Short but sweet novella. I loved that it was from Kenji’s POV, he’s my absolute favourite and I can never get enough of the thoughts inside his head.
I honestly cried a lot during this, the way that Kenji’s thoughts are so different than the way he acts is honestly so sad. I hated that he thought that nobody cares about him, but I loved the way he still defends and cares for Warner.
Their friendship (?) is the best thing ever. I love them so much, and no matter how they act towards each other I know that deep down they have love for each other too.
