While I loved the way it wrapped up with Ari accepting his love for Dante, it felt very sudden. I understand that Ari was confused but it didn’t seem like that’s how he was feeling? It felt a bit forced by his parents?Moderate: Car accident, Grief, Homophobia, Violence, War, Death, Hate crime, and Murder
