Chapter 16; Moving

The Adolescent Adventures of Onew Appa and Baby Taemin

Taemin wiped his brow and smiled. He dipped a cloth into a bucket of water and squeezed it dry before continuing to wipe the floor. 

"Taemin, is it okay to bring your boxes to the truck already?" Jinki asked, filling a baby pink tumbler with coffee.

"Yeah, everything's packed," Taemin said as he looked over at Jinki. "I can't believe you still use that."

"Why not? You got it for me as a present," Jinki said, taking a sip of his coffee.

"Yeah, when I was five," Taemin said, standing up and stretching.

"So? It's still a present," Jinki said, walking over to Taemin and ruffling his hair. Taemin hugged Jinki and rested his head on his chest,

"Is it really the best decision to move?" He asked. Jinki kissed Taemin's hair and patted his head.

"I know you're worries that if Minho came back he's not going to find you...but it's more convinient to live there. It's closer to your school and it's a 3 bedroom apartment. We can turn one into a study room or a dance room so you can practice." Taemin leaned up and kissed Jinki on the cheek.

"I know, Appa," Taemin said. Jinki smiled and held Taemin's shoulders.

"By the way, I wanted to show you something. I found it after the movers took out the dresser," Jinki said, taking out a picture in his pocket. He grinned and showed it to Taemin. "Look! This is probably my favourite picture of you when you were small!" 

The picture showed him running up to the camera, with Jinki almost falling while trying to catch him in the background. "YAH! APPA!" Taemin screamed as he grabbed the fully exposed picture of him from his father's hand. "I'm so exposed in this picture!" Taemin blushed.

"So? It's cute! It was the day before your birthday when I was giving you a bath. Key was going to take a picture of you with the bubble bath but then Minho unexepectedly came over and you were so excited you ran downstairs ," Jinki laughed.

"APPA!" Taemin pouted. "That's not funny! It was so embarrassing! Even Minho hyung hasn't let me forget it". Jinki grinned and snatched the photo out of Taemin's hand.

"Maybe I'll ask Key to post it on the billboard in his cafe," Jinki teased.

"You wouldn't dare, appa," Taemin threatened.

"Oh, I would," Jinki smirked. Taemin and him had stared each other doown before he attempted to run for the door. 

"NOOOO!" Taemin yelled, chasing after Jinki. He tackled Jinki to the ground, wrestling him for the photo. Jinki laughed and gaurded the photo with his life.

"Appa, give it!" Taemin whined.

"No~" Jinki teased, he broke loose from Taemin's grip and ran towards the car. Taemin chase after him and unfortunately for him, his dad was taller, so he had to jump for the picture when Jinki kept the photo out of reach. Jinki laughed and hugged Taemin. 

"Ahh~ my baby's all grown up," Jinki pouted. "Hey, when Minho comes back make sure to use protection, okay?" Taemin blushed and stomped his foot.

"Appa!" Taemin whined, ignoring the stares of the movers.

I'm off to college 8D so things have been pretty hectic. I know. I know. I keep making excuses BUT I am going to work while I study v-v. I'm hoping to update more often and increase the quality of my writing, especially because I'm majoring in creative writing. The chapter that I've put out most of the time has not been edited or proof read. I know that I can do better. Anyways if I don't update often you'll see me on my youtube channel making videos.

ALSO-- if you have any suggestion for what videos I should make, be it reviews, personal opinions, etc please tell me becuase I think it would be an awesome collaboration sort of thing 8] But as I said before if you don't see me updating, you'll see me on youtube. You can watch me do stuff like go to college and stuff. ikr. yay. I'll see you guys whenever.

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)
