Slow burn, sweet

Exciting, interesting, a few yaoi-like moments. Gets a bit sad at that one point 1/20/22- what tf is happening, also the rich kid guy is such a douche and an asshole holy fudge treating people like things wtf

I reread this 2/11/21 where a lot has happened since this story finished in April. I connected with the characters more, maybe because I know more about myself now than I did then. I relate to Taehyun a bit with how he’s afraid of his feelings so he has trouble feeling and figuring out his feelings (because he still has them even if he’s afraid of them and pretends they’re not there) and also how he can be selfish, which he called himself. Taehyun, like me, fears a lot of things, and I also related with Dayeol on how he was afraid. That part where it said they were both afraid struck a chord in me. They didn’t know what to do because they stopped doing what they had been doing. They both feared so much about life. I am so deeply afraid of life. My favorite part of the story is when dayeol lays his head on the desk to watch Taehyun and the part that makes me keep thinking is the part when they sit together after they graduate. I think I get why Dayeol did that, but I also felt Taehyun’s desperation and patheticness in that moment, which I could relate to my own. Because I am selfish and pathetic. In the end, Taehyun is willing to try to like Dayeol because he wants to try even if he can’t exactly feel it or was unsure about it.

The slowburn is real but it's finally happening!!!!!
