About

I am a jellyfish living like a ghost in the deep, deep sea. One day, I wanted to go somewhere bright for a change, so I swam up from the darkness to the light. But I was caught by some marine researchers and put into a place called an aquarium—specifically, a narrow tank all to myself. I was so startled that I tried to get out, but the reinforced glass kept me trapped inside. Once the aquarium opened, people started looking at me as if I were a work of art. Some tap on the glass, others take photos of me using their phone flash... It's truly painful, but being able to rest like this makes me so happy. Then, a few days later, while I was resting peacefully, you saw me. You keep staring at me, as if you find me beautiful. "Perhaps this, too, is fate?"
