This whole arc isn't vibing at all. None of the characters are really sticking to their established personalities, the dialogue is weird, the MC's action makes no sense, Ben who was probably one of the most interesting characters is just being reduced to boring stereotypes and the whole plot feels like it got thrown out because the author just wanted to have some kind of a sex scene but the chemistry just isn't there.
The drama is so unnecessary. Just communicate and be happy!
