"The Little Pine Tree's Christmas Dream" . Content Warning.
The little pine tree stood quietly on the outskirts of the Christmas tree field, surrounded by rows of perfectly shaped trees. Some were tall and majestic blue spruces with their sharp needles, while others were fragrant balsam firs or elegant white spruces with flawless symmetry. Even among the scattered pines like itself, the little pine tree felt unique. It didn’t mind being smaller than most; after all, not every home could accommodate a twenty-foot tree. Somewhere out there, it believed, was a cozy little home waiting for a perfectly sized tree like itself—a home where it could shine as the perfect Christmas centerpiece.

Here, reality was malleable, bent by the weight of technology and desperation.
