Scene 1 – The Story Begins
Location: Visuan's Home
Characters: Visuan (16 years old), Shiniva (18 years old, his sister)
Visuan excitedly tells his sister:
"Today, I saw something really strange at the Old Ostrich Bridge in the evening. There was a huge purple cloud hanging in the sky… and under that cloud, I saw a beautiful girl standing alone. She was wearing purple clothes, and even her hair looked purple. She smiled at me, Sis! I had never seen her before. She even waved at me!"
"I wanted to wave back… but I was completely lost in her smile. And then, just like that, she disappeared!"
Visuan's eyes shine with wonder.
"I want to see that Purple Sky again, Sis!"
Shiniva laughs: "Then I also want to see that girl!"
[Both laugh together]

Scene 2 – The Search
Time: Next Day, Morning at the Bridge
Visuan returns to the Old Ostrich Bridge, looking for the mysterious girl.
"I saw her here yesterday. I have to find her again. But this bridge doesn't even have anything underneath. Where could she have gone?"
He walks around but she's nowhere. Disappointed, he leaves.

Visuan, talking to his sister: "I went there, Sis."
Shiniva: "Oh? Did you see the Purple Sky again? Did you find the girl?"
Visuan: "No… hmm… maybe next time."
Shiniva smiles and teases him: "So, it really was a dream?"
Visuan (blushing): "No, Sis! It was real. I'll see her again!"
Shiniva: "By the way, tomorrow there's a welcome program for new students at your school."
Visuan: "Yeah, maybe… just maybe… she will be there."

"Good morning, everyone! Today is a very special day as we welcome new students to our school. Our family is growing!"

Scene 5 – The Accident
Visuan spots the girl from a distance. He quickly gets up to follow her but slips near the washroom, falls hard, and hits his head. He loses consciousness.
When he opens his eyes, he's sitting on a bench. The same girl is sitting next to him, offering him a bottle of water.
Aramya (the girl): "Take some water… mmm…"
Visuan (blushing, panicking inside): "Wait… what a dilemma!"
Aramya: "Huh?"
Visuan: "Sorry, it's nothing."
(Thinking to himself)
"This is the same girl! Why is my heart beating so fast?!"
