After all of this flashback chapters, I'm at my limit.
I just feel bad for everyone in this story. This is seriously missing tragedy tag (/TДT)/
This story ended up being completely different from what I expected. It has such dark tones. I've thought it'd only be a mother's redemption story but it has hardships of motherhood, being in a postpartum depression and results of a loveless marriage. Wow no wonder she did in her first life. I'm not condoning her child neglect but now that I understand her perspective, I cant help but really feel sorry for her. The level of mental breakage she's been through I wouldn't even be able to survive.
What I cant understand ,at least so far, is why the fuck Harsen ignoring her every action. I cant believe this piece of shit is turning a blind eye to it all and in effect ignoring her which further triggers her depression. It was Harsen who broke her. I mean; God this is too much. She was getting more and more anxious from her depression. Ercella was mentally and emotionally fucked, no wonder she took it out on her son T^T Postpartum depression is really scary :(["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>
I was really bored and had reading slump for these days, thats why i choose to read some manhwa lately. And then i got this. MADE ME CRY LIKE A BTCH EVEN ONLY ON CHAPTER 28.
EVERYTHING IS SO COMPLICATED. The mom (FL) die because poison or something then she realized that her relationship with her son was so bad. Then with the power of IDK she's back to 3 years ago and want to fix their relationship. It works. THANK GOD. BUT THEN SHIT TAKE THE WHEEL. The story continues with her flashback 'why she's so cold with her son and why her relationship with her husband going bad' etc. DAMN. THE ANGST.
The wife just want her husband to be with her. The husband just want his wife to say 'i love you too' to him. And the son, just want to know is his mom are regret for giving birth to him.
EVERYTHING IS SO SAD. I'm so sad. I really want to hug every characters here. Its so early chapter and i cant wait any longer.
Man this made me cry and since it's some time in the early morning, I feel like explaining a little bit about why it hit me so much. At it's core, the story is about regret. Though it starts off as a mother's regret about neglecting her child, you get the perspectives of both father and child that really paints their relationships in a grey area. There is no character that is strictly in the wrong or the right, they just have their choices.
The MC Ecrella suffering from post partum depression is really heartbreaking and really an under used plot point in this genre. To see some of the things I've experienced in art form really is something else.
It definitely wouldn't strike me as everyone's cup of tea, but it's certainly part of mine.
This is too angsty for my own health so I spoiled me the happily ever after end and I drop it. Seriously I cannot stand the postpartum depression trope it's just too much. Yes I am a weakling.
Buuut Just imagine the fl looking at his baby and asking herself why she doesn't love him. It's heartbreaking and I just cannot get it out of my head, and I spoiled myself aaaand there's a lot A LOT of more angst. I can't stand it so I am gone
I think it's the first history that I drop for this reason
I honestly hate this one. The mother (Protagonist) is leaving a bitter aftertaste in my mouth. Neglecting your child in your previous life and blaming him for taking your "youth and freedom" for the choice you made for yourself is just BS to me. I know she's given another chance to make things "right" but it still doesn't. She regressed when her son was already a teenager, near being an adult. The scars, the trauma, and the pain she inflected cannot be overlooked just because she's acting nice. Maybe I'm mirroring myself but it's making me uncomfortable. Her approach is just making me angry. I don't know. Maybe it's just me but I'll try to give it another chance. After all, this is the third if it still has a bitter taste... I'll drop it.
I’ve been reading a lot of manga, manhwa and webtoons. This one really stood out. We follow our lead as she navigates her life and marriage. There is a questioning of her assumptions, her mistakes and her dreams and desires.
There was a complexity here which was both painful and honest. I started the second season but I’m going to take my time with this. This made me cry 😢
