Hello everyone! I'm so sorry again, but there won't be an update today. I'm hoping I can update by Saturday or Sunday.
          
          I've been insanely busy lately, and I genuinely just can't squeeze writing into my schedule right now because there's been so much work. Like a lot and I feel like I keep saying this over and over, but I will never stop being grateful to every single one of you.
          
          My heart genuinely feels so warm whenever I see how supportive and patient you guys are with me. It means more than I can properly put into words. You guys deserve so much more, and that's also why I'd rather take my time than half-ass an update just because I feel like I need to post something. I want to give you guys something I'm actually proud of and something that deserves the time I put into it.
          
          I'm truly thankful for every single one of you. Beyond words, honestly. I love you all so, so much. Thank you for being patient with me. (⁠ ⁠◜⁠‿⁠◝⁠ ⁠)⁠♡

I'm so freaking tired. It's been three weeks and we're still so freaking busy. The weather hasn't been helping either, but thankfully, I've finally finished the urgent things I needed to do today, so I can finally sit down and draft the newest chapter of Boy in Route 17.
          
          It's been so long, and I genuinely missed uploading this story so much. I'm so sorry again, everyone. I truly didn't want to take a break for this long, but school has just been too much lately. You know you're exhausted when you get home and you're already falling asleep before you can even do anything else. My classes are also so freaking early, from 7:00 AM to 5:30 PM so haha. That's just amazing, I really love that for me.
          
          So I really hope you guys have a better picture now of why I had to take a break from writing Boy in Route 17. I wasn't trying to disappear or abandon the story. I simply reached a point where I was too exhausted to properly give it the attention it deserves. There's a lot happening in the next chapter, so I really hope I can execute everything properly. It'll also be a long chapter, so I might need around 2 to 3 days to finish everything. I don't want to rush it, especially because there's so much I want to put into this chapter.
          
          Regardless, I'm so, so thankful for every single one of you who stayed and waited patiently. It genuinely means more to me than you know. Take care of yourselves as always. I love you all so much!! (⁠ ⁠◜⁠‿⁠◝⁠ ⁠)⁠♡
          
          

I miss my wife ༼⁠;⁠´⁠༎ຶ⁠ ⁠۝ ⁠༎ຶ⁠༽

Thank you so much for the encouragement, random reader. I'm just so, sooooo happy to wake up and see your comment. I really hope you're proud of yourself for that one.
          
          First of all, I don't want people here spreading hate or negativity. If you don't like any of my stories, then get the fuck out. I'm not dealing with that nonsense.
          
          I didn't ask anyone to wait for me. I didn't want to keep pushing myself to upload Boy in Route 17 because it's simply not helping me right now. I'm literally in the middle of my exams, and the last thing I need is to stress myself out over whether everything I'm writing lines up with the plot and all that.
          
          I'm not generalizing everyone, and I'm genuinely sorry that the rest of you have to hear this. But please, if you're not interested, just leave. No one is forcing you to read, vote, or comment. I'm sharing these stories because I want to. That's it.
          
          You don't have to support me. You can simply read without voting or commenting, and I'll already be happy knowing someone read what I wrote.
          
          I don't need anything from anyone. I just want to share my stories and enjoy writing them.
          
          To everyone who has stayed with me throughout all of this, thank you so, so much. I appreciate you more than I can say. I will update Boy in Route 17 soon, but for now, I'm choosing to maintain my peace.
          
          Thank you again for understanding.

Hello everyone! Based on my recent updates and story notes, you probably already have an idea why I'm pausing Boy in Route 17 for a while.
          
          First of all, I'm not abandoning the story. I still have sooooo many plans for Por and Teetee, but I need some time before continuing Chapter 83.
          
          Lately, I've been in a really bad mood, and my cramps have been making it worse. I tried writing Chapter 83, but my brain just refused to cooperate. There's a lot happening in that chapter, and what I have planned for Teetee and Por is... well, it's bad. Like, really bad.
          
          I'm already emotional, and I'm also ridiculously busy, so I really don't want to force myself to write something that heavy right now. That's why I created Love, Latte.
          
          It's not a replacement for Boy in Route 17. I just wanted something lighter to write while giving myself a break. It's a romcom, it's fluffy, and it's pretty different from what I've written before. Writing it genuinely made me happy. I'd literally write after class just because I was excited about their interactions.
          
          So I'll probably continue updating Love, Latte for now. If you're willing to give it a try, I'd really appreciate it. I promise it's good, at least according to my standards.
          
          As for Boy in Route 17, I don't want to force out a chapter just for the sake of updating. You guys don't deserve a half-assed chapter, and neither do Teetee and Por. I've spent so much time building their story, and I want to give their ending the attention it deserves.
          
          For now, I'm choosing to prioritize myself and write something that makes me happy and don't worry. Teetee and Por will come back. I promise!!!
          
          Thank you so much for being patient with me and for still being here. I'm grateful beyond words. That's it for my yapping. I love you all so muchhh!!

Okay, I'm not even gonna bother making this sound nice because I can barely think properly right now.  My cramps are sooooo freaking bad ༼⁠;⁠´⁠༎ຶ⁠ ⁠۝⁠ ⁠༎ຶ⁠༽
          
          Unfortunately, I am indeed human.  I barely have any progress on Chapter 83 right now. I already have the entire plan figured out, so I know exactly what I want to happen, but actually trying to execute it when my body feels like this. My brain knows what it's supposed to do. My body, however, has decided that absolutely fucking not.
          
          I'll still try my best to get some writing done, but please bear with me if it takes a little longer than usual. Thank you guys as always for being so patient with me and for continuing to support the story. I really appreciate every single one of you. (⁠´⁠ε⁠｀⁠ ⁠)

Hello everyone! There will be no uploads until Saturday or Sunday. 
          
          Our exams are getting really close, and I've been so busy lately that I genuinely can't squeeze writing into my schedule. Our classes start at around 8 in the morning, and our last class... haha... ends at 5:30 PM. (⁠ ⁠ꈨຶ⁠ ⁠˙̫̮⁠ ⁠ꈨຶ⁠ ⁠)
          
          It's brutal. Very, very brutal. And because my house is pretty far from the university, I can't just go home and immediately start writing after class either. By the time I get home, I'm already exhausted and my brain is basically telling me to go straight to bed. 
          
          I'm really sorry for the wait again, everyone. I promise I'm not abandoning this story whatsoever. I still have so much I want to write, and we're literally getting closer and closer to the ending. I'm just really freaking tired afterward. 
          
          This is what happens when you study under a scholarship, you barely pay for anything but you have to sacrifice your soul instead haha... So please bear with me for a few more days. Anywaysssss, thank you sooooooo much for all your patience and support. I genuinely appreciate every single one of you who continues to wait for this story and stick around despite my chaotic update schedule.  See you all this weekend!! Hopefully my brain is functioning by then.
          
          Love you all!! 

Hello everyone! Just a little update about the ending. 
          
          It's coming sooner than everyone probably expected. I don't want to say too much because I don't want to spoil anything, but please prepare your brains because the ending is going to be confusing asf.
          
          I've spent DAYS. Literally DAYS. working on the ending, trying to make everything connect properly and avoiding as many loopholes as possible. I even made an entire PDF document just to keep track of the plot, especially the ending, because there are sooo many things that need to line up. 
          
          It took me hours upon hours just to finalize everything because I kept going back, changing things, questioning things, finding potential loopholes, rewriting things, and then questioning my own decisions all over again HAHAHAHA.
          
          But finally... IT'S DONE. 
          
          I actually have the entire ending figured out now, which is such a relief because there were moments where even I was sitting there like: "What the fuck am I writing?"  So, by the end of that arc, I'm planning to share the document as a separate chapter so everyone can properly understand the plot and how everything connects because trust me, you are going to need it.  
          
          It's been such a long, long journey with these two, and we're finally getting close to the end. I can't believe we're actually nearly there. So let's hang in there a little longer, everyone. We're almost at the end. 
          
          And please pray for my brain because I genuinely don't know how I survived writing this ending HAHAHAHA.

So um... I'm very aware of what I said yesterday, and uh... I'm definitely getting ahead of myself.  I was actually drafting a lot this morning. I was making pretty good progress too, but then by afternoon to evening, I ended up cleaning the house because, y'know... responsibilities. 
          
          And then after that well, blame @wommie for that. We've been chatting for hours straight, and I couldn't finish anything because of them. HAHAHAHA. 
          
          Love you wooms ♡⁠(⁠>⁠ ⁠ਊ⁠ ⁠<⁠)⁠♡ I'm not complaining (⁠◠⁠‿⁠◕⁠)
          
          So yeah... my plans for finishing everything yesterday kind of went out the window.  I'm really sorry again, everyone. Thank you so, so much for continuing to wait patiently for me and for being so understanding with my chaotic schedule. I really appreciate it more than you know.
          
          I'll truly try to get this finished by today. No more promises I can't keep well hopefully. Love you all!! 

I’ll be drafting today, everyone! I’m planning to update tomorrow. I’m so sorry again for making you all wait, but I promise I’ll do my best to get everything drafted today so I can upload tomorrow. Maybe I’ll even manage to upload a double update tomorrow  Although I probably shouldn't get too far ahead of myself, I might jinx it lol
          
          Anyways, thank you all so much for being patient with me and waiting for the next chapter. I’m honestly so excited to finally upload another one for you guys. I hope you’ll enjoy it by then.
          
          Love, love you all!!
