still not gonna lie, it was really well done, the internal conversation, how he wuss out in middle school and even how she self destruct... just hope Lili doesn't throw sh!t on him. (who am I kidding, author is gonna make some drama after evading it this time)

Honestly I'm hoping it's just a "I hope you're doing well" call and it's only meant to look like a big dramatic impending moment or something.

If she's suddenly pining for him and calling because she's rethinking their breakup or something it'll be super annoying, because she clearly doesn't seem ready for a relationship, or at least not with someone not her age/at her university.

And he doesn't need that nonsense, after his ex tried to rope him back in. I liked Lili because I relate as a painter, but at this point she just reminds me of how dumb I was in my early 20s and I hope she stays a failed experiment in our Protagonist's past.

Thx for the TL

Honestly I was expecting it to be like this and im happy it did. While it wouldve been funny and nice to see mc just getting with them ladies (still waiting for Yukari cus she based), but im happy they didn't sleep together. them having sex wouldve been a nice moment for each other, but it wouldn't fix all their problems and internal struggles, it would've just temporary soothe and could end up creating more problem. Mc needs to take some time to find out more of himself.

While some might see this as an L, I disagree. Hiromi treated Nonoka with nothing but respect. He could’ve easily pressed the issue, she was the one who suggested going to a love hotel, and she seemed comfortable with the idea. But when she passed out drunk, he understood she might not be in her right mind. Instead of taking advantage, he chose to simply sleep beside her.

When she woke up and realized she still had all her clothes on, that he hadn’t done anything, she respected that. And what did she do? The exact same thing, she mirrored his respect and didn’t try to escalate anything either.

To me, this moment could be foreshadowing something between them. Maybe not a long-term relationship, but something real that comes from mutual respect. Even if it doesn’t last, it could lead to something meaningful in the short term.

Now, the real question is, should he tell Lili what happened?

In my honest opinion, no. Lili broke up with him. They’re just exes sharing a space now, and he doesn’t owe her an explanation. But knowing how kind-hearted Hiromi is, he’ll probably tell her anyway, and that’s only going to stir up unnecessary drama. It might even push Lili to confide in her male best friend, who could take that as a chance to make a move on her. But that’s a bridge we’ll cross when we get there.

As for Hiromi, I don’t see this as an L at all. Whether it’s a relationship or something physical, the last thing you want to do is make the other person feel uncomfortable. And in this case, Hiromi showed real restraint and respect. So yeah, maybe things didn’t go the way he hoped, but that doesn’t mean he lost.

On a side note, I’m kind of annoyed that Lili called at the end of the chapter. Let’s not forget, she’s the one who broke up with him. The least she could do is give the man some space while he’s in Wakayama. He’s got a lot going on, and she should respect that.
