Hanging out at Times 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WluBqDbu3
Square was super duper fun yesterday. The positive reactions we got from543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJV0VrYrisz
the fans sent us trending all over Twitter within hours and soon, 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQqKQtphDT
everyone got to know that BTW meant BlackPink, The Toxins and WINNER.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrUb50WpLd
But that didn't matter. 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmx6qlLo5x4
The three groups together with Lee and TOP had a ton of fun stuff to do 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8V9GLP2eq
at Times Square soon after we had lunch. We first went to watch a movie 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSi5W210mN
on the largest screen in the world, which was amazing. Then we went and 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2Pi8aqXlL
had fun at the "I Like Dalgi Children's Theme Park", meant for little 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDL1U6cYicg
kids. But hey, who says grown ups can't have a little fun too? Don't 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVet0VfCiki
worry, we weren't actually playing on the swings or anything. We 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81SkVdg5Cp
actually played around with the adorable kids.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AAy3j7yaT
There were plenty of 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDm8NlToHw
open outdoor spaces like the ecology park, a fountain and a rooftop 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GY6fqXmnl
garden that we visited. We even took group pictures and selfies with the543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKcPukZU0V
beautiful nature around us. And we managed to get pictures with a few 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMT5vh2MIHu
fans too.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3LvqHCCwI
The time we were done 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqc6pH1KKw6
having fun at Times Square was in the evening and it was completely 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAZbDmfona
unbelievable when we stepped out into the parking lot and found three 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEOMoNOUYo
black SUV cars, for each of the three groups waiting to pick us up. What543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgkCkB55rv
made the scene even more dramatic yet terrifying, was that our two 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVDvTtlA3F
managers were there, waiting for us. They had received the message 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoqRKDZSLG
through social media alright and they didn't look too happy that we had 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5s3Y0MPVP
all met and decided to hang out. It was surprising to them that we had 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6M0YBk6e8l
all met "by coincidence." The rest of us never said a word about how 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJerOYXt9Aj
everything came to be. Especially with WINNER visiting The Toxins the 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuNR1UjDwW
previous day, of course.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhA34MQkJCr
As much as the managers 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPY111B8O8a
kept their cool and didn't say a word afterwards meant they weren't 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObUDGYU5KF
really mad at all and we managed to drive away from Times Square without543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2ZDCw763R
any complaints. I knew my plan would work but I also knew we were in 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTAUQOg9L3
for a serious talk from our two managers after they take this all in.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QvWjrVxJL
Right now, this very 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGuuPGhT7x
morning, I was bending over, tying my shoelaces and wondering what they 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4TkuNfsZS
could possibly want to talk to the three groups about as we meet with 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKQAbrEzfi
them. Collins told us a few minutes ago during breakfast that he and 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJipkiWLlkP
Yang Hyun-suk want the three groups to go to YG and talk. I hope it 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yKgsRj4oJ
isn't that serious because yesterday, they didn't seem so mad at all. 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXXoIGnDZI
But why was I so worried? I couldn't figure out what was bothering me 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7fUdtKjm4
and I just couldn't take it.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HL7CEWlK0
I stood up straight after tying my shoelaces and I noticed Zoey approach me as she came out of the bathroom.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3W9XSm4am
"Do you think they are mad?" Zoey asked as she stood a few feet away from me.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhRMLJRHml
"You're worried, aren't you?" I asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqCfr0K8SM
"Aren't you?" Zoey folded her arms.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYosDbnJQfM
I sighed. If Zoey could be as worried as I was, the rest of The Toxins were too.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgUuXXIJA6
"I am," I said. "It's pretty troublesome that they would want us all to meet at YG."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83k05zsrxU
"I thought you said your plan would work."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnQIpIvmNk
"In some way, it did, because they would have been so furious at us, but they weren't."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJuYvEU59f
"Do you think they would want to talk about this BTW thing?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXDq7rUBWz
I felt like slapping my 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzfGCMrzak
forehead because I realised I was such a complete idiot. Of course. BTW.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXqlFcW9Dc
Now that Zoey mentioned it, it all made sense. The managers would 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyy93W64Wss
probably want to talk about BTW because as far as the three groups 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡai6mGfyQkK
meeting "by coincidence" was concerned, they had completely brushed it 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7v14F2Xtp
off.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZ93dm7LuM
"Ya, you're right," I said. "They obviously want to talk about that."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8xFa2Rhk2
"Do you think they would want to make it a real thing?" Zoey was getting anxious.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5l1dSKClL1
"I would hold that thought for a while if I were you and see what the managers have to say."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHp4ARl79vk
Zoey raised an eyebrow at me. "You're worried that they wouldn't agree, aren't you?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoHJveuhRH
I shrugged. She read my 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgISSiH0aPy
mind really well. "I can't lie. I thought about it yesterday and now 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzAI5JzYjV
that you bought up the BTW thing, I realise it's what's been bothering 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGylsxKgm6
me the whole time."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbAQxHR21a
I sat down on my bed as 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCUsXdpkJ4
my mind kept spinning around the issue. I shouldn't have told Zoey how I543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oK6TNKNBK
felt about all this but I had to let it out somehow.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYcDZ0fFLJ
"You know, you should have given us a heads up about it, Sam," said Zoey as she also sat on her bed facing me.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EmH5VMwBH
"Gosh, you really should543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqanqy5VcIj
have seen the looks on all of your faces when we were having fun 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSMyv1tLl9
yesterday. I just couldn't burst your bubble and tell you whats likely 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2M8ggkmBu
to happen to BTW. We all weren't going to enjoy ourselves when it really543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMaqeTtlnL
mattered so I kept quiet. I for one even forgot about it too."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHwof7VVJd
"Ya, you're right not to have brought it up or I would've killed you."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWA89DSkNRy
"Like you almost did to Mike?" I smirked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgV6CtwT8o
"Mike is annoying 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFD2WFvt4U
sometimes," said Zoey as she expressed her irritation with her hands as 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDMRqs81Of
though they were bear claws. "You could scratch his eyes out."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkHCXpCMYK
"You've been planning to do that ever since we became best friends and he knew the essence of being annoying around you."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2n39bouxHm
"You're right. I should burn him instead."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUD5YT0w9Z
I laughed. "The drama between you two never gets old."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LbnTIJwwJ
"And what about the drama between you and Seunghoon?" Zoey's eyebrows were raised and she had a crooked smile on her face.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZWMy7GSEa
"Don't even go there," I warned as I pointed a finger at her.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCQbpxWrkw
"Sorry, but just so you 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzQLNBR2AR
know, all the guys on social media were kind of jealous when he posted 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoer0Yyen4P
that pic of you and him together."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlzgh21OSh
"Pff! That's not true." I rolled my eyes.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1mGeuDOBG
"Well, you can ask Seungri and TOP who made a comment on Instagram last night."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgifej4nEuB
I blushed and at the 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTJjnJmHZR
same time felt so confused. Zoey had a silly smile on her face and I 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cjNq6VhH5
couldn't tell whether she did that to intimidate me or there was some 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0E0eCdfeW
other hidden agenda.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0DGQgxYg6
"You weren't on Instagram last night, were you?" she asked this time with a surprised look on her face.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wYcta617d
"I was," I said as I stared at the ceiling to avoid her eyes."But only for a little while."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5HYAgNvdP
"Or you weren't really there at all. If you did, you wouldn't have that look on your face."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1EdEWE4KP
I sighed in surrender. 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6P9lUaR860
"Fine. You caught me. I logged out of Instagram because I wanted to. 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZnzdqueKc
Besides, I knew all the notifications I was bound to receive were going 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJkfynfus0
to be endless, so I did what I had to do."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJDAQNbuH5
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."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgftoX60syB
"You know me already, Zoey. I like social media when it's necessary."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2J1PSGY8z
"And hate it when you hit the headlines. Ya, I know you very well."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9bQXchdZw
"Okay, enough. What happened on Instagram last night?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6M6cIWpLLN
Zoey had an excited look543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPBe6smGQR
on her face that for a moment, I was surprised that she was ever even 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0NqBbZNm8
worried about us meeting with the managers at YG. Something hot was 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaWn1hI9dz
cooking about Seunghoon and I being called a couple. And it could 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTetw8pVpQU
clearly show all over her face.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnzH4hu4vd
"There was a debate last night whether you made a compatible girlfriend for Seungyoon," said Zoey as she excitedly bit her lip.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsOEWNDyL3
I shook my head. "And?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGFCl6gVie
Zoey folded her arms, 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JBlrNbotj
still smiling. "Some people thought you and Seunghoon made a lovely 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt06JS96lg0
couple, but others, mostly guys, didn't."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWsMSsqoJH
"Hold that thought. This543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyELMws0rM
wouldn't have come up unless someone said something about the two of us543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnTziwP7Vf
after Seunghoon posted that picture."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh87TsTUP00
"Don't look at me." Zoey looked the other way. "I didn't say anything."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8gfRhnGAm
I snapped my fingers. "Seunghoon."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTT5rjXL99w
"Bingo!" Zoey clapped her hands.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1xyLSsTC5
"Gosh, what's wrong with him?" I rubbed my forehead feeling like I might just develop a headache.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9KKc3WIWx
"He's a fan. Is that so wrong?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Qii8LN6oG
"Well, he hid in our closet."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuECGyffoi
"That was just the closet. Even I would do that for my bias."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVRWf7c4h0
"Wow!" I leaned back in surprise. "Did you just say bias?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CYSnolUgd
"Ya, why?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46CKVn8qAo
"Looks like we just 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAanTesqjU
developed the k-pop culture where we refer to our favourite celebrity, 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbT7k5nYbG
whom we consider perfect as our bias."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jtJYwwF0d
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."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrxMjWew0b
"But anyway, Seunghoon hiding in my closet wasn't the only thing that he has done."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKJV8fmGcG
"What do you mean? You 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKu910nH53
got to meet Seunghoon for the first time when he jumped out of our 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CcP0lbJFr
closet. What else could he possibly have done before that?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNY5UXd6U3m
"We had a few encounters before though I never knew it was him."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2yfLC4cxD
Zoey's eyes bulged out in surprise. "He was stalking you?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4FtmYdiAU
"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."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMaetpvtqr6
"When did that happen and when were you ever going to tell me?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3Dngf6s2g
"I wanted to but I kept 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSK6VDfxZZf
it to myself. And when other issues started to arise, especially with 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3puiaM1w7
Jehan, I even forgot that I even had a stalker."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQYC33kZK1
"Jehan. Don't remind me," said Zoey as she rolled her eyes.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dBPB12iWg
"Ya, I shouldn't. But now you know. And for the record, don't tell anybody."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4RmKjDgrr
"My lips on this one are sealed. I won't tell anyone, not even G-Dragon."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqd8A3F9K45
I looked at Zoey with a questioning look. "Why would you mention him in all of this?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVqIurzSiw
Zoey quickly got up from the bed. "Pretend I never said that."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4W1ff7m1hW
I quickly stood up and 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjoQwmrQZe
Zoey made a beeline for the door. I followed her and just before she 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGscjCb20I
could hold the door knob, I reached her, held her by the hair and pulled543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFvizLpoZQ
her back.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4km06UthXS
"Ow, ow, ow!" Zoey yelled as she held the back of her head from where I pulled at her hair.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXABGz10co
"Zoey, you're going to 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZE2J0a5qJj
tell me right now what you mean," I said, pulling her hair even more. 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCvTKQfYLD
"Or else, I'll pull your hair out and you will not think of dying your 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QLAPf8iAz
own hair pink in the next ten years."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXYermTCAa
"Ouch! Sam! You're hurting me!" Zoey complained. "I was just joking around."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlW4rWFuGZ
"You're lying."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwl1m4GdEd4
"I'm telling the truth!"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wBhIeNktJ
"Come on, Zoey. You personally had a talk with G-Dragon, didn't you?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxOUTpSdSY
I felt Zoey pause as she stopped struggling to get away. "How did you know?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Jkyuz4VfC
"I know because I know. So, what did you two talk about?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn12UIpbLrW
"I can't tell you that."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzh4d5uj7f
"Why?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWcHziwjdR
"Because it's 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhIlwLPrVB
confidential. Owwwuch!" I made sure I tightened my fist even more under 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGb38DWgCQ
her hair pulling at her roots. "That really hurts!"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rutq4t853
The door in front of us suddenly flew open. Lee came in the room and paused upon seeing the scene in front of her.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvrqBFDahb
"Is it me or is Sam trying to braid your hair?" Lee asked Zoey with an unbelievable look on her face.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLR5YYV2L0F
"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."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FHHKlec5r
"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.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ65NspvoKi
"You can tell me about your drama later," said Lee. "The car's here and we have to go."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6SMBxVIL7
Zoey whined as though she was about to cry. "Do we really have to go now?" she asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrY3gsPRIvW
"I know it feels like you're going for a trial, but you don't have a choice."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7lCSAiWgE
"Lee's right," I said. "We do have to hear our managers out. Though we all know it won't be pretty."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaa1D29AFy
"Fine," said Zoey. "Before we get there, I better prepare for the worst."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGzfm0uzi6
"Think positive," said Lee. "You can never know what might happen."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1j78MQBKR1
"No, Sam's already spoiled my mood with her own premonitions."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtUXVOp4P2
"And she did the right thing," said Lee with a smile.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtt4vo5Wph
I playfully rolled my 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLW2B3NSyEI
eyes and didn't say a word as I walked out of the room with Zoey and Lee543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LJ0E0Zdpc
following suit. I found the other Toxins waiting by the elevator. They 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhLRzxotuF
also looked worried.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDB8Pg7hH8M
"You all look like you're going to a funeral," said Zoey.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Xk5oGrv6Y
"And you were sounding like your hair's caught fire a minute ago," said Mike, folding his arms and looking at Zoey.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIl53ciEQI
"I fell on the floor." Zoey looked at Mike with wide eyes.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMaWE3tKrqJ
"Never mind. Just like you guys, we are also worried," I said.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzPRVBeXWc
"Where is Collins?" Daniel asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAdmQIgHpT
"He left soon after breakfast," Lee answered.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9qyZlsxv3
The five of us turned to look at Lee. "What?" we said at the same time.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWr8PJBSYp
"He left early," said Lee, shrugging her shoulders543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAjRMnozeo
"Why? Is he really that mad at us that he wants to go ahead to prepare a death trap?" Zoey asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQxbsOYlwA
"Death trap? Seriously, Zoey?" Christine asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlUVqGeZNK
Zoey shrugged. "Couldn't think of any other way to say it."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwXVxZpvaa
"Okay, first of all," 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fTi9KMFNS
said Lee grabbing our attention. "There is no death trap. Secondly, 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKDIq7qrFo
after we came back from Times Square, I personally talked to Collins and543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSGJLYXcOB
he wasn't mad at you."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3PQnzc4ql
"Then do you know why he wants BlackPink, WINNER and us to meet?" Mike asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzfaxpp1Rx
"That, he couldn't say."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSxaHdd6oN
"I thought you were his assistant," said Daniel.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMgjN57tGa
"You know, Collins doesn't tell me everything. He treats me like I'm part of you guys too."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmAreezu2H
"Welcome to the monkey side," said Zoey as she rolled her eyes and scratched her head.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwseQsPba8K
"Ya, I now know how that feels. But right now we better go."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJ9xp08feQ
Christine pressed the 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡje3YSAm62f
button to the elevator and when we all got in, we headed downstairs and 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQh2MrhcvQt
went in the black SUV waiting for us. There were a few fans who stood 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkQgH1k2jf
outside the hotel premises and for a moment, it felt a little awkward 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMDixWeZSt
that they were here in the nearly hours of the morning. I know it's 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeM0bfyI7rj
normal for every fan to do so but today I couldn't help but feel that 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGs0loCLutV
something was a bit odd about it. Then I remembered BTW.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYu6FSNMH5B
We got to YG right on 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LnWYA9k3s
time and immediately we stepped into the lobby, we found all four 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GZcDWB2qA
members of WINNER heading for the elevator. Looked like they had also 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ji7NLcP2u
arrived a few seconds earlier.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaSEVU8IKS
"Hey, guys!" Zoey greeted loudly so that she could grab their attention.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8YUeMLSQW
"Zoey!" Mino turned around and had a huge smile on his face. "Hey, guys."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NOgxiEoFM
"Hi," the four of us responded and not in a way people would like to hear.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiepKCdwWbz
"You all look down," said Seungyoon. "What's wrong?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxLgCCEBTB
"It's nothing really," I said. "We just don't like how this meeting is going to turn out."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YU0vFlgez
The four members of WINNER all muttered at the same time.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLygaCOuL4
"Guess we're not the only ones feeling that way," said Jinwoo.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVf1uTmXG4
"Are BlackPink already here?" Mike asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxruIEPHTAo
"The receptionist says they are waiting in the conference room," said Seunghoon.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOugyUGhqf
"Okay," said Daniel as he rubbed his hands together. "Let's go meet our fate."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGC5le8EtY
"If this comes out as a death trap, I'm going to say I told you so," said Zoey.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOL0ep6v64
"There will be no such 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljpGqxCoVQ
thing," said Christine. "You're just exaggerating what might come up 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdPZJKEC17
that we won't like at all so you refer to it as a death trap."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52g6UyYc3u
"And you're making it 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF12BihAk7T
sound ten times worse than it already is, Zoey," said Seungyoon, as he 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoq2vUHqU7
pouted his lip and scratched his head.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlMOFRukD9
"Wonder where that came from," said Mino.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfBqmi4kF9
"Trust me, you don't 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1HJVMrqIL
want to know," said Lee as she pulled out her phone from her purse. "You543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnWvrpCG4W
guys go ahead and I'll give your managers a call that you're here."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzMGs2k6XX
"You aren't coming with us?" I asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVfJbbUYeR
"I might have joined the 'monkey's club' but I'm not going to be there when they drop a bombshell."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiULYu2dHsF
"See, death trap!" Zoey emphasised.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMRISs4vTA
"Zoey!" everyone muttered loudly that Zoey quickly covered her mouth and looked away.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoo4YjgeGcb
"Look, whether they are 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQJ2WEVclv
going to say what we might not like, a death trap as Zoey likes to put 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9INpw17imV
it. Or not, you'll be fine," said Lee. "We all have gone through this 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarUUv211DE
where you never like the decisions the managers have to make."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡog0bqyV1Qw
"Please, don't remind us," said Mike as he rubbed his forehead.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDk0eX5K4c
"Either way," Lee continued, "you better go. You don't want to be late."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHj9BfHvIVW
"Won't you wish us luck?" I asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymDhGKVOeP
"You don't need it when you already know what's going to happen."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi80yNRBuwy
I gave Lee a sad smile 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOfGvoi8RE
and turned towards the elevator. I started to feel the way I always felt543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eiWzz7Z04
whenever you had to hear a decision that might just cost something in 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNEvcZHrrI
your life. Like suicide.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTrX5TSiUn
We started our way 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4kAEPutlI
towards the elevator when all of the sudden, I stopped when I realised 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgikUIzw4z
that I didn't have my phone with me. I checked the pockets of my jumper 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJs1KgsJfH
and my jean trousers. Nothing.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0W4mGT5DZ
"Gosh, I think I left my phone in the car," I said. "You guys go ahead, I'll catch up."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlCtMpoFcS
I quickly ran out of the543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGI4Ng4i0wr
lobby as the others made their way into the elevator with Lee. When I 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3ovoeyfcZ
got to the parking lot, I made my way towards the SUV we had driven in 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Oyy9bf1yQ
and luckily, I met the driver who was almost about to leave the car. I 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9kMXvwYkQ
told him about my phone and he unlocked the doors for me so that I could543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaBNdmNhuD
check for it inside.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjnkKhLeTs
When I got to the 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuGOBACwA4
passenger's seat, I saw the phone in between the seats I sat on with 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWMnHPjnOb
Zoey on our way here. I got in the car and sat in just to get it. When I543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEyRsvkEGW
did, I checked to see if I had any missed calls or messages. There were543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIs7zErQln
two missed calls and a message. I opened my inbox to read the message 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoVK3VkS7b
and it was one short sentence with only four words. I looked at the 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTG0ROqIF9n
message again not believing what I read. There was only one logical 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnqv38cCh8
explanation to this and I was going to find out why.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wECiBQGGN
Just as I was about to get out, I jumped in fright when I saw who was standing right outside the car. Seunghoon.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqV4D4c6h2
"Seriously, I can sue 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhoRBOgyuf
you for stalking me," I said as I held my chest. My heart was beating so543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurHmxn1u6K
fast. I never even heard him coming.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjCJX5M2Jz
"Just came to check on you," he said with a smile.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AhtVkFYxm
"You're not my bodyguard543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8Z7fHZXMi
that you've to follow me around," I said as I came out of the car and 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCblfRHMt3
banged the door shut. "How did you get here? I never heard you coming."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5saNqyUzl4
"Maybe I have kitty attributes like you." Seunghoon raised his eyebrows up and down and leaned towards me.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9qy8Cab1C
I blushed. "You know about that?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOoBbPgPgt
"Everyone knows you have543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfGwicuZUh
cat feet, Sam. No one ever hears you coming unless you want them to. 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGRGEqL2ZG
Zoey once mentioned that in an interview, I remember."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ334GwznURb
"Never mind. I just came to get my phone and you didn't have to follow me."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ugt6iQfNR
"Looks like I did the 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsVaQaR18i
right thing because you look like you're about to punch something right 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIYZmFGdJS
now and I'll be the one to control your anger."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7IgSoXIYE
"If I wanted to, can you be my punching bag?" I folded my arms.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIB7RI2wvu
"You wouldn't even if you wanted to." He smirked and I rolled my eyes.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDQXCRTNiJ
"You're right. I don't want to be sued by YG for breaking your face."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjqyIwKrIM
"And because you're a 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzab62heeh
lady and you don't have to punch anyone unless it's necessary. You might543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzDpdpdW0D
have punched that school mate of yours but that was years ago. So, 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9wMjSR7vf
what's up? It looked like you just received a bad message."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFiXuXn2H25
"It isn't a bad message. Just something that needs a little sorting out. Come on, you'll see."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1nyhI330R
I quickly started my way back to the YG building and Seunghoon was up to pace with me with his long legs.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomnPXpy1xU
"Can you at least tell 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKvcvtAq5O
me what's going on?" Seunghoon asked when we finally got in the elevator543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡih01i9NTvz
and he pressed the button leading to the floor to the conference room.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAxZTwk7gS
"Nope, if I tell you it won't have that wonderful dramatic effect," I answered.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrypukFDC1D
"What dramatic effect?" 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmB9NBjh3Z
Seunghoon looked me in the eye with a curious look on his face as he 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQslgCFImRJ
came closer. I took a warning step back.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMmxbOvUVH
"If you hadn't followed 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iXzCJy8Vx
me to the parking lot, you would know what I mean and you would be 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0ZWxwO3Z5
trying to recover from the little surprise you'll find in the conference543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDr1Ji6NcxJ
room."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyyW9SAnPC
"What surprise?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3wZR5Kida
The elevator stopped and543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf93WSiVJgU
the doors flew open. Just as Seunghoon and I turned to look down the 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9htGL7EuhY
hall, there was Zoey coming out hurriedly through the door of one of the543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMbXg04v2B
rooms, into the hall and running towards the elevator upon seeing us. 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfM7spPfLGB
Seunghoon and I stepped out.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzf0Tb7jdi
"Zoey, what's wrong?" Seunghoon asked when she reached us and she had a horrified look on her face.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoz6FEaJGt5
"You will not believe what's going on," said Zoey.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvForvBQCD
"I already have a guess," I said.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyJn65zD4T
"You know?" Zoey grew shocked as she looked at me.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwEb0vI55E
"Yep. And we are going to sort this out right now."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nQ74XkDT9
I made my way towards the conference room. Seunghoon and Zoey follow.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCWvGuC5aE
"What's going on? Can someone please tell me?" Seunghoon asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjH3EBB1kHU
"You're about to find out," said Zoey.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc50AYLgyFw
When we reached the 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTrzBrpRjJ
conference room, I took hold of the door knob, turned it and opened the 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMsV8HQCBD
door. The conference room was quiet and there was a weird aura that I 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RbiW7YhtD
felt immediately I stepped in. I didn't have to ask why.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ904FCE6nCe
In the conference room 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfIbXouj1S
was a huge round mahogany table. It's polished surface shining bright 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8aB04lref
under the tiny light bulbs embedded in the roof. There were black office543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIUMLKmBst
chairs around the table. The other Toxins, BlackPink and WINNER were 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPEf9Fgov2
all seated at one half end of the rounded table. When they saw me enter 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFzKvojudZ
the room, the look on their faces was so worrying that I grew horrified 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfd6a0DjOD
though I did my best not to show it.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFa8ZdVrIz
"Sam," said Mike and I stopped him short before he could say anything else with my hand raised.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKcXGDsgrV
I looked to the opposite543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWAjKkcP5F
half end of the table from where the others sat and I noticed that one 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtl3wR4Oa0
of the chairs faced the other way. Someone was sitting there and had 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzO8DFfLIey
turned their backs to us facing the wall.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5eWysb4yv
"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."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7c8OBXA0a
G-Dragon quickly turned 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFrVhmQdxk
around on the chair and he had that smile on his face that was somewhat 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpe1EQf3d5K
annoying and yet so cute that my heart almost melted.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡex671Vejf5
"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?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnwZEEm3Y9
"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.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKPPFMXAdu
"Huh?" Seunghoon looked surprised at seeing G-Dragon and also confused at what I said. "What did it say?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOLY3Th3hU
"Just a simple, 'hi, are you coming?' was all," I said as I looked at Seunghoon.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVuNzZL377
"Wait," said Lisa who 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMe3Zh2n2G4
sat with the others at the other end, looking at me also with a confused543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4NS0OZvLc
look on her face. "You knew just like that? Through his message?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KdrPaPg4X
"It felt simple and 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLNRoZhN2K
straightforward. For all we know, only BTW were supposed to be here to 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKJlmrxkMW
meet with our managers. And I for one didn't make any breakfast date 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YQeEXH41W
with G-Dragon today."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzCj9KaeqE
"Smart," said G-Dragon as he winked at me."Looks like you're really referring to your little group as BTW then."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4o754go0Rh
"I don't have a choice." I raised my eyebrow at him. "With you around, I just have to rub it in your face." 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkjhBmbrw3
"We will see about that. Because we're going to have a serious talk about BTW."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXUweK9mBh
"I had a feeling you would be on the managers' side the second we came here," said Mino.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMa5KovIvG
"Ya, I know I'm a 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8pW9biAdw
threat," said G-Dragon as he grinned. "I did say all this was going to 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceO96KaZmi
have consequences if you guys keep on meeting each other."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKgRshYmn9
"If you mean us getting 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPtMCzkFQY
into trouble with our managers, you're sadly mistaken," said Jessie. 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUvM2fiGJP
"They weren't even mad at all because all they know is that we all met 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSpCU3uUvF
by coincidence."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtQExOJrEd
"You're right." G-Dragon stood up from his seat. "They aren't mad, just yet."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vkcPwVfPv
I didn't like his last sentence and something told me he had something up his sleeve.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2Str6Ancm
"We wouldn't be having this meeting if it wasn't for you, am I right?" I asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3ChQ5y5bD
The rest of the BTW crew543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4shbFOPWeT
grew confused and started muttering. And I could tell their eyes were 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cEsG7GPDi
flying from G-Dragon to me, wondering who would say something next.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAudCoCNNM
"You know me so well," said G-Dragon as he stood up and came around the table to get to me.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFmjrKNTKO
"I just know how the human mindset works," I said. "I don't really know you at all."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtCaAXoEc4
"Hold up," said Zoey who543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcotA0y3pd
stood beside me as she looked at G-Dragon. "So, you're saying, you 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdDRTVcq3I
called for this meeting to get us in trouble?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vaxIOPODB
"That's a simple way of putting it," said G-Dragon as he smiled at Zoey.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwiobdI77C
"Told you we'll 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaIKZZY6ns
experience a death trap," Zoey muttered loud enough for everyone to hear543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2QRMUBPzh
as she went to stand beside the others at the other end of the table.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeB8UkltCgW
"But is he going to do 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHmdLO2ptx
that?" Rosé asked. "He will need a lot of evidence to show that we all 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsZj56tCYT
didn't really meet by coincidence."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHHgYDMbJg
There was silence in the543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfU5KThGFNz
room until Daniel and Mike murmured "oh no" at the same time. I knew 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkwpc6eNwY
that just like me, they had already figured out what G-Dragon was 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTuJDdS3KO
planning to do.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9RLQwyR3K
"He doesn't need any evidence to trap us," said Mike.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZDvR7tXV2
"What do you mean?" Jisoo who sat beside him asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcAEIM6YNm
"The managers would believe him if talks about what happened the day before yesterday at the hotel," said Daniel.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofu7NFuHIi
"The time WINNER came to see us," said Christine as the realisation settled in.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9994cPEvuB
"And they would take his word because he has Daesung and Seungri to back him up," I said.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjnFt20Apr
"And also because he's 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwPHpVrg0W
our senior," said Zoey as she folded her arms. "That's how he even 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9s2HvubM9B
managed to set this meeting up in the first place."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4iajl5cgT
"Well, you Toxins did your homework," said G-Dragon.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdB0OFgJEFy
"Why do I feel like I'm in court?" Seungyoon asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAKUFJ2wr1
"It's because we are and we have to take defence," I said.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGc3UKVBd8
"Can't we just settle this matter somehow?" Jinwoo asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbg45IeaTzz
"Why do I feel I just entered an episode of Suits?" Mike asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CzurzHtJo
I turned to look at Mike and I wasn't the only who did. Mike shrugged his shoulders.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3zjYp2YKu
"What? I watch Suits from time to time."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr38789buEl
"What will it take so that you won't tell our managers?" Seunghoon asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvExFwSFtN
G-Dragon smiled. He had 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuh44WiqGr
us right where he wanted. I was so not liking this right now. When I 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcHrFtA68y
thought we would be dealing with our managers, we actually were meant to543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUkBfuAA4i
deal with G-Dragon instead.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLTvX7ebTF
"I'm glad you brought that up because I was thinking of the same thing," said G-Dragon.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJzhCNPoJg
"What do you want?" I asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIRxP3PCtF
G-Dragon looked at me as543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDbXkRRAPt
he bit his lip. I looked straight at him in the eye wondering why he 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJWjxbQdno
was doing all of this. I had a hunch, but I had to be sure of it before I543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIBvxOyULO
came to any conclusions.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoDVDf8VZf
"To make things clear 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNmZAIxFwO
with all of you," said G-Dragon. "I might have brought up this idea of a543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz35KLVhfee
meeting in the first place concerning BTW, but the managers had been 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59en4BSBVd
thinking about doing the same thing."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQ5KOu5RQP
"That still doesn't change the fact that all this was your idea," said Seungyoon.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUnyBzp68m
"You're right. And just to give you a heads up, the managers aren't going to let BTW be a group."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJ4o8RSK9Y
"We already know that," said Zoey. "We all had a feeling that it would come to this."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYjEp4lLqW
"And we will not allow it," said Rosé.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboScay3D5f
"Most of us are up for this idea and some of the fans too," said Mino.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1m1CShscHV
"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."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mW9M7mB0p
"You want us to agree or else you tell our managers everything," I said.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9GEACTTnv
"All's fair in love and 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JMOah4gpy
war." G-Dragon gave a huge smile. "You guys are stubborn and they might 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4zgrbh3dr
just agree to your whims. So just accept what they bring up and we can 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6RMic2vW0
go and pretend we never even had this meeting."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZV2G0v7t20
"Come on," Christine 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyf03TAPmFI
complained. "As if BTW is even going to be an ongoing thing. The Toxins 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkNhMp9b6m
won't be here for long and you know it."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjexprNUtK
"Christine's right," said Lisa. "I don't think it's wrong if we make BTW temporarily."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nwxUeUDbN
"BTW is nothing but a 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmijCW1kx5P
collaborative group on my part," I said. "It's almost in the same way 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vCv7gnIFr
artists collaborate. Like the way The Toxins and BigBang did."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORzzfCcRyv
"I firmly agree with Sam," said Jisoo.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvFLNJX64w
"We all do," said Seunghoon. "Just imagine what BTW can do."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsu7Vztp1xQ
"Who knows, we might just have our own show!" Zoey said excitedly.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIE1O7ASOZ5
"Which won't last long by the way," pointed out Mike.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2s34UWJIx4
"And it's going to attract a lot of media attention like it did yesterday," said Jinwoo.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvdEyBGqXR
"We might just make BTW involved in market promotions too," said Mino.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKBh1kYr6l
"That's being business minded and I like it," said Jennie.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIiDIDsBdj
"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.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQtGzUWikK
"Well, you guys can dream all you want but it isn't going to happen," said G-Dragon.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ck9ACebzx
Upon saying that, the 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjkrSy7aEl
door to the conference room flew open. I turned to the door and coming 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSOJMLBLxL
in were the two managers and Lee. For a moment I grew silent with 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoItAkBhTk
everyone else in the room due to their sudden presence. Those who were 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGDyA6aN0c
seated stood up.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfxbwpfdiq
I gulped. I hope the 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5kWwCRBCy
managers hadn't heard the entire conversation. Especially the part where543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFF5zVfxnu
G-Dragon was to get us in trouble by telling them the truth.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOGHj5w3Rs
The two managers had 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6INiXLELLf
their eyes on me at first and I felt they had finally figured what was 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVPM9WoJ0V
going on. I wanted to break into a sweat when they looked at me. But I 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTKGx4QABp
kept myself calm telling myself that I maybe over thinking and nothing 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAPMyR85Ow
is wrong.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nBFX0kjGS
"Good that you're all 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEMnybM9Jl
here," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We have a few things to discuss. Zoey, 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4chuGsHR7
Seunghoon, Sam, Jiyong, take your seats, please. And everyone else too."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVYVxeLhSo
I have always hated it 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡec2PvXazf4
when managers have that serious tone in their voice that shook every 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYPSYfFqXR
cell in your body. I quickly took the chair in front of me and G-Dragon 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SyVoepfF3
sat to my left and Seunghoon to my right. For some reason, I felt really543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMukku8HvHS
uncomfortable sitting in between them. The others sat back down on 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sS65SBrbK
their seats.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YnbiPFoyZ
The two managers and Lee543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQDvC9DowA
stood at the other end of the table and we all had our eyes on them. I 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrl2j0NWOp
started to silently tap my fingers on the polished wooden table as I bit543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBBPrVcchc
my lower lip. I turned to look at the others and even though some were 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylancZ6BIP
trying to put up a straight face, I could tell they were as nervous as I543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTSpkZ5f2x
was.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoA7wjWW8L6
"Everyone in here looks really tense," said Collins. "As though you weren't the ones laughing about yesterday at Time Square."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGuRZtl6Wd
"Well, we all know why we are," I said as I looked at Collins. "And we know it's something serious."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDrU9VB96N
"You're right, it is serious," said Yang Hyun-suk.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LRmSEFxOB
Zoey sighed loudly in 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiRQYrwftU
frustration and everyone turned to look at her. "Please just say it 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3hLYOcjjI
already," she said. "'You created a huge mess yesterday, blah, blah, 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KbHk0R3tR
blah you weren't supposed to meet, blah, blah, blah and so BTW was just a543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6T7QM8spE
one day thing.' Some of us just want to go back to the hotel and watch 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBbjBXXj4O
some K-drama to forget the horrible aftermath of this meeting."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu72PYDwEzS
The two managers 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡin0oaPgfNR
chuckled at Zoey's response and I couldn't figure out why they found it 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6bDx0smRI
so amusing when most of us in this room were grieving in the inside. 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPFwHvw2LL
That was so not cool.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpy381ZmhiV
"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."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSo2Nc3cmma
"Here we go," muttered Jessie as she leaned back on her chair and closed her eyes in despair.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVqBJ5ZBcv
"But that doesn't mean we can't reconsider it," said Collins.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkip4dkKfW
My ears perked up when 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTLhGkJAY9
Collins said the word "reconsider." And I bet the others were all 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihFQAfoFsK
attentive too. Could it be that they might just turn things around?543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqkbdSZ5nN
Seunghoon cleared his throat. "What do you mean?" he asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgR5voZfQi
"We heard you outside 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4aAZbIrEuh
the door discussing or rather debating about making BTW a real group 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJakgV9HNa
thing even if it's just temporary," said Yang Hyun-suk.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOurEJG0IE
"And as stood by the door, we reconsidered giving BTW a shot," said Collins.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLzjxImcre
"For real?" I couldn't believe my ears.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEE9JczKOaS
"Yes, Sam. For real," 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyCJzFFt0V
said Yang Hyun-suk. "But don't get your hopes up because we have to go 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUqRiDAR1q
through further scrutiny about this decision."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKeZrySpkwF
I smiled. Even if they 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jRYCVyRk4
were saying we shouldn't get our hopes up, it was quiet clear they were 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEFmWuG4sm
up for the idea themselves and that meant BTW was a go.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1njcQzT5WI
There was an exciting 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhczvatQdsd
feeling in the air now that the whole BTW crew were all rejuvenated by 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbxF9doY2R
the exciting news. We were all smiling to ourselves and already I could 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1K7GRHemZ4
see that Zoey and Lisa who sat next to each other were ready to clap 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMd5WDkMAFf
their hands but they hid them under the table so that the managers 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKwOmQnmKS
wouldn't notice as they clapped silently.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ81hXgSd9q
"Are you sure about this?" G-Dragon asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffLAIngrAl
I turned to my other 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQPt9G762c
side and I realised that the whole time we had been talking to our 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByHJw6Z57H
managers, I had been so oblivious that GD was sitting next to me. Maybe 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1puEDYI2ur
it's because right now, he felt like a traitor and his presence right 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HAfevZ3te
now, didn't matter.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6NaA3p79c
"You heard them when 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzneKgIhVl
they talked to you about it," said Yang Hyun-suk. "In such cases, it's 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkjhyoSnYe
good to be business minded and see how all this goes."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BzcXJLCca
"So, you all agree to this, right?" Mike asked with his eyebrow raised just to be sure.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4SfaK5HCT
"To be perfectly clear, yes, we agree," said Collins.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kfDCAknGL
"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.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndmuHACHDJ
This time it was me, or I543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Cf5yrEngo
can say, BTW, trapping G-Dragon. G-Dragon turned to look at me and he 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCgBzbz5Zy
knew it. The managers' plan in the first place was not to make BTW an 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYPSZrvHpT
official group and if we refused, they would G-Dragon would tell them 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39FVZSqBcJ
our secret and there would be no BTW. And due to the condition G-Dragon 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkWNb4ziHB
had laid out for us in the first place, there was simply no need for him543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Xiw4CUOTz
to reveal our little secret anymore. All he told us to do was to agree 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SgppvqjJR
to whatever the managers' decision was and we were doing just that. And 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrqhOMbNv1
there was no going back on his word. Look who's laughing now.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNr7hUe8pls
"Of course you should agree because whatever we decide is an order," said Yang Hyun-suk.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpoJtgLhFr
"Yep, an order is an order," said Mino with a huge grin on his face.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllDiZBoNER
"I really thought they wouldn't make BTW official," said Jisoo. "Now that it is, I agree."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhARn86tJNi
"We all agree," said Daniel.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AKN6SGrqB
"Hold your horses, people," said G-Dragon. "It hasn't been made official."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrgVTtCHxL
"But just because it 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRLV2FLbxp
hasn't, doesn't mean that it will," said Seunghoon as he looked over at 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFKh2UWrya
G-Dragon with a victory smile on his face. That made me smile even more.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dhXcT3EbV
"Okay, so that's settled543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡds4YlclWaK
then," said Collins. "We will discuss for now and see what the seniors 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJJpeEHMTq
have to say. Once they agree, we will begin with the paper work and make543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EsFLQV5mj
BTW official."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsl6IzlbmU
"Of course they will agree," said Rosé. "Who wouldn't?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVjC9zDjDE
I noticed that most of 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlkoyks1Vv
the eyes on the table especially from BTW flew to G-Dragon. Mine also 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jK35UO9p6
did the same. Luckily, the managers never noticed a thing. But Lee did 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3zoQ93VUd
when she looked at me and I grinned.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNb8kkXqgdy
"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."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ851Xulc6B1
There was dead silence in the room when Yang Hyun-suk mentioned he had one condition. My heart started to race.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRhBkfmSqs
"Before we make BTW 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90SkLErj2V
official, may I advise that you three groups don't meet each other too 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzhbs6Algw
often," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We don't want to raise a lot of people's 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXI1FEDqVnH
hopes thinking that the group might be official so you better keep it 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDPhFOEHnr
low for a while. Is that good?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJKgVEr0XT
"Fine by me," said Seungyoon. "As long as we can ask for your permission from time to time."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHruumJaHuJ
"That's fair enough," 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAJoMxEs4M
said Collins. "But today, you won't go and hang out after this because 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGr8hZkqoM2
already there are too many of your fans lurking around hoping for BTW to543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYkzXKuH4k
be official and they can use anything just to let other people believe 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgVbZqcXrt
so."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmMSjGyULW
"So you want to crush 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfu92FrPE3f
their hopes and later surprise them when you make the group official," I543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUapHy4BpD
said while I nodded my head. "I had to admit, that's a pretty good 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5w8hKBBsNd
strategy."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwxGT8ZBCZ
"Then if all is well and543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcDTvyM7a8
good, we will be leaving then," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We will keep you 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6scEGvMgW
updated and not a word on social media."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZneweZlvT
I stood up from my seat 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvqbzxJkNo
and everyone else did the same. As our managers made their way for the 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkhsalP3pp
door with Lee I couldn't help but smile and just as they were about to 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMjrNonUNM
walk out, I stopped them.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSX9hnLVP8
"Wait," I said and the two managers turned to look at me.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7jXd2jw4w
"What is it, Sam?" Collins asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnF7V1J9gR
"Thank you," I beamed and I bowed. "Kamsahabnida (감사합니다)."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8d83qSDvqr
The rest of BTW also bowed and also said thank you. The two managers smiled at our lovely gesture.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh65TVuPsQP
"If it weren't for that I might just declare BTW official today," said Yang Hyun-suk.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSmj7f94q9
"You would?" Zoey, Jessie, Christine and Jisoo asked at the same time. I rolled my eyes and shook my head.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRZqQtTio9
"No." Yang Hyun-suk 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6HcyBBa20
smiled even more and he walked out of the room with Collins. Lee waited a543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAihNTpAgCC
few seconds by the door until the managers disappeared down the hall.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSsthGb1dY
"Congratulations, BTW," she said quietly. She looked really happy. "You did it!"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmTSeuQd2b
"Another music collaboration for The Toxins," I said with a smile.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunreClYt5g
"And triple more of the fun," said Mike.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVF88AaaUZi
"Now that I totally agree," said Daniel as he gave his brother a high five.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCMVmN3Cqj
"This is like the best 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTygBAm6DKb
news ever," said Zoey. "Thank you so much, Sam for making me feel like 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQuS6FmmEi
all hope was lost when actually things turned out alright."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChmLC3QRki
"I don't think you should be thanking Sam for that," said Jinwoo.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZl8yhrpXB
"Jinwoo's right," I said. "We wouldn't have been able to get our managers to reconsider if it wasn't for G-Dragon."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iWzE5iZMn
The room grew silent as all eyes were on Jiyong. I looked at him through the corner of my eye and smiled.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdleWlZt9Tw
"I've to admit you played me very well," said G-Dragon with a look of defeat on his face. "Congrats."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvaRJs1nXw
"All this wouldn't have happened if you hadn't tried to trap us in the first place," said Seunghoon.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakvF1wGmnI
"I knew there was a 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPth8vseqI
reason for G-Dragon to have called for this meeting in the first place,"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cWuugrV6W
said Lee. She shook her head in disappointment as she looked at 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfc8ToLhCA
G-Dragon.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcv5ohoRBl
"You knew?" Christine asked.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpJzoAifHH
"I got to find out when I went to see the managers."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbzAuu2SuF
"But everything turned in our favour in the end," said Lisa. "So, I'm not even that mad at him at all."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZkzdeVB1d
"You just got lucky because the managers happen to be eavesdropping on our conversation at the wrong time," said G-Dragon.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDecA4jZr8C
"At the right time on our part," said Mino.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUVv5lS81q
"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.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdMM8qIHUx
"Thank you, G-Dragon!" BlackPink said all together. "We love you!"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetcfbzPubn
"Well, you guys can tell543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFT6uSe0nN
me how this all went down from the beginning, but right now, you all 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGdJPZSNHa
have to go," said Lee. "And I'm supposed to see to it that you all 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCJu0dRRCG
aren't going to go into the same car."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjUBQOaLuk
"Don't worry, we won't disobey our managers after all this," I said. "Can I have a talk with G-Dragon alone, please?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoI1N5HZHm
Everyone else started to543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xyzAKWtmk
slowly step out of the room and I made sure to say bye to BlackPink and543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mmPIfzBjy
WINNER. When everyone had left, Lee closed the door behind her. It was 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIp8aG1L0Cb
only G-Dragon and I.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrSsfI2fJy
"I'm mad at you," I started.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdqjV0vltW
"I know," he replied. "Sam....."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzCoWM1YXp
"Save it." I held my 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kD1lWyK2Y
hand up to silence him. "You know, you reminded me of all those times 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzIATuNIMV
you and I used to get into a fight and it seems you're bringing it all 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwmv2oqAwx
back. I thought we were past that but now it's like you want to bring up543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VTsPNugoU
a war again."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRCu8dvMSI
"I'm not trying to bring up a war."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf88BoRzJNA
"You put us in a horrible position and we had to fight against you. That my friend, is called a war."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqivJfZ5qx4
"Look, Sam, you've already won and I admit that trying to rattle you out to our managers was wrong of me."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNp7POEdvDK
I folded my arms. "Great! You realise it now when everything backfired on you and you didn't get what you want."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUOdUkOROa
G-Dragon looked at me 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVkzEYXAyO
and me at him. Right now, I was fuming and I felt like I was going to 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacsRpYscFn
burst. I never knew he would turn on us like this and it hurt me like a 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8UVEVctMz
stab in the heart.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEejOTiEcYA
"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."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaePirQF1H
"You know, the others 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcDC3xJl62
might forgive you because of the outcome but I am so mad that you could 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyi5tFvoQWG
ever do this just because you don't like it when we went out to hang out543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WpQrRevny
with WINNER yesterday."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2t28VkOEFO
"If you're trying to say that I'm jealous, then yes, I am."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pnq6XiBS1
I nodded my head. What I543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjJKK5C7j4
thought from the beginning the time I came to the conference room was 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnsD1eFvWd
true. He was jealous. Not just of The Toxins hanging out with WINNER but543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzOMRNSxxP
of Seunghoon and I.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9zqJzqTf0
"You know you and I can 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gKnblPbJL
only be friends and that relationship can't go any further than that. 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrkgErWYmm
It's the same thing with Seunghoon. And until you get over it, I suggest543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYyYypRVeO
you find a way for me to forgive you or this friendship might just go 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgnHL0Y8GQ
down the rocks."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaIMCMhSO3
I headed for the door 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPF9TzzYvN
without a second thought and I didn't even get to look at him one. As 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKUfGncQtw
soon as I found myself in the hall heading for the elevator, there stood543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6jEIlv3Td
Zoey, waiting.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAFJEpQbBY
"I'm guessing you put him in his place," said Zoey as I approached her.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFb9kKPOxNG
"I sure hope so," I said543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9SSa9YbM7
with a sigh. I felt like I had just arm wrestled with a body builder 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMegoI3VZsm
and emerged victorious, but at the same time came out exhausted.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUd0H68npIf
"When you're this mad, trust me, you do know how to put people in their place."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEB2nmeY3N
Zoey turned around and pressed the button to summon the elevator. When the elevator came, we stepped in and the doors closed.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrMOyQzuDk
"I guess you figured out what G-Dragon and I talked about last night," said Zoey as she looked at me.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloI2csbOpT
"It wasn't that hard to figure it out," I said.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyAgAfwict
"Just like it wasn't hard for you to know that G-Dragon would be here. Sometimes your mind works like a supercomputer."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vOFZXyyHO
"You know computers are 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnG4q4QYN8c
just dumb machines, right?" I looked at Zoey. "They only do what they do543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29fM0Q3BNz
because they have commands installed in them to work as they are 543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyH2giKJiAd
supposed to."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzdFOwhFTK
"You're right. You're like a detective who plays by her own rules and always connects the dots."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVjLxMavWI
I smiled. "You always call me that."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSpAoLLlSb
"Ya, because you're smart too."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP47KU5OWO7
The elevator reached the ground floor and we came out of the elevator finding ourselves in the lobby.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizQh6eratN
"You know we should celebrate our victory," said Zoey.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3f8tuef9Ek
"How?" I asked. "The group hasn't been made official and we can't celebrate when the three groups aren't together."543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2BCSzoV9N
"We can figure something out," said Zoey. "We won't have to be all together in one place, you know?"543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzN4B7od4CT
"I think I've an idea," I said as we walked out into the parking lot heading to the car.543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00k0xpAllg
"I knew you would," said Zoey as she wrapped her arm around my shoulders.
