No. 

Winter had come too soon again.

He would never have enough sunflowers to make this place warmer, more friendly.

He would never have enough for people to befriend him.

A wilted once-yellow petal sat in his shaking gloved hands as his shaky breath curled in the cold air. 

It would freeze soon if he wouldn't take it inside, just like the rest of them did.

He heard once that people considered frozen flower petals art, but... They considered his own horrors.

Why?

Why was everyone convinced it was always cold, always dreary, always murderous?

It was nice and sunny in the summertime... But that never lasted long.

"Little petal, what do you think? What should I do for people to spend time with me, for them to befriend me? You're a good friend, but you die so fast..."

There was no answer. 

Why would there be?

There was never really anyone to answer him.

His next words were choked; 

"Sorry if I'm speaking so glumly with you in your last moments, you don't deserve that." 

Tears swam in his soft, never hard and cold, violet eyes and streaked down, causing an uncomfortable coldness on his face.

Much like the one in his chest, in his heart that struggled to warm itself to happiness.

"One wonderful day, I'll do something that'll make everyone want to come here, and be friends with me, and to look at you and admire you."

"I promise that."

His hand closed gently around the petal, almost protectively. He brought it to his heart, head bowed as a few tears were fast enough to drip onto the snow, then freeze there. 

Smile.

Smile, Russia.

Smile through the pain.

Tearily, he forced a smile onto his lips.

"I'll miss you, my friends."

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-

WHY DID I DO THISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS-

I DO NOT KNOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW-

Welp @biiiiiiiiiish go wallow in sorrow mwahahaha- 

By the way, if the speech seems a bit off or weird, is because I said everything in Russian in my head then translated it to English, to make it seem even more...

Russian-y? I dunno

Because I didn't want to type it all in Russian for your convenience, obviously, so....

Yeah

Uh

Don't kill me s'il vous plait
