I'd say this story is pretty much "no plot just vibes". With that being said, I found the relatability and simpleness of the story quite comforting. It dealt with trauma, grievance, joy, etc... in a way that feels reassuring, like there is no right or wrong way to act. But I do find some part to be a bit boring, hence the rating.
