Meeting WINNER the 759Please respect copyright.PENANAziMrn5jS33
previous day was one of the most memorable days of my life. We had so 759Please respect copyright.PENANA5lY5XuhdVp
fun when they came, though they were just with us for a short while 759Please respect copyright.PENANAwsJaxTkFgY
because we had to be pretty cautious with when Collins and Lee were 759Please respect copyright.PENANAePPRLPFPik
going to come back to the hotel. They weren't supposed to know that 759Please respect copyright.PENANATVqx3eKa0h
WINNER had come to the hotel to visit. Most especially, Collins.759Please respect copyright.PENANAMlIqSJ8Hie
With the little time we 759Please respect copyright.PENANASOW1a9viTb
had with WINNER, I couldn't help but feel like a fan girl all over again759Please respect copyright.PENANAanFp5Rg3Jo
as we all got to know each other.759Please respect copyright.PENANAkHG9evyWDk
Seungyoon, the leader 759Please respect copyright.PENANA3olhtsXzM3
and maknae of the group is so cute. For me I really like him or maybe 759Please respect copyright.PENANANBj1AynDzr
thats just the fan girl in me saying all that. I just felt he was such a759Please respect copyright.PENANAVQR4fvmLDZ
fun and nice person to be around with.759Please respect copyright.PENANAB8GgJ63B5B
Then there is Mino, who 759Please respect copyright.PENANAg8B2kdOAEw
almost looks identical to G-Dragon, you could easily mistake the two for759Please respect copyright.PENANAXM1w8B1RVV
father and son. I mocked G-Dragon about it with the others. And Zoey 759Please respect copyright.PENANAGwAZIhU70q
kind of grew attached to Mino. Which to me, wasn't much of a surprise.759Please respect copyright.PENANA6YDlGCNzui
As for Jinwoo and 759Please respect copyright.PENANAU98rdLs9wa
Christine, they seem to be hitting it off pretty well like good friends.759Please respect copyright.PENANAD7R5hQqUNr
I for one thought they made a really cute couple. Though I had to keep 759Please respect copyright.PENANAa4nzmIJwyK
in mind Collins' golden rule about not dating anyone while we were here 759Please respect copyright.PENANAJN4dsrjhIA
in Korea.759Please respect copyright.PENANAVQsm9hqXXl
As for Seunghoon, I 759Please respect copyright.PENANAQ2JVbdTwww
wasn't going to let go of him that easily. He and I had a lot of talking759Please respect copyright.PENANArB3Clltk90
to do concerning how he got in the closet in the first place. I guess 759Please respect copyright.PENANAc2oSYQ1N2A
he was the one who had secretly been stalking me the whole time.759Please respect copyright.PENANAYEfvyRLDLI
Before they left, we 759Please respect copyright.PENANAqNp3FwCWy3
agreed to meet tomorrow at YG, though the three BigBang members didn't 759Please respect copyright.PENANA5GH4F9B3gi
think it was a good idea because of their manager. Even if the two 759Please respect copyright.PENANAIYZMwKRUuj
groups were to meet, how were we, The Toxins, going to agree with 759Please respect copyright.PENANAN2m6lhsJzz
Collins to let us go to YG? As far as everyone's concerned, we were done759Please respect copyright.PENANAkZyB7xhfCh
with our collabo with BigBang. What else were we going to do at that 759Please respect copyright.PENANAvQnN4OQscP
place?759Please respect copyright.PENANAugQ0KjEoc4
I already had that part 759Please respect copyright.PENANAgso5mIV7SN
all sorted out. G-Dragon declared that whatever I had planned wasn't 759Please respect copyright.PENANAgxMyZN6kJA
going to work this time around. The other Toxins and WINNER had faith 759Please respect copyright.PENANAYdUkC5LQpK
that it will. And I was pretty sure it would work because I knew I 759Please respect copyright.PENANAXdJTyW2LL9
wouldn't have to break a sweat.759Please respect copyright.PENANActvW6LdKJC
Right now, this very 759Please respect copyright.PENANAQfajMdBTex
morning, I'm in my purple pyjamas with a matching sleeping robe and 759Please respect copyright.PENANA9rK7mh5d2G
fluffy bed slippers, stretching and yawning as I stepped out of my room 759Please respect copyright.PENANAQpmqgm2sOl
into the hall. I made my way to the lounge where I found Collins and Lee759Please respect copyright.PENANA24VqIejB8x
by the dining table, working. The two had been so busy yesterday and 759Please respect copyright.PENANA1h91sJ8uFr
still even today. I didn't get a chance to talk to Lee about WINNER 759Please respect copyright.PENANA4v7WAmNZVh
because she came back so tired last night and went early to bed.759Please respect copyright.PENANAzZKCHxWijp
"Morning," I said as I approached the dining table.759Please respect copyright.PENANAyEIAN15qjc
"Morning," Collins replied first, then Lee. "Aren't you supposed to be asleep?" he asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANAVg57w8inIJ
"I'm tired of sleeping,"759Please respect copyright.PENANAPqV4HNtOL0
I said as I drew out a chair and sat on the opposite end of the table 759Please respect copyright.PENANACac7le8iKH
from where Collins sat. I needed to look at him straight in the eye as 759Please respect copyright.PENANA1aAymcIdFD
we talk. But as for now, he was looking down at some paper work.759Please respect copyright.PENANAfq6TAFjUkh
"Well, you can always do something, right?" he suggested.759Please respect copyright.PENANAGIFsNGue17
"Ya, I guess," I replied as I leaned back on my chair and rubbed my eyes. "I was thinking we get back to the old routine."759Please respect copyright.PENANAy47IM2d97P
"What old routine?" Collins asked. He was still not looking at me.759Please respect copyright.PENANAmS7grJAetg
"You know, going for 759Please respect copyright.PENANArp4hvM8QZF
practise every morning. We're done with what we came to do here, so I 759Please respect copyright.PENANALovtW0DwNq
was thinking it's best we try and keep ourselves busy while we wait to 759Please respect copyright.PENANAEqn6TA0lPb
go home. We can't always go shopping and sightseeing everyday. At least 759Please respect copyright.PENANAJSNm57C5aH
we try to do what we're familiar with."759Please respect copyright.PENANA8FjIMIyr0O
"Mmmm, I guess you're 759Please respect copyright.PENANAqJOsgHmt3s
right," said Collins as he looked up at me. "I was wondering what you 759Please respect copyright.PENANACgIBui5Vms
guys will be doing the whole time now that shooting the music video is 759Please respect copyright.PENANA5ZtyiuxteH
done, and you came up with a pretty good idea."759Please respect copyright.PENANA1l3nMUYGLq
"I did?" I tried not to act surprised through my sleepiness.759Please respect copyright.PENANA0s2ZKQGDrf
"Yep," Collins nodded 759Please respect copyright.PENANATZOu2TSvqo
his head. "I think doing your usual routine to start the day will be 759Please respect copyright.PENANA03VHSr8oCL
perfect. Why don't you wake up the others and head to YG? I don't want 759Please respect copyright.PENANABXNnVvdiqZ
all of you to become lazy bums at the end of the day and that won't be 759Please respect copyright.PENANAysaUjaGhe3
good now, will it?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAtq779HOjsw
Wow. This was literally 759Please respect copyright.PENANAXbAWTojLhP
not breaking a sweat. I didn't even have to look at him the entire time 759Please respect copyright.PENANAcTLkABYmM4
and he even agreed for us to start today. Perfect. Absolutely perfect.759Please respect copyright.PENANA0yen9Vch72
I tried not to act all happy about it as I yawned and slowly stood up from the chair.759Please respect copyright.PENANACnu8ImrQLB
"Okay, I'll go wake them up," I said.759Please respect copyright.PENANAfayQlIH1Mw
I left the lounge at a 759Please respect copyright.PENANAh0568iWgak
slow and steady pace. When I turned around the corner, I quickly and 759Please respect copyright.PENANAWyMpyEUv2j
quietly ran back to my room with so much excitement and through the door759Please respect copyright.PENANAcycMPBhWQC
I had left open. I ran in and jumped on Zoey's bed to wake her up.759Please respect copyright.PENANAXBo9lVlMRG
Zoey sat up with a start759Please respect copyright.PENANAR0GDPxcw3F
immediately I landed on her bed. She sucked her teeth in irritation 759Please respect copyright.PENANAXPGNuzuKd5
when she noticed it was me and fell back into the bed covers.759Please respect copyright.PENANAhUDBoZHFa0
"What's your problem, Sam?" she whined. "Can't you see it's too early in the morning?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAZiukCkgdFh
"Don't you want to go and see WINNER or what?" I asked as I looked down at her.759Please respect copyright.PENANAhjrkICQAjj
At first she didn't say a759Please respect copyright.PENANA71Hey6nSO9
word until she scrambled to sit up, pushing the bed covers aside and 759Please respect copyright.PENANAdDqfvjPDo5
looking at me with her eyes wide open.759Please respect copyright.PENANA7WN9uN7fjl
"What did you say?" she asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANAm4SHkj32hq
"Get ready, we're going for practise," I said as I stood up from the bed.759Please respect copyright.PENANAjeKsw80RWL
"We're going to YG for practise? And meet WINNER there?" Zoey couldn't believe it. "Collins agreed?"759Please respect copyright.PENANApKduV37rbu
"Ya. So get your lazy butt out of bed and let's go. I'll go wake up the others."759Please respect copyright.PENANAY91BZHkyrR
"Sam, I love you," said Zoey with a smile. "You really had it all planned out, didn't you?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAfPOXvunZB7
"I did say I had a plan, right?" I shrugged my shoulders. "And Collins agreed without an argument."759Please respect copyright.PENANAdCp3t3RGVS
"I can't wait for GD to see this. And he said your plan wouldn't work."759Please respect copyright.PENANAlk18ASwc0Z
"Sometimes it's nice to prove people wrong." I smiled and headed out of the room.759Please respect copyright.PENANA4pdf7ZMs9q
I went to wake up 759Please respect copyright.PENANAHMxLxnHHzJ
Christine who couldn't understand why we were going for practise until I759Please respect copyright.PENANAsmxw9J0KP5
told her that we had to meet WINNER at YG.759Please respect copyright.PENANAonerpbd5mE
"Wow, seriously?" Christine asked as she rubbed her eyes and sat up in bed. "Collins agreed to go back to the old routine?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAxQIz91jKRc
"I gave a reasonable 759Please respect copyright.PENANAwLTcxvSzlt
explanation so, he agreed. Now, get your gym bag all packed up. You 759Please respect copyright.PENANATOZiiOEDeX
don't want to miss meeting Jinwoo now, do you?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAiUmzgDSpcg
I noticed Christine 759Please respect copyright.PENANAlPAakiKPYW
blush out of no where and I decided not to taunt her about it. I quickly759Please respect copyright.PENANAYrqPTttMrA
walked out of the room to go and wake my brothers up. And as much as 759Please respect copyright.PENANAk9I7WqSc2V
they were excited that we were back to doing the old routine, they were 759Please respect copyright.PENANA2M0knjWGR5
happy that they would be meeting WINNER again.759Please respect copyright.PENANAEgHD1mNzK3
When we all had our bags759Please respect copyright.PENANA9wnaZPJ4Nz
packed and we were all dressed ready to go for practise, we found 759Please respect copyright.PENANA5F1yLzN7w4
ourselves in the lounge. Collins and Lee had stopped discussing and 759Please respect copyright.PENANAKMGj0yBzQq
looked at us.759Please respect copyright.PENANA9P34kAQ5gK
"Well, that was quick," said Collins.759Please respect copyright.PENANA6CqpX1vixS
"We don't need to do so much when going for practise, do we?" Zoey asked. "You told us that."759Please respect copyright.PENANAgGnuHR1vVB
"She's right," said Lee as she looked at Collins.759Please respect copyright.PENANApcJGv3Oqt3
"I hate when you use my 759Please respect copyright.PENANANnWJFL2saj
words against me," said Collins. "Let's go before you start to say 759Please respect copyright.PENANA3MIXTY1H8R
something I'm not looking forward to hearing."759Please respect copyright.PENANA41VOQyfWKT
"You know I can't do that, Collins," said Zoey. "I care too much."759Please respect copyright.PENANAkyaN313szX
Collins rolled his eyes 759Please respect copyright.PENANAPYHu3vFP78
and that almost made me laugh. "I'll keep that in mind," he said as he 759Please respect copyright.PENANAIUzcfUs4Cv
stood up from his chair. "Let's go."759Please respect copyright.PENANAI4IThbZrNX
"Isn't Lee coming with us?" Daniel asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANANopcJLMdsO
"I would really love to,759Please respect copyright.PENANAGx2jv5SsFD
guys, but we've a lot of work to do," said Lee. "I'll make sure to pass759Please respect copyright.PENANAaYUiRC1SFM
by at lunchtime to check on you."759Please respect copyright.PENANAUSuJ07356T
"You should, we have a lot to tell you," said Christine.759Please respect copyright.PENANAIm12Dx7gtc
"And what would you possibly want to tell Lee that you wouldn't tell me?" Collins asked with his arms folded.759Please respect copyright.PENANA67ZtdL9tEE
"Nothing," said Christine.759Please respect copyright.PENANAzZaaN5xdIl
I noticed Mike give 759Please respect copyright.PENANA2XeEg4Koup
Christine a little shove on the shoulder and he whispered to her to shut759Please respect copyright.PENANA7WM8vyQIC2
up. I quickly intervened before Collins could notice and ask what was 759Please respect copyright.PENANAoqf7WrRF7C
going on.759Please respect copyright.PENANAEIDt4CfJRE
"It's just about the 759Please respect copyright.PENANArlcDsn9Dwh
k-drama series we watched last night," I said. "Lee was so tired that 759Please respect copyright.PENANAm0mdi7EHby
she missed the episode that we were all planning on telling her what 759Please respect copyright.PENANAWGh2MaKF7w
happened."759Please respect copyright.PENANAmnAcTy6WF9
"You girls will tell her," said Mike. "I don't watch your k-dramas."759Please respect copyright.PENANAJRW93AEhyB
Collins sighed. "I don't watch k-dramas either but we all love something, right? Let's go."759Please respect copyright.PENANAoXTGYI0MuT
We all said bye to Lee and we headed to the elevator and found the SUV waiting for us as usual outside.759Please respect copyright.PENANAnAvVgvrMEt
When we arrived at YG, 759Please respect copyright.PENANAxfNb5fffi3
we disembarked out of the car at the entrance of the building. Collins 759Please respect copyright.PENANAlxAe93Pnq9
wasn't coming in with us because he said he had to rush back to work.759Please respect copyright.PENANASNoD6mg7Cz
"I already informed the 759Please respect copyright.PENANAF1FJ5quoaR
working staff that you guys will be around," said Collins as he talked 759Please respect copyright.PENANATtX0OTVRM2
to us through the car window. "You guys behave yourselves, okay?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAMLDpkZ8Uyo
"Don't worry about a thing, Collins," I said. "I can handle it when things get out of hand."759Please respect copyright.PENANAyjVMN9zXJO
"I know you will. See you later."759Please respect copyright.PENANANRlc73wgfy
"Bye, Collins," said Zoey and Christine at the same time as they waved at Collins who waved back.759Please respect copyright.PENANAF7mXwZa9tQ
Immediately the car drove out of the YG premises, we all turned around and found ourselves in the lobby.759Please respect copyright.PENANATLrR9ywmfQ
"I can't believe this is happening," said Christine so excitedly as we walked towards the elevator.759Please respect copyright.PENANAleHxaSHpou
"I know. Sam is a genius!" Zoey said as she wrapped her arm around my neck and brought me closer to her.759Please respect copyright.PENANAhDm9khfAwY
"Careful, Zoey," I said 759Please respect copyright.PENANAbI6ChffkeO
as I waved at the receptionist at the desk, who happily waved back at 759Please respect copyright.PENANAItq1tQndcY
us. "And you're squeezing me to death."759Please respect copyright.PENANALhZV0rBVPL
"My sis has always been a genius," said Daniel.759Please respect copyright.PENANAZb45DlvlDQ
"Did you text them that we're already here?" Mike asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANAhLlXCCTZ49
"I did that when we were in the car," I said when Zoey had finally let go of my neck and we had reached the elevator.759Please respect copyright.PENANADWrzfts4jx
"Good, so we wait," said Zoey as she pressed the up button of the elevator.759Please respect copyright.PENANAQLBPoya3fH
"No," I said as the 759Please respect copyright.PENANAb3jZMpKUgF
doors flew open and we all went in. "We practise." The doors closed 759Please respect copyright.PENANADbDHSjAWNU
before us and I pressed the button to the floor leading to the dance 759Please respect copyright.PENANAbz5UtNvqCS
studios.759Please respect copyright.PENANArqAuLt0V7H
"Are you kidding me?" Zoey moaned as she leaned on the walls.759Please respect copyright.PENANA2XndAaGr9D
"We did say we come here for exactly that, didn't we? It would look weird if we were just snooping around doing nothing."759Please respect copyright.PENANAKbGb5oWSOa
"And besides, I don't think we've gone for practise in the morning for a while now," said Mike. "I really missed dance."759Please respect copyright.PENANA85L24NvKbK
"We just danced three days ago," said Zoey, with her eyebrow raised.759Please respect copyright.PENANAZHGpvlpOTA
"That's different."759Please respect copyright.PENANAb0KvyDfoQF
"Ya, I still get what you mean. So, we practise and while we do that we wait for WINNER."759Please respect copyright.PENANASjiYKJ9J4e
"Exactly," I said as I smiled at Zoey. "Not so hard to do, isn't it?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAeJ8PsOAaNM
"Don't mind, Zoey," said Christine. "We all know her too much already."759Please respect copyright.PENANAAewfFG81Jl
"I'm not a lazy bum if that's what you mean," said Zoey.759Please respect copyright.PENANAJa3WGRM6el
We soon got to the dance studios and when we occupied one of themy which was empty, we began to practise right away.759Please respect copyright.PENANAq1kSSvW5NJ
It was so much fun 759Please respect copyright.PENANABaeItksugO
getting back to our old routine. I soon had that sense of relief after 759Please respect copyright.PENANAKFLw0iS7jC
we practised even though I was tired after our first few rounds. I was 759Please respect copyright.PENANAHEwFM2s19N
born to dance and I realised that I had missed doing it.759Please respect copyright.PENANANeLKrfPy0a
"What time are these guys coming?" Zoey asked as she was seated on the floor.759Please respect copyright.PENANAMIBKkoQGwT
"It isn't even close to two hours, Zoey," I said with my hands on my hips.759Please respect copyright.PENANAuHwQOvku6x
"I know, I'm just impatient and I'm already tired of practise."759Please respect copyright.PENANALRKbNKyz4n
"I'm so glad I told Collins that we should do this again. You've become so lazy. Stand up. Let's go for another round."759Please respect copyright.PENANASzTHWaYdzf
"Another round!" Zoey complained. "Can't we at least wait for the boys and Christine to come back?"759Please respect copyright.PENANA0Myp5vkojc
Christine, Mike and Daniel had gone out to fetch water bottles for all of us downstairs a good five minutes ago.759Please respect copyright.PENANAKXIuo4nx3n
"Come on, let's go one on one, just you and me," I challenged.759Please respect copyright.PENANApMBzsF6OgW
"No way," said Zoey, still on the floor and shaking her head. "You know that you're a way better dancer than I am."759Please respect copyright.PENANAWrwgtcDB2n
"Mike's like 'the' best in our group."759Please respect copyright.PENANAQdM0Qbl49x
"And you're second. There's not much of a difference."759Please respect copyright.PENANAF5X8vT3V2Z
"Come on, Zoey," I 759Please respect copyright.PENANA2R4fCuphal
pleaded as I went over to the Beats by Dre pill, lying a few feet away 759Please respect copyright.PENANAIDpg3oYNKu
from us. "I promise I'll play that song you really like."759Please respect copyright.PENANAN63hJImDfM
"What song?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAA5Gm0UUcUc
I didn't answer when I 759Please respect copyright.PENANAfKuh78k4fx
got my phone that was lying close to the pill and went through my music 759Please respect copyright.PENANAhdMk5aQoei
list. I tapped on the track, "The Greatest" by Sia and the music on the 759Please respect copyright.PENANA6jf35zk4uA
pill soon started to play.759Please respect copyright.PENANAkFRri9Igf3
I turned around and I found Zoey already up from the floor and looking at me. I smiled. I knew she would get up to this song.759Please respect copyright.PENANAsSUqGvuCee
"I hate you, Sam," she said as I approached her.759Please respect copyright.PENANAsFeD0kbTQV
"Just dance, Zoey," I said as we stood a few feet away from her, facing her.759Please respect copyright.PENANAVBHT6soIOj
When the lyrics were sang out, Zoey started to dance and I watched her, then it was my turn to step in and dance too.759Please respect copyright.PENANAtGk1XZCYLq
It's been a while since I759Please respect copyright.PENANA19IDpRLmgb
had a real dance battle with Zoey and I had to admit, I was enjoying 759Please respect copyright.PENANAPyHG8ogZ0T
myself. Though we were dancing to one of Zoey's favourite songs and she 759Please respect copyright.PENANAWZVJS5MEWS
was so good at dancing to it, I felt I was up to her level.759Please respect copyright.PENANANSRVAiFqCM
At the end of it, the 759Please respect copyright.PENANA5Y7Xrl1Pjj
whole thing didn't finish like a dance battle. We danced together both 759Please respect copyright.PENANADzrCQTnFqO
our moves synchronising with one another.759Please respect copyright.PENANA5N0287NlIS
When the song was done, the two of us were facing each other and panting like crazy.759Please respect copyright.PENANAJsofHQwWbL
"That was so cool," said Zoey. "Let's do that again."759Please respect copyright.PENANAsCBYAsEcFu
"Wow! You two were awesome," came Mino's voice behind us.759Please respect copyright.PENANAqdA783TvVp
Zoey and I turned around and there stood, Mino and Seunghoon, both smiling at us.759Please respect copyright.PENANAajwnLyhHoG
"Aaah! You're here!" Zoey exclaimed excitedly and ran over to them. I was too exhausted to run, so I walked.759Please respect copyright.PENANAz0aP2gET8G
"Morning guys, how are you doing?" Zoey greeted them. "I wish I could hug you but I'm all drenched in sweat."759Please respect copyright.PENANAO5FZgNhuH4
"We're great," said Mino. "Can we watch you two dance battle again? It was awesome."759Please respect copyright.PENANA36IEJUZSQI
"You watched the whole thing?" I asked as I finally got closer.759Please respect copyright.PENANA00yMf56YEq
"Pretty much," said Seunghoon.759Please respect copyright.PENANAIIQFmYCtKj
"Okay, so who do you think is a better dancer?" Zoey asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANA2ZfQgFKT2w
"Zoey," I gave her that look telling her that it wasn't necessary.759Please respect copyright.PENANArqWqTF8mO2
"No, like, seriously," Zoey went on completely ignoring me. "Whose the best?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAv6uMGj5X8k
Mino and Seunghoon both 759Please respect copyright.PENANAmw9pfgHVg0
looked at each other and I didn't want to know what was running through 759Please respect copyright.PENANAoTCBKcnpCz
their minds. They smiled and went on to look at Zoey and I.759Please respect copyright.PENANAjEMIjDJc0h
"I think Sam is a better dancer," said Seunghoon.759Please respect copyright.PENANA4LCMMr6Ne8
"Well, I think Zoey is," said Mino.759Please respect copyright.PENANAEkd8vAZAkT
Zoey smiled to herself. "And it's a tie. We need more votes."759Please respect copyright.PENANAan1OU7z70G
"Zoey can you just drop the whole thing? It's not really necessary," I said.759Please respect copyright.PENANAFV0ZaX0jYy
"Where is Seungyoon and Jinwoo?" Zoey asked, ignoring me again. "Didn't you all come together?"759Please respect copyright.PENANA5ZXRpEOr96
"We met the other Toxins downstairs and they decided to stick with them," Mino answered. 759Please respect copyright.PENANA18Ugwrbs4H
"We will wait for them and then Sam and I can dance again and see who is the best."759Please respect copyright.PENANA3vtzj4cncY
I shook my head at Zoey and said nothing. She could be so persistent at times and right now, I couldn't do anything to stop her.759Please respect copyright.PENANAFphlNeR5c6
"Seunghoon, you I need to talk," I said as I looked at him.759Please respect copyright.PENANAE6Y4MUfrsd
"Ya, sure. What is it?" Seunghoon asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANANnDYyucLor
I nudged my head to the 759Please respect copyright.PENANA1bvjnx0r8k
side telling him to follow me. I went over to the wall and leaned my 759Please respect copyright.PENANAzQHkXjLQVy
back on to it. I had the back heel of my right foot pressing against the759Please respect copyright.PENANAuyFmfjjyQw
wall as I was staring at Seunghoon as he came closer.759Please respect copyright.PENANALFM3ESoAyt
"I want to know everything," I said with my arms folded.759Please respect copyright.PENANAmuhfYHU3VA
Seunghoon lips were 759Please respect copyright.PENANA5RYpJTURoj
raised to a smile. And it was a corky one. That meant he knew what I was759Please respect copyright.PENANABaqOb6Wius
talking about. I wished he could stop doing that. He was making me lose759Please respect copyright.PENANAAnDS19CZcq
focus.759Please respect copyright.PENANA8yDTGKIhCr
"You aren't letting this go, are you?" he asked with his eyebrow raised.759Please respect copyright.PENANAhJYQu3NMNt
"The others might, but I759Please respect copyright.PENANAkdSGvDaibu
haven't," I said. "And I can also bet, the BigBang members aren't going759Please respect copyright.PENANAmmPZHjMu0I
to either. So, were you the one at the park hiding behind the trees 759Please respect copyright.PENANAyuVVIRG5TF
when TOP came to pick me up?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAsSkYdU36na
Seunghoon took a step closer and answered, "yes."759Please respect copyright.PENANAF3Qk2w8WOj
"And the one who was standing behind the door when I was alone in the recording studio and I chased you down the hall?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAdKoEttULdf
He again took a step closer. "Yes."759Please respect copyright.PENANA6bLBVLJZxK
Well, that made sense 759Please respect copyright.PENANA8gAedOZa5H
since the time I was chasing him down the hall, I never caught him 759Please respect copyright.PENANAXaKmmiEYA0
because he had disappeared when I reached the lobby and no one had seen 759Please respect copyright.PENANAaj87B762FA
him. Only a person who knew YG could know where to go without being 759Please respect copyright.PENANAlhxBcg2GDm
seen.759Please respect copyright.PENANAZY18dDlcZL
I hadn't realised it 759Please respect copyright.PENANAV2XASmUKYW
till now that I was looking up at him. He was so tall and he was looking759Please respect copyright.PENANAxlB6iqAkcO
down at me, his eyes never leaving mine. I gulped at how close he was 759Please respect copyright.PENANAdshB9fifRw
that I could feel his body warmth. And that made me pretty 759Please respect copyright.PENANAu4SdfLUOH9
uncomfortable.759Please respect copyright.PENANAvwK0MOnPco
"So, its been you the whole time?" I asked as I looked away, trying to ignore him and how close he was.759Please respect copyright.PENANAbLKJZpWOgA
"Well, yes," he 759Please respect copyright.PENANAokxbF5670n
answered. "The others knew about it and they didn't like the idea of me 759Please respect copyright.PENANA2KUAtBTDgw
stalking you. But I couldn't because I'm such a big fan of The Toxins."759Please respect copyright.PENANAOR08XzSzMV
"If you're such a fan why didn't you stalk the others as well?" I asked as I looked at him. "I'm not the only Toxin."759Please respect copyright.PENANAvlafof6bCg
"Apparently you happen to be my bias," said Seunghoon as he leaned closer and whispered in my ear.759Please respect copyright.PENANAukaZIuDWXm
I blushed and I was a 759Please respect copyright.PENANAET7ZmJrlEK
little surprised that he used the word "bias." In Korea, most people 759Please respect copyright.PENANAZSDoA2CVPO
refer to that word when it was comes to the person who tends to be a 759Please respect copyright.PENANA9cY1Mbth4m
personal favourite or most liked especially in relation to k-pop 759Please respect copyright.PENANAG77VSPaAgW
celebrities.759Please respect copyright.PENANAmpJXOs4Tmn
Seunghoon playfully tapped the tip of my nose and he laughed. "You look so cute when you blush. Has anyone ever told you that?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAijm0pOOTJX
"Well, yes," I said as I shrugged my shoulders.759Please respect copyright.PENANA2ChaiG6vFN
"I bet most of the BigBang members say that about you."759Please respect copyright.PENANAaRmVEnWX4q
"No, they don't," I lied759Please respect copyright.PENANAXOns9cIKV1
and Seunghoon laughed. He could clearly see through me because I was 759Please respect copyright.PENANASdhPC6UP8m
blushing too much. I shoved him aside and walked away. Luckily, the 759Please respect copyright.PENANAfOLObjffVN
others had arrived.759Please respect copyright.PENANA4QGoto6W9W
"Good, the two groups are complete," said Zoey as she clapped her hands together.759Please respect copyright.PENANAQNqLO2YVi8
"A 'hi' would be nice, don't you think?" Jinwoo suggested as he walked alongside Christine.759Please respect copyright.PENANAnSu8tkCyZX
"That's Zoey," I said. "How are you two doing today?" I asked Seungyoon and Jinwoo.759Please respect copyright.PENANARA8lxMSoZu
"We're great," Seungyoon answered. "And you?"759Please respect copyright.PENANA0Z35YtGlZg
"Awesome," I replied.759Please respect copyright.PENANAliH10eptXI
"Okay, Sam get over here," said Zoey as she took hold of my hand and dragged me with her.759Please respect copyright.PENANAdm2cZUkodS
"What the....Zoey!" I tried to pull my arm away from her grip but I was still being dragged along either way.759Please respect copyright.PENANAlQOVN73ojt
"What's going on?" Mike asked. I bet he had a confused look on his face.759Please respect copyright.PENANAlaum0j3vAQ
Zoey stopped when she and I stood a few feet from the others. She turned to look at them.759Please respect copyright.PENANA9cIkYHRtYi
"Sam and I are going to have a dance battle," she said.759Please respect copyright.PENANAwPk5gitc9V
"Huh?" Christine looked confused.759Please respect copyright.PENANARxzNTmqBDr
"Is that really necessary?" Daniel asked. "You should be having a dance battle with Mike not Sam."759Please respect copyright.PENANAAuWieWB0Qv
"And besides, you and I 759Please respect copyright.PENANAqppCD8OoGI
have countless dance battles back home," I said after I pulled my hand 759Please respect copyright.PENANAmiziYPZmnx
away from her grip. "If you ask me, we were just having fun until Mino 759Please respect copyright.PENANAoNZ1Nu8hM7
and Seunghoon showed up."759Please respect copyright.PENANAroPUPACWCv
"Zoey, Sam is a better dancer than you. Period," said Mike as he unscrewed a bottle of water and drank some.759Please respect copyright.PENANAcZy10YOiYM
"That's not what Mino said," said Zoey with her hands on her hips.759Please respect copyright.PENANA10AiaKcEcd
"You should have seen the dance battle these two had," said Mino. "It was pretty awesome."759Please respect copyright.PENANAOYvfKAuQJ7
"I would also love to see it," said Jinwoo.759Please respect copyright.PENANAJM6Ehw7X3k
"Pretty, please?" Seungyoon pleaded with his hands clapped together and looking at me with those cute adorable eyes of his.759Please respect copyright.PENANA9UIv3VP9qd
Apparently, he wasn't 759Please respect copyright.PENANA3bBmw6a3ib
the only one doing the puppy eye thing. The four WINNER members were all759Please respect copyright.PENANA1jq6oHS7Hj
doing but as they looked at me. Mino even had to pout his lips and that759Please respect copyright.PENANAMChx9j54FE
just made him look even more adorable.759Please respect copyright.PENANALDDmwfNDyk
I wanted to look away but I couldn't. They were really making me do something I didn't want to do.759Please respect copyright.PENANAVGutEC48nm
"Come on, Sam," said Zoey. "Look, they are even doing the puppy eyes. So cute."759Please respect copyright.PENANAbj5WuIaXHS
I rolled my eyes and sighed. "Fine. Let's battle," I said as I walked over to the audio Beats by Dre pill.759Please respect copyright.PENANA8zVYuJTPUD
"Yes!" I heard the four 759Please respect copyright.PENANAW2xOzE5WS7
of them cheer. I smiled at their reaction as I got my phone and looked 759Please respect copyright.PENANAyniTP94Z77
at the track list. Then, something came to me.759Please respect copyright.PENANAzn0bvmjXak
"Change of plans, Zoey,"759Please respect copyright.PENANAbAjd2yhhJx
I said as I turned around. Everyone's eyes were now on me. "If you want759Please respect copyright.PENANAffW49WCQo8
this dance battle, I suggest we pick another song."759Please respect copyright.PENANAIgDnG50fU1
"Okay, fine," said Zoey. "I'm up for it."759Please respect copyright.PENANAx34rsaRYmK
"Since we danced to one of your favourite songs, I'll pick my own." I gave her a smirk. "And it's a k-pop song."759Please respect copyright.PENANALEG7kxJo48
"This just got interesting," said Mino.759Please respect copyright.PENANA3BL2LT7hVj
"Fine, whatever." Zoey rolled her eyes. "What song are we dancing to?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAOXO7UfrRks
"Ringa Linga (링가 링가) by Taeyang," I beamed. "One of my personal favourites."759Please respect copyright.PENANApTkSLR5h45
"Taeyang is going to 759Please respect copyright.PENANAl3nWtY9glO
love this," said Mike as he went over to his gym bag to get his phone. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAZs3gH5gUQb
"Good song choice by the way, Sam. It's also one of my favourites."759Please respect copyright.PENANAixKbsOuwvy
"Thanks," I smiled at my brother who had his phone ready to capture a video. I turned to look at Zoey. "Ready for this."759Please respect copyright.PENANAdYLoo7NuF0
"Totally," said Zoey, as she looked back at me.759Please respect copyright.PENANAcwtP4terqF
I tapped the track on my759Please respect copyright.PENANAqtLD8CQ0Yj
phone and quickly put the phone next to the audio pill and quickly 759Please respect copyright.PENANACkZV2oNOgS
rushed to stand face to face with Zoey.759Please respect copyright.PENANApJYouRQe87
When the song started, I759Please respect copyright.PENANA8Dec4EJmj4
took the dance floor and danced. Then Zoey stepped in. We kept taking 759Please respect copyright.PENANAurUYsz029p
turns, but whenever it came to the chorus, she and I would dance 759Please respect copyright.PENANAlNHPQsy67e
together, dancing to the actual moves done in the actual music video. I 759Please respect copyright.PENANAxrS9ANXnbx
was a little surprised dancing to the moves because I had never tried to759Please respect copyright.PENANAlzhSymKlWk
practice on them before. All I ever did was watch. And Zoey was also 759Please respect copyright.PENANA6byVuOhM7V
doing a pretty good with the moves too.759Please respect copyright.PENANAAWRsu0HKoL
When the song was done and Zoey and I stood there in our stance, there was a loud cheer coming from the others.759Please respect copyright.PENANALQP8TmpEVA
"Wow, totally mind blowing," said Jinwoo.759Please respect copyright.PENANAActmH4Gjgn
"Whenever it came to the759Please respect copyright.PENANA4hnhQVxGT1
chorus, it didn't look like you were having a dance battle at all," 759Please respect copyright.PENANApep5KvCcaB
sais Seungyoon. "I've to say, that was pretty sweet to watch."759Please respect copyright.PENANAE7WXEDMD6G
"I loved everything about this dance battle," said Mino. "I could watch you two all day long."759Please respect copyright.PENANAhMIXyOYEMm
"Thanks, guys," I said.759Please respect copyright.PENANA3lw6Y2mhuN
"I loved that you danced to that song," said Christine.759Please respect copyright.PENANALyap1eOgpR
"Now, coming to my 759Please respect copyright.PENANAqLzzkZ4Vcg
question," started Zoey, trying to gather her breath. I rolled my eyes 759Please respect copyright.PENANA8fsek5BccN
as I walked away and got a water bottle from Christine. "Who do you 759Please respect copyright.PENANAuKrBah0Y2s
think is a better dancer?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAkNWOk2FuM0
"Wait," I said before anyone could say anything. I put the bottle of water to my lips and drank some water. "Don't answer that."759Please respect copyright.PENANA6HWgR685ol
"Why?" Zoey asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANAxWj9fSXuQ1
"I think you and I both 759Please respect copyright.PENANAbleZZX9eLv
danced really well and there is no need to ask. Besides, you and I have 759Please respect copyright.PENANAh7wOnNvw2j
never practised on those moves in our lives, especially on the chorus. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAZMVE9NyZHA
That counts for something, right?"759Please respect copyright.PENANArIwLe7LGtF
"I agree with Sam," said Daniel. "You two were great."759Please respect copyright.PENANAJdRmySh16z
"Sam is right," said Seungyoon. "I wouldn't also fuss about it if I were you."759Please respect copyright.PENANADZHicM6iYg
"I still want to know though," said Zoey.759Please respect copyright.PENANAWkcj0lQ8B5
"Fine, I've a better idea," said Mike. "Why don't we ask the whole world to vote?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAaqOvJql9qU
"Wait, you want to ask our fans?" Daniel asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANASaoPwSQ776
"Well, ya." Mike 759Please respect copyright.PENANA27zH391yum
shrugged his shoulders. "I don't want to vote because I think it's 759Please respect copyright.PENANAcCIsp0TNjH
pretty obvious who is the best." He put so much emphasis on that last 759Please respect copyright.PENANAc2PzwHNzdh
sentence as he looked at Zoey.759Please respect copyright.PENANAISwGFLDQqf
"Mike's right," said Zoey as she approached him. "Let our fans choose who won the dance battle."759Please respect copyright.PENANApylfaKpVlp
"This is pathetic," I muttered to myself as I drank some more water.759Please respect copyright.PENANAmFiSWiGbqN
"I also think it will be759Please respect copyright.PENANAtX26DzylmH
great if the fans see this," said Jinwoo. "They will love it and will 759Please respect copyright.PENANACRGuu6hENF
obviously bring out a better opinion."759Please respect copyright.PENANAvYmlvU2Iz6
"See, even Jinwoo agrees," said Zoey as she looked at me.759Please respect copyright.PENANARdVPxZkQ3f
"Count me out of it," I 759Please respect copyright.PENANAefMORnRy7O
said as I raised my hands midway in the air and took a step back. "I 759Please respect copyright.PENANAjvyBkLVcka
don't care what you people do at the end of the day."759Please respect copyright.PENANAAJQtJI1vr6
"Fine, I'll create a 759Please respect copyright.PENANAR5qceOKCZd
voting poll and upload the video. At the end of the day, we will see how759Please respect copyright.PENANA9qCGMccjbl
all this comes out," said Mike, as he tapped away on his phone. "Though759Please respect copyright.PENANAAXOEffK6KP
I'm pretty sure Sam will win."759Please respect copyright.PENANA1qteAetEQc
"You're just saying that because she's your sister," said Zoey. "I know I'm going to win."759Please respect copyright.PENANAuPVFcH5q1w
"No, it's because I'm speaking the truth. Daniel, back me up on this one."759Please respect copyright.PENANA2lfiAvSHxe
"Don't look at me, I would rather see what the fans think," said Daniel.759Please respect copyright.PENANA4h79x47z6H
Zoey and Mike soon got 759Please respect copyright.PENANAOpiJJzEYYD
into their little debate while the others listened. I decided to ignore 759Please respect copyright.PENANAYyF5EfdCnR
them and went over to get my phone and the audio pill. Looked like 759Please respect copyright.PENANAXSTCrVqrFO
practise was already over since everyone was now talking about the dance759Please respect copyright.PENANArp9MFeVQom
battle.759Please respect copyright.PENANAECCmTdjvhH
I got my phone and the 759Please respect copyright.PENANAJhS6UI2g1k
pill in my other hand. I was checking my phone for any messages until I 759Please respect copyright.PENANAVragFV7ezP
soon felt a sudden presence of someone standing next to me.759Please respect copyright.PENANAgIXreayGrx
"Well, you don't seem so enthusiastic about the whole thing," came Jinwoo.759Please respect copyright.PENANAvpvkvs73rP
I turned to look at him 759Please respect copyright.PENANAtmxOj8wCIJ
and he had that friendly smile on his face. I smiled back at him in an 759Please respect copyright.PENANA566Go22FWk
instant. Felt more like an impulse. His smile was so warm, you couldn't 759Please respect copyright.PENANAKexckkfJck
easily ignore it. Even a person who had been grumpy the whole day would 759Please respect copyright.PENANA0osYLNhIgj
smile if they were to look at him.759Please respect copyright.PENANAR4xRmVC0UE
"No," I replied, still with a smile on my face. "I don't want to know what the fans think and I'm clearly not in a mood."759Please respect copyright.PENANAeWwDkt1NhI
"If you ask me, I think you clearly won the dance battle," he said.759Please respect copyright.PENANA49A6VE4L6s
"Thanks, but make sure Zoey doesn't hear that. I wouldn't like to see her yell at you."759Please respect copyright.PENANAb7SrUvrY11
"Trust me, I wouldn't. Mike did say she is a drama queen for a reason."759Please respect copyright.PENANACYCvwl84YS
"You're right about that."759Please respect copyright.PENANAt3ypolTBqg
I looked behind me with a759Please respect copyright.PENANAia2TErUrnM
smile and I could see the debate heating up a little. I wasn't too 759Please respect copyright.PENANAvuiGx2tdnD
worried about my brother and Zoey. They might have their differences, 759Please respect copyright.PENANAIDVGZop8US
but they never got into a serious fight, better yet a physical one. The 759Please respect copyright.PENANAEAJBJMgIec
two of them arguing was an everyday drama I never got to stress over.759Please respect copyright.PENANAZC1gyILUZ7
"They aren't going to stop, are they?" Jinwoo asked. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAj5rf1fHpL9
"Not anytime soon," I said as I looked at him. "What are we planning to do today, anyway? We all can't stay here at YG."759Please respect copyright.PENANAFWN3hOUSa8
"Have no clue. Any bright ideas?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAyslC1muNj5
"No, not yet actually." I stared at my phone to look at the time. "It's almost ten. Collins expects us to be here till lunch."759Please respect copyright.PENANAHHVl04pUPp
"Maybe we can sneak out. And go some place to have fun."759Please respect copyright.PENANAk6mPufyPRm
"Ya, you're right. Though we all shouldn't be seen together or else it will raise questions."759Please respect copyright.PENANA4bI7COx2nh
"May I ask what you two are up to?" Christine asked as she approached us with Daniel.759Please respect copyright.PENANAMid3taqeYS
"We're planning a way to sneak out of the place without being seen together," I replied.759Please respect copyright.PENANAMzrG5fXYYT
"Sneak out? Why?" Daniel asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANAcMPSQekKkh
"We made plans to hang out with WINNER, didn't we? And we can't do it here."759Please respect copyright.PENANAEO28IufBXo
"Then, how are we going to get out?" Christine asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANAKTU5CDy8XP
"It's a Sunday and there isn't a lot of people around," said Jinwoo. "It's not going to be that complicated."759Please respect copyright.PENANAtEQjwaBsnz
"I sure hope so," I 759Please respect copyright.PENANAI9ZIHSlJaQ
said. I turned to look at Christine and Daniel. "Let's all hit the 759Please respect copyright.PENANAM8UpfUIlpS
showers real quick and then we can leave this place."759Please respect copyright.PENANAeOFfnjZP1J
"What about those two?" 759Please respect copyright.PENANAg4pV7bXbRy
Daniel asked with his thumb pointing at Zoey and Mike behind him who 759Please respect copyright.PENANAWqpj6VyNo7
were still debating. It looked it would turn into an argument anytime 759Please respect copyright.PENANAPkhz71ER4h
soon.759Please respect copyright.PENANAC6Pwcn4325
"They will notice when 759Please respect copyright.PENANA0fDglWg3bd
we're gone," I said. "If the others ask where we are, tell them we've 759Please respect copyright.PENANA2kWHyXalOI
gone to freshen up, will you, Jinwoo?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAAlBzJptpzs
"Sure," he said with a smile.759Please respect copyright.PENANASbV6Il3BSe
Christine, Daniel and I 759Please respect copyright.PENANAAUOPmtSqd1
went over to get our gyms bags and we walked out of the studio without 759Please respect copyright.PENANABGk2SS8lcL
the others even noticing, except for Jinwoo of course.759Please respect copyright.PENANA4K6QiuwPFe
Twenty minutes later, I 759Please respect copyright.PENANAfNjLsTBj0s
was walking out of the girl's shower room all freshened and dressed up 759Please respect copyright.PENANAPJOvu1ut9M
in a white t-shirt with blue polkadots and matching black jeans with 759Please respect copyright.PENANAGxA92BAeMY
flat black boots. I was carrying my gym bag and was walking alongside 759Please respect copyright.PENANAiVvwTu4eiX
Christine who wore a pretty apple green summer dress. We had left Zoey 759Please respect copyright.PENANA7CyTdEcRlw
in the shower room, still patching herself up.759Please respect copyright.PENANAd98zqyYhto
"Well, you look pretty today in that dress," I said as I looked at Christine.759Please respect copyright.PENANAiWHCjByz3k
"Oh, thanks," said Christine as she smiled. "I just thought of wearing it."759Please respect copyright.PENANA9DSXeniIfc
"Why? Anything special?"759Please respect copyright.PENANA6iPTE2ztis
"No, why do you ask?" Christine looked at me with an eyebrow raised.759Please respect copyright.PENANATCIxRiVTD7
"Oh, nothing," I stared 759Please respect copyright.PENANAw5gQNb9tE1
up at the ceiling as we were soon approaching the men's shower room. "I 759Please respect copyright.PENANAlmVkzc03Cd
thought since that dress is so pretty and nice, you must have worn it 759Please respect copyright.PENANAAfUsmYOt40
either for a special occasion or for a special someone."759Please respect copyright.PENANA2H3svysIew
We stopped right at the open entrance of the men's shower room and Christine looked at me.759Please respect copyright.PENANA8nU8uX6gp1
"There is no special occasion," said Christine.759Please respect copyright.PENANAIhh32cuGnf
"Then it's for a special someone, right?" I looked her directly in the eye and I had a playful smile on my face.759Please respect copyright.PENANAEz0pVhCqhI
"It's not that either." She rolled her eyes.759Please respect copyright.PENANAFLApEvoq7h
"Your eyes say it all, Christine. And I know it's one of the guys from WINNER."759Please respect copyright.PENANAUsLI1Tj7AV
"What are you talking about?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAJJzI9x1wQw
"You like Jinwoo, don't you?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAQo4MOsCYBY
Christine's mouth fell 759Please respect copyright.PENANARLecNSEwu6
open and she closed it immediately. I could see that she was blushing 759Please respect copyright.PENANAxcACorbGap
and she managed to look away thinking that I wouldn't notice.759Please respect copyright.PENANASMKFhaZFHQ
"No, I don't," she said.759Please respect copyright.PENANAQQzjmcDnXn
"Jinwoo is a nice guy but that doesn't mean I 'like like' him. Maybe I 759Please respect copyright.PENANAIfUMsLYnbX
do like him but only as a fan girl."759Please respect copyright.PENANAiCH546zYvi
"Please, I saw the way 759Please respect copyright.PENANAnnBpcQ7BIN
you looked at him yesterday and today. There is no doubt in my mind that759Please respect copyright.PENANAWwN0LuijxE
you really like him. If you ask me, you two would make a great couple."759Please respect copyright.PENANAwqMuIpOp4M
"Stop dreaming, Sam," 759Please respect copyright.PENANAb5vz2xK5FT
said Christine. "Don't forget Collins' golden rule. We can't date any of759Please respect copyright.PENANAzRS7RkfGMz
these guys. And besides, I only like Jinwoo as a friend and nothing 759Please respect copyright.PENANAKa1AzTWFex
more."759Please respect copyright.PENANAYlA0I5EH7T
"Ya, right," I said as I759Please respect copyright.PENANAXAR0Y91ij8
folded my arms. "I saw the way you looked at the both of us when we 759Please respect copyright.PENANAjABtNpa0kN
were discussing on how we were going to sneak out of here. You had that 759Please respect copyright.PENANAqIlLmLZslj
weird look on your face."759Please respect copyright.PENANAB7mMGVSWP9
"What weird look?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAfFz24Wbib7
"The jealous one."759Please respect copyright.PENANAUY8SoMaKp3
"Spare me the drama, Sam."759Please respect copyright.PENANA5yyq9OLhuG
"If Zoey was the one 759Please respect copyright.PENANAB32AFZkNNY
talking to you about this right now, you wouldn't have the chance to 759Please respect copyright.PENANA7zgrpXnt9K
breathe. At least I'm not even pushing you to admit that you like 759Please respect copyright.PENANAfksdk094LJ
Jinwoo."759Please respect copyright.PENANAdOWQLukjPj
"You do have a point," said Christine as she nodded her head and stared at the ceiling.759Please respect copyright.PENANA4dId0quVRN
"Which one? The part for Zoey or the fact that you like Jinwoo?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAn8OmVpUTsZ
"Very smart, Sam." She frowned at me. "But I'm not falling for that one."759Please respect copyright.PENANAf41mqs1qTv
I winced. She caught me. Now I wouldn't know if she really liked him or not.759Please respect copyright.PENANAcbov3Vuxhd
The boys suddenly appeared coming out of the men's shower all dressed up and ready to go.759Please respect copyright.PENANA68Qbu6161y
"Well, someone looks nice today," said Daniel as he looked at Christine.759Please respect copyright.PENANAL5v2WGZDUS
"Oh, thanks, Daniel," said Christine as she smiled.759Please respect copyright.PENANA0XZ73zjwoA
"See, even Daniel has noticed that you're glowing," I said as I smiled at Christine.759Please respect copyright.PENANAdycH6fWGw3
"She is," said Mike, as he looked at Christine. "Anything special going on?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAWqXQnGSKA6
"No!" Christine answered quickly and shaking her head.759Please respect copyright.PENANAdsN1BNm6e7
Mike gave Christine a 759Please respect copyright.PENANAnDMbb61gep
look and shrugged his shoulders afterwards, brushing it off. But I knew 759Please respect copyright.PENANA3WFj8jEo7O
that look very well. He had a hunch that something was up. And he wasn't759Please respect copyright.PENANAt8lQKetM7r
wrong about that.759Please respect copyright.PENANA3hz6VPa2Wb
We decided to go back to759Please respect copyright.PENANAUXSuCRqCf3
the dance studio where WINNER were waiting for us, hoping that Zoey 759Please respect copyright.PENANAfgbyK2vpif
would catch up with us sooner or later. And when we got into the studio,759Please respect copyright.PENANAO8MeneuXtz
this happened:759Please respect copyright.PENANAqODPkeSgDY
"Wow, you two ladies are looking fine," said Mino, his eyes fixed on Christine and I.759Please respect copyright.PENANA5R3PeWlJGx
"Just magnificent," said Seungyoon.759Please respect copyright.PENANAvB4FaA8Ly6
"Thanks," Christine and I replied at the same time.759Please respect copyright.PENANAXaucAvWpJI
"You're all just smoking hot," said Seunghoon. His eyes then fully rested on me. "Especially you, Sam."759Please respect copyright.PENANAgxTLc7lMv9
I wanted to frown at him759Please respect copyright.PENANAiS655BmzcV
but I ended up blushing instead. He smiled at me and winked. At that 759Please respect copyright.PENANAtDX6MOXAJF
moment, I felt like my heart was about to explode.759Please respect copyright.PENANA6Phg5dg1gX
"I think Christine also looks really nice," said Jinwoo with a smile.759Please respect copyright.PENANAPSRzRRQ41s
I looked at Jinwoo and I759Please respect copyright.PENANAxe5u6jLoRW
couldn't help but notice that smile on his face. I accidentally smiled 759Please respect copyright.PENANAhJGPgRMTM0
at him and then at Christine. Mike who stood beside her looked at me 759Please respect copyright.PENANAECC8pS9Aoo
with an eyebrow raised. I quickly looked away.759Please respect copyright.PENANA0LW6w7FBUS
"Thanks," said Christine, as she blushed.759Please respect copyright.PENANAdeFyQghwhp
"Where is Zoey?" Seungyoon asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANALJgIOqbTwa
"Making herself look like a barbie doll," said Daniel.759Please respect copyright.PENANAxQF0Tvyw7p
"Ya, that's how I would put it," I said with a smirk. "And she's taking forever. She should be here by now."759Please respect copyright.PENANAfIG3wf3Zqj
"Want to go and check up on her?" Mino asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANA4q7aBSJnQd
"Good idea. Let's go."759Please respect copyright.PENANAojhLtm06LV
"You're going with Mino?" Seunghoon asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANAVxkkhZ06aK
"Do you have a problem with that?" I asked as I dropped my gym bag to the floor and folded my arms.759Please respect copyright.PENANAkzksBbjDVt
Before he could say 759Please respect copyright.PENANAtuLXu28ca2
anything, I quickly turned around and started to walk out of the room. I759Please respect copyright.PENANAppCbiGyC8S
heard footsteps behind me and I could tell it was Mino. When we stepped759Please respect copyright.PENANAWM5J6d0gea
out of the room, he was snickering.759Please respect copyright.PENANAGzxtqlCOKu
"You really put him in his place, didn't you?" Mino asked as we walked down the hall.759Please respect copyright.PENANAeMOJV0qRbl
"Just because I'm his 759Please respect copyright.PENANAdJfhPcJMI0
bias doesn't mean he could follow me around," I said. "I mean, him being759Please respect copyright.PENANA0YoxTFZxBO
in my closet last night was more than enough, don't you think?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAg2UQDLUJms
"Ya, trying to hide in your closet was a pretty big surprise."759Please respect copyright.PENANAvTf7LtHLTb
"And you all helped him with it. How did you manage to get on our floor and trip the hotel lights anyway?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAFU0L09dajW
"Actually, it was only 759Please respect copyright.PENANAgXIhs5rekH
just your floor that we tripped the lights on. And if it came to coming 759Please respect copyright.PENANAXg4JBXOUPZ
to your floor, we pulled a few strings."759Please respect copyright.PENANAW8lema1seQ
"How can I forget. You're WINNER." I rolled my eyes.759Please respect copyright.PENANAFqVdkMFZcC
Mino laughed and I heard him mutter, "cute." I pretended I never heard that and raised the corner of my lips to a smile.759Please respect copyright.PENANAuKJIoCRWSu
When we got to the 759Please respect copyright.PENANAJZnGUlTSit
elevator, I was just about to push the elevator button when the doors 759Please respect copyright.PENANA1k3m85KeNM
suddenly flew open. My jaw dropped when I saw who was standing right 759Please respect copyright.PENANAv9vSPKrocm
inside the elevator.759Please respect copyright.PENANArhA5fEtmuu
"You look really surprised to see me," said TOP, as he stepped out.759Please respect copyright.PENANAhmwSL9b5tq
"I....." I cleared my throat. "I haven't seen you in a while now."759Please respect copyright.PENANAanGVCSxzri
"Did you miss me?" he asked as he gave me that bad boy smile of his and stepped closer, giving me a hug.759Please respect copyright.PENANApOcfc7rLgz
"I did actually. I thought you might be busy with something these past days," I said as we broke away from each other.759Please respect copyright.PENANAafzGHyhb7W
"I was. And I see G-Dragon wasn't lying about what happened yesterday."759Please respect copyright.PENANANqME5uWY3i
TOP turned to look at Mino who gave him a salute. TOP smiled as his eyes flew back to me.759Please respect copyright.PENANAHaMz1XOHhp
"You know you're going get in so much trouble, right?" TOP asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANApfWjb427Ey
"We know," I said. "I managed to try and convince Collins for us to come here. We will be sneaking out very soon."759Please respect copyright.PENANAdTIVv0a45L
"Sneaking out together? Don't you think that's too risky. No one should even know that you've already met."759Please respect copyright.PENANAACymJQfWgl
"We came up with something," said Mino. "Don't you worry."759Please respect copyright.PENANAZhdp8exigV
"Well, if you're 759Please respect copyright.PENANAchKRA8V6CR
planning to sneak out, then you better do it fast." TOP had a smirk on 759Please respect copyright.PENANANhOVs6Lk6F
his face and I could tell something was up.759Please respect copyright.PENANACQ1G4RH3xg
"Wait a minute," I stopped TOP before he could say anything else. "Your manager is here, isn't he?"759Please respect copyright.PENANADupgtCG0Ph
"Did you just read my mind?" TOP asked. "I like that."759Please respect copyright.PENANA2lmrq9JIiS
"No, I read your body language." I put my palm over my forehead. "This is bad. Where is he?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAVxXROuJ6zc
"He's downstairs with some visitors," said TOP. "He plans on showing them around the place."759Please respect copyright.PENANA4L6eJfrY7D
"And if he sees us together he is going to freak out," said Mino.759Please respect copyright.PENANArbkWzAA13S
"What are you doing here anyway?" I asked TOP. "It's a Sunday."759Please respect copyright.PENANAwyJbnOfMd6
"I came to see you guys 759Please respect copyright.PENANAJdZuBVIKET
at the hotel and Lee told me you were here practising," TOP answered. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAJuFtjWXnWE
"Which you aren't doing at the moment."759Please respect copyright.PENANA7mwTySuxeu
"We were done minutes ago. Right now, we have to figure out how we are going to dodge your dear manager."759Please respect copyright.PENANAKSTkTLS4tY
"Ya, while you figure that out, they will be coming up any moment now."759Please respect copyright.PENANAPz5RGdJW2f
"Okay, then you go and 759Please respect copyright.PENANAVGJifYsfM5
tell the others not to leave," I instructed him. "I'll go down with Mino759Please respect copyright.PENANA8JLwDLmxAz
to get Zoey as fast as we could."759Please respect copyright.PENANAY4lpIakxWu
"I hate it when someone orders me around but I'll do it for you anyway," said TOP as he held my chin for a brief moment.759Please respect copyright.PENANAkAsPn4siEz
"Thanks," I said as I looked at Mino and he and I both went in the elevator.759Please respect copyright.PENANAZFF6O4z2Ry
We headed downstairs to 759Please respect copyright.PENANAWQsb55UJna
the shower room and just as we stepped out of the elevator, there was 759Please respect copyright.PENANAzTUMKt2bqC
Zoey in the hall, taking selfies with her phone.759Please respect copyright.PENANAcgsHlT3rAh
"There you are," I said as we walked up to her. "What took you so long?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAzMU6dnTPVa
"Trying to look good," 759Please respect copyright.PENANAW24KXqpycm
said Zoey as she put her phone away in her gym bag. "Besides, I had to 759Please respect copyright.PENANAKn8iTSWiAc
take a few photos for my fans. They complain they haven't seen me in a 759Please respect copyright.PENANArn3I6hDgXA
while. What are you two doing here? I was just about to come up."759Please respect copyright.PENANAVWCWrJiJ0x
"Well, the worst is happening," said Mino.759Please respect copyright.PENANAAlACvFxC07
"Don't tell me Collins is here," said Zoey with a horrified look on her face.759Please respect copyright.PENANAeaDnEjEujs
"That's even a better guess," I said. "It's Yang Hyun-suk."759Please respect copyright.PENANAKRifCJ40nK
"You're kidding, right?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAKpqq9SzEH4
"No," said Mino. "TOP just told us he's here and he's not alone."759Please respect copyright.PENANAW4a3gMYoEn
"This isn't good," said Zoey. "What are we going to do?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAdTRXdHVr4S
"He shouldn't see The Toxins with WINNER," I said. "That's what we have to do. Come on, let's go before he gets here."759Please respect copyright.PENANAeoXc2AowBi
Just as I turned around 759Please respect copyright.PENANAFoABG589zK
to head back to the elevator, I saw the elevator monitor show that 759Please respect copyright.PENANAtQNdAQSgty
someone or some people were coming up the elevator and had stopped on 759Please respect copyright.PENANA80HZ6FOAuv
the the floor we were on.759Please respect copyright.PENANAX79sJn50mA
"Quick, let's go the other way," I said, quickly turning around and rushing down the hall before the elevator doors could open.759Please respect copyright.PENANANT9108AVO5
Just as we turned round a759Please respect copyright.PENANAUHUADqajtw
corner, near the women's shower room was a door. I quickly opened it. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAWPz7fHnOVE
It was a janitor's closet. I let the other two go in before I did. I 759Please respect copyright.PENANAI5SBniq6iN
heard voices coming down the hall from the elevator and I silently 759Please respect copyright.PENANAT73aCWg0N1
closed the door. The room was soon covered in darkness.759Please respect copyright.PENANANfg7ypoPvo
"What are we doing in here?" Zoey asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANAgz5pJbch4u
"Ssh, keep your voice down," I whispered.759Please respect copyright.PENANAxQ1DH51BvW
"Fine," she whispered. "What are we doing in here?"759Please respect copyright.PENANA2nmxR8wewP
"What do you think we're doing? Hiding from Yang Hyun-suk."759Please respect copyright.PENANAdqxIUj2OFW
"Are you sure it's him coming out of that elevator?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAuTyLgN8tmB
I didn't say anything as759Please respect copyright.PENANARliRwaWZFM
we all listened quietly and heard voices and footsteps coming down the 759Please respect copyright.PENANAdzp0Kc94VG
hall. The people bypassed the door and I could clearly hear Yang 759Please respect copyright.PENANAje9W6pwhxY
Hyun-suk's voice.759Please respect copyright.PENANApHiY3Zts1H
Gosh, I muttered in my head. If I hadn't thought of hiding when I saw the elevator monitor, we would have been in so much trouble.759Please respect copyright.PENANAZqRJXzksaE
We heard the footsteps and voices start to fade as they went further down the hall.759Please respect copyright.PENANAYG8SAlsKJj
"What are we going to do now?" Mino whispered.759Please respect copyright.PENANAG8U9mEZQac
"And it's so dark in here," whispered Zoey.759Please respect copyright.PENANANGJoyB4FlQ
I checked around with my759Please respect copyright.PENANAHhRpGfam6q
hand on the wall for a switch. And when I found it, I flipped it and 759Please respect copyright.PENANAspAD2ogQAi
the light went on in the tiny room.759Please respect copyright.PENANAoLykOsfLsX
"Have they left?" Zoey asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANARsD1fj0RDp
I put my ear to the door and listened. I could still hear the faint murmuring of voices down the hall.759Please respect copyright.PENANAAbryTLig1f
I shook my head. "They are still there."759Please respect copyright.PENANAT8sTqHzwXQ
Mino and Zoey both 759Please respect copyright.PENANAHlGPBpwNlf
muttered in frustration. They were so impatient to get out of this tiny 759Please respect copyright.PENANAoopFIeyNiu
closet which was soon starting to get a bit uncomfortable. One thing I 759Please respect copyright.PENANAZhaCzzTqv9
don't like is closed spaces, not that I was claustrophobic. Right now, 759Please respect copyright.PENANAstxxl8ZeYi
we were so squeezed I was afraid I was going to drop in the bucket 759Please respect copyright.PENANAmhXNwiEoNq
behind me.759Please respect copyright.PENANAnNIw5bK80M
I leaned on the door to hear if they were still in the hall. I couldn't hear anything.759Please respect copyright.PENANAWTl0IjtcFa
"I think they are gone," I whispered.759Please respect copyright.PENANAGvxJErWwrK
"Try and check," Mino whispered.759Please respect copyright.PENANAEKCIglsVlQ
I took hold of the door 759Please respect copyright.PENANAqApLAXnMbb
knob and slowly turned it. When it opened, I slowly and carefully swung 759Please respect copyright.PENANAhpb8kpbGyl
the door open so that it wouldn't make any noise. I poked my head out of759Please respect copyright.PENANAkmlIVWIKOh
the room and looked left and right. The hall was clear.759Please respect copyright.PENANAMGgjHD2Ns7
"Come on," I said to the others as I swung the door wide open.759Please respect copyright.PENANAp7O3ngL1fZ
I stepped out of the janitor's room and Mino and Zoey followed. I slowly closed the door.759Please respect copyright.PENANAdeno7ioNQE
"It looks like they went towards the men's shower room," said Mino as he looked down the hall.759Please respect copyright.PENANAHVvBTjYXdL
"That gives us enough time to use the elevator and head upstairs," I said.759Please respect copyright.PENANAEozjK09KIW
The three of us were 759Please respect copyright.PENANAUbTtjskfOZ
quickly running down the hall towards the elevator when Zoey's phone 759Please respect copyright.PENANABfmHn8RunO
rang in her gym bag. And as if by coincidence, Yang Hyun-suk's voice was759Please respect copyright.PENANAD8FlWfh82F
heard down the hall. They were coming back our way and had probably 759Please respect copyright.PENANAxVxVbjhVDu
heard the phone ring.759Please respect copyright.PENANAAKGSOLDWeU
"What are we going to do?" Zoey asked as she panicked looking for her phone in her bag.759Please respect copyright.PENANA7SQk9KTtCn
I quickly took the bag 759Please respect copyright.PENANAc7itebfJML
strap from her shoulder and said, "he's heard us now, you two go back 759Please respect copyright.PENANAlbUKHTvvi4
upstairs and get the others out while I distract him for a while. And 759Please respect copyright.PENANADLkePvFFA1
you should figure a way to get out of the building before he notices 759Please respect copyright.PENANAv25nlPGxRw
anything strange."759Please respect copyright.PENANAe7yVtpdhfv
"You want us to leave you here?" Mino asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANAeFzSd3XYiJ
"Just go, I'll buy you time. And don't use the elevator when you come down, take the stairs."759Please respect copyright.PENANAGl1tQf1DLb
Mino and Zoey quickly 759Please respect copyright.PENANA0qw4MnirFE
ran for the elevator and got in just in time before Yang Hyun-suk 759Please respect copyright.PENANAoi2wNNaoAK
appeared round the corner with other people behind him. Two men and a 759Please respect copyright.PENANAKuEi06o45i
lady. Zoey's phone was still ringing in her bag and I was looking for 759Please respect copyright.PENANAQ51DNuTNVG
it. When I finally retrieved it, I quickly looked at the caller ID. It 759Please respect copyright.PENANAnVFCFrikH6
was Christine. I cut the line immediately.759Please respect copyright.PENANA995csLYVM3
"I was wondering who was down here," said Yang Hyun-suk as he with his visitors approached me. "Nice to see you, Sam."759Please respect copyright.PENANAY3ynmQiJSc
I quickly bowed to Yang Hyun-suk and to the visitors.759Please respect copyright.PENANAXfafBzk8gz
A woman who was with them said, "I see you've grown into the Korean culture pretty quickly. I've to say I'm really impressed."759Please respect copyright.PENANAoEkIHUTMNa
I gave them a little 759Please respect copyright.PENANAIAVKaGrtXz
smile while the other two men happily agreed. Yang Hyun-suk soon 759Please respect copyright.PENANAJh8NegupqO
introduced them to me as the Chinese Internationals who had come to see 759Please respect copyright.PENANAsQS5Xi7RpZ
the place.759Please respect copyright.PENANAbHzAzv0taP
"I see that you're done practising," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Where are the others?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAzDGvP0QeR5
"Yes, they are waiting for me downstairs," I replied.759Please respect copyright.PENANA4cj1nBBNs3
"I must say, I watched 759Please respect copyright.PENANAXJzwRR7ss0
your stunning performance you did with BigBang at the Arts Centre a few 759Please respect copyright.PENANAYAlOKJ4kdG
days ago," said the slim looking Chinese man, who wore glasses and a 759Please respect copyright.PENANA4bkzYq5ZVj
black suit.759Please respect copyright.PENANAXeQgQ4nNea
"Gomawoyo (고마워요) (Thank you)," I said as I bowed my head.759Please respect copyright.PENANAX4ATcsh09y
"You really do have good manners," said other man.759Please respect copyright.PENANA4Rc0vx2tD7
"Yang Hyun-suk wasn't joking when he said that you're fast learner," said the lady giving me a smile.759Please respect copyright.PENANAT2A1cvZb11
"I always do my best," I said politely.759Please respect copyright.PENANAQdkrgMIOJh
"I would really have liked it if you and your grou could perform for us," said the man in glasses.759Please respect copyright.PENANA0aTJanjbdC
I felt my eyes were 759Please respect copyright.PENANAUwOEr0HKY0
about to fall out of their sockets but I tried my best not to act 759Please respect copyright.PENANAzFQT7C9R86
surprised. All this just got a whole lot worse. What was I going to do 759Please respect copyright.PENANADJfxtTqBLw
now? I couldn't call the others to head back to the dance studio. I bet 759Please respect copyright.PENANA5LYCKscBx0
as I'm thinking right now, they are probably heading down the stairs.759Please respect copyright.PENANAQL6wPmpuiK
"That will be great," I said with enthusiasm. "I'll just call the others to head back to the......"759Please respect copyright.PENANAGnWIXuIgpb
Yang Hyun-suk stopped me759Please respect copyright.PENANAcF37PZfFoq
before I could say anything more. "No, I bet you guys are tired. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAnbbYhqkXYl
Collins told me you were going back to the old routine, are you not?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAbtrtuRcAn1
I didn't know where this was going but I was feeling relieved at the moment. "Yes," I replied as I nodded my head.759Please respect copyright.PENANAxYrMFgHbxa
"Since you haven't done so in a while, I bet you're really tired or you would have practised even longer. Maybe next time."759Please respect copyright.PENANAiDTbifRNdl
Phew! That was close. He has no idea how he just saved my life from his very own wrath. I was eternally grateful.759Please respect copyright.PENANAjV4MRnXX56
"Yes, maybe next time," said the man in glasses.759Please respect copyright.PENANATngxSoSVqH
"Well, if you will excuse us, Sam," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We have places to be."759Please respect copyright.PENANAA5gwpGMH5l
I smiled as I bowed my 759Please respect copyright.PENANA9SxnJQHPFT
head and I made way for the manager and his visitors to pass to head to 759Please respect copyright.PENANA0CmVOUunjD
the elevator. I was so relieved after they got in and the doors closed 759Please respect copyright.PENANAJvrNcDQ7Pd
shut before them. I held my beating heart. I hadn't realised how scared I759Please respect copyright.PENANA2ytfI1jclZ
was until now.759Please respect copyright.PENANAJeJ2X63WBb
I quickly ran to the 759Please respect copyright.PENANAAiwE1Y8dGY
other end of the hall by passing the girl's shower room, turning a 759Please respect copyright.PENANA18CCK7T2hZ
corner and heading to the flight of stairs right after the men's shower 759Please respect copyright.PENANAC4l3v1E8i6
room. Just as I was about to descend the stairs, I heard voices and 759Please respect copyright.PENANAcurMgpD5u2
footsteps above me. I looked up and I saw the people I was expecting to 759Please respect copyright.PENANADBReBpK1sH
see.759Please respect copyright.PENANAmsU5zvkkQB
"Sam! You're okay," said Seunghoon as he was the first one to quickly rush down and reach me. He pulled me into a hug.759Please respect copyright.PENANArFI2VsTlbk
"I wasn't being a chased by a lion, you know?" I said as I broke away from him. "I'm fine."759Please respect copyright.PENANAkNgitrKVPm
"I told you she can handle herself with your manager," said Zoey as she came down the downstairs with the rest.759Please respect copyright.PENANAgN00srys1M
"I had no doubt about that in my mind," said Seunghoon.759Please respect copyright.PENANAA4XAKPNpxj
"Then why did you hug me?" I asked shrugging my shoulders.759Please respect copyright.PENANAZt7VF1Y7pn
"Because I missed you."759Please respect copyright.PENANA8vj3s8axgY
I rolled my eyes and said nothing.759Please respect copyright.PENANAKeovIJyHn0
"Well, we all better get going or else you might just meet them again," said TOP.759Please respect copyright.PENANAd750jtFRk6
We all started to rush down the stairs, as if we were being chased by Yang Hyun-suk himself.759Please respect copyright.PENANAym7O88bPrP
When we reached the 759Please respect copyright.PENANAGQKr2XqM3L
bottom of the stairs, we were faced with a new problem. We all couldn't 759Please respect copyright.PENANAlDUhWo7kqf
walk out through the main door because the receptionist was in the 759Please respect copyright.PENANA1tfcC6raiJ
lobby.759Please respect copyright.PENANA5iUjuaNYZN
I was leaning on the wall of the entry way and taking a peak at the receptionist who was working on the computer.759Please respect copyright.PENANAp3VPj6CFKO
"I think I've an idea," I759Please respect copyright.PENANAwnh9g64wHJ
said as I turned to the others waiting in the hall. "One group is going759Please respect copyright.PENANARe1ASW1kxD
to head out through the main entrance and the other will take the 759Please respect copyright.PENANAEjDrBKshyg
emergency exit door right down at the end of the hall."759Please respect copyright.PENANAnvwijPBjfZ
"How do you know there is an emergency exit door back there?" Mino asked as he pointed down the hall.759Please respect copyright.PENANAr9xf43kaAm
I rolled my eyes. I 759Please respect copyright.PENANAjVsffmJjd8
couldn't start explaining that I once used that door to sneak out myself759Please respect copyright.PENANAk3fDdbmHTv
due to some serious circumstances. When I mean that, I mean the 759Please respect copyright.PENANAFHhb7p2w65
situation that happened with Zoey and the diamond smuggler.759Please respect copyright.PENANAmQ09rqd3Bo
"Because I'm smart 759Please respect copyright.PENANAra9ksZXWeF
enough to know that there is one," I answered. "Don't all buildings such759Please respect copyright.PENANArzBXmXRIGb
as this one supposed to have an emergency exit?"759Please respect copyright.PENANA6b98rtIWz2
Mino and TOP smiled at 759Please respect copyright.PENANAi4AB2yuE1n
me, that I couldn't tell if they were impressed that I was smart enough 759Please respect copyright.PENANATWdCVRwlmS
to guess or that I already knew about the door. I brushed that thought 759Please respect copyright.PENANAtFsqmT48p7
away and tried to focus on the mission of getting out of here.759Please respect copyright.PENANALUPdM2QYwj
"We will take the back door," said Seungyoon. "Sam and the others will take the front."759Please respect copyright.PENANAE5ejEzc67t
"Why do we get the back door?" Mino asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANAD2LNLmqfIf
"If we don't take the 759Please respect copyright.PENANAitexSpuJC1
front and Yang Hyun-suk asks the receptionist if we left, it's going to 759Please respect copyright.PENANAPe9M2K7cca
raise suspicion," I said. "He knows The Toxins are here and not WINNER."759Please respect copyright.PENANA6urNPHYJdk
"Well, you do make a good point," said Seunghoon.759Please respect copyright.PENANA1AZ7lirFL0
"She always does," said Christine and Daniel at the same time.759Please respect copyright.PENANAyqnuXDNCyQ
"You guys go right now 759Please respect copyright.PENANAxjRhlNzBSL
and then we will come soon afterwards and meet you outside the gate," I 759Please respect copyright.PENANAA7lCnpnMVC
said. "TOP, you're coming with me and the Toxins."759Please respect copyright.PENANAShp20VJzqc
"May I know why?" he asked with an eyebrow raised.759Please respect copyright.PENANA5otHLQCbbk
"Because I need you around."759Please respect copyright.PENANALXOH03iTsj
He smiled and I turned away before he could say anything more.759Please respect copyright.PENANAZRB4zW6WHU
Seungyoon and his group 759Please respect copyright.PENANA4KQ1D4OCgO
started their way down the hall and went out through the exit door. I 759Please respect copyright.PENANAXUtSLqfvq0
checked Zoey's phone which I still had in my hand and decided to wait 759Please respect copyright.PENANA9ggzoqjGF1
for ten minutes.759Please respect copyright.PENANApDTkGQRz0K
"How long do we have to stay here?" Mike asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANAOgZCIndS2t
"A good ten minutes," I said as I checked the time on the phone again.759Please respect copyright.PENANAdQipeOZ4K6
"These ten minutes will feel like forever," said Zoey with an annoying look on her face.759Please respect copyright.PENANAaowR5YueUv
"That is why patience pays," said Christine.759Please respect copyright.PENANAprCa4fvgB1
"So if you guys are 759Please respect copyright.PENANAXDn0daxPKt
going to hang out with WINNER, how are you going to do that without 759Please respect copyright.PENANApXIn6yqRIA
drawing attention to yourselves?" TOP asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANA4yMlknawWH
"Why do you ask?" I asked.759Please respect copyright.PENANA3Rld1lhVuv
"You guys can't just 759Please respect copyright.PENANA3npHJ9PwVL
walk around the streets and expect no one to notice that WINNER and The 759Please respect copyright.PENANAZUpmFvR05P
Toxins are hanging out. Your fans will take pictures and that way, our 759Please respect copyright.PENANAJelowsZCno
managers will find out what's going on."759Please respect copyright.PENANAwvs9RLhOCP
I smiled and checked the time again. It was close to five minutes. I looked up at TOP.759Please respect copyright.PENANAGRbCMbOJRo
"I'm not going to hide to the whole world that we are hanging out with WINNER," I answered.759Please respect copyright.PENANAsKvkjX2TZ9
"Huh?" TOP and the rest of my team turned to look at me with confused looks on their faces.759Please respect copyright.PENANA8qKQ6PukIM
"What the heck do you mean?" Mike asked. "We're going to get into so much trouble."759Please respect copyright.PENANAlxEHJVgnsi
"I know," I looked at the time. "Let's go. And act natural."759Please respect copyright.PENANANMlq67t9Mp
"Wait...Sam," TOP called out to me, but I had already turned around the corner, walking into the lobby.759Please respect copyright.PENANAv1fft8xWpF
The others quickly 759Please respect copyright.PENANAtqPgLPFTkb
followed behind me and their way of acting natural was so surreal, as 759Please respect copyright.PENANAO3icpupBAt
they entered the lobby laughing as if someone had just cracked a joke. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAiw5JpQ5iZO
That caught the receptionist's attention that I had to look behind me 759Please respect copyright.PENANAOql3kKxyw3
worried that they might have hit their heads.759Please respect copyright.PENANANcWphwDeCT
"Are you all okay?" I asked as I stopped and looked at them.759Please respect copyright.PENANAaVj5UAAI8t
"Of course we are," said Zoey a little too loud, it was annoying. "Mike just cracked a funny joke."759Please respect copyright.PENANAlXEjALeq42
"I cracked a funny joke?" Mike whispered, looking pretty confused.759Please respect copyright.PENANAekcZvSDUro
"Zoey doesn't even consider you funny," said Daniel as he smiled.759Please respect copyright.PENANAXzaniA2XCW
"Now that's funny," said Christine as she also smiled.759Please respect copyright.PENANAaXNDQV0Dz1
"Not to me," I said as I rolled my eyes. "Can we just go?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAkDBWtclWbV
As soon as I turned 759Please respect copyright.PENANAtWPIeFlIti
around to continue heading out the main doors, the elevator doors to the759Please respect copyright.PENANAB4qafDvvHu
the side of the lobby soon flew open and for a moment, I paused as I 759Please respect copyright.PENANA0rX9piPcK5
thought it was Yang Hyun-suk with his Chinese visitors. Even the others 759Please respect copyright.PENANALZfM0Szqia
behind me paused ready for the worst.759Please respect copyright.PENANAZP0pmtHtLd
When the people in the elevator stepped out, the world before me stood still and I felt like dropping to the floor.759Please respect copyright.PENANA66DVGb8SJ8
My brother Mike who stood beside me had his mouth wide open and said, "OMG, it's them."759Please respect copyright.PENANAOmvqSOJ6If
"Well, this day just got759Please respect copyright.PENANAsUGWlaE8WM
a whole lot worse," said TOP and he didn't sound too enthusiastic about759Please respect copyright.PENANAJkFZXfsXfM
it. I couldn't blame him for that.759Please respect copyright.PENANAMEHo8dMwFK
Coming out of the 759Please respect copyright.PENANAzbKlbi5SbK
elevator was none other than YG's own female k-pop group, Black Pink. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAH3SpHr1JRu
And when they saw us standing there like statues, they also stopped on 759Please respect copyright.PENANAgx5eppK8Iq
their tracks and they were also as surprised as we were.759Please respect copyright.PENANAtX4OlrTLKg
I felt like I had stood 759Please respect copyright.PENANA4OkYiksCmy
still forever that my feet hurt. Zoey who stood on my other side, nudged759Please respect copyright.PENANAvxtWYA8LB3
me on the shoulder to get my attention.759Please respect copyright.PENANA369rs4lKBH
"Sam? Is it me or did our day just get a whole lot complicated?" she asked, her eyes fixed on Black Pink.759Please respect copyright.PENANA5slM1dupWt
I gulped and nodded my head. "Yep," I replied.759Please respect copyright.PENANAYTvaozVJ97
