It's not often the plot develops in a way I dislike so much that I drop the series, but this is one of those times. What an absolute clusterfuck, and there is no reason it should have been a clusterfuck. It had such good initial potential too, I liked both the ML and the FL, and I have a soft spot for the age gap childhood friend trope. But now I can already see where this is going, and it's going to be absolute torment to read through.
