Now that I’m rereading it, I understand my highschool self when I read this I was uncomfortable because of their age gap. I do understand that the ML didn’t groom him and is just there by his life, but it is still kind of weird for him to like the MC after liking the MC’s uncle. I was very annoyed then and also now cause damn, he was telling the MC that he’s not a replacement but if all those years that he thought the MC like him and keeps comparing them. Isn’t he still an asshole then?
