You Who Came From The Exoplanet

Let Me Show You The Move Pt.2

Today we practice dancing. As I am the main dancer of our group, I have to help my members a lot in some complicated steps. Sehun assists me too in helping others improve their dancing skill, but he has his personal schedule today. I will be on my own. We warm up by doing some stretching, backpedaling, and arm circles. It is until 15 minutes after the warm up that we begin to practice dancing.

"Hyungs, so today we are gonna practice dancing the chorus part."

"Let's do this." Chanyeol shouts, which is filled with encouragement. Minseok nods, while Kyungsoo just looks at Chanyeol and Minseok, smiling lightly. "Why don't you look at me?," my mind murmurs.

" So first land both of your legs on the ground, and push your body upward with your right hand. Your left hand shouldn't touch the ground." I do what I've just said slowly so that my members can follow me, while checking myself and them in the mirror. They did great, so I just continue.

"Now this is a hardest part hyungs. With your current position, twist your body to the left side quickly with that position. Like this." I demonstrate the move to my hyungs.

"After the twist, land your body with your right hand again. Don't fall." I do it again. Turning around, I see that both Minseok's and Chanyeol's jaws drop, while Kyungsoo's doe-like eyes become larger.

"Ok one more time. Watch closely hyungs."

"Woww no way we can do that," Chanyeol exclaims. He puts his right hand on the ground, then does the twisting body move. There is a gentle crack sound. He lands on the ground, then just lies there looking at us, laughing miserably. We burst out of laughing.

"What are you doing??!. After the twist you have to land with your right arm again Chanyeol." Minseok whines.

"No this is impossible. I am a bad dancer. I'm just a rapper you know. Do we all have to do this?" Chan-yeol cries, and shakes his hands and legs like a child. A giant child.

"Yes, just try slowly one more time hyung." I pat Chan-yeol shoulders.

"What do you mean do it slowly? If we do it slowly we'll fall immediately onto the ground, which is not supposed to be like that." Chanyeol bursts into a louder laugh, hugging his belly. Kyungsoo looks at me briefly, then laughs at my stupidity. He tilts his head backward, while his shoulders shrug.

"Look at me Jong-in. I can do it." My focus shifts to Minseok. Minseok shows the move in front of us, and he nails it.

"Woaaa Minseokie you're so so great. Urhggg I have to do it." Chanyeol is so determined.

"Kyung-soo ahhh, are you having troubles? Show it to hyung." Minseok hyung leans on Kyungsoo, who has been just laughing with us silently. I should have asked him too, instead of focusing only on Chanyeol and Minseok. Again, that uncomfort just overwhelms me whenever Kyungsoo is near me. However, feeling guilty, I manage to ask him.

"Ummmm Kyung-soo, let's do it together."

"Oh ok." His eyes grew so large. Indeed, I have never never done anything together with him before. I am also surprised at my courage.

"1,2,3 let's go." Chanyeol shouts.

I look at the mirror to see myself and Kyungsoo. But now Kyungsoo has all my attention, because I need to know which part he cannot do so that I can help him, although I'm sure our interaction would be awkward. I do the first move first, then he follows. He does it smoothly, which I signify him by giving a thumb up. I doubt that he can succeed the second move. Kyungsoo twists his body leftward, but then lands immediately on his left side. He laughs, and I was right.

"Let's do it one more time Kyungsoo." I say. "With my help. Don't worry." Again, I am surprised at what I've just said.

"Kyungsoo fighting." Minseok gives an encouragement.

Kyungsoo succeeds in the first position, but he then hesitates to do the next one. Kyungsoo has all of our focus. Sensing the tension building around him, I lean closer to Kyungsoo, and put my hand under his back.

"This is my help, Kyungsoo," I say. By this way, when he continues to do the move, he won't fall down.

Kyungsoo looks at me briefly, then does the move. He succeeds in it, with my help. The other members clap: "Well done Kyungsoo. You are getting there."

"Now without my help. Do it fast, then end the move with your right hand resting on the ground, instead of your back." I retrieve my hand.

"Hmmm ok." He bites his lips. Even he is under tension, he is still quiet. Kyungsoo takes a deep breath, then twist his body over one side. He almost falls down, but it is not that noticeable. After the swift and smooth twist, he lands on his right arm, and his left leg stretches out as the ending figure.

"Woahhhh Kyungsoo you did it," both Chanyeol and Minseok shouts, offering Kyungsoo a high five right after Kyungsoo stood up. Kyungsoo smiles brightly, in which his full lips form into a cute heart shape.

"Good job Kyungsoo," I pat lightly on his shoulder.

"Thanks! Jongin you are so great. I appreciate it. Teach me more later, ok?" In return, Kyungsoo pats so hard on my shoulder, as if he is slapping it. Perhaps he is excited now.

"Ouch it hurts hyung," I cry. "Yes I have to teach you a lot Kyungsoo," I say jokingly, but inside I am still happy that Kyungsoo finally nails it.

"Gosh, I have to nail this." The frustration inside Chanyeol intensifies. Minseok and Chanyeol go to the corner of the studio to practice the move, leaving Kyungsoo and myself alone. Again, the awkwardness.

"Hmmmm, that was a hard dance part you know," Kyungsoo finally breaks the silence.

"Yeah, I know. I practiced that position a lot you know," I say.

"Ummm Jongin, do you want to eat for dinner today? I need some suggestions," Kyungsoo asks, which surprises me.

"Are you cooking for me?"

"O, Yeah if you want. What do you want Jongin?"

There is still slight awkwardness between us, which I am also trying to break it down little by little now. I'm pretty sure Kyungsoo senses that too.

"Chicken please, I love chicken," I smile happily, looking towards Kyungsoo. Thinking about chicken makes me feel so happy. Kyungsoo smiles too, then says: "Ok chicken then."

"Promise to make chicken for me hyung," I nag.

"Ok ok I know," Kyungsoo punches my arm, and I cry. He just laughs harder at me, then we come to see how Minseok and Chanyeol are doing. Finally, there is a progress in our brotherhood. Kyungsoo is making chickens for me tonight.
