Tao's P.O.V
"What did you has that you've been accepted in this great company, huh, Chinese?"
"I don't think it because of your look."
"I don't think it because of your voice or dance neither."
"Tch, just because of wusyu. WTH."
What did I do to deserve this kind of treatment? What sin did I do in my past life? I'm tired of this. I want to give up. I can't stand this. I want to go back to China. It unfair, I can see one of the chinese trainee here got a very nice treatment. I think his name is Luhan. Maybe because he's cute and has baby face that he get good treatment. Or maybe because of his easy going character? I always envy that one character of him. He has good voice too. Just when I made my mind to give up, an idol come in. A young idol, three years younger than me. She is a very famous idol and I know her as Eun Ri. She always visit us, the trainees and befriend with us. When she come in, the other trainees still bullying me.
"What you guys doing?" she asked.
"Nothing much, sunbaenim," one of them said.
"How many time I said not to call me sunbae. And you said nothing much? I don't think so. Hey newbie, what happen?" she asked me. I can't say anything but crying. I am a crybaby since I was young. I even cry when watching a ghost story.
"Newbie, don't you want to tell me?"
"Of course he'll not. He don't has anything but tears, huh !" one of the trainee say with a harsh tone.
"What is this? Why you bully him? He was scout for a reason. Don't forget it. Don't you guys has anything to do other than bullying him? Why don't you guys practice so that you can debut soon? He's being bully because he got to debut sooner and faster than you guys right? Well he deserve it as I always found him practice alone late at night. What did you guys do? Nothing but bullying and that bring you to nothing. Now, I want you to go to your practice room and start practice," girl's nagging nature always there within them right? Hehe. But wait, she saw me practice? Is it her who recommend me to debut earlier? I knew that she is the one who Lee Soo Man trust the most.
"So newbie, what's your name?" she asked after the other went back to the practice room.
"Huang Zi Tou," I whisper between my sobbing.
"Tao oppa. I can call you that right?"
"Yes, of course you can, sunbaenim,"
"Aish this guy. Call me Eun Ri, OK? Only Eun Ri. Sunbaenim make me sound old. Hehe. ^^"
Wow, she's really low profile and easy going. I thought.
"Oh, nae. Eun Ri. Hehe."
"Want to go to the bubble tea shop with me? Sehun oppa, Luhan oppa and Baekhyun oppa will be there too,"
"Is it OK for me to go together?"
"Of course it OK. You can get to know your soon to be group member after all. Kaja."
"Err, don't you need to disguise or anything?" Yes, that a right question. She's an idol, saesang fans might kill me if they see me with her.
"No need too. Or else they'll think I'm in a relationship. Kaja. Palli. They must be waiting"
That's how I got close to her. And I also make many friends because of her. But within inside me, I know that she make many enemies just because of me. I feel bad about it.

(EXO's debut day)
Tao's P.O.V
"Yeah ! We did it ! We did it !" our leader, Suho shout with happy voice. We are all really happy and can't hide our happiness right after we finished our debut performance with a song called MAMA. Even though the song is split into two language, but during the performance we combine the two language. Oh, our group EXO have twelve member. Six (Suho, Chanyeol, Baekhyun, Kyungsoo, Sehun, Jongin) in EXO-K and the other six (Minseok, Wufan, Luhan, Lay, Chen, me) in EXO-M. EXO-K will do their promotion in Korea while the other is in China. Back to where we were. We are really happy and decided to celebrate it among ourself as a present to ourself. We are all agree to go to the nearby food stall. Well, we are rookies and it will be not a big deal if the public see us.
"Lets bring Eun Ri with us," suggest Chen
"Yes, let bring her together. She is the MVP for our debut," Chanyeol is agree with the suggestion.
"Lets go and meet her in her waiting room," say Kai.
"Lets go !" we all shout in sync. :3
(In Eun Ri's waiting room)
"Yah Eun Ri. You done for tonight?" asked Kai.
"Yeah I am. Waeyo?" she asked in curious.
"Come with us for a while will you?" cold Kris is asking.
"To where?"
Then, without answering her question, Sehun drag her to come with us. She follow with a bit protest but her legs is walking. In force I suppose. Hehe. And the whole journey to our van, she keep nagging and questioning but being ignore. Hehe.
"Jeongmal, where you guys taking me?"
"Are you kidnapping me?"
"Oppa, I know I don't say chukaehae because of your debut but there's no need to kill me,"
Kill her? Yeah right. As if we will. But she got a point there. She still not congratulate us for our debut stage.
"Oppaaaaa"
When will she silent. Well if she silent, she not the Eun Ri we know. Hahaha.
(Inside EXO's van)
"Where we going?" she keep asking.
"You will not stop until you get the answer don't you?" Luhan ask with a sigh.
"You know me. Now tell me,"
"We gonna celebrate our debut stage !!!" shout Lay in excitement.
"Yeah, then why I'm here?"
"Pabo. I don't believe that this pabo is actually the one who change us all and gave as hope," sigh Kyungsoo.
(Eun Ri's P.O.V)
"Pabo. I don't believe that this pabo is actually the one who change us all and gave as hope," sigh Kyungsoo.
Why am I called pabo? Was my question wrong? I don't think so. It's true by the way. Why am I here. Its not like I'm one of EXO's member. Michin. I thought.
"Yeah, chukaehae on your debut. Then why am I with you guys? Its not like I'm one of your group member.What change? What hope?" Well I guess I can't hide my nagging nature. Hehe.
"Ish jeongmal this pabo. Yah, remember when you save me from being bully?" Tao.
"And remember when you comfort me when I was cried because of my singing not good enough?" Baekhyun.
"Remember when I am all alone and no one want to talk to me because of my cold face?" Kris
"Remember when I was a silent guy who don't know how to mix with other trainee? And also when they make fun of my short height and small body?" Kyungsoo.
"Remember when other trainees bad mouthing about me because I've train for years?" Suho.
"Also when we being scold because we can hardly dance?" Chen + Chanyeol.
"Remember when I always has a hard time to learn Korean?" Lay
"Remember when we've been accused as gay just because they jealous two of us get along together very well" Sehun + Luhan
"Remember when I'm always being hurt and bully because of my dance skill?" Kai
"Remember when people laugh and make fun of me because I'm fat?" Xiumin.
"Remember when people make fun of me because of my height and over confidence?" Baekhyun.
How can I forget all of that. That were how I met them. How I grew close to them. How I get to know their real personality instead of their look.
"Yeah, then?" I asked in confusion. They are all have tears in their eyes. It is sad to remember the hard time they've been through. But for me, it not a sad memory. It a good memory where I got chance to meet them. I am really grateful. And now, I also start to tearing because of the gift god gave me.
"We are all here because of you Eun Ri. That were time when we were all about to give up," Xiumin explain. He has the less tears about all along with Kyungsoo. Tao and Luhan has the most tears as I can see. And also Sehun and Suho.
"We were all felt hopeless and about to give up training and forget our dream to become an idol," explain Kyungsoo.
"But then you came, you bring hope to us and spirit to make us practice more and chase our dream," continue Lay.
"We were all can't stand the challenges but you always there with us. Give us hope. With your jokes, advice, your spirit, you are all matter to us as our role to chase after our dream. Without you we will not be here," come on Sehun, no need to talk when you still sobbing. But, I also feel touch. They are all appreciate me as I appreciate them.I has no siblings so I really happy when I met them. They are all like my own brothers to me. They never fail to make my day. During my hard time, my sad time and also my happy time. We has no secret between us and that make our bond become stronger and stronger. We believe each other. I start to cry in Minseok arm. I am very touch.
"Let's not cry on this special day. Lets have fun today !" Suho words bring us to our sense.
"Eun Ri, the main reason why you here is because you are our precious little dongsaeng," say Kai.
Little? Little?! He only two years older than me and he called me little. Tsk.
"You could just ask. No need to kidnap me. And I'm not little," I said and pout my mouth. They laugh.
"Yeah you still little girl to us," Baekhyun join in to tease me.
"Dragging you is more fun then asking you. Hahaha," said Chen.
"Oppa," I whinning.
"Nae uri little dongsaeng?" Chanyeol liften the mood.
"Aish," that is all I can say.
"If you don't want to be little, then should we call you sunbae, that should make you sound old," troll Suho.
"Aigoo, jeongmal these oppa," I said in despair. They are all laughing really hard until we reach our destination.
