Family Secrets by Tiegrsi

Preamble

Hello! This is a story in progress. I hope to add at least one new chapter a week.


When I first started this story, I had no idea about japanese culture or most of the words used in the dialog of many mangas and stories. To help out others who have similar problems, here is a list of all the words you might find. (If anyone sees anything wrong or missing, please let me know so I can correct it!)
