@comeonnow0 rereading the whole shit, i finally understood she's like this bc she thinks her stepdaddy is an absolute homewrecker (in the sense he destroyed whatever thing it can be considered as family cohesion). The little shit the authors gave about her past tell in readers' face she had a healthy relationship with her family (especially with her rip biodad), but her biodad died and then her mom stopped caring about the mother-son relationship the instant she remarried and became a mediocre housewife, delivering a huge blow to the dynamics she had before.
Haru's just bratty (and a teenager brat, the worst age for somebody to have sudden family changes) bc her stepdaddy doesn't understand emotional shit can't be solved "flipping a wad of cash", and telling people to "behave yourself". And with her mom taking the stepfather's side, what would you do? Lower your head and accept the new family dynamics? If you ask me, i don't.
Just as something trivial: I had a cousin that went the dark side and an elementary school acquaintance that" was abou to" after experiencing strong family disruptions. One of them suffered the worst part from a divorce, his grades lowered and became a troublemaker at school 'till the moment he was kicked out from thete. Some months later, he ended as a crackthief, his stepdaddy kicked him out and disowned him and 2 years after, he ended up hanging himself, he had nobody else to talk his problems, his mom and STEPDADDY didn't care shit about him and people in the school didn't take him seriously bc he was from a poor narco slum. The other lost her mom and the dad was an absent bastard, but luckily pulled herself together bc she had people she could talk her problems.
It's not a position i can relate too much bc i didn't have said turnoils (just an alcoholic dad, but he pulled himself together almost instantly), my 2 parents are alive and together. But i can understand why children and teenagers who suffer sudden family dynamic shifts become insufferable shitheads.
In the end, the only shit internally broken people with uncaring family members want is somebody they can talk out their problems and relate to. Just think what would happened if Souta didn't appear in Haru's life.
Just as a reminder: the 1st reaction she had at seeing his 24 yen was "This is the 1st time i ever laughed like this
in a way long time. Oh shit, my stomach!" (or something like that).
I hope this is the 1st, and last bigass textwall with testimonial shit i write here.
