South Park Growing Up Novels & Stories

I began peppering his cheeks with kisses, and he giggled continuously. “Mommy,” he whined. “I’m not a baby anymore.” That caused me to stop. Then, I pursed my lips and shook my head. “That can’t be,” I said. “You’re always going to be my baby. You can’t grow up too fast, bub.” Sarah, on the other hand, began wiping her fake tears. “He grow up too fast.” I chuckled and shook my head. “Let’s just watch some TV,” I said.

The colors on the TV slowly started to blur together. Red rocks. Brown groundhog. Green cactus. Beside me, Richard chuckled under his breath. His voice was low and steady. He wouldn’t suddenly loom over me, and he wouldn’t snap at me either. I closed my eyes. Grown-ups were strong. They got to choose what was on TV, eat caramel popcorn, and even tell a six-year-old kid: "You don’t have to become an adult right now." Even so, I still wanted to grow up fast. Once I was grown, I could decide a lot of things for myself. I wouldn’t have to listen to Elizabeth anymore.

"The amount they grew in the first month was far more than the last month. So their growth is slowing down. My guess is, that in three years they will be in their twenties and have stopped growing." Nodding I sulk. "What are you sulking for, that's good." "I got used to the idea of having babies, those first few days, then I blinked and they weren't babies anymore. Now you're telling me soon they won't even be children. I liked the idea of watching kids grow as I got old." Lucifer laughs. "You can't get old, remember?" "You know what I meant! It just feels weird and wrong that it all ended so quickly."

I tell him. A small leaf pops through the soil. I can tell he’s already past beginning stuff. “I didn’t think I could do that” Charles gasps. Next, we work on making the seedling grow into a small tree. After hours of work we take a break. “I never believed in things like this before today and now I can make plants grow” he tells me. “Your power is amazing, there’s nothing you won’t be able to do”I tell him. We lay in the grass and two enormous green dragonflies dart past us.

“With your growing height, trust me, they’ll start listening to you. And when that happens, you won’t have to be afraid to speak your mind.” Of course, height didn’t precisely reflect maturity. Even though Svvere was only six, he was already as tall as Gia’s shoulders. Gia had been surprised when they met yesterday. Phone screens didn’t do justice to Svvere’s growth. They hadn’t seen each other in less than two years, yet his height had changed drastically. “So, if I want to grow up, does that mean I have to attend more parties like this?” “More or less, yes.” “Alright, I’ll try to grow up,” Svvere grumbled, still frowning. But at least he seemed more willing now.

The younger boys behind them gradually greeted Trenton one by one. Trenton walked over, holding his nephew. He patted Sonny on the shoulder and smiled. “It's been a while, Sonny. You’ve grown so much taller. You’re a young man now.” Sonny chuckled. “You guys do always say kids grow up so fast, Uncle Trenton.” He was already in middle school. “That’s right. You kids grow fast, while we just keep getting older.” “Uncle Trenton, you’re still so young. How could you be old? If you say you’re old, then aren’t my parents even older?”

"I mean… on the surface, and if I didn't really know you? It does all sound a little 'Twin Peaks.' But you've never been the kind of person to change up your whole life on a maybe or some other uncertainty. You’ve always been insightful, methodical. A planner. Hell, you had school and your career mapped out by the time you were 16 and made every bit of it happen along the way. So short answer is no, I don’t think its crazy. It's definitely unexpected, but… also sort of cool, too.” “Oh really, the biggest skeptic I know thinks it sounds cool.” He tried and failed to keep a straight face, the raised-brow deadpan quickly giving way to one of his winning smiles and a sincere laugh. She shrugged

Sigmund was quite surprised at how fast Max picked things up and how quickly he progressed. “I didn’t believe it when I heard you were only six. I had always thought you were a teenager. I can’t believe you’re really six.” Sigmund rubbed his head at this revelation. “Hi, my little friend. I can’t wait for you to grow up.” Max brushed his nose helplessly when he heard this. Everyone kept wanting him to grow up, but he was only six. He could only listen to this quietly and slowly wait to grow up. “Alright, my little friend. It’s time for me to return to my team.”
