I was back at EXO's "HQ" to pick up the left over stuff that I needed to bring to my new apartment.
"Guys!", someone barged in through EXO's front door, "I'm home-!"
Whoever it was, they came in so fast that it nearly made my heart jump out of my chest.
It was Kai.
To be honest, I had forgotten about him up to now.
He froze the second he saw me.
"Who the-?", he looked at me like he was trying to figure out what I was.
I looked at myself to see if I had a huge stain on my shirt, or if my hands turned into octopus tentacles; I even turned around to see if there was something or someone standing behind me. The way he looked at me made me feel like I was an alien.
"Is there a problem?", I finally asked.
"Um, yeah, actually", he kept a sharp eye on me as he slowly shut the door behind him, "Who are you? And what the hell are you doing here?"
"You know who I am, stupid", I shot a look.
He placed his backpack on the ground next to him, and took a better look at my face.
"C'mon", I crossed my arms, "Do you have memory loss or something?"
"I seriously don't-"
"Kai!", I shouted, "You idiot! Its Jiwoo!"
Sometimes I just really wanted to treat people like a glow-stick; shake the heck out of them until that light turns on.
"Ohh", he nodded and then paused for a second, "Wait – Jiwoo?! Sehun's sister?!"
"Mhm", I nodded, trying to keep myself from going insane.
"Ok, so answer the second question I had", he said, "What are you doing here?"
"Picking up some of my stuff"
"What 'stuff'?"
"The stuff I left here before moving to my apartment"
Kai sighed and walked over to the kitchen behind me, getting himself a cup of water.
"Listen", he said, "I was on a week-long mission, and apparently a lot can happen in a week if you live with EXO", he sipped on his water, "So, since the members didn't tell me anything...why not you tell me how you got here"
"Its nothing really", I leaned on the wall next to me, "I just wanted to live my life again, so I dropped NCT Dream and came to Sehun for help"
Kai nodded and pretended it made sense. "And this happened in a week?"
"More or less", I sighed, "It mostly happened in one night, but Sehun was able to close on my apartment in a few days"
"So, why'd you leave NCT Dream, then?", Kai put his glass in the sink and leaned on the counter.
"Because", I started; it was hard for me to talk about it, but I tried to anyway, "I dunno...I was kind of excluded", I thought of Jaemin, "...And one of the members was hiding a lot from me"
"Hiding stuff like what?"
I shrugged awkwardly. "Everything about himself, really", thinking about that whole situation still made me upset, "I just didn't want to trust a person with my life if they weren't even willing to truthfully tell me about themselves"
Kai looked kind of fed up with me and took a deep breath.
"Was it Jaemin?", he crossed his arms and raised his eyebrow.
"I-", my head shot up, "How'd-"
"Its Jaemin, isn't it"
I didn't know what to say, so I just nodded.
My phone buzzed.
It buzzed again.
...And again.
I took a second and pulled my phone out of my back pocket, turning it on to see what my notifications were going crazy for.
There have been motions at your front door. Would you like to check it out?
I opened the app for my security camera for my apartment while notifications for my motion sensors continued to go off.
I looked at my front door...
The door was unlocked and cracked open.
SuperM streamed one of their new songs todayyy!
