The story opens with high school girl Aisha, who struggles with an unexplained discomfort in her body, causing her anxiety when various stimuli trigger her unease. She has been seeing her therapist, Sharon, for several years to help cope with these feelings.

One day, Aisha follows her usual routine, getting ready and heading to school with her best friend, Cari. At school, she meets her boyfriend, Levi, who is in the same class. During their physics lesson, the professor introduces them to "Cymatics," the study of patterns formed by vibrational frequencies, hinting at the underlying themes of sound and resonance in Aisha's experiences.
