Have you ever thought what it would be like to just escape?. To be free from this thing we call reality. Isn't it so cruel? Isn't reality so unfair?Well that's what Alice thought sometimes, sometimes spacing out in that little world of hers.
Imagining how free she would feel if just for a second—just a second she'll get a feeling of carefree.
Although unfortunately for her she had to tolerate this harsh reality of a world.And she can't escape that....Or can she?

ALICE P.O.V
Opening the door to my dorm, I walked inside and threw the stuff I bought from a nearby 7/11 on the floor. I took off my mask and threw it into a nearby trash bin, paying bills has been a problem lately. Because of the pandemic, stores have been closing these days. But I have to work in one of those stores to pay my bills. But luckily online selling is something that became a thing—I get to sell my old clothes online and get money out of it.
I collapsed on the bed, taking a moment of relaxation before I felt the lingering feeling of boredom. I sighed, as I grabbed my laptop nearby and went to check out Netflix. Now you might be wondering if I work as a cashier how am I able to afford Netflix?
Not to worry cause my aunt pays for it, isn't she the best? Although she does sometimes talk shit about me behind my back but if that's all I have to tolerate to get free Netflix then so be it.
The laptop was a gift from my mom's side of the family, they got it for me for school. Family life and my parents are just not the same as it used to when.....my little brother died because of a car crash.
And he was only 10 at the time so.......sometimes I just really miss him.
'Ugh! Get a hold of yourself Alice! Find yourself a distraction!'
Scrolling through the various shows on Netflix I found my all time favorites, The Umbrella Academy. Loved this show, and would watch it sometimes from time to time—I think this was the 9th time I've actually watched this.
I clicked on the show and as the Netflix intro did it's thing as a bright blue light surrounded me. I freaked out, as I scurried away but all I saw were white.
"Shit"
