In order to bid farewell to the past, he works hard to redirect his life back on track. He pulls the curtain back before the sun fills the room, and when the light is switched on, the curtain is drawn again. He packs up everything that has been left behind and tries to establish a new normal in life. He has also deleted several playlists, preventing melancholic emotions from being triggered. He tries to wipe out any past traces and signs, and the only exception is when he brought home a potted plant of birds-of-paradise; this is something that he would have never done in the past. The house used to be filled with greenery but not because of him; he is someone that can’t even take care of the strongest of plants. When he suddenly woke up from feeling dark and gloom, all the plants in the room had already withered and dried. It was not just him who had died after all. He places the plant before a window and hopes to give each other a new beginning. He pulls the curtain back before the sun fills the room, and when the light is switched on, the curtain is drawn again. He waters the birds-of-paradise in between. His life seems to be slowly gaining a new order until he noticed that peculiar room on the other side...
