Frankly I liked the way the story of Watari and Kyougo was handle. It showed mostly realism. It wasn't perfectly handled but it showed it was acknowledged and handled in the way which the MC's saw fit. It showed the MC's journey and struggle to overcome that trauma. Yes it's tough to wait for someone for 6years but this was good for them if they ever wanted to have a healthy relationship. They needed to be apart to heal and reflect on what happened in the past. Because when that trauma occured, they continued as if nothing happened instead of acknowledging what had happened. Which caused their relationship to become suffocating and toxic. And after years of being in that toxic relationship, Kyougo finally cracked and left. Watari didn't stop him because he felt guilty as he knew what he did was wrong and he had no right to stop Kyougo from leaving. I can see that Watari was remorseful and has since repented and has been waiting for his lovers return patiently hoping to amend things. This worked out well because finally after 15years since the rape, they could finally move on and Kyougo could finally reciprocate Watari's love. I'm happy for them. But Rape is not OK and some people stay with that person because it's someone they are close too. Such is the case of Watari and Kyougo. They were close friends and Kyougo saw Watari as an ally and an escape from the reality that was going on at his house. That is what I think. Because I don't think Kyougo stayed because he was weak or scared, I think it was more like he needed Watari. Kyougo would rather let Watari do as he pleases with him so long as he stay beside him. Because if he let go/move on it would mean he would be left alone. Hence reason he ignore and never dealt with the rape. But this backfired because it became too suffocating to handle anymore, so he ran away. So on another note, the story I loved the most was Sasa and Hanasaki story. It was so fluffy and cute. They were so adorable and loving. ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ I can't get enough of themლ(´ڡ`ლ)
