    Summary

    As if a switch has been flipped, Ivan does not stop gazing at Till, while Till is the one to skirt away.

    “This might be good for you, though,” Ivan says, his voice gentle, as if each word doesn't tear into Till’s arteries. “You won’t have to deal with this burden for much longer. It’ll pass.”

    “You’re not dead,” Till manages, his voice hoarse. “We'll still be us.”

    For the first time, Till feels waves of terror shake through their profound silence. 

    Ivan gets surgery for his Hanahaki. Till deals with the aftermath.

    Summary

    Till liked to claim that he was just an average 21-year-old trying to survive the horrors of tertiary education. Really, he was barely passing his classes, barely making ends meet, and barely keeping his shit together.

    At least, that’s what he liked to believe. Others couldn’t say that they felt the same.

    To Mizi, he was her hardworking bestfriend whose efforts never betrayed him. The way his passion, determination and dedication shone through in all that he did. Till was a hardworker that deserved every single blessing that was bound to come his way.

    To Sua, Till was his girlfriend’s questionable childhood friend, one that she initially felt jealous of because of their strong bond, only to realise soon enough that it was because of Till’s heart. He was caring to the people he loved, protective and kind towards those lucky enough to be in his affections.

    To Ivan, Till was everything. No words could capture just how much he meant to him.

    But that was neither here nor there. What mattered was, in this universe, that’s all there was to it. There’s no catch, no cruel promises of hope.

    There were no aliens, no stage where they fought to death.

    There was only life and the mundanity of it.
