Wait! snif, snif, this story is so heart breaking but at the same time adorable. The ending...awesome! It gathered the whole meaning of waiting and the so awaited reward...patience it's a virtue. Well, totally agree with Keith your last reviewer before me and I guess it is like a common saying says..."If you love someone so much, let him/her go. If one day he/she comes back then, he/she is yours. But if he/she never comes back then, he/she never was yours to begin with" Sorry, I know I'm not quoting exactly the words but I learned it many years ago in Spanish so I'm not sure if my translation is fair enough...but you get the idea, I hope : ) Thank you for keeping Shizuma & Nagisa together I really love this couple they are one of my favorites. Anyway, I'm glad to see that you are back into writing that gives me hope that probably one day I will find another SP or MSGM fiction written by you...I'm so looking forward to it. Well good luck to you at work and with your many things going on. I live in Miami so drop me a note whenever you are free. I always welcome a good cup of coffee and a good chat...that is very relaxing and uplifting. Bye

I just got done reading your story and i have got to say i really enjoyed both the theme as well as the overall story about what had happened and how nagisa had been just barly getting by through the times and how even though shizuma had basicly thrown nagisa away due to her wanting for koari she still came back at the end to reunite with nagisa and give a meaningful ending to the story and even though it might have been unintentional i believe it also had a bit of advise for those who have always longed for someone else for the fact that if you truly love someone sometimes its better to wait for the one you love than to try and force yourself to love another and make both your lives more or less a lie. Again i really enjoyed reading your fic and i look forward to reading more of your work if its posted.

glad shizuma came to her senses. :) nice one-shot.

Love it.
I just knew Shizuma would come back n__n Those two can't live without eachother.

It is depressing that they actually broke up in the beginning of the story.. But hell, the ending more than make up for it. I love shizuma/nagisa pairing! ^.^

Yep I think you accomplished your goal. Because the beginning made me depressed since despite the fact that Shizuma and Nagisa have already gone through so much, they ended up parting.

But the ending made up for it so I am satisfied :)

ouch! shizuma's reasons for leaving nagisa was unfair. but whoever said that life is fair and easy? thanks for posting... post more soon...

wonderful story. i felt so sad when i read that shizuma ran away from nagisa cause of kaori. it must hurt a lot. well at least she did it in this story and not in real. i couldn't live seem them stay apart. but even though a year had passed since they took their own paths nagisa stayed faith to shizuma and waited for her. two thumbs up for her. they are meant for each other. i can't believe that shizuma came back. i almost wanted to shout from happiness. she still loves her. and why not? she just needed some time i guess. but now they are together again. nice work my friend. it really impressed me.

aw is all i can say great story
