Same, I was so invested in their past lives. So much more hurdles, angst, and miscommunication. Not to mention, they were just hotter grown-up LMAO. It would’ve been impossible considering their circumstances, but if they had ran away together or smth that would’ve been the most epic love story with tear-jerking sobs from me. But, this manga is still a great piece of work. Their present lives is them healing and trying to move on and I love that the author decided to focus on that They don’t have to be in hiding or have expectations placed on them

ngl i enjoyed the past story much more than the present lol i do wish we had that as a standalone but this was really cute regardless
