    Absolutely sweet, sour, and bittersweet, like being trapped in a transparent glass jar 🫙, or breathing freely on a vast grassland. It's truly heartbreaking and painful, infuriating at their lack of resilience and heartbroken by the impermanence of life. It's a mutual unrequited love; both are stubborn yet deeply care for each other. This is a very short story, only ten thousand words, but its unique writing style and perspective make it incredibly immersive.
