Started out well but ending is too abrupt

It is a puzzling oneshot but I think that it revolves at its core around unrequited love, symbolized by the separation wall on p. 14. It begins by the main character looking at the guy she wants surrounded by girls on p. 6, there might have been a confession on p. 7 if it weren't for the fact that the guy gave her the happy-go-lucky attitude, revealing hence that he is unaware of her feelings (he didn't show any resentment towards other guys trying to ascribe a color to her, nor did he tell her what color she resembles in his opinion). The story progressed towards the separation wall on p. 14. The girl probably cried earlier because she realized that he doesn't like her back and the fact that she ascribed the yellow color to him then took it back might be an indicator that she acknowledged that he isn't hers. For him, yellow symbolizes sunshine (the guy shares his warmth with everyone) whereas for her, he symbolized sunset (a symbol for romantic encounters between lovers); at the end, she says he isn't yellow (hence there won't be any sunset for the two of them = romantic encounter between lovers). This is how I read this oneshot anyway ... it may become more comprehensible and interesting when seen in this new light, I might be wrong though.
