SYNOPSIS

Kusuo starts falling for a
boy who adores flowers.

──────

ㅤ"𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐒 𝐌𝐄,

he loves me not,

He loves me,

he loves me not,

he...."

ㅤ"-loves me!" cheered a nasally voice, plucking out the last petal of a flower.

ㅤHis roughed fingers stroked the freshly-torn petals, with mere drops of dew and a lingering humid scent.

ㅤIt was just a simple game, yet it manage to bring immense comfort. To be reaffirmed that his crush does love him, to be so caught up in his childish fantasies - he hadn't realized he tampered with something he should never have.

ㅤHis elated gaze directed elsewhere, further indulging in his silly daydreams, where his eyes couldn't take sight of the misfortunate flower he gave an early end. Head high the clouds, he didn't notice the spilt amber husks he flicked on to the ground - soon, he'd leave them to rot.

ㅤPerhaps, for [ name ], this little game was just to prepare his lovestruck heart for the glaring rejection that'll quickly pass his juvenile heart - as does autumn to winter. This is only a high school crush. I'll get over it in a few months.

ㅤAt least, that's what he thought.

ㅤHis feelings towards Kusuo was something never to escape his lips, never to be known by someone else, never to be revealed to the actual person who's got [ name ] lovestruck. His love and fluttering feelings were only a secret for him to ever know.

ㅤA secret love.

ㅤIn the bubbling language of flowers, Gardenias mean "I love you in secret."

"I wonder if you'd prefer a rose over it?"
