I'm Sorry It Was You

I was used to all this; faking pleasantries. This wasn’t my first time, and I knew it wouldn't be my last. Saying goodbye was another thing I was pretty great at. For about as long as I could remember, I'd been jet-setting around the world. Never to move schools before, but I didn't really think that was an important factor at all. My closest of friends gathered around me in a tight circle, each wanting to hug me and wish me the best after making me promise to stay in touch. None of them knew where I was really going, but I wasn't too fussed about telling them either. After all, it was private business.

My name is Lee Mira and today is my last day at the most prestigious international school in Korea. I liked it here; it was comforting and familiar. I knew who I was here. I had many friends and even a boyfriend-like-figure here in a place where your lineage was equally as important as any other factor of your being. Personality was all but disregarded: guess that’s why I had so many friends. In a place like this, a child’s parents were the only way they could hope to make any friends at all. 

It made sense to me why I was only a little saddened at saying goodbye to these people. It’s not like I didn’t like them, it’s more like I wasn’t sure whether they liked me or my father’s name. There was really only a handful I trusted at all.

Sighing, I pretended to be wiping a tear away, "Promise you’ll write!" I made them all agree to this. Good. The ball was out of my court, but I doubted any of them actually would.

I turned and saw my boyfriend-like-figure; a very, very handsome boy who, despite our parents setting us up a long time ago, I was very fond off.  He was the only person here who I considered to be a real friend. We were more a 'couple' for the purposes of securing

Chapter 38: Came back to this chapter after just having finished this story a few minutes ago, because the writing in this chapter is probably my favourite. I've never read a story with such delicate yet detailed kisses before and the writing just amazes me to no end.



I personally think that the delicateness of the kisses and the touches they share sort of describes them in a way. It's like they tipoe amongst each other, especially in this chapter, but are starting to realise that their footsteps needn't be calculated or uncertain, they can be more confident and understood.

I don't know if that made any sense lol so swiftly moving on. I came over here from EXO Fanfic Gems (plus other fandom pearls) and I'm so glad I did. Korekrypta mentioned when they were describing this book that you took a cliche trope and made it your own and I honestly couldn't agree more.

The descriptions you had for every scene, the realistic 1st person POV, just everything was so well written and well executed that you got me to read the whole thing, which is rare because I usually avoid stories that have more than 30 chapters unless I absolutely must know what happens.

You know, it's so easy to take a trope and come up with a story because of how many examples and references are out there but you made this story so completely your own. There was humorous banter (which is the best sort of banter, really), lovable character dynamics (I personally loved Mira's relation with her grandparents, it was so wholesome), interesting yet realistic events (never read about plate shopping before but I loved it) and best of all, one of the best romantic buildups I've read on asianfanfics.

Although I would have definitely loved seeing more of them as a couple because they didn't last very long considering how things turned out around the time of their hs graduation, this is probably the first story that has kept me so hooked even though the concrete, physical displays of love were in much lesser number in comparison to the looks and subtle touches of love.

It's rare to find someone who can do that well, so I end up reading books that have the first kind of love but yeah, I loved the way you wrote this relationship. It was so new and I admire your writing style a lot.

To wrap up my incredibly long comment, I'll answer your question from the last chapter, my favourite character is Mira, just for the amount of sheer character development she shows. She is amazing and deserves everything in the world. (Plus come on, angry little gnome sounds like just the sort of friend I would love to have in my life.)

Chapter 61: What I love the most in this story is at the end, they are doing what they really want, not because of the parent.

Beakhyun is always my favourite from the start till the end lol
