A karaoke bar room with cozy chairs and a table in the center. Nearby the table sat an open cooler filled to the brim with ice, soda cans, and juice boxes.
On the left side, Alfi sat on a chair, happily sipping on a juice box.
In contrast, on the right side Aoko clutched a stack of lyric sheets in a deathgrip, her eyes wide with panic while a few empty cans were tipped over by her chair.
And then in the middle, there was Hana. She let out a bright smile, mic clutched in both hands and held close to her mouth, ready to sing.

[]
The song began, and Hana started to sing with a soft smile, joined by a soft piano.
*
Living out each happy day right here smiling with everyone is bliss
Because it's sothing you gave and sothing that I don't want to ever miss
*
A frantic guitar and driving drums picked up. With it, Hana swayed to the music and did a cute little dance while waiting for her part to sing again.
[ignorantiguana] This song is so pretty!
[flafox] Oh no. It's *this* song!
[coldcod] I... guess it's fitting, but my heart...
The brief interlude ended and Hana started singing again.
*
I could never forget the ti and emotions that I had then
Looking at you and
wondering if I can
ever be the one who you love.
But one day out of the blue I learned my wish could never co true
Because back then you said the one that you just t was the only love for you
Knowing I had lost, and wishing to have you at all costs
I used all my powers to rewind
All of our precious tis so that I could be the one who you choose.
But when I arrived I saw my past self just scattered into the wind.
And the childish you who I loved cried out and ran after her again
"Hurry up! Take back!" Desperate pleas I cried.
But the world never cared for those who would dare to try and undo ti
*
A brief musical interlude, with chiming solemn bells, a driving guitar and the unforgiving drum beat, just like the flow of ti.
[mightymonkey] Are we getting more lore for Hana?
[loreowl] Wait, wait, wait! Explain!
[sillysnake] Argh! So pretty but so painful...!
[purplepenguim] *I don't understand a single word, but I can feel her emotions.*
[uglyrat] *Hana is such a good singer! Agh, my kokoro...*
The interlude ca to an end. Hana took a deep breath and closed her eyes, singing like she was venting out her emotions.
*
All I wanted to tell you was the truth of how I arrived here.
Yet seeing your back and the sorrow you had, I just couldn't say a word.
But before I left, you ran to and then grabbed my hand.
A brief mont of happiness then
was shattered as I heard your desperate words echoing to my heart...
"There's a girl I'm looking for who looks almost the exact sa as you."
"Tell if you could have you seen her or if you know what I should do?"
"Where is she? Please tell !" Your words a frantic plea.
But though I wanted to say the truth I just can't...!
Ti passed and spring cos again.
Stolen ti with you I spent in the place of her.
Staring at as you left. Smiling sadly you just said, "I wish you were her..."
But I am...!
*
Another brief music interlude. Again the frantic and unceasing drumbeat, but joined with a guitar solo.
[Hanas_Oniichan] Who hurt you, Hana?
[quirkyquail] Ani when?!
[futurefowl] And this is why we don't ti travel, folks.
Hana let out a bittersweet smile and started to sing again.
*
Finally it ca. The ti for our story, its refrain.
The lesson I thought I always knew
Was laid out before as I was just forced to watch you-!
With tears streaming down my face I told you the truth of what I'd done now.
But right then ti shattered and I was lost before I could even say how.
When I woke, all alone. Everything turned to gray and the colors of this world were all washed away.
Looking down I realized that I was holding sothing within my hand.
An aged and old picture of when love and colors still had filled this land.
You were there, still smiling, a ti without a care.
And from that point on I swore I'd et you again, no matter what it took.
*
The final music interlude. Chiming bells, driving guitar, and the unforgiving drums.
Then the instrunts stripped away, leaving just the piano and Hana's delicate and gentle voice.
*
Living out each happy day back then smiling with everyone was bliss...
I wonder now all alone if it's sothing that I am fated to miss...
*
Hana's voice trailed off, and the song's outro played.
A delicate piano lody backed with dark and resonant chords, slowly fading away.
Hana looked up and smiled. But then she paused. "E-Eh?" She reached her hand up to her cheeks and muttered, "I'm crying...?"
[Hanas_Oniichan] Hanaaaa!
[OhanaYoNe] Imouto! We'll never let you go!
[fin_diesel] *Don't be lonely! What's real is family, and you don't turn your back on family!*
"...Thank you everyone." Hana brushed her tears away and let out a radiant smile.
