@musicfreak12 they're acomplices in a fraud they pretend to get married someone else goes to Siberia and they separate. This guy wants a genuine relationship is not the same hurdle at all xd
I feel kinda bad that they lie to him but he's showing exactly why they can't tell him xd if you keep trying to control everything a younger sibling does like an helicopter parent they're never gonna trust you
@Smileyguy the thing is he tries conciously not to be aware of her because admiting to himself that he's starting to like Akari would be dishonest to Shiori, she is his priority now and that wont change untill Akari makes her intentions clear to him
Everytime he picks up a hint she denies it and is constantly telling him how he is beneath her and just a convenient tool to keep her reputation of being perfect, what was she expecting to happen when she literally conditioned him to not expect anything close to genuine feelings from her xd?
