But somewhere along the way, Kaori let go of her art, allowing it to fade into the background as she pursued a path she thought would bring her success and stability. As Kaori reconnects with her past and grapples with the ghosts of her decisions, she realizes that true happiness cannot be found in abandoning one's passions. With each brushstroke of memory, she rediscovers the essence of her true self - a creative soul yearning to break free from the confines of practicality and conformity.
