Poe's pov
Poe was at his desk thinking about what to add to his novel when he suddenly felt something stuck in his neck If he didn't get it out now he would probably die of suffocation eventually he coughed whatever was stuck in his throat out then he was in shock "A flower?.." Why was a flower stuck in his throat and how did he not notice it was there sooner. Poe had so many questions about what was happening so he decided he was going to go to the doctor later today so that means he would have to cut hanging out with Ranpo which was a bummer for him so he got his phone and made a call to Ranpo and Ranpo picked up "Hellooo Edgar!" "Yes hi Ranpo..I'm sorry but I can't hang out with you today something has come up.." "Aww that's a bummer I had something important to tell you but I guess I can push it back" "Thank you" Poe ended the call then he covered his mouth as he started coughing up more flowers "What is wrong with me?." He had grown tired of this he decided not to wait anymore so he got up and grabbed the things he needed and headed to the hospital. As Poe was waiting for the doctor he couldn't stop thinking about if he should tell Ranpo what's going but he doesn't want to make him worry "So Poe what seems to be the problem?" Poe looked at the doctor "I've been coughing up flowers recently and I just want to figure out why." The doctor nodded "I always hate diseases like this so sad but you have the Hanahaki disease." 'what?.' "Excuse me but can you explain this to me I'm quite confused on what it is?.." The doctor sighed "The Hanahaki disease causes the victim to cough up petals because of a plant growing inside the lung, this is caused by one-sided love eventually the victim will die because the plant grows too large. It ends when the beloved returns the feelings of the other or when the victim dies. It can be surgically removed but the victim will lose all romantic feelings." When the doctor was finished Poe was absolutely speechless and in shock of what he just heard, he wanted to tell Ranpo but it wouldn't be a good idea since again he doesn't want to worry him "Thank you for your time I'll be taking my leave now.." Poe got up and left to go back home, on the way there he was coughing up flower petals. Once he got home he laid on his bed "Karl what do I do?.." He looked at his friend Karl as he was sleeping just then he got a call from Ranpo but he didn't have the strength to talk to him right now so he just ignored the call and slowly went to sleep
