But both are also dense and slow af. Also Minus more points for Winter bcs he refuses to talk.
BUT LET'S BE REAL ASH IS THE REAL ASS. IF HE DIDNT LIE HIS SISTER WOULDNT THINK THAT SHE IS A BURDEN AND WINTER WOULDN'T HAVE TO WORK HIS ASS OFF TO GIVE HIS WIFE A LUXURIOUS LIFE (even though she didn't ask)
I understand that people hates Winter for the things he did, I did despise him for the first few chapters too, but again all his life he knows no more than how to earn money and how that money is the one thing that keeps him living. They both just wanna do the best for each other but many miscommunications arise because their background is different and they believed that they are different.
This is why I like reading stories. It makes me aware that not everyone grow up the same and not everyone have the same background. Everyone has pain but not every pain is the same. Since I'm aware of this, hopefully in real life I could avoid miscommunications with my future SO, or I could avoid doing accidental gaslight. These stories teaches me to put myself in the other person's shoe first before saying anything. I might not be perfect myself, but being aware is not gonna hurt anyone.
