Ayato has been your friend for the longest time— he was an absolute angel on earth, as you saw him.

His kindness is what caused your feelings for him to blossom, sadly this love was one-sided, and over time, you found yourself throwing up bloody camellias— Ayato's favorite. Hanahaki Disease, you feared.

"The camellias are in bloom this season," Ayato sighs softly, grazing his lithe fingers along the petals of a freshly bloomed camellia.

He had no idea you were suffering because of him.
