Hanahaki disease.
The disease of unrequited love. Of a past love that never bloomed. The love disease that stemmed from one's lungs and slowly grew until it killed you or the love was reciprocated.
Either you confess your feelings or die. And Jude had chosen death, he hadn't admitted it, but he wouldn't confess his feelings to Sharpness. After what he did? No, he trusted the wrong person and for that Jude would pay the consequences, even if that meant a painful death.
