Heh, this chapter was funny, but also struck home. The way MC musters up courage, only to get his hopes crushed in the instant he gathers his strength — all over the matter of love — that was literally me at one point too. And, then ironically trying to kill myself afterwards too, trying to shoot myself in my car. As I kept pulling the trigger farther and farther each attempt, eventually — like an angel — a friend called me to talk, because she heard me talk about how I felt so defeated. Kinda like how MC was just carried away from death, that's sorta what it felt like after talking about my situation. Returning home, literally felt like that line "... I am back."
Ty4t!
