Hanging out at Times 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJia3C11VR
Square was super duper fun yesterday. The positive reactions we got from1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgkARmuWw8
the fans sent us trending all over Twitter within hours and soon, 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8VNDXyhVK
everyone got to know that BTW meant BlackPink, The Toxins and WINNER.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBDcTryT1D
But that didn't matter. 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4cSE3dRse
The three groups together with Lee and TOP had a ton of fun stuff to do 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlSwOiqmdL
at Times Square soon after we had lunch. We first went to watch a movie 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3196FwzEvi
on the largest screen in the world, which was amazing. Then we went and 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqvIPw31b2
had fun at the "I Like Dalgi Children's Theme Park", meant for little 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2E2YKyzjqd
kids. But hey, who says grown ups can't have a little fun too? Don't 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNRGvXhv8L
worry, we weren't actually playing on the swings or anything. We 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11KN1okaKY
actually played around with the adorable kids.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPtWvQdUJA
There were plenty of 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2d1z1J1pT
open outdoor spaces like the ecology park, a fountain and a rooftop 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkGyef7E7I
garden that we visited. We even took group pictures and selfies with the1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPAsIWS4kH
beautiful nature around us. And we managed to get pictures with a few 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMr2t0eRy7h
fans too.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8436IAKqg7
The time we were done 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwN26K41bTz
having fun at Times Square was in the evening and it was completely 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdx2bl9mdQA
unbelievable when we stepped out into the parking lot and found three 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHj7xM1aFQm
black SUV cars, for each of the three groups waiting to pick us up. What1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzqyjSarH1
made the scene even more dramatic yet terrifying, was that our two 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fmD9ZCKZF
managers were there, waiting for us. They had received the message 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Un1tW3rm2
through social media alright and they didn't look too happy that we had 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFit6zEYB5Y
all met and decided to hang out. It was surprising to them that we had 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz05WZ6cZ7X
all met "by coincidence." The rest of us never said a word about how 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnK13kg9oZ
everything came to be. Especially with WINNER visiting The Toxins the 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLZQBiIUSZ
previous day, of course.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3h7IMQSmS
As much as the managers 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcVUM3UE9a
kept their cool and didn't say a word afterwards meant they weren't 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngMotRsWyM
really mad at all and we managed to drive away from Times Square without1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApozwiuI57
any complaints. I knew my plan would work but I also knew we were in 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1ltIlMGkq
for a serious talk from our two managers after they take this all in.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBR0HOEN1TK
Right now, this very 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIjK6slafN
morning, I was bending over, tying my shoelaces and wondering what they 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvpVUZM6EL
could possibly want to talk to the three groups about as we meet with 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatz7g6uSE2
them. Collins told us a few minutes ago during breakfast that he and 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5UEkHYCMX
Yang Hyun-suk want the three groups to go to YG and talk. I hope it 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcCU0NMzw2
isn't that serious because yesterday, they didn't seem so mad at all. 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUscIctUuSZ
But why was I so worried? I couldn't figure out what was bothering me 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJVH9h2JsS
and I just couldn't take it.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zOBgOibWx
I stood up straight after tying my shoelaces and I noticed Zoey approach me as she came out of the bathroom.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHfY7jpWGL
"Do you think they are mad?" Zoey asked as she stood a few feet away from me.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9P9Gx3h7A
"You're worried, aren't you?" I asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeGonNsTAL
"Aren't you?" Zoey folded her arms.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KOBH5vETg
I sighed. If Zoey could be as worried as I was, the rest of The Toxins were too.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZhl4QxY19
"I am," I said. "It's pretty troublesome that they would want us all to meet at YG."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjS51y4GRtR
"I thought you said your plan would work."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJQY2bGXfn
"In some way, it did, because they would have been so furious at us, but they weren't."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡma07SRAHoa
"Do you think they would want to talk about this BTW thing?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq105lBqWPI
I felt like slapping my 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ372CIezrAp
forehead because I realised I was such a complete idiot. Of course. BTW.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QLaqTocnp
Now that Zoey mentioned it, it all made sense. The managers would 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jUnqNBWs7
probably want to talk about BTW because as far as the three groups 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCIaWcNYiC
meeting "by coincidence" was concerned, they had completely brushed it 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOwoMS1sbx
off.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1iYmJx76fT
"Ya, you're right," I said. "They obviously want to talk about that."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYFWFERiMY
"Do you think they would want to make it a real thing?" Zoey was getting anxious.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi10BtpIii6
"I would hold that thought for a while if I were you and see what the managers have to say."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhjj76vQtg
Zoey raised an eyebrow at me. "You're worried that they wouldn't agree, aren't you?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xlb04dpIx
I shrugged. She read my 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1WwvRkWmf
mind really well. "I can't lie. I thought about it yesterday and now 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrc8m1M0lY
that you bought up the BTW thing, I realise it's what's been bothering 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVh5ZGYqaIz
me the whole time."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXvrCuiT2u
I sat down on my bed as 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJ88yvmeRi
my mind kept spinning around the issue. I shouldn't have told Zoey how I1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKA5yE130TA
felt about all this but I had to let it out somehow.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yvTNgbWk3
"You know, you should have given us a heads up about it, Sam," said Zoey as she also sat on her bed facing me.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4hsXMKZiI
"Gosh, you really should1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVpKqgPzB1
have seen the looks on all of your faces when we were having fun 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDVLwDce94
yesterday. I just couldn't burst your bubble and tell you whats likely 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqkayJEWfd
to happen to BTW. We all weren't going to enjoy ourselves when it really1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOqjaUySHX
mattered so I kept quiet. I for one even forgot about it too."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXuzmk12ag3
"Ya, you're right not to have brought it up or I would've killed you."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJpxWzyAlL
"Like you almost did to Mike?" I smirked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7y3Wl3fAue
"Mike is annoying 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVo3XJZ2cds
sometimes," said Zoey as she expressed her irritation with her hands as 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKB4lo2bqaZ
though they were bear claws. "You could scratch his eyes out."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07obBQt1xy
"You've been planning to do that ever since we became best friends and he knew the essence of being annoying around you."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvo8gy9jAu
"You're right. I should burn him instead."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGv0ZBRnU4j
I laughed. "The drama between you two never gets old."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZgp8hIrsg
"And what about the drama between you and Seunghoon?" Zoey's eyebrows were raised and she had a crooked smile on her face.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUq6YSdk2n
"Don't even go there," I warned as I pointed a finger at her.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0aRqans2A
"Sorry, but just so you 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uhxBBRuYR
know, all the guys on social media were kind of jealous when he posted 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwe1Kg7LFRu
that pic of you and him together."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkycz3MxxDA
"Pff! That's not true." I rolled my eyes.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWIQkz1okO
"Well, you can ask Seungri and TOP who made a comment on Instagram last night."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qdhrfi741
I blushed and at the 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqeNcvOzPs
same time felt so confused. Zoey had a silly smile on her face and I 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKwX5b81XI
couldn't tell whether she did that to intimidate me or there was some 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAZIFrmHYw
other hidden agenda.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcNxG7adnE
"You weren't on Instagram last night, were you?" she asked this time with a surprised look on her face.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0CnKjF0zY
"I was," I said as I stared at the ceiling to avoid her eyes."But only for a little while."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5j86Fp6ccA
"Or you weren't really there at all. If you did, you wouldn't have that look on your face."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOY4qHOU0Qm
I sighed in surrender. 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJvzLdZj7Q
"Fine. You caught me. I logged out of Instagram because I wanted to. 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhHB3Iu73f
Besides, I knew all the notifications I was bound to receive were going 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4Yv2zD35J
to be endless, so I did what I had to do."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmZx6rTrH6
Zoey shook her head. "You really surprise me how much you aren't really a fan of social media when most of our peers are."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnIEeJngkc
"You know me already, Zoey. I like social media when it's necessary."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xdpB3Aaoo
"And hate it when you hit the headlines. Ya, I know you very well."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdljw6vn2Ia
"Okay, enough. What happened on Instagram last night?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTwRTJPkix
Zoey had an excited look1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0sVBOW0o6
on her face that for a moment, I was surprised that she was ever even 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4C7whcSuEj
worried about us meeting with the managers at YG. Something hot was 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgue505U5Lc
cooking about Seunghoon and I being called a couple. And it could 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZNbF9p6yQ
clearly show all over her face.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVo61Jg33j1
"There was a debate last night whether you made a compatible girlfriend for Seungyoon," said Zoey as she excitedly bit her lip.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5Vscu0dP6
I shook my head. "And?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxanft41hN
Zoey folded her arms, 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAIJFsYaXC4
still smiling. "Some people thought you and Seunghoon made a lovely 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNHYNsvCYG
couple, but others, mostly guys, didn't."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwI06uMwxr
"Hold that thought. This1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDROxBhfh7
wouldn't have come up unless someone said something about the two of us1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbU01XLP3c
after Seunghoon posted that picture."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJ7eazPc25
"Don't look at me." Zoey looked the other way. "I didn't say anything."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ps3p9zLXw
I snapped my fingers. "Seunghoon."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDSTmiFKJP
"Bingo!" Zoey clapped her hands.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgtjFfXo6a
"Gosh, what's wrong with him?" I rubbed my forehead feeling like I might just develop a headache.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZIfHyowTV
"He's a fan. Is that so wrong?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vhQLuIQgu
"Well, he hid in our closet."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xMqMrenoq
"That was just the closet. Even I would do that for my bias."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SdmXK1W5W
"Wow!" I leaned back in surprise. "Did you just say bias?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarGHsEV6i2
"Ya, why?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7y2UrU3tl
"Looks like we just 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNRsSgW00r
developed the k-pop culture where we refer to our favourite celebrity, 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FkG1O8aeq
whom we consider perfect as our bias."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHr69HbB2v
Zoey thought for a moment over what I said as she looked at the floor and then back at me. "Mmmm, I guess you're right."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMzSoL3Dax
"But anyway, Seunghoon hiding in my closet wasn't the only thing that he has done."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAk5xAaKY0w
"What do you mean? You 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡospqfXIgMx
got to meet Seunghoon for the first time when he jumped out of our 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rbmwOzZBr
closet. What else could he possibly have done before that?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1ywce4CzU
"We had a few encounters before though I never knew it was him."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfsgjB72Ri
Zoey's eyes bulged out in surprise. "He was stalking you?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyjZTP5Pct
"Not really. But I can say he was. Just a little. If he was a full time stalker, he would've been doing so everyday."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuXoVKMmkv
"When did that happen and when were you ever going to tell me?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMHX5IKf5B
"I wanted to but I kept 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUytVHago5
it to myself. And when other issues started to arise, especially with 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJ7Gt2woA9
Jehan, I even forgot that I even had a stalker."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZXspdw0wM
"Jehan. Don't remind me," said Zoey as she rolled her eyes.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxiTr60YSWH
"Ya, I shouldn't. But now you know. And for the record, don't tell anybody."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4dABccE7P
"My lips on this one are sealed. I won't tell anyone, not even G-Dragon."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwbyFfOVq7
I looked at Zoey with a questioning look. "Why would you mention him in all of this?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegTM9MeSyG
Zoey quickly got up from the bed. "Pretend I never said that."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24jzvCqeAX
I quickly stood up and 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQG7UOEWwj
Zoey made a beeline for the door. I followed her and just before she 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Hnnf0UXzo
could hold the door knob, I reached her, held her by the hair and pulled1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctXmvZdkBR
her back.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegp3SRMEc8
"Ow, ow, ow!" Zoey yelled as she held the back of her head from where I pulled at her hair.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuJTft7bKf
"Zoey, you're going to 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7aI1kXhiA
tell me right now what you mean," I said, pulling her hair even more. 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhRc0tlW4B
"Or else, I'll pull your hair out and you will not think of dying your 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlDyPSxt2R
own hair pink in the next ten years."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RvqmGaAhH
"Ouch! Sam! You're hurting me!" Zoey complained. "I was just joking around."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWB6oVKN8wo
"You're lying."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCvMDjrOi3
"I'm telling the truth!"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOooNPqwlW
"Come on, Zoey. You personally had a talk with G-Dragon, didn't you?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlioFyR3Nt9
I felt Zoey pause as she stopped struggling to get away. "How did you know?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11ZVUnmw9P
"I know because I know. So, what did you two talk about?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRkEqzPQe8
"I can't tell you that."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZQcuSXBD3
"Why?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPQQXRkSvC
"Because it's 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MbZjc32yI
confidential. Owwwuch!" I made sure I tightened my fist even more under 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNHki29iol
her hair pulling at her roots. "That really hurts!"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9NHq3T8Mr
The door in front of us suddenly flew open. Lee came in the room and paused upon seeing the scene in front of her.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWjRfCef1n
"Is it me or is Sam trying to braid your hair?" Lee asked Zoey with an unbelievable look on her face.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83VCILHSfk
"Yes, I was," I said as I let go of Zoey's hair and Zoey blew out a sigh of relief. "Turns out, I'm not that good at it at all."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gzcLmyB0f
"No, you aren't," said Zoey as she massaged her scalp from where I had pulled her hair and she looked at me with a frown.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1QnYwjdn2
"You can tell me about your drama later," said Lee. "The car's here and we have to go."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrjyFY5x2G
Zoey whined as though she was about to cry. "Do we really have to go now?" she asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pKc2wD9AY
"I know it feels like you're going for a trial, but you don't have a choice."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8dMd6iA6N
"Lee's right," I said. "We do have to hear our managers out. Though we all know it won't be pretty."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaWRBEIm4o
"Fine," said Zoey. "Before we get there, I better prepare for the worst."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqGsO51Hw1
"Think positive," said Lee. "You can never know what might happen."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaspV2QYDhN
"No, Sam's already spoiled my mood with her own premonitions."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5oXSUjxhF
"And she did the right thing," said Lee with a smile.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9n7JPtAEb
I playfully rolled my 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyolLkCbN4
eyes and didn't say a word as I walked out of the room with Zoey and Lee1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbah3uYvVGq
following suit. I found the other Toxins waiting by the elevator. They 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvVbrvCKJp
also looked worried.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡED80J2QU6u
"You all look like you're going to a funeral," said Zoey.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgjkcOFKar
"And you were sounding like your hair's caught fire a minute ago," said Mike, folding his arms and looking at Zoey.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxJOQ9XKHo
"I fell on the floor." Zoey looked at Mike with wide eyes.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyM4wugWIVM
"Never mind. Just like you guys, we are also worried," I said.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJ8tmSSa2o
"Where is Collins?" Daniel asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2miwnTngSI
"He left soon after breakfast," Lee answered.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRggSJyLmP
The five of us turned to look at Lee. "What?" we said at the same time.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUU2f4jjmiY
"He left early," said Lee, shrugging her shoulders1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JuTuJcvL8
"Why? Is he really that mad at us that he wants to go ahead to prepare a death trap?" Zoey asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUx3D6dWca
"Death trap? Seriously, Zoey?" Christine asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXs4dyjX9uW
Zoey shrugged. "Couldn't think of any other way to say it."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPRSqOfflY
"Okay, first of all," 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbwpiSe0bq
said Lee grabbing our attention. "There is no death trap. Secondly, 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBV7K9azWcq
after we came back from Times Square, I personally talked to Collins and1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01Wm5crhaP
he wasn't mad at you."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlqYK37tun
"Then do you know why he wants BlackPink, WINNER and us to meet?" Mike asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHr9mf0nOZr
"That, he couldn't say."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWk6zp2VUbz
"I thought you were his assistant," said Daniel.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXj2oMcvVF
"You know, Collins doesn't tell me everything. He treats me like I'm part of you guys too."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1H4XLenU8
"Welcome to the monkey side," said Zoey as she rolled her eyes and scratched her head.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4aYcWFMWkG
"Ya, I now know how that feels. But right now we better go."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbMBnDqqt4
Christine pressed the 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35RVuBSj1w
button to the elevator and when we all got in, we headed downstairs and 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9m2OHW9SeT
went in the black SUV waiting for us. There were a few fans who stood 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHv1mLuRa3I
outside the hotel premises and for a moment, it felt a little awkward 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvWzEl8ucN
that they were here in the nearly hours of the morning. I know it's 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0Tyy7y0Cb
normal for every fan to do so but today I couldn't help but feel that 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDCAN9nXBa
something was a bit odd about it. Then I remembered BTW.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMFYoQnbTi
We got to YG right on 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SSAx3VGes
time and immediately we stepped into the lobby, we found all four 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzs20O2DIey
members of WINNER heading for the elevator. Looked like they had also 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3rB3XSpMW
arrived a few seconds earlier.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGejZyPSJQ4
"Hey, guys!" Zoey greeted loudly so that she could grab their attention.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybsUesJ646
"Zoey!" Mino turned around and had a huge smile on his face. "Hey, guys."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsHFHfa3AO
"Hi," the four of us responded and not in a way people would like to hear.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTKt02lLFn
"You all look down," said Seungyoon. "What's wrong?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ418GXckaAm
"It's nothing really," I said. "We just don't like how this meeting is going to turn out."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4eorJOTTC
The four members of WINNER all muttered at the same time.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqxC75s8yH
"Guess we're not the only ones feeling that way," said Jinwoo.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnMq9mmay5
"Are BlackPink already here?" Mike asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0zZMLTym4
"The receptionist says they are waiting in the conference room," said Seunghoon.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16HZuWrbp0
"Okay," said Daniel as he rubbed his hands together. "Let's go meet our fate."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NzQGa86n2
"If this comes out as a death trap, I'm going to say I told you so," said Zoey.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpnA7abzNE
"There will be no such 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdBF1sj5YQ
thing," said Christine. "You're just exaggerating what might come up 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyPSCDRXD4
that we won't like at all so you refer to it as a death trap."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEzeXUJ9k2
"And you're making it 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfc0txqqiKM
sound ten times worse than it already is, Zoey," said Seungyoon, as he 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48dTozCtHC
pouted his lip and scratched his head.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HtDTfqPIC
"Wonder where that came from," said Mino.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5i5SErTkB
"Trust me, you don't 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkid51bPbwn
want to know," said Lee as she pulled out her phone from her purse. "You1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzyKUVNhf8
guys go ahead and I'll give your managers a call that you're here."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dNdpFJLwQ
"You aren't coming with us?" I asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6ecIBeGnZ
"I might have joined the 'monkey's club' but I'm not going to be there when they drop a bombshell."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb824uFPcIj
"See, death trap!" Zoey emphasised.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHR0JhgsY3
"Zoey!" everyone muttered loudly that Zoey quickly covered her mouth and looked away.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54G832vXuz
"Look, whether they are 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsIQUHWiVd
going to say what we might not like, a death trap as Zoey likes to put 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVOFvZUbhg
it. Or not, you'll be fine," said Lee. "We all have gone through this 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQjZ0Kj9nx
where you never like the decisions the managers have to make."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOc1iCnXPY
"Please, don't remind us," said Mike as he rubbed his forehead.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgqekRm3TI
"Either way," Lee continued, "you better go. You don't want to be late."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tiHIhcmCM
"Won't you wish us luck?" I asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCTTpvIXqO
"You don't need it when you already know what's going to happen."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwdSqfWWNq
I gave Lee a sad smile 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVhhZhnd69
and turned towards the elevator. I started to feel the way I always felt1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXQ614lahQ
whenever you had to hear a decision that might just cost something in 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1d44jZwML
your life. Like suicide.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52byTCieaY
We started our way 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mxHLgFc67
towards the elevator when all of the sudden, I stopped when I realised 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBZbx1am59
that I didn't have my phone with me. I checked the pockets of my jumper 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITrBXBhmmM
and my jean trousers. Nothing.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDomIYWBUy
"Gosh, I think I left my phone in the car," I said. "You guys go ahead, I'll catch up."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelCPb9X8AR
I quickly ran out of the1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8UM847PMo
lobby as the others made their way into the elevator with Lee. When I 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorxjlywZIY
got to the parking lot, I made my way towards the SUV we had driven in 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRidVZ0QCt
and luckily, I met the driver who was almost about to leave the car. I 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNtJYFPDkL
told him about my phone and he unlocked the doors for me so that I could1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGXvuZFMKl
check for it inside.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLsfy9wRUF
When I got to the 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyK1Wo8PYLq
passenger's seat, I saw the phone in between the seats I sat on with 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgANkj3vpd
Zoey on our way here. I got in the car and sat in just to get it. When I1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzqeWE6x4s
did, I checked to see if I had any missed calls or messages. There were1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0yvGCoNBx
two missed calls and a message. I opened my inbox to read the message 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMK3Y2vjBgh
and it was one short sentence with only four words. I looked at the 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl59Oabej9U
message again not believing what I read. There was only one logical 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkncGPwekx9
explanation to this and I was going to find out why.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuF5z05dKF
Just as I was about to get out, I jumped in fright when I saw who was standing right outside the car. Seunghoon.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKIiZy2voZ
"Seriously, I can sue 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsFlFAUm4M
you for stalking me," I said as I held my chest. My heart was beating so1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfCYM68mwa
fast. I never even heard him coming.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5ifB2aRAG
"Just came to check on you," he said with a smile.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMGkIhifa2
"You're not my bodyguard1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRLhVH3IPE
that you've to follow me around," I said as I came out of the car and 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJE8equjd1o
banged the door shut. "How did you get here? I never heard you coming."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tmyIGMcLp
"Maybe I have kitty attributes like you." Seunghoon raised his eyebrows up and down and leaned towards me.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkWYXU5vq6
I blushed. "You know about that?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzoYvr9zfU
"Everyone knows you have1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQ3UvGKhl2
cat feet, Sam. No one ever hears you coming unless you want them to. 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTZTZPBLx5
Zoey once mentioned that in an interview, I remember."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH43mrkhhB3
"Never mind. I just came to get my phone and you didn't have to follow me."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYG30sfXBp6
"Looks like I did the 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpitl8LFJR
right thing because you look like you're about to punch something right 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfoiTMQ5jo
now and I'll be the one to control your anger."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVf8RJnnKV
"If I wanted to, can you be my punching bag?" I folded my arms.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpw3nLFiZiu
"You wouldn't even if you wanted to." He smirked and I rolled my eyes.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KRayimodN
"You're right. I don't want to be sued by YG for breaking your face."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yDUM8OsRn
"And because you're a 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMdzJv4ECM
lady and you don't have to punch anyone unless it's necessary. You might1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOR81hQlRj
have punched that school mate of yours but that was years ago. So, 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwjhGRhMkX
what's up? It looked like you just received a bad message."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcuLOjHjY2
"It isn't a bad message. Just something that needs a little sorting out. Come on, you'll see."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjuKtz7UgG
I quickly started my way back to the YG building and Seunghoon was up to pace with me with his long legs.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHndLQgD8w
"Can you at least tell 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2y2ZOvTMc
me what's going on?" Seunghoon asked when we finally got in the elevator1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhizU2BAec
and he pressed the button leading to the floor to the conference room.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JemLSZaN4
"Nope, if I tell you it won't have that wonderful dramatic effect," I answered.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MEeqtwWvG
"What dramatic effect?" 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfXjwt9izl
Seunghoon looked me in the eye with a curious look on his face as he 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQucZRwvq6K
came closer. I took a warning step back.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbiwQ8QPvL
"If you hadn't followed 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmqOxnAesz
me to the parking lot, you would know what I mean and you would be 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBeO64f4WB
trying to recover from the little surprise you'll find in the conference1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYaYpkpO8D
room."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡma4vmKoy7a
"What surprise?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GLAjP7bkY
The elevator stopped and1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArYHQtYv47
the doors flew open. Just as Seunghoon and I turned to look down the 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GNOChimJo
hall, there was Zoey coming out hurriedly through the door of one of the1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCF7aucNJa
rooms, into the hall and running towards the elevator upon seeing us. 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOiG8XWhqr
Seunghoon and I stepped out.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5Z9kJV23t
"Zoey, what's wrong?" Seunghoon asked when she reached us and she had a horrified look on her face.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn924picsDW
"You will not believe what's going on," said Zoey.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCs1yHPJAi9
"I already have a guess," I said.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDcOa1357F
"You know?" Zoey grew shocked as she looked at me.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJocoUjqP8t
"Yep. And we are going to sort this out right now."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmnGNWbB3w
I made my way towards the conference room. Seunghoon and Zoey follow.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEHPlOObOt
"What's going on? Can someone please tell me?" Seunghoon asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZKSmDlO63
"You're about to find out," said Zoey.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0In3LR1kAC
When we reached the 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWk6UnEkbN1
conference room, I took hold of the door knob, turned it and opened the 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyvVpUnxPH
door. The conference room was quiet and there was a weird aura that I 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhSOmlk2R4
felt immediately I stepped in. I didn't have to ask why.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVb29dYI0Y
In the conference room 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb41ca51Agj
was a huge round mahogany table. It's polished surface shining bright 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOW6iXi7Jj
under the tiny light bulbs embedded in the roof. There were black office1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwDvN73DTf
chairs around the table. The other Toxins, BlackPink and WINNER were 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBv7LDocBe
all seated at one half end of the rounded table. When they saw me enter 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpv6pSnKPw
the room, the look on their faces was so worrying that I grew horrified 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6CO4aJzTP
though I did my best not to show it.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJROVYXVKu
"Sam," said Mike and I stopped him short before he could say anything else with my hand raised.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFI6jLdTYha
I looked to the opposite1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuLQhqq32Q
half end of the table from where the others sat and I noticed that one 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkGRbWN1MZ
of the chairs faced the other way. Someone was sitting there and had 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMuT8JR53m
turned their backs to us facing the wall.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezqO3ImufD
"You don't have to act all high and mighty, you know?" I said to the person facing the wall. "I know it's you, GD."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJ1oCVutF4
G-Dragon quickly turned 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxtpp5SPvC
around on the chair and he had that smile on his face that was somewhat 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokCiRdAEb3
annoying and yet so cute that my heart almost melted.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbIdmuCGrm
"Hi, Sam," said G-Dragon as he leaned his elbows on the table and his hands under his chin. "How did you know it was me?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFnYgVvmGp
"The message you sent me wasn't too hard to figure out that you would be here," I answered as I held up my phone.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFpFUllYP6
"Huh?" Seunghoon looked surprised at seeing G-Dragon and also confused at what I said. "What did it say?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5KueSjyFu
"Just a simple, 'hi, are you coming?' was all," I said as I looked at Seunghoon.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjtFPdFRpj
"Wait," said Lisa who 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Z1cjnnFzj
sat with the others at the other end, looking at me also with a confused1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwicyBQKZjU
look on her face. "You knew just like that? Through his message?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXzLP3F0rC
"It felt simple and 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbpdO6sZsg
straightforward. For all we know, only BTW were supposed to be here to 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQNPZCq2tL
meet with our managers. And I for one didn't make any breakfast date 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxrwLaaZMb
with G-Dragon today."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnXik2ST5a
"Smart," said G-Dragon as he winked at me."Looks like you're really referring to your little group as BTW then."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGUxwHfdLd
"I don't have a choice." I raised my eyebrow at him. "With you around, I just have to rub it in your face." 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSR5zMCG7vW
"We will see about that. Because we're going to have a serious talk about BTW."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXY7qVGWyX
"I had a feeling you would be on the managers' side the second we came here," said Mino.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1LrMiVpdH
"Ya, I know I'm a 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8CGZM9T6l
threat," said G-Dragon as he grinned. "I did say all this was going to 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZXAljwoEP
have consequences if you guys keep on meeting each other."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxisJ8TXrp
"If you mean us getting 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclDZUChgO5
into trouble with our managers, you're sadly mistaken," said Jessie. 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAQJdl4sdJ
"They weren't even mad at all because all they know is that we all met 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGJlWrz1z1
by coincidence."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAQQapZjD8
"You're right." G-Dragon stood up from his seat. "They aren't mad, just yet."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwiQte2TKn
I didn't like his last sentence and something told me he had something up his sleeve.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwY2ku872yt
"We wouldn't be having this meeting if it wasn't for you, am I right?" I asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyYRwSJcT8
The rest of the BTW crew1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PkdXJCfPY
grew confused and started muttering. And I could tell their eyes were 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGI7AWn9tE
flying from G-Dragon to me, wondering who would say something next.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrWLV66TkW
"You know me so well," said G-Dragon as he stood up and came around the table to get to me.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbIfamPPGG
"I just know how the human mindset works," I said. "I don't really know you at all."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTQAMU0MtG
"Hold up," said Zoey who1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1MiBzSeKc
stood beside me as she looked at G-Dragon. "So, you're saying, you 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLFiJGSnXb
called for this meeting to get us in trouble?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjPVsn58tY
"That's a simple way of putting it," said G-Dragon as he smiled at Zoey.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvON3PQfU0H
"Told you we'll 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1B5yp4ykd
experience a death trap," Zoey muttered loud enough for everyone to hear1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgok1QwywbY
as she went to stand beside the others at the other end of the table.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBiCnqFaAjm
"But is he going to do 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8wgRyWbg9
that?" Rosé asked. "He will need a lot of evidence to show that we all 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5sqeYHak2
didn't really meet by coincidence."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgg9HCtFKZP
There was silence in the1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVED5AaQng
room until Daniel and Mike murmured "oh no" at the same time. I knew 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXo52RUxPwX
that just like me, they had already figured out what G-Dragon was 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2ta1w6bZC
planning to do.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnOMtbUM6G
"He doesn't need any evidence to trap us," said Mike.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbCKjDl0S0
"What do you mean?" Jisoo who sat beside him asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfHDtoRI9E
"The managers would believe him if talks about what happened the day before yesterday at the hotel," said Daniel.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeadoaOcg7T
"The time WINNER came to see us," said Christine as the realisation settled in.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fqWNY5Plh
"And they would take his word because he has Daesung and Seungri to back him up," I said.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL87KfhNz4N
"And also because he's 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1PGhqvKEw
our senior," said Zoey as she folded her arms. "That's how he even 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqAOH2VvWb
managed to set this meeting up in the first place."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVoJ2LXwSQ
"Well, you Toxins did your homework," said G-Dragon.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0q1wrKK7pJ
"Why do I feel like I'm in court?" Seungyoon asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2PGy6LMnw
"It's because we are and we have to take defence," I said.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7wZGUJkLb
"Can't we just settle this matter somehow?" Jinwoo asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8Yz80J0Ve
"Why do I feel I just entered an episode of Suits?" Mike asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISaS15fNoG
I turned to look at Mike and I wasn't the only who did. Mike shrugged his shoulders.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaS5UGTRtYm
"What? I watch Suits from time to time."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWp0mVP1i9
"What will it take so that you won't tell our managers?" Seunghoon asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74kr8s1Yfv
G-Dragon smiled. He had 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zmGMzdrIi
us right where he wanted. I was so not liking this right now. When I 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9VLJbRDbd
thought we would be dealing with our managers, we actually were meant to1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOdqGqEDWM
deal with G-Dragon instead.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRZf0gkgui
"I'm glad you brought that up because I was thinking of the same thing," said G-Dragon.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXczfS42uL
"What do you want?" I asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQYGbDh9Nm
G-Dragon looked at me as1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGf28dohDk
he bit his lip. I looked straight at him in the eye wondering why he 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gMSPJUs2q
was doing all of this. I had a hunch, but I had to be sure of it before I1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNuyVFFqyO
came to any conclusions.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtd0tFr92D
"To make things clear 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTDpwwM1Ck
with all of you," said G-Dragon. "I might have brought up this idea of a1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCuiSJoIzi
meeting in the first place concerning BTW, but the managers had been 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EkQmV2EIW
thinking about doing the same thing."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefobmK2YO1
"That still doesn't change the fact that all this was your idea," said Seungyoon.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oDYCu5d6I
"You're right. And just to give you a heads up, the managers aren't going to let BTW be a group."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2bZgqRjvS
"We already know that," said Zoey. "We all had a feeling that it would come to this."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTA1K6yD4yF
"And we will not allow it," said Rosé.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLHtERsC9R
"Most of us are up for this idea and some of the fans too," said Mino.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYpHYspABw
"That's the problem," said G-Dragon. "You guys aren't going to let it slide and this why I came here with a deal."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xQhAxafg5
"You want us to agree or else you tell our managers everything," I said.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXGQvygeA3
"All's fair in love and 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDfqDQmNil
war." G-Dragon gave a huge smile. "You guys are stubborn and they might 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJct4F3Dfk
just agree to your whims. So just accept what they bring up and we can 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkYvkF8sj7
go and pretend we never even had this meeting."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtP5TbUa0r2
"Come on," Christine 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1Ft0V5pUs
complained. "As if BTW is even going to be an ongoing thing. The Toxins 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69bgGoyHKM
won't be here for long and you know it."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOU9twbozD
"Christine's right," said Lisa. "I don't think it's wrong if we make BTW temporarily."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgN66CG4H0i
"BTW is nothing but a 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDVyWb7ruV
collaborative group on my part," I said. "It's almost in the same way 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFBv0nRtHr
artists collaborate. Like the way The Toxins and BigBang did."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdyvwTZtJC
"I firmly agree with Sam," said Jisoo.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbp1SmPeXZ
"We all do," said Seunghoon. "Just imagine what BTW can do."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwg7SpVHj5d
"Who knows, we might just have our own show!" Zoey said excitedly.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXNYhrZR26
"Which won't last long by the way," pointed out Mike.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEQ4XE1Nz0
"And it's going to attract a lot of media attention like it did yesterday," said Jinwoo.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJV9pMqnmKR
"We might just make BTW involved in market promotions too," said Mino.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqrSUk5j6S
"That's being business minded and I like it," said Jennie.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3H8BROcWRK
"See, there's a lots of things BTW can do though it might only be for a short while," I said as I smirked looking at G-Dragon.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIhZ1G7xO0
"Well, you guys can dream all you want but it isn't going to happen," said G-Dragon.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1IvB7HQLS
Upon saying that, the 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8y0rVxCQl
door to the conference room flew open. I turned to the door and coming 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6jQsFn6gp
in were the two managers and Lee. For a moment I grew silent with 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpznluczV5
everyone else in the room due to their sudden presence. Those who were 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGwBVP8DqV
seated stood up.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXB401KBDdN
I gulped. I hope the 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97HCchneim
managers hadn't heard the entire conversation. Especially the part where1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfop0xsa39
G-Dragon was to get us in trouble by telling them the truth.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWsgXFg1aL
The two managers had 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zkJeqEUjC
their eyes on me at first and I felt they had finally figured what was 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvW7BnmFv0N
going on. I wanted to break into a sweat when they looked at me. But I 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NYyfO9JD2
kept myself calm telling myself that I maybe over thinking and nothing 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxu6iUtJfT
is wrong.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRMs3dTUhg
"Good that you're all 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbaJmH3H3Y
here," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We have a few things to discuss. Zoey, 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpT41iSGW0O
Seunghoon, Sam, Jiyong, take your seats, please. And everyone else too."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhpuR9lKNv
I have always hated it 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyV6TtGPjj
when managers have that serious tone in their voice that shook every 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5vAEYa9JE
cell in your body. I quickly took the chair in front of me and G-Dragon 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcISLglG4j
sat to my left and Seunghoon to my right. For some reason, I felt really1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1d9h5SlfNh
uncomfortable sitting in between them. The others sat back down on 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiOD6l7xWf
their seats.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBru0wHgu4
The two managers and Lee1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXuIovFrAH
stood at the other end of the table and we all had our eyes on them. I 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflRz4gZRz3
started to silently tap my fingers on the polished wooden table as I bit1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9wJY2XpoQ
my lower lip. I turned to look at the others and even though some were 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEbIR15fkY
trying to put up a straight face, I could tell they were as nervous as I1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBPLPRdkqi
was.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6dZfOekjI
"Everyone in here looks really tense," said Collins. "As though you weren't the ones laughing about yesterday at Time Square."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Rm2ZEtljy
"Well, we all know why we are," I said as I looked at Collins. "And we know it's something serious."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgqceUEXE0
"You're right, it is serious," said Yang Hyun-suk.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceM744b9R1
Zoey sighed loudly in 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiFB23u2je
frustration and everyone turned to look at her. "Please just say it 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMp3m1nqYM
already," she said. "'You created a huge mess yesterday, blah, blah, 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdurLG2NAT
blah you weren't supposed to meet, blah, blah, blah and so BTW was just a1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6J1dOYkyUu
one day thing.' Some of us just want to go back to the hotel and watch 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKW4Eg8Zbk
some K-drama to forget the horrible aftermath of this meeting."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6AJYsWjWo
The two managers 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTPcKGc90o
chuckled at Zoey's response and I couldn't figure out why they found it 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jwBuNz4pB
so amusing when most of us in this room were grieving in the inside. 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSupN93ztC
That was so not cool.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcveVrq0PR
"You never cease to amaze me, Zoey," said Yang Hyun-suk. "And you're right. This BTW thing was nothing but a one time thing."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVDdbnoLjV
"Here we go," muttered Jessie as she leaned back on her chair and closed her eyes in despair.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCXyRfqPNz
"But that doesn't mean we can't reconsider it," said Collins.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6R403AIy3O
My ears perked up when 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIVkcag6MZ
Collins said the word "reconsider." And I bet the others were all 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡct6kSntce0
attentive too. Could it be that they might just turn things around?1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqnjfsCbsu
Seunghoon cleared his throat. "What do you mean?" he asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlT1De3z5k
"We heard you outside 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGS91mGDI0
the door discussing or rather debating about making BTW a real group 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgey1O3QYc
thing even if it's just temporary," said Yang Hyun-suk.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeMXHZKGws
"And as stood by the door, we reconsidered giving BTW a shot," said Collins.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0P3hvyfqQ8
"For real?" I couldn't believe my ears.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuTsv7b5ej
"Yes, Sam. For real," 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcMAfvIlEj
said Yang Hyun-suk. "But don't get your hopes up because we have to go 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMDgnnc82P
through further scrutiny about this decision."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrewwskzfWF
I smiled. Even if they 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0K4OqiryE2
were saying we shouldn't get our hopes up, it was quiet clear they were 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtJ5L5rqTc
up for the idea themselves and that meant BTW was a go.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GLB9YHxa5
There was an exciting 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhqzjoh8Qv
feeling in the air now that the whole BTW crew were all rejuvenated by 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUOlQfxTun
the exciting news. We were all smiling to ourselves and already I could 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLVi9MZyg3
see that Zoey and Lisa who sat next to each other were ready to clap 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQec5ACQGo4
their hands but they hid them under the table so that the managers 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JKTZNwZHM
wouldn't notice as they clapped silently.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkSlLNvAcH
"Are you sure about this?" G-Dragon asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ec8YJN2N5
I turned to my other 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4IVNdGjdD
side and I realised that the whole time we had been talking to our 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjgHGjLwOp
managers, I had been so oblivious that GD was sitting next to me. Maybe 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6QNHAPf8W
it's because right now, he felt like a traitor and his presence right 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfLfnSxHNT
now, didn't matter.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNMEU6EPYM
"You heard them when 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnGmtIoyQu
they talked to you about it," said Yang Hyun-suk. "In such cases, it's 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZK1gPiCXS
good to be business minded and see how all this goes."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA31IMjjW8c
"So, you all agree to this, right?" Mike asked with his eyebrow raised just to be sure.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqAcSR2sFX
"To be perfectly clear, yes, we agree," said Collins.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxSPjeX4Oo
"And so even if we tried to object to it you would refuse us to do so because the decision came from you, right?" I asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fCg6K6zdv
This time it was me, or I1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlQPsGbt3G
can say, BTW, trapping G-Dragon. G-Dragon turned to look at me and he 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApsry2f6CS
knew it. The managers' plan in the first place was not to make BTW an 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRVrs0eLj8
official group and if we refused, they would G-Dragon would tell them 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFl2iREBKs
our secret and there would be no BTW. And due to the condition G-Dragon 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwuUiOgAie
had laid out for us in the first place, there was simply no need for him1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhymMlFJRu
to reveal our little secret anymore. All he told us to do was to agree 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADqbVbq5CD
to whatever the managers' decision was and we were doing just that. And 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6pZCIPBEq
there was no going back on his word. Look who's laughing now.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZ3HnXdNUQ
"Of course you should agree because whatever we decide is an order," said Yang Hyun-suk.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNi8M9fXEf
"Yep, an order is an order," said Mino with a huge grin on his face.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74D5Tworj1
"I really thought they wouldn't make BTW official," said Jisoo. "Now that it is, I agree."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTDoG9hbZU
"We all agree," said Daniel.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gE5WJ1fqv
"Hold your horses, people," said G-Dragon. "It hasn't been made official."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0KV8uTqHn
"But just because it 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy89Hi4n7rq
hasn't, doesn't mean that it will," said Seunghoon as he looked over at 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZt0syfr4Bl
G-Dragon with a victory smile on his face. That made me smile even more.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetN7evDs4t
"Okay, so that's settled1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QN6afhVwm
then," said Collins. "We will discuss for now and see what the seniors 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFaYGaNV4t
have to say. Once they agree, we will begin with the paper work and make1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTQUhM9bU8
BTW official."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVP02FVVahC
"Of course they will agree," said Rosé. "Who wouldn't?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXruNW3hs7h
I noticed that most of 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8C0veTLvqS
the eyes on the table especially from BTW flew to G-Dragon. Mine also 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV91ZX0apyb
did the same. Luckily, the managers never noticed a thing. But Lee did 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmmTJ4lNoz
when she looked at me and I grinned.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaN8oOiqoU2
"Okay, then," said Yang Hyun-suk as he rubbed his hands. "Now that's been taken care of, you may go but, with one condition."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrcdtpeFlx
There was dead silence in the room when Yang Hyun-suk mentioned he had one condition. My heart started to race.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PA7pIx5i2
"Before we make BTW 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFFyiGeCgP
official, may I advise that you three groups don't meet each other too 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ780nQJGtMQ
often," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We don't want to raise a lot of people's 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTfiW1kiAp
hopes thinking that the group might be official so you better keep it 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhN8dlECLd9
low for a while. Is that good?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XBDaP1982
"Fine by me," said Seungyoon. "As long as we can ask for your permission from time to time."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdEcnj5WwF
"That's fair enough," 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWJ5GrOchT
said Collins. "But today, you won't go and hang out after this because 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zJ7zLQv0g
already there are too many of your fans lurking around hoping for BTW to1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Q60VsI46M
be official and they can use anything just to let other people believe 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoP28grAhy
so."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFq3Ni6JQcY
"So you want to crush 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnqclXpevJ
their hopes and later surprise them when you make the group official," I1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9KxgtJW7d
said while I nodded my head. "I had to admit, that's a pretty good 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eLX1aeNGc
strategy."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxU6rPtp2Jm
"Then if all is well and1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQhnXrIqiY
good, we will be leaving then," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We will keep you 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZndlgBdaMR
updated and not a word on social media."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmOo5DW4eZ
I stood up from my seat 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbx2UjNKV0R
and everyone else did the same. As our managers made their way for the 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxhffpyQBJ
door with Lee I couldn't help but smile and just as they were about to 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwrwjB0hb3
walk out, I stopped them.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKEDQ65PAd
"Wait," I said and the two managers turned to look at me.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRKmAC5xjO
"What is it, Sam?" Collins asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BPx5XDcxX
"Thank you," I beamed and I bowed. "Kamsahabnida (감사합니다)."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gsPRrgRGA
The rest of BTW also bowed and also said thank you. The two managers smiled at our lovely gesture.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZPJa5wV43
"If it weren't for that I might just declare BTW official today," said Yang Hyun-suk.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwL2pZAhUE
"You would?" Zoey, Jessie, Christine and Jisoo asked at the same time. I rolled my eyes and shook my head.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFLyAwIWty
"No." Yang Hyun-suk 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaykgX1K64J
smiled even more and he walked out of the room with Collins. Lee waited a1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy45qHdtTW0
few seconds by the door until the managers disappeared down the hall.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3j2JAkn0Nn
"Congratulations, BTW," she said quietly. She looked really happy. "You did it!"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIwTCDc6l4
"Another music collaboration for The Toxins," I said with a smile.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTtjZb7wJ6
"And triple more of the fun," said Mike.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfg8akBZKO
"Now that I totally agree," said Daniel as he gave his brother a high five.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡul2PntCyd9
"This is like the best 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKau0kBnLO6
news ever," said Zoey. "Thank you so much, Sam for making me feel like 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfJOqn0KGt
all hope was lost when actually things turned out alright."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUt3OBvuF10
"I don't think you should be thanking Sam for that," said Jinwoo.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCEW7yeXbs
"Jinwoo's right," I said. "We wouldn't have been able to get our managers to reconsider if it wasn't for G-Dragon."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnK4dL7h7T3
The room grew silent as all eyes were on Jiyong. I looked at him through the corner of my eye and smiled.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnzUd8dZuz
"I've to admit you played me very well," said G-Dragon with a look of defeat on his face. "Congrats."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPzzT6lw47
"All this wouldn't have happened if you hadn't tried to trap us in the first place," said Seunghoon.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMHbFMr4lS
"I knew there was a 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXnu7sWe20
reason for G-Dragon to have called for this meeting in the first place,"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43WkCtOOca
said Lee. She shook her head in disappointment as she looked at 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLxW2024hB
G-Dragon.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Esd59CmrY
"You knew?" Christine asked.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsztQL4beyr
"I got to find out when I went to see the managers."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbAy9Fw5NA
"But everything turned in our favour in the end," said Lisa. "So, I'm not even that mad at him at all."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWFb3cdYPa
"You just got lucky because the managers happen to be eavesdropping on our conversation at the wrong time," said G-Dragon.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUmafVq16y
"At the right time on our part," said Mino.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VYhQKMvdZ
"I'll just say, I'm mad at you, GD. But since you did us this huge favour, I forgive you," said Zoey as she smiled.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZYJUaIkzm
"Thank you, G-Dragon!" BlackPink said all together. "We love you!"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1ti9fYRu3
"Well, you guys can tell1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJs5nfapJJ
me how this all went down from the beginning, but right now, you all 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrx5t7uzSOO
have to go," said Lee. "And I'm supposed to see to it that you all 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxENIxdF88y
aren't going to go into the same car."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEC6f8NrCe
"Don't worry, we won't disobey our managers after all this," I said. "Can I have a talk with G-Dragon alone, please?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcTqPyc1q8
Everyone else started to1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡff2KMwTcsW
slowly step out of the room and I made sure to say bye to BlackPink and1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMWocsRbVa
WINNER. When everyone had left, Lee closed the door behind her. It was 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFluRArozR
only G-Dragon and I.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7EoUCvPdB
"I'm mad at you," I started.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1sotgLzCd
"I know," he replied. "Sam....."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjqgFkBROt
"Save it." I held my 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmBewVkWD0
hand up to silence him. "You know, you reminded me of all those times 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbV321deQ0K
you and I used to get into a fight and it seems you're bringing it all 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CdtNJLBen
back. I thought we were past that but now it's like you want to bring up1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13iV8nVp16
a war again."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQBpgUQf1X
"I'm not trying to bring up a war."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5VLaPdNAb
"You put us in a horrible position and we had to fight against you. That my friend, is called a war."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7i7bwzt4gb
"Look, Sam, you've already won and I admit that trying to rattle you out to our managers was wrong of me."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaG911uazn
I folded my arms. "Great! You realise it now when everything backfired on you and you didn't get what you want."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmsQZH0g3j
G-Dragon looked at me 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxLd8ce1Y4
and me at him. Right now, I was fuming and I felt like I was going to 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDUOz9p33C
burst. I never knew he would turn on us like this and it hurt me like a 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcxwAid8aG
stab in the heart.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRT8z53ALv
"You're right. I realise it now because I didn't get what I want. But I want us to forget that all this ever happened."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84v5N0w837
"You know, the others 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUkRzpEtxm
might forgive you because of the outcome but I am so mad that you could 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuKegPkFQb
ever do this just because you don't like it when we went out to hang out1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyMTnHAH1K
with WINNER yesterday."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtg4iMA8tR
"If you're trying to say that I'm jealous, then yes, I am."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbcQsPmSkD
I nodded my head. What I1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtMM2wxQAe
thought from the beginning the time I came to the conference room was 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zk7DteQUn
true. He was jealous. Not just of The Toxins hanging out with WINNER but1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNyvDMjVeE
of Seunghoon and I.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOgNULtTGx
"You know you and I can 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucvxA5L7TG
only be friends and that relationship can't go any further than that. 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRt3gSjBYR
It's the same thing with Seunghoon. And until you get over it, I suggest1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dBrWrG8BJ
you find a way for me to forgive you or this friendship might just go 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsbdJvDtnA
down the rocks."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡih6gzstmGA
I headed for the door 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ktSGKF7vO
without a second thought and I didn't even get to look at him one. As 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6AgpRPbki
soon as I found myself in the hall heading for the elevator, there stood1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIkgtwGexU
Zoey, waiting.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYO1kEjGN7
"I'm guessing you put him in his place," said Zoey as I approached her.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnlHj4FTqf
"I sure hope so," I said1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkL6mg0cXCq
with a sigh. I felt like I had just arm wrestled with a body builder 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydu8BK8IHI
and emerged victorious, but at the same time came out exhausted.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdQK0ZYHRY
"When you're this mad, trust me, you do know how to put people in their place."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBAIrmQk1B
Zoey turned around and pressed the button to summon the elevator. When the elevator came, we stepped in and the doors closed.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4Ys0YSzd1
"I guess you figured out what G-Dragon and I talked about last night," said Zoey as she looked at me.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE83Cy9cbjm
"It wasn't that hard to figure it out," I said.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWylNRX2Pi
"Just like it wasn't hard for you to know that G-Dragon would be here. Sometimes your mind works like a supercomputer."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMl8HOM5a2
"You know computers are 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2Bxcdo1yu
just dumb machines, right?" I looked at Zoey. "They only do what they do1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKmoiEXO24
because they have commands installed in them to work as they are 1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeiSgrcaEZ
supposed to."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS023RUv1FM
"You're right. You're like a detective who plays by her own rules and always connects the dots."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDduroADCQ
I smiled. "You always call me that."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrPtXsQ3dT
"Ya, because you're smart too."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO87nmy599p
The elevator reached the ground floor and we came out of the elevator finding ourselves in the lobby.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJm70fmxdsg
"You know we should celebrate our victory," said Zoey.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQ8lhwkwP2
"How?" I asked. "The group hasn't been made official and we can't celebrate when the three groups aren't together."1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PrRrSSLex
"We can figure something out," said Zoey. "We won't have to be all together in one place, you know?"1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWXBdLd2eF
"I think I've an idea," I said as we walked out into the parking lot heading to the car.1070Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMujF3BlEL
"I knew you would," said Zoey as she wrapped her arm around my shoulders.
