i think it’s these types of relationships in stories that get me the most sad bc those two have so much history together. literally been together since high school and have built a bond over their trauma. but it’s also important to remember that this r@pist guy has created a trauma bond with the mc due to their dv relationship. the mc is a victim and with dv victims it always takes a long time to fully leave, here the mc has not fully left even though they’ve broken up. the mc literally says that he will never get over him. during this grape scene we keep on getting these flashbacks bc it shows their deep past and the good moments of their relationship, we keep on seeing the switch between reality and the past. overall i think this story has a good plot line (obviously not the grape) of trying to heal yourself from past trauma while finding new love
