The central premise revolves around a boy who creates an imaginary girl as a way to cope with his isolation.
Ethan lived in a world of quiet isolation. A reserved boy of sixteen, he spent most of his days tucked away in his small room, where the walls were adorned with sketches of imagined worlds and characters. His peers found him odd, his quiet demeanor a barrier they never dared to cross. But Ethan didn't mind. He had created his own solace, a haven where he wasn't judged or ignored.
One evening, as the rain pattered against his window, Ethan sat at his desk, sketching absentmindedly. His pencil danced across the paper, and a figure began to emerge—a girl. Her eyes sparkled with curiosity, her smile warm and inviting. She had long, flowing hair and wore a dress that seemed to shimmer with light. Ethan stared at her completed form, feeling a strange connection to the image.
"You look like you could be real," he muttered.
The words hung in the air, and then, as if answering his thought, the room shimmered faintly. Ethan blinked, thinking it was a trick of the light. But then she appeared, standing beside his desk.
"Hello," she said softly, her voice like a melody.
Ethan's breath caught. "Who…who are you?"
She smiled. "I'm Luna. You brought me to life."
