Foreword

A year ago when I started to write my first fanfiction and my first story in english as well to be honest, I was hardly stating to my nice reviewers that my chapters didn't need description to convey feelings or ambience, that i was prefering dialogue and action part to do so, that i was writting in a minimalist style to let my reader's imagination build the decor of my story according to their taste and state of mind.

A year passed and I encountered multiple authors with various styles and way of conveying feelings, describing action and building atmospheres and my own style changed thanks to many of them, helping and supporting me as my readers too, of a ton of fanfics read at night and to some very talented reviewers. It changed even more when I started to review, edit and co-write stories for other authors learning from their mistakes, surpassing myself in romantic scenes when I'm all but that myself XD.

This story is another challeng for me. It was at first a plot that I had imagine in less than five minutes and sent to Otornim, since she as requesting some ideas and since I had no time or further inspiration to develop it but finding it worth it to do so even by someone else^^.  Then Moon-Walker launched a short story contest to celebrate her 6 years anniversary on AFF and her upcoming birthday and it was somehow the opportunity for me to ressurect that plot since Otornim was hesitant on it (for the good reason, she was feeling bad to use such a good plot XD for herself or so).

So here it is, wrote in less than an entire day (when i take a week at least to write a 5000w chapter most of the times). I'm very bad at summarizing stories, I have always been like that even if i don't like describing...

But it was hard to restrain myself to not add details, dialogues, descriptions, so i laught at myself for now having the urge to write description for anything when i was despising it a year earlier ^^.

Thanks again to Moon-Walker for giving me the chance and motivation to improve myself as an author and to challenge me! And for her to have kindly create the poster! If you are in need of a great visual for your beloved story don't hesitate and go to her shop page!

 

To my readers, know that this story would be thoroughly developped if many of you ask for it ;)

To match the colorful poster and background I will write a bonus part once my holidays are finished. Thanks again to Moon-Walker for sticking to my taste ;)

Chapter 1: !spoilers

first off i wanna advise jongin to hunt his mother down for abandoning him ugh! or like tell the world where he came from so his mother (and father?) knows what a fortune they have missed out lmao.
wow i didn't know orphans are that looked down in south korea? that's really messed up.
and why tf did the teacher tear his clothing drawings? because they look a lot more artistic than his own?? also the way he addressed his student orphan kim like the hell is wrong with this man child. he deserves to be fired t-t
now onto the romance, i like how our heroine is a foreigner! she's a sweetheart and that's exactly what jongin needs in order to open his heart to others. i enjoyed the way he eats everything she bakes lol their quarrels in those scenes were adorable as well!
what are the odds of him meeting her again by chance 10 years later? man, that was your chance to get back together! i can still feel their love for each other T-T i thought jongin was gonna help her out financially but i guess thats an open ending, still possible for them to reunite OTL
