Kanashi woke up with a start, his heart still beating with the intensity of the story he had just experienced in his dream. It was a love story so deep and passionate that his own heart beat in rhythm with the happiness and sadness he had felt in that dream world.

However, the cruel reality revealed itself before him. The room was plunged into darkness, and the only company was the melancholic whisper of the wind blowing through the window. Kanashi sat up in bed, trying to hold on to the vestiges of that fleeting dream, but it was fading quickly, leaving him with a bittersweet feeling.He was a young man passionate about video game programming, but his love life in the real world seemed destined for loneliness.

 Desperate to find the love that only existed in his dreams, Kanashi made an impulsive decision: download Tinlove, a dating app that promised to connect lonely hearts.Determined to attract someone with similar interests to his, Kanashi worded his bio in a quirky way:

 "I'll only date the programming-savvy girl who dreamed of a failed video game programmer."

 He wasn't expecting much, he was just looking for a connection with someone who shared his passion for programming and video games.To his surprise, his gesture did not go unnoticed. Social media was flooded with memes and jokes at Kanashi's expense, but he also gained curious followers who found his unique approach funny. The story went viral, and Kanashi found himself immersed in unwanted attention on social media.

What Kanashi didn't know was that, while the world was laughing at his peculiar quest, someone in particular was reading his biography with a mix of surprise and curiosity. Lisa, a talented programmer who shared the same company with Kanashi, had stumbled across the story online.Although she initially felt uncomfortable about the public exposure, Lisa couldn't help but smile when she realized that she herself had had a similar dream. 

The shyness that characterized her made her hesitate to take the initiative, but the coincidence was too great to ignore.Kanashi and Lisa's destinies were intertwined, both dreamers in a world of code and algorithms. 

Now, with Lisa working at the same company, only time would reveal if reality could surpass the intensity of the dreams they shared.
