normally i wouldn't read something short like this... but i think you did a good job with it... :)

It was so sad

Normally I don't read stories under about 800 words, but I did this one & I liked it. I think Karin & Toshiro would work better as friends too; after all, he's 40-50 years older than she is, while she's aging normally. In another 100 years maybe . . . I liked how they were mature about it; it seemed much more in character than them flinging themselves around melodramatically declaring, "I can't live without you!"
