LAY's Point Of View:

 

After our performances, I always find time to look at the audiences watching and cheering for us. It has been two years since we debut and I still can't believe that there are lots of people who support EXO. I am very happy to see everyone and as much as I like to thank each of them, I just couldn't. 

 

While gazing at the silver ocean in front of me, I see all the fans who are shouting at the top of their lungs. It is time for us to bid goodbye. But before that, all lights in the concert venue are on and we need to say few messages for the fans.

 

"Thank you for your support, EXO saranghaja!" 

I shouted at the fans happily. I was busy waving to my right when I saw a strange person not far from the stage. Crossed arms and crossed legs. Wearing a black beanie, jacket and a shades? Why would someone wear a shades at night?

 

I didn't realize that I was staring at that person for too long until Kris hyung poked me at the shoulder.

 

"Hey Lay. Let's go. We are done here." He said in a calm voice then smiled at me. He put his arm around my shoulder as we walk to the backstage. I looked again to the place where the mysterious human is seated.

 

It was a wrong move. 

 

I saw this guy and he was looking at me too. He smirked. It gave me goosebumps so I immediately looked at my front and pretended nothing happened.

"Lay-ssi. What are you doing there?" Suho hyung asked me why I am standing near the dorm's window.

 

"Getting fresh air hyung." He then joined me there. We looked at the sky filled with stars. After that I accidentally looked down. I saw a figure behind a tree near our dorm. It was dark and I can't barely see the figure face. I freaked out.

 

"Suho-hyung! There's a person behind the tree. Did you see that?" I held my hyung's arms tightly as i pointed the place where I saw the creepy figure.

 

"Where? There's no one there." Suho hyung looked where am pointing at. I was so shocked that there's nobody there.

 

"B-b-but.... I saw someone."

 

"Maybe it's just a sasaeng. You know, they always stalk us in everywhere we go. As long as they don't hurt us, we should not be afraid of them. We must get used to this situation."

 

Suho hyung told me that we should sleep to regain our strength. We still need to practice for our next concert. So I ran to my bed. I prayed and closed my eyes to sleep.

Two months later.....

 

"Yay vacation!"

Our maknae shouted cheerfully. Mr Lee Soo Man is really nice for he gave us one week vacation after the "EXO - The Lost Planet" Asian concert tour. We are currently debating on a place where we should take our relaxation.

 

"France!" Chanyeol said.

 

"No, we should go to Canada!" Kris insisted.

 

"Hongkong disneyland!" Tao exclaimed.

 

"Why don't we go to all of the places we mentioned?" Kyungsoo suggested.

 

"Wait! We only have one week so we must choose one place." EXO - K's leader said.

 

"How about we go to the house of Baekhyun's grandma?" I said in a shy voice. Everybody stared at me. Baekhyun agreed and the rest second the motion. We started packing our bags after Baekhyun contacted his grandma that we will stay at their house.

4 AM

 

"Have a safe trip!" Our manager will not accompany us in our vacation because he needs to relax too. He waved at us as our van moves. In my peripheral vision, I saw somebody behind the tree. Waving at us too. It was dark that I couldn't see that somebody's face. But when a light flashed at the tree, I stiffened.

 

The strange person from the concert. He was wearing a black beanie, jacket and again, a shades. He gave me a smirk.

 

"Lay!" Luhan hyung startled me causing me to jump a bit on my seat.

 

"What are you looking at?" He added.

 

"Ah-- eh--- n-nothing." I lied.

 

"Are you sure? You look pale. Did you see a ghost?" Xiumin asked.

 

"Ghost? Where? Ahhh!! Hyung cover me, they will get me!!" Scaredy cat Tao hugged his seatmate Baekhyun.

 

"Eeee. Kkaebsong. Hahaha." Baek laughed.

 

"No. I didn't see a ghost." I lied again to Xiumin hyung.

 

"Uh seems like something is bothering you. Spill it. I won't laugh." Xiumin said it to me with a sincere voice. But I was ashamed to tell him that I always saw someone that is likely stalking us. I don't want to assume that it is a sasaeng since the mysterious guy is not doing anything to EXO. No clothes were stolen from us. And nobody is hurt whenever I see this creepy guy.

 

I don't want to tell it to Xiumin hyung because I am afraid that he would not believe me. I need to show proof.

Baekhyun's Grandma's house.....   7AM

 

The sun is risen and Baek's grandma already prepared a feast. So many yummy food that I can't control myself to salivate. I sat on a place where I can see the view from the window. It's obvious that EXO will eat in a noisy way. I am almost done eating when I saw a girl peeking from the gate. 

 

"Uhm, grandma. There is someone at the gate." My co-members turned their heads to the window and they saw a girl. Actually, girl is not really the term for it. We saw a woman wearing a white floral dress.

 

I accompanied grandma on her way to gate and talk to the woman in white. When we get closer, I had the time to take a quick look at her. From her appearance, she wears all white accessories that matches the color of her tan skin. A ribbon on the left side of her head, a white watch and a white purse and travelling bag.

 

"Oh darling, you are here!" Grandma was all smile. The woman removed her shades, smiled sweetly and bowed 90 degrees. It was a usual gesture but I felt that my heart skipped a beat even though the woman didn't glance at me.

 

Grandma asked me to carry her bag to a guest room near our room while they stayed there for few minutes and talked about something before going inside.

 

"Grandsons!" Everybody stopped blabbering and they focus their eyes on the woman instead of the talking grandmother.

 

"This is Song KM. She will be staying here too for a week." Then the girl bowed in front of us. But instead of smiling, she lend us her left hand and asked for a handshake. 

 

Baekhyun ran in front of her and shook her hand. Followed by Kyungsoo, Chen, Chanyeol, Luhan, Xiumin, Suho, Kai, Tao, Kris, and Sehun. I was about to shake her hand but when my skin touches hers, I felt a stinging electricity ran to my palm.

 

"Ahhh!" I shouted.

 

"Are you okay?" Kris hyung asked me.

 

"A-ah yes." I mumbled while caressing my palm. I looked at the woman whose name is KM and then say sorry. She then smiled and went to her room.

 

I sat on the floor to continue eating my food. Few minutes later, my eyes caught something.

 

The plates slipped from my hands. I was startled.

 

 

 

 

It was the mysterious guy.
