    Summary

    In one world, Kim Dokja listened to his mother and read the story again. He devoured the same words over and over again until they were embedded into his retinas, until the stories made a home in his brain and stayed there. He consumed books like they were his lifeline and they gave him the motivation to live just one more day, until he found something else worth living for.

    In that world, Kim Dokja found a family that he loved and a family that loved him back, but only after years of suffering and heartbreak and constant sacrifices that he was always happy to make. In that world, Kim Dokja may have been an only child, but he found his family and he was, first and foremost, a reader.

    But this is not that world.

    In which Kim Dokja learns to hate reading, but he still manages to find his protagonist.

    Summary

    He can see it now. A woodstone cottage with a crackling hearth. A cozy pot roast on the dinner table. There are clovers and sweetpeas sweeping the garden bed, some that rise along the walls and some that are plucked by the hands of their tiny children. They laugh and play to their heart’s content before running into their parent’s arms, dirty, merry, and full of love.

    It's beautiful. Idyllic in every sense of the word.

    It’s everything she’s ever wanted. 

    And they’re all the things he can not give her.

    (Or: Hanako is a grim reaper, and he falls in love with the same soul. Over and over again.)

    Amane wraps his pinky around Tsukasa's. "Pinky promise."
