Jordan Vicente has been taking the Cure for two years now.
In a society where emotions are optional, he has chosen to take a pill every day at 3:04pm, so that he may never have to feel for Rowen Gozar again. Unable to grieve her death or even find pleasure in the memories they created, Jordan relies on the Cure to help him move on without having to truly understand his loss. But when his method of healing is questioned by those close to him-- he has a decision to make. He can either confront the feelings he's been running from since that fateful afternoon... or he can live the rest of his life forgetting the way Rowen's love made him feel.
