Productivity planet Notifications planet Adulting suitcase Deadline planet Little K, the astronaut, overwhelmed

Somewhere along the way,
growing up started feeling like drifting away.

A strange black hole opening in the cosmos
Little K drifting toward the signal

Until one day a strange signal
flickered in the distance.

A sun-warmed courtyard where Grandma slowly simmers coconut milk while 8-year-old Jia watches from a wooden stool
Little K touching down in the courtyard

Following the mysterious signal across the cosmos, Little K touches down in a quiet, sun-warmed courtyard. Through a nostalgic window, a long-lost scene unfolds: a tiny wooden stool, an 8-year-old girl named Jia, and the timeless aroma of Grandma’s slow-simmering coconut milk. The original recipe for leaving the noisy world behind.

A Chicago skyline lost in a gray winter blizzard, seen through an office window
A clutter of gears and clocks grinding overhead
A spiky notification endlessly pinging
An hourglass counting down a deadline
A towering stack of paperwork
More stacks of files and binders
Grown-up Jia slumped at her desk, buried in work and too tired to look up
A small bloom of warm color in the cold room
Little K, bright and warm, leaning over the desk trying to reach Jia

Chicago, years later

The warm scent suddenly faded, swallowed by the biting frost of a Chicago blizzard. Among towering stacks of deadlines and endless gray noise, Little K finally found Jia. Grown up. Tired. Buried. Little K leaned over her desk, desperately flashing the golden signal, trying to remind her of who she used to be. But Jia never looked up.

✨ The voyage continues

...but the golden signal never stopped reaching for her.
