Trilogy's manga / #Student(3)

Realistic kind of love where the uke and seme have a one night stand. The seme falls in love with the uke and follows the uke until the uke decides to become sex friends. Seme wants to be more than sex friend but uke is afraid of commitment due to the pain and hardship that comes with love. The seme doesn’t stop trying and the uke decides to give it a try. They have to maintain their relationship a secret because the uke works at the uni that the seme attends as a student. Not really complicated, but more like realistic hardships of being afraid to be committed to someone.

I was surprised by how much of a fluffy read this was. The seme was not toxic at all, he was not even possessive as tags might have mentioned. I feel that he was just pure and innocent, he just knew he loved the uke and that he wanted to spend time with the uke. The uke was not toxic or mean either, he was just a regular guy who had seen too much bad of the world so when a kind and innocent person comes to him it was natural of him to push it away from fear of it being a facade. The freaking ending though!!!! They finally get together as a couple but the seme must leave overseas for 4 years to train to take over the company he tells the uke he will love him and wait for him to come back. Seme leaves, but only because he wants to chase his dream and wants the uke to chase his dream of becoming a pre-school teacher too. The seme comes back after 4 years and the uke had been waiting for him to come back. Bro, the level of trust, maturity, and commitment they both showed was overwhelmingly beautiful. I teared up a bit, because how amazing that the author included such a non-toxic plot. Just wow!

To be honest I wouldn’t re-read this one because the story was a bit long and I felt bored in a few segments but that does not mean it was a bad read. The story was really fluffy and typically follows the realistic depiction of an older uke with a younger Seme. In this case the seme is the pure, fluffy, young and virgin character. The uke is older and experienced. The uke was recently dumped by his 3 year boyfriend because his ex wanted to have a family. The uke accepted it and went on a much needed vacation to lift his spirts there he met our wonderful kind and handsome seme. He is young and naive but he is true to his feelings and does not hide his intentions from the uke. The uke wants nothing to do with love but he can’t help falling for the seme bit by bit because of how genuine he is about his feelings. Smut was good but the art was not 100% my style for pleasure reading. It was great, just not my full cup of tea. Hence the pauses in the readings and picking it back up again.
