Hello everyone, peponi here! I've changed my name again, sorry.
Another thing I'm deeply sorry about is how I've put this story on hiatus for nearly four years now? I never thought that would happen but somehow, I gradually began to write less and less over the years, until I just stopped altogether. I know how upsetting it can be when an author just abruptly stops updating for awhile (and four years too…) and that it is even more upsetting when the writer leaves without a word as well. I'm sorry for not saying anything before I put this story and myself on a now four-year hiatus. It may be useless to say this (and I don't blame you if you don't believe me) since it's been so long but…I do very much want to continue this story, until its end, as well as writing more stories! Unfortunately, I'm not saying that I am going to continue this story at the moment because I can't-in order to continue, I need to catch up on this series and reread "East" again. In order to do that, I need time-which is something I don't have right now due to the fact that I am busy with school/university preparations.
I made a promise that I would finish this story and I'm not planning on breaking that promise. Again, I don't blame you if you no longer trust my words. If all goes well with my university preparations, I should have time a year or so from now to continue writing. I know; another year is a very long time. However, until then, I must continue working on my preparations.
I'm deeply sorry for disappointing and upsetting readers of this story. I hope that you are all doing well and I shall return with another update if anything else happens.
Thank you very much for your support, and I do hope to return in a year!
