!!! This is exactly how I’m feeling! Like I didn’t realize Song was coming home every two weeks with literal physical injuries (on top of the psychological trauma) — and that Mansa is SEEING IT?! I know talks about money are hard but if you can tell your partner is doing some fucked up stuff to make rent then it seems a conversation worth having??? How have they managed to go on like this for years??? I agree it’s a sign of great writing though. Their emotional immaturity in relationships really shows in this situation. As sweet as these boys are, a relationship where you’re constantly sacrificing yourself to keep things comfortable and are unable to say “this is not working for me” is not healthy

I forgot about the demotion. I forgot that Song is riding dirty in their own neighborhood. Adds another level of complexity that I didn’t think about.

It's so sad these two have just kept burdening themselves thinking they are doing what's best for the other. If they had actually taken the time to talk about what happened, they would have probably seen that an actual option was looking for another place to live. Song is putting himself in danger in order to pay rent at a place that belongs to the council and from which, I imagine, they probably can still be evicted at any moment if the council decided to pass the house to another judge. Yeah, a big, fancy house is nice, but they could have worked on looking for a better deal for both of them. And writing this, I just realized I finally sound like my mother, and that I probably spend too many hours analyzing the situation of two fictional characters. These characters are so well rounded, they feel so real.

Poor boys. I wish they'd had a break in there (Mansa not getting demoted at the night of the party, Elon not showing up so soon). It fits the story, but a few happy days between stresses just so they could've had time to relax together. It's just built up

Poor darlings 😭

The first time you shared the proposal, from Song's perspective, I really disliked Mansa, he seemed so cold and like he hasn't thought about how Song would feel. Now you show his perspective (and I know him better!) it's obvious how much he cares about Song, just how much thought he's putting into accepting this because of Song.

I just want to hug him😭😭😭

Did they personally change because of it? Like did they become more secluded, stoic etc?

Honestly months if not at least a year 😅

Poor boys 😭 I just want hug them and tell them it’s gonna be ok. And also tell them to just be honest and talk to each other. This could save all this misery that’s in front of them. How long did their initial heartbreak last after Song left? Like when will the worst be over? And is there a time of the year where it gets worse (like anniversaries, birthdays)?

Little0cean

so many things influencing his decision now, so much pressure to bear alone 😔 I just wish they could have had an honest conversation with each other before the decision was made, but I can totally see why Mansa and Song both would think they are kind of alone with their problems now, and it's so very sad that life is complicated and messy like this 😔💔 like, one secret kept from the partner "for their good" just snowballs into lifetime of problems and trauma...
