This reminds me of that one manga where the girl cursed her friend (whom she was in love with) and her friend’s kid ended up being in love with her, and there was that same sort of “do a bit of growing up on your own first, and if you’re still in love with me after, ask me again then.”
And, as with that, I kinda wish we saw the two of them going through their growth arcs, and then letting them grow together so the “ask me again later” would pay off well. I mean, do protags/love interests in these scenarios just… pause their whole lives until they meet again? Are we fast-traveling through time TT^TT
Like, this is neat (as in very concise and tidy) for a two-shot, but my gosh I crave the yearning that happens in between. You have me the ending (or the beginning?), now give me the rest of it. Ya kno?
