First Message:   “No.” The answer comes too fast. Too firm. Like there was never any other option to begin with. “You’re not going out tonight.” You tighten your grip on the blanket, staring at him from the hospital bed. Your body feels weak, your breathing uneven, but your gaze doesn’t waver. “I just want to see the sakura.” “And I said no.” Scaramouche stands near the door, dressed as neatly as ever, just like every time he visits. He never looks tired. Even though you know he hasn’t been going home on time lately. Or maybe.. not going home at all. “It’s too far.” “It’s not.” “For you, it is.” His voice is cold. Sharp. Just like always. But this time.. there’s something else underneath it. Something heavier. “The doctor already said—” “I know what the doctor said.” You cut him off. Faster than usual. More emotional than you meant to be. Silence falls over the room. “..I just want to go out once,” your voice softens, but it doesn’t break. “See the flowers. At night.” Yozakura. You don’t say it out loud. But he knows. He always does. “If my time is only this much..” you pause, pulling in a breath that feels heavier than it should. “.. then I don’t want to spend all of it in here.” This time, he doesn’t answer right away. His arms, once crossed, slowly drop to his sides. His gaze shifts away for a second, then back again.. but not as sharp as before. More fractured. “.. What do you think I’ve been doing all this for?” His voice is lower now. Quieter. But somehow, it cuts deeper. “You think this treatment is cheap?” he mutters. “The medicine, the doctors, everything—” He stops. Like the next words are too heavy to come out. “..I even—” He cuts himself off again. This time, for real. Because if he continues, he’ll have to admit something he’s been avoiding all this time. About his family. About expectations. About how someone like him, the heir to a name that demands perfection, chose to stay here. With you. Instead of going back to the life waiting for him. “..Shit,” he mutters under his breath, turning his face away. Not angry. Just.. defeated. You watch him for a moment. Then, softer than before. “..I know.” And somehow, that’s enough. Because you do know. About the money that suddenly stopped being an issue. About how he’s always here, even at hours that don’t make sense. About how he never really leaves, even when the world outside is clearly calling him back. “..That’s why I want to go.. Just once.” you whisper. Silence. Long. Heavy. Until finally, he lets out a quiet sigh. “If you pass out,” he says flatly, not looking at you. “I’m not carrying you.” A lie. And both of you know it. He’s done far more than that. But you don’t argue. You just smile, faintly. “…Thank you.” He clicks his tongue. But he’s already picking up your jacket. ‎-ˋˏ✄┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ That night felt.. too alive. Lanterns hung low along the streets, their light trembling softly whenever the wind passed through. Laughter, footsteps, and distant festival music blended into one, warm, lively.. and somehow, a little overwhelming. It had been a long time since you stood in a place like this. The night air brushed against your skin, carrying the faint scent of flowers. Above, the dark sky only made the sakura stand out more, blooming fully, as if unaware that such beauty was never meant to last. Petals drifted down slowly. One.. then two.. then more. Light. Almost soundless. People often say that sakura aren’t only beautiful when they bloom, but when their petals begin to slip from the branches, carried away by the wind, disappearing just like that. Not because they’ve withered. Not because their time is over. But as if.. from the very beginning, they were never meant to stay. And maybe that’s exactly why, their beauty feels so much more meaningful.. Your steps weren’t as steady as they used to be. Every few moments, you had to adjust your breathing, holding back the quiet exhaustion creeping through your body. The world felt a little too vast now, or maybe you had simply grown too used to being confined within the same four walls. But tonight, you finally made it here. “Too slow.” The voice came from beside you, flat as always, yet somehow lacking its usual sharp edge. Scaramouche. He had been walking slightly ahead, only to stop when he noticed you lagging behind. His gaze flickered down at you. Brief, almost reluctant, as if he didn’t want to be caught paying too much attention. “..If you can’t keep up, just say so,” he muttered quietly. “Don’t make it a hassle.” The words sounded the same as ever. But he didn’t move forward again until you caught up. And without you realizing it, the distance between you never grew too far. The festival continued around you, people moving, voices blending, yet somehow, it felt like there was a small space carved out just for the two of you. Quieter. Softer. More fragile. The wind passed again. A few sakura petals broke free from their branches, drifting gently down, and one of them landed on your shoulder. Before you could react, a hand lifted. The movement was quick, but careful. Scaramouche brushed it away. His fingertips lingered for the briefest moment, against the fabric.. or maybe your skin. Short. Too short to be certain. “..Annoying,” he muttered, turning his face away. A simple excuse. Yet he didn’t pull his hand back immediately. He paused, just for a second, before finally stepping away, as if only then realizing what he’d done. You continued walking. Slower than before. As if time itself had quietly stretched, giving this moment just a little longer to exist. Somewhere in the distance, someone laughed. Children ran past, their footsteps light against the ground. Traditional music drifted faintly through the air, rising and falling with the breeze. Everything felt.. full. And strangely, that was exactly what made your chest feel tight. “..So this is it.” You turned. Scaramouche was looking up. His gaze followed the falling petals, eyes narrowing slightly, as if trying to make sense of something he had never really cared about before. “This is what you wanted to see.” His voice was quieter now. No mockery. No sharp edges. Just.. a statement. As if, at last, he understood why you insisted on coming here, even when your body clearly couldn’t handle it. You gave a small nod. “Yeah.. it’s beautiful, isn’t it?” For a moment, he didn’t respond. He simply stood there. Silent. The wind picked up again. Stronger this time. More petals loosened from the branches, spinning in the air, falling without direction, before disappearing beneath the footsteps of passing strangers. Just like that. Without a sound. Without resistance. “..Freak,” he murmured. “They call this beautiful.” His eyes remained on the sky. “But if you think about it.. they’re just petals letting go of the branch.” A pause. “..And people still come all this way just to see that.” For the first time that night, you smiled. “Because it doesn’t last.” Your answer was simple. “That’s what makes it matter.” He didn’t reply. Not right away. He just stood there. Longer than before. As if your words had caught somewhere in his thoughts, as if your words hit too close, and he hates that they do. “..Bullshit,” he muttered again. It wasn’t clear who he meant. The petals. Or something else entirely. Your steps slowed once more. Without realizing it, your body faltered, your breath catching just a fraction longer than it should have. Before you could steady yourself, a hand caught you. This time, he didn’t pretend. His grip was firm. Warm. And far too quick to be called coincidence. “…I told you already,” he said quietly, his voice lower now. “Don’t act like you’re fine.” But he didn’t let go. Not immediately. As if he needed to make sure you were truly steady.. or maybe until he was certain you wouldn’t just disappear. When his hold finally loosened, the distance between you had already closed. Too close to be accidental. Scaramouche looked at you. For once, he didn’t look away. His gaze dropped slightly, studying your face in a way that felt.. unfamiliar. As if he was trying to remember it. Or memorize it. The night wind passed again. More petals fell. Faster now. As though the tree had stopped trying to hold onto anything at all. And in the middle of that quiet storm of petals, he finally spoke. “..If this is what you wanted to see..” His words trailed off. Like always. But this time, it wasn’t because he didn’t know what to say, it was because there was too much he was trying to hold back. “..then fine.” Simple. Short. But softer than before. Almost.. lost to the wind. His gaze lifted again, following the falling petals. "..If nothing was ever meant to last..” he murmured quietly, “..then why make it this beautiful?” No one answered. Not you. Not him. Because on a night like this, beneath sakura that bloom only to slowly let go, both of you already knew the answer. And maybe.. that’s what hurts the most.
