When I Leave | EXO

(4) At least I hoped

"It's A-MAIZE-ING." I quoted the movie, Grown Ups, while shoving a cookie into my mouth.

Xiumin and Kai looked at us with the up most shock. Kai shook his head in disbelief, "You guys are freaks."

"But you love us." Hajae reminded them, smiling before chewing on a gummy bear.

"You both changed a lot, but yes, we love you." Kai laughed, a grin plastered on his face.

I remembered that Minseok and Jongin had left us for over a year, and I suddenly became upset. Just the thought made me want to ring their throats, the way they ditched us so quickly like that. I always thought they cared for us, at least Xiumin, but they completely abandoned us. Then again, they did come back.

My phone vibrated in my lap. Without anyone's consent, I checked and saw I had gotten a text from Tao.

*From Tao:
When you get to Seoul, find me so we can get married and love happily ever after like every movie ever.

I smiled to myself and laughed at his idiocy. He was so childish and dumb.

This boy was gonna be the death of me.

*To Tao:
I won't marry you, but I'll find you.

That wasn't a lie either. I wanted to meet him. Tao made me very happy over the time Xiumin had left. I needed to know who he was. Was he tall, short, cute, sexy, unattractive, fit, chubby? I'd still be his friend if he wasn't good looking. But I know his personality. He's afraid of everything, and he's sassy and funny. He's the guy version of me.

And who knows, if we meet, we could fall in love or something. Most likely not, but you never know.

*From Tao:
You're breaking my heart, Hyo-hoe. You will be mine! XD

*To Tao:
Whatever floats your canoe.

This boy... he was a special one.

*From Tao:
Hurry up and get here so I can kidnap you!

*To Tao:
I won't tell you when I'm coming to Seoul, but I'll start packing.

*From Tao:
Yay! Goodbye!

I locked my phone and put it in my pocket at the same time that I stood up. Everyone turned from the movie to look at me.

"What are you doing?" Kai asked, shoving a handful of smarties into his mouth.

"I'm gonna start packing. I need to find someone in Seoul, so I wanna be ready early." I explained, trying to escape them quickly.

Xiumin stood up after me, "Who do you know in-"

"A friend." I glared at him, shoving past to go upstairs to my room and get my stuff. Suddenly, I was very upset with him.

Yet, Minseok followed me anyway. He knew I was ticked off, and he followed.

I made it to my room and I tried to slam my door in his face, but he blocked it from closing. I signed out of annoyance and continued on, getting bags out to put my clothes in.

"JinJin, why are you acting so cold toward me?" He asked from the doorway, leaning into the wall.

I looked up briefly, confused as to if he actually asked that question. "Are you being serious?"

He nodded with a dead serious look smacked on his face.

"You realize that you abandoned us, right? Or are you as stupid as I thought?"

He blinked out of disbelief, "You think I'm stupid? Because I don't know what I did wrong?"

I smacked my own forehead with my palm and looked at him.
