## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

Even childhood ghosts can’t stay buried forever—though they might bring extra baggage. Kanna and Roku meet over mutual grief and find time, long stalled, unexpectedly restarting. A weepy romance wrapped in supernatural wish-fulfillment that probably wouldn’t survive daylight.

**Mood tags**: foreign-gem, bittersweet, tender
