Mandarin Hangul

WE'RE FINALLY DONE.Thank goodness.I'm about to collapse anytime with this dizzy feeling and I just wanna lay on bed and ignore everyone around me.They can be really irritating.It's already our second day shooting and I'm exhausted.I want some chocolates and my precious cotton candy like Daegal promised.

"I'm gonna eat my cotton candies and no--" my mini song was interrupted when I opened the door to the dorm, only to be welcomed by a woman I'm very familiar with.A warm smile on her face.Chenle immediately ran towards her direction, greeting his mom.

"Ni hao ma Ahkum-ssi", I greeted her, bowing.She then raised a box of pastries which I'm guessing are sweets but what is she doing here?Not to be rude but I'm just wondering.

"I brought cookies!It's your favorite right?", how embarassing.I seem like some glutton.I just nodded, "What brought you here Ahkum-ssi?", I've been trying to learn Mandarin for a while now and I think I'm getting the hang of it.She just made the rest of us seat, handing out the cookies, 

"Chenle here told me to come visit since you need help and some sweets", the said boy nearly choked upon hearing what his mom just said, "Mom!I told you not t--", "Aww lele", he just hid his face away while the others tease him around.I just raised a brow at him, I didn't ask for more attention didn't I?Renjun began speaking Mandarin to him, probably teasing him too.I don't really understand the other words though. 

"You care for her that much huuuh", "You really called auntie for her aigoo", the 4 of us just shared looks of confusion.The problems of being a multi national group indeed.

Ah kum-ssi then turned to my side, "So are you okay now?"

"I'm feeling better now, xie xie" I saw the others snickering how 'it's unfair we don't understand' 'what did she say?' 'thank you' 'you're welcome'.

"Oh your Mandarin is better now Balleli", I nodded.The last time we spoke in mandarin I only knew the basics and my pronunciations were a bit off so I guess it's good news. "How's Chenle been around here?Is he still a headache?", I just laughed at Chenle who frowned at his mom. 

"Pretty much"

"Yah why are you two like this", the two of us, and Renjun just laughed at what he said.While the others just laugh so awkwardly.

"What do you mean I'm doing it again?", I asked the director, my brows knitted. "You're doing your solo scenes again Hyunjae, it didn't work great", "but I have to g--" "You stay behind, the rest of Dream is dismissed", WHAT?It's my birthday can't he show some mercy or something?Like hello dude, I'm tired and I'm planning on celebrating my day with my NCT family.LET ME GO HOME.
