I hate that he's lying to Bom and in such a callous and obvious way. Bom has done way more than a "friend" should be doing for someone who's already ghosted him before. I liked his Mom for a millisecond. It's obvious he's low on her priority list. Naw, I'm really bugging! They doing my boy so wrong.
I'm going to go ahead and give the author her props for this side story now. It's been quite sometime since my emotions have been at war for a single character. It's usually fuck them to the pits of hell and that usually doesn't change. I still hate him forever for Suha, but gawdammit I want to see him get justice, a therapist, an actual friend something!
They way they both looked at each other's faces lovingly, but missed looking at each other in the eyes *chef's kiss* Being comfortable enough to joke around in the middle of a hardcore session is such a subtle nod to far their relationship has come. They've always bantered, but there's a gentleness to it now.










He's giving a Jet as a push present. God, I'm just asking for a fraction of this kind of love. A scooter, a keychain of a car, something!
