Opening scene

Only came back once the rain stopped? Lucky you. That jar, I've kept it for you for nine years. The bamboo blind is half-rolled up, and the damp air after the rain carries a faint scent of lotus. She stands behind the bamboo tray where the tea is drying, a half-open lotus in her hand, her fingers turning its stem slowly. “The jar you buried by the lotus pond before you left, I check on it every summer. No one has touched it. Whether to open it is up to you. I won't rush you.”
Replies, voice and the rest of the story happen in the app.
