Now I feel like eating cheese tarts.. hahaha.. Ohmo being very Ohno here ne~
Thanks for the story!

It's a relief you feel Ohno is Ohno enough in here. I had such a hard time writing him in this fic. >_< But I am so fond of Ohba lately so I couldn't resist.

Thanks a lot for reading!

Hwaaa cute ohbaaa,,i laughed when i imagined ninoxaiba confrontation in real life xD aiba might be sweating and shivering in the corner
Several months ago there was cheese tart/cheese cake booming in my city ,reading this fic reminded me long queue i went for a piece of cheesetart/cheesecake eventhough im not a big fan of that cake *but sumhow im craving for one now x3
Thanks for writing and sharing ~

LoL you had the most apt image there! Nino is pretty scary to begin with, and protective!Nino is certainly scarier. Poor Aiba 😆

It's similar here in my country with cheese tart/cheese cake shops too, especially when it just opened. Even now, the line still can be quite long. This story actually helped motivate me to be in line for the tarts. And the tarts motivated me to finish this story in return. 💕 I guess it's a strange way to write a fic. But it's sure fun (and yummy!)

Thanks so much for reading and commenting 😘

You are so kind. I am very happy that you love this story. And I completely agree, we need more Ohba stories 💕 I also want to read more Ohba ;)

Thank you so much for your comment. I really appreciate it.

Ohhhh I loved that, dear ❤❤❤ (I am sorry that it took me so long to read it, but I was really busy, now I catch up everything.)

The pace of the story is sooooo good, it's so calm and partly sad, but in the end they found each other. It's so sweet how Aiba followed Ohno ❤❤

Now I want tarts 😋 I am hungry *lol*

Thanks so much for this wonderful story dear ❤😍😘

Thank you so much, my dear for reading and commenting on this. Seriously, you would not be able to imagine how happy I am with your comment, especially because you felt that this story is "calm and partly sad". When I wrote this, I felt the story is quite sad. Not super, tear-jerking sad. More like underlying-tone sad. Even though it's mostly from Aiba's POV, this is more like an Ohno story. And he is not a happy man. I think Ohno here is quite lonely and sad. Even when he feels happy (like when he's with Aiba), he does not believe it's real or it's going to be with him forever. I feel so bad for him. However, I am not sure whether it comes out right from the way I wrote this story. Hence, I am so very happy that you can feel it.

Thanks again, dear. * hugs*

Oh, I really liked this!! Sorry I'm being random and commenting on your fic months after it was posted ^^;;

I'm so happy they ended up together in the end! I really loved the quiet scenes and how they influenced each other over all the times that they spent with each other, the quiet Saturday afternoons. :)

Also I'm craving cheese tarts now too hehe!

Thanks so much for sharing~!!<3

Hehee... It's never too late to comment :D I am so glad you came across this fic and decided to read it. I am even happier that you enjoy the story too. It is a bit slow-burn and pretty low-key, so I am always worried readers may find it uninteresting. It's a relief you like this <3

The cheese tart craving seems to be the side-effect of anyone interacting with this fic - writing and reading. I had lots of cheese tarts while writing this too (for motivation purpose, of course!)

Thank you so much for reading and commenting. I really appreciate it.
