This was really beautiful ;A;
Despite the angst and the breakup and the heart-wrenching-ness of this fanfic, I really enjoyed all of it! Kimin is so rare, and to find such a well-written one is even harder~ Your plot is unique and, really, just painfully gorgeous!
The ending was definitely sweet! I can totally imagine Henry being the 10 yr old boy that Kimin will adopt. lol. And props to Kibum for being so smart~ I really like how you weaved in the red umbrella and Henry and Kimin's inner and outer struggles and just everything. Lol. I'm totally spazzing. Sorry ^-^
The handprints and painting and the sofa and the way that Kibum always gave in to Sungmin's wants tugged at my heart... and the way that Sungmin loved Kibum and cared and just understands Kibum to the core all the while feeling as if he was killing him made my heart clench. This is such a bittersweet fic *sigh* I loved it! (sorry for the long, spazz-filled comment >.>) Thanks for sharing!

I like long, spazz-filled comments. Hehe.

I'm really glad that you liked it and that you liked my characterization. :)

AEWENHGFLKGLUCKSH!!
I was like ehhh, Henry's porbably going to have some lame, minor friend role, but that was soooo [insert more keyboard spam] cuteeee!!
Are they adopting Henry, or does he have parents?
Cause it's like a win-win situation for everyone now. Henry will get to live there~ (Does the cat get to too?)
It's really pretty apartment to live in
Though big places make me scare to leave the bedroom at night OTL
I think pale pastel is best! That's what I want for my prom dress rather than bright shinee colors.

Pah, lame minor friend roles...Henry's too good for that. XD Oh yes, they shall be adopting Henry. I suppose Kibum will just have to let the cat come too.

I'm glad that you liked it.

“I like you as my teacher. You can speak English.”----> I rofled at this.
i find it really cute that Kibum asked Henry to bring his red umbrella. I cannot even fathom hat oilers happened if Henry left it. hahahahah
looking forward to more of your fics.

i find it really cute that Kibum asked Henry to bring his red umbrella. I cannot even fathom what would've happened if Henry left it.
Sorry about that. autocomplete was on.

Oh my god.
It never happens, but you almost got me crying. Tears remained in my eyes stupidly, but the feeling was there ... The words burst forth in my head, I don’t know where to start.
First of all, thank you for writing about Kibum and Sungmin. This pairing is definitely far too rare... yet I think they go well together. I think Kibum was perfect in that role. And Sungmin ... <3
The most painful in this story is surely, contrary to what we read usually, the apathy of the one and other. No arguments. But no outpouring of feelings either. Each of their thoughts, when they expect that the other will decide to break, is a throbbing pain. They know they must break but don’t even have the courage and rely on fate. The despair is really heart-rending.
My favourite detail is definitely the paint with their hands entwined on the floor. Beautiful <3

^_^ I'm really glad you liked it and that I protrayed the emotions well enough for you to be moved.

This pairing is much too rare. There needs to be more KiMin...and more happy ones. *looks at her other KiMin fics* yeah...happy endings...

But really, I'm glad you liked it.
