Jongin to Sehun

kai: Sehun

sehun: What is it? 

kai: Kisoo slapped me.

sehun: Lolll dude what did you do?

kai: I might have lost myself a bit and yelled at him.

sehun: Why so? 

kai: Because he went missing.. and I found him on the streets, I think he was out since last night.. I got so angry because he is being careless again and he is not telling me anything

sehun: Do you think…

kai: Yeah..

sehun: Look, he may have done something stupid but you didn't need to yell at him lol. He's going through something obvs and it doesn't warrant you going bat crazy on his face.

kai: So what do i do??

sehun:

Apologize

Duh

Go easy on him

He'll tell you when he's ready

Kyungsoo has an hour.

An hour to prepare for his "interview". He wanders around the room. The place is big enough for a family. With gray walls and sleek furniture, whoever stays here must be rich.

They also have a walk-in closet where expensive clothes are clattered. It is as big as his entire bedroom in Goyang, Kyungsoo wows in amazement.

Right. He has to dress up. And so he picks whatever he sees first. A black long sleeve polo shirt and grey slacks. This is neat right?

He's still wandering around when he hears a sound.

A phone ringing.

He walks to where it comes from and picks it up. The one ringing. There are two phones actually, one with a black case, and another one with a purple case.

The black phone is locked and it requires a fingerprint. His thumb hovers above the scanner, before he presses it lightly.

It unlocked. Woah. This is so weird.

There are 56 missed calls and 13 unread messages from a Manager Kai. He opens the messages and reads them. They were a bunch of Where are you??! and profanities. But the most recent one caught his attention. 

Kai

I'm sorry.

Kyungsoo huffs. So the man earlier is named Kai, and he is his manager. Wait, what?

Kisoo.

He remembers. That is the name Kai keeps calling him.

He uses the phone to look it up, he doesn't know why he's nervous as he's typing the word but he is so tense with what he could find out.

He clicks the enter button and the results show up in less than a second.

Kisoo

Roh Kisoo (born January 12, 1993), is a South Korean singer. He is best known as a member of R&B duo EXO.

Oh my god. Kyungsoo gasps.

The man.

The man who died last night was Roh Kisoo.

The first thing he does is text Baekhyun.

Baek

HELP

The man from last night

His name is Roh Kisoo

Who? 

What? 

How come you don't know him?? You live in freaking Seoul! 

I don't know! Am I supposed to? 

I guess?? Look him up and tell me.

….

….

HOLY ING

KYUNGSOO

IT'S YOU WITH BETTER CLOTHES

Shut up!! 

Now you believe me? 

YES

HE'S A KPOP IDOL

HOW COME I DIDN'T KNOW

My question too. 

Anyway

His manager.. He found me and dragged me to this idol's dorm

And now he's gonna take me to an interview

What do I do Baek?? 

Holy

Umm

Just play along

Pretend you are Kisoo

What??! 

Are you serious?? 

Yes

You're already there

But

How

I don't even know this Kisoo

You can watch videos of him

And copy the way he talks

The way he moves

Baek

He's a singer

And??? 

You sing too

You're amazing at that

I know

But

I don't like big crowds

I don't think I can do this idol stuff

Hey listen

You said it's just an interview right? 

I'm sure they won't make you sing

Yet

So just try to survive this

And then we'll think of our next move

Why are you being so calm with this

I am shaking Baek

I'm gonna pretend as a dead person

A DEAD PERSON

Who said I am?

Anyway

I'm actually reading about this Exo group right now

Wow.. your band member is pretty hot

What? 

Park Chanyeol

That's his name

Look it up

Memorize that lovely face

Okay stop

I need to go

Kyungsoo inhales deeply. Is he really going to do this? This is so wrong. He should not meddle with somebody else's life.

Damn it. 

Just this once.

The hour passed like a blur. He spent his remaining time watching videos of Kisoo and EXO. Trying to study the former's mannerisms and characteristics. Kyungsoo was amazed at how similar they were with their vocal techniques. Although he knows he needs more practice and training.

Message from Manager Kai

I'm here outside in the car. Let's go. 

Before he leaves, the purple phone pings with a message.

Message from Unknown Number

Update?

He has no time for this right now.

Another ping from his black phone

Message from Manager Kai

Now.

Kyungsoo rushes out. He doesn't want to keep the manager waiting. 

Lights. Camera. Action. 

Kai doesn't seem to be angry anymore when he comes back, but Kyungsoo still feels te
