Chapter 10; I Hate You Appa! [Part 2]

The Adolescent Adventures of Onew Appa and Baby Taemin

"Minnie! Over here!" Taemin pouted as he saw Key and Jonghyun instead of Jinki. It's not that he hated them but he didn't like anyone other than his appa picking him up. He slowly made his way to Key, who picked him up. Key buckled Taemin on the booster seat and they drove back to Key and Jonghyun's apartment. When they got to the apartment, Taemin immediately ran to the living room and took a space in the corner, playing with his toys. 

"Taeminnie? Do you want anything to eat?" Key asked. Taemin pouted and faced the corner, purposely ignoring Key.

"Taeminnie?"

"What's wrong?" Jonghyun asked. Key shrugged and sat down beside Taemin.

"Taeminnie, tell Umma what's wrong." Taemin sniffle trying to fight back his tears. Noticing this, Key  went over to hug Taemin but Taemin harshly pushed him away.

"NO! I don't want you! I want Onew Appa!" Taemin yelled, balling his fists.

"Taemin..."

"I HATE YOU! I DON'T WANT YOU!" Taemin cried. "I WANT APPA! NOT YOU!"

Key and Jonghyun were left speechless. Taemin had never yelled at them before. Jonghyun knelt down in front of Taemin.

"Onew appa will be back soon, Taeminnie." Jonghyun said, trying to calm the crying boy.

"I want appa NOW!" Taemin cried and kicked Jonghyun on the shin before making a run for it and locked himself in the bathroom. Key sighed and knocked on the door.

"Minnie?"

"Go away!" Taemin yelled. It took hours until Taemin stopped crying. Key took the keys for the bathroom and unlocked the door, only to find Taemin sleeping in the bathtub. 

When Taemin woke up, he found himself on top of Key and Jonghyun's bed. Taemin climbed off the bed and quietly opened the door. He sneaked out of the apartment and made his way to the convenience store across the street.

"U-um...excuse me?" Taemin asked, using the tip of his toes to stand up. The old man in front of the cashier, turned around and looked confused as he couldn't see anyone in front of the counter.

"Um...down here." The old man chuckled and smiled at Taemin.

"What can I do for you, young man?"

"Do you have a phone I could borrow?"

"Sure!" He took out a phone from behind the counter and gave it to Taemin. Taemin then took out a piece of paper from his pocket and dialed the messy numbers written on it.

"H-Hello? Is Minho hyung there?" After a few minutes, Taemin saw a car park outside the convenience store. He gave the phone back to the old man and said "Thank you!" before running to the car. Minho opened the door from inside and patted the space next to him for Taemin to sit on. While they drove off, Taemin could swear he heard a high pitched scream from the building.

Chapter 18: Don't worry about your parents, do what makes you happy ^_^

Chapter 18: Do what you want to do! Thts the most important thing. Your parents love you and will most likely come to accept your choice. You cant go by your parents rules forever ( and i know that sounds like a bad thing but everyone has to do it at some point) dont be scared to tell them. Even if they get mad and yell at you. Just remember that they will ALWAYS love you. No matter if you dont become a nurse or teacher. Things will calm fown eventually. And just remember being depressed is not healthy at all so you need to fix that pretty fast. I hope this helped. Feel better!

Chapter 18: omg baby girl! i get depression every year at university -_-; i cant imagine how hard for it to be doing something you dont even like. i really wish you didnt need to but you need to tell your parents. its only gonna get harder as time passes. where are you staying right now? they're gonna be disappointed and probably mad, but you might need to live with them for a while or in the future and its always not a good idea to sour relationships with your parents when we're still young and we still sort of need them. anyway, you should just rest for a while, and just get yourself feeling better before deciding whether you want to go to college again next semester for computer science which would lead to software designing (im guessing). you dont have to plan now because you'd probably freak out but when you feel motivated to research some more, definitely do it!
but just rest! take some time off! everyone needs it and even if you just end up on tumblr or youtube watching shinee videos eating chips, if it makes you happy, just do it! :) and of course, i am happy to keep talking ;D
<3 hope this quarter life crisis ends soon!

Chapter 18: oh my gosh, why would we ever think to kill you? what you're going through right now is something a lot of others do too. you are not alone. if you feel like game designing is what you truly want to do then by all means go for it.
I know you are going through a lot of pressure right now but I hope you can muster up the courage to talk to your parents. maybe try talking to other people first - to help you gain a little confidence before telling them.even if you aren't planning on telling them now, talk to somebody, don't keep your worries to yourself. you'll be surprised at how much it'll help.
your parents are likely to be unhappy with your job choice because they are worried for your future and whether this career will help you get through life, but if you show them that you are passionate and dedicated to the job and that you are truly happy while doing it, i'm sure they will soon change their minds.
i wish you the best of luck! fighting!

Chapter 18: As much as i love this story, it's not important right now. You need to speak to your parents and tell them how you feel. I know it's going to be hard, but ask them why they think being a teacher and being a nurse is a good job. Is it because it is well-paid? Good hours? An industry where you'll never be unemployed? Because for most reasons, the source is because they want you to be happy. You need to make them realize that though you really appreciate it, them forcing you to fit into their definition of a perfect worker is making you extremely unhappy. They have to realize that their actions, in which they think will make you happy, are actually making you depressed. The fact that you are questioning your life is not what a parent is supposed to make you feel. You need to speak to them about this and I know it won't be easy, but it will be worth it.

Chapter 18: I think it's good that you did something for yourself instead of blindly following what your parents wanted you to do because what's most important is what YOU want since it is YOUR life after all and not theirs, you should be making such decisions... I know it's scary not knowing what you're going to do next after dropping out but I'm sure you'll find something that you love eventually :D Take it from someone in their third year of university... College is not for everyone and it's not all it's cracked up to be, you dodged a major bullet imo LOL xD So good luck in the future, author-ssi... But anyway, I'm looking forward to the corrections you're making to the fic and your next update ;D

Chapter 18: You should always know, you did the right thing dropping out; if you love your job you will never have to work a day in your life. I'm proud of you for doing what you think is right. (Pm me if you need someone to talk too- I will always help where I can)
