Description

They said some people aren't going to stay forever. Some people aren't your whole story. Some people are just meant to be a chapter in your life. And indeed, these people are chapters in my life. While I may never be able to be there for their whole story, I am thankful that we were parts of each other's stories, be it a chapter, a page or a single line. These are our stories, before we get there. 

Foreword

..I always liked the word 'Sonder'..

..as in the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own..

..because it reminds me that the world isn't only about me..

..and that I am not alone in this crazy journey we call life..

..and I am not lonely in trying to find love..

..For I never believed that anyone is just a passerby in my life..

..and we were meant to swap stories..

..to learn from each other, to grow with each other..

..we laugh and celebrate together with selfless joy..

..and we cry and comfort one another in soothing tears..

..So this isn't my story..

..Nope this is about him and about them..

..this is about that person whom I had the chance to cross paths with..

..this is about that friend and the conversations I can never forget..

..this about us..

..learning to love ourselves..

..this is about them..

..learning to love someone else..

..Because everyone wants to be happy..

..In the end, everyone chase after that happiness with a child-like heart..

 ..No matter how many times we fall we stumble, we get up again..

..we don't stop and we can't seem to stop..

..so these are the stories..

..before we get there..

 


Author's Notes:

This story is a collection of the narrator's understanding of the stories of these boys she crossed paths with.

The chapters may or may not be connected, the characters may or may not be interlinked. I guess, you may even choose not to read them in sequence.

So essentially they are a series of one-shots, and hence will always be marked as 'completed'.

I wanted these one-shots to be very real and relatable, and I hope these stories can easily be of someone close to you, or that they might even be yours. 

If you like what you read, please comment & upvote, for that is always appreciated :)

And do share me, if any chapter reminds you of a person, a memory, a story or even a song. I would loved to know.

If you want to read more, please subscribe as the new chapters will be added only when my muse visits.

I will drop by once a while but I will be more active at my long on-going stories. 

Thank you again for reading. You are loved <3

Chapter 3: When Jongdae talked about the dolphins’ tears, it reminded me of a certain scene from Aquaman. His mother had to return back to the ocean and she cried, she said “ in the ocean, when we cry it washes away our tears” and his father responded “ yes, here we feel our tears.” T___T

Chapter 4: Things always feels different if you're the one who write it. Baekhyun's story is supposed to be heartbreaking, but with those heartwarming words of yours, it's different. I'm not good in english, I don't know how to express my feelings and thought properly. Your naration is always beautiful and I love it ~

Chapter 4: Life isn’t always perfect but they both tried and that’s what matters.. even though they couldn’t make it to the end, they have embraced the truth .. poor Baek tho .. hope he finds his end with a good person like Minah did .. TT

I hope people will understand idols life so that they also can live a normal life like us .. fans will be having boyfriends or girlfriends but turn down on their fav idols when they start dating .. it’s sad .. I feel sad for them.. they make us happy with their music so they deserve their own happiness and we as fans should support and let them be happy!

Sorry for the blabbering but this story definitely speaks for the idols who have left their old life for another with fame,

Loved it ❤️

Chapter 4: I have a playlist that would always relate to a person...

Time will tell if I ever find just one song...

Or if the person will ever know.
