The atoms are having a meeting where Carbon feels ordinary and replaceable compared to elements like Iron. Oxygen reassures Carbon that it can form important compounds like diamonds when arranged properly. Carbon doubts Oxygen understands how it feels to be disposable. Oxygen shares that it feels pressure from everyone depending on it. The atoms get distressed and accidentally form the dangerous carbon monoxide compound, choking themselves.
