Remember how that guy at the FL who was notorious for dragging girls into dating rumors with him bc he’d like to use that to boost his social status?
Well the ML and her brother went out of their way to give that a lesson and the Ml was the one who was most “heated” about that encounter
Also for the ML he’s always been self conscious of the FL after she swore up and down his older brother was her crush. It’s explained later on but they both did things subtly against one another over the course of years. So it was like budding feelings if that makes sense.
As for the FL it seemed like her using the older brother crush thing was really just a rue to get closer to the ML lol
In conclusion they’re horny freaks
... This feels so rushed?? I'm just reading the officials rn, but they fuckin' on ch.10 already, which...????? I feel like I'm experiencing whiplash, and not in a good way. If they (artist/author) had spent at least some time fleshing out each character's feelings - albeit I guess it'll happen now - I wouldn't have felt so weird about the whole thing.
I missed reading about clues - something that gave away their pining, going beyond superficially glancing at the other across the room once. Something that has to/should be specific to their dynamic. It just feels so washed up, which is a shame, since the art is scrumptious.
