People say if someone attracts you with your five senses, that person is likely to be the one for your life. Five boys with different personalities. Each one becomes attracted to the same girl using a specific sense. Their eyes to look, mouth to kiss, nose to smell, hands to feel, and ears to hear. Fate has suddenly used its name to cause an uproar with many hearts. Dylan, a red headed boy with a confident personality. His green eyes are important to him. Nathan, a blonde cheery boy with a high sense of smell. Ben, the school's musician with nice taste in clothes. His ears can pick up the slightest sound. James, a sweet boy with white framed glasses. He knows how to treat a girl right. Loki, a talented, mysterious magician. What is he like?

"Society had hierarchized the human being. Was there something I could do?" In the collective mind, losing is miserable. Losing a job, a contest, an ability is miserable, but that is not true. Even when you think you have lost everything that mattered to you, you have to take a leap of faith. There is always a brighter tomorrow.

Beep...beep...beep... Ever since you were little they have imprinted into your mind the 5 senses and we all know them by heart; smell, touch, taste, sight... Beep... And sound... Beep... Awful... Beep... Beeping sound... Beep... It's all I can hear, it just keeps going... Beep... I try to block it out, I really do. Please believe me I do, that's all I want. All I want, is that endless beeping to stop. I want to make it stop but I don't know what it is, I can't see it... Beep... I can't see anything... Beep...beep...beep...

I'm not actually focused into these kind of things. Nevertheless, it's interesting. So, I gave it a shot. These are mostly some silly thoughts and well, my own perception of things that I observed. It interests me so much and I want to express it in words. I love words so yeah... Here it goes.. P.S. It's weird 'cause I'm weird... Haha..

In a world where memory has become a commodity and sensations are currency, one man finds himself on the edge between science, art, and forbidden pleasure. His journey is not just an exploration of technology capable of recording and reproducing feelings, but also an attempt to understand what makes us alive: the present moment or its reflection.

How do the people of this world use their newfound senses, and what happens if you're the only one who doesn't develop one? Read more and find out.
