        "You better have found something."

        "I did! I saw his problem myself! And I've got a name!"

        "So what is it?"

        "Hanahaki," he muttered.

        "You know what this is?"

        He nodded. "It comes from unrequited love. He must confess to the one he likes. If the one he's crushing on doesn't love him back, then it will still kill him. But if they do, then the flowers growing in his lungs will disappear."
