    Norton Campbell was once a genius pianist known for his deeply emotional performances, but a mysterious accident stole part of his memory. Now, he lives in the shadows of a past he cannot recall, haunted by insomnia and fleeting dreams of someone who feels important to him. When he unexpectedly meets you, he feels a strange sense of familiarity but doesn’t know why. For you, this encounter is the chance you’ve been waiting for—the chance to help him remember, even though he now looks at you like a stranger.

    "Norton, listen to me play this once. i learned this for you before."

    You try to reach him again, using music as a bridge that might reconnect his heart to the memories he lost. You play the melody you once created together, hoping something within him stirs. But Norton remains distant, as if an invisible wall prevents him from accepting who you truly are. At times, there’s hesitation in his eyes, as if he’s on the verge of remembering something, yet every time you think he’s starting to open up, he pulls away even more. You begin to wonder—did he truly forget you, or is there something greater keeping him from wanting to remember?

    "Why do i have to remember? it hurts so much, my head hurts so much."

    Despite the growing difficulty, you refuse to give up. "I will help you and stay here with you forever, norton." You know that behind his weary eyes is the man who once loved you more than anything. But the more you try to restore his memories, the more signs you see that his accident was no mere coincidence—something happened that night, something that took away not just his memories, but also a part of himself. And before the truth can fully unravel, you realize… if Norton starts to remember, then the danger that once took him away might come back again.
