wc: 2k

a/n: the colored sentences are in sign language

————————————————————————————

With a sigh, I sat in the car, Haerin's hand in mine as I simply looked out the window. Danielle was the first to start laughing when she heard my sigh. "Oh, come on. I really don't understand how you can't like kids," Danielle said as she turned her head towards me. My attention now on Danielle, I replied somewhat annoyed, "Kids are just like drunken adults. Always have to watch out for them."

I immediately felt the pressure of my girlfriend's hand. Her head lifted from my shoulder to look at me better. "I always have to watch out for you when you're drunk," she said, which made Hanni and Minji laugh. I blush a little as I simply put my index finger to my lips and said, "Shh," making Haerin roll her eyes with a smile.

"Besides, we have a baby," I said, which made Hanni laugh again and nudge Hyein. Hyein snorted and I said, "Watching out for Hanni is already a hassle." Hanni looked at me with an open mouth, and Hyein immediately laughed and nudged her.

"It'll only take a day, Unnie," Minji said, looking up from her phone.

I just nodded, not wanting to discuss the topic further. I had complained enough already. Apparently, the others were quite satisfied with the show we would be shooting today.

"Can't we go back to the dogs? They're cuter," I said, which made Haerin nod. Her fingers played with mine, her head still on my shoulder. I smiled as I gave the younger one a gentle kiss on the head.

The rest of the car ride wasn't anything special. Hyein and Hanni watched some Instagram Reels together on Hyein's phone, Minji seemed to be texting someone, while Danielle simply looked out the window. Haerin and I were in our own little bubble, just playfully intertwining our fingers.

The car stopped, and our manager promptly opened the door for us. My hand immediately left Haerin's as I allowed myself to be pulled out of the car, of course, by Danielle.

Together, we entered the building, all eyes on the man in front of us who would explain everything to us. Naturally, he also told us the names of the children and that there was an age group from 2-year-olds to 5-year-olds. I nodded in understanding. Now, apparently, we were allowed to mentally prepare ourselves in the adjacent room while they prepared the set.

"Aw. No babies?" Danielle asked as she pouted and sat down on one of the chairs. Minji chuckled, her hands on her hips. "Babies would have been preferable to me too," the black-haired girl said. My eyes also immediately fell on Haerin, who stood in the completely different corner of the room, her eyes already fixed on me, which made me smile.

"And you? What would you prefer?" I asked, which made Haerin hum a little. She raised her head thoughtfully.

"I don't mind any," she replied after a short pause, which made me nod my head with a smile.

Immediately, Hanni and Hyein also voiced their preferences. The door opened, and we were now allowed to enter the room where the children sat, played, and laughed. Danielle squealed with delight, which amused me and made me shake my head in amusement.

All the children's eyes turned to us, and almost immediately, a boy approached Danielle and dragged her to the play blocks without even asking. I watched the younger one go and smiled a little. Danielle looked really happy. Besides, she was perfect for this job. She was always cheerful, unlike me. I was more... mostly always in a bad mood?

Minji clapped her hands, immediately grabbing the attention of some children. Minji smiled kindly. "Who wants to arm wrestle with Unnie?" she asked cheerfully, and almost immediately, several children jumped up from their chairs, raising their hands and shouting their names loudly.

I hated how loud kids could get, but... they were having fun, so that was okay. At least no one was crying. Hyein and Haerin also mingled and now interacted with the children, but I still just stood there, observing the whole situation.

Suddenly, I heard loud crying right next to me, and my eyes widened in shock as I looked at the young girl, her mouth wide open as she held her fists to her eyes and cried.

With my mouth hanging open, I looked at the crying child and slowly crouched down. A nervous smile on my lips, I asked, "What's wrong?" which seemed to only make the child cry more. Blinking rather surprised, unsure of what exactly I should do, I said, "Uh, everything will be okay. There's nothing dangerous here," trying to comfort the little one.

The girl pointed her finger at me and said, "This Unnie is angry," suddenly, and my eyebrows raised.

I heard Hyein laugh a bit, but she quickly was nudged by Minji warningly. I swallowed. "N-No, I'm not angry," I said, which apparently didn't help. Sighing, I took my hands and pulled my cheeks apart to make a funny face. "I'm just playful," I added with a feigned high-pitched voice. The girl seemed to calm down slowly, although she still had a bit of a hiccup from crying. Her eyes looked at me somewhat more curiously and then she started to laugh.

This is why I hate kids...

I smiled politely. "Do you want to... play with me?" I asked, visibly awkward, but the younger one didn't seem to notice. Her hand grabbed mine, and I really had to fight against myself not to pull my hand away, as she led me to one of the tables. A smile on her face as she placed me next to Hanni and sat herself next to a boy.

Apparently, this was the drawing table.

"These will be good pictures," Hanni said quietly, giggling. She meant the funny face I had just made. I immediately nudged her with my knee so she wouldn't bring it up again. Hanni just chuckled softly as she continued coloring her mandala.

My eyes looked at Minji, who seemed to be playing a monster, Haerin participating as a princess in the roleplay, protected by the children, and Hyein seemed to be reading to one of the children.

Then my eyes fell on a little girl who was reading a book all alone. My eyes narrowed immediately. "Is Unnie angry again?" the girl asked me, on the verge of tears. Panic widened my eyes, and I shook my head and hands frantically. "No, no," I said immediately, which seemed to calm the little one down. I breathed out in relief.

"How old do you think I am?" Hanni asked, smiling, pointing to herself. The boy looked at the girl next to him and then to Hanni. "100?," he asked, and Hanni leaned forward almost immediately, shocked. I chuckled softly, but I tried to suppress it desperately.

My eyes kept drifting back to the little girl who was reading all alone. "Hey," I said, "Hello? Little one?" I asked a bit louder, since she probably couldn't hear me over all the children's noise. The boy in front of Hanni looked at me. "It's no use. She can't hear anything," the boy said casually, but then he proudly lifted up his drawing and grinned at Hanni.

I nodded in understanding, forcing myself not to furrow my brow so the girl wouldn't cry anymore. I leaned closer to Hanni. "I'm going to go over to that girl there," I said, and Hanni immediately nodded her head. I focused my eyes on the little girl as I sat down on the floor in front of her.

Apparently, she hadn't noticed my presence yet, which made me chuckle a bit. So, I tapped on the book on her lap, right in her line of sight. Her brown shining eyes looked at me, her lips slightly parted. With her little finger, she pointed to her ear and then made an X sign.

I simply smiled. Luckily, I knew sign language because my mother had always been hard of hearing and it only got worse with age. "Is the book good?" I asked in sign language, and the girl's eyes widened even more. Her tense face immediately relaxed, and I heard her let out a sigh.

"Yes," she replied with a nod of her head. I smiled gently. "What is it about?" I asked as my eyes briefly glanced at the book and then back to the girl. I could tell that the set's camera was now focusing more on me thanks to the sign language which was surprising for some people. But the rest of the kids didn't seem to care much.

Haerin also looked at me, a broad grin on her lips, prompting Minji to nudge her. Haerin quickly corrected her expression. "It's about a princess who has to kiss a frog. He then becomes a prince," the girl said, which made me nod in understanding.

I chuckled slightly. "Do you want to play something with me? Or should I leave you alone so you can continue reading your book?" I asked patiently. Like Haerin, the little girl lifted her head and seemed to be thinking. I could feel my body relaxing as I waited for the younger one to respond.

"I want to play something," she said with a smile, and I stood up right away. With a smile on my face, I held out my hand to the little one, and she immediately took it. "What do you want to play?" I asked, tilting my head to the side. Once again, the younger one pondered.

"Catching ball. Daddy... never plays with me," the girl said, and I nodded in understanding. I could feel Haerin staring at me the whole time. Our eyes briefly met, and a smile spread across my face. Haerin looked rather proud. I quickly looked away when I noticed my cheeks slowly turning red.

So, I grabbed the ball and looked at the little girl. Slowly, I threw the ball, and she caught it. I clapped my hands in joy, even though she couldn't hear it, she could see it. She jumped up and down excitedly. Now, she was the one throwing the ball to me, and I caught it. Just like before, she clapped her hands, which made my grin even wider. I laughed, and this time, it was definitely genuine.

————————————————————————————

"Okay... it was sweeter than expected," I said as I made myself comfortable in the car, a gentle smile on my face. The door was now closed, and with a jolt, I felt Haerin's lips on mine. My eyes widened, but of course, I kissed my girlfriend back. Her hand on my face, pulling me closer to her.

"Hey. Not in the car," Minji said, and reluctantly, Haerin pulled away from me. She sighed and sat back down normally. I raised my eyebrows, as this behavior was unlike my girlfriend. She was usually more reserved and slower.

Danielle laughed, while Hyein looked amusedly at Minji. "Oh, come on. Let them be. Haerin did really well during the shoot," Hyein said, laughing. "Yeah, when Unnie started with sign language, Haerin almost started drooling," Hanni joked, and immediately, my head turned to Haerin.

"Was that why?" I asked softly, her fingers pressing against mine again. But Haerin just shook her head. "It wasn't about the sign language... it was... just sweet to see you with the child," Haerin answered softly. "Especially since you were smiling, even though you hate kids," Haerin added, her cheeks visibly flushed.

I smiled amusedly as I intertwined our fingers. Immediately, the younger one looked at me. My lips touched hers briefly, of course, otherwise Minji would complain again. "Home, okay?" I asked softly, and Haerin blushed even more. A small smile appeared on her lips, and she squeezed my hand. "Home," she confirmed.

"That's gross. Hyein, don't look," Hanni said, but she was still taking pictures with her phone. Until Hyein eventually photobombed her photos.

What are you up to these days? How are you doing? We would love a life update! 🌻✨

Life is going quite swimmingly which is actually shocking to me because I’m not used to being in a state of contentment. I’m Bangkok for the past month with my boyfriend and we love it here.

It’s hot AF and the pollution is whack, yet it’s literally the most incredible city I’ve visited. Thailand is crazy but in the best way possible. And people are so polite, sentient and respectful. I love bowing to show gratitude I think it’s a perfect way to show humility.

Coming from Canada which is one of the most failed western societies I feel so safe and at home now. Even after spending 3 months in France I’m sorry but I have to say that even Europe is a shithole compared to Asia. The inflation in France is so completely mental that I was going broke just getting basic groceries, when it never used to be this bad before le khoevid19.

When I was in Mexico last year I felt the same way about leaving the west because at least people in so-called “developing countries” are still human, family-oriented, respectful and not all basic shills to capitalism grindset culture. Paying $2k a month to live in a closet sized apartment in some toilet in the US, Canada, Australia, Europe etc is not normal and I will never accept it and I don’t think anyone should.

I love that Asia is the continent of my ancestors, I love having my own apartment for a reasonable price, I love seeing people who are happy and not the depressed zombies of Canada, and I love the freedom of being able to support myself financially the way millennials no longer can in the west.

All my anxiety is gone. I’m happy and grateful exploring new countries with my bf and we’re going to Cambodia in 5 days. I believe in God more than ever. I feel financially secure for the next few months at least lol but even glad for that! I might have some great new career prospects and an interesting (fingers crossed 🤞🏼) screenwriting assignment coming up!

Anyways sorry for this rant but just thought I’d share how I found this difficult yet worthwhile path to happiness 😭😅 Just to think that if I didn’t have the guts to quit my job four months ago, I would’ve never been able to visit France, Italy, Thailand and Cambodia and I would still be miserable sitting in a real estate office all day. And somehow it’s all thanks to my boyfriend for giving me the courage and support to live this unconventional yet incredible life.

[kindahoping4forever]

omg u should make a series for what's looking like ai2 on this vacation like u did superbloom 🤞🏼 that would be everything and more

Well first off, I very much appreciate you thinking of me and my writing when you saw the content 😌

I'm currently 2k+ words into a story that I'm excited about but that is taking a lot more brainpower than my usual fare (there's some story elements I've never really dealt with before so it's lowkey intimidating 😭) so if I were going to take on any other fics, it probably wouldn't be for a bit tbh. But I did have an idea brainstorm from that content and I am hoping to get back into a more consistent writing routine so we'll see what happens? 🤔

Hiii 👋🏻 I've just finished reading AYC on ao3 and hooo boy I think I've just found my fave a/b/o fic in this fandom! Just wanted to thank you so much for posting your story! I know sometimes things could get shitty for fic writers so I really appreciate you. I'm not requesting anything here, just wondering if the next AYC chapter is in the works? Take all the time you want love I'll be happy whenever you get to update! Xoxo ❤️

Ahh reading this made me so happy 🥰 thankyou for such kind words, it really makes my day!!

I have been promising Part 7 for a while now and I feel so bad that I haven't been able to post it yet, so thankyou for your patience and for being so nice about it 💕

I'm actively trying to get more of it done every day at the moment, so I don't think it will be much longer now. Fingers crossed 🤞🏼

Currently, I have 5k written, and I want to write another 2k before I'll be ready to post Part 7. I still think Part 10 will be the final chapter at this stage.

Part of me is eager to get the final four parts written and posted, but the rest of me is terrified because I've never done anything like this before 🙈 I just really want people to like the ending and I'm such a perfectionist that if I don't feel like I can do it right, I avoid doing it at all costs. Which is what has happened here 😅

Okay tangent over. Thankyou so much for sending me such a lovely ask, I really love it so much 🥰🥰🥰

[thinkatoryx]

I hope one of your updates is DYWGU! 🤞🏼

I actually wrote about 2k of a DYWGU chapter already! (It is mostly porn.) It may be the only thing to come out this week, because I was completely unaware of how much I have to fit into this chapter. Somehow this was the only one the muse wanted to do, though, which I know won't get many complaints.

[mintedemrys]

I broke 10k on this fic so far. I'll be posting it in parts of about 2k/chapter and I have no idea how frequent that will be. Let's see if this one actually gets finished 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

Im trying to work on a new fic but I have no idea where to go with it next.... maybe I'll post part of it? Idk
