Author's note.
Even though I know ff.net posted up yesterday that a/n were no longer allowed, I weighed it, and think I need to post one anyway.
I am so very sorry for the lateness of the chapter. I have been hospitalized twice since my last update, the most recent time being last night. There will now be two more chapters, plus the epilogue, b/c I'm going to need to get back into the feel of the characters. I really want to write it, but it is impossible for me to do so while both very ill and full of morphine. (This letter is being dictated).
I am so terrified that you will lose interest in my story. Please, please don't abandon me. I am so very sorry that I can't get it posted, but I promise that I will do it as soon as I can.
I hope that I will soon be well enough to satisfy you.
Thank you for your time, and again: please don't give up on me. I'll be back, I promise.
Reika
P.S. To any ff.net staff, I apologize for knowingly breaking the rules. I felt I needed to post an a/n so that my readers could know why no new chapters have been added to an otherwise quickly updated story. I will remove it after I am well, if necessary. I just couldn't simply let my readers hang on, wondering why the story never got updated. Again, I apologize.
