“It’s just a sprain that will heal in a day or two,” said the handsome, male Korean doctor who wore a causal blue golf shirt with white chinos and matching white canvas. Anyone who would see him now wouldn’t think twice that he is a medical doctor. “If she doesn’t strain herself too much, she’ll be fine.”188Please respect copyright.PENANASbN8nE3XuN

“That’s good news,” said Collins feeling relieved as he turned to look at Christine who sat on the couch, with a foot on a foot supporter in front of her. She looked at him with a stoic look on her face. “Luckily, it’s nothing serious.”188Please respect copyright.PENANARiQ3t9BPQE
188Please respect copyright.PENANAn7VTLOCaov
188Please respect copyright.PENANAEp4hBb583z
“I told you I’m fine,” said Christine. Collins gave her a look that told her to be quiet. Christine read it and quickly looked up at the ceiling like she hadn’t said anything.188Please respect copyright.PENANA6pBPhgWXPi

Before the doctor and Lee could turn around to leave the lounge, Daniel and I quickly left our spot at the entrance of the lounge and silently ran down the hall, and entered one of the rooms with the door slightly open to peak in the hall. Mike and Zoey who hid on the other side pretended as if they were approaching the elevator, looking occupied with phones in their hands.188Please respect copyright.PENANAxosP4VNmQv
188Please respect copyright.PENANAnOJzn1BjaM
188Please respect copyright.PENANAriF46f6T84
Lee and the doctor soon appeared in the hall, heading for the elevator and bypassing Zoey and Mike who said goodbye as Lee and the doctor entered the elevator.

For those of us who stood at the door of lounge, we moved aside for Collins to pass as he went down the hall to his room. In turn, we entered the lounge. Zoey and I went to sit on either side of Christine, while the boys went to sit on the other couch.188Please respect copyright.PENANA7ZRGU083xd

“But if we keep on doing that, they will get even more upset,” I said. I turned to look at Christine. “How’s your foot? Do you need help standing up?”188Please respect copyright.PENANAzwqj8o3flE
188Please respect copyright.PENANAx6w47E0CAp
188Please respect copyright.PENANAizKtz6X30g
“No, I'm good,” said Christine. She put her foot on the foot stand on to the floor, then she slowly tried to stand on her own. She did so with little effort. “I’ll manage.” She smiled brightly.188Please respect copyright.PENANAwWN8tyDLXL

In ten minutes, we were already downstairs in the cars arranged for us. The five of us Toxins, Lee and Collins were in one car while the security detail were in two other cars behind us. Collins wasn’t joking when he said they will work on security. Hopefully, it won’t be too obvious to the fans or the paparazzi, especially the paparazzi.188Please respect copyright.PENANAtgNYwHGTE5

“Do you think Johnny will have a chance to get near us?” Daniel asked as he looked out the window, watching the people and the buildings as the car drove through town.188Please respect copyright.PENANAdQjAwZCbCa

188Please respect copyright.PENANADA1KuZq1YK
188Please respect copyright.PENANASqpjLsLpRt
“Lee’s right,” said Collins. “The issue with Jehan wasn’t supposed to happen, but it did because we didn’t take a whiff of what’s going on. We let it slide, but this time around, I don’t want any of your silly plans taking course. Is that clear?”188Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7aziZsYPh
188Please respect copyright.PENANAWhQEKlqdDS
188Please respect copyright.PENANARluhd6YcGy

188Please respect copyright.PENANA6z0apJNxkl
The five of us Toxins gave each other looks. He's obviously talking about Johnny.188Please respect copyright.PENANAf3Z3s6wp9P

"I'm glad you aren't hurt," said Lisa. "You should be more careful when you go to such places."188Please respect copyright.PENANAbJRQprhg73
188Please respect copyright.PENANA87npAG0iLP
188Please respect copyright.PENANAh99zYT7AbN
GD chuckled. "Thanks, I will. You take care. Oh, wait, aren't you supposed to meet with the others for the album and listen to the new song right now?"188Please respect copyright.PENANArJ35Naobig
188Please respect copyright.PENANA4pm9yehGcQ
188Please respect copyright.PENANACLWtgh1xMg
"Yep. Just waiting on the managers and Bang Yong-guk to show up."188Please respect copyright.PENANA2MRs1sn2it
188Please respect copyright.PENANAT9qIPlviCT
188Please respect copyright.PENANARhIRlN6Z0n

188Please respect copyright.PENANAqhJTDv6vzo
188Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2Anx3KFHF
"I'll pass on the message. Thanks, you take care. Bye."188Please respect copyright.PENANAUOpbkoTcIG
188Please respect copyright.PENANAzVQkuIphrP
188Please respect copyright.PENANAVHeYWgUjkA
Lisa quickly cut the call. Zoey suddenly burst out saying:188Please respect copyright.PENANA8OEoCV4MFX
188Please respect copyright.PENANAnFkmMIPScN
188Please respect copyright.PENANAO6HUA81GqR
"Wow, that's so typical of him. He even went to have fun with Johnny after the stunt he pulled?!"188Please respect copyright.PENANAVLWfWKnsIP
188Please respect copyright.PENANAN2CNctahqj
188Please respect copyright.PENANAbf9sWjm1wp
"I'm glad you didn't burst out like that when Lisa was talking to him," said Mino as he nervously chuckled.188Please respect copyright.PENANANeaBLATtKK
188Please respect copyright.PENANALW1kkfBNpI
188Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9Wq3MC2lq
"Like she said, she wasn't going to do anything stupid," said Mike. "Until now."188Please respect copyright.PENANAFG3QnTuLQx
188Please respect copyright.PENANArteAzC5aOR
188Please respect copyright.PENANA5GMrGdmAsG
"Hey!" Zoey gave Mike a look.188Please respect copyright.PENANA0usPEuX9tq
188Please respect copyright.PENANAZCAvdlRkSR
188Please respect copyright.PENANAY8zdgtHIs5
"Oh, no, not here," I said. "Can we've your wrestling match later?"188Please respect copyright.PENANAA1L6c3di5Q
188Please respect copyright.PENANANKF0My7Bmm
188Please respect copyright.PENANAwKQHQvus9G
"I would like to see them fight," said Mino.188Please respect copyright.PENANANrfiuKlibL
188Please respect copyright.PENANAxYr4YlW0xZ
188Please respect copyright.PENANA7MUQ6gHdsc
"Trust me, you don't want to," said Daniel.188Please respect copyright.PENANAmXZPJXwxRe
188Please respect copyright.PENANAFkHihRBU5j
188Please respect copyright.PENANAnGzjMiryrc
There came a knock at the door. We told the person to come in. It's Lee, and she came in with someone: Bang Yong-guk.188Please respect copyright.PENANAliVQOJlFec
188Please respect copyright.PENANAApjMf0kFXK
188Please respect copyright.PENANAG7TD9oUjPZ
"Yong-guk, you're here!" Zoey exclaimed as she shot up from her seat and went straight for him.188Please respect copyright.PENANA5EVRWbt20A
188Please respect copyright.PENANAeziodCg7Ai
188Please respect copyright.PENANASZzpzYiZS8
"Hey, Zoey," Yong-guk nervously greeted her, stepping back a little so that he wouldn't bump into her.188Please respect copyright.PENANAkfs3Xi6VWy
188Please respect copyright.PENANAy6zJpvXguW
188Please respect copyright.PENANAKHhJjKRAp1
"Well, you're rather jumpy today," said Lee as she looked at Zoey with an eyebrow raised.188Please respect copyright.PENANAKqAan4AM5Q
188Please respect copyright.PENANAEXbDZkyWFm
188Please respect copyright.PENANABD1SGUYM2R
"You should've seen her when we were talking about G-Dragon just now," said Seungyoon. "She looked like she would punch someone."188Please respect copyright.PENANAkptUO9EChP
188Please respect copyright.PENANA7cWIIPVMkJ
188Please respect copyright.PENANAdCS3j8nnZF
"Hi, Yong-guk," I said as I stood up from my seat and also approached. "For a second there I thought you weren't coming."188Please respect copyright.PENANAh1EWHKiSy9
188Please respect copyright.PENANAcM0t0k8Hso
188Please respect copyright.PENANAKRvlvgcgy9
"I wouldn't want to miss this day for the world," he said with a smile.188Please respect copyright.PENANA1bQGABRMQA
188Please respect copyright.PENANASoGoz92d9p
188Please respect copyright.PENANAz1SuPKh6MF
I felt someone quickly rush up to me standing by my side. And in the process, pushing me a little. I held my ground so that I wouldn't find myself falling over.188Please respect copyright.PENANAVF5gRHZA9O
188Please respect copyright.PENANA13ZLI5ALpE
188Please respect copyright.PENANArDIHlC819u
"Hello," Seunghoon greeted Yong-guk in Korean. I raised an eyebrow as I realised that he had his arm around my neck. I didn't want to admit what I'm seeing, but it couldn't be helped. Was he trying to mark his territory when he didn't have one?188Please respect copyright.PENANAmZAm9wQp9J
188Please respect copyright.PENANAawVGORiJly
188Please respect copyright.PENANAoF0ypI5sUc
Yong-guk greeted him back and by the look on his face, he didn’t seem intimidated by Seunghoon at all.188Please respect copyright.PENANA25xuoOpcu1
188Please respect copyright.PENANAqMKWzeOS4t
188Please respect copyright.PENANAOEeTajma6R
Everyone else came over to greet Yong-guk. Lee told us to settle down for the managers and the music producer assigned to help with our album will be arriving any time soon. We did likewise. And members from both Blackpink and WINNER couldn’t help but ask Bang Yong-guk some questions about the song.188Please respect copyright.PENANAm9fTvPeAGm
188Please respect copyright.PENANAPmZHIdvRu0
188Please respect copyright.PENANAEdlrZXyynf
"The song is going to be great, right?" Jisoo asked.188Please respect copyright.PENANAisd473NMmV
188Please respect copyright.PENANAziRWXra2ND
188Please respect copyright.PENANAcy2dNbYU4j
"I just want to ask how you were able to come up with your amazing songs," said Mino.188Please respect copyright.PENANA4FfOe6xmWo
188Please respect copyright.PENANAJDAF0pDbPJ
188Please respect copyright.PENANALdd2PzdulQ
"One at a time, people," I told them. I sat in between Yong-guk and Seunghoon, and boy did it feel uncomfortable.188Please respect copyright.PENANADHuxuims0s
188Please respect copyright.PENANAowC0ylQBgE
188Please respect copyright.PENANADG7c4t4HzV
Yong-guk chuckled. "I don’t mind at all," he said.188Please respect copyright.PENANA3LhSkO4tOE
188Please respect copyright.PENANAbNWUf8RUEQ
188Please respect copyright.PENANAgLhxyI6SQB
"You don’t have to worry about him," said Seunghoon as he leaned in a little closer on my shoulder. "He can take care of himself."188Please respect copyright.PENANA381pFA9rBi
188Please respect copyright.PENANAaHHQt01vP6
188Please respect copyright.PENANAnr3iwAxYiR
I rolled my eyes at him and he gave me that cute boyish smile. I couldn’t hold my laugh.188Please respect copyright.PENANAHtGkzlf7ML
188Please respect copyright.PENANA5x7u4hZlD3
188Please respect copyright.PENANAbRui4QPLN8
"Do you've the track with you?" Lisa asked. "Maybe we can listen to it a little before the managers get here."188Please respect copyright.PENANA7TZnLhcOBm
188Please respect copyright.PENANANPPj5TrdlD
188Please respect copyright.PENANAnIXno8frct
"Not when I’m around," said Lee who stood in the corner of the room. For a minute there we forgot that she is still around.188Please respect copyright.PENANABJgXqdDpxg
188Please respect copyright.PENANAI8pkui7qu1
188Please respect copyright.PENANADKj7D3qkQj
"Oh, we didn’t know you were still around," said Rosé as she nervously chuckled.188Please respect copyright.PENANATOo5wpCpRb
188Please respect copyright.PENANA5byzRIOcwg
188Please respect copyright.PENANAB2oR8bW0tL
"Well, I’ve been told to watch over you," said Lee. "You might do something funny like you were about to just now."188Please respect copyright.PENANAZvU9RJT8I9
188Please respect copyright.PENANAOgcsZOFrkw
188Please respect copyright.PENANAOLlP4xHzwh
"No we weren’t," said Zoey and Christine at the same time.188Please respect copyright.PENANAvB9FbEuQ0Z
188Please respect copyright.PENANA4XegzjbVgq
188Please respect copyright.PENANA50WCcGwgWZ
Lee gave them a look that made them stare at the floor. The managers better get here soon. I could tell just how anxious everyone is that they can’t wait to hear the song.188Please respect copyright.PENANAMNV6nh8Dni
188Please respect copyright.PENANAViIBEDzma1
188Please respect copyright.PENANAZxeLVjfAK1
"They will be here soon, so I don’t understand why you’re impatient," said Lee.188Please respect copyright.PENANAw2q1epbJsy
188Please respect copyright.PENANAprD6qocGu8
188Please respect copyright.PENANA1cUWTMh8Si
"I agree," said Yong-guk. "Let’s all just wait."188Please respect copyright.PENANA1zCldZqJnn
188Please respect copyright.PENANAmm3TQ3BDuD
188Please respect copyright.PENANAyiubRVury6
"They better be," said Jinwoo. "My ears are just itching to listen."188Please respect copyright.PENANA04EQub2zHc
188Please respect copyright.PENANAmkjm01XVg4
188Please respect copyright.PENANAtDz8e3pK8J
We didn’t have to wait any further as there came a knock at the door and Lee told whoever was there to come in. The two managers and a man who I think is the producer, walked into the room. We all stood up and bowed our heads.188Please respect copyright.PENANAGJngZseWSe
188Please respect copyright.PENANAvE3gNOtUlt
188Please respect copyright.PENANAWAH3ggS2JE
"Sit down everyone," Yang Hyun-suk instructed and we did likewise. "I see everyone is here. I’m also happy to welcome our visitor, Bang Yong-guk."188Please respect copyright.PENANAXTygCPATbc
188Please respect copyright.PENANArNpzpKAJ4b
188Please respect copyright.PENANA50yc2nxVru
Bang Yong-guk stood up from his seat and bowed to the managers and the producer. He also thanked them for inviting him to the studio. Yang Hyun-suk also introduced the man who stood beside Collins as the producer who will help out with the album.188Please respect copyright.PENANAaO7U1btm1W
188Please respect copyright.PENANA85wvXVXTTw
188Please respect copyright.PENANABwB57DVIGx
"Okay, without further ado, we can dive right to what we came here to do," said Yang Hyun-suk. He started to make his way to the console and the music booth.188Please respect copyright.PENANANlONP1x273
188Please respect copyright.PENANAv03sOMAJJM
188Please respect copyright.PENANAQiBkGFMCqz
When we stood up to follow the manager and the producer, I couldn’t help but stay still while the rest went on ahead. I didn’t even realise that Bang Yong-guk still stood beside me until he spoke.188Please respect copyright.PENANAwyX6dD4jHf
188Please respect copyright.PENANAVyPWqyoGej
188Please respect copyright.PENANAlasgQbXoJB
"Hey, you’re nervous?" he asked.188Please respect copyright.PENANALb4YUQEXqk
188Please respect copyright.PENANAtKlSoxbduu
188Please respect copyright.PENANAVimpXl9glh
I turned to look at him, surprised that he’s beside me. "Kind of," I said. "What if its not-?"188Please respect copyright.PENANAOKEwFFou4x
188Please respect copyright.PENANAJTu7ye15ty
188Please respect copyright.PENANAHbd1CeBjOe
He held my shoulders to turn me so I could look at him. I didn't expect him to be so close, and looking at him, straight on like this made me blush.188Please respect copyright.PENANA5hURahRHlT
188Please respect copyright.PENANALceu7GvWbp
188Please respect copyright.PENANAaxhiLGGArn
"Don't you trust me, Sam?" he asked.188Please respect copyright.PENANAgxkRtOfJYi
188Please respect copyright.PENANAlTBBafefFc
188Please respect copyright.PENANAtDqx7fi6qV
I didn’t expect him to ask such a question and I am left speechless. I cleared my throat to say:188Please respect copyright.PENANAOzgNu070d8
188Please respect copyright.PENANAaKKqn8OxaR
188Please respect copyright.PENANA6yZvChclOv
"Yes, I do."188Please respect copyright.PENANAs0GOvzSeRm
188Please respect copyright.PENANAL0fqzdoin6
188Please respect copyright.PENANAzDTQW3hYUG
He smiled at me and dropped his hands from my shoulders. He quickly held my hand.188Please respect copyright.PENANA5htXbKVt4y
188Please respect copyright.PENANAl41Dix4Hyf
188Please respect copyright.PENANAp9ZLSpWaHA
"Come on, let's go," he said as he dragged me along to join the others.188Please respect copyright.PENANAyUSmFZxgvk
188Please respect copyright.PENANAeFLVvxvZLQ
188Please respect copyright.PENANAabUFWiDZ7n
His warm hand around mine assured me that I shouldn't worry about what’s going to happen with the song. Even if the managers weren't going to like it, it's going to be okay.188Please respect copyright.PENANAIa3XTXnOxj
188Please respect copyright.PENANAUmxIbnCkCx
188Please respect copyright.PENANASMYI4WTXmh
I found myself smiling at him. I couldn't have found any better way to calm my thoughts.
