i’m so tired of the weird and obsessive childhood friend trope…
same I’m so not into it
Saaame and the people gagging to make excuses for him are disgusting
this has to be projection or smth like either they’re young asf and haven’t learned how to have their own agency or they wanted their childhood crush and never got it
EXACTLY what I was thinking. Their own crush didn't like him back so they relate. Literally how incels became a thing.
i hate bjorn’s mindset so much bc he truly thinks there’d be nothing wrong with continuing to treat erna and their future child as a shield and trophy if the truth about gladys’ affair never came out. he just can’t understand that just because it didn’t happen doesn’t make it hurt any less. sometimes actions don’t speak louder than words, what erna really needed was those words of reassurance and he could never give her that (unless he grovels and does that later idk). just so frustrating all around cause i actually like bjorn at times he’s such an interesting, albeit frustrating, character to me and i just hate to think he won’t grovel enough to make it up to erna because how do you change a mindset so fucked up like that????? oh bjorn…
that stunt he pulled on her birthday literally made my heart hurt… my chest is hurting so much omfg
my jaw fucking hurts oh my god chapter 96 stabbed me holy shit
why am i torturing myself by continuing to read this. my face is soaked in tears. i will never recover. ERNA LEAVE THAT LECHEROUS MAN
i truly believe all the stress made her miscarry and because of that i will never forgive bjorn
What happened omg , i draw the line if he cheated
he didn’t cheat but he was so emotionally unavailable during her pregnancy. and she’s always been aware how high society thought of her, “the villainess who was preventing gladys and bjorn get back together,” “spoiled, new money brat.” her every move was being criticized and at first she could take it because she was falling in love with bjorn, but eventually she realized her entire life was going to be a punching bag for high society so long as bjorn kept gladys’ affair a secret. all the tabloids and gossip talk about erna instead of bjorn now. then she realizes her child will bare the harsh treatment of high society, tabloids, and gossip as well. bjorn thinks, not that it’s a good thing, but because he believes erna can endure it, he will compensate her in other ways, so he never told her the truth about gladys. this all culminates roughly into erna telling bjorn that she can’t do this anymore and bjorn tells her to “just act like a doll that breathes and smiles only for me.” and that breaks her. so yeah, i truly think all the tabloid gossip (rumours caused by his affair), learning that bjorn kept a major secret from her the whole time, realizing bjorn might never truly love her, and realizing bjorn was fine with making erna and their future child a shield for gossip, made erna miscarry…. and obviously after the fact, he removes all baby items to not remind erna of what she lost out of consideration, but erna, already heartbroken, takes this gesture as him not caring that she lost their baby. ugh. word salad. so he didn’t cheat but he hurt erna so badly imma need a long and thoughtful chasing arc from him
my bad, by “rumours caused by his affair,” i meant like the truth of his affair came out where bjorn was actually the victim in marriage fraud or whatever. erna realizes bjorn was ready to make erna live the rest of her life a a shield to keep society under the impression that gladys was innocent.
Wow , he's trash TRASHH. Pure garbage
I KNOWWWW MY HEART HURTS SO BAD FOR ERNA
i want to say that bjorn having sex with erna was like the final nail to the coffin? erna was already weak enough and to have sexual intercourse with her too
before i read this, is the fl a grown woman who enters a child’s body and grooms the ml or is this different…
It's very different. FL is only two years older than ML so it's very wholesome kids falling in love and growing up together
Her consciousness if of an older woman *technically* speaking but it's not in a creepy grooming way
ok i trust you bro
i love ruediger like, he’s so me.. takes everything super literally, needs tone indicators, needs context, etc… let’s just say he’s a little special
this was ridiculously anticlimactic and a drag to read…
even if he’s a dimwit he doesnt deserve to be treated like that. dimwit rights! i’m a dimwit too!
you know what… i’m choosing to feel at peace at the fact that ellen’s mentally dead and died along with kaidel and noah is just dragging around a barely animated corpse…
proud to say i’ve been on the nasar ship the whole time
Was there any other ship? He's been the one and only ml candidate since chapter 1.
with the way the story was progressing i thought she would choose herself lmao
Oh. You're half right lol. She does choose herself. Nasar is there by her side at the but the romance is very subtle. Is their relationship romantic or not? I'm not sure. This story doesn't focus on romance in the first place.
At the end of novel*
it’s true that the story buts the romance on the back burner but near the end of the novel they get into a relationship and phil acknowledges her insecurities held her back from truly expressing her feelings for nasar.
puts*
And that's it? I don't remember the last time i read a story where it ended with the leads finally together. I didn't read the novel but spoilers. The one giving it said there wasn't really any romance.
oh.. well i made my original comment cause i found out they get together in the novel. i was just nervous so i skipped to the ending and read some spoilers
he’s a FREAK and they match each other so well
