AW!! how could you do that to Sakuno! you need to write another one where he wins a few trophys or whatever he does then comes back cause he realizes he cant live without her! IM SURE YOUD DO GREAT!!(course he still plays tennis)

Good story! Good job describing their feelings and relationships! You almost drove me to tears with the goodbyes.

That was wonderful, even though it was short. The moment was priceless. It's kinda sad for Ryoma to leave but he wants to go pro. Nothing can stop him from achieving it. But the way he stopped Sakuno, by encircling his arms around her was so sweet. Nice of Ryoma to even comfort her. Great one-shot.

Wow. This was perfect. I can see their relationship reaching this point. I flowed well and I love the way it ended. For me, it just doesn't seem possibly for them to have an overly mushy relationship. I loved the simplicity of everything. Thanks for the great story!

wah! (sobs) I hate to think of the day when Ryoma would turn pro and leave..,forever! huhuhuh.., Thank you so much for the awesome story! kawaii!

Please Take care

Love lots,
Lady-Von-Bielefeld:)

wa! so cute! yet sad! love it!

ah~
so cute and bittersweet!
>.<
makes me want to write a ryo/saku fanfic of my own

*claps* Very, very nice, Kei. Though this story is short, there was enough detail and emotion to make this fic very satisfying. I think there was a part where I wasn't breathing, because it was just so sad, and I couldn't wait to see what was coming next. But I still made myself read slowly (I'm sadistic, haha).

A few comments for improvement:
1) Sakuno doesn't have hazel eyes (at least, anime-wise). Hazel eye color is a yellowish-brown or greenish color. Sakuno's eye color might match the color of _hazelnuts_, but those are two different words with different meanings. The only reason why I pointed this out is because I got confused, and thought you meant Ryoma's eyes instead of Sakuno's.

2) Avoid inserting author comments inside the fic. It ruins the flow.

"His hands auto-piloted itself and reached into his own pocket, pulling out a tissue which happened to be there (lucky him), and dabbed Sakuno’s drenched face dry of tears."

Why not just scrap the entire tissue idea, and replace it w/ a handkerchief? Everyone has one in Japan, so it wouldn't seem out of place or lucky to have it on their person.

The hug was really sweet though, and I really liked that part. Given the amount of time that has passed, I can see it happening. The only unsatisfying part of this fic was its bitter sweetness. I would've liked a little more hope for their relationship at the end. Maybe it's there, maybe it's up to the reader to decide, but with a one shot like this, I walked away thinking that this is all RyoSaku will ever have. And that's sad. There's the opportunity to explore what will happen next. You might want to think about that. =)

Just a few more things before I go... Your story summary couldn't have been better. A great hook. Adding this to the C2. Write more fics like this, Kei. You're really improving.

Nya! *sniff* kawaii!*sniff*

aw...*sniff sniff* it's so cute!*sniff*
