Ocean In My Box

A weathered package arrives covered in Chinese text, except for the narrator’s name, Isaac. Once he opens the box, he falls into an ocean of souvenirs: Taipei bus tickets, inked journals, photos of people he once knew. Flooded with nostalgia, the former pieces of an earlier self begin to drown him in regret–until he receives a phone call.
