### Summary
In a stark departure from the previous chapter's domestic tranquility and "sugary sweetness," the narrative pivots to confront Kamin's deeply toxic family life. The story reintroduces his abusive grandmother and a mother who has suddenly reappeared after a long absence, plunging Kamin back into a suffocating environment of neglect and emotional abuse. Reader commentary reveals a hostile dynamic where the two women are constantly at odds with each other, and expresses sympathy for Kamin's deceased father, who reportedly died from overwork while trying to provide for his son. Faced with this renewed turmoil, Kamin makes a decisive move in his healing journey, resolving to break free from his family's toxicity. Rather than attempting to support them, he chooses to prioritize his own happiness and future with Kanggo. This step toward establishing firm boundaries and potentially going "no-contact" is met with overwhelming encouragement, marking a critical turning point as Kamin actively works to protect the stable, loving life he is building for himself.
