Expectation versus Reality

in The Comedy Club3 days ago (edited)

A young boy named Andy keeps on murmuring about the limitations of a minor kid, lots of do's and don'ts. He was born and raised in a family who are law-abiding citizens. He wants to grow fast so he can join motorcycle race and go wherever he wants without asking for parent's consent. He seeks freedom from strict house rules such as curfew, dating and all kinds of sermon from his mom, dad or elder sister. He can't wait until he reach the legal age to get a professional driver's license so to his excitement he took the step forward by applying for student driver's license.

Andy was so excited to his 18th birthday, he wants to find a job and do whatever he wants with his own life as adult especially being independent. Not only that, he wants to have a girlfriend. Fast forward he turned 18 and he got the driver's license for motorcycle and also paid a down payment for his motorcycle. He also joined a motorcycle race and rider's club. He also got hired in a call center company. He found a girl from the riding club who also joins motorcycle race. Now he got what he want: the motorcycle, job and a girlfriend. Later on, he realized the gasoline price is hiking, he still need to pay the monthly dues of the motorcycle, he also got tired of the graveyard shift schedule as a call center agent and his girlfriend got pregnant expecting triplets. He remembered when he was younger he always murmur of wanting to become adult as soon as possible to enjoy life and have fun. Surely he enjoyed life and had fun. But now that he's in legal age, he complains about the gas price, his monthly dues, work schedule and the burden of the responsibility for becoming a father to not only one baby but triplets so only at that moment he realized that life is hard and adulting is a scam, it's no longer fun. He feel trapped in the situation and said if he could only turn back the time he would have made a better decision.
