Hanging out at Times 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAIuBnH0QcB
Square was super duper fun yesterday. The positive reactions we got from962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECkpgsSjr3
the fans sent us trending all over Twitter within hours and soon, 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnUXlv5D4K
everyone got to know that BTW meant BlackPink, The Toxins and WINNER.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAMo7S6t3v
But that didn't matter. 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIud6W5b8fr
The three groups together with Lee and TOP had a ton of fun stuff to do 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPL3IqK1Y6
at Times Square soon after we had lunch. We first went to watch a movie 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2Knos8d43
on the largest screen in the world, which was amazing. Then we went and 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtrmnwvODm
had fun at the "I Like Dalgi Children's Theme Park", meant for little 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4gWIOqq0i
kids. But hey, who says grown ups can't have a little fun too? Don't 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZQUMG0cN3
worry, we weren't actually playing on the swings or anything. We 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZPy3etPXn
actually played around with the adorable kids.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lfdnD18wn
There were plenty of 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ469hORBs02
open outdoor spaces like the ecology park, a fountain and a rooftop 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgpJIzVASa
garden that we visited. We even took group pictures and selfies with the962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyN8BTpy94
beautiful nature around us. And we managed to get pictures with a few 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVNUQf6chN
fans too.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWIU4blkby
The time we were done 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpMpa8khjm
having fun at Times Square was in the evening and it was completely 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV92L9dt7kG
unbelievable when we stepped out into the parking lot and found three 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3S7pX8jdNh
black SUV cars, for each of the three groups waiting to pick us up. What962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FVzHX8SNh
made the scene even more dramatic yet terrifying, was that our two 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBdm18Dt7D
managers were there, waiting for us. They had received the message 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEh7kRcxwG
through social media alright and they didn't look too happy that we had 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bFYLSoXdV
all met and decided to hang out. It was surprising to them that we had 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxE9K3Lh0j
all met "by coincidence." The rest of us never said a word about how 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88uGt7Pk0k
everything came to be. Especially with WINNER visiting The Toxins the 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wACJ2iVE6
previous day, of course.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlM7gVC7xh
As much as the managers 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8p4pSpVpP
kept their cool and didn't say a word afterwards meant they weren't 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykXpzIv8kd
really mad at all and we managed to drive away from Times Square without962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZbSv2p5oj
any complaints. I knew my plan would work but I also knew we were in 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4A6XHXOyW3
for a serious talk from our two managers after they take this all in.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupK95woCLz
Right now, this very 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjklQaC0QCj
morning, I was bending over, tying my shoelaces and wondering what they 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XCNjTQO25
could possibly want to talk to the three groups about as we meet with 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOd1WBdK3U
them. Collins told us a few minutes ago during breakfast that he and 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsyCo2DWza
Yang Hyun-suk want the three groups to go to YG and talk. I hope it 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejt4DR2puD
isn't that serious because yesterday, they didn't seem so mad at all. 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkuK2cdyZp
But why was I so worried? I couldn't figure out what was bothering me 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVAKPos5nk
and I just couldn't take it.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWmY8HCqW1
I stood up straight after tying my shoelaces and I noticed Zoey approach me as she came out of the bathroom.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEU3MnY8loN
"Do you think they are mad?" Zoey asked as she stood a few feet away from me.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1AScDgVIX
"You're worried, aren't you?" I asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8LzmgxZl8
"Aren't you?" Zoey folded her arms.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqngwXmU3q
I sighed. If Zoey could be as worried as I was, the rest of The Toxins were too.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqcInuLKrQ
"I am," I said. "It's pretty troublesome that they would want us all to meet at YG."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKEPssVEw7
"I thought you said your plan would work."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqOyJ5RfSx
"In some way, it did, because they would have been so furious at us, but they weren't."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOtfWheIcS
"Do you think they would want to talk about this BTW thing?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvGth3Gyf5
I felt like slapping my 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCrK4AVSkj
forehead because I realised I was such a complete idiot. Of course. BTW.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLAqdRsWvD
Now that Zoey mentioned it, it all made sense. The managers would 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlQ42d8Q1d
probably want to talk about BTW because as far as the three groups 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjQGX0cZ7Y
meeting "by coincidence" was concerned, they had completely brushed it 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg039n9kfIn
off.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIR0qk31uI
"Ya, you're right," I said. "They obviously want to talk about that."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1w5WIkBLXk
"Do you think they would want to make it a real thing?" Zoey was getting anxious.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡau8kBxE5IO
"I would hold that thought for a while if I were you and see what the managers have to say."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UR0nRdyiB
Zoey raised an eyebrow at me. "You're worried that they wouldn't agree, aren't you?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNL9iLJgwzv
I shrugged. She read my 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGHpis82zz
mind really well. "I can't lie. I thought about it yesterday and now 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6KJuwAd3b
that you bought up the BTW thing, I realise it's what's been bothering 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AZ4ISM7AY
me the whole time."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBX7FJWhAyx
I sat down on my bed as 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxhYeVjzsx
my mind kept spinning around the issue. I shouldn't have told Zoey how I962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYB1h6Tr2aM
felt about all this but I had to let it out somehow.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMuiveHaTJ
"You know, you should have given us a heads up about it, Sam," said Zoey as she also sat on her bed facing me.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5E2ErYMnF
"Gosh, you really should962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFJ9BK5ujr
have seen the looks on all of your faces when we were having fun 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3Nhnt4eC1
yesterday. I just couldn't burst your bubble and tell you whats likely 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFo1N1jm6kP
to happen to BTW. We all weren't going to enjoy ourselves when it really962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktOP5vw7TS
mattered so I kept quiet. I for one even forgot about it too."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOprjXpUhP
"Ya, you're right not to have brought it up or I would've killed you."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKwip1SQrH
"Like you almost did to Mike?" I smirked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJhYa8WsJI
"Mike is annoying 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYTjanVkye
sometimes," said Zoey as she expressed her irritation with her hands as 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uX3FNB3YN
though they were bear claws. "You could scratch his eyes out."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIrKQgk0wG
"You've been planning to do that ever since we became best friends and he knew the essence of being annoying around you."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa05JY7SHjZ
"You're right. I should burn him instead."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIo5SJBNi1R
I laughed. "The drama between you two never gets old."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJt1nM74X98
"And what about the drama between you and Seunghoon?" Zoey's eyebrows were raised and she had a crooked smile on her face.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pwqyuZOmD
"Don't even go there," I warned as I pointed a finger at her.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VXJBJReCB
"Sorry, but just so you 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeVzmDx0TA
know, all the guys on social media were kind of jealous when he posted 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6KNkBOFuP
that pic of you and him together."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbiNwqL61yF
"Pff! That's not true." I rolled my eyes.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡma2QRqdZ2P
"Well, you can ask Seungri and TOP who made a comment on Instagram last night."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAK8CBdN7B
I blushed and at the 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWSNEHHM8J
same time felt so confused. Zoey had a silly smile on her face and I 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqG9GOCQl2l
couldn't tell whether she did that to intimidate me or there was some 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVNS3hHDT2
other hidden agenda.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBX4srne24
"You weren't on Instagram last night, were you?" she asked this time with a surprised look on her face.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡws52KclsVu
"I was," I said as I stared at the ceiling to avoid her eyes."But only for a little while."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUxwsa9n7w
"Or you weren't really there at all. If you did, you wouldn't have that look on your face."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyW8aAL5Kp
I sighed in surrender. 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RNaKpdwox
"Fine. You caught me. I logged out of Instagram because I wanted to. 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FTNgAOwZI
Besides, I knew all the notifications I was bound to receive were going 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWMD5dtLBI
to be endless, so I did what I had to do."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KKGV4bPtc
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."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtGK8TRsym
"You know me already, Zoey. I like social media when it's necessary."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6H69Lg6AYq
"And hate it when you hit the headlines. Ya, I know you very well."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJ7qCyqNuH
"Okay, enough. What happened on Instagram last night?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4X8jiy5Iw
Zoey had an excited look962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELJQ75R9Hs
on her face that for a moment, I was surprised that she was ever even 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RGdbFJEvq
worried about us meeting with the managers at YG. Something hot was 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4oqxldSQ1
cooking about Seunghoon and I being called a couple. And it could 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiuw8qWOX8
clearly show all over her face.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHECn7bbeB3
"There was a debate last night whether you made a compatible girlfriend for Seungyoon," said Zoey as she excitedly bit her lip.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1FYQZwDBv
I shook my head. "And?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5FUi3KFrk
Zoey folded her arms, 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGsNUiEOn9
still smiling. "Some people thought you and Seunghoon made a lovely 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gixdNI4Fj
couple, but others, mostly guys, didn't."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNaczqaAuA
"Hold that thought. This962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JBZq5sYAn
wouldn't have come up unless someone said something about the two of us962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikLNUbEcBD
after Seunghoon posted that picture."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDqLrYVOpx
"Don't look at me." Zoey looked the other way. "I didn't say anything."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvCFHZCoBh
I snapped my fingers. "Seunghoon."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkMpjo4u7E
"Bingo!" Zoey clapped her hands.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaipd86BTR
"Gosh, what's wrong with him?" I rubbed my forehead feeling like I might just develop a headache.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDNMB767Cd
"He's a fan. Is that so wrong?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQoGRhzja6
"Well, he hid in our closet."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsfJNUYJVJ
"That was just the closet. Even I would do that for my bias."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmFJZsUFNB
"Wow!" I leaned back in surprise. "Did you just say bias?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEdEA6Vjq3
"Ya, why?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUFqqkSCI0
"Looks like we just 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFP5zTE13T
developed the k-pop culture where we refer to our favourite celebrity, 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhEBIRzlff
whom we consider perfect as our bias."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBUiwRzHyc
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."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEhexvzRBn
"But anyway, Seunghoon hiding in my closet wasn't the only thing that he has done."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBFJ2I1wZs
"What do you mean? You 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfR6U6Lsli4
got to meet Seunghoon for the first time when he jumped out of our 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1tNrxf2S8
closet. What else could he possibly have done before that?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl426Og46IA
"We had a few encounters before though I never knew it was him."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPDsD2XMLb
Zoey's eyes bulged out in surprise. "He was stalking you?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBg9UBZ0vG5
"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."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0GDQKzNS9
"When did that happen and when were you ever going to tell me?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6fvHma1J0
"I wanted to but I kept 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwp5VeftEhz
it to myself. And when other issues started to arise, especially with 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHuCnZEB7c
Jehan, I even forgot that I even had a stalker."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9P5hn4x4HC
"Jehan. Don't remind me," said Zoey as she rolled her eyes.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPFMMfIMBD
"Ya, I shouldn't. But now you know. And for the record, don't tell anybody."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwwbacooMk
"My lips on this one are sealed. I won't tell anyone, not even G-Dragon."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagcPu54U1S
I looked at Zoey with a questioning look. "Why would you mention him in all of this?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnthRTT9zR
Zoey quickly got up from the bed. "Pretend I never said that."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbd1scheu2Z
I quickly stood up and 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJIhyrb1qP
Zoey made a beeline for the door. I followed her and just before she 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1FpCsuYOJ
could hold the door knob, I reached her, held her by the hair and pulled962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcbeTv4oBQ
her back.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgnp3nfr9s
"Ow, ow, ow!" Zoey yelled as she held the back of her head from where I pulled at her hair.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMJKWOtHbB
"Zoey, you're going to 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnk64fui9P
tell me right now what you mean," I said, pulling her hair even more. 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoqPfLsaJI
"Or else, I'll pull your hair out and you will not think of dying your 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxz6O89Rbvs
own hair pink in the next ten years."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVmrYr1IjH
"Ouch! Sam! You're hurting me!" Zoey complained. "I was just joking around."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgCjHYLdr8
"You're lying."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGX3Xl298B
"I'm telling the truth!"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6Sahu04Mw
"Come on, Zoey. You personally had a talk with G-Dragon, didn't you?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlhZ9CcX3E
I felt Zoey pause as she stopped struggling to get away. "How did you know?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjfpPw4FwK
"I know because I know. So, what did you two talk about?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3prDGBbbU
"I can't tell you that."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqh8RB5Y4j
"Why?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTR459vFoQ
"Because it's 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UZxSopwTa
confidential. Owwwuch!" I made sure I tightened my fist even more under 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIYsJySq3y
her hair pulling at her roots. "That really hurts!"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQUvwtNAAo
The door in front of us suddenly flew open. Lee came in the room and paused upon seeing the scene in front of her.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhLHQTC0jl
"Is it me or is Sam trying to braid your hair?" Lee asked Zoey with an unbelievable look on her face.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3ljztByDz
"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."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiioNYjwNN
"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.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8IA0Kke5R
"You can tell me about your drama later," said Lee. "The car's here and we have to go."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxCeJcgvMJ
Zoey whined as though she was about to cry. "Do we really have to go now?" she asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUFod50xXR
"I know it feels like you're going for a trial, but you don't have a choice."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbHcNZAflF
"Lee's right," I said. "We do have to hear our managers out. Though we all know it won't be pretty."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9b2aBUT0D
"Fine," said Zoey. "Before we get there, I better prepare for the worst."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JjdZY2Gxe
"Think positive," said Lee. "You can never know what might happen."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81qo76kKbp
"No, Sam's already spoiled my mood with her own premonitions."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7ZTYrVPW4
"And she did the right thing," said Lee with a smile.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBht4Zc1ARq
I playfully rolled my 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo76Lvu9yyQ
eyes and didn't say a word as I walked out of the room with Zoey and Lee962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBcf1Cafqk
following suit. I found the other Toxins waiting by the elevator. They 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg13vb8QRRT
also looked worried.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9clO29gME
"You all look like you're going to a funeral," said Zoey.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJYl0kJqbV
"And you were sounding like your hair's caught fire a minute ago," said Mike, folding his arms and looking at Zoey.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTA3HY3h6ck
"I fell on the floor." Zoey looked at Mike with wide eyes.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbX2xL84XaH
"Never mind. Just like you guys, we are also worried," I said.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz19DrbXn9E
"Where is Collins?" Daniel asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82U22hbaH1
"He left soon after breakfast," Lee answered.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYwmEmgjur
The five of us turned to look at Lee. "What?" we said at the same time.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFfEjUmNbX
"He left early," said Lee, shrugging her shoulders962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthQX8Kznjk
"Why? Is he really that mad at us that he wants to go ahead to prepare a death trap?" Zoey asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJvBI5hTxb
"Death trap? Seriously, Zoey?" Christine asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOE6Xnp918G
Zoey shrugged. "Couldn't think of any other way to say it."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcj8lolpYPR
"Okay, first of all," 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaodDvdL1B
said Lee grabbing our attention. "There is no death trap. Secondly, 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3y8EVL5uvh
after we came back from Times Square, I personally talked to Collins and962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9i2ESDfgDl
he wasn't mad at you."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscl4rBq34q
"Then do you know why he wants BlackPink, WINNER and us to meet?" Mike asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyLQ3IiSlT
"That, he couldn't say."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KwDmNAyQ8
"I thought you were his assistant," said Daniel.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgzPQz211q
"You know, Collins doesn't tell me everything. He treats me like I'm part of you guys too."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8O77Lf2cDC
"Welcome to the monkey side," said Zoey as she rolled her eyes and scratched her head.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVM5qAVj5M4
"Ya, I now know how that feels. But right now we better go."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlLjAh9qHm
Christine pressed the 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLg8qCosxZA
button to the elevator and when we all got in, we headed downstairs and 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycd8kWQRC3
went in the black SUV waiting for us. There were a few fans who stood 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmaamOMxit
outside the hotel premises and for a moment, it felt a little awkward 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYjZ1IzwKh
that they were here in the nearly hours of the morning. I know it's 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3p8YBsmtT
normal for every fan to do so but today I couldn't help but feel that 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtjl8zCjYW
something was a bit odd about it. Then I remembered BTW.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61b5vycZks
We got to YG right on 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2CmjVjlly
time and immediately we stepped into the lobby, we found all four 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoh2eReVxn6
members of WINNER heading for the elevator. Looked like they had also 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwOQJOd3kE
arrived a few seconds earlier.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6OPzngH9h
"Hey, guys!" Zoey greeted loudly so that she could grab their attention.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWFTKVY7M6
"Zoey!" Mino turned around and had a huge smile on his face. "Hey, guys."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbz0nqeMrNK
"Hi," the four of us responded and not in a way people would like to hear.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bSKOwfIMa
"You all look down," said Seungyoon. "What's wrong?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsOJqh1sPC
"It's nothing really," I said. "We just don't like how this meeting is going to turn out."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEo5E7q9d2
The four members of WINNER all muttered at the same time.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSNoou3fo1
"Guess we're not the only ones feeling that way," said Jinwoo.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRAbdy9QYw
"Are BlackPink already here?" Mike asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCWkDWObdD
"The receptionist says they are waiting in the conference room," said Seunghoon.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fA1BT82T8
"Okay," said Daniel as he rubbed his hands together. "Let's go meet our fate."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zsH2QwESi
"If this comes out as a death trap, I'm going to say I told you so," said Zoey.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQSLlNqkMD
"There will be no such 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHE6d5bYSO
thing," said Christine. "You're just exaggerating what might come up 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2Q2pMTFok
that we won't like at all so you refer to it as a death trap."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlB0k9x7Xnm
"And you're making it 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbRfSooPkj
sound ten times worse than it already is, Zoey," said Seungyoon, as he 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQM0JrshyjJ
pouted his lip and scratched his head.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkt92WcjkLZ
"Wonder where that came from," said Mino.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjhHzk5k8x
"Trust me, you don't 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfneHEjOcSj
want to know," said Lee as she pulled out her phone from her purse. "You962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkzYz0iIvg
guys go ahead and I'll give your managers a call that you're here."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunrrkGoMEf
"You aren't coming with us?" I asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGXc8zmnY4
"I might have joined the 'monkey's club' but I'm not going to be there when they drop a bombshell."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0Rqo80xJu
"See, death trap!" Zoey emphasised.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQCyWoLUUG
"Zoey!" everyone muttered loudly that Zoey quickly covered her mouth and looked away.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07o1FlOCLW
"Look, whether they are 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZEtIqidLD
going to say what we might not like, a death trap as Zoey likes to put 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLCuWw7u9z
it. Or not, you'll be fine," said Lee. "We all have gone through this 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEL4Co6gJn
where you never like the decisions the managers have to make."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnp2vVv8hj
"Please, don't remind us," said Mike as he rubbed his forehead.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvWev2zefZ
"Either way," Lee continued, "you better go. You don't want to be late."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWuYugKlH5
"Won't you wish us luck?" I asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEk4il3n81E
"You don't need it when you already know what's going to happen."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCWo5KqOCA
I gave Lee a sad smile 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5lktK5y6O
and turned towards the elevator. I started to feel the way I always felt962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsJFZDkONy
whenever you had to hear a decision that might just cost something in 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrj1gdiJtl
your life. Like suicide.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtV2b1skRuw
We started our way 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm48Sf7hrAk
towards the elevator when all of the sudden, I stopped when I realised 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDFpFJowkA
that I didn't have my phone with me. I checked the pockets of my jumper 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FSKEAxxyl
and my jean trousers. Nothing.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkEjNtiQae
"Gosh, I think I left my phone in the car," I said. "You guys go ahead, I'll catch up."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmawFPNHwrx
I quickly ran out of the962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzmVmndwcy
lobby as the others made their way into the elevator with Lee. When I 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMbE1S4RKy
got to the parking lot, I made my way towards the SUV we had driven in 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XqzG6aOSZ
and luckily, I met the driver who was almost about to leave the car. I 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwogPYcK9R
told him about my phone and he unlocked the doors for me so that I could962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZ5T38NtVh
check for it inside.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eBABYEIUP
When I got to the 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0jfH3YKbS
passenger's seat, I saw the phone in between the seats I sat on with 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutjzQGzdDf
Zoey on our way here. I got in the car and sat in just to get it. When I962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WSRWTJCzZ
did, I checked to see if I had any missed calls or messages. There were962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eZMpobQi5
two missed calls and a message. I opened my inbox to read the message 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nzn0VKlcK
and it was one short sentence with only four words. I looked at the 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZhLbomhKl
message again not believing what I read. There was only one logical 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KFtSeFQjN
explanation to this and I was going to find out why.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTo6xXYiZvH
Just as I was about to get out, I jumped in fright when I saw who was standing right outside the car. Seunghoon.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41V082IIT0
"Seriously, I can sue 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5HmM8xZ2a
you for stalking me," I said as I held my chest. My heart was beating so962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UD6BsJk2U
fast. I never even heard him coming.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqTU52YRTZ
"Just came to check on you," he said with a smile.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6e2BgKuRss
"You're not my bodyguard962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXe1Ho1i5hm
that you've to follow me around," I said as I came out of the car and 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjqSczP6jK
banged the door shut. "How did you get here? I never heard you coming."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oXmmqOnEP
"Maybe I have kitty attributes like you." Seunghoon raised his eyebrows up and down and leaned towards me.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMRugnlwDC
I blushed. "You know about that?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2k1KZGsgwy
"Everyone knows you have962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIMiVk1Hsr
cat feet, Sam. No one ever hears you coming unless you want them to. 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlycHXdqByf
Zoey once mentioned that in an interview, I remember."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGPYpVEmXP
"Never mind. I just came to get my phone and you didn't have to follow me."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdom7Qq211
"Looks like I did the 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLgtdY1p3a
right thing because you look like you're about to punch something right 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuarh4fKMnl
now and I'll be the one to control your anger."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrE4XtBOtnn
"If I wanted to, can you be my punching bag?" I folded my arms.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04YmHF8NGV
"You wouldn't even if you wanted to." He smirked and I rolled my eyes.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGzQZJqBAi
"You're right. I don't want to be sued by YG for breaking your face."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4a5KBDZBy
"And because you're a 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwpA7wJeqR
lady and you don't have to punch anyone unless it's necessary. You might962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZH518nQwS
have punched that school mate of yours but that was years ago. So, 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqB9yPwdG9
what's up? It looked like you just received a bad message."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFhESQXRCM
"It isn't a bad message. Just something that needs a little sorting out. Come on, you'll see."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93gWBwgiyf
I quickly started my way back to the YG building and Seunghoon was up to pace with me with his long legs.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQzL9QKd8m
"Can you at least tell 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHksDzef1ef
me what's going on?" Seunghoon asked when we finally got in the elevator962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoG9iPoVoys
and he pressed the button leading to the floor to the conference room.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dUtTxWCap
"Nope, if I tell you it won't have that wonderful dramatic effect," I answered.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOsq73ePCB
"What dramatic effect?" 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8dylF36Xf
Seunghoon looked me in the eye with a curious look on his face as he 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14YRVNBo9x
came closer. I took a warning step back.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWO4jFYAtz0
"If you hadn't followed 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4ScjCfHYX
me to the parking lot, you would know what I mean and you would be 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXj2ZuIS3Z
trying to recover from the little surprise you'll find in the conference962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJsOuF2K4O
room."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fSUyPhFNr
"What surprise?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8IvZdDFCv
The elevator stopped and962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkIuRFpGqi
the doors flew open. Just as Seunghoon and I turned to look down the 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7duDga89Z
hall, there was Zoey coming out hurriedly through the door of one of the962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHEbUeXGKQ
rooms, into the hall and running towards the elevator upon seeing us. 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOdOlLpYbj
Seunghoon and I stepped out.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGKNlRJgzb
"Zoey, what's wrong?" Seunghoon asked when she reached us and she had a horrified look on her face.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0al0hpbfUc
"You will not believe what's going on," said Zoey.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWhMmwJtWc
"I already have a guess," I said.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJx4VdFYw3
"You know?" Zoey grew shocked as she looked at me.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk50lMMLMYX
"Yep. And we are going to sort this out right now."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOSahljx3y
I made my way towards the conference room. Seunghoon and Zoey follow.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmYgrh3at7
"What's going on? Can someone please tell me?" Seunghoon asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30GVKmn2Cp
"You're about to find out," said Zoey.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSsLQIX5rs
When we reached the 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKA47DGmUnR
conference room, I took hold of the door knob, turned it and opened the 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKgseMJkCb
door. The conference room was quiet and there was a weird aura that I 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSSp1a9vjl
felt immediately I stepped in. I didn't have to ask why.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7INgZLnocJ
In the conference room 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVOamxXtfN
was a huge round mahogany table. It's polished surface shining bright 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqWt5qy4h0
under the tiny light bulbs embedded in the roof. There were black office962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjd802KXFmD
chairs around the table. The other Toxins, BlackPink and WINNER were 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yKWdSnlSE
all seated at one half end of the rounded table. When they saw me enter 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdJsqIz1XC
the room, the look on their faces was so worrying that I grew horrified 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2wV6455IN
though I did my best not to show it.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSuaYWniFw
"Sam," said Mike and I stopped him short before he could say anything else with my hand raised.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZkB2azI67
I looked to the opposite962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvq4NDbhh1
half end of the table from where the others sat and I noticed that one 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBgY9BYaf0
of the chairs faced the other way. Someone was sitting there and had 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJ0xGgMvht
turned their backs to us facing the wall.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKmcs14fbv
"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."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5bGhOEbpa
G-Dragon quickly turned 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TDBHSDexn
around on the chair and he had that smile on his face that was somewhat 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QRX0Ydx3D
annoying and yet so cute that my heart almost melted.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJkDICxgJR
"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?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93yVoOfSEL
"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.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1FSvF3vH4
"Huh?" Seunghoon looked surprised at seeing G-Dragon and also confused at what I said. "What did it say?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVV6MF7ky2
"Just a simple, 'hi, are you coming?' was all," I said as I looked at Seunghoon.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2w42JGJOuM
"Wait," said Lisa who 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM07YoHOv0x
sat with the others at the other end, looking at me also with a confused962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QwusEXNoB
look on her face. "You knew just like that? Through his message?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMRpvkwuIH
"It felt simple and 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90rWvvEqIx
straightforward. For all we know, only BTW were supposed to be here to 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlJPnaNdXw
meet with our managers. And I for one didn't make any breakfast date 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dRgNPcggH
with G-Dragon today."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZo412xs7M
"Smart," said G-Dragon as he winked at me."Looks like you're really referring to your little group as BTW then."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvfWDC21T2
"I don't have a choice." I raised my eyebrow at him. "With you around, I just have to rub it in your face." 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5ToIIBe5q
"We will see about that. Because we're going to have a serious talk about BTW."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3Fkwj6ijy
"I had a feeling you would be on the managers' side the second we came here," said Mino.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcznEgoq7m
"Ya, I know I'm a 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYikuN0uzNA
threat," said G-Dragon as he grinned. "I did say all this was going to 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVDgSJwmU0
have consequences if you guys keep on meeting each other."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4yEFJbXWN
"If you mean us getting 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAOJSffh0y
into trouble with our managers, you're sadly mistaken," said Jessie. 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Xc8azVADb
"They weren't even mad at all because all they know is that we all met 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTkpr3NEaF
by coincidence."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbEFEmWOIW
"You're right." G-Dragon stood up from his seat. "They aren't mad, just yet."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rEC6ox3oQ
I didn't like his last sentence and something told me he had something up his sleeve.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgiJM2nSc9
"We wouldn't be having this meeting if it wasn't for you, am I right?" I asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5lBYFHSgZ
The rest of the BTW crew962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZHmkblrYP
grew confused and started muttering. And I could tell their eyes were 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSac1HCe3J
flying from G-Dragon to me, wondering who would say something next.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezbsMDu5ZH
"You know me so well," said G-Dragon as he stood up and came around the table to get to me.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEvyfXUHpX
"I just know how the human mindset works," I said. "I don't really know you at all."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjmpFcF7eq
"Hold up," said Zoey who962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdntDtIzgv4
stood beside me as she looked at G-Dragon. "So, you're saying, you 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXTWYq9aAw
called for this meeting to get us in trouble?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdhDDHPD3t
"That's a simple way of putting it," said G-Dragon as he smiled at Zoey.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEy0Tk1aWqV
"Told you we'll 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Mch9TxI58
experience a death trap," Zoey muttered loud enough for everyone to hear962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlW9Ud1Lk2
as she went to stand beside the others at the other end of the table.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVvHUcsR8F
"But is he going to do 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwpUelkE77
that?" Rosé asked. "He will need a lot of evidence to show that we all 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDjGSa7YaW
didn't really meet by coincidence."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYZSGUGT93
There was silence in the962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EGbmx35WV
room until Daniel and Mike murmured "oh no" at the same time. I knew 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66rsI1gO5O
that just like me, they had already figured out what G-Dragon was 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX16OVzCVJu
planning to do.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwi22fxyRV
"He doesn't need any evidence to trap us," said Mike.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0DbgrueqO
"What do you mean?" Jisoo who sat beside him asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KvZyyqncl
"The managers would believe him if talks about what happened the day before yesterday at the hotel," said Daniel.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBH7dC2SXim
"The time WINNER came to see us," said Christine as the realisation settled in.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuIDfoIc6y
"And they would take his word because he has Daesung and Seungri to back him up," I said.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLiE80Jkns
"And also because he's 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUSfE88DKC
our senior," said Zoey as she folded her arms. "That's how he even 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiUGcdBBY1
managed to set this meeting up in the first place."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNY6Ay7pU9F
"Well, you Toxins did your homework," said G-Dragon.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIxcCktZHv
"Why do I feel like I'm in court?" Seungyoon asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19pi1vmgZ9
"It's because we are and we have to take defence," I said.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCstfUsJ09Y
"Can't we just settle this matter somehow?" Jinwoo asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtkvpPhv8O
"Why do I feel I just entered an episode of Suits?" Mike asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡre4ove5pAP
I turned to look at Mike and I wasn't the only who did. Mike shrugged his shoulders.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0yEe7x05Q
"What? I watch Suits from time to time."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYr9Y0mCZ2
"What will it take so that you won't tell our managers?" Seunghoon asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eVnfz6VVy
G-Dragon smiled. He had 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOESLuF5gTm
us right where he wanted. I was so not liking this right now. When I 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuPsH599VQ
thought we would be dealing with our managers, we actually were meant to962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60SmJzufz4
deal with G-Dragon instead.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsBWncA44M
"I'm glad you brought that up because I was thinking of the same thing," said G-Dragon.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0DU6krgyw
"What do you want?" I asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOZGwImElf
G-Dragon looked at me as962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSRWaNspGA
he bit his lip. I looked straight at him in the eye wondering why he 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8RQOU8MHa
was doing all of this. I had a hunch, but I had to be sure of it before I962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VYeLyza7D
came to any conclusions.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2gPdYUuc3
"To make things clear 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzj1DGwnVK5
with all of you," said G-Dragon. "I might have brought up this idea of a962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aktKN9OTg
meeting in the first place concerning BTW, but the managers had been 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfZ8szByM8
thinking about doing the same thing."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MDb7M1yay
"That still doesn't change the fact that all this was your idea," said Seungyoon.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Uv4hZ7gnQ
"You're right. And just to give you a heads up, the managers aren't going to let BTW be a group."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAmiPrgGrY
"We already know that," said Zoey. "We all had a feeling that it would come to this."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdHDb4TU8G
"And we will not allow it," said Rosé.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBx1Ajkn8C
"Most of us are up for this idea and some of the fans too," said Mino.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzYcnDZYqk
"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."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiU8ZGr0WJ4
"You want us to agree or else you tell our managers everything," I said.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzTeWbyQka
"All's fair in love and 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjD1MoeTd1
war." G-Dragon gave a huge smile. "You guys are stubborn and they might 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhELfAA58Ad
just agree to your whims. So just accept what they bring up and we can 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXa9p0dgPB
go and pretend we never even had this meeting."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVpYMosyMY
"Come on," Christine 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9VWwqTEg4
complained. "As if BTW is even going to be an ongoing thing. The Toxins 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyv4GUVfwn1
won't be here for long and you know it."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDF3zOfuU7
"Christine's right," said Lisa. "I don't think it's wrong if we make BTW temporarily."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdnBNRVi8a
"BTW is nothing but a 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFmQSF4rRe
collaborative group on my part," I said. "It's almost in the same way 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfC6O1Ys0I7
artists collaborate. Like the way The Toxins and BigBang did."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegLm98Q7Ao
"I firmly agree with Sam," said Jisoo.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsr10DJQm2r
"We all do," said Seunghoon. "Just imagine what BTW can do."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6P4He6uoa
"Who knows, we might just have our own show!" Zoey said excitedly.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOeQtRn6Hx
"Which won't last long by the way," pointed out Mike.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVuvK1yo8o
"And it's going to attract a lot of media attention like it did yesterday," said Jinwoo.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKclEbTbIm
"We might just make BTW involved in market promotions too," said Mino.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQozlaeTp65
"That's being business minded and I like it," said Jennie.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHIMputEMg
"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.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3tO9ANlRv
"Well, you guys can dream all you want but it isn't going to happen," said G-Dragon.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8jKYeoCyr
Upon saying that, the 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjipk0qr7me
door to the conference room flew open. I turned to the door and coming 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTr2peveNt
in were the two managers and Lee. For a moment I grew silent with 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNjM641DK8
everyone else in the room due to their sudden presence. Those who were 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbj4jHrSV2W
seated stood up.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRnnmP4BDg
I gulped. I hope the 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfw6Tv8LKt
managers hadn't heard the entire conversation. Especially the part where962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWEYSfgrd1
G-Dragon was to get us in trouble by telling them the truth.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1TVZ5tsBR
The two managers had 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVhDuUBphD
their eyes on me at first and I felt they had finally figured what was 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemuTefgJL7
going on. I wanted to break into a sweat when they looked at me. But I 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjKc7GETDV
kept myself calm telling myself that I maybe over thinking and nothing 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPMXz2sLoR
is wrong.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsT9E3fOqD
"Good that you're all 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAWXgF9Wbc
here," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We have a few things to discuss. Zoey, 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYamY4vSzN
Seunghoon, Sam, Jiyong, take your seats, please. And everyone else too."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBh979e06Gr
I have always hated it 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0koqRa7iO
when managers have that serious tone in their voice that shook every 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iRBJ2G64y
cell in your body. I quickly took the chair in front of me and G-Dragon 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUjk07o86h
sat to my left and Seunghoon to my right. For some reason, I felt really962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcsTw0rh5m
uncomfortable sitting in between them. The others sat back down on 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDC7wT3L9hp
their seats.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjtBlfaMTM
The two managers and Lee962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJSStqILkr
stood at the other end of the table and we all had our eyes on them. I 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrRU1nfxze
started to silently tap my fingers on the polished wooden table as I bit962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIQVAxeCmv
my lower lip. I turned to look at the others and even though some were 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHXAOrF4rZ
trying to put up a straight face, I could tell they were as nervous as I962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSNWEXfSjR
was.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGV18u3M2Y
"Everyone in here looks really tense," said Collins. "As though you weren't the ones laughing about yesterday at Time Square."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMjte7FBav
"Well, we all know why we are," I said as I looked at Collins. "And we know it's something serious."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5ilIu5eoI
"You're right, it is serious," said Yang Hyun-suk.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjodTbEiRV7
Zoey sighed loudly in 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iqUxN6axg
frustration and everyone turned to look at her. "Please just say it 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEZLQTgdaU
already," she said. "'You created a huge mess yesterday, blah, blah, 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWG0Qih3xAg
blah you weren't supposed to meet, blah, blah, blah and so BTW was just a962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDKtGIrq7c
one day thing.' Some of us just want to go back to the hotel and watch 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfgaGj8nPc
some K-drama to forget the horrible aftermath of this meeting."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2QK6Ss8YY
The two managers 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUSuWBvij5
chuckled at Zoey's response and I couldn't figure out why they found it 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoWYNxMQtG
so amusing when most of us in this room were grieving in the inside. 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VbcJSvwUD
That was so not cool.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UCNsj9CgE
"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."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qjmuTzoFl
"Here we go," muttered Jessie as she leaned back on her chair and closed her eyes in despair.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUA8owWyVg
"But that doesn't mean we can't reconsider it," said Collins.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDq0rkp7Utx
My ears perked up when 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnPNsDT6R8
Collins said the word "reconsider." And I bet the others were all 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqugwI6MYFa
attentive too. Could it be that they might just turn things around?962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHx9Cos6Rpk
Seunghoon cleared his throat. "What do you mean?" he asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUKzyC0vAr
"We heard you outside 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxcNn7UsYm
the door discussing or rather debating about making BTW a real group 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACyAkI4OHX
thing even if it's just temporary," said Yang Hyun-suk.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ996ZlmgKCM
"And as stood by the door, we reconsidered giving BTW a shot," said Collins.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmnXa72j7t
"For real?" I couldn't believe my ears.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdXnZa1Wpg
"Yes, Sam. For real," 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26ZT09l96w
said Yang Hyun-suk. "But don't get your hopes up because we have to go 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWdXKkN52X
through further scrutiny about this decision."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWAqXbiGAO
I smiled. Even if they 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrM9ga6CZMD
were saying we shouldn't get our hopes up, it was quiet clear they were 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7H2LrQHQ5F
up for the idea themselves and that meant BTW was a go.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BNWu9IzG4
There was an exciting 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdlZLQlNHy
feeling in the air now that the whole BTW crew were all rejuvenated by 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLl09ZMHKHT
the exciting news. We were all smiling to ourselves and already I could 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7nHE4PhjZ
see that Zoey and Lisa who sat next to each other were ready to clap 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3Kf32COpK
their hands but they hid them under the table so that the managers 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3j8mxm4BkT
wouldn't notice as they clapped silently.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQvMtLMYyt
"Are you sure about this?" G-Dragon asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsYA1k3sgg
I turned to my other 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6anUywFXX
side and I realised that the whole time we had been talking to our 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuf1AauuZgK
managers, I had been so oblivious that GD was sitting next to me. Maybe 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJ6JaelJCl
it's because right now, he felt like a traitor and his presence right 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoJyTQRvbf
now, didn't matter.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeuLokxXEA
"You heard them when 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQPPyZa1Oh
they talked to you about it," said Yang Hyun-suk. "In such cases, it's 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6xIUnfEmv
good to be business minded and see how all this goes."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡte42AM8cds
"So, you all agree to this, right?" Mike asked with his eyebrow raised just to be sure.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlWHwUln82
"To be perfectly clear, yes, we agree," said Collins.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWw4ikemDvB
"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.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc77W2QLsWh
This time it was me, or I962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9yclc03Oi
can say, BTW, trapping G-Dragon. G-Dragon turned to look at me and he 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wE9XuEfnh
knew it. The managers' plan in the first place was not to make BTW an 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebauBWSHoz
official group and if we refused, they would G-Dragon would tell them 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwyMMUbpEz
our secret and there would be no BTW. And due to the condition G-Dragon 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcEEHhwX95
had laid out for us in the first place, there was simply no need for him962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoUn1PRTfX
to reveal our little secret anymore. All he told us to do was to agree 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYg3H4ar9my
to whatever the managers' decision was and we were doing just that. And 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpB6NOrFvt
there was no going back on his word. Look who's laughing now.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWi5IDF2UW
"Of course you should agree because whatever we decide is an order," said Yang Hyun-suk.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMocIcJBgr
"Yep, an order is an order," said Mino with a huge grin on his face.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zyNOnXH8Z
"I really thought they wouldn't make BTW official," said Jisoo. "Now that it is, I agree."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBCFKYpHqB
"We all agree," said Daniel.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLN7WgOFLn
"Hold your horses, people," said G-Dragon. "It hasn't been made official."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlZGd2I1FY
"But just because it 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6QIYMybOX
hasn't, doesn't mean that it will," said Seunghoon as he looked over at 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDYdM5RDI3
G-Dragon with a victory smile on his face. That made me smile even more.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkv0aAf92u
"Okay, so that's settled962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijzwHeTXQU
then," said Collins. "We will discuss for now and see what the seniors 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxENY7SfPNI
have to say. Once they agree, we will begin with the paper work and make962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTEbzKgEXT
BTW official."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFCWoAD4hJ
"Of course they will agree," said Rosé. "Who wouldn't?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVastsyc8yK
I noticed that most of 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71VBeO39FK
the eyes on the table especially from BTW flew to G-Dragon. Mine also 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiz0LEq09f
did the same. Luckily, the managers never noticed a thing. But Lee did 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8crRRoZhe
when she looked at me and I grinned.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ylvZmt5Kt
"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."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPZwGpeFgx
There was dead silence in the room when Yang Hyun-suk mentioned he had one condition. My heart started to race.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSuop6ckNV
"Before we make BTW 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvgMOMtJuW
official, may I advise that you three groups don't meet each other too 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4dxpZqAWT
often," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We don't want to raise a lot of people's 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ghnfC8pOd
hopes thinking that the group might be official so you better keep it 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzA1OYfFy2
low for a while. Is that good?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pQvSXPOwQ
"Fine by me," said Seungyoon. "As long as we can ask for your permission from time to time."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YDYIN5UnO
"That's fair enough," 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Dz4wxY5P9
said Collins. "But today, you won't go and hang out after this because 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8MS4laRIB
already there are too many of your fans lurking around hoping for BTW to962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrfovXboYz
be official and they can use anything just to let other people believe 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LPBdZUdHM
so."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctT312PRSC
"So you want to crush 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYM4fbrmQp
their hopes and later surprise them when you make the group official," I962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1J7y36LlK
said while I nodded my head. "I had to admit, that's a pretty good 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENrkBMZspc
strategy."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ57PQCmjYJ
"Then if all is well and962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJdibO6KxG
good, we will be leaving then," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We will keep you 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX61QVlIw9P
updated and not a word on social media."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4NiXbf9A2
I stood up from my seat 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxe1ZiGRwK
and everyone else did the same. As our managers made their way for the 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUafdI73u1z
door with Lee I couldn't help but smile and just as they were about to 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamJxLsksiG
walk out, I stopped them.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXW0Bg5IdUq
"Wait," I said and the two managers turned to look at me.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCjiIkKE4E
"What is it, Sam?" Collins asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4McbyqtnY
"Thank you," I beamed and I bowed. "Kamsahabnida (감사합니다)."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXXxFAVP3F
The rest of BTW also bowed and also said thank you. The two managers smiled at our lovely gesture.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1ZhSZ6dyX
"If it weren't for that I might just declare BTW official today," said Yang Hyun-suk.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VHLE6rISG
"You would?" Zoey, Jessie, Christine and Jisoo asked at the same time. I rolled my eyes and shook my head.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzE7VoFDXR
"No." Yang Hyun-suk 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgEQeePZD9
smiled even more and he walked out of the room with Collins. Lee waited a962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3rqEt4Jm0
few seconds by the door until the managers disappeared down the hall.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsCZj8TDiK
"Congratulations, BTW," she said quietly. She looked really happy. "You did it!"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdM2jUiJ1f3
"Another music collaboration for The Toxins," I said with a smile.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTH97YISWf
"And triple more of the fun," said Mike.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MM6UIDKWJ
"Now that I totally agree," said Daniel as he gave his brother a high five.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgegn40olZa
"This is like the best 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFfasuRwHU
news ever," said Zoey. "Thank you so much, Sam for making me feel like 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmteRSSJE9I
all hope was lost when actually things turned out alright."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnEy3DqL35
"I don't think you should be thanking Sam for that," said Jinwoo.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpklYI6jbXv
"Jinwoo's right," I said. "We wouldn't have been able to get our managers to reconsider if it wasn't for G-Dragon."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDUTU4zzLW
The room grew silent as all eyes were on Jiyong. I looked at him through the corner of my eye and smiled.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZE6MhFb6O
"I've to admit you played me very well," said G-Dragon with a look of defeat on his face. "Congrats."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIMJSw2ksx
"All this wouldn't have happened if you hadn't tried to trap us in the first place," said Seunghoon.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCC41qzT8e
"I knew there was a 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgwBOA6cBl
reason for G-Dragon to have called for this meeting in the first place,"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJKLNYzr5k
said Lee. She shook her head in disappointment as she looked at 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3G7Y3Nzb4
G-Dragon.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmUxyB3hn6
"You knew?" Christine asked.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR80D451tp7
"I got to find out when I went to see the managers."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI670o02kh0
"But everything turned in our favour in the end," said Lisa. "So, I'm not even that mad at him at all."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AzI8Wfe4Q
"You just got lucky because the managers happen to be eavesdropping on our conversation at the wrong time," said G-Dragon.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxvNk8lr0O
"At the right time on our part," said Mino.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9idaXda8Hg
"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.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKnGS0bUEX
"Thank you, G-Dragon!" BlackPink said all together. "We love you!"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8grdrJryfm
"Well, you guys can tell962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpmphcXBs0
me how this all went down from the beginning, but right now, you all 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYIZ3KPSsJ
have to go," said Lee. "And I'm supposed to see to it that you all 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03lhIQ6xNu
aren't going to go into the same car."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5BwR2dNXq
"Don't worry, we won't disobey our managers after all this," I said. "Can I have a talk with G-Dragon alone, please?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZhwS0nTgM
Everyone else started to962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFEcGhyuvh
slowly step out of the room and I made sure to say bye to BlackPink and962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bWF6Dqacq
WINNER. When everyone had left, Lee closed the door behind her. It was 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYx8TlsyjXO
only G-Dragon and I.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxxg3XmkRG
"I'm mad at you," I started.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIPFOJKlLF
"I know," he replied. "Sam....."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc78q7WJ65i
"Save it." I held my 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXRqjw9zFQ
hand up to silence him. "You know, you reminded me of all those times 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQHcESAMHP
you and I used to get into a fight and it seems you're bringing it all 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7e2OVLiG0M
back. I thought we were past that but now it's like you want to bring up962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfRt1hDqZV
a war again."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sgHK4RDmM
"I'm not trying to bring up a war."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2T7m7nBq2
"You put us in a horrible position and we had to fight against you. That my friend, is called a war."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguvkTC7V9F
"Look, Sam, you've already won and I admit that trying to rattle you out to our managers was wrong of me."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTT7IALyCM
I folded my arms. "Great! You realise it now when everything backfired on you and you didn't get what you want."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoUM9w8LJk
G-Dragon looked at me 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroc6ltr7md
and me at him. Right now, I was fuming and I felt like I was going to 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MtS3tYQUU
burst. I never knew he would turn on us like this and it hurt me like a 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazAH2sZVZT
stab in the heart.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8W1ycExLv
"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."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwr2wx77Pn
"You know, the others 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65AnslcWZN
might forgive you because of the outcome but I am so mad that you could 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMTraVeohe
ever do this just because you don't like it when we went out to hang out962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaeFhESH4o
with WINNER yesterday."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwxafldo93
"If you're trying to say that I'm jealous, then yes, I am."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDy6BzXhnbd
I nodded my head. What I962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLGwqpXxiA
thought from the beginning the time I came to the conference room was 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQaCBcThv7
true. He was jealous. Not just of The Toxins hanging out with WINNER but962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7I0bQmFXYZ
of Seunghoon and I.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7jE4K3EKA
"You know you and I can 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6g7JSMeSDE
only be friends and that relationship can't go any further than that. 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSqFajJxAg
It's the same thing with Seunghoon. And until you get over it, I suggest962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbB5wrsaqAt
you find a way for me to forgive you or this friendship might just go 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYH4l57CGM
down the rocks."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3YsZONtKc
I headed for the door 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV48Sa8j4Im
without a second thought and I didn't even get to look at him one. As 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufWymOiyAh
soon as I found myself in the hall heading for the elevator, there stood962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Nnb8REcf6
Zoey, waiting.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRg73RP3AFa
"I'm guessing you put him in his place," said Zoey as I approached her.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34U6JX7JfN
"I sure hope so," I said962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKhKyiyt38
with a sigh. I felt like I had just arm wrestled with a body builder 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefXQOOpSyw
and emerged victorious, but at the same time came out exhausted.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UvB6Zl6ne
"When you're this mad, trust me, you do know how to put people in their place."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkl0rFrLJUn
Zoey turned around and pressed the button to summon the elevator. When the elevator came, we stepped in and the doors closed.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZVSWusmyi
"I guess you figured out what G-Dragon and I talked about last night," said Zoey as she looked at me.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxSVO7XWLq
"It wasn't that hard to figure it out," I said.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0YTXWxl7N
"Just like it wasn't hard for you to know that G-Dragon would be here. Sometimes your mind works like a supercomputer."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmYTSItT3E
"You know computers are 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAt3JDxHk1
just dumb machines, right?" I looked at Zoey. "They only do what they do962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TdSsTcXOF
because they have commands installed in them to work as they are 962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnMPoQhM6v
supposed to."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05Q9KAtVvs
"You're right. You're like a detective who plays by her own rules and always connects the dots."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiSuFu4f4t
I smiled. "You always call me that."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdQRxQvqaV
"Ya, because you're smart too."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVqWGA5pnk
The elevator reached the ground floor and we came out of the elevator finding ourselves in the lobby.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmgn2306jt
"You know we should celebrate our victory," said Zoey.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucvm7wNzV5
"How?" I asked. "The group hasn't been made official and we can't celebrate when the three groups aren't together."962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ259eGNe6AZ
"We can figure something out," said Zoey. "We won't have to be all together in one place, you know?"962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZo2FQNbHP
"I think I've an idea," I said as we walked out into the parking lot heading to the car.962Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFqW34mAwu
"I knew you would," said Zoey as she wrapped her arm around my shoulders.
