This and three days of happiness have bitter endings, well to be more accurate 3 days is more happier while this ending is more depressing IMO

Ah, the climax of this story. Y’all are gonna love the following chapters.

Also I love Sanagi’s point: if you’re a “puppet” to some external factor (in this case, a literal worm), and you’re “choosing” that you prefer it that way, is that your true free will or just resigning to the circumstances?

@JaneJeon I think it is resigning to the circumstances, because our feelings of joy and happiness or sadness and misery are essentially the same, puppeteered by our brains to reinforce or get rid of a particular behaviour or habit we do. Being addicted to food is the most basic example. People with excessive eating habits may argue they choose it themselves, but why they choose it? Because their "puppeteer" brain makes it feel good to eat a lot. So that's resigning to circumstances too.

The true free will in any circumstances would be to analyse everything objectively, and not be tied down and influenced by they physiological "stick and carrot" responses of our bodies hardcoded into us by evolution.

I suppose better questions to ask are what is free will and do we even have it in the first place as a characteristic of human nature?

There's a chance that he told someone else about it, right?...

why was he driving away in the car to begin with? shouldn't he have stayed nearby to listen to their conversation?
