The old farmhouse’s new owner, Sarah, felt a jolt of something unexpected as she opened the capsule, unearthing it in the backyard. She didn’t remember burying it. Inside, a collection of pressed flowers, a dried piece of fruit, and a photo of someone she didn't know. The photograph was accompanied by a handwritten poem. As she read the words, a strange current ran through her. She felt like she wanted to know everything about the person in the photo. She reread the poem, her eyes wide, and a thrilling anticipation grew inside her. The air tasted different. The entire world was suddenly vibrant.
