I observe that the story does not follow the rules of a short story except one or two.
We know that every short story should have a minimum number of characters. In that short story, we find only one character. He is none other than Oswald. So, this rule is perfectly followed.
The story ends with a positive message. There is a certain process to embrace life. We should adopt that livelihood. The message is truly fantastic. That is all. Other characteristics are absent.
In a short story, we enter into the main story directly without wasting any time. But, here, that condition of the short story never follows. Even he does not try to enter in main story at all. It is a big technical mistake. It is descriptive. So, the pace of the story hampers.
The writing effort follows almost all the rules of a Monologue. As a Monologue, it is fantastic.
The author should know the difference between Novels, short stories and Monologues properly.
I hope that the problem will be sorted out soon.
Keep writing.
