I literally read this all today then immediately went and bought the official acrylic stand merch for it lmao. Inwoo is a quite literally a open book, he literally said he needs love and he believes he’s broken, so why would you hide such massive news from him and secretly set him up with the source of his TRAUMA. Please god the next chapters are going to hurt I cannot rn.

There's going to be a lot coming up, mainly for Inwoo. And honestly setting him up to meet his mother like that is just wrong, he should've gone and checked it out for himself and then talked to Inwoo about it. Taking him there and possibly puttign him infront of his mother is just wrong, especially when you suspect he lied that his mother was abroad, I mean clearly Inwoo wouldn't lie until he had a good viable reason. It's just messed up to do that but let's see. Lots of trauma is goign to be coming up.

the source of his trauma is his dad eventho its gotten worse after his mom left them. But he always wanted to taste his mom's cake once again. I think this is as much could heal him since he's also jealous with jiho's family. Maybe meeting his mom can at least make him feel apart of a happy family (hopefully). It's suspicious tho how his mom never considers to find him all this time (maybe she feels like she's not worth forgiven) but idk i hope his mom care and miss him bad

Literally. I read this so long ago that I don't remember what exact trauma Inwoo had with his parents but I do remember him having some serious issues because of his mother, one of the main sources of his trauma. So it just seems like a really stupid idea to put him in front of his trauma without any preparing of any sort. Like Inwoo would not be mentally prepared for that and his mental state is already not the best so its just such a bad idea.

I knew Seongrok would fucking blame himself. Seongrok calling himself an accident is so heart wrenching because he should know that if he had never held je-oh captive that blonde guy who died would still be r*ping him and he would have died as a prostitute. He cant blame himself when they BOTH had rough upbringings and ended up in the worst scenarios on the wrong side of manipulative games but finding each other was not a mistake!!!!! Through everything they both literally just want to be free and be in love. Je-oh also never cried this entire time after all the assaults he’s been through and finally being told it’s ok to cry literally gave him relief that he’s finally not alone even when the situation is terrible. I cannot TAKE THIS. I’m gonna go bald from stress my guy, please stop the actual pain.

Heeseong is so fucking mad that Seongrok fell in love with Je-oh so fast. She had years with him while Je-oh had months if not a year at most to literally have Seongrok deeper in love than he ever was with her. Also crush that r*pist dick— I was hoping he’d get there in time to prevent it because this is going to make Je-oh spiral from his trauma. I feel like Seongrok is going to blame himself for his pain because he was gone and what’s worse is that Je-oh just took that without crying. I hate it here this is actually painful. It’s a story of two people being abused and used but at least they now have each other. :(
Ngl I just straight scrolled past this whole chapter. Agia when
