The next day, we were up early to sign my contract with SM. I didn't get to eat breakfast so I just grabbed 2 bags of dried mangoes and took it with me. I feel like an artist but I guess I could say I'm one of those people who make the fans happy except I'm behind the curtains. I was so happy when they gave conditions on the contract. Besides getting paid, I get to tour with them until their concert in Philippines. It would just be for a month but it will be amazing, right? Today is actually already my first day. I will be going to Inkigayo to meet them. I was tasked to teach them when they have free time which means during waiting time, I could teach them what they want to know for their concert. It's going to be easy since they won't need to talk so much when the concert comes. I just need to teach them some basic words and maybe a song they want to know. They said it was okay for me to start tomorrow but I said I could do it today. Also, I can't deny the fact that I've been obsessing with Got7 lately especially Jackson and I know he's in Inkigayo. I'm hoping I get to see him today. Who knows?

An SM car brought me to the building and the manager of Exo was waiting in the lobby. After getting the necessary passes, he escorted me right away to their waiting room. I wasn't nervous at all because I know most of them already. Today, they're going to have a comeback stage with their Christmas songs. I'm so excited because I loved their first Christmas album and I'm also in love with their new one. Actually, I'm in love with Exo albums in general.

"Eilee!" Chanyeol-oppa immediately says as I walk in the room. Everyone was busy but they all turned to look at me then proceeded to what they were doing. Most of them were getting their make-ups done and some are putting on accessories for their performance. I see Kai sitting on a couch, playing with his phone. I didn't notice him look at me when I arrive so I don't know if he knows that I was going to be here.

"Annyeonghaseyo" I bow.

Their manager turned to me. "They're all getting ready so maybe you could just find a member who's done and you can have one-on-one tutoring with him." I nod as I turn to see if anyone else besides Jongin was free but no one was so I sat next to him.

"Hey." I say as I check out what he was doing. He was playing Superstar SM and was really concentrated. He looked so adorable.

"Wait. Let me finish this." He says quickly.

When he was done, he locked his phone and turned to me. "What's up?" I ask him.

He smiles, "I'm glad you're here. I'm less nervous now."

I look at him weirdly. "You... get... nervous? Are you serious? You always look so..." I stop to think the proper word. What is he on stage? Confident? Electrifying? Amazing? I don't even know how to describe it.

He nods. "Ne. But I just love what I do so that's it."

"That's nice." I tell him. "Uhm... Jongin..." I start. "If you happen to see Jackson of Got7 around, can you please call me? I like him recently and I want to meet him."

He raises an eyebrow, probably judging me. "Who do you like more? Me or Jackson?" He asks playfully.

I don't answer him but instead I say, "So you want to learn Filipino words now?"

His face changes as if trying to think but just as he was about to talk, he was called by one of their make-up artists.

"After I'm done, okay? And you haven't answered my question." He says as he stands up and walks towards the chair where the make-up artist was telling him to sit down. Chanyeol was the one who just got done so he walked towards me.
