Two days after hanging out with Xiumin and Kai, we had our debut. Our song, Expectation, came out, rising quickly in the charts, simply because we we were in SM.

Yesterday, I woke up in sweatpants, without shoes on, but I fell asleep in tigts and a sweater, with my shoes on my feet. I investigated further, and found out that D.O changed my clothes for me when I got home.

We searched all day for Tao yesterday, but there wasn't even a smudge of evidence on where he would've went. I lost hope when I saw Kris crying after we visited the mall and asked around. Right before we called it quits on the search, SM found out that Kris and I were searching and put it on the news that Tao was missing. Surely, the news story would get attention.

I wanted to go out searching again, but Mr. Park told me that we had a ton in our plans to do, since we debuted. Mr. Lee added that it was Exo's responsibility to search for their missing member, so I needed to go back to my own group.

"I miss Tao already." I whispered, Hajae next to me.

I missed the texts we used to send each other back when Hajae and I were still in our old town.

"Why? He was only gone two days. He'll be back, I promise." Hajae reassured, but I still worried.

With everything lately, D.O and I never got to talk seriously like he wanted. Two days later, the only thing we said to each other was about him changing my clothes for me. But surely it could wait. If it was that important, he would've pulled me away from the crowd and talked to me.

"Are you guys ready?" Mr. Park entered our apartment, grinning.

"For what?" Sorae seemed just as oblivious as the rest of us.

"For your debut concerts. You have one in Seoul, one in Busan, one in Icheon-"

"Hold on," Sorae stopped him, "Is this a debut tour?"

He shrugged, "You can call it that, I guess. We just have a few concerts and interviews. Nothing more than one city a day for a week's time."

None of us had any idea this would happen. The guys were in between comebacks right now, so they weren't so busyz, which meant they'd miss us so much.

As if on cue, Kai exited the hallway with D.O by his side, and Chen in tow. Chanyeol walked out of his room then, all of the boys filing into the living room to ruin the moment of discovery.
