Everyone bows down to each other, exchanging “thank you”s and “you’ve worked hard"s with a smile. EXO has just finished recording another episode for EXO’s Showtime and now the staffs are packing up the cameras, tripods, and so on. The members themselves have to stay at the filming set longer because their manager has just informed that their vans got stuck in a traffic jam so they have to wait for maybe an hour or two.

Chanyeol looks around before fishing his phone out and tapping on the line icon; this feels like déjà vu because his fellow members are silent—except this time Baekhyun is wide awake, not like the last time they have that embarrassing group chat.

9:19pm     guys

A series of notification sounds can be heard and Chanyeol giggles to himself; this is all too familiar.
