I feel bad for MC, because he is genuinely such a sweet and kind guy. But Kotani, his love interest, is just an asshole 90% of the time for no reason. I think author is trying to make them banter to keep the ‘enemies to lovers’ essence, but it’s painful to read and just doesn’t work. It’s not a banter if MC always feels like shit or hurt because of Kotani’s words that are said out of pocket most of the time.
Furthermore, whenever Kotani hurts MC - they just fuck. No talking it out or sharing their feelings. Dude just fucks MC and doesn’t care if he is mad or not (literally what he says in one of the chapters). This is soooo romantic (*sarcasm*).
They are suppose to be fated mates. Soulmates. People that click together like a puzzle. But the only thing that ‘clicks’ for them is sex. Their personalities and outlook of life are just not compatible. Realistically, this couple just doesn’t work beyond a purely sexual relationship. For example, the desire for marriage and kids are a pretty big deal when people start dating. If your partner wants kids and marriage, but you don’t - the relationship won’t work. And it’s just one of MANY things that don’t match for both of them.
On top of that, Kotani treats MC like a fuck buddy rather than a long term partner, which just pisses me off (again, because MC is actually sweet and lovely). He is just taking MC’s love for granted, and I can’t wait for him to get his head straight later when second male lead (?) appears.
I really hope Kotani gets his shit together, because he does not deserve MC whatsoever.
