to that place in time

Description

A couple of years after Shinee’s disbandment, Taemin joins the army and leaves his girlfriend, Jinri. He decides to live his life alone, unable to face his problems, but soon realizes running away only brings you back to where you started.

Foreword

Three years have passed since I last saw her. Five years have passed since Shinee disbanded. Two years have passed since I joined the army. And as the days go by, I can’t forget that so much has changed, so much has altered and the little boy who had first trembled his way into SM Entertainment, is no more.

════════════════════════════════════════════════════

A/N: A couple of days ago, I was asked by AuthorZ if I was willing to write a story for Taemin's a birthday and I said why not? So here it is: my first one-shot, which once again follows Taemin and Sulli, but compared to my other fic, this one is much more Taemin-oriented. With that said, I would like to dedicate this story to the birthday boy himself, Shinee's beautiful maknae who turns 20 today (22 in Korean age). It seems like it was just yesterday when I fell in love with his mushroom haircut and now he's all grown up, with a driver's liscense, cool ear piercings and a wife to boot on WGM. I wish Taemin all the success in the future and I want to let him know that I will always support him, no matter what he does to his hair (^∇^), who he loves (Sulli ｡◕‿◕｡) and however he chooses to live his life. I can't wait to see what the unpredictable maknae does next :) Once again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY OPPA!

Chapter 2: It was a simple story, but the complexity within the simplicity was stunning. The entire idea of running away from a reality that had loomed over them for the years. I could really imagine it, the sort of repression that Sulli and Taemin had kept over the years. They were suppressed not just by others, but by themselves, the selves that reached towards the oblivion of prospects in the entertainment industry, only to feel fed up and exhausted. But perhaps, it comes to the point in all our lives, that critical ultimatum where we choose to live our lives the way we want or the way society wants us to - Taemin and Sulli chose the former, but I'm excited to see how their future pans out with their choices. Beautiful piece of work, darl. You're such a talented writer.

This was honestly so so good. As I did mention to you, I don't usually read Taelli fics. But this beautiful storyline is meant to be read; regardless of the pairing. ♡

Chapter 1: Oh gosh this is so adorable and heart breaking and cute at the same time. I cried when Taemin was leaving her but then I was so happy when he came back for Jinri and their baby ;u; AND THE PROPOSAL AT THE END OH GOD MY TEARS IT'S TOO MUCH.

I absolutely loved it when Jonghyun had said 'the pupil has become the teacher' because oh god my Shinee feels just burst out of nowhere and it made me feel so proud of Taem really just added fuel to the feels. This was really well written as well, you take such care with your words, Sera, and this was absolutely beautiful ;u;

I honestly let a few tears fall down nearing the end of the story.
It's so beautiful. His proposal is above all, genuine. <3
