Spoilers to anyone not up to ch. 20 yet, read with caution!
Hi OP, I'm reading this rn and I need you to know that I've spent the last three days glued to your writing and stayed up from 10pm to 4am last night reading and started again at 11 am today and I'm finally on chapter 20 I'm not even done with it but I literally froze when it was revealed Chan blessed Jisung as a child, but the tears have not stopped flowing since he said "No parent should ever lay their hands on a child like yours did." OH MY GOD I'm utterly DEVASTATED. I have a literal page in my notes app devoted to my predictions each chapter, a list of vocabulary words I've learned while reading, and quotes that have hit me hard. That one is now at the tippy top of the list. Speaking of words I've learned, your writing style is so beautiful and descriptive, I've never read something where I can imagine each setting, facial expression, mood, just everything so perfectly. Thank you OP for writing this master piece. Like I said I'm still on chapter 20 but goodness gracious am I vibrating with excitement and suspense to continue!!!

OH. MY GOD. THANK YOU??????? asdlkfj;alskdjflaksdfj

thank you SO much!!! this is so so sweet I am quite literally kicking my feet at work. I'm so, so happy you enjoy the story so far! However, I will say you gotta sleep, anon!! ;) but really, I'm so so so happy you like it so much.

I knew for a long time that Chan would ultimately be the one to have protected Jisung, albeit unintentionally. It was so hard writing him as a... not very nice character at first knowing that he actually has a heart of gold buried under the pride and temper. I'm glad you liked that lil twist, though! I want to hear all about your predictions, vocab words, and quotes!! I'd love love love to know what has stuck out to you while reading. It's different for everyone, so I find it really fascinating learning what quotes have hit hard for different readers (if you're willing to share).

Thank you SO much for reading and for coming on here to share your thoughts! It really does mean the world to me. I'm excited to hear what you'll think about 21-23... ;) come share you thoughts on it when you're caught up! chapter 24 will be up soon, I promise <3
