Enough With the Short Jokes Already

Description

 

Being short was something that had its ups and downs.

On one hand, you had people who thought it was cute. On the other hand, people were constantly thinking you were younger than you actually were. On the other hand you couldn’t reach whatever you needed if it was on a high shelf. On the other hand, everyone was taller than you. On the other hand, you were sometimes subject to bullying.

Yeah, the cons kind of outweighed the pros. I knew that feeling fairly well.

My height is barely scraping 152 centimeters. I’m constantly being mistaken as an elementary school student even though I’m already nineteen years old. The people at my workplace seem to enjoy watching me squirm since I can never reach anything they tell me to get, and usually have to result to asking the taller tenants for help. Oh yeah, and my brother is already taller than me, and he’s only fourteen.

It also doesn’t help that I seem to a bully’s favorite target either.

Especially to a one Park Chanyeol.

The tall jerk. 

Foreword

Hello Readers!

I feel like it has been forever since I last posted anything (probably because it has been), but senior year is really kicking my , and I realize just how little free time I actually have. 

Anyway! I'm actually a little reluctant to post this, since I don't actually have the whole thing written/planned out yet. But I feel like i need something to curb my urge to write.

A little bit of info before you read:

1. I read somewhere that Chanyeol's ideal type of girl was between 150-159cm, and since then, the plot for this story has been bugging me to no end. Edit: I should probably say right now that of course, I don't know if this is true or not. The internet isn't always a trustworthy place, so if that's the case, and I am wrong, I sincerely apologize (_ _)".

2. I don't know EXO personally (unfortunately), so I can only write them "in character" as far as my knowledge of them goes. 

3. If at any time I mess up something factually (ages, dates, etc.) I apologize in advance.

4. I don't know how much confidence I will have in most of this story, so I apologize if I am ever incredibly slow to update.

5. I'm actually around the same height as the character I'm trying to portray (150cm, in case you were wondering), so hopefully I can make this somewhat relatable. 

I appreciate that you are taking the time to read this, so I hope you enjoy it :)

Characters:

Choi Mina

Chapter 12: Hi, I read this again. Seems like I was the last one who commented last year. Actually, this story really reminds me of myself. I'm in my senior year and I'm not even reaching 150cm. Well, hoping for me to get 160cm at least. Anyway, as I said (or write) before, I love this story ^.^

Chapter 12: This is a masterpiece. I really love how simple the plot line is, but how you put so much effort into the smaller details and making the readers feel close to the characters. Thank you so much for this fantastic piece of fiction!
