eishin's manga / #Age gap(3)

This was unexpectedly good. The title was giving off warning sirens but Rocco came through with an actual responsible adult decision and decided to not be impulsive and wait for Liam even if he caught feelings as well. I saw that this is uploaded on webtoon where it's colored and there's Julien's story as well. Honestly, I feel bad for him because he does love Liam a lot but what can we do when the other party doesn't feel the same. Personally, I like Liam's personality where he clearly draws the line, no holes barred, on people who confess to him because in my opinion it's more cruel to do it gently and give them the wrong idea to keep holding on. Very short story but pretty good as well in terms of how the two leads' development. I also loved the whole situation with the bestie Stef, good for her for finding her boo as well. A surprisingly green flag plot (delusions were smth tho) for a clearly red flag sounding title.

For a short manga, I didn't expect to see this much plot and I think it's a pretty decent read. Normally I'd stir away from age gaps that're more than 5 years but this one felt okay for me? I guess the time they spent apart helped since Ao didn't really see Asuka grow up. There was less smut than I expected (from seeing that cover) and it's quite wholesome too more than anything.
