Not a grande, Not a venti
Description
Baekhyun is at a point in life where everybody asks "what am I doing? What is my purpose?". After getting divorced and after closing down a few of his businesses, he travels a few parts of the world that he hasn't really been to but will not want to leave. He meets a lone baker, a e with a beautiful soul, a bartender slash go go dancer that doesn't even speak, a priest in training that sins every now and then, a duo living on a farm that breaks the norms of relationships, and there's that one clumsy bartender that just won't get out of his head.
He journies through different parts of the world and different parts of his own self, slowly piecing together the puzzle that is life. Baekhyun experiences a sadness that most of us go through in order to find that one thing that really makes the demons inside us docile. And sometimes you don't have to listen to all those already-happy tumblr es that say 'you don't need anyone to be happy' because sometimes you might not need them, but you want them, and that's what really calms the storm in all of us.
Foreword
Hi there. I am writing because my cousin refuses to listen to me, so I hope you'll listen to me well okay? Okay. So first off, my name is Byun Baekhyun, I am a little over 23 years of age, but if you're a cute guy that likes younger men then I can be 19 for you.
Yes. Guy. I divorced my fiancé approximately 2 weeks ago, leaving whatever was holding our marriage in shambles. It was pretty messy. Runny mascara and all that, but she got over it once I introduced her to a rich Japanese business man I knew.
So going back to why I'm writing. And no. I'm not talking about how my cousin refuses to listen. I'm talking about the real reason. I'm actually not quite sure myself.
Have you ever been in a position where you think to yourself "oh . Is there no more options? Why does the world only have a yes, a no, or a maybe?" Well, let me tell you something. This awfully deep query came to me at exactly 8:37 am as I was waiting in line at the nearest Starbucks I could find.
Although there's a fourth size available in some countries, my country did not have it. So yeah. I stood there staring at the tall, grande, and venti cups when the question really hit me. "What if I want something in between the grande and the venti?" Although it's just a few milliliters it is often the finest of details that make all the difference. I then saw my fiancé as the question passed. She may or may not be the grande I settled for. And my other ex, the tall.
Okay, back to what I was up to. I'm actually going to Paris two days from now. I'm going to try and find that special person that represents the size in between the grande and the venti I settled for. What better place than the city of love right? I know. I feel smart sometimes.
By the way, I'm not gonna tell you where I'm from or give hints. Well, I already did. You know I'm somewhere that doesn't have that 'other size' that I'm looking for. And hey, thanks for listening. Or at least reading this, it means a lot. I'm going to call you My Friend, Park from now on just so this won't sound so impersonal.
I have to go now, My friend, Park. Until the next time. Or more like until I arrive in Paris.
your friend as well, Baekhyun.
