You had always found your solace in the fictional world. But that could only get you so far. The world was a constant buzzing, a noise you were compelled to listen, whilst chasing that sweet melody which was unreachable. The noise rendered you numb, numb enough to stay awake for far longer than necessary. Finally, you try the last option- Lucid dreaming, paired with some suspicious looking pills. That lands you in a new reality, a form of escapism. Unbeknownst to you, the world you chose to ignore will eventually become an escape from the world you yearned for in the first place.
