He can't! That would stop any potential drama from happening and we can't have thatImagine just explaining why being seen by others could put her in huge danger, it's wild I know, unbelievable even, but imagine if he did it.
I mean he was just freaking out since his initial fears almost came true, and needed time to process his emotions.This emotionally manipulative mfer. One moment he'll tell you're worthless and you should end your life, next morning he'll hug you and say you deserve everything nice
"A lot of issues" is certainly one way of putting it. A grown man (and an objectively good-looking one at that) who never imagined he could have another person under his roof and seems absolutely convinced that a romantic partner would be made worse simply by being his partner is wildly unhealthy (even the Aspero Kanojo dude can pull that stuff off). He has a helluva lotta work to do before he should even think about getting together with anyone -- and recognizing how much work he needs to do, regardless of whether or not he's about to get together with anyone, is a first step he hasn't taken yet.I really enjoyed this chapter. It’s pretty obvious that ML has a lot of issues to sort through but this was the first time he was straightforward and honest with her in his own way. Hoping they can really truly get together sooner than later.
Also, the art in this manga really is beautiful.
