i don't know about y'all but in the middle of reading this chapter i realized, "yohan has been looking forward to kissing soohwa for a WHILE," and i literally started feeling all the desperation he must've felt because he's been waiting and anticipating and dreaming about it. my boi deserved a goddang kis and he finally got it.
listen, i know this is totally unrealistic of me to want this but... i really want the author to redeem all of the characters. i want hyesung to meet his child and not immediately get in a relationship with dojin and use his intelligence (because motherfucker's smart, but he hid it for so long to avoid his dad) and get himself to the point where the idea of taking care of his child with or without dojin isn't so intimidating and straight up scary. i want dojin to finally admit, "oh, maybe all omegas aren't as lowly as my family made them out to be and can be just as rational and human and not sex crazed and desperate as i am." and make an effort to communicate with hyesung and express his feelings. i want them to be there for each other to confront their families (especially hyesung). i want them to fall in love with each other while admitting that there was a point where they were really toxic for one another. to help each other and support and cheer each other on, not as mates or partners, but as individuals.
┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍ that's all i wanttttttttt
this chapter made me realize how scared yohan must've been when soohwa first told him that he get's hot because of his voice... like he literally had to face his trauma just to make sure that something like the byung situation didn't happen so , ignoring his own feelings, he pleasured soohwa.
do you hear that? that's the sound of my own heart BREAKING.
This hit way too close to home; the push for heteronormativity and feeling pressured to do it just to please your family but feeling angry towards them for pushing you to be something your not is something I imagine one too many people experience on a day to day basis. I know for a fact that Asian culture is very family oriented and that the expectations of the children to live according to how their parent's demand, my own culture is similar enough that I felt YuYang's pain.
To all those that don't fit your parent's ideologies and expectations, know that you're fulfilling mine and that I'm proud of you. Send me the adoption papers, I'll be your parent now.
