I sat back on the cushioned chair, staring into...nothingness. I knew I wasn't blind or anything but the things I was seeing didn't make sense anymore. Maybe I'm blind alright. Does that matter?

I don't think so.

The room I stood was engulfed by an eerie silence for a few minutes as none of us spoke. I stared at the huge wall-clock behind Doctor Min and waited for the minute hand to move but it didn't. Why is it taking so long to end everything else as well?

"Um..Seokjin?" I almost jumped out of my skin, when the man in front of me called my name.

I must've looked like a freak with that unbearable expression on my face. Doctor Min heaved a sigh and leaned in a little to give a pat on my shoulder.

"We're gonna make it, okay?" he told me in a soft voice. Like the problem is gonna effect both of us. "You still have a chance to.. well, find a cure for this disease."

I stared at him with widened eyes. "Yeah?" I croaked.

Doctor Min smiled.

Okay, now Doctor Min smiling did mean something. Cuz he usually kept his emotions under control, being all silent and professional. A smiley Min Yoongi is someone you should be a little careful about.

"Yes," he said, now backing down to his grumpy look. "Three chances. Or you could say three options."

"I'm listening." I mumbled, absentmindedly.

"First one," Doctor Min unfolded three fingers, folding each back to make a point. "You can do a surgery to remove the plant inside you. Second, you can forget about the surgery and die pathetically which I do not recommend. Third and last, you may try to make him love you back, the way you wanted."

Nonsense. That's what I thought the second he finished his explanation. But this is Doctor Min, we're talking about. The brilliant neurologist plus my best friend. And I was positive he's not crazy. Not with that smile.

"Okay," I said sighing. "Let's go for the surgery."

Doctor Min smiled again, this time more like a grimace. "It's not that easy Seokjin. Removing the plant have it's own consequences."

I waited for him to elaborate.

"After removing the plant, you'll lose every ounce of romantic feelings you've ever had towards this... boy. Every single bit of it. Would that be okay?"

I thought about it. Of course I didn't want them to go away. Now why would I? I've loved him like a fool for almost an year and do I really want to forget him at all? Because of a god damn plant rooting down my lungs, trying to choke me to death? Which makes me cough camellia petals all the time?

I don't think so.

I got up from the chair to pick my coat. I didn't bother to wear it as I threw it over my shoulder.

"Seokjin?" Doctor Min whispered. I looked at him. "You have to decide. You know that, right?"

I stared at him for a moment then, turned back heading towards the door. I slid it open and stepped out.

I'd rather die than forgetting him.

My unrequited love.

Who happens to be my only brother's lover.

Jeon Jungkook.

My little bunny. The sweetest of 'em all. Someone who should rather be in heaven.

Scratch that unrequited part. Add impossible. Yes, now that explains it all.

A/N: Sorry for unpublishing my previous book. I'll put it up again as soon as I can. This book would be short and completed soon cuz I've already finished half of it. This book isn't all about Hanahaki. Written apart from a typical plot.
