I want to apologize for any of my dear readers who are still around. I have been attempting to write another chapter for this story for months now. Every attempt that I have made, sadly has just plain . I feel like I have reached a point where I keep trying to squeeze an orange, but there's juice left... I feel like I cannot get the story to progress to where I need it to, and I feel that I screwed it up and can't recover it. At this point, I think it would be best to put this story to rest. I can't seem to make it any better and everything I try to write on it is just crap. I am going to have to discontinue the story. 

I am so, so sorry. I wanted to give you all a story that you could all enjoy, but I feel as if I have utterly failed at doing so. I am so sorry, I couldn't give you the story that you all deserved. My deepest apologies! I really wish that I could have give you a better story. I'm so sorry! 

I wish you all the best and I hope you all are staying safe and healthy during this time!

Again, I'm so very sorry! 

UPDATED NOTE: I have decided that I will at least write an Epilogue for each of the characters to at least bring some closure to both my readers and myself. Each character will either have their own Epilogue or I'll put them all on one, so please anticipate that, though they may take me a while to complete.
