I think this story is really captivating and quite a representation of what happens in life (minus the occasional fate meetings between kou and fl). While the story started off with kou, I think she will end up with tatsuo.
Kou being with with FL helped him find his passion and goal and it did heal them a little. She was finally able to be more confident to have sex. While tatsuo is helping her to build more communication. It definitely goes both ways and I am liking how Tatsuo and fl are growing in a relationship..chapter 36 really shows how much of a tsundere he is but also how much he likes fl. While he is not very expressive with his face, he is quite expressive with his words, which is great for FL since she gets insecure and tends to overthink. We can also see FL's growth here.
One gripe i have about the relationships in this story is how fl didnt seem to have feelings for her boss but still start a relationship and literally (fked) on first date. I chalk this up to their culture thoughm.. which is common
Idk about yall but I feel that he really likes her. He flirts with her a lot, wants to be next to her, wants to be alone with her, wants her to come to his house so he can cuddle with her - those are definitely signs that he likes her and is outright flirting with her because he doesn't really care much about the consequences and rather do what he wanna do..
I don't think Hajin will do something so cruel like making her fall in love with him then dumping her or telling her that it was simply her brother's request - if she was already suicidal then the betrayal may make her more even less trusting of others and more suicidal??
Yes there will certainly be drama when she finds out their connection but I feel like it won't be for long - because this manga is slightly different from the typical shoujo mangas.
Damn we're so spoiled with so many chapters! Was waiting so long for someone to pick this up again.
I hope they will just become mates already :(
