Qonell said: Also, why does the protagonist asks himself this question in the end: I guess it's because he's afraid of losing someone he cares about again, just like the sick girl from before. That's why he chose to live a lonely life, sort of given up hope. As Snow sort of mended his heart, he questions himself whether he could lives his life without Snow's accompany. As the story is open-ended Snow might be a hallucination, robot or even human, who knows. |

Qonell said: "Maybe the person in front of me was only a hallucination, a hallucination made because I couldn't stand being alone." Good point. Totally missed this while reading. Now I see the contradictions that you're pointing out. |

| Meh, not impressed. |

| It reminds me a lot of Planetarian. Honestly, for the lowest rated light novel on MAL it's not a bad short story. |

Ok, I just reread it. I know the back-story with the sick girl. And I get why he is so depressed and has no hope. But in the beginning he still thinks:
"Maybe the person in front of me was only a hallucination, a hallucination made because I couldn't stand being alone."
and also:
"Even for me, I might go berserk if I continue living alone."
In the end he is cured, but before he kind of craves for company and at the same time wants to be alone?
| @Qonell He wasn't contradicting himself, he kept changing his mind. |
