Can you by chance tell me where exactly I need to start reading for the side couple? :'D
I just tried reading and I hardly could stand reading till chapter 10 due to the writing being actual garbage. (And I mean the story flow itself as well as character logic and behavior. All of it is random and lacklusterly done. WTF. It turned into a chore to read within such a short time.)
I know side couples can often be much better but I kinda have my doubts since the writing is generally badly done here. But I would still like to check out the side couple regardless. Can you give me pointers where I should jump in? I don't want to sift through the debris. :')
(Great username btw. I only spotted that at the very end of writing this. X'D)
Girl, I get you, it's absolute garbage and I HATE both the main characters.
The side couple story starts in chapter 19, but you'll have to skip the main couple from time to time cause it's still sprinkled in.
What I like about the side couple is the angst and more of the complexity of the characters, their dynamic seems more realistic, adult, and just relatable to an extent. Both of them have issues opening up, one of them has issues with feeling the need to fill his inner void with meaningless sex (and self sabotage), and trigger warning, there's child SA involved in the backstory.
(Thank you, finally a person who knows what's up hehe :D )
THANK YOU~ <3
I am a sucker for those kinds of stories, so I'll definitely look at their story.
I just finished reading a similar sounding story, aslo realistic but about mental issues more than anything and showing how the main characters settle with their life troubles. It's called Gift by Ichinose Yuma, I VERY much recommend this one. The writing has it's tiny hickup moments in some parts (kinda feeling jump cut-ish at times) but it's a well written story, definitely a heavy theme written for adult audiences to appreciate - same trigger warning applies btw. And it does an amazing job portraying the characters' struggle.
(Hehehe~)
Rereading this hot garbage because the second couple is so fucking good it hurts
