Sadly, that's not what happens and they do end up together by the end... and, while I could be ok with that ending cause it is what makes her happiest cause she still loves him, it's the one issue I have with the writing, where I feel it isn't well earned for how fast they get back together compared to when they met up, I mean, it's basically still only been months since she worked there and, in the series' timeline, it's not much more until they end up together.
