Finally! Sleeping in till morning has been an impossible task for Jongin, and well all EXO members in fact considering their weekly overseas concerts, individual schedules and additional practices. The sudden shot to fame ever since Growl has brought lots of tears and sweat. Sometimes in the midst of the attention they receive, Jongin wonders the tears they shed are because of happiness, that they are finally here, or because they have lost everything, and there's no turning back to that peaceful life anymore.

Yet his holiday is way too short for him to join them in their road trip so he decided that he should just stay in his, well, second home. 

Two days. Not a long break, but neither is it that short. Jongin laughed pathetically at the thought that he is going to spend the break alone in the dorm. Taemin is off to Japan for promotion with SHINee. That leaves only her, but she has been busy filming her drama and Jongin really does not want to take up her very rare break.

As if on cue, the doorbell rang and there's Soojung at the doorstep, smil
