I should probably explain the title, shouldn’t I? To start off on a good note, I’d like to say that I came up with the title like 5 minutes ago. I sat and thought for a minute and I was like “oh peaches and petals doesn’t sound too bad.”

I chose peaches because I listened to IU’s Peach on replay and that helped me get through writing the second half. That song is my current favorite. It’s so soft and calming; you should give it a listen!

I chose petals because cherry blossom is my favorite flower. Since I included cherry blossom trees in the story, I decided to include it in the title too.

The title is so insignificant ;’-(

I felt like I should’ve taken the scene where you had an anxiety attack out because it was kind of random. Considering how the situation wasn’t that big, the way you felt seemed over-exaggerated. However, that’s how I feel whenever I have an anxiety attack so even though it’s too much, at least it’s somewhat realistic, right?

I also wanted to take out the scene where you got mad at Minghao and Wonwoo because again, your reaction seemed too extra. But then again, that’s how I would feel. If I sat next to a stranger who laughed at me and my best friend joined him, damn I would be pissed.

To put things in simple words, the way you reacted and felt was written out as the way I would react and feel if I were put in the scenes.

I like to write after 12am so almost everything was written between 2-5am.

2 fun (kinda…) facts about the ice cream scene: 1) Minghao actually can’t eat cold food well; he gets a stomach ache if he does. 2) I actually don’t like artificial strawberry.

You know how in the first half, Minghao would say something is nice and then refer the niceness to you? I wanted to add a scene where Minghao goes “I like it. I like you.” but hOLD UP that’s a big jump from where you and him stand so I was like “yeah let’s not…”
