The hotel is luxurious. The lobby is huge. The place seems old, at least for the hall.
But at the same time very modern, it contrasts, beautiful nuances of colors and materials. A pleasure for the eyes.
That's not my first time here. I have my little habits. And a good friend of mine, Mary, has an important job here.
With the members, I head for the stairs and meet my friend Mary.
- Hey Mary! How are you?, I greet her warmly.
The members bow to greet her.
- Nice to see you again Ilona. Always as busy running everywhere, as usual, she says ironically
- And you must be the band staying on the 3rd floor?, she adds (in English) turning to them.
- That's right, confirms Jooheon
- I hope you like the hotel.
- It's amazing and the rooms are perfect, says Hyungwon.
- Nice that the hotel and the rooms please you, she says delightedly.
Mary looks down at her watch and then to the band.
- I'm sorry, the staff needs me. I was happy to meet you. It was an immense pleasure. And take good care of Ilona, she says.
- We promise you, Changkyun answers with his eyes full of sincerity.
- Perfect, she concludes and then moves away.
Members bow. Once Mary is gone, we are heading to the elevators. Inside, to my right, I have Shownu and my left Hyungwon. I turn my head towards him and notice how tall he is.
- I feel very small between Hyungwon and Shownu, I laugh.
They look at me laughing.
- But we're not that tall, replies Hyungwon.
- You're 1m81 tall and I'm 1m70 tall, it's not the same. There is a difference, I say ironically.
- She's not wrong, Changkyun adds teasing me and smiling broadly.
- Hey uh ...! I retorted looking falsely offended.
- Otherwise, how did you spread the rooms?, I asked to change the subject.
- So, we are divided into 3 rooms, explains Jooheon. First room: Shownu-hyung and Wonho-hyung. Second room: Me and Hyungwon-hyung. Third and last chamber: Minhyuk-hyung / Kihyun-hyung and Changkyun-shi.
- Do you still divide like that or do you change?
- We're like that for this tour, but in each tour, we change, says Minhyuk.
Suddenly Hyungwon says without warning:
- Selca! (Selfie)
We are all getting closer to him. Everyone takes the pose. I don't know the reason, but when I look at the screen, my eyes are directly on Changkyun ...
Hyungwon counts down and then takes the picture . The picture is taken, he shows it to us. Miracle! Everyone looks good! Or rather, nobody is ugly!
- Ha! Finally a perfect picture! We won't have to take it again, says Minhyuk, laughing.
Everyone agrees.
- It's probably thanks to Ilona, says Changkyun so softly that I think I was the only one to have heard.
I look at him and smile in an accomplice way. He also smiles at me in the same way.
We heard the little melody of the elevator. We go out one by one.
- In which room are we going to?, I ask.
- It's better to go in the cleanest room, right?, Wonho suggests.
- So ours, in, said Changkyun as if it were obvious.
- Go for your room, Shownu replies. Also, there is much more place to sit on the beds.
We are heading to the 3rd bedroom. Kihyun opens the door like a true gentleman, I thank him, bowing and entering the room. Indeed, the room is very tidy. I am impressed.
- Wow! The room is much tidier than I imagined, I confess.
- Thank you, says Minhyuk.
- Go sit on the beds, let us Kihyun
In the bedroom, there's a large double bed and at the end a single bed. We sit and "make" 2 teams:
- We could say 2 teams based on where we sited, I suggest.
- Good idea Ilona, confirms Kihyun.
- Thanks hyung, I reply.
- So the First team is Me, Jooheon-shi, Changkyun-shi, and Hyungwon-shi, he says. And the Second team is Ilona-shi, Minhyuk-hyung, Wonho-hyung, and Shownu-hyung.
So Hyungwon is next to Shownu on the single bed. Changkyun in front of Wonho, Jooheon in front of Minhyuk and Kihyun in front of me.
- Hyungwon and Shownu, the excluded!, Minhyuk laughs.
- It's okay? Not too lonely ?, Wonho asks the two singers.
- No, that's fine, Hyungwon replies.
- Otherwise, someone wants something to drink or eat, Shownu offers to change the subject.
- I'd like a Sprite, please, I ask.
- One for me too, please hyung, adds Changkyun.
- Same, adds Jooheon.
- A latte for me, says Wonho.
- Surprise me hyung! says Minhyuk.
- And you Kihyun ?, asks Shownu.
- A chocolate chip cookie, please.
- Ok, anything else?, asks Shownu one last time.
We all answer "no". I feel obliged to propose to accompany him.
- You want me to come with you, I suggest as I got up from the bed...
- No, don't worry. Stay with the band. Hyungwon-shi will come with me.
I don't insist and sit down while Hyungwon gets up and leaves the room with Shownu.
- We have less than two hours if we want to be back for the concert before 7 pm, I inform them of looking at my Rosefield's watch.
- It's okay, we've enough time, says Wonho.
- Well, while the guys aren't here, let's talk a little, Minhyuk says. Any Ideas?
- We could start by asking questions, suggests Jooheon. It's basic and childish, but it's a beginning.
The guys are reluctant to answer. I devote myself, therefore
- I'm in. And you guys?
- If Ilona plays, then us too, says Kihyun in the name of the rest of the group.
- Perfect, says Jooheon. And since Ilona you spoke first, you'll start.
- Let's go! I say excitedly.
I have always liked this kind of game and then we can get to know each other better.
- Who asks the first question? Jooheon?, Suggests Wonho.
Jooheon does wait a second.
- Let's start with a childish question ... Ilona ... When we first met, which of us caught your eyes first?
- And of course, answers honestly, adds Minhyuk.
I hesitate a few seconds before answering.
- Changkyun-shi, I reply, looking at him in the eyes.
He seems surprised, almost shocked.
- M ... Me ?!, he tries to articulate pointing to himself, his eyes wide.
- Yes, I confirm. You, Im Changkyun.
- Interesting, Jooheon says, mimicking Sherlock Holmes.
- Next question, I say.
- Your turn Ilona-shi, says Minhyuk.
- Can I add a rule? I ask, addressing to the "master of the game."
- Of course!
- Now we're going to ask group questions and to answer it, we'll have to point at the person who best fits the question.
- Great idea !, says Kihyun.
- Thank you, I reply with a broad smile.
- I start?, Offers Wonho.
- Go ahead, says Minhyuk.
So they apply my new rule.
- Who cooks the worst?
All point to Jooheon. I decide to do "white vote".
- Nobody is really bad at cooking. It's just that Jooheon has the lowest rank among the seven members of the group, explain Minhyuk.
- My level is not that bad, says Jooheon for his defense.
- Seriously ?! The last time you tried to cook, you dropped the salt shaker into the pan, corrects Wonho laughing.
- It slipped my hands, he defends himself.
His reaction makes me laugh so much.
- I see, I say between two laughs. And who is the best cook?
Jooheon, Kihyun, and Minhyuk designate Changkyun. Wonho and Changkyun designate Minhyuk.
- So the two best cooks are Changkyun-shi and Minhyuk-hyung, I sum up
- Absolutely, confirms Minhyuk. Even though Changkyun cooks far better than me.
- You cook the best, corrects Changkyun.
- Your kitchen is absolutely delicious, Changkyun-shi, says Wonho.
- Thank you hyung, I appreciate, says Changkyun sincerely.
- What about you, Ilona?, Kihyun asks me.
- I must admit I'm not a bad cook.
- Do not underestimate yourself. I'm sure you're a really good cook, says Changkyun with a sincere and comforting smile.
- Thank you Changkyun-shi. You're too sweet, I thanks him with a loving smile.
- That's the truth, he adds.
- Can't wait to taste your food, says Jooheon.
- And me to taste yours. Especially yours Jooheon-hyung, I say.
Kihyun is about to ask a question when Shownu and Hyungwon come back and give us what they have bought.
- Ha! Finally, exclaims Wonho.
Shownu and Hyungwon sit on the bed and I explain to them what we were doing and the rule I added to the game. And the game continues.
