Lonely people can warm each other in a group

The plot is as smooth as a stream, and I finally cried when I saw it.

I like the end of the story very much. It ends with the chat of Fen, Olivia, and Joe. Just like the beginning of this story, I cut into the story quietly, and then gently cut away at the end, so plain, so natural, so unreserved. Traces, as if nothing has ever been here.

Qiao is a talkative, 9 minutes without making a sound is already his limit. He should be the kind of person with a particularly empty heart, who needs to talk to others constantly to prove his existence. Maybe he accompanies Fern to watch the train time and time again, just to have a personal company...

The scene that impressed me the most was that he was standing alone on top of an abandoned train, and the lens was very stretched. Far and far away, he appears smaller and smaller. It was as if the weight of a sky was weighing on his thin shoulders. His words are always very few, and he can answer with one word, not one more word. But his heart is extremely sincere. When he was worried about Olivia, he would take the initiative to deliver the groceries she bought to her home, just to make sure everything was well; he would bring dry food, books, and cigarettes, and sit quietly in Olivia’s house Under the tree outside, just to be able to see and hear her breath...

Olivia suffered a huge pain in her heart, but she was also able to think about Fen silently and thoughtfully. She knows that there is a tall self-esteem in his small body, and what she does for him is always silently, not in front of him...

Oh, you are all lonely people, when you hug each other After the group, you can warm each other.
