The Unicon in the Garden

Response

In the ironic story, I know that the couple hide different intentions, and they don’t trust each other. The talk between the wife and husband is mean and boring. In the real world, there are a huge number of couples or lovers treating each other with sinister. All in their life is cursing, creaming and shut somebody up.

It says that, “Don’t count your chickens before they are hatched”, if you think you are wisdom only, what is not enough. When life is flat and insipid, what people want is more freedom and a nook or something fresh. There must be a winner in the end of a craft game. The looser must be out of control, the other must be mind
clear.
