A Father's Legacy

Blurb: If I love you, and you happen to love me too, when your hair is messy, I'll smile and brush it back for you. Then my hand will linger in your hair for a few more seconds. But if I love you, and you happen not to love me, when your hair is messy, I'll only gently tell you that your hair is messy. This is probably the purest view of love: if we love each other, we'll walk hand in hand until old age; if we miss our chance, I'll still wish you well. Haruki Murakami Love begins without warning and deepens with every passing day; fate brings us together, and our feelings are far from shallow. A realistic drama, with no rebirth and no transmigration. Just the tragic story of an uncle who raises a little wolf, only to be devoured by him. Reader's guide (content warnings): 1. The pursuer and the pursued are not related by blood. This is the author's self-indulgent work, so historical accuracy enthusiasts, please stay away. 2. A timid older man as the pursued x a hot-tempered, tsundere pursuer. Happy ending, no switching partners, with a few scenes involving a scummy pursuer and a masochistic pursued. If that's not your thing, please don't read. No personal attacks. 3. This is a writing exercise. It was previously published to a small audience and is now complete. If it seems familiar, don't doubt yourself: this silly author really did write it. 6. If you love the story, I love it too [shamelessly~]. Why not add me to your collection while you're at it~ Theme:
