I think their relationship is romantic. Of course it’s not the type of romance that most people are used to. This one is raw and has so many uncertainties because of their background and how they both met.
Their relationship is complex, sure, but wanting to be with
someone for the rest of your life and caring so much about what a small gesture like a hug means, doesn’t scream platonic to me. It’s not familial. Families don’t act this way.
If you want to disagree with me or have a little discussion, feel free ^^
