Two adults who have been together for six years, each carrying their own commitments in life, find a unique spiritual resonance in the ordinary and trivial daily life. Over the years, they have consciously guarded their interpersonal boundaries, always maintained clear boundaries, and never crossed the line.
A casual joke led to a road trip across North America. Temporarily breaking free from the shackles of life, they found themselves among the sunset on the west coast, the desert stars and the long coastline. They spent a frank, gentle, restrained and reserved time alone, and calmly faced the heartbeat and harmony that quietly grew in their hearts.
The story does not dwell on the gains and losses of love, nor does it talk about tragic sacrifices. The core depicts the unique background of a contract for adults: after growing up, there are few hysterical pulls in life. No matter how precious a momentary heartbeat is, it cannot overturn the long-term agreement that has been made. Standing at the crossroads of choice, the first thing the two of them followed was the promise they made between themselves and life.
The scorching sunshine on the West Coast, the windy sand stars in the depths of the desert, the seaside cliffs and mist on Highway 1, Fisherman's Wharf shrouded in thick fog in San Francisco, the endless cold rain in Seattle, and the endless summer coastline in Vancouver. The vast world quietly accommodates the two of them walking together day and night.
In the adult world, a sober sinking, a dignified return, between the day and night of the North American continent.
Purpose: This work explores the sober choice of adults to abide by their life contracts when they mature. It uses road trips as a carrier to restrain short-term heartbeats. There is no bloody conflict and the writing style is delicate and realistic.
