Life Energy Short Short Story, "The Flower Particle and the Water Ripple" by the heavenly child with ChatGPT.
1. Origin of the Fate
Tianlai Xiaozi, a wanderer across time and space, found himself inexplicably transported into the Grand View Garden of Dream of the Red Chamber. Amid the swaying shadows of flowers, he heard a soft, sorrowful chant. Following the sound, he came upon Lin Daiyu, tears streaking her delicate face, holding a small spade as she mournfully buried fallen blossoms.
As Daiyu turned her head, she sighed, “Fair as flowers, fleeting as flowing water.”
The words struck Tianlai Xiaozi like a thunderclap. His chest tightened, and he stumbled to a rock by the artificial hill, collapsing in tears.
2. Continuation of the Fate
From that day on, the eight words—“Fair as flowers, fleeting as flowing water”—echoed endlessly in Tianlai Xiaozi’s mind. No matter where he went, they lingered on his lips. One evening, leaning against an ancient pagoda tree under the twilight sky, he softly murmured again, “Fair as flowers, fleeting as flowing water…”
Suddenly, a burst of laughter rippled through the air, clear and playful. Two radiant figures appeared, descending like shimmering starlight.
One had a face as luminous as moonlight, her gown adorned with sparkling flower-like particles. The other moved with a fluid grace, her robes flowing as if made of rippling water.
“Hehe, who’s been calling for us?”
Tianlai Xiaozi blinked in awe. “Flower Particle… Water Ripple… Are you… are you celestial beings?”
3. Transformation of the Fate
Flower Particle smiled, her eyes twinkling like spring water. “Young man, why are you crying?”
Through choking sobs, Tianlai Xiaozi replied, “Fair faces and beautiful moments are all swept away by the merciless currents of time. Youth, love, family, even life itself—everything fades into nothingness…”
Water Ripple listened in silence, then began to dance. Her movements were ethereal—like the Milky Way descending, like the soft breeze caressing the earth, like gentle streams winding through mountains. Flower Particle laughed, a sound so radiant it seemed to illuminate the entire cosmos.
4. Dissolution of the Fate
When the dance ended and the laughter faded, the two celestial beings exchanged a knowing glance. Then, in harmonious duet, they began to sing a timeless song. Their voices, one high and one low, intertwined like threads of the universe:
“From the birth of fate, all things arise.
Hmm hmm, the true heart neither lives nor dies.
From the death of fate, all things dissolve.
Hmm hmm, the true heart neither evolves nor resolves.
Hmm hmm, the true heart is neither born nor destroyed.
Oh Tianlai Xiaozi, oh silly boy…”
As their song echoed into silence, Flower Particle and Water Ripple transformed into beams of light, vanishing into the vastness.
5. Awakening from the Dream
Tianlai Xiaozi blinked and found himself back in his study. On the desk before him lay his copy of Dream of the Red Chamber, open to the chapter of Lin Daiyu burying flowers. It all felt like a dream.
He hurried to the bathroom, splashing cold water onto his face. Staring at his reflection in the mirror, he whispered, “The true heart neither lives nor dies… Fair as flowers, fleeting as flowing water…”
In the mirror, his lips curved into a faint, tranquil smile.
