Prelude

Sanctuary

In every heart, there is a room; a sanctuary safe and strong,

To heal the wounds from lover’s past, until a new one comes along

I spoke to you in cautious tones,

You answered me with no pretense;

And still I feel I’ve said too much

My silence is my self defense

And this is why my eyes are closed; it’s just as well for all I’ve seen

And so it goes, and so it goes, and you’re the only one who knows

So I would choose to be with you, as if the choice were mine to make

But you can make decisions too,

And you can have this heart to break.

- And So It Goes

 

This song came to my mind because of the word sanctuary in the first line, but as I thought about the rest of it in my head I realized that the whole song speaks to this story. I love this song, and I find it very meaningful in relation to the story. I hope you will find this story meaningful in your own way.

That was so beautiful!
Both were cute and I really love Baekhyun's character here. He is such a acceptable and friendly human and his family was also great. I love such people that don't judge others because of their uality or such things. But otherside people like Chanyeol's parents make me sad and mad. I can't believe that parents don't want their kid because he likes the same gender. I find this so sad.
And actually I thought it would be had a bad ending, so I cried with Chanyeol and felt with him. I really wanted break off because angst stories literally destroy me (but I read anyway further and make myself cry). So I'm really happy that they both came at the end together.
And you made it that little things become a big meaning. The fort was for me at the beginning nothing important but after time I understood also the meaning and I thought the same thing with the date idea as Chanyeol. I was very surprised that he really did it (I saw myself as a visionary xD). Such meanings I appreciate very much and I love it how youre title make sense.
So, I enjoyed 'Sanctuary' really, thank you for this wonderful story.

Chapter 3: I was just looking through kakao and someone who's a very good friend of mine happens to ship chanbaek alot; their display name was sanctuary. I thought, why not look it up in aff? and what do i know! o u o

-honestly, im not a huge fan of any angst because im a coward and i hate crying. i shed a few tears over tjis one though, and i was okay with it because the characters are so simply innocent and loving in their own way and you made it so everything worked out just fine; i love how its in chanyeol's point of view, being able to see him so vulnerable- i could just feel the love everywhere. the cute fluff makes me squeal, too. ♡

- and for husband and wife; you guys are too cute ! omg. ♡ hahaha.
