Chapter 69

Maybe that's an unpopular opinion, but I kind of aggressively approve Akane calling out Aoi's bs?
T h i s is what love looks like, not just brainless adoration. When you love someone you don't fail to see what's wrong in the other person. On the contrary, you're more aware than anybody else, and you're accepting it and try to help if asked for it.
Right now I think Akane's trying to do that, make Aoi understand he's there, she just had to say the word. Plus, he's not forcing himself over, he's not coercing her into anything she doesn't agree with (she's the one relaxing and closing her eyes first, he's keeping his guard up to detect any kind of stopping signal and back off).

Like, girl, I totally get you, don't get me wrong, you've got trust issues, or this is simply your personality, but being an avoidant type doesn't justify you being salty.
Being one myself, I understand this on a molecular level. Been there, done that. Still doing it sometimes, but I know this is not the correct way to interact.
You shouldn't argue about other people not wanting to connect when you're the first one running away from it because you're afraid of being hurt or betrayed.
Life can throw some serious shit your way, and it's gonna do it as long as you live, it's up to you to react, collect whatever positive you can from every experience, and move on.

I mean, since the very beginning I think there's a mothertrucking ton of stuff that you seem to know, but you systematically refuse to speak of, which would have helped A LOT.
Not that you have to do it by yourself, because asking for help is crucial if you realize you need it. This is what Akane is also trying to tell you; he's there, he's always been there. He understands that's how you are and that you need to see it, but on your terms, at the proper time. He's giving you time to realize it on your own.
Time puns totally not intended, I just realized XD.

Also, I laughed so much when Teru crashed the place, I just love him and Akane's bantering. That doesn't mean I think Minamoto's stupid or oblivious. It's pretty clear he's up to something, but I am giving the benefit of the doubt, see what he's gonna do.
Personally, I think that right now him showing up might feel like a deus ex machina (a.k.a. plot hax mode), but we can really use all the help we can get right now.
