I'm just waiting for the next bombshell to drop with Haru's stepdad's behavior explained. /Yes, I'm prepared for the worst.

He has no proper mother or father figure in his life. What a mess. The same is true for her though.

So, Yuri revealed her manipulative and "societal approval-whore" persona to the audience (minus Souta, obviously. He's waaay too naive and emotionally blind to realize the malicious snake on sheep clothes he has at his side). In the end, i was right. She's gonna take advantage from an emotionally broken and unstable Souta. Also, it made the parallels between her and Fumi more evident.
Pages 19 to the final one were pure gold. The last panel felt a little Tite Kubo's "The heart™", but unlike the original, it sets the eerie motivations Yuri has.
Pls give somebody a hug to our japanese Charlie Bucket. Also, ch. 15 must be released this weekend, due to Big Comic Superior being already out.

This dude. A 10.000¥ note without a trace to the owner. Well the police-men will take care of it for sure. Can't facepalm anymore about him.
Well the cracker cracked. Feels bad man Haru. Lolz.
Everytime reading this I take a deep breath before. And then you just think truck-kun can't come around the corner soon enough.

Notice, it may seem like he's taken quite the leap in logic to automatically assume she doesn't care about him at all, but let's notice some details here:
-He's both sleep deprived and overworked, so he probably isn't thinking completely rationally
-He's pretty clearly depressed, which also clouds judgement and leads to obsessive guilt usually
-He's already stressed from being called out by the teacher, having to do work throughout the night, and feeling betrayed, meaning he's more likely to burst
Other notes:
-Notice how his mother tries to wonder where the money he spent has gone, and she almost implies that she knew it wasn't going to the food stand. She's gathering information
-We see more indications that Sensei is realizing MC is being abused throughout the piece
-The twisted thing about Yuri this chapter is that this act isn't a front and probably is her genuine feelings. She probably did want to comfort MC on some level despite feeling happy about his changed view on Haru. What's insidious is that it's her that planted the seed of doubt in the first place, and then she finds the fact he's grown into her biases as vindication of her beliefs. She doesn't offer to help mend the friendship or to fix him, but she's acting as if he's come to the light and has redeemed himself. It's almost like SHE forgives HIM for straying away from HER ideal path for him, and so goes on to try and kinda convert him into what she wants him to be.
@animepig wait until you read Kimi ni aisarete itakata. It's a well-crafted story but damn is it fucked up. I still get chills thinking about one scene in particular. (You'll know what I'm talking about.)

Hopefully this'll turn into a good lesson for MC about people that if possible must be avoided

@Airwave2k2 Truck-kun have no business on not-isekai manga.
Now that i think, Souta's singlemother family and the stigma he has to carry due to that reflects real life post economic bubble burst Japan hides to the world.

If you aren't into researching of japan's darkest sides of their society, you will assume this is overexaggerating drama, but shit like the things happening to Souta's family in this manga happen a lot. Only that mainstream media, shonen manga and government as well hide these dark things so the world only is allowed to see the kawaii and kewl Japan.
@MrMcNasty add the homeroom teacher and Matoba-jichan (Fumi's fatass middle-aged customer) to the list. These 2 are the obly adults who are either nice, or understand the shit MC has to live and actually are worried for him

Notice: this is classic manipulator behavior.
That last line in particular reveals her mindset. She doesn't view his actions as a mistake or wrong, but rather a slight against her personality. It's not a case of her feeling bad that her crush just saw the one person he thought cared about him stab him in the back, but rather that he betrayed her and is now coming to the light.
Hence the last line "I forgive you" indicates her mindset. She doesn't CARE what he wants, she wants him to know his place in her dreams and ambitions, and if he strays away from it, he's crossed HER personally. She almost views it as karmic, and that Souta deserves what happened to him, but don't worry, she'll be the bigger person and forgive him.

I wouldn't strike Matoba from the list... Remember in the first chapter that he told the MC that he "was sad because he couldn't meet his mom today." It was definitely a malicious statement, but good ol' Sou-chan was too dense to realize it.

I hope her and the mom meet just to see the possible carnage.
