She has ulterior motives that are probably up to no good. Too easy to catch upon this. The MC is fucked because he has no frame as a man to set boundaries with the HS girl.

I'm getting "Sweetest Monster" vibes. I'm scarred from that VN.

It's just too plausible that he wouldn't be able to tell with all the stress, and we don't know what the daughter looks like.

man this girl is a time bomb. I thought at first when I started this series that it had potential to be a wholesome experience with maybe her liking him and him getting attached as they work to get his daughter back into his life but it'll remain platonic.

But now from this reader perspective while she does seem to want to help him it's almost as if she's psychologically manipulating a worn out white collar worker who has everything falling apart. At least her company with him has been somewhat beneficial in helping him try to reconnect with his daughter but stuff like her pushing him to 'run away' is going to cost him.

Ok this bitch is crazy. Normal people aren't that precocious. This manga is more psychological than I thought.

I wouldn’t be surprised if she bullied his daughter or something

Oh man, that'd be kind of hilarious? Bullied the daughter into hikikomori life, starts flirting with the dad to get close enough to finish the daughter off as it were. I just had to check who the author of this was because I wouldn't put that past some of the ones I read stuff by, it even sounds exactly like how this story would go from her on for some of them.

Man he is just having a breakdown. God I can relate to that. I broke down so hard in high school. I remember once I locked myself away in the washroom for 3 hrs at school and just kept thinking in my head "I want to run away. I want to run away. I want to run away". There was just too much pressure from too many directions. From family, from relatives, to friends, to school,for the future and due to my own insecurities. Also I do not seeing this going in a good direction.

even if he wasn't having a breakdown, he should still do stuff like this every now and again. No one but yourself will prioritize you and your time. Now and again you just have to leave, tell everyone to fuck off, or refuse extra demands from your boss. This way, everyone around you is aware that your time is important and doesn't come cheap.
