Fruits Basket Chapter 44 Discussion

                        ----------------------------------------

                        So we meet Ritsu. His apologetic behavior is frustrating, I hope his self-esteem improves later on. It's hard to imagine he's the son of the woman at the hot springs lol

I am a bit confused right now. It was said in previous chapters that Hatsuharu was in love with Yuki, but it turns out he was secretly dating someone else? I'm not sure I caught on. 



Also, the lady at the hot springs said she had a son several times, so I didn't really get that Tohru didn't realize it. I don't really care much for the monkey, he's a bit annoying even though I usually love monke characters.
