I did and I still don't get it :)))
1st chapter shows him in the first pannels walking around barefoot and bruised...idk why? Is that "the present"? Like.. They don't work out in the end or something and all we've been reading so far is just a big flashback, a story telling of how everything went down since they met again and how everything led to that moment in the 1st chapter?

Wait y’all what do u mean flashback. DID I MISS SOMETHING OR
