Except happy ever afters don't exist.

Leaving the hospital left you overjoyed, unbelievably excited.

You were home, happy, safe, and loved. Taehyung was with you, what could go wrong?

Except you couldn't bring yourself to touch Tae. He felt like poison, he was everything you had wanted, but for some reason you didn't want to hold him like you had.

"Y/N, are you alright? You're distant." He was confused, faced with something he thought was impossible.

"I'm fine, I just.. I think I need to sleep in my own bed. " You said, smiling before heading to your bedroom and leaving the living room behind.

Your room had been cleaned, the jars of dried cherry blossom petals and flowers sitting by your window.

You lied in bed blasting music through your earbuds as you thought about what could be wrong.

When you got a phone call.

"Hello?" You spoke cautiously.

"Hello, miss. You were a patient in our hospital recently, and in a last minute decision we had proceeded with the surgery to remove your infection. We understood how bad the hanahaki had gotten, and when your brother came in to express his concerns, we had to remove the tree." The nurse on the other end sounded strangely calm.

While your heart was beating out of your chest.

Your brother? What brother?

What surgery?
