I like a friends to lovers romance and could really appreciate that Rahul—though he loves her—isn’t holding out for her to change her mind or hanging on her every work. He’s a good friend and she’s pretty oblivious,   but also with such strong commitment issues.  

Jasmine kinda redeems herself but she’s probably my least favorite Hibbert character. I get that she has issues to deal with but that’s also not a reason to treat the people you love poorly. And her whole conflict rested on her silly pride when she could have just asked her dad for help. 

I like that their reconciliation was about honesty and communication and Jasmine acknowledging the way she’d been shitty to Rahul.

HEAs and babies 🤌🏾
