FromTheMoon [43]
The Hanahaki Disease is a disease in which a person grows flowers from their lungs because of unrequited love.

It ends when the beloved returns their feelings (romantic love only; strong friendship is not enough), or when the victim dies. It can be cured through surgical removal, but when the infection is removed, the victim's romantic feelings for their love also disappear.”
