That's why it is a female rather than a male. You said it yourself, "women are nastier than men when love is to be concerned." Rokuro may not notice his feelings now if it was a male, because he is still in the "do everything he can to get out of marrying and having a child" set of mind. He doesn't think of Benio romantically, yet, so a male rival would be pointless.

True, but still I'm always a bit scared, I mean like:" I hope the athor doesn't mess up. I hope it won't be too much or too exaggerated or doen't boring, tiring. I hope the third party will give up after watching their current relationship (only said when the two mc are to get together or together)". I'm too much of a romantist!!! But I know they will be together so it's ok XD
Aye...why did they have to introduce a third wheel?
