Hanahaki Disease is a disease in which the victim hurls up flower petals because one-sided love depresses them, and they have been suffering from unreturned love. The Japanese word Hanahaki is a fusion of Hana, which means flower, and Haku means to throw up. It is usually used in both happy and unfortunate stories and has several variants. It ends in only two cases; when the beloved returns the same romantic feelings as they have because strong friendship is not enough or the lover dies. Hanahaki can be removed through surgeries, but when the infection is removed from the lover's body, the romantic feelings for their love also vanish. There is no particular flower for this disease, but it can be the crush's favorite flower type or their favorite color.

Kamishiro Rui, my best friend. I've had a crush on him for a while. I just couldn't ever build up 

the courage to tell him that. Everyday I just fall for him more. What have I gotten myself into? My 

heart beats fast when he looks at me. My face turns red when we make eye contact. I get 

butterflies when he says my name. He is so pretty too, I catch myself staring at him sometimes. I 

wonder if he'd ever like me back.

I'd usually just think about Rui in class instead of paying attention to pass the time, but my 

grades are slipping. I'll actually pay attention so my parents don't shout at me. Every 5 minutes, 

I'd look at the clock. Lunch is after, so I'll get to see Rui again! I catch myself thinking about him a

lot. It's hard not to.

The bell eventually rung, I get out of my seat and run out the door as everyone else does the 

same. I go to the rooftop and see a familiar purple haired male. But, he's with someone else. 

He's kissing a green haired girl, one hand wrapped around her waist and the other holding her 

chin. My eyes widened. My eyes started tearing up. Tears running down my face. My heart hurts. 

It feels like I've just been stabbed in the back. I kind of just stand there, feeling idiotic for 

thinking I might've had a chance. 

He pulls away and smiles at her softly. She hugs him and he hugs her back. I wish I was her. Why 

did this have to happen? I understand why he likes her though. She's twice as pretty as me and 

she seems nice. Why would he like me when she's around? 

After I stopped crying, I had to cough, so I took out my handkerchief and coughed into it. I 

looked at my handkerchief and all I saw was blood and flower petals. It looked like Rui's favorite 

flower. I stared at it, confused. Am I okay? Where did the flower petals come from? I knew the 

blood would stain, so I just threw it out. 

I guess Rui noticed me since he started walking towards me.

"Are you okay, Y/n?" He asked me. "You look like you've been crying."

"I'm fine." 

I hadn't even realized one more tear ran down my face. He wiped it with his thumb. 

"I know you're lying. Tell me what happened."

"It's nothing Rui, really."

"Are you sure?"

"Mhm."

"Okay. But just know that I'm always here for you, alright?"

"Okay.."

I can't tell him. It's rude. I can't tell him that I'm jealous of his girlfriend and that they should 

break up.

"Want to leave campus and go to a cafe for lunch?"

I needed to cough again. Fuck.

"Sure, let me just use the bathroom first."

"Of course, take your time."

I ran down the stairs to the bathroom. I opened the stall and immediately closed it. I coughed  

up all of the blood and petals I could. It hurt. Some of the blood stained my shirt, so I just wore 

the sweater Rui gave me for my birthday last year. I went back up to Rui. He saw the blood on 

my shirt, sadly. 

"N/n, you're bleeding. Are you okay?"

"Rui, please, I'm fine."

"Fine. Let's go."

I grabbed my bag and we both left. We left campus and walked to the cafe he was talking about. 

I ordered a (fav hot drink) and a cake pop. Rui got a donut. He payed and we both sat down. 

We both just talked and talked until our orders came. We both ate and talked about homework, 

school work, and projects. Until I asked a question.

"Was that girl your girlfriend?"

"What?"

"That girl you were kissing."

"Oh.. uh.. I don't know, I guess? She had to leave after that, but we both have mutual feelings for 

each other. So, we are I presume."

"Cool! I ship!" I put on a smile but my heart was aching. I felt shaken up. I was about to cry right 

in front of him. Whatever you do, don't embarrass yourself in front of Rui. All I was repeating in 

my head was breathe.

In.

Out.

In.

Out.

After I said that, he chuckled. He gave me a soft smile. He is so cute, she's so lucky. I needed to 

cough, so I just drank my drink.

I got up to use the bathroom since it didn't get better. I coughed up everything I could. 

Everything. I think I coughed up a whole flower. It laid in my hands. The flower was gorgeous, 

such a beautiful object. But, it was covered in my blood. Rui had such good taste in flowers. But, 

now it's covered by my disgusting blood. 

I dropped it in the trash and went back to Rui.

When I got home, I ran to my bed. I opened my laptop and searched something.

'Why am I coughing up blood and flowers?'

'The reason you are coughing up blood and flowers is most likely hanahaki disease. It is which the victim is experiencing one-sided love. There is no known cure other than the crush returning their feelings or getting surgery. Though, if you get the surgery, all memories of that person will be lost. Other symptoms: flowers growing on your skin, fainting, dehydration, and lack of appetite.'
