1 Episode 1 - This Is Us
Chanyeol woke up to see his phone vibrating in his side table. He attempted to grab the phone as he was tangled in his blankets. Chanyeol had failed as he fell on the floor while sliding the call to the right to answer the phone.
THUD!
"Hello!?" A familiar voice called worriedly, "Chanyeol! Are you okay!?"
"Huh, who is this?" Chanyeol asked groggy, still needing time to wake up.
"It's Kai pabo," The boy on the other end of the line implied, "Are you okay?"
"Yeah I'm fine," Chanyeol replied, "Why are you calling me at 8:00 in the morning?"
"I need to see your notes for music," Kai implied, "Mine got stolen from Sehun again."
"You need to learn to stand up to him and his idiotic friends," Chanyeol implied, "But yeah, you can borrow my notes."
"Ready for the first day of College tomorrow?" Kai asked. Chanyeol layed on the floor groaning.
"Did you forget to pack?" Kai questioned, chuckling.
"Yeah," Chanyeol replied, "I thought we didn't start a few days from now."
"How about I come over and help you?" Kai suggested, "You're worse than my older sister."
"What time you coming over?" Chanyeol asked, "I'd appreciate the help."
"I'll come sometime around 10:00," Kai replied, "I'll see you soon."
"Bye."
"Annyeong!"
Chanyeol hung up and got out from the tangled mess he was in and placed his phone on his side table. He stood by his door and sighed. He had to clean if Kai was coming over. He grabbed his Bluetooth speaker and placed it in the bathroom, connecting his phone with it. He looked through his Spotify and started listening to Emeniem, Green Day, and a few Kpop Groups he liked.
He was into Rap the most, but the occasional Punk / Pop / Alternative Rock never bothered him. He started getting ready first by taking a shower. He closed and locked his bathroom door, stripping down and throwing his clothes into the hamper.
Chanyeol got into the shower, doing what he needed to do, singing and rapping the lyrics to whatever song came on. Once he finished he did his hair, getting ready and cleaned his bathroom, leaving out what he needed. He exits the bathroom, getting dressed into his casual tank top or band shirt with a sweater, ripped skinny jeans, and Converse.
As Blood Sweat & Tears by BTS started to play, Chanyeol started dancing the cheography a little while getting ready. He untangled his blankets and made his bed. He picked up all the items off the floor, putting them in their proper places. As he finished he did his hair and turned his music off, looking at the time. It was 9:45. Chanyeol smiled to himself as he sat on his bed, scrolling through his Instagram, and waiting for Kai.

Kai was getting dressed after he had ended his call with Chanyeol. He put on an oversized sweater with a pair of skinny jeans and Nikes. He grabbed his phone, earphones, and heads outside. He gets onto his bike and cycled to Chanyeol's house. As Kai reached his neighbourhood, he felt something hit the back of his head. He frowned to himself and only cycled faster. He hated the fact he was bullied by Sehun's idiot friends. And by Sehun himself occasionally, which bothered him the most.
He just kept cycling, ignoring them and pulled into Chanyeol's driveway, hiding his bike in the locked shed. Kai went up to his door and knocked.
--
Chanyeol heard a knock on the door and got up and went downstairs. He unlocked the door and opened it to see Kai. Chanyeol let him inside and closed the door behind him.
"What's up?" Chanyeol asked.
"Nothing much," Kai replied, "Besides the usual small things that happen when I come here."
"Yah, just ignore them," Chanyeol encouraged, "C'mon, let's go pack. Did you finish?" The two started walking upstairs to Chanyeol's room.
"Yeah," Kai replied, "I finished last week."
"Ah, I see," Chanyeol muttered.
The two started packing up Chanyeol's stuff into different boxes. They put the boxes in the car smiling at each other.
"I heard Sehun's going to that college," Chanyeol implied.
"NO!" Kai shouted, "WHY HIM!?"
"Learn to deal with it," Chanyeol implied, "I also heard from one of his friends a boy who they also bully is going there. I gotta feel bad for him. You'll two would be great friends."
"Thanks Channie," Kai muttered smiling up at him. Chanyeol smiled back.

In the small city of Bucheon, Baekhyun was at home playing video games as he had finished packing his stuff for college. He sighed as he was getting bored. He turned off his system and went downstairs to put his shoes on. Baekhyun grabbed his phone and face mask. He puts on his face mask, slipping his phone into his pocket, grabbing his bag, and walked out the door.
Baekhyun headed to the Park Café and walked inside. He smiled, ordering himself a cup of coffee. He sat at one of the tables, waiting to be served. Baekhyun went on his phone texting his older brother out of boredom.
Hey!
Hello Baekhyun.
How are you?
I'm good.
That's good Baek!
What are you doing now?
Aren't you supposed to be packing?
I finished this morning Baekbeom!
Omma told you to finish last week!
Yeah yeah, I know.
I'm at the Park Café.
I'm bored
Want me to come and join you?
I'm almost done work
Sure!
I'd love to see you before I leave tomorrow
Haha, alright! 😂
I'll see you soon.
Love you
Bye!
Love you too!
Bye!
Baekhyun put his phone on the table and sighed and the waiter gave him his coffee.
"Thank you," Baekhyun thanked the waitress. She nods and bows a little before walking off to serve someone else. Baekhyun took a sip of his coffee and grabbed the college pamphlet and booklet out of his bag. He looked through it, looking at all the courses he could take and clubs he could join.
As he was reading he heard someone sit across from him. He looked up to see his brother.
"So, which courses are you taking Baek?" Baekbeom asked.
"Anything fun," Baekhyun replied.
"Ah you're so immature," Baekbeom remarked, "You should find something you like before tomorrow."
"I know," Baekhyun muttered, "I just don't know what to do though."
Baekbeom put a hand on his younger brother's shoulder, looking at him.
"You'll find something," He assured, "I can tell you that." Baekhyun nodded smiling at his older brother.
He took his phone out and Baekbeom sat beside him as the two take a selfie together.
"I'll text you tomorrow, okay?" Baekbeom implied, "Love you, bye!" He got up and waved at Baekhyun before leaving the Park Café.
Baekhyun sighed and looked out the window. He noticed it was getting dark out and started packing up his bag. He payed for his coffee and walked out the door, walking back home.
As Baekhyun was walking home from the Café, he looked around while walking down the sidewalk. He smiled seeing how the lights illuminated the small city streets of Bucheon. He walked down the street that lead him to his neighbourhood and walked home. He went into his room, getting undressed and into his bed. Once he did, he fell asleep.
--
Back in Seoul, in the Jungnang district, Sehun had just gotten home, his older brother nagging him to finish packing. He went to his room, packing his things and quickly headed off to bed, falling off his bed curled up in his blankets. Even if Sehun was an a** sometimes, he was still exteremly cute while sleeping.
--
In Daejeon, Chen was finishing his packing, his older brother kissing him on the head before heading to sleep. Chen took his glasses off, putting them on his side table and went to sleep.
