Slow and sad

I felt like this episode was a lot slower than the others so far. We finally caught up to the “present” and part of me is glad that we’re not in the past anymore but I’m also sad because of what’s happening between Taichi and Kohei. To me there’s some miscommunication between them but I think it’s more understandable than other dramas where it’s always based around a second love interest or jealousy. I know the misunderstanding involves Miho, but I don’t think Kohei is upset that Taichi didn’t tell him. Like he is, but I don’t think it’s because he likes Miho. Kohei could think that it’s because Taichi likes Miho, but I don’t think it’s that either. I think the actor for Taichi did exceptionally well for the scene under the bridge when he refused to tell Kohei what Miho said. I completely understand where Taichi was coming from by not telling Kohei, but I’m worried that Miho might try again with Kohei and he won’t realise she’s basically fetishising his disability for her “romantic” fantasy.
