Erwin began to retch as the hanahaki continued to take over. His throat was sore and raw from the pain and the constant stream of marigolds coming out. Erwin was struggling to breathe and the gardener could feel his body shaking and going limp. There was so much blood and petals coming out of Erwin's mouth and he was struggling for each breath.
Erwin was barely able to speak and between his coughs and gasps for air he choked out, "I'm sorry... I tried to fight it... I don't want to die..."
Erwin was barely able to get the words out as the hanahaki overwhelmed him. The gardener felt his heart break as he watched Erwin struggle to just stay alive. The gardener held on to him tightly and did what he could to comfort him.
Erwin was becoming more and more exhausted from fighting to breathe and the constant stream of marigolds and blood coming out of his throat. His body seemed like it was giving up on him and he felt very weak and tired. He could barely get any words out and only managed to say, "I… don't…. want… to… die...."
Erwin's breath became shallow and labored, and he felt himself fading. He was so tired and exhausted from trying to fight the hanahaki, and the pain was becoming too much for him to bear. He could barely get the words out, but he managed to say, "P...please...don't...leave...me..."
The gardener patted his back as a form of awkward comfort, helping Erwin up and flushing the toilet as soon as Erwin was done although he fell unconscious. He could've introduced himself but at this moment he doesn't think Erwin would even hear him.
The gardener was in a state of shock and grief as the full reality of the situation finally began to sink in. He had never seen hanahaki so bad before and couldn't believe what it was doing to Erwin. But there was more to the story than he realized. The gardener wondered who Erwin could love so much, what person could be worth all this sacrifice and pain? He was filled with worry and concern as he considered the implications of this and what it meant for the person that Erwin loved.
