It was tough really, i literally cried. I was like "Still, you should've told her. It would be better that she stay by your side" then I realized that she's going to college, and if he did say abt hid illness then there's a possibility that she'll not proceed to college and would take care of him, just like he said.
Then he also went into coma for 2 yrs, then after that lost all his memories and it took 29 years for a full recovery and another year to remember his loml and his son... I can feel how heavy that feels for him, gosh
Then again, the mom really went through a lot. She doesn't know the reason why he left. I cannot even imagine how she's feeling all those years. ALSO SHE WAS PREGNANT, She's so strong for finishing college and raising a kid alone.
My heart aches for both of them, the circumstances really fuck them up.
I still think that talking it with her would be the best choice, even if she won't proceed to college at that time, she still can go after thing settle down a little. It just frustrated me how he just assume things. She died not knowing the truth and anything, and it really hurts me just imagining all those years that she's alone working and raising a child








Maybe the reason why she doesn't look like as mature, mommyish, sharp llike her first appearances was because this is Claude's POV and that she's 17(?) at this time (I read it somewhere that Diana died at 19, idk how true it is tho). Also, she look more sharp and mature mommyish in Liliy's POV esp that scene where Diana was dancing, or maybe she looks like that because she is dancing.
damn... i really get it now why claude was so destroyed when Diana died and when she chose to save athy over herself... if i were claude i'd lose my shits too. While reading this chapter, that one chapter where claude was muttering "i hate you" all over again while sitting beside athy flashes into my mind.... im crying huhuhu.. well at least claude eventually learn to love and cherish athy later on and finally understand the feeling that Diana was feeling when she chose to save her instead. But it still hurts me whenever i think of Claude yearning for Diana... SO PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS ADAPT THE DIMENSION HOPPING SIDE STORY TO EASE THIS ACHING HEART OF MINEEEEE RAHHH
