    Man, I love cheesecake - next to all the other amazing foods. :P Wondrous, stellar, superb, brilliant, suspenseful, and full of emotion story! When I finished it I found myself smiling, and smiling, and smiling. I loved the story! Great job, Journey. Well that was certainly a "journey" for Jae, huh.
