Exo Experience

Training

"Minseok baby" my mom answered the phone.

"Hi ma" I smiled.

"You haven't talked to me much since you moved to Korea to start filming" she sighed.

"I'm sorry ma, it's just really hard to get used to" I apologized.

"I hear you start training today" I could hear her disappointment that I didn't tell her.

"Yeah, I'm sorry I didn't tell you it's just it never really came up" I sighed.

"Well you can tell me now" she said hopeful. I looked at the clock and saw I had time. I always wake up 30 minutes before I actually need to in case obstacles occur.

"Well, basically we're gonna be shooting videos soon and there will be a lot of dancing, really complex moves, and we need to get our stamina flexibility and strength up" I explained.

"You were always strong" she giggled.

"I know ma" I rolled my eyes smiling.

"But I don't really understand the premise of your show" she continued uneasy.

"Really? I thought Lily would have told you everything" I chuckled.

"Well she didn't so you tell me, and don't skip anything" she sounded eager.

"Well basically its a show revolving around a boy band, a korean boy band-"

"Isn't your show on Netflix" she asked confused? I'm guessing she's confused that Netflix will be producing a korean show.

"Yeah, Mr. Qin told me that Netflix sees a rise in kpop and they think it's good business. But basically Netflix thinks the show will benefit them a lot. But the show is kind of -"

"I'm sorry I can't hold this in any longer, I really just want to know how you're doing..."

"I'm doing fine ma" I chuckled. She's such a worry wot.

"I mean how you're doing working with Sehun" she asked slowly? That question kind of made me uneasy. I leaned off my counter and stood up straight. I was silent thinking of an answer. Say 'it's fine', then she would say 'what is it I'm talking about you.' What is an answer that she would accept? The truth is the only answer that she would accept. I scoffed at the thought of having to tell her the truth.

"What is it baby" she commented?

"I gotta go, running late" I quickly hung up. I quickly grabbed my heavy bag and started out the door.

I came early no other members were there but I was directed to a dance room where I was instructed to warm up, then stretch. Last night they all set their alarms so I have no doubt they'll be on time. I dropped my bag in the corner and took off my sweater. I decided to do jumping jacks because it seems easy. Soon after I heard the door open and the same voice give the same instructions. I could see through the mirror that it was Chanyeol.

"Morning" he smugly said before throwing his bag in the corner with mine.

"Morning" I continued.

"You're actually warming up" he chuckled strolling over to me.

"She said to so I am" I eyed him through the mirror.

"Yeah but then you're gonna have to warm up all over again when our trainer comes in" he sat down beside me. I slowed down thinking over what he said. He's actually right, but I don't wanna have nothing to do and then it ends up being awkward.

"You know you weren't the first to come here" he kept talking.

"Then who was" I slowed down some more?
