Three!

One, Two, Three: Smile!

Captured moment: Three! [Edited]
 



I do not like to see Taemin in a wheelchair, but it was an occasional sight whenever his rheumatism gets the better of him. An ever-present smile would always linger on his lips when he sees me, while I could only fake a smile back, for I know the pain behind that smile.

“How are you feeling?” I would always ask him sincerely.

“Perfectly fine!” He would always answer.

Lies. Painful lies. Like today, I noticed how his eyes followed each of us intently when we played soccer during gymnastics.

I do not like to see Taemin in a wheelchair.

 

One, two and three have all been the same person.
My friend has rheumatism (or whatever name is given to this disorder) and sometimes had to go to school in a wheelchair because of her condition.
I hated to see it, every single time...
She was my good friend from primary school, and though I do not see her anymore,
she still remains a very important person in my life.

When I read your drabbles, I could empathize with most.
Lately, I've been growing apart with some of my friends, good friends, that I've been friends with since forever, and that makes me feel very sad. But you say you believe it's unavoidable and I feel that way too. Just that this sadness makes it very hard to just go with it and accept that nothing lasts forever...
Just wanted to let that out.

These are so adorable!

We all have that friend like Taemin and this felt close to my heart cause it feels like everyone must have gone through something similar in life.

Love it!
