"Of course I talk about you to people, Wy. I love you. You are my first love." Maybe not his only or his last, but he is his first, and Jesper feels that way, truly. Wylan changed who he is, how he saw himself, what he thought of himself. Colm said he was good for him, and he was right. The fact Wylan seems surprised about that means that he messed it up, not saying this earlier.

Jesper waits instead of jumping in after the why, letting Wylan decide what he wants to say. It's not easy. None of this is easy. Wylan's a pain point for him, has been since he arrived here all that time ago.

"Because I don't want to hurt you." Jesper reaches out to take his hand. "I promised you monogamy back home and I can't do it here. I love other people too, but it doesn't change that I love you. My heart isn't cut into pieces of a pie." That's also not how he saw it before, when it was just them either, he's always had a big open heart. "You were jealous when I kissed Kuwei thinking it was you. You might not be able to handle this."
