Guys reread this one
I just finished reading from the start again and when we were going through the fights each week it felt like this was never going to get better but in the story itself not that much time has passed and reading it again and their inner thoughts really helps
It's not that inwoo didn't actually miss his mom and jiho knew that like the cake him mom made him was the first thing he wanted to try after he had his sense of taste back so now that I remember that it feels less like jiho was being ignorant and more like a genuine mistake of not knowing inwoo's inner conflicts and just rushing the process like I believe the things he did will actually help in the long run.
And also as someone that has dealt with clinical depression for a long time and now I'm healed and also someone that (not to this extent of course but) genuinely hated my mom but actually reconciled with her I know it really does help... hearing them apologize the first time really angers you like was my pain nothing then? What now ?I'm just supposed to forgive you? But as time goes by and you actually see change and you come to understand them as a human being and not just your parents it actually really helps with letting go of the pain that you've been holding on to. Forgiveness has nothing to do with other people It's just something that will set yourself free...
I really wish them all the happiness and I think these two characters are very well written and human and they do love each other
