj6
"Yep, too late. But you could still see the pics of how much fun we had."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0NCjDgNpz
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWMkLreB6k
"I bet there was plenty of booze too," said Zoey.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyV00CMpySm
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkOwOvyyjM
"Plenty," said G-Dragon with a smile.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCsH4FlcS1
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2zYbH4sOs
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....346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrh2px8e6dQ
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNpA0eWIAD
"We can check the pics later," I said. "We have a song to write."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUDEPhcPHl
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6hTftNQ0q
"The others aren't here yet?" G-Dragon asked. "How can you work on the song without them?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyj8h3rH2Hc
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9frD05bee
"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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfGZsZTp8B
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhElAyKLzIP
"Oh. I think that's fair considering that they must be tired from the party."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OltLtdrfD
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsKQuotkzH
I looked at G-Dragon, and so did the rest of the Toxins.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvjn5AiUYU
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64LAQtRh75
"They were with you at the party?" Daniel asked.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeL8o8e8XN5
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGW2YTiMd9n
"Huh....?" G-Dragon now looked like the confused one. "I thought you knew."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9oMgs5nyR
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEngwTthV1
"How would we know when we were resting yesterday and we were completely off social media?" Christine asked.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98B8S6DxVq
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4zbC8LFdT
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGpMwvfy55
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevHiLsz0yA
"You dragged them to the party, didn't you?" Zoey asked as she pointed a finger at him. "You're such a manipulator!"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxZZ1pJOP2
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4bVKypYs6
"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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX378PUmKDA
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1YxYvfF70
"I knew it!" Zoey said with a look on her face.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSjFqb3ZFo
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5py9GJvkr0
"But ninety percent of the whole convincing thing was on the other guy."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleRVDkkJl5
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFxVaIQU82
"The other guy?" Mike asked as he raised his eyebrows.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPLKqEptak
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTpWj9h0dz
"Who's the other guy?" Christine asked.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnd5WOepY1
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufx8BPHYxE
I knew there was something fishy about G-Dragon's earlier statements. He didn't just go and party with "just" close friends.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZ4feLugGB
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JQ4zXZ3x3
"Tell us," Zoey demanded when G-Dragon didn't speak.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2khRH78fJ
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwturk2XzWf
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6K3EymEOcR
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzMfwxZMaN
"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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTBPh4DoVW
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanYJ8jrrib
G-Dragon squeezed his eyes shut in fright. And just like that, we knew it was a big deal.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpk8gkmtht1
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbuKT7sSS4
"Goodness, just tell us, GD," I said. "We have a song to work on and you're just wasting our time."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrovGW24MDJ
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RLDarGRuN
"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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrE3gvSWS0u
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5NA94Wzi9
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvW2OGtOJAU
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOV257S2hx
"GD, sit down, please," I instructed him and he did.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LKvqeauKX
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvzZJbR2Uh
"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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvzE8v2sFn
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPQkBh2Sj7
"Okay, okay," G-Dragon surrendered. "I'll tell you."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30Z5tCFuHY
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7Lh7TTo7b
"First question," said Christine with her arms folded. "Who were you with downstairs when you left our floor yesterday?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeJhTeu8sa
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytI0FAnX2A
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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVEKTlWvJk
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡir7iGkYBet
"We will make sure to bury you in a lovely place, promise," said Mike. "Now, spill."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqz8L9pF4hk
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRcrECm1AU
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..."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5uZg3vcPv
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmEuaV8I3q
"GD, we don't want to hear how you all met," I said, "we want a name. Who is the guy?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8XlMu0SN2
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAad36fk5C
"It's..., it's..., Johnny," said G-Dragon. He immediately looked down at the floor.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEytddadU0
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTSLL1Gb3n
"Johnny Jerkins!" the five of us said at the same time.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefeMyZtDZm
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfUzz7H8Bj
"Yes," G-Dragon as he slowly nodded his head, still facing downwards.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxPayb0w9F
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEnPmLGGuV
Zoey fell onto the couch next to G-Dragon like she was about to pass out, her hand on her forehead.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvz03Z0B8Ro
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6oa2KZmxO
"I can't believe it" she said.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleDHQCEQUC
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWr4AT2kFox
"That explains everything," I said, as I looked at a certain part of the wall above the couch, my mind far off.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WlBFIW6p7
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1bjVVGRGK
"No wonder they couldn't make it," said Daniel.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqkkMQetTU
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCjo42KDIJ
"They didn't just go to the party, they were hanging out with Johnny," said Mike.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qSjIf101I
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xoeedtXAj
"Ya...., you won't like what I am about to show you," said Lee behind us.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrIALbEuLX
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iisUVqfyO
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqUkwUPfvx
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhMa7FFp8x
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFe1801lIc
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBETCpxIU1a
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:346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIyBINUJCZ
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMiZrbdagI
"You guys had a party on a boat?" I looked at G-Dragon.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowTetNQ91p
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG477OISkFC
"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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1II1yaMM0
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdhQANgGo3
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VImLtw7L9
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mGQhaBd81
"You guys had such a good time," said Zoey. "I wish I came."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzt1kmv5Cjt
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIhGk8ypgG
"You see, you guys should have tagged along," said G-Dragon.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NGI49iW0a
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuezYiK2QS
"And hang out with Johnny? Heck no!" Zoey detested.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKiQYYzkGt
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlX3qYHpo6p
"He seems pretty cool."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVN8HT5kgL
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9IVLc5U8o
"That's because you only just met him," said Daniel.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8qPvWGUNX
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvc00sYUO0
"You won't be hanging out with him more often, will you?" Christine asked.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpFW0t35Ik
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDADv5OyQCm
"Nah," G-Dragon denied. "I guess all that was just a one time thing."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BQBvW7c5g
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sEHsaVmqe
"That's what they all say," said Zoey. I imagined her rolling her eyes when she said that.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8Y568r2yd
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GG4bDEanf
"And let's not forget, he's in this hotel," I said. "Avoiding him will be tricky."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTys2KAx0p
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRwKabzsP1
"Don't you think maybe you guys are taking this thing a little too far?" G-Dragon asked.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKY9UkNgSc
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfHChoEZem
"What thing?" Christine asked. Her eyes were still fixed on the tablet as Lee continued to scroll.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybyv5poZgA
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVHrq8JNtc
"This 'Johnny' thing?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYr1dwMSoB
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxj1QE5kLnP
I looked up from the tablet at G-Dragon and I knew I wasn't the only one.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZNsn9kRf9
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVjJsMfOfS
"Why would we?" I asked.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3NnP1q6Bv
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYkF7mYeok
"You talk about him as if he's your worst enemy."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡay8lZeDrTK
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxJ8lhLX7K
"Look, we don't hate people, well, maybe some," said Mike. "It's just that some people aren't worth hanging out with."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVQfAcFjfQ
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRStjAIAgls
"Because of his actions back at school? Please, that was a long time ago."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAv2fLfPSYM
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8IcYxXN0r
"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?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxPpAVCC4x
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLamujbd6R4
"How ironic," said G-Dragon as he stood up from the couch.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoJRTM9EJW
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgdhHp0rIw
"Leaving already?" Lee asked.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dZPEuaNlX
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4Z2amJuyH
"Ya, I really should. Just came to check up on the progress with the song."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSZ5zOXKen
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTz582RkKZ5
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4f4rnSdeKj
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJaCUHNd2m
"I'll escort you to the elevator," I said as I stood up from the couch.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhVZSI5J0I
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BbDhykE7G
"Ok," he said and he turned to address the others, "I'll see you guys later."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSbYLKSkBs
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9H2dXiAlUO
"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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBE1bV5Me5c
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79DZNWYjd8
G-Dragon made his way out of the lounge and I was right behind him.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShKxYc8DIl
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqspD3sDKB
"Well, you seem upset," I said to him when we were in the hall.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMexnPAu7G
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9f3KKG6Fks
"No, I'm not," he said as he shrugged his shoulders.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBKQrgcifd
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkhWkdU9wm
I held his shoulder and he stopped walking, his back still facing me.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDjqggXe5j
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ck55bIHEp
"I know when you're upset," I said as I dropped my hand. "I think the others know too."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVyNOT3q7c
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBibulYWbAi
He turned around to look at me. "I don't get you guys at all," he said.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2H34IpBgJA
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dEJ41IhLH
"What do you mean?" I folded my arms.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fDj7dLOje
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEfNCFlCnW
"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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEch5LxNVYW
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoaAXZxixW
"We aren't perfect, you know? We have our emotions too, whether good or bad."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPV0sUkLwl
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1UlWb8QM4
"But why hate on Johnny so much?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnWs0tEglf
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsBTjY8klE
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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2txn4ORNkh
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUJvmRF9Vk
"Really?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36BpmICp4M
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDJlGnsLZk
"If we really did, we would have called him worse names than 'jerk' now, wouldn't we?"346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZkT4So3qO
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZ2et2J2z9
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."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNENQShGmb8
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡau4ppzNMk3
I sighed as I dropped my arms. "Some people aren't worth mingling around with, Jiyong."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24YzNfVMXx
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ECegneORu
"Is there something you aren't telling me?" He raised his eyebrow at me and took a step closer.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zoIhHBnKz
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Bj5aCAcdp
I shrugged my shoulders. "Kind of," I answered. "You're yet to know everything in due time."346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTWMDZ0r1D
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8m5uDFbwm
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.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYYF7rj5YU
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCkeFe6orP
"Okay, I'll see you around, then," said G-Dragon as he managed to smile.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6QTd68H9S
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonTmljfcTS

The five of us all looked at each other. It was surprising we wanted something sweet to boost our spirits. We needed some fresh air too. We all turned to look at Lee who sighed. She needed a doughnut too.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjG8a5rrLQp
