hanahaki au. :)
this is my first post on my ao3. 'm pretty proud of this piece tbh
you, on your dying breath, confessed your love to the gardener, emma. strings of incoherent words sputtered out your lips along with petals and blood.
emma in return could utter nothing but apologies. "i'm sorry, i'm sorry, i'm sorry," as she held you in her arms.
you mustered a warm smile up at her, "don't be sorry. it's not your mistake that i loved you."
although it's really a bad time to lighten up the mood, it was a success and emma let out a hearty chuckle. she planted a kiss atop your forehead as you whispered one final breath, "i love you."
the gardener sat still for a while, her body wracking, trembling — not with sobs, no. suppressed laughter broke through the air from her lungs. her tight grip on your body wore off as she wiped the tears— not ever from sorrow— of joy that pricked her eyes.
" ah, it's such a shame, really. i feel so sorry for you."
"so sorry that you fell for me."
"but i must thank you too, i guess."
"oh, so it's sunflowers this time? although it doesn't fit in my red garden.. it's still pretty nonetheless! so i'll keep you, love."
and so, she trudged on, carrying your body to its destined grave — or rather, planting spot — she had prepared beforehand.
the setting sun's rays kissed emma's face as she tended to her garden, with that triumphant grin marring her face. as though she had witnessed no death just a while ago, but rather an offering of flowers one does to a person they're courting.
