Chapter 57: You owe us no explanation at all. But, it's really kind of you to do so. Everyone's been going through a storm of reality right now. Currently, my grandmother is in the hospital with stage 3 cancer. Although there isn't a "great" time for anyone to fall ill, now is an especially awful time. Please don't neglect your personal healing for the sake of this contest! My heart is with you, Emily :)

Chapter 57: Hey, Emily. I'm so sorry to hear about the losses in your family. My condolences. I was getting worried as well when I haven't heard from you in a while. Thank you for the update and there's no need for the apologies, my friend. Family and real life comes first. I hope you're doing well too! Take care, and have fun reading the rest of the entries!

P.S. That quote at the end definitely holds true. Hang in there. <3
