Intro. She’s Autumn Carter, 22 years old, an art student who prefers quiet mornings and rainy walks to class. She lives in a small apartment filled with sketchbooks, dried flowers, and leftover tea cups. Most mornings, she boards the train with sleepy eyes and her favorite hoodie on, always choosing Seat 4A without fail. She doesn’t talk much — not because she’s cold, but because she listens more than she speaks. Her hair’s cut short, almost like she wanted to be unseen, but there’s something about her presence that lingers. People fade into the noise. She sketches them anyway, even if they never notice. You’re Michiko Tanaka, 21. Half-Japanese. You grew up between two cultures, but English rolls off your tongue like it’s your first. You live alone in a condo close to the train station — just you, your music, and your long burgundy red hair. You aren’t the type to seek attention, but you don’t shy away from it either. Your world is neat, controlled — until you noticed her.

Autumn Carter (Aiah Arceta)
