"Sam, hit me right now because I'm seeing Rosé and I feel like I'm dreaming," said Mike as he started to rub his eyes.copyright protection226PENANAkr5GPC0MrC230Please respect copyright.PENANAwULWzTWXAt
I rubbed his shoulder gently and then hit him so hard that he yelled.copyright protection226PENANAhZa4VhC7Wu230Please respect copyright.PENANA7l4PVd4yTR
"Ouch! What did you do that for?" Mike asked as he rubbed his shoulder and looked at me.copyright protection226PENANAmVSVd52LMn230Please respect copyright.PENANAEuJetTFnPQ
"Would you prefer I slapped you in the face instead?" I asked.copyright protection226PENANAMkmSFupaUm230Please respect copyright.PENANAM9Wr5Z7EmG
Rosé with the rest of BlackPink giggled at what happened. I looked at my brother and I could clearly see him blushing.copyright protection226PENANAyJieNEdV2m230Please respect copyright.PENANASHjB5GKhUO

"What agenda?" Christine asked.copyright protection226PENANArIDizUMSBT230Please respect copyright.PENANAkhQxfBBO5O
"You know," I said, 230Please respect copyright.PENANAkTcpsUtmrG
trying not to blurt out to BlackPink and the receptionist who was 230Please respect copyright.PENANAS5kCgyCvRp
looking at us that WINNER were waiting for us outside. "The agenda we 230Please respect copyright.PENANATvtTMBpKQW
made some time ago upstairs."copyright protection226PENANAq6k0NzAhhz230Please respect copyright.PENANAQdUPJ5SbRm
It was then that 230Please respect copyright.PENANAT39WhlmDWw
realisation hit The Toxins and they were all nodding their heads and 230Please respect copyright.PENANA3YoeRniAgY
saying things at the same time in agreement.copyright protection226PENANAr3BEfJIHVJ230Please respect copyright.PENANA2e1ghUpQgd
"I remember now," said Daniel. "Ya, we better get going."copyright protection226PENANAvBgUou73jh230Please respect copyright.PENANAtzyVd8lZ9Y
"Where are you all heading?" Lisa asked.copyright protection226PENANArTxWWA0ZvC230Please respect copyright.PENANAUHiskWFWMH
"Ummm, we were just 230Please respect copyright.PENANAgurwhml6qh

said Rosé as she pouted her lip and folded her arms. She looked like a 230Please respect copyright.PENANAtF8djRfZjB
cute angry little girl. "We get to meet you guys for the first time and 230Please respect copyright.PENANAEhPIfBiOzr
we don't get to hang out? That's pretty unfair, don't you think?"copyright protection226PENANAmhWilIGS7E230Please respect copyright.PENANAaHPCNom2SU
"So true," said Jisoo. "Why don't we all hang out?"copyright protection226PENANAP9dDerBLOO230Please respect copyright.PENANA53tQAOKvef
This just got tough. On 230Please respect copyright.PENANAxnLaqid0wY
one hand, we are trying to hide the fact that we already made plans to 230Please respect copyright.PENANAUGMkJzfG2i
hang out with WINNER and worse off, without Yang Hyun-suk's consent. And230Please respect copyright.PENANAIbGpjAnUkm
now, BlackPink also want to hang out with us, and "still" without their230Please respect copyright.PENANAmaw0ZN4kyw
manager's consent. I had to think of something.copyright protection226PENANAEGTk3v5EtK230Please respect copyright.PENANAxdMR45OPrY
I scratched my head. 230Please respect copyright.PENANAYbmYqIqmeu
"Mmm, to be honest, I'm not sure if your manager will like it that we 230Please respect copyright.PENANAkdaDHerMWL
are all hanging out. He would freak out, don't you agree?"copyright protection226PENANABvdLlAEQF9230Please respect copyright.PENANAfjTi10xO22
"Why?" Jennie asked. "It's not like you're dangerous to be around with, are you?"copyright protection226PENANAKRlkB3CJr7230Please respect copyright.PENANAv9iP3UVpdy
I rolled my eyes and muttered,"you've no idea."copyright protection226PENANA8nDSI6RwN4230Please respect copyright.PENANAXnBSTkM1RL
"Our manager clearly classifies us as dangerous," said Zoey.copyright protection226PENANAxoR34C0KUw230Please respect copyright.PENANAoWpRlY6Dyx
"Like we are weapons of ultimate destruction," said Daniel.copyright protection226PENANApaH31z3aWI230Please respect copyright.PENANAWQXCvbRisg
"He also calls us monkeys because we're too hard to handle," said Christine.copyright protection226PENANAwlTd15vCTR230Please respect copyright.PENANAewLekFsy37
"But just because he 230Please respect copyright.PENANAGIJdwrlpvY
calls us monkeys, doesn't mean we're weapons of destruction," said Mike.230Please respect copyright.PENANAPlxpbEMRHs
"We mess up, ya, but destruction is a different thing."copyright protection226PENANAlEjnMD1eQP230Please respect copyright.PENANAZ2lWFEHCgg

"Thank you." Mike smiled confidently.copyright protection226PENANAE3uDtLkkas230Please respect copyright.PENANAgwITuJK5TC
"Well, I would advise that you don't hang out with them," said TOP. "They are bad to be around with."copyright protection226PENANA9y94sesA79230Please respect copyright.PENANAtgvdwTFHBa
"That's not what Seungri230Please respect copyright.PENANA3JSmKgPTOp

with. So, we want to hang out with them too."copyright protection226PENANAqnXDvSGO1g230Please respect copyright.PENANAQw3nZxIyz1
I wanted to slap my face230Please respect copyright.PENANAK6dU72Qgkx
in annoyance but I ended up looking at TOP, giving him the eye. TOP 230Please respect copyright.PENANAHAHlJaRNFX
shrugged his shoulders knowing that I was blaming him for Seungri's 230Please respect copyright.PENANAmeI40OO8Xu
mess. Seungri had a big mouth, that's for sure.copyright protection226PENANAX7kteHeSUN230Please respect copyright.PENANAJoaQrKzl5K
"I think it will be a good idea to hang out," said Zoey. I looked at her.copyright protection226PENANABUuymCHu5c230Please respect copyright.PENANAfsMBejpuTg
"But, Zoey.....," she interrupted me before I could finish.copyright protection226PENANA9pOPJXdApO230Please respect copyright.PENANACy2f3xy30r
"Come on, Sam, think 230Please respect copyright.PENANAzN1pjfWVeb
about it," she said. "We don't know how long until we finally decide to 230Please respect copyright.PENANAzxkIGhyTKr
go back home and this might be the only time to hang out with BlackPink.230Please respect copyright.PENANAqqGPFiWtzq

"I also agree," he said finally.copyright protection226PENANAQtU9zKC4AK230Please respect copyright.PENANA7gRXvtDyNm
It looked like I had no 230Please respect copyright.PENANA8qxTfbj3K3
choice. WINNER were waiting for us outside and would probably be 230Please respect copyright.PENANAhhUvwJX2C3
wondering what's taking us so long. And also, Zoey did have a point. We 230Please respect copyright.PENANAcqoGzHuVvN
might never know when we will ever hang out with BlackPink.copyright protection226PENANAGnAqTkrcHE230Please respect copyright.PENANAGnOCggHzn0
"Fine, let's go," I said.copyright protection226PENANAVX9vN7fQsJ230Please respect copyright.PENANACXMMpFi6TJ
"Yes!" everyone 230Please respect copyright.PENANACxB9OeYjAQ
exclaimed so happily and I was soon huddled up with hugs from my group 230Please respect copyright.PENANA2LSw33WxPj
and surprisingly from BlackPink too. TOP stood there, looking on.copyright protection226PENANAoK6KYGcmyU230Please respect copyright.PENANA5ity7dS2Js

I smiled at TOP. "Follow me and we will talk."copyright protection226PENANAAlUJVKxhVv230Please respect copyright.PENANA53KvrxrUd0
I started to walk out of230Please respect copyright.PENANAgrMF9ipsHI
the lobby and the others followed. We found ourselves walking across 230Please respect copyright.PENANAJOCJOhFRWD
the car park and we stopped right next to TOP's car. I looked at TOP, 230Please respect copyright.PENANAr0peuHrFk8
then at his car, telling him with my eyes to open the door.copyright protection226PENANAOSnIkvjkYo230Please respect copyright.PENANAzDogCRvkxF
"What are you up to?" TOP asked.copyright protection226PENANA4vYm7mbNWr230Please respect copyright.PENANAcV71m5SaoI
"We're going to pack our gym bags in your car and go hang out with BlackPink," I answered.copyright protection226PENANAHMrorX4bXv230Please respect copyright.PENANAFY39z6VrDM
"But that doesn't answer my question."copyright protection226PENANAfO77lDgwf2230Please respect copyright.PENANADc5kbEM9dd
"What question?" Jisoo asked.copyright protection226PENANAbKVwmG9Qfs230Please respect copyright.PENANA4Si1nJ4wyq
"Just like we want to hang out with you guys, we also planned to hang out with WINNER," I said, as I looked at Jisoo.copyright protection226PENANABVxu5CF13O230Please respect copyright.PENANA11nW0CkY1q

"That's what I told 230Please respect copyright.PENANAeeRhZySzKE

out, they will take pictures and post them all over social media."copyright protection226PENANAo2ceRLRzk3230Please respect copyright.PENANAQMe1eLm5Ne
"I already know that and230Please respect copyright.PENANAzvCkEQhIjU

"Are you hearing 230Please respect copyright.PENANAKfONtaSbXg
yourself right now?" TOP asked. He looked really surprised. "You agree 230Please respect copyright.PENANAPUn4uHEGks
that you would rather get in trouble with our managers or what?"copyright protection226PENANA7fAMyU0AhC230Please respect copyright.PENANAZfCyMBVlsF

"I don't know if I 230Please respect copyright.PENANAHfWhm1iKmi

"Don't bring that up 230Please respect copyright.PENANAZFItPIaeSc
again, will you?" I asked as I looked sternly at TOP. "What I mean is 230Please respect copyright.PENANAarSwKGhCjv
that we don't have to hide from our managers that we have already met. 230Please respect copyright.PENANAaAh1Qp8qhE

"We already have our 230Please respect copyright.PENANAxYK6PQv35R
fans to do that, don't we?" I asked with my eyebrow raised. "Pictures 230Please respect copyright.PENANAsicgo4dLdY

have already met, there's simply nothing they can do about it."copyright protection226PENANAvVfebIycyh230Please respect copyright.PENANAleO4UCieSF
"Sounds like a swell 230Please respect copyright.PENANAfssHYUzwPF

to agree. I smiled at the positive response I got and I turned to look 230Please respect copyright.PENANASSNz7iEL0J
at TOP who looked at me with amazement. He shook his head and smiled.copyright protection226PENANAFCrls1pq0D230Please respect copyright.PENANAtbj2ZImBtp

After the four Toxins 230Please respect copyright.PENANApZRtr6xJDI
and I had packed our bags in TOP's car, we soon headed for the gate and 230Please respect copyright.PENANADT1I60bxfP
the guard standing by, opened it for us. When we all walked out of the 230Please respect copyright.PENANAb1BT1eJSAq

asked. "They caught us right before we could leave and they wanted to 230Please respect copyright.PENANAQoP13CnNcY

Zoey, Christine and the 230Please respect copyright.PENANA2DRIEZb13h

"Fine," I looked down at230Please respect copyright.PENANAEO5k83JlEN
my feet, took a deep breath and went back to look at him, changing my 230Please respect copyright.PENANATP9EgPK0gx

Tuesday, right after we opened school. For Sam and I, it was our second 230Please respect copyright.PENANAWJNyBKEnfd

"He was the like the 230Please respect copyright.PENANAQFboQxNCha

her hair from behind. He always used to do that even in class since he 230Please respect copyright.PENANAxcB0U3KLV0
also used to sit behind her. And the next thing I know, Sam had quickly 230Please respect copyright.PENANAAvUKXeTAkl
turned around and all I heard was a bone crunching sound. When I turned 230Please respect copyright.PENANASkslvz9kCA
around, Johnny was on one knee holding his bloody nose."copyright protection226PENANAVHWDnha5qX230Please respect copyright.PENANA0gopvBdMqa

"Apparently, she 230Please respect copyright.PENANAC3oaEgC4bs

the school parking lot and there were no teachers around."copyright protection226PENANAgv3HjrRGrb230Please respect copyright.PENANA2rtyPSjlg6
"And besides, Johnny 230Please respect copyright.PENANAXMh0BfkPiX

three people in the bus apart from us. They were all older looking who 230Please respect copyright.PENANAyZWYTIKLGw

"Mike, hey," came Taeyang. "I saw the video you sent me of Sam and Zoey. That was one awesome dance battle."copyright protection226PENANAuTUQHNmP6F230Please respect copyright.PENANAL6tjGfuUSV
"Awww! Thank you!" Zoey magically appeared beside Mike so that she could talk to Taeyang.copyright protection226PENANAEdQPFzVkPs230Please respect copyright.PENANAWvEBPcZVNm
"Hey, Zoey," said Taeyang. "You two were great."copyright protection226PENANAkFoi5dqqZB230Please respect copyright.PENANAthnumzXM6X
"Who do you think won? I mean, it was a dance battle and we danced to your song, so you should probably announce the winner."copyright protection226PENANANlIfFF3myP230Please respect copyright.PENANAl7nm7bYJfr
"Don't answer that!" I yelled as I stood over the chair, jumped over the seat and Jennie, joining Mike and Zoey on the aisle.copyright protection226PENANAjaGAP7gPVa230Please respect copyright.PENANAUK77EErYgl
"Why don't you want me to answer that, Sam?" Taeyang asked.copyright protection226PENANAmJggjD3PuJ230Please respect copyright.PENANAF6NiDimjnJ
"Well, I think we danced very well," I said as I smiled at him. "So there is no need."copyright protection226PENANASD2R1IcdEi230Please respect copyright.PENANAjhkzBdCvWB
"And besides, I put up a voting poll online and by the end of the day, we'll be able to see what the fans think," said Mike.copyright protection226PENANAbYE9af2e5U230Please respect copyright.PENANAHS1IGO4xHs
"Wait! What dance battle?" Lisa asked.copyright protection226PENANA6CyF9qJ7rF230Please respect copyright.PENANAfrpUBFhng5
"Who is that?" Taeyang asked. "Sounds familiar."copyright protection226PENANAfNQrDozsi2230Please respect copyright.PENANARKlwIstCLo
"Tae!" Lisa exclaimed gleefully as she came and stood right behind me waving at Taeyang on the screen.copyright protection226PENANAFstix983mh230Please respect copyright.PENANAseKzKV6Wes
"Aaaah!" Taeyang looked 230Please respect copyright.PENANACufIyNpYxI
like he had just seen a ghost and almost dropped his phone. He edged 230Please respect copyright.PENANAsZgUtrCqug
closer to the camera, clearly not believing his eyes. "Lisa? What are 230Please respect copyright.PENANAkSxZUghI5k
you doing with these guys?"copyright protection226PENANAmcNz6UNcex230Please respect copyright.PENANAOJQYx4swTb
"Hanging out," Lisa answered.copyright protection226PENANAZUPhvUhR2f230Please respect copyright.PENANAAOtKvGEEA5
"Isn't that risky? Our manager doesn't know, does he?"copyright protection226PENANAazBn3JE7YU230Please respect copyright.PENANAVuM3moJ0UF
"Oh, no," said Zoey as she shook her head. "You shouldn't even tell him, yet alone Collins."copyright protection226PENANAbK49L5OX6l230Please respect copyright.PENANArzmZYcIRrr
"Of course I wouldn't," said Taeyang. "I just hope the whole BlackPink isn't there with you."copyright protection226PENANADdZYv1CTSp230Please respect copyright.PENANAOZWrW0e97a
"Surprise!" came Jisoo, Jennie and Rosé as they also came to join us on the aisle.copyright protection226PENANAAk85jVRnDv230Please respect copyright.PENANAOOkhBSHWDj
"Aish!" Taeyang hit his forehead and looked like he was about to faint. "Now you're really in trouble."copyright protection226PENANAY2o9UdAHrr230Please respect copyright.PENANA6xepubMODG
"Don't worry about a thing, Tae," said Mike. "It's not like we're doing anything wrong."copyright protection226PENANA4sGyrYsKPg230Please respect copyright.PENANAUeZkdrSQvF
"When The Toxins are around, there is bound to be trouble."copyright protection226PENANAHzReuamiYS230Please respect copyright.PENANACxGMitIsoN
"Hey!" Daniel came and squeezed in right next to Zoey. "You know, you sound just like our managers."copyright protection226PENANAfbWlAUNLxK230Please respect copyright.PENANAGmzgcXnFnJ
"Well, we have been around you a lot haven't we?"copyright protection226PENANAssAgvGH24C230Please respect copyright.PENANAfFH0UeBJPV
The three Toxins and I nodded our heads, murmuring in agreement.copyright protection226PENANAjR0G8Xfwhn230Please respect copyright.PENANA5EoSltIW0Q
"But we're not that bad," said Mike.copyright protection226PENANAzrLHPjYGA0230Please respect copyright.PENANA1kXGkOFXW8
"No, you aren't," said Taeyang. "But you know how our managers think."copyright protection226PENANAxLnj8KWwnV230Please respect copyright.PENANAuEwmkcqggc
"I tried to warn them," said TOP. "But they never listen to me."copyright protection226PENANAVx2olpfJcf230Please respect copyright.PENANAD5xJ8VmNvF
"Is that Choi with you?"copyright protection226PENANAxvXOhYLraD230Please respect copyright.PENANAvx0qzzmXnk
Mike turned the phone 230Please respect copyright.PENANAural3VovSz
camera around so that Taeyang could be able to see TOP. What Taeyang was230Please respect copyright.PENANA9s3Y3eNwys
about to see next wasn't going to be good at all.copyright protection226PENANAWWjvMPXycQ230Please respect copyright.PENANAg5hZko5B8w
"What the.....!" Taeyang sounded surprised when he not only saw TOP but WINNER as well.copyright protection226PENANAEJKUF9oCpS230Please respect copyright.PENANAgxGM9JwLa2
TOP with the rest of WINNER waved at Taeyang over the phone.copyright protection226PENANAFYRVAfuLAv230Please respect copyright.PENANA0jIZJGN8UX
"You're in super mega trouble now," said Taeyang.copyright protection226PENANAClMrdOCeyB230Please respect copyright.PENANAF5Y9PeKier
Mike turned the phone back to his direction. "We know," he said.copyright protection226PENANAfwbgIBtSoA230Please respect copyright.PENANAzaB7Lhn333
"Wait, a minute. Are you guys in a bus right now?"copyright protection226PENANAkr4ODSWBRp230Please respect copyright.PENANAq0CRJrdd9z
"Yep," I answered.copyright protection226PENANAE7cfzE0LYe230Please respect copyright.PENANAEeGBUrqLF4
"Where are you all going?"copyright protection226PENANA95pxgVA9NR230Please respect copyright.PENANAAhaopr6GnT
"To have fun, of course," said Jennie.copyright protection226PENANANCHDO9s3Qs230Please respect copyright.PENANAQpCiwcXCzm
"Why did I even bother to ask? Just try not to attract any attention among yourselves out there."copyright protection226PENANAgtcXiLaLM5230Please respect copyright.PENANAWF4WZgC11N
"That will be 230Please respect copyright.PENANAqk8hOaltaO
impossible, Tae," said Jisoo. "I mean, three of the famous pop music 230Please respect copyright.PENANAvuQzvHgIqP
groups walking down the street? That's certainly going to raise 230Please respect copyright.PENANA8n0OQwV0sR
everyone's attention."copyright protection226PENANAv2eWxC12Df230Please respect copyright.PENANAOl4U4xeKNo
"Whatever. You just have fun and try not to do any funny business."copyright protection226PENANAQTluZP5YBj230Please respect copyright.PENANANf8o7D3AST
"Don't worry about a thing," said Lisa. "We're with The Toxins. What could possibly go wrong?"copyright protection226PENANAMAtko5HYSP230Please respect copyright.PENANARjUPuWHmAj
"Ummmm, guys," came Christine. "You might want to sit down."copyright protection226PENANAKkVjqU7xLx230Please respect copyright.PENANA5JxjG8IR80
"Huh? Why?" Rosé asked.copyright protection226PENANAtY18KfERcm230Please respect copyright.PENANAAYlAahhgT8
Before Christine could 230Please respect copyright.PENANAubRjJ4n4c2
say anything else, the bus skidded to a stop and the next thing I know, I230Please respect copyright.PENANAVKwT2EWfbe
was tumbling to the bus floor on the aisle since I lost balance with 230Please respect copyright.PENANAHNuIMJa4kA
Zoey and the rest of the BlackPink. I fell back first onto the floor. 230Please respect copyright.PENANAq4Q439xTyC
Mike and Daniel remained standing as they were holding on to the bus 230Please respect copyright.PENANAqk0FgP37v2
pole.copyright protection226PENANAdA57KwNDf6230Please respect copyright.PENANAwBDwmCH6US
"The bus was planning to stop," said Christine as she got up from her seat and looked at us on the floor. "Are you guys okay?"copyright protection226PENANA4FSI8nBbew230Please respect copyright.PENANAz3m5KlhdLL
"Never better," said Zoey as she held her head and got up. She hit her face real hard on the floor.copyright protection226PENANAqcxfbr0Vr0230Please respect copyright.PENANArJKOcMvyqn
Jennie who fell beside 230Please respect copyright.PENANAj8INdZ61rl
me soon got up and before I could fully get up myself, someone from 230Please respect copyright.PENANAOuy6ynKpHh
behind already had their hands under my arms pulling me up.copyright protection226PENANARzljkXyHcj230Please respect copyright.PENANAycYGZf4fUz
"Are you okay?" 230Please respect copyright.PENANAAK9v5exvQx
Seunghoon asked straight in my ear as I stood up from the floor. His 230Please respect copyright.PENANAqEaymO8ZMp
voice almost felt like a whisper. I quickly turned around to look at 230Please respect copyright.PENANAvuf1r0OLiB
him.copyright protection226PENANANyVc4ST4KN230Please respect copyright.PENANAUx2hJxYBNK
"I'm fine," I said.copyright protection226PENANAzDM2RgkNft230Please respect copyright.PENANAFaAWvVxNqj
"I hope no one has broken bones or anything," said Mino.copyright protection226PENANA1DbEh7VKYa230Please respect copyright.PENANANDdabLCoI0
"We're fine," said Rosé, as she and Lisa slowly got up. "You should have helped some of us get up."copyright protection226PENANAhTXFbywrEQ230Please respect copyright.PENANASEhBNWZi1t
"My head hurts real bad!" Zoey complained as she still held her forehead. "Hopefully, I'm not swollen."copyright protection226PENANAl5Ob5ufwZ6230Please respect copyright.PENANADf6tDtfiuk
"No, you're not," said Christine as she came to check up on Zoey. "You'll be fine."copyright protection226PENANAr1E1CKEaVv230Please respect copyright.PENANA4tqH0UqX95
"This is what I didn't want to happen," said Taeyang over Mike's phone. "Hope everyone is okay."copyright protection226PENANAYIdNfYEF7Z230Please respect copyright.PENANAESGRYZIQQ9
"We're excellent," said Jennie. "To be honest that felt kind of fun. We should be falling more often."copyright protection226PENANA2iVuEJw2fs230Please respect copyright.PENANA57aOKqUzs7
"No!" The four Toxins and I exclaimed at the same time, looking at Jennie.copyright protection226PENANAiDHKHMXMGY230Please respect copyright.PENANABduXD8BHCF
I heard the bus driver chuckle behind me and when I turned to look at him, he quickly smiled and looked away.copyright protection226PENANAmbx6xYPSze230Please respect copyright.PENANAoUh30w6Fuc
"Where are we anyway?" Daniel asked he looked out of the window.copyright protection226PENANAo9ThIaOzhh230Please respect copyright.PENANAnyxIbb72BQ
"Times Square," the bus driver answered, as he turned to look at us.copyright protection226PENANASlQQRaNuhu230Please respect copyright.PENANA2BFvHVkuyB
"Should we go?" Jinwoo asked. "Doesn't seem like a bad place to hang out."copyright protection226PENANA5iGFYzt0mq230Please respect copyright.PENANA2YWtbrVjaG
"Well, you seem like you all didn't know where to go," said the driver. "So, I thought this place will be just right."copyright protection226PENANAxoFB3IzY0F230Please respect copyright.PENANA36bYjgSYDH
"Seems okay to me," I said. "What does everyone else think?"copyright protection226PENANA8pRWyltCXu230Please respect copyright.PENANAxIKdkbYy57
"We haven't really been at Times Square ourselves," said Christine. "So I say we go for it."copyright protection226PENANA6WfjUJUBRL230Please respect copyright.PENANAWxoE4bAIEh
"If Sam says we go, we go," said Seunghoon.copyright protection226PENANAk3Fjg83IJz230Please respect copyright.PENANA9tqkGrFuTc
"This is what I call trusting blindly," said TOP.copyright protection226PENANAGjPR7mwvDD230Please respect copyright.PENANAOIrwjPukPa
"Tell me about it," I said as I rolled my eyes. I almost laughed in the end.copyright protection226PENANAMaE0gyT0YK230Please respect copyright.PENANA6OmzSYUKHu
"Okay, since we're all leaving," said Mino. "Let's go."copyright protection226PENANAhOFMAqKwnn230Please respect copyright.PENANA9U5ItQIUPx
"Alright, Tae," said Mike as he went back to looking at his phone. "If you want to join us, you know where to find us."copyright protection226PENANAxLHIomrbtH230Please respect copyright.PENANAmz4zm9bZQL
"I'll consider that," said Taeyang. "Bye, guys."copyright protection226PENANAFC9c0AcRIT230Please respect copyright.PENANA2nuZ8zQqNo
We all said bye to 230Please respect copyright.PENANA1MOxJMxZhY
Taeyang and the doors to the bus flew open. We all started to file out 230Please respect copyright.PENANAJpOjl0DsJF
of the bus, one by one. I gave the bus driver a smile and waved at him 230Please respect copyright.PENANAcomIWHOf9T
as I walked out of the bus and he happily waved back.copyright protection226PENANALXGqrkGpf0230Please respect copyright.PENANA2jjlgaomy4
When we all disembarked and the bus had finally drove away, we all looked at the massive tall buildings before us.copyright protection226PENANAfKzxe5HcMJ230Please respect copyright.PENANAxz80Qa2RcX
"So, what do you think we should do first?" Zoey asked.copyright protection226PENANAuEDcwXTCOC230Please respect copyright.PENANAEQuW04rXEL
"I simply have no clue," said Seungyoon.copyright protection226PENANAa2hjqcDXCs230Please respect copyright.PENANA4DQWFvvVIE
"I think we do what we do best," said Daniel.copyright protection226PENANAcF5PAyCMae230Please respect copyright.PENANA7CQgkQhyt8
"And what's that?" Lisa asked as she looked at Daniel.copyright protection226PENANA2yFETHABLk230Please respect copyright.PENANAKv00ibmyDs
