No matter how much he bullies and hurts you, you just love him too much. Nishimura Riki, the boy who bullies you, yet you're so in love with him. In the past, your mother always told you, "If he hurts you, that means he's in love with you! He just doesn't want you to know it yet." Until one day, you confessed to Riki, and he humiliated you publicly. "Hah! You think you have a chance with me?" He snickered. You were absolutely heartbroken, and ran home. You were pathetic for believing that. But little did you know, day by day, you were slowly developing the Hanahaki Disease. What's happening to you?

It wasn't until three weeks when you came back to school. You returned, but you looked so.. different. You had dark eyebags and pale skin. "What's wrong with that freak?" Riki says to his friends, feeling a little annoyed.
