Shachou to Hisho, Ai no Shoumei
Well! That pulled at the heartstrings. Third story of the first couple, beware. It's hard and it'll make me bawl again, but omg, it was good. (And it's still a happy ending.) Second, childhood friends. I love how it wasn't that hard, that they regretted losing the time, but recognized some of it had to happen that way. I liked their relationship. Third was hard. Good, but hard. They both had such a hard time and I felt so sorry for both of them. This one made me tear up too. Great ending. So happy. These are definite rereads. Like the other I've read, wonderful stories. (Story 1: pages 1 - 75) Hot secretary and jealous president. (Story 2: pages 76 - 129) More interesting than the first. An art director and photographer finally acknowledge feelings they've held for years. (Story 3: pages 130 - 211) Machiya Hatoko has so much insight into the heart, and this story about two very lonely and alienated men — one the victim of abuse, the other, a man who isolated himself from love because of tragedy — who open up to each other in kindness and, so, find true love, is one of the best romances I've ever read. A story like this is so beautiful, it might even heal some readers.

Well. I loved this one. It made me tear up in a few places and I just wanted to hug Yato so hard. Poor thing! I'm SO happy about how it worked out. I'd have loved to see even more of them. <3

Okay, it was cute, but I had a couple of problems with it. First, no one explained to Sora *why* it was a bad thing to say they were together. I totally get not wanting to have sex with the 'rents around, but (and maybe this was the tsundere part of him?) it felt like he pushed Sora away a little too much. And the ending was good that Sora came back, but it still felt like the other guy didn't really accept it completely. For the second one, as someone pointed out in the comments, the blonde guy never actually said anything about loving the salaryman. He just kept saying the other guy would fall in love with him, but nothing about him loving the first guy.
