I was alone in my room, feeling lost in a whirlwind of emotions. Hanabi occupied every corner of my thoughts, but I couldn't figure out what to do about us. It was a suffocating love and I couldn't handle it on my own anymore. Was I feeling insecure about all of this? Was I scared? After a moment of hesitation, I decided to message him, one of the few guys I could tolerate.

"Hey... Can we talk?" I stared at the phone screen. Honestly I wasn't sure if it was a smart idea to contact him.
