And so, the book is finished. I can't even describe how sad, and happy I am to have finished the book. I'm so happy to have finally written a full book all by myself, and I'm devastated since I know, Aiko's and Hisato's story is finished. It makes me almost cry. I really want to thank everyone who has been reading this book, and keeping up with some chapters who were written badly and maybe rushed. I really couldn't have made it without you all. I really thank you. This book started three years ago, simply as a stress reliever. And now, here we are, with 77 chapters and so many reads. I couldn't even imagine it when I first started writing this novel, that I would get this many people reading it, and this many chapters. I'm so amazed, and really proud of myself.

I remember my friends' faces when I told them how many reads I got. It was one of the greatest moments in my life, and I achieved that all thanks to you guys!

If I write any more, I'll just start rambling. I would like to thank you all again, from the bottom of my heart. I hope you have loved this book as much as me, and that you will maybe check out my other books(I'm writing this new one called the Genie Who Lost her Lamp. Go check it out!!)

I love you all! Very much! Thank you so much! I hope we see each other again in other books and other stories! But for now, the curtain will close on The Emperor's Rose.

The End
