What should I say about this, the title is misleading

• • The one who always start something is MC

• • fMC is not a pe*vert

• • Lack of lovey-dovey sugar doze (seriously, I read this story with poker face cuz it's too flat of relationship)

• • They life like a sibling, even they don't want to hand-holding

• • They don't want to tell to their friends about their relationship (idk why jap author always did this cliche, I hate this so much cuz I fed up)

• • Ironically their friends start dating after 2 weeks & already kissed each other without care about surrounding, and there our MC & fMC didn't even want to hand-holding

This is what I got after 20 chapter, im a bit pleased with the few early chapter about fast paced plot but suddenly the plot is slowing down to 3 chapter for 1 day (on story) & their relationship is stagnant... boring

I don't know why they both don't feel love for each other for their 18 years childhood friend, I even still remember I love my childhood friend when im on elementary school

But maybe this is the case on 1:100000000

If this pace continue I can picture they would start to kiss on the cheek after 3 month, kiss on the lips after 1 year, French kiss after 2 years

& had s*x after 5 years

I hope im wrong, cuz I had to hold myself for continue to reading it... maybe im not cuz author just post 63 chapter for 3 years

Waste of good premise if I may say

This is a novel for no one.

You want something deep? Not this.

You want something le*d? Not this.

... more>> You want something sweet? Not this.

It's so flat, no progress, the story try to emphasize "going at their own pace" which is fine, but also really f*cking weird, these mf has been friend for over 10 years, what's there more to learn about each other? You can't even feel the love between these two, it also doesn't help that the interaction are as interesting as looking at paint drying on a wall because they have absolutely no f*cking personality, past or insecurities, like, that's the bare minimum.

And you thought there'd be some drama or conflict to brought the two closer or something since it doesn't have anything interesting, disappointing to say the least. I got clickbaited by the title.

TL;DR clickbait title, boring interaction, no progress, zero personality characters. <<less

It's light and as subaru said it's like a gentle wind telling a story, although there is one really worthwhile theme.

The characters aren't fully comfortable at first, didn't really think of eachother as more than possible options, and then we see their work to make their relationship pay off spectacularly even quite early on. It's a nice change of pace to see characters actively work to make a healthy relationship and consult the adults around them about it rather than being mindlessly lovey-dovey and likely unstable in the long run...... more>> if WN/LN logic goes unapplied of course. <<less

It's a nice read if you want something light yet ignites a bit of warmth to your heart. Its not so deep its more like a gentle wind telling a story.
