Tbh, since chapter 1 I've felt like she should have responded to him or even just brought up how he laughed at her- but to do something at least. It feels like she's being punished for being indecisive or for not being able to tell him after he told her so many times just to receive silence and I was for it but jeez this is just fucking terrible. I feel so bad for her. Unless this is what the dude felt all those years with no reply but idk man
