This is like, the saddest thing I've ever read in my life. Your description made it so real in my head and I keep imagining Kyuhyun, getting older and not knowing it, always wishing to come back with his hyungs--without knowing that it will never happen.
I felt my eyes getting wet when reading this:
Before he sleeps, he takes a look inside the logbook.
Chicken scratch writing litters the pages in crooked lines. June 19th - Donghae was here. August 3rd - Donghae was here. September 15th - Donghae was here.
Donghae has only been in his room today.
Donghae, how could you stand all of this?!
And then when I read the last paragraph... I cried so fcking hard that my head felt heavy after.
Sorry for the long comment, I just wanna tell you how I really really love this fanfic (and your other fics). ILYSM, keep writing KyuHae♥! /hugs ;3;

Thank you so much for reading! Writing this was painful for me, too, but at the same time kind of cathartic. The logbook was a last-minute addition but wow, that really resonated with a lot of people. And as for the last paragraph... that was painful to write. ;__;
I'm sorry, bb. Of course you're all better now, but still, sorry for making you sob. ;_; thank you, ilysm2! ♥

this is gorgeous and heartbreaking and creative all at once. the premise of kyuhyun being stuck on one day is really hard to write, but you brought it, totally. initially i didn't get it, but by the third or fourth section i was like oh my god i get it and this is painful and everything that followed just killed me, the logbook and donghae's chicken scratch handwriting and kyu telling wook that he'd be back tomorrow and pluto not being a planet anymore and his nightmare and wavering voice and just everything. you wrote it so subtly, without over-dramatizing the emotions, and everything came across clear and sad and sympathetic. i particularly love the last bit, because it brings home the reality of kyu having stayed in that state for so many years, thinking everyone will be there to welcome him the next day, and idk it's just really sad and my heart. is so hurt.
thank you so much for writing this beautiful thing ♥ it touched me so much.

Whereas Ryeowook's phone call and Donghae's log book made me sad, the plaster ring where the mirror used to be makes me wonder who actually removed it...
tl;dr You made me cry. I love you.

Who removed the mirror is a minor detail, but I'm thinking that it's Kyu's sister.
Thank you! ILU2 ♥
