Ren Greens:

I looked at the door, I forgot closed the door. I wiped my mouth of the blood, and I got up quickly. " Caleb, why did you follow me? " I asked to me with scared tone in my voice. " Do you have the disease? " He asked to me, and I pushed pass him. I walked away from the bathroom and I went to my room. I closed the door and I locked it. I can't let anyone know, I need to tell Leah that Caleb knows.

Then I hear some knocking on the door, " Ren, are you okay? " Caleb's voice asked and I was silent. He kept knocking, " Please talk to me, we're friends right? " That word, I don't know if we are friends after he shouted at me. I don't know anymore, he said I can think about it. My back slide on the door down and I sat on the floor. I don't know what to say at all.

" Ren, you know we can talk. Please, I can just call your sister. Please open the door, " he asked to me and I was silent. I didn't move at all, I didn't want to answer my door. I want to call Leah and I got up, I grab my phone. Then I went to my contacts and I found Leah's number. Then I called her and I waited for her to answer, next thing she did answer.

L: " Hey Ren, are you okay? Sounds like you are panicking."

R:" He knows, Caleb knows I have the disease. I tried to lie to him earlier when he came and when I went to the bathroom to vomit. He saw it.

L: " This is bad, this is really bad. But I know what to do, I need you listen to me. Okay?"

R: " Okay."

L: " You get Caleb out of there before I get there. If he is still there, then get him to leave. Okay, by saying you are too busy. If that doesn't work then, you have to face him and tell him to leave."

R: " But he will be concerned about me."

L: " wow, I never thought he ever care for you since Caleb shouted at you, which was two years ago."

R: " I really thought you care about that guy."

L: " The guy broke your heart like twice. But do you want to give him a fucking chance?"

I mean she was right. I really don't know, I wish I could. But he is the reason I have the hanahaki disease.

R: " I want to give it a shot. Maybe one chance, if he blows it up. I guess we can't be like friends, and I know the outcomes."

L: " Okay, just get him to leave the dorm."

Then she hung up on me and I unlocked my door. Caleb was still there and he looked down on me. He hugged me and I was surprised. Really I was. I didn't want to cry, he was my best friend once. But I don't know anymore, we were friends. Caleb was my crush and still is. I never tell how I feel because he has a girlfriend and I was going to be a single or die. " So you do have the disease, after all. Why didn't you tell me? " He demanded to me with a worried tone and I pushed him away.

" Because you shouted at me, those words you said struck with me for two years. I tried to talk to you after the fight , but you kept ignoring me. So I stop trying, what is the point? You said you became my friend out of pity. We were nothing, then classwork partners. We need to finish this essay, plus we were never friends from the beginning because you became my friend out of pity."

He looked shocked, " I know what I said, but I was mad and stress out at the time. Why can't you forgive me? " He asked to me and he knew I can hold grudges for a very long time. Plus I can't forgive him yet, but I like him still. That's why I have the fucking disease, I will never get rid of this until we get the money to pay my treatment. This is my fault, Leah now has to work hard and me as well. If I never fell for Caleb, maybe just maybe I could have protect my fucking heart from a heartbreak. I don't know right now.

" I can't just can't because of my reasons, Caleb. You are right about me, I am fucking overdramatic tranny person. You should go and once you finish that part of the essay. Send it to me, " I explained to him and he was concerned for me. I led to the door and he was about to leave then look at me. " Can we at least be friends, blooming flower? " He asked to, but without hesitation, I slammed the door at his face. 

I sighed with sad tone. I love him still, but once I get the treatment. I don't have to worried about my feelings for him. I know I will lose the feeling of love, but this is the best choice for me and my life. I don't want my parents to grief over me and same for Leah. We already lost Lily and Louis to leukemia, if only I took the offer. I hate myself so much for not taking it. Now, they are gone. I went to the kitchen to make some food for myself. The soup that the doctor recommend for me.

Caleb Rose-brown:

They just slammed the door on me. I can understand what they going through. But I want to know why they are acting like this. I need to find out, but I do know that they have the disease. I need to get to the bottom of this. I wonder who is the person they like and this person doesn't like them back ( Caleb, you are so oblivious). 

But I wondered why they act different when Leah mentions Lily and Louis. I wonder what happened to those two. I need to find out why Ren is acting so strange. Now I just found out they have the disease. But why was they getting so defensive about it then? I need to find out what is going on with Ren.
