When My World Falls-JAEYONG

13 | sulking

Taeyong was still at his part-time and currently checking the animals that are admitted in the veterinary. Doing it just made him think about Jaehyun when he told himself to stop. The man wouldn't possibly want him to 'take care' of him. A week passed really fast and Taeyong wasn't even able to get to know him more.

He must be really annoying.

The boy huffed and rolled his eyes, pouting, while he was feeding the rabbit inside the little room it has.

"I shouldn't really take this as a big deal," he said, "They're right. I just put myself in something I don't even know how things work. I just thought I could help...Do you guys think I'm annoying? Am I the most annoying hooman you've met? I do take care of everyone here, right? I even give everyone some time--"

"Uncle? Why are you talking to the animals?"

Taeyong looked by the door and saw a familiar little girl, wearing a cute pink outfit. The boy's frown became a wide smile. He gave a soft chuckle and asked the girl to come over. She happily went and the veterinarian carried her.

"Your father didn't tell me you'll be coming over," the boy uttered.

Luana shrugged, "It wasn't also planned. I just pushed Dada into the idea just now."

"Ohh. Well, how is school?" Taeyong asked as he continued feeding the animals with one hand.

"Nah..."

The older furrowed his eyebrows and hummed, "What do you mean by that?"

"Nothing really special. School is still school, uncle," she answered.

"Really? Are your grades good?"

The girl's eyes suddenly widened and looked at his uncle. She does know what it means when Taeyong asks about her markings. Well, atleast that's what she thought.

"Of course, uncle. I'm as good as you," she joked.

Taeyong laughed, "You're flattering me. You do that when you want somene."

"Maybe...maybe not"

"If you show me your grades, then I'll maybe buy you ice cream."

"Okay! I'll go and get it from Dada's drawer," she said.

The boy placed her down, ruffling her hair before she went out of the room. Taeyong then goes back to where he stopped. He sighed as he went to get and give some vitamins to others.

Why was he even bothered by someone he just met?

"Thinking about something?"

Taeyong hummed, "Luana's getting her card in your drawers, by the way. She might change her grades."

"You're bothered by that?" Taeil asked.

"It's just...something. As always, I'm making things a big deal again. I'm over exaggerating."

"Someone told you that?"

The boy pouted, "...No."

"Then what are you sulking about? No one even told you that you were exaggerating," Taeil uttered, crossing his arms.
