   Reader note

   The underlying tone of the entire story is helplessness, grievance, sincerity, humility, and despair. There are no plot twists, no redemption, no mutual attraction; only the most realistic and cruel ending of an ordinary person falling in love with a source of light—the source of light shines on all living beings, but not on you alone. The writing style is exceptionally clean, delicate, healing yet melancholic. The first-person perspective is incredibly immersive, leaving you with a lingering emptiness after reading. It's a remarkably successful short story that perfectly embodies the aesthetics of a tragic ending.
