in a Heartbeat Author's Note...

Dear Readers,

Hello.

First of all, I know most of you are in doubt whether or not the contents of this story is really based on actual events. And I know that most of you find it hard to believe that these things actually happened to me. My answer is, YES, the contents of this story was really based on the things that happened to me in real life. And no, if you think I was lucky or everything was exciting, personally, I don’t think so.

The timeline for this story started on June 2007 because that’s the opening of classes here in the Philippines. Yes, I’m from the Philippines and I merely used Korean names and places in order to protect the identity of the real people portrayed in this story.

Secondly, I wrote this story, not to make you guys think that I’m lucky or to make you envious of what I have been through. I wrote this story because I wanted to remember every memory that the real Chan Sung gave me from the moment we met. This will be the last time I’m going to remember everything about us. As soon as this story is finished, I’m going to move on with my life and try to live without him.

This story is very personal for me and no, I’m not looking for fans or for a bit of sympathy. I published this story in order to touch other people’s lives with my own. If you doubt whether this is true, I’m not going to convince you to believe otherwise. After all, why would you trust someone you don’t even know, right?

But above everything else, please believe me when I say that Park Dae Hee really, really, really loved Moon Chan Sung… even to the point of disrespecting herself and draining her pride.


Regards,
Shattered teardrops

  3. hi...i just read your story at soompi....wow....i really cried...i was so touched with your story. to tell you honestly i really really undrstand how you feel...

    are you by any chance shatered_teardrops from LU? the author of capturing the cassanova and keeping the cassanova? if you are id like to say im a really big fan of yours and reading your life story made me realize all the experiences you had for you to be able to make such beautiful stories....if you are a different person then, i still am very impressed with how you put your life story into words....

    reading your fic even when u were using korean names just somehow made me feel that you are a filipina and when i found out from the note you posted on a chapter i somehow felt closer to you in a way...hehehe im a filipina too and the experience you shared with all of us really really touched me. i salude you for being able to hold on and move on and not succumb to depression, i could just imagine the pain that you had to go through...

    allow me to say this...

    i think chan sung was just very immature but i felt that what he had for you was real. and you also lost yourself in the process of your relationship, but i think it was better for you two to have broken up or else both of you would have ended up destroying the love you had for each other...i think this break up was meant to be for the time being so that both of you would grow more to become better individuals....as they say, in order for a pencil to work properly it has to be sharpened when it became too dull...perhaps this thing that happened to you is like the sharpening process that would make you a better person

    but i think somehow reading your story....i kind of feel that someday...maybe you and chan sung would get back together...im sorry if what im saying brings back painful memories that by now you must have already forgotten or overcome...nut i really feel that one day you'll find a way to each other again. and im pretty sure that guy has to go through hell to prove a lot to you, i sooo support you giving him hell before getting back with him! lol...your situation kinda reminds me of the move ONE more Chance with john loyd and bea, have y seen it? despite how much love they had for each other bea just had to end it because she was losing herself in the process of loving him...somehow it kinda reminds me of you. i really really salude you for being strong, for having the courage and strength to hold on and endure the pain, and most of all for taking a risk at love.

    that guy needs to grow up and settle a lot of issues he has with himself. until he does that, you must not get back with hiM! LOL
    heheheeh

    i hope this message doesnt offend you or anything...i just really wanted to express my thanks to you for making such a beautiful story and touching us all in the process...

    your an amzing writer, more power to you! =)

  4. Hi I just finished reading your story... and though it's probably been awhile since that time... or maybe it's not seeing as it only began in 2007... I don't know... ><"... that isn't that long ago... gahh straight to the point then.

    Although I can't say that I know how you feel because I really don't, I've never been in a situation like that... but I have to say the fact that you've shared this story to a whole heap of random is really brave of you.

    Hope you all the best with your future and the future love to come :D The dude wasn't right to have changed you... and it wasn't right for you to let him change you, but it is your past that you've learnt from... And I too have learnt something from it too.

    <3
