petals. -𝘕𝘑𝘔.

one.

the sun shone bright on her face. Though she wasn't feeling giddy at all. The thought of meeting her crush dreaded her. He had a girlfriend. It was wrong, so wrong.a

She could only sigh and walk fowards, her best friend calling out her name happily. "Youngmin!" He yelled loudly causing people to stare at them. "Renjun be quiet jesus" she slapped the back of his head making him glare at her. "Oh yeah Jaemin says he wants to come with us, he's in the bathroom right now."

Everything froze, she went blank. Na Jaemin. It was him. The name which gave her butterflies every time it was mentioned, but a crack would form when she heard it. Renjun knows her little love story with him, but he still invited him - or unwillingly invited him over.

It doesn't matter though, cause she is going to have to-

"Renjun! Youngmin!" Jaemin ran up to the pair, smiling like always. Youngmin didnt want to look at him, one look she would either break and fall deeper.

"Aha yeah....i have class so uhm-" "Jae!" A sweet voice called out to him. Knowing who that certain person was she immediately apologised to Renjun and ran away.

She made her way onto the rooftop, to be met with a familiar hair cut. She knew who it was. He had dark blue hair with a undercut, she couldn't lie, he was definitely a very handsome - or you could say, hot boy. Though he wasn't her type.

"Jeno" she said walking up to the railings right next to him. "What brings you up here this time?" Jeno said looking at her.

"I don't know how i'll manage to get over him every time i look at him it's like i went back to square one. As if im falling in love again." Jeno could only nod at her words.

"It's hard isn't it? Having to see Jaemin with Minhae." Youngmin only nodded, she didn't know what to say anyways.

"I feel trapped Jen. I don't know how can i ever pull myself back out." She sighed and looked down at the students conversing with eachother.

"I dont know if I'm a lot of help, but i don't want you to end up throwing up petals. I'm worried for you." Jeno explained to her softly caressing her head.

"I can't promise anything, I'm just falling deeper and deeper." She cried out silently, slowly breaking down. Jeno pulled her into his embrace knowing her heart was broken from the moment she knew Jaemin and Minhae were dating. 

she was hopeless, she didn't know what to do, she didn't know how to get help. she only cried in his warm embrace without saying much words other than stuttering a lot.

-time skip-

she walked her way back home quietly, Renjun walking beside her. she often wasn't as quiet as this so he knows something is bothering her deeply. "Min, what happened? Why are you so quiet?" she didn't say anything back, only stared at him and resumed to look at the floor again as if he said nothing.

Renjun often wasn't the type of person to get made at someone, but this was his bestfriend. His bestfriend that he had known for most of his life, and he couldn't bring himself to see her clouded by thoughts that obviously bothered her a lot.

they were getting more and more close to her house, and they haven't said a word to each other yet. It ticked him off big time, but he knew, she needed her space to think properly.

They entered Youngmin's property, Renjun waving her a goodbye watching her make her way into the house, and walked away to leave to his own place.

"Mark! I'm hom-" she was cut off by the feeling of something in her throat, forcing to get out. when mark walked to greet his lovely cousin, he was only met which her throwing up delicate yet fragile petals, some cover in her saliva.

He quickly rushed up to her worried sick about her. every since she moved he acted like he was her big brother, he liked the feelings of becoming one anyways.

"Min..." softly, he patted her back to make sure there was nothing else in the mean time. He tried not to cry but he couldn't. he can't let her slip away from his grasp after what happened with his own family. he won't let it happen again.

"Let's get you to your bedroom" Guiding her away from the blueish-purpleish petals. it was beautiful, he can't lie, but the cause was wrong. So wrong.

she didn't have anything to say. she sat on her bed. what was she feeling? happy? sad? surprised? unexpected? she didn't know. she couldn't make clear of her feelings. Mark only watched her contemplate her movements and life. it hurted him. it hurted him a lot to see her like this. he didn't want to admit it, but he had to. he said something that could never be taken back, but they both know how serious this had already become.

"You h-have the hanahaki disease..."
