That's the good ending! It means we've carefully maneuvered Sol through the galactic disc to do a hand shake with a red dwarf's liquid water zone. It means there is time, time to explore to test to get it right. Life goes on going on, sentience ripples through the whole ecosystem and people learn to come together for cake! ...well, except that fellow in the trees... that's a tad bleak...
tbh I never thought about why the sun was red. This makes so much sense now. sadly.

Well, on Japan and Bangladesh flags our Sun is red.
It's entirely possible the story takes place in one of those places!
