009 - Our maknae

"Duizhang! Duizhang!! Tao is smiling when he see our picture at Disney Land! Come see it!"

a screaming from Luhan make Kris stop a moment his work, now chopping some vegetable for his dinner tonight.

"Are you sure?" Kris frowning his face. Luhan nodded fastly, he persuade Kris again to come with him with pulling Duizhang together for seeing Tao at Sehun and Suho share room.

Kris face plastered with smile when he see Lay and Xiumin now happily told their story at Disney Land. While Tao who are between them have a thin smile, when see their taken picture at Disney Land shown at him by Xiumin. Even though, Exo-K now busy with their schedule, they still spend some time with Tao when they have some free time.

They know, they cannot push a reality their facing now. Honestly, Tao didn't give any respond for them. When Tao alone, Tao will spacing out while laying down on bed. Tao will eat when someone feed him and going to bath when someone bathed him. He will wear a cloth when someone help him put some cloth at his body. Once time, they start stop give a hope for their maknae, but Xiumin as older hyung always come into right time, give them a courage and cheer them well.

 "Tao-er?" Tao turn his head to Kris now standing at door.

"Kris-ge?" Kris gasped a breath when hear Tao's faint voice.

After 2 weeks Tao's missing, Tao even not let out his voice. Kris smiling bitterly, his heart start clenching hard. He really miss their maknae's voice. Kris move closer to their maknae now sitting on bed. Kris take a seat beside Tao, he stared long at the maknae. Tao's eyes still same, still empty. Tao still in same condition. Kris know it, when Tao said his name, he really made a hope their Tao is come back.. But.. Tao still same Tao.

"Tao-er, you said my name a second ago.. It means you miss Kris-ge right?"

Kris grinned alone when he hear his joke. Tao silence make Kris fall in deep silence too. Tao now stare at Kris's face make the duizhang just blinking in awkward situation. Then Tao lay his head on Kris lap make the duizhang again blinked twicely. He shock also happy at same time.

Are that sign for them, Tao is trying to out from his mind little by little? Kris hand start caressing and playing gently Tao's soft hair. He smiling a bit when he remembered Tao once told him. When he was young , Tao really like lay his head on his Grandma's lap. Then his Grandma will playing his hair till he sleep. Kris cracked a smile when he hear a slight faint snore from Tao.

Baekhyun at outside also smiling when see the scene. He hurried to the living rooms to tell other about this progression.

Kris now gently caressing Tao's head who now laying on bed beside Kris. His eyes still same. Lay and Luhan who also sitting beside Tao is laughing and having fun teasing each other. Chen and Xiumin who are sitting at other beside bed still cannot stop told Tao about their funny story.

"Tao~ Did you want hear a song 'Angel' from our album? You love this song right?"

asked Luhan suddenly. All of them silent waiting an answer from Tao, but they already know. Tao will not responded it. Luhan smiled bitterly, he bitted his lips nervously.

"You said, you really love this song. How about ge sing it for you?"

Silence. Tao not give any response. Luhan straight his body, he started singing. Luhan soft voice start echoing entire room. 

Hao xiang shen me dou bu dong de yi ge hai zi yi yang chun zhen

Chong sheng na ge mei li de shun jian

"Pure, like the innocence of a child who doesn’t know better 

Born in this beautiful moment"

After that, Lay continue singing his part. Then Xiumin and Chen singing his part after that.

Shuang yan bi shang you zheng kai le pa zhe yi qie zhi shi meng Liu lian

Wo jiu zhen cheng zhan zai ni mian qian ke wang de dao ni shi xian

Zhi shi xiang he ni yi qi zou
Liang ge ren yong tong yang de bu diao xie zou

Yi ci jiu zu gou

"Eyes, closing and opening again, afraid this is only a dream

Not wanting to let go, I stand before you honestly, wishing for your attention

I only want to be with you
Our footsteps in harmony,

Just once is enough"

At chorus part, they five singing along too with put their own feelings together into it. The room's atmosphere changing into full harmonious of tenderness.

Dang wo cheng zuo zhe feng 

Zai ni de shi jie jiang luo
Bai se de feng
Zai ni shen bian huan rao zhe

Ni wen wo lai zi na li
Xiao zhe hui da shi mi mi
Zhi yao shi ni he wo
Yi qi zou xia qu
Tian tang zai sui shi he sui di 

"As I ride the wind

I descend upon your world
The white wind
surrounding only you

You ask where I come from
I say 'it’s a secret' with a smile
As long as you’re with me
Heaven is anytime, anywhere"

Luhan know, maybe with this.. they cannot get their maknae back to them. But Tao once told him before, when he singing this song together. He feel one feelings so deep towards his hyungs, one feelings made he feel their bond between them so strong. And Tao really love his Geges. 

Dui wo lai shuo ni bi tian shi hai can lan yao yan

Ru guo you shui dui ni bu yi
Wo yi ding bu yun xu

Fang fu di yi ci jin ru yi dian yuan de tan te bu an

Rang wo mei tian zhi shi wang zhe ni
Xin li yi zhi xiang zhe ni
Suo sui de chen ai he sha li
Wo bu hui rang na xie shang hai kao jin ni
Yong yuan shou hu ni
I'm eternally love

"To me you’re more illuminating than an angel

If anyone wills any ill towards you,
I won’t let it happen

Nervous as if I’m stepping into Eden for the first time

I want to look at you everyday,
Think of you everyday
The endless sand and dust, 
I won’t let any of it hurt you or near you
Guarding you forever, 
I’m eternally in love"

It make a little hope for Luhan, their maknae maybe will recover after hear they singing his favourite song and come back to them.

Wei ni dang xia kuang feng

Shen wei ni de shou hu zhe
Yong yuan you wo
Jiu suan shi jie dou leng mo

Mei ci ni tong ku wei qu
Wei ni hui ba lei ca qu
Ru guo shi ni he wo
Bu guan zai na li
Tian tang shi sui shi he sui di

"Blocking the gusts for you

 I am your guardian
 You’ll always have me

Anytime you are hurt or sad,
I will wipe away those tears
As long as you’re with me"

 

This time, when Luhan singing his part after Chen, he start teared when he remember all his memories with Tao. 

Ai shang ni de wo zai ye mei you di fang ke hui tou

Chi bang yi jing bu zai you
Yong heng de sheng ming bei duo zou, oh no
Ke wo yi ran gan jue xing fu wei yi de li you

"When I fell in love, there’s no turning back

My wings were lost,
my eternal life stripped away, oh no
But my one and only reason for my happiness"

Moreover with Tao's condition now, Luhan really miss their maknae now. He know, all of Exo also miss see their Kungfu Panda again. Miss to hear a loud cute voice their Kungfu Panda, miss to hear Tao talk Korean in his cute way, miss to see a red face Tao when he said something wrong in Korean language, miss to see Tao cute shy face when get teased.

His voice start hoarsed when at the his middle part with Chen.

Yin wei wo de yong heng xian zai jiu shi ni, Eternally love

"Right now my eternity is you, Eternally in love"

They all sing again at last chorus.

Dang wo cheng zuo zhe feng

Zai ni de shi jie jiang luo
Bai se de feng
Zai ni de shen bian huan rao zhe from you

Ni wen wo lai zi na li
Xiao zhe hui da shi mi mi
Zhi yao shi ni he wo
Yi qi zou xia qu

"As I ride the wind

 I descend upon your world,
The white wind
surrounding only you from you

 You ask where I come from
I say it’s a secret with a smile
 As long as you’re with me"

And at last part, Luhan ending it well.

Tian tang zai sui shi he sui di 

"Heaven can be anytime, anywhere"

A silence again filled in the rooms. Luhan lower his head, he cannot hold his tears again after too much pressure in two weeks.  Slowly, his tears streaming down into his cheek. He failed to get back their maknae again....

"Luhan ge's voice...hoarse..at last part."

They all gasped a breath. Luhan lifting his head, he see a smile at Tao's face.

"I miss.. hear ge voice.."

Time as if stop for the moments. Luhan quickly touch Tao's cheek. He look into Tao's eyes and then pull the maknae into his tight hug. All of them smiling, their Tao... finally is back.

"You are back, Tao~ I miss you so much~~!" Luhan cried while tightening his hug.

Their maknae just smiled back also cried in happiness. Tao also miss his Gege so much.. Other three also put themself into a group hug too.
