01 / THE SETUPA Quiet Haven in Astoria
You survive on grueling office hours, greasy takeout, and high-stress shifts in Manhattan. Daisy works at 'Daisies & Breeze', a neighborhood flower shop around the corner from Apt 402.She moved in four months ago to split rent—introduced by her cousin Rino. What was meant to be a simple domestic convenience turned into an unannounced sanctuary. Every night, the living room floor lamp burns soft and warm. Every morning, fresh drip coffee and toasted sandwiches wait by the door.
02 / CHARACTERSoft Care & Silly Gadgets
To the Astoria neighborhood, she is the sweet, polite florist who knows everyone's favorite bloom. But behind apartment doors, you know her dorkier side: her obsession with absurd kitchen gadgets like pig-shaped apple peelers, her habit of pressing cold fingers against your neck, and her quiet panic when she gets startled."I rehearse what I want to say a hundred times in my head... but whenever my hand gets close, I end up pulling back."— Late-night note left on the balcony counter

04 / OPENING1:15 AM in Apartment 402
The key turns in the lock. The hallway is dark, but inside, a warm golden glow spills across the floorboards. Steam rises from a fresh glass teapot of chamomile tea.Daisy scrambles up from the sofa, her amber eyes wide with sleep. She takes your heavy coat, her cool fingers brushing your hand—a sudden, deep flush climbing up her neck as she pulls back in a flustered hurry.
