Honestly, I don’t get the point of this story. The idea behind the plot is fine but not only is poorly executed but it also starts at nowhere and goes to nothing.

And why the extra chapter has more development than the actual story?

I feel like its way too short, these things happen irl and it could take years for the person to stand up for themselves. You can't have a character develop this fast, and with their type passive personality this type of thing can happen again and again in diffrent ways, a person can't change overnight.

Well I like it!

There are soo many stories where the protagonist stays a punching bag until someone saves them, or even worse they end up in a romance with someone that tortured them.

This is a realistic account of what happens when you hang out with bad people who want to hurt you. There's never gonna be a clean ending. No apologies. No karmic retribution. But she got out early and found her happiness <3

I agree, this was a short and sweet read.
I personally think it was a good decision on the author's part to keep the plot short instead of dragging it out, though it might've been better as a oneshot. It's no masterpiece, but it definitely isn't a bad read either.

I think the only thing missing is some development for the other girls, because after she trashed their apology, it seemed that it finally clicked to the blonde girl what trashy person she was being

Awweew sweet thanks fot sharing

I think it is very realistic. At the end she realizes all the kindness showed to her is but a mirage then move on.

Thank you so much for your translation

My thoughts regarding her friends:

Spoiler

She could have said that she accepts their apology, but still doesn't want to be friends with them again. Them showing even a little remorse is a good sign, but that doesn't reverse the bad experience of the protagonist.

I guess its not very good in the eyes of some people but i havent really felt as much as this since Nagata Kabis stuff.
