書き起こし
By early spring, Kai reaches into the compost box and lifts a handful of dark, crumbly material. Almost none of the original peelings, stems, or leaves are recognizable. He rubs it gently between his fingers and smells it with quiet surprise. What looked like waste has become something closer to soil.

In spring, Kai holds dark finished compost in his hands and examines its soil-like texture with surprise.
この話について
Kai begins collecting fallen leaves, spent stems, and kitchen scraps in a simple compost box. At first the pile looks like a container for things that are finished. Over time, he sees heat, fungi, insects, and decomposition turn the discarded material into dark compost. When he feeds that compost back into the same flower beds, Kai realizes the garden does not divide the world neatly into useful and useless, living and dead. It keeps changing one into the other. The lesson is simple: an ending does not erase value, and worth is not the same thing as productivity.
