It had been a good 30 minutes since i started observing that man water those flowers in the garden. He showed there almost everyday. But because of my tinted glasses, he never seemed to acknowledge my presence on the other side of this glass. As much as I'm against staring at people for too long, i really liked doing it myself. It'd be awkward if he saw me. But His form was so captivating. Like an angel. He looked sad. I wonder why. I've seen many people living in this residence. But i never saw him around in person. Maybe he works here? My eyes glistened with curiosity.

He's so beautiful from the back, i wouldn't be suprised if he's twice as more angelic from the front.
"hm, i guess it wouldn't hurt to get to know him. " a delicate smile made it's way on my lips. Determined to meet him, i hop off my bed and quietly made my way outside. Before i set my bare foot out in the garden, I felt tiny cold little droplets of water collide on my skin. I look up outside to meet the sky crying.

Gladly there was an umberalla stand right next to the door. Smiling, i grabbed it and opened it. Again i hesitated. That man didn't seem to notice the light rain. If he stood there for long he might get soaked. Worse, get sick too. Mentally slapping myself i tiptoed his way. Again, he didn't notice me at all. His back was facing me after all. Silly me. I stretch my arm over his taller frame in attempt to give him a dry roof under the chilly wet weather.

He was lost in his thoughts. How long had it been since he last smiled? The flowers were the only thing that reminded him of you. The real you. The way the petals shined and showed off their beautiful colors. The way they smelled. Everything about them reminded him of you. The man had grown pretty skinny. The gang was worried about him. He hid himself from you and the gang in shame. He blamed himself for the condition you were in.

He knew he was gonna soak in the rain and get sick. But it didn't bother him. He'd been sick already after losing you. Nothing else really mattered to him. Everyone was safe and happy thanks to you. But the price he paid for living was lossing you. He thought.
Everything comes with a price. Maybe this was it.

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

Shadow coated over my hands and the flowers. I finally came back to senses realizing i had a visitor. I looked up to see an umberalla very close to my head. So i assumed it was someone who was shorter than me. Could it be trish? But she's probably busy. Who knows. I sighed and turned around. My eyes broadned. It had been such a long time seeing her. It felt so fake. As if i was hallucinating. There she was, smiling, trying to keep me under the umbrella out of the cold rain.

"you know, you're gonna catch a cold some day"

Her presence alone made me feel that warmth again. But Her voice melted me. I couldn't really speak. So i stared.

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

I raised my brow in confusion at the lack of his reply. Maybe he's not a very social person? Well I'll dig the social out of him. I was determined to make this sad man happy. He was indeed absolutely gorgeous. His eyes matched the color of the blue roses that were planted around the garden. But they held a very strong emotion in them. Blue and sad. He looked so tired. Bags under his eyes as if he hadn't slept in a long while. Paler than most people I've seen here in this sunny country.

"hello? You there?, you seem a bit lost"

He blinked a few times before apologizing for starting at me for long. Damn, and here i thought my staring wasn't bad. I should learn a thing or two from him. "it's alright, I'm (y/n), nice to meet you"
I gave out my hand for him to shake. He hesitated but eventually gave in. "ah, i.. I'm bruno, nice to meet you too.." man, I was starting to believe that sadness was contagious. I was beginning to be sad now. "uh, I've been um, kinda seeing you here alot. I haven't seen you with the others so i thought I'd meet you" i smiled once again trying to lighten up the atmosphere around.

"ah, yes. I uh, like gardening"

"i mean it's obvious, tell me about those flowers." i pointed at a row of beautifully yellow pink grown flowers were. "Oh uh, those are dahlias" i started questioning him more. Forgetting why i was there in the first place and completely focused on each flower he educated me about. I didn't want to ask about roses, because they seemed too basic.

"you're forgetting one flower" i looked up at him raising a brow. "huh? Which one?" he looked up towards the rose. "well, i mean roses are pretty basic don't you think?" he looked back at me with a smile. Oh my God his smile was so beautiful. I thought i almost fell off the edge of the world witnessing it. "well, they may be basic but they hold very special properties. This is why everyone loves them" i looked at the flower. "what's so special about it then?"

"Well, they contain a great almost of vitamin C, an important antioxidant for overall health and fighting some serious conditions. They can help increase circulation, fight depression and anxiety, it's almost like a person i knew in my life." he spoke keeping his eye on the girl next to him."a person just as beautiful, special and fragile as that flower".

He felt his cheeks getting wet. He hadn't realized that he started crying again. She looked back at the man, ready to ask a few more questions but her heart broke at the sight of seeing the man in tears. He looked like a fallen angel. She shared and felt the emotions through the man by looking him in the eyes. Until she broke in tears herself remembering How she almost lost the man in a battle right before her eyes.

Subconsciously she dropped the umbrella from her grasp and embraced the man in her small feminine grasp. The man was in shock when it hit him that everything came back to her. After a few moments of her collecting all the scattered memories. She looked up at him with her puffy red face. "stop crying capo, you look like a loser" she grabbed his face and wiped his tears away. "i-i don't deserve you" he held her wrist gently. Away from his face.

"shut up" is all she said before smashing her lips onto his.
