because if Philnaldo continues to treat him like a possession and while Ralph doesn't even know that Phil is in love with him he'll think that he doesn't mean anything to him. So it's like this:
1. Phil is in love with Ralph, but doesn't know how to express it
2. Ralph is in love with Phil, but he makes excuses like it is my duty
3. Ralph hears that Phil is in love with him and his love is mutual
4. Ralph understands why Phil acted like that and he just accepts it as it is
I don't know how good I've explained sorry
What happen the story of raph and philnaldo in chapter 4
