I'm trying to visualize how his hair looked like if it's not tied.
And i know it's a normal premise in a romance story that a person loves/likes someone for years without their feelings being returned but does that really exist irl? I don't think i ever have unrequited feelings for that long
Dude took 9 years to become someone "worthy" of his crush only to revert to sulking & lashing out when she (understandably) didn't recognize him lmao. Professionally he might have surpassed her but it doesn't look like he's done much emotional growth since they last met. Take another 9 years my guy!!!
When you take 9 years and don't grow 1 mentally. The guy grew up through his puberty and is angry cause she didn't recognize him after 9 years after he dyed his fucking hair.
WRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Take an extra 9 years my dude and grow up.
