Chap 102, the end of part 3

Tina March 26, 2025 9:40 pm

Ok let's point out some stuffs so far before part 4 is translated:
- ML is mentally ill, he's the result of his family treating him worse than animals while shaming and demonizing his sexuality.
- ML is traumatized n has no real or genuine interactions w anyone so far in his life so he knows NOTHING abt being a normal person or has common sense.
- ML is obsessive of MC, stalks him throughout the story, before meeting MC and even during the bullying.
- ML kinda moved in w MC for awhile before their fall out due to MC feeling pity for ML, so alot of his stuffs r at MC's place. At the end of part 3, MC tells ML to get rid of his stuffs out of his place cz he doesn't want to think of ML anymore, esp in his room. But ML refuses, he says he will take one at a time instead.
- MC n ML will be put into a different class together, it's a class full of good grades students (the 2 Junwoo's followers ain't in that class, and I'll be calling them 2 Mfs)
- Students in that class don't give a f abt anything/anyone besides their grades. So when they bully MC, they ain't physical, but manipulative, they humiliate and guilt trip MC into doing their homework or works in general for better grades (MC is always ranked 1)
- MC is bullied mostly by other classmates n students and the 2 Mfs. He got hurt physically multiple times too, the worst one was when someone put sharp things in his shoes. MC saw ML holding his shoes later after the incident so there's something going on there (later when they talk, MC tells ML that he got rid of the shoes already n ML reacts weirdly saying "Why? Ain't those your favorite pair of shoes? How can u just get rid of them so easily" as if he talking abt himself)
- There is 1 guy who helped MC during the bullying, but he was never upfront or wanted to be too involved w MC cz he doesn't want any dramas. He's like that to everyone, nice but never close. His name is Shin Jae Hyun (he will plays major part apparently since he's mentioned so often).
- ML is jealous of Junwoo, Taesan and Shin Jae Hyun. So later when MC doesn't want to go the school much anymore (due to the bullying even after ML forced and pressured MC to forgive n make up w him) but still want to be updated w the lessons, he asked Shin Jae Hyun for help but no response. This maybe causes by ML involvement because he keeps popping up around MC watching him closely + his jealousy.
- ML mentally towards MC is he loves MC, but scared of being perceived (cz his family literally beat him up n treat him like shit, even his lil sister who's probably under 12y old doesn't regard him as a human being)
- All ML learned is how to get to the top (cz his family is very influential n powerful) and throughout the time he stalked MC before using Junwoo to get close to MC, he thought MC would only like someone because they're at the top, for their ranks, their positions not for them as a person.
- MC still likes ML but he has always been rational, he also has his own ego and pride (good for him, we need more Bottom like him) so when ML forced MC to forgive him, he's very on guard and still stands by his original plan of getting tf away from ML. Throughout the bullying, he just wants everyone to leave him alone so he can study and graduate. Unfortunately, due to the bullying, he was unable to study n gave his best, which made him fall from rank 1st to rank 12th. ML got ranked 1 and MC said he wanna KILL him at that time cz he never lost his rank ever before (again good for him, his anger n pettiness is valid)

Anyway, they're in their last year of highschool already and we will see them graduate soon (hopefully)

    I like complex characters and I do love MC cz he is smart n has his own ego/pride so tho he appears submissive, he's actually not n very vengeful.
    And there's a tag abt ML being regretful so I'm still waiting for him n his ass to start chasing n apologizing MC once MC graduate n has more freedom
