I Did A Thing

Symptoms: Restorative
Please Subscribe to read the full chapter

So, I have finally decided to make this into one consecutive story.

It is entitled:

I'll Tell You A Story

Amita is new to the stages of being a teenager. She wants to be considered mature and have more freedom. She especially doesn't want to be like her grandmother who seemed to always be busy caring for her grandpa without relaxing. She even wanted a boyfriend, but she made it known that she wouldn't get one if it meant struggling the way her grandmother did. So, while spending the summer at her grandparent's home, her grandmother decides to teach her a valuable lesson, by telling her a story.

If you are interested in reading you can do so by going to Kindle Vella.

If you just want to support, you can do that by thumbing up the end of the chapters. That would be greatly appreciated!

The first three chapters are available to anyone who wants to give this version of the story a chance. It does give you an answer to how our two main characters fared with each other after the end of Symptoms: Restorative.

This version of the story, Symptoms: Significantly, and Symptoms will remain private since I am updating onto Vella the complete story with all of them melded together and told in a different way.

I hope to see some of you over there and I hope those who do read this new version will enjoy it!

Thank you for your initial support of this story!

Chapter 5: Wow, I finished this chapter too fast, and yet I am so happy I finally finished it! I read the first two Symptoms story probably right after they were done, but I never got the chance to read this one until now. I am so glad I did, bc I always wondered what happened to Tazzer and Jongdae after Symptoms: Significantly and I would've missed out on a lot.

Reading the 'The End' at the end brought a smile to my face while making me want to burst into tears at the same time, but bc it was a happy ending, I'm thankfully smiling as I write this comment. I'm sure there will be more valleys to go through for them, but as Suho said, I believe it'll get less steep as time passes, as Jongdae improves. The proof of this is in the last two paragraphs where Jongdae laughed at his circumstance for the first time. I thought that maybe that was the answer to all this. Just simply take in the circumstances and maybe even laugh about it. Bc in the end, it's not about the what if's and whether all this will eventually change or not, it's how you go through the process. Jongdae is incredibly lucky to have loving friends and family by his side, so I believe he'll be able to cope well and his situation will definitely get better.

Long comment short, I loved this story and I fell in love with every single one of the characters. Even if this is fiction, I'll always be rooting for all of the Jongdae's, Tazzer's, and Suho's (and Kris's) in the real world with all their problems. Your story displays raw hope that even in the worst situation, there's always a light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you so much for a great read <3

Chapter 4: I'm just going on a marathon of reading this story and writing comments after I finish each chapter, and I'm loving every bit of the journey.

I have to say, I am so so glad Jongdae came to terms with the fact that Tazzer loves him and will never leave him and have the hope that they'll eventually have the relationship he wants, no matter how long it takes. He felt miserable about himself bc he couldn't take care of Tazzer like a "man" but who says the man always has to take care of the woman? In a relationship of love, I believe the stronger one takes care of the weaker one (whether they are male or female), and the roles can switch in every situation. Also there are times when the stronger one gains strength from the weaker one to move forward. Eventually they really are taking care of each other, and I am so happy to see these two take a step forward in the more positive way.

Also, if Tazzer doesn't want Suho, then I'll be more than happy to take him hehe.

Chapter 3: As I read this chapter and the comments that you pasted below, a thought came to me. The thought that whatever choice Tazzer makes, you can't really say what's wrong and what's right. Whether she chooses to stay with Jongdae or not, you can't put it on a scale and weigh whether it's the right decision or not. It's true that the progress of his recovery and probably the future progress he'll make is dependant on whether Tazzer is present at his side or not, but it's also very true that Tazzer has the right to live however she wants. If she decides to leave him, I don't think anyone has the right to condemn her, especially after knowing how much she's done for him the last 4 years.

However, everything changes when love comes in the picture. Sure you have the right to live the way you want, but sometimes when you love someone, that love can overcome that right. Love can cause you to give up that right and "sacrifice" your life to be with them. Because true love is not self-seeking. I think Tazzer's love for Jongdae overcame that 'right to live freely.' And although Jongdae is anguished with the thoughts and feelings in the above chapter bc he loves Tazzer as well, I guess he just needs to acknowledge the fact that sometimes choosing to love someone involves pain and hardships. Yet why do people go through that voluntarily? Bc they love each other. The answer can be and is as simple as that.

For starters, this was just, really really really amaizng.

The way you've drawn out each scene and each of the characters journey, especially that of Tazzer's, is so beautiful that I can't even properly put it into words. One of the things that really had me captivated was the constant switch between Jongdae's toddler and 22 year old personality and I daresay that was pretty much what kept me on my edge. Tazzer too, along with Jongdae, had a journey of ups and downs, and she too was in the process of learning throughout the span of 5 years.(by now you can probably figure out that I was really immersed in the storyline cuz I feel like I'm sounding so damn serious) From being slightly uncomfortable with how Toddler-Dae had no clue about personal space, do things himself and other what-nots, to growing to adore him and finding different tricks to turn things in her favour, to slowly awakening and pulling out the real, 22 year old, mature yet still sassy Jongdae, her journey has been exceedingly tedious and I can say without a doubt that in case anyone is planning to set up a mini 'Choi Tazzer Fanclub: a thousand reasons to love her' club, I will bunk all of my science classes just to be the first one to sign up. :)

Summed up, I most definitely LOVE your masterpiece and I'll be sure to reunite in another long comment left in another one of your stories cuz I have decided to rake through (hopefully, if I get enough time) every one of them!

Chapter 5: I can certainly say this story was one of the best I've ever read. Actually I think it was the BEST. I am completely amazed at how beautifully you wrote this story. It would be amazing if it would have been published into a book. Because that is what this story and you deserve. You're a gem of a writer. Thank you so much for writing this.
