The Lost Song on Tape


๐ŸŽฏ Theme:
In a forgotten drawer at Aikaโ€™s music school, Hana finds a cassette labeled only โ€œFor later.โ€ It plays a rough demo of Aika singing a song she never shared โ€” raw, unpolished, but deeply emotional.

They sit in silence, letting her voice fill the room, a presence felt across time.


๐Ÿ“ Setting:

  • Music classroom with dusty instruments
  • Old cassette player by the window
  • Rain outside, tapping the glass
