This had potential to be an entertaining romcance movie, but they completley butchered it within the first five minutes. When she was cradling the rat I lost it and burst out laughing. It's so dumb. It's beyond cliché, Rigel and Nica are beyond cliché. The scene in the kitchen where he tells her not to touch him and she asks what happens if she does and he whispers "I won't be able to hold back". Peak writing! This story could have been good if there had been more focus on the orphange, their childhood there, having them interacted more there and Rigel actually had some sort of relationship with her, at least a budding firendship. It needs more depth, actual characters that aren't clichés... basically it should be redone with someone that is capable of writing a good script that has nuance. As of now it's just hilarious because it ticks every box for a badly written wattpad romance.
