Afraid // Jaeyong // Texting ff

4. why are you in such a big time rush?

Taeyong POV

Jaehyun (work)

we discussed the dates of my next tour today
I'll forward you the email with the information

thank you

oh another thing I wanted to talk to you about
your contract is ending soon
I was hoping you would renew it and work with me a little longer

gladly
I didn't even realize it's already been a year

I know right? It doesn't feel like that long of a time
so I'll bring the new contract with me and you can just sign it when we're at the studio?

sounds good

okay great

Broyoung

eyyy ty track

fuck off

why so serious

where should I start

damn
anyways
when is the next time you'll have a break

Idk
what kind of break

like a day off

maybe next month?

no that's too long
let's get dinner tomorrow

sure
but like at nine

yeah okay
what do you wanna eat?

I don't care just pick something you know I'd like too
oh shit sorry I have a business dinner tomorrow
what about saturday?

yeah saturday works too

okay great
text me the address and we'll meet there?

okay

great
see you on saturday!!

no Taeyong wait

what is it?

why are you in such a big time rush?

I'm just
I've got a lot in my plate

I know
but you have to slow down at some point or you'll break down

I know but I don't have the time

then take it
seriously Taeyong this is dangerous
you haven't had a break in so long
and you don't even know when your next break is gonna be
this is not healthy

how about you talk to Lee Soman and convince him to give me a fucking break
I'm one of his main artists so he tries to push me as much as he can and well it's working
I do a lot but I also get something from it
I can provide for me and Jaemin and he can live a comfortable life and choose any college he wants
I'm doing this for him

I know
but I also know Jaemin and he'd never want you to overwork yourself for him
if you keep going at this speed you'll have a burnout at 24

I am 24

my point exactly

let's talk about this another time
I gotta get back to work

did you not listen to anything I just said

first of all I read it
second of all I did but I can't just drop everything I'm doing I have responsibilities
I'll see you on Saturday

yes I'll see you then
take care of yourself okay?

sure
