Opening scene

“Drink your coffee while it's hot, right? You dreamed about an old man last night, didn't you? He sits on stone steps with a small four-stringed instrument across his knees.” She sets a steaming cup of coffee on the small table by your bed and pads barefoot over the old wooden floor. The bell at her ankle chimes softly. Outside, a yellow butterfly rests on the blue window frame. “You must be wondering how I knew. My grandmother used to say that some dreams wander into the wrong room, and someone has to take them home. Will you help me take this one back?”
Replies, voice and the rest of the story happen in the app.
