Chapter 26 - Luhan's Birthday Video Call
Behind the Scenes
Luhan POV
“Luhan gege!! Um, I made you a birthday card...on the internet! So you, um, need to see it right now! And I want everyone else to see it too, so let’s all sit around the computer!” Zitao dragged me toward the laptop and plopped me into the chair in front of it. I narrowed my eyes slightly. Why do I feel like he’s setting me up for a video call like we did for Sehun...
“Zitao, is EXO-K going to call us or something?” I accused.
His eyes widened. “Psh, n-no...” he stuttered, waving his hand weakly.
“Then where’s the e-card...?”
“Um...” Zitao looked around wildly, grasping for an answer. “Here!” he said suddenly, moving the cursor to hover over an icon on the desktop. “In Skype!”
Kris face-palmed. I chuckled.
“If EXO-K is going to call us, you can just tell me now, because it’s no longer a surprise,” I told him light-heartedly.
“Awwww,” Zitao whined. “It worked for Sehun...”
“But Joonmyun gave him a better excuse to look at the computer,” I pointed out, eyes twinkling.
He stuck his tongue out at me. “Pretend you’re surprised, at least.”
“How’s this?” I opened my eyes widely at him and formed an O with my mouth, raising my hand to cover it.
Minseok laughed at my expression, even if he probably hadn’t understood our rapid Chinese. Oh baozi, you’re so cute.
“Hmph,” Zitao huffed. “Please just act surprised, please please please?” He looked at me with innocent eyes. Geez, you remind me of Sehun so much at times. Your aegyo can make us do anything...
“Oh, alright,” I gave in.
“Yayyyy~” he squealed, clapping his hands together. We all laughed.
“Don’t make fun of me,” he pouted. “It’s not- OMG! THEY’RE CALLING!” He climbed over me to pick up the call on the laptop.
“Oof, watch it, Zitao!” I complained. He ignored me and answered the call.
Before any of us could do anything, EXO-K appeared on the screen, yelling: “Happy Birthday, Luhan!!”
I broke out into a smile, embarrassed but feeling very loved and thankful for my brothers.
“Thanks, guys. You’re the best!” I made a hand heart, and they laughed.
Zitao coughed and elbowed me in the ribs.
“Oh, right. I’m soooo surprised,” I said, making my shocked face again.
They cracked up.
When they settled down, Kris suggested we do individual messages again. They were all really sweet to me, and we were all very comfortable with each other. My throat tightened and I could feel my chest constricting. I miss you guys so much.
Somehow, it was understood between them that Sehun should be saved for last.
When it came to his turn, he cleared his throat awkwardly.
“Luhan-hyung, first of all, happy birthday! You’re so old,” he groaned, making a face. I smiled. “Anyway, I hope that his year, you can be happy and laugh a lot, and I hope you will be very successful! But you shouldn’t have a problem since so many fans love you. I wish we can be together soon, and not have to separate. I...I really don’t know what I’d do without you. Honestly, I didn’t know true friendship until I met you. Hyung, I love you~” He smiled and made a heart for me with his arms. My heart swelled at his words.
Sehun, I miss you so much. I just want to be with you again.
“Thank you,” I breathed. He nodded, probably understanding that I was getting emotional.
All too soon, it was time to go. Darn you, stupid schedule.
They all wished me a happy birthday again. Waving goodbye, we pressed the ‘end call’ button at the same time again. At least we’ll be together in two weeks.
But that’s still too far away.
