Thanks for another great chapter. Love the conversations throughout the story.

Well, I guess we really can't completely trust Google Translate or these kinds of tools haha. I hope I didn't accidentally swear at anyone in Japanese peep Thank you for commenting, I'm glad you liked the dialogue.

Okay, SO super sweet that he remembers himself only as part of her.

Deep down, he's just a married man (even though neither he nor his wife knows that laugh ). I wanted his memory to return partly because of her to follow how this originally happened in ASU. In the end, I felt it turned out a little cheesy, but I hope it wasn't unbearably cheesy lol
