Got it but, her actions and reactions, when viewed from the perspective of a reader, suggest otherwise.
Franklin_Nwakamma:Well, atm she is just seeking friendship with him and the only reason he's sort of soft with her is because she reminds him of someone from his past plus she's never treated him like everyone else. As for the matter of overshadowing the FL in terms of screen time, that's not going to happen, I don't want to drop any spoilers.
Honestly, I would've asked the same question if you hadn't clarified it's single FL. The MC seems well aware of Maya's intentions, yet he continues to engage with her. It's puzzling why he entertains her advances despite knowing she's not just seeking friendship. In a hypothetical movie adaptation, Maya might even overshadow the female lead in screen time and how close she is to the MC, potentially leading to confusion for viewers. It might be easier to categorize the story as a harem, given Maya's prominent role and unclear characterization.

Moonorchid_:Regardless, your characters' personalities are relatable, they don't give me a feeling of some robots running through the book, well done. I will have to rate you properly.
