coolio8 This comment is so long haha thank you so much for taking the time to write this. I never knew that you were reading, but now that I do, I must say that I have faith in silent readers. It’s good to know that even though you don’t comment, you’re still getting so much from the words in these stories. That’s all that matters after all. : )

Also, you don’t know how flattered I was reading this. Haha I must’ve reread this two or three times. Recently I’ve been struggling with figuring out what my style is and you’ve helped me clear that up just a bit ^^ The unexpected and the lack of a formula really click. I really hate going with established plot lines in their traditional form because it feels like this story isn’t contributing to the writing world then. It’s a self esteem thing, I think >.< haha

Alright, now for your predictions… xD I love how detailed you got and then ended it with saying that you’re probably wrong about everything. If you’d like any sort of verification, you’re about...20% right. ^^;; I really, really, really adored reading it though. Sometimes I hope there are people who share their in-depth thoughts because it makes me reanalyze what I was planning. Sometimes – a lot of the time – readers catch something I didn’t and that ends up changing the entire course of the story. So…yes. Haha, that’s probably why it is unpredictable? I don’t even know what’s going on until I write it – all that’s going through my head is that I have a set ending and I just have to figure out how to get there. I’m sorry of rambling >.< You probably want to get to reading the story OTL

By the way, after your comment about Siwon, I’m thinking now that it would be a good idea to write some sort of insight into his mind, because it’s perfectly logical xD I never thought that maybe it doesn’t come off quite like that…^^:;; But you may shake, slap, and/or pummel him at will!

ryeoki Aww, I know what you mean. If Ryeowook could have a replay or redo, it would be fantastic. And yes, I agree with you. This is really heavy for you guys and me as well.

Thank you!

1cho2kim3lee We’re going to reveal Kyuhyun’s situation in the coming chapter ;) So just hold on! If Ryeowook dies…I think I would have a heart attack. Kyuhyun does need to get his sorry behind back though! >.<

maymaymay I agreed : ( This is very depressing…things should probably work out. I mean, it won’t be sad forever : ) Life is full of ups and downs. Kyuhyun definitely deserves a kick though lol

KIMparkshi I’m sorry! >.< Don’t cry! Things will get better, I promise :’ ) You’re always welcome for the updates haha ^^;; Thank you for waiting! I’ll try not to disappoint in the future.

staytruetome I know : ( Poor Ryeowook. He’ll get better though…I think.

slytherinprince LOL. I’m sorry OTL I hope you’re focusing on your exams!! I would say the next chapter update would make you less distracted…but I don’t know >.<;; Cliff hangers of a depressing context are my favorite…haha I guess that’s not great.

kyuminwook Yes, Kyuhyun needs to get back now that jerk. I hope Ryeowook doesn’t die >.< That would really be unfortunate for my KyuWook heart.

leunah23 You’re not the only one, I promise >__< I have that constricting pain too…it makes writing extra hard OTL Kyuhyun needs to get his act together and Ryeowook just needs someone to fix him : (

Thank you for loving this fic! Haha You’re always welcome as well ^^ you’re really too nice >///< haha  

RyeoKyuBy I’m happy that you can feel for Ryeowook >.< Also, it’s good that this chapter is having such a broad effect on readers. I’m truly shocked and happy as well.

As for Kyuhyun…well, you’re going to see what’s up with him in the coming chapter : ) I won’t say that he has a good excuse, because I’m not sure if it is.

furishia I know : ( I’m always feeling sad while writing this because I know what Ryeowook’s character is supposed to be like. I think I understand now why some readers haven’t been able to feel for Ryeowook as strongly as I do…they just don’t know what’s going on inside OTL

But I guess now everyone knows? As for Kyuhyun, you’ll see what’s happened with him in America. I won’t admit that it’s a good or bad excuse because I’m not even sure yet.

katharine Yes : ( Everything is very messed up right now and there are so many things that needs to happen and be answered. Kyuhyun’s situation is especially important. Yes, I also hope that Ryeowook will be okay soon! ^^

orchidork I’m not sure if it’s okay to be happy hearing these things haha. Actually, if you want an idea of what was going through my mind (if you care ^^;;) I actually had to stop halfway through the scene where Kyuhyun touched Ryeowook’s hand in the office because I was starting to cry when Ryeowook pulled away from him. I took like a five minute break and went back to writing it.

I’m so thankful for Victoria and Changmin as well : ) They’re trying to protect their friend and that’s all he has right now. Ryeowook definitely doesn’t deserve so much heartache considering how little he has actually done to deserve it >.<

Totally agree with the break down thing. I’ve been frustrated trying to figure out how to fit it in because I knew it was essential to the storyline, but now that it happened, I’m glad ^^ I know…everything is unfair and Kyuhyun’s ignorance fueled Ryeowook’s torment.

Your understanding of Kyuhyun’s character is really great : ) Haha I mean, it’s clear that you have a good idea of what’s going through his head, but I hope I can help clear up even more in the coming chapters ^^ Kyuhyun would be best summed up as naïve and conflicted though, you’re right.

Kyuhyun surely needs to take responsibility for everything he did. It’s just a shame to see him do such things. I really liked this last paragraph of yours haha
“Kyuhyun needs to come back and fix this. Ryeowook won't ever let another person in and only one of the two people who can help Ryeowook realize just how great of a person he is is alive. Kyuhyun needs to come back and convince Ryeowook that he isn't worthless and he wasn't using Ryeowook for ___ even though that's how Kyuhyun treated Ryeowook at the end.”

And my absolute favorite part of your comment: I think Ryeowook needs the rock to his balloon back.
 

Aaah, your username makes me happy xD I’m always glad to see you back to say more! Haha

It’s great to see that someone noticed the whole Ryeowook love confession thing ^^:; Or well, great to see that someone made a comment about it. He’s definitely crushed because it seemed like Kyuhyun told him that his feelings are worthless. It was just a bad situation.

Kyuhyun is a confusing character…he’s still struggling with his feelings for Ryeowook and his obligations and habitual value system. I’m actually thinking about writing a short story about Siwon’s behavior. Perhaps it’ll make more sense then, because his ideas and beliefs are Kyuhyun’s natural upbringing.

I totally agree with you about Kyuhyun still being the same person on the inside : ) He still loves Ryeowook – that should be obvious, so I hope this isn’t a spoiler alert xD But he’s surely a little..off, to say the least.

Your last statement about Kyuhyun belittling Hyungsik and Ryeowook’s relationship made me jump for joy. I felt like I was failing at this story for the longest time because readers hated Ryeowook and agreed with Kyuhyun about so many things. But then…you come along with your insights and I’m suddenly happy again! xD Yes, a key fact of Kyuhyun and Ryeowook’s relationship was that Kyuhyun never understood Hyungsik and Ryeowook’s love.

x FadingEchos Yes, the moment Ryeowook starts ignoring his inner Hyungsik, you can tell that everything is taking a turn for the worst…as seen already.

I think above all else, Ryeowook is terrified of Kyuhyun and his words and actions. They’re in such a difficult situation right now and it’s sad to see that : (

I wonder what will happen when Victoria and Changmin find Ryeowook as well!

Hmm…I wondering if I can explain this part xD Ryeowook saw having with Kyuhyun as a sort of apology and sort of a personal want. He saw the love on Kyuhyun’s face during those times and that’s how he convinced himself that it was alright – sort of like there was some unspoken kindness between them. In the following chapters though, Ryeowook starts twisting all of the things he saw into darker and sadder things like hate and disgust.

And yes! Blame Siwon! Haha he’s really more than just a bad influence.
 

willowtree You really do always find a way to like Kyuhyun! Hahaha xDD I love it. There always has to be someone who tries to understand the bad guy in a situation. I really hope that Ryeowook and Kyuhyun can work something out again as well. You’re right that Ryeowook won’t accept anyone but Kyuhyun or Hyungsik. There’s no real in between when it comes to love for him.

Kironstree I knoooow…

whiteflame Yeah it did turn into angst : ( I’m sorry…I tried to write fluff….lol but the plot line was too difficult to work about the sadness. Ryeowook knows that he pushed Kyuhyun away, surely, but he tried to reconcile and then it was Kyuhyun’s turn to push him away. You’re right about the circle of hurt though >.< They can’t stop. I hope they do soon though.

And yes, Ryeowook is deeply attracted to Kyuhyun (not a spoiler…hopefully…it was implied xD) and still he can’t get him out of his mind because he’s so caught up in him.

You’ll hear about Kyuhyun soon!!

wookiebear I know : ( I guess it’s a little late to say that he did hurt himself…sort of. The CD is going to burn. Not literally, or well, that’s a possibility, but as of now it’s probably not going to happen.

Shalis_Darkhunter Man, you guessed right hahaha Ryeowook definitely did do something…less than sane. Ah yes, you will find out what happens in the coming chapters : ) There’s more to be revealed about Kyuhyun’s side of the story in the next chapter!

kyuwook1311 Oh my ^^;; Thank you haha I’m glad that you’ve enjoyed(?) my stories haha Again, thank you for your support >.< It’s so crucial to writing, so I’m always so glad to hear from a new person. This story is definitely heavier than previous ones, just because of the level of pain…I think haha

Sjaadbj I hope Kyuhyun will know what Ryeowook truly feels as well!

theloveinlife Have I hit you with the worst yet? Haha ^^;; There’s still more to come on Kyuhyun’s side though. Just wait for it. Ryeowook is definitely just a little…poor little thing : ( Kyuhyun too, of course.

pearlia Thankfully he didn’t do anything super bad in the recent chapter : ) Well…I mean, it was still bad, but at least it wasn’t nearly as sad as what you thought >.< I hadn’t even thought that it sounded bad until you mentioned the soft skin of the arm and the bathroom…OTL

Ah, thank you! You’re always welcome : )

lynnsiow I’m glad that you’re seeing both sides of the situation : ( I tried to make it clear that they’re both struggling with their own problems and that even if they have feelings for one another, there are so many internal issues they need to work out before they can truly be together.

Hopefully, in the coming chapters things will be somewhat cleared up and messed up just a little more. I can’t say that there will be a happy ending anytime soon >.< I won’t say that it’s a sad ending either though, because even I’m not positive.

ryeoki Yeah : ( Kyuhyun has so many problems and Ryeowook does as well, though. They really need to figure themselves out before trying to be together again >.< Hopefully nothing super bad happens.

 

Author's Note

 

I'll be updating soon, I promise. Haha. I just felt like we all needed to simmer down for a second because emotions were high. Plus, I was really touched by all of your comments and I wanted to respond properly or else it would've bothered me.

Thanks everyone. I'll keep this short because I don't want to take up too much time. I hope you enjoy the coming chapters!

 

Sincerely,

its been 11 years since the story was completed, im super late but i just wanna say THANK YOU. thank you for giving us this beautiful Kyuwook love story. although at some point in the story, i was secretly hoping they wouldn't end up together, as much as i love kyuwook with all my heart, i just felt like they've hurt each other enough that even love couldn't begin to fix what they had, but as I was nearing the end of the story, thank you for proving me wrong. 2 broken individuals, dealing with their own issues, the haunting past and uncertainties of the future, but somehow they managed to make things work and made LOVE be enough, not to pick up where they left off, but to START anew, as healed individuals, and persons who understood how genuine and sincere love could give life so much more meaning.
I love both stories to bits, however, i've got a few questions that im afraid will be left unaswered lol.

Firstly, did Kyuhyun ever find out that it was Ryeowook who saved him years ago? I feel like it played a very important role in the story, esp Kyu's life, but there was no other mention of it, only that Victoria found the journal. no further mention/referenced about it, so i guess Kyu didn't find out and neither Wookie. But in the journal, Kyu did say he wanted to fall in love with that person, i can only imagine the fluff had they found out it was them all along.
Secondly, i haven't fully grasped what kind of game Kyu & Siwon were playing, 'cept those little snippets of bets where they toyed around, but the intensity of the game wasn't revealed, nor how it came to be. Esp at a later part where Kyu seemed helpless and afraid of Siwon and the latter seemed to be claiming ownership over Kyu. Just how big was the game?
Thirdly, what ever happened to Kyuhyun's letter? Did it ever reach Ryeowook? but i doubt it, Ryeo would've gone crazy (in a good way) about it after Kyu's confession, esp since he was starting to realize just how much the man had meant to him. So im guessing Siwon found out about it and interfered making sure it didn't reach Ryeowook? hence, he forged a reply and gave that to Kyu instead.
Fourthly, still regarding Kyu's letter, when he went to Ryeowook's hometown and love confessions were exchanged, he did mention about the letter and the supposed reply, surely that raised questions in Ryeowook's head, but why didn't he ask about them? he only processed about how the CD got to Kyuhyun but failed to question about the letters.
Fifthly, why was Dae-jung in their care? It was mentioned of them as godparents, but what happened to his real parents, why was the kid under Kyuwook's care? Also, was little Hyungsik a surrogate baby, or was he adopted? Appa Kyu was just too cute :))
Sixthly, i got a little confused cause in the prequel, Hyungsik was in his senior high school year and Ryeo a freshman college, so i figured he was gone soon after school started, cause it was summertime when they decided to move in together, and were only together for a few months. BUT, in the sequel, why did it say it's only been 4 years since Hyungsik left? I mean if you counted Ryewook's college years, which i assumed was 4 years, then he started working right away after graduation, and it had been 3 years since he started working for Kyu, shouldn't that be at least 7 years since Hyungsik was gone?
Seventhly, If the bracelet that Ryeowook gave to Kyuhyun was the same one as the one Hyungsik gave, what significance did the writings "Do You See What I See" had on Kyuhyun? How did the engraving connect to their love story in some ways?
Lastly, as silly as it may seem, how did Ryeowook party with the girls that had his eyes filled with horror and disgust? :DDDDD HAHAH poor Wookie :D

But really, I enjoyed the 2 stories, and once again THANK YOU for sharing their beautiful love story with us :)

Hopefully this comment won't be too long like the other one.... btw, this will be my 10th comment so FINALLY I can upvote your stories!! You deserve it so fcking much! *spoilers ahead*
Um! Yeah. I. Loved. It. From beginning till the end. Like. I finished it in not even 6 hours. And had only 5 hours of sleep. And miraculously passed the driving exam. Hahahaha.... (you'll be hearing from me often from now on since I'm starting to get too addicted on KW :x oh, and be prepared for a lot of blabbering, my specialty). If you read the comment of mine in Across Time, there was this one point I wanted to talk about a lot. Not gonna spoil that story here so let's keep it in relation with this one. You know how often in TV dramas and books and fictions in general, whenever something baaaaaad happens to one of the two MCs, the other always somehow finds a way to reach them and save them? Well, that so does not happen in life all the time. Like, seriously. So, imagine my mild surprise when throughout the story, KyuWook went from ups and downs and were able to stand up again not only with each others' help, but mainly with the help of other people around them? I loved it so much when Changtoria helped Wook with dealing with Hyungsik's case as well as being there for him when he was at his lowest (while Kyu was still unaware so far away). And thank the flowers in all the world that Wook was quite stable when they met again... true, I would love it if Kyu was there to help Wook too, don't get me wrong... but being pulled up by other people, finding that support somewhere else is SO FRIGGING IMPORTANT I so can't stress that enough.
BUT! There was this one part that bugged me a little... and that was when Kyu was manipulated by Siwon and Wook didn't help him much (despite seeing his personality change)... actually, noone, not even Changmin helped Kyu back then. I was really worried about him, you know? TT.TT Changmin didn't even trust Kyu enough and try to reach him. And still, it actually was Ryeowook who saved Kyuhyun then, because Kyuhyun couldn't stop loving him, couldn't stop wishing to be with him. I'm not sure if Kyuhyun ever realized Wook is the same person who saved him, I thought he did hence he fell in love with him, but after reading the chapter about Kyu realizing his feelings, that thought kinda vanished (or did he realize it then that it was the same person?). Though maybe, they shared more things we didn't see (I mean, who wouldn't get curious about what their loved one was doing in the 4 months you didn't see them and was crazy about them?).
The last thing I'm gonna say.... I was expecting to read about Kyuhyun trying for Ryeowook since day one and then was pleasantly welcomed by them already living together xD the first ~~15 chapters were so damn fluffy I might need to screenshot them or something to read when I have too much time xD Thank you for writing this piece!

Chapter 52: I can't believe I just read whole thing, 50 chapters, in a row, straight, with no break at all, in less than one day. And my national exam is next week. Ah fk, my eyes are burning now from staring at my phone for too long. I'm a mess and I'm suffering from all these feels you've given me through this story.

Thank you for writing this amazing story. I especially loved the beggining parts of the story. Secretary Ryeowook dealing with fussy Boss Kyuhyun was a great delight to read. Best concept ever.

The one part that i have a problem with was that Kyuhyun never found out that his past saviour with the initials "R" or "L" was Ryeowook. I was really looking forward to that part and wished we got some closure on that.
