This story is a about love and how it can destroy us. The boy goes to the bazaar for this one girl he loves. I think that the story has good characterization. The father has a flat personality which his trait is one of forgetful and not caring. His girl is also one flat character. She is the perfect girl that never notices you. However, the main character is a one. He is in love with the one girl but at the end he is very mad at himself. He feels as though he is allowing himself to be fooled into doing all these things for this girl. Like when he is simply being nice to the lady at the store by looking at her jars with interest. The girl is doing the same thing to this boy. Also the lady at the store is another flat character. She is a person who is cheerful because she has to be for work...a hard working person is her personality trait.
