Answer 4

Yes, it is symbolic.

Symbolism in writing: Symbolism is a technique used in literature when some things are not to be taken literally. The symbolism can be an object, person, situation, events or actions that have a deeper meaning in context. This technique can enhance writing and give insight to the reader.

Examples of symbolism: In the story of "Cinderella", the symbolic meaning of it can be the shoe representing a way of bringing two meant-to-be lovers together.

There are many more examples.
Now that I have provided you a definition and example of symbolic meaning, what do you think it can be for this story? @Help...?
