Finally, Spring Blooms When I'm with You ends.
What started with a little idea got weaved into a tale of Tsubaki and Ren. Even though there were times I went on hiatuses as I was afraid of straying from the actual storyline, this story remains close to my heart until now.
It begins and ends as to how I conjured in my mind.
At the time I started writing, I just wanted to write a story about a young lady who met a young man, fell in love, got separated, forgotten about him and met him again.
And, even though I still didn't have a concrete storyline or plot at that time, I already know how I wanted to end it, like how you've read in the last chapter.
It's bittersweet and I admit that writing the last chapter made me cried a few times but, I still want to end it in this way.
Tsubaki and Ren fell in love, walked on their life journey side by side until one of them has to go first.
No matter how reluctant we are, we have to admit that in the unexpected of times, someone dear to us would leave us first, sometimes without any signs.
Tsubaki and Ren's journey ends here, as well as Shouko and Kyoya's journey in The Ocean Beneath Her Feet.
I will focus on my new book next, As the Wind Blows Your Scent to Me. Unlike my two previous books, this one isn't based on the amnesia trope. I plan to try making my new leads slowly fall in love as they spend more time together.
For the readers who love Spring Blossom When I'm with You, thank you so much. You have my utmost gratitude.
The one thing that drove me to finish this book even after my first hiatus that took nearly five months was you guys. Whenever I read the comments asking when would I continue the story, they gave me motivation and inspiration.
You make me believe that there are readers who would love my tales.
I will continue to work hard and present a good story to you guys.
Lots of love,
hansora

A/N: One of my loyal readers privately request a more happy ending for Tsubaki and Ren. I agreed that the original ending could leave sad feelings for you. I save the original ending in draft so if there's anyone who wants to read it, feel free to leave me a message on my Instagram @hansora_author. I'm sorry for the inconvenience I've caused. Believe me, even until now I myself still cried over the original ending :')
