we don't truly appreciate what we have until it's gone (2)

— ml basically neglects his wife constantly despite actually liking the love she gives him, he's also insanely dense and only ambitious towards his own specific goal which is ruined after fl reveals important info, after that he shuts her out and ruins their marriage to the point of divorce, now that his head is out his ass he's finally realizing what he really wants.

— family members neglect fl as a child so when she reaches military age she ditches them and with some harsh words too, now she's stuck in the body of a child again and her family tries to repent with their new 'adopted' daughter and sibling, not knowing she's actually the same family member they left to rot from harsh abuse.
