THIS HURTS SO MUCH

I honestly don't even know where to begin... This manga gave me so many mixed feelings, I just can't stop thinking about it. I read before going to bed and I even dreamed about possible future chapters!!! I woke up kinda desperate for more but obviously there's none. And it's driving me crazy, tbh. I like its slow pace, I see how the author is trying hard and how much effort s/he put in creating this scenario, so even though I am dying to get more, I will never be bothered by how slow things go. But I gotta confess that I am really afraid and anxious about Yamato's future. I treasure friendship so I can imagine how hard it's for him to slowly find out about his feelings for Yuiji. Been there before, twice to be specifically haha (but these friends of mine were not even close to Yuiji, who takes care of his friends and is always there for them), I can understand Yamato and his fear. I am bisexual so I understand, to some extent, his desperate fear of people finding about his sexuality, so it was really painful to watch the bully. Not only that, but also seeing Sakura's mother and how families affect us... For a moment there I started thinking "what if my parents are just like his mom...?". Nway, enough of me.
When it comes to this Hibino guy, I would very much like Yamato to say no. At first, I was like "my years of experience reading stuff tells me he might say yes bc well, drama is always present" which made me anxious and desperate and sad. But giving it some thought, I started to see the possible yes not only as a way to bring more drama but also as a consequence of Yamato's desires and fears: desire of being loved romantically; fear of falling in love with his straight? friend who he treasures so much, etc. Even though he doesn't like this guy, he may think that this new relationship is what he needs... And somehow everything feels extremely sad now...

If you read til here, I am sorry for the long comment hah I just wanted to put all those thoughts out. Maybe it's bc I don't have a love life, but BL stories always give me more feelings than I think it should hah I get anxious, sad, desperate... it's tiring but at the same time it's good to be able to feel what the author might have wanted to demonstrate.

    Yeah well since it's 3 volumes long, there is a possibility of drama, I think it will not be so easy to see Yamatox Yuiji together. But it's okay, because this manga is progressing in realistic pacing, so I can understand yamato's feelings. He just had this moment, where it hit him, about why Yuiji is so special to him, but then the next day new xdramax happened. Maybe he will try to avoid that moment of thought from ever happening again, because that might make him feel guilt for thinking like that, this is one of his best friend, straight, and the fear of loosing yuiji, who Yamato loves much more dearly that even he himself is not aware of it. Obviously, this new guy can never take the place of yuiji, the dynamics of Yamato and Yuiji bonding is so beautiful .
    Sorry even I'm a long post writer :P

    Tbh I am more afraid of drama and romantic-relationships popping out of nowhere, like this guys who just confessed (and we know Yamato has no feelings for him). I enjoy the slow pace, I think the story is beautiful and tells us a lot about painful realistic stuff but also about friendship, so I'm okay with the slow development of Yuiji x Yamato relationship. I am just afraid my heart will suffer more with melodrama if Yamato says yes to that guy :( I don't like suffering shsvbshd and I think the story has enough material for a 3rd vol. without Hibino. I am actually expecting to see more of Yamato's thoughts, his fears towards his new feelings for Yuiji, his feelings for himself once he needs self-love. Well, nway, guess we still have to wait quite a lot for more.
