Wow, a higher percentage than I'd even thought. It's such an odd concept to me that I figured it would be no more than 2-3%.

Lovely chapter once again :). When saki rang and she was crying I remembered about her father taking her somewhere. My first thought was quite possibly an arranged marriage candidate, until another reviewer mentioned tests. Both could/would in her being dismayed. Either would do it. In a way, the f...

I can also hardly imagine that her parents would try...

Japan actually has a tradition of this for the dying. Hell, in some areas of Japan they will wed a living person to a dead.

I had a bit of inspiration to write an Epilogue. I'm also in the middle of some minor tweaks to the story, cleaning up a few issues I've since spotted, and taking the feedback from all of you. Epilogue “Are you sure about this?” I ask, fully knowing the answer from the look of determination on her f...

“Relax mom, I’m just staying over at Hisao’s house for Christmas, not going on some extreme hike up a treacherous mountain.”

Ha! This line kept me laughing for far longer than I should have.

Well written!

*slow clap*
Woooooooooooooow

Now this was nice to wake up to.

Given that the hospital he is in is quite a way from Hisao's hometown it's a bit unlikely that his parents can spend so much time there over several days... or that Iwanako would be able to visit him there. Not sure if you're planning on giving an explanation for that. It's the kind of thing that i...

Author Notes:, For Rika’s condition, I selected Hermansky–Pudlak Syndrome. HPS can cause such things as albinism, hemophilia, organs failing to develop properly (including hypoplastic left heart syndrome), kidney issues, and respiratory failure. I can point to the incomplete Rika fanfic "Flutte...

The Pool of Tears “Are you sure you want to do this?” I ask her. Rika nods. “I didn’t know he existed, but I’m alive thanks to him. I have to do something.” Around us, the silence of the cemetery stretched into eternity. Not being a typical day of mourning, the place was relatively empty. Armed with...

You know... Albinism doesn't really play into compatibility regarding organ transplants. In fact in some countries organs of albinos are much sought after becaute of the (irrational) belief that they can cure HIV... Albinism lacks certain enzymes, particularly several forms common in Asia. Makes th...

You see, i didn´t like this chapter too much.Because you gotta remember that Hisao is an eighteen year old boy who is too dense for his own good, and now he came off witty and acertive af talking to Rika´s father, and i was like "wait who is this guy". Yeah, re-read it yesterday and I was...

Well... that's awkward.

The Mirror Cracked Looking up at the doorway up the next flight of stairs, I hesitate. Is this the right thing to do? Or worse, can I do it? I have to do it. Rika asked me to do it for her. And she’s right, I’m the only person who can do it for her. Before I even move to climb the stairs, the door a...
