3rd Person's POV
[Text message of the group chat: Exo ft. Hyuuung😍]
Manager-nim👓: Annyeong whoever is reading. Going to tell you guys that we're going to have your comeback, and that includes a lot of practice, and practice needs time. So about time, tell me if Baekhyun had read this, okay? I have talked to the director of his drama about having his death scene, his exit. We don't want distractions on this comeback, so better do what you want until 5 days, because we'll start practicing after that.

"Yes!" Jongdae cheered, jumping on air, happy that their comeback is near. Suho elbowed Chen's upper waist a little hard, sure that someone is not happy like them. "Ouch! What was that for??" Chen asked, eyebrows pointing down by what Suho did. Suho sighed, then pointed Baekhyun with his lips, his face not moving so Baek won't know.

Jongdae furrowed his brows, then pulled a joke at what Suho did. "Kiss? Okay." He said then exaggeratedly purse his lips and lean to Suho. Junmyeon quickly lean away and hit Jongdae's shoulder. "Gross!.. Jongdae, I said..." Junmyeon hold Jongdae's face and tilt it to Baekhyun's direction.

Stupid Chen finally get it, then he grinned. "Speaking of kiss hehe-... Oh my god, right! Baekhyun is not-" Chen got it seriously, and before he could broadcast, Sehun got a hold of his mouth. Junmyeon just shook his head at Jongdae's brainlessness.

Minseok holds Baekhyun's shoulder, gaining his attention. "If I were you, I better get moving. But it's still on you. Tsk tsk, five days." He adviced, it is an advice. Baekhyun grinned but it didn't look happy. "I-It's not like... we're not gonna see each other after the drama, right?" He said, sincere.

Then his eyes went wide realizing what he said. Minseok smirked, getting the meaning of what  Baekhyun said. "If you want to see her, even after the drama... move. Or let coincidence make the way." Xiumin said and Baekhyun is puzzled. "But coincidence can take a long time... or never." Minseok added, and with a pat on Baekhyun's shoulder, he walk to the stairs and to his room.

Then Baekhyun sighed. 'Five days...' He thought the span of time that he'll be with her. Is that why he's sad? 'Five days with her...' He cleared then his hands went up his hair. "In five days how can I..? Aish!" He exclamed, his grip on his hair tightened.

"How can you... what?" His uninvited listener, Sehun asked, making Baekhyun look at him. Baekhyun's face shows frustration and regret; Regretful that he didn't make his feelings clear until now, and frustrated that he thinks he'll not do it, that they'll not make it. Sehun had his eyes wide at Baekhyun's expression, so he just shut up.

Then a hand went on Baekhyun's shoulder from their leader. Baekhyun look at Junmyeon. "Just do it." Suho said seriously. Then they heard Chanyeol's laugh, who is still playing the Xbox  and has no idea of what's going on. "Sorry hyung, but I'm loyal to Adidas." He said and Jongdae snorted at Chanyeol's not-even-a-joke statement.

"Do it?" Baekhyun asked no one in particular but himself, then he lay his back on the backrest of his seat on his car, mind busy understanding his heart. He sighed and his hand gripped the steering wheel tighter, putting the pressure of his life there. "Or stop it?" He asked and gulped at what he's asking himself. He press his foot on the break, throwing himself a little at the sudden stop.

It was about five seconds of not speaking, him panting is the only sound in the car. "But it just started... and I just realized what it is." He reminded himself, and then closed his eyes tightly, before shouting the hell of his problem.
