Okay, the other girls (or at least the cousin) could a little nicer to him considering they know his true personality (at least one of them should). I really hat these types of situations when the guy tries to help and is persecuted for it. The alternative was letting her fall. It’s really not funny to me. Loved seeing his POV though, great new character to introduce (also really happy we haven’t gotten any actual love rivals).
Damn, this is sad, the kid is kind and shy, shunned by other people, and every time he gets close to the girl he likes something happens to make him look like a creep.
