When Stars Align on Borrowed Time

Description

Sometimes it’s funny when a book tells about your whole existence in every word and every page. That’s what Tao – a boy with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia – thinks when he meets Yifan in a Cancer Support Group meeting. And no, it’s not okay.

 

Warning: Character Death (well duh, this is based on The Fault in Our Stars)

 

Disclaimer: The Fault In Our Stars is John Green’s, not mine. I tried my best to interpret the novel as I see fit for a fanfiction. This fic took most of my time and this could have been the bane of my existence, I swear I had never written a single oneshot that lasted 4 months in the making. To the readers, I hope I did not butcher such a famous book. Another thing, I wrote this weeks after I read the book in February, finished in June 8. 2 days after the movie premiere.

Foreword

written for KTStylefest over at Livejournal. Do check out the community for more TaoRis fics!

Uhm maybe January 2015? lol I just came back to finish the last chapter. really afraid to finish this because I know that I will shed bucket of tears. I don't regret reading it except for the fact that I read it while Im in school and my friends laugh at me. ㅠㅠ
