God, I don't think I could ever express all the emotions I hold for this story. Thank you for another wonderful chapter! The moment JK decided he's going for the surgery and the humility and acceptance that followed hit me like a truckful of bricks and felt like the easiest, most serene lunghful of air all at the same time. What a full-circle moment this was... I'm so incredibly grateful to have found the story all the way back when you started posting mine!, what a journey! I feel like I'm watching my friends grow up and settle, my heart is so warm for these characters. Thank you so incredibly much! This story will forever hold such a special place in my heart.
