A boy whose mother suffers from severe depression and a girl who has been frail and sick since childhood
If the protagonist were not them, then this might be a story about an obscure secret love that finally glimpses into the light of day and comes true. However, the protagonists are these two teenagers who were born full of suffering, and the ending of the story was doomed from the beginning.
The first time Shi An met Li Ning, when a group of children gathered around her and called her "sick boy", he stood in front of her, his back shining against the light. Shi An never wanted to eat the candy Li Ning handed her that day, no matter how bitter the traditional Chinese medicine was.
The second time he saw Li Ning was at the door of his house. Li Ning was squatting next to his mother's body, with his face lowered and his expression unclear.
From elementary school to high school, Shi An has always been with Li Ning. She accompanies him to get out of the pain of his mother's death, and accompanies him to slowly stay away from his alcoholic father. She thought she could stay with him like this, but it's a pity...
Intention: Desperately searching for light in the quagmire
