Almost but not quite

This story was so close to me liking it, but every element lacked something vital. It was a strange/interesting story, but the lack of development past the first few chapters made it boring and repetitive. The romance was almost believable, but the lack of reasoning behind their "love" made it seem more like friends playing than anything. The translation almost made sense...oh who am I kidding? I was hanging on a thread of comprehension the entire time. Btw- did the dad ever end up getting that job? After 6 months, I started to worry a bit...
