It's short and sweet with the right amount of angst.
Granted, because it's a short story, the ML's side of things might seem like it was told too fast for some. However, considering the number of chapters, I feel like the author was able to flesh out their characters pretty well, as well as show their relationship with each other both before the story started and their current relationship. I feel like the length is just the right amount as well bcs making it longer would most likely let the author drag out the problem, which isn't really needed. They've been apart for 3 years already and have been yearning for each other since they were in their teens, it wouldn't have made sense to see them not be this eager to be with each other. Making it longer to show their relationship also doesn't seem necessary (ofc it will be appreciated) as the pacing of the story once they got together, as well as the exposition of how things developed, everything is already flowing pretty great and naturally. While adding more to it can never be bad (bcs more fluffy moments is more fluffy moments after all), it's not necessarily needed. In my humble opinion.
Sidenote tho, lowkey think ML is on the spectrum. I'm studying for my boards so I can't help but see psychology shit everywhere, sorry lmao. Anyway, it's cause of his unusual way of thinking and lack of understanding of social relationships and social situations, which would explain why he never even thought how his sudden marriage to this random girl would affect MC. He didn't even understand his own feelings until it's been years and years. Even when MC was describing how he doesn't care abt people around him and shi, I just keep thinking "maybe...?" Lmao.
