When I Leave | EXO

(9) I could've sworn...

When I woke up, I had no idea where I was. After only a moment, it occurred to me that I had fallen asleep in the van, and I was now in my new bedroom.

Checking the time, I found out it was 9:30 in the morning. I crawled out of bed and saw the outfit Hajae bought me was sitting on my dresser. So I picked it up and walked out of my room, into the bathroom.

The bathroom, which I had barely visited since we got the new apartment, was very nice and cozy. The shower was nice, and there was a separate tub as well. The sink was squeaky clean and beautiful.

I set my clothes on top of the counter and started the hot water while I undressed. By the time I was completely naked, the water was ready so I got in and started to shower.

I started with lathering my hair in shampoo. I washed it out and repeated with conditioner, except I left it in to soften my hair while I washed my body.

After washing myself and shaving my legs, I washed away the conditioner. It ran down the drain as I stepped out and dried myself off. My hair was up in the towel, and I got dressed quickly.

As soon as I was dressed completely, I grabbed the hair dryer from under the sink and plugged it in. After removing the towel from my hair and blow drying it for over 10 minutes, my hair was no longer wet, and I had plenty of time to do my hair and makeup before going to the meeting at 3.

But did I want to go to the meeting? It was kind of stressful thinking that I could be part of SM, but it was exciting as well. It could end well, and I could end up being in a really popular group in the end. But things could also go badly.

Ignoring the thought, I went back to my room. In there, I turned on music from my phone and started getting ready.

My door swung open with Hajae in the doorway. "Oh, you're up."

"Yea, I'm up." I repeated.

"Come out as soon as you're done." She told me. It was then that I looked at her outfit, which was a little more professional than mine, but I liked both outfits a lot. "Some of the boys came over to visit before we leave."

I nodded, and she left. After roughly 30 minutes, I finished my hair, which I simply waved and straightened my bangs in front of my forehead. Only 10 minutes after that, I finished my makeup.

I picked up my phone, letting the music continue, which was a Vixx song called, "Rock Ur Body". I left the room with the song still going.

Out in the living room, there was Hajae and Kai, and Xiumin obviously. Along with them was Chen again, Tao, Luhan, and Chanyeol.

With the guys in the apartment again, I felt like I was being watched or something. Pushing the thought aside, I took a seat by Kai on the couch. They were enjoying the news, which I never realized came on at this time.

"Hey, JinJin, isn't this that one girl that tried to kill herself in front of you?" Xiumin's voice rang out.

"Elizabeth?" I let my eyes land on television. He was correct.

"A local American woman, Elizabeth Brents, attempted to kill herself with a store knife just days ago. The woman thrusted a knife into her own wrist while holding her very young infant, Preston. Luckily, a friend of the woman, Sung Hyojin, was there and called to get paramedics to the store before any real damage happened." The news woman explained.

"Whoa, you're the girl with the woman?" Chen asked the obvious, amazed.

I nodded my head while my eyes widened, "I didn't give the interviewer permission to use me in the news."
