i have no expectations as i read this. i didn't really read the summary at the beginning because i was so fixated by its beautiful cover and title, summer, lemon, and overlay. what an interesting one.
the story was so obvious of how they want to make the readers' feel. it was so obvious from the very beginning and it was so heavy to wonder how it will end. of a girl who wants nothing but to die, hiring a stranger who will read her farewell letter at her funeral. konno was so ready to die. when the summer ends, she will leave the world, and leave yunimaru to speak for her at her funeral. they spent the summer together and it's undeniably became their bestest summer ever.
i love every bits of moments konno and yunimaru spent together. from the cafes, ordering lemon, to the karaoke room, yunimaru teaching konno how to hit high note, to them traveling together with the train stopped at the last stop and spent the night together though it was not a pleasant place, to light a firework, taking pictures, and being happy. they were genuinely so happy with each other it made my heart hurts. the time they spent together in their houses, doing grocery shopping together, and in the bathub. it made konno happy with the summer, it made her smile and laugh, genuinely so happy.
but it didn't make her stopping her plan. she was always so ready to die and the day comes. it was so sad, so heartbreaking, and i cried a lot during that part. when yunimaru ran to konno's place and cried for her because konno was so ready to k-ll herself. konno said, i wanted to know your real name. in hope for someone to cry for her, and yunimaru cried for her. the tears fell on konno's face and she thought, she chose the right person. i don't know i'm just so sad, everything is heartbreaking, but everything is also so beautiful. i love the ending. i love how konno realize that she found the right one for her and i love how yunimaru confessed to her. to wants to be with her. she said she will make konno's place an eternal summer for her, she said she will make sure there's always lemon chuuhai in the fridge and will stock up on fireworks, and they can have salts in the bath every night, she will makes herself useful for konno so konno won't leave her... it was so sad to read that part... and i'm just so glad konno gave herself another chance to live. she gave herself and yunimaru ㅡ nishijimasaki ㅡ another chance to enjoy their life to the fullest, to spend their summer happily, and live their life happily.
this is more like writing a diary of how much i love this piece. this one wins my heart big times. it was truly so beautiful. heartwrenchingly beautiful, heartbreaking, yet so, so beautiful. the ending is beautiful. i love saki and konno so much. i hope they live a happy life, together, forever :)♡ be happy my dear. you two deserve it so much. deserved it the most.
