Not Sick But Not Well.
This day wasn't an exception. I cried over and over until I could no longer, I wiped my tears and took the packages in my arms after opening the door. In the house, nothing new. They were still talking, so I had time to drop off the packages, and without even opening one, I headed to the showers, cleaned my face with water, and went to my room. This is roughly how my days as a child went. I know that it cannot be described as an ideal childhood, but it would certainly be the most beautiful period of my life. Despite family conflicts, school conflicts, loneliness, and fear, I was happy. I was happy because they were all there, happy because they always remained, despite my faults, and happy. After all, I knew that I had not yet experienced the worst. Happy because I knew, that sooner or later everything would end. So yes, I was as cowardly and useless as they all claimed and even more naive than they would have believed, but this vision that I had at that age kept me going. Although the truth was hard to accept, I was given no choice. So I accepted life as it came; I accepted myself and my truth, my weaknesses, and the fact that I had to get used to the idea that I would always be the first actor to die in films.

Resurgence
WORK IN PROGRESS‼️ ─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ── There was no noise; I was at peace, and ironically, the stone-cold pavement never seemed warmer as my blood oozed out of me and around me like a painted canvas. I was slowly losing consciousness, but my mind never seemed happier now that I was dying. The white walls with big bright lights did not resemble heaven; in fact, it was quite the opposite. I thought I had died. When I came to, I found myself in this strange place, disoriented and confused. I looked around and found another five pairs of eyes looking at me with the same emotion swirling in their gaze. Now, 15 years later, I train with these girls. Our makers take care of us, feed us, and make sure we are clean, healthy, and fit. Some of us never had that; that's probably why it took so long for us to realize we were being used. The dirty work they made us do, none of us questioned it. How could we when we were taken off the streets? For a chance at normalcy, we settled for anything, even if that meant blurring the lines of right and wrong. After a mission gone haywire, we started noticing, and now we strike back to take our voices and reclaim the power that was used on us as a way to control us. After all, they are the ones who trained us; we are just returning our long-overdue favour. ─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ── Rankings : Featured in Mystery-thriller #5 in Mystery-thriller on 7/12/24
UNPLUGGED
High in the clouds above the planet of Venus, thirty students from Venus City Academy class 37 have been unplugged. Since the introduction of the highly addictive virtual reality known as Plugnet, a social crisis has begun to escalate in the planet's cloud-cities. Entire generations of Venusians are growing up and living their whole lives inside of devices called Plugtanks. While inside of these life-supporting tanks, they are constantly connected to the virtual reality leading to a total collapse of real world socialisation and the loss of ability to physically connect to other humans. To tackle this desocialisation crisis, the Venus City has developed a variety of special projects. Class VC37 has been selected for one of these projects. All thirty students in the class are being forcefully unplugged from their tanks, and thrust, anxious, afraid and ill equipped, back into physical reality. Forced to cohabitate with other students and to develop their social, physical and romantic relationships in order to complete the project, the students of VC37 will have to learn to adapt to their new existence and to depend on each other in order to survive the project and potentially earn themselves a ticket to leave Venus and the dopamine grip of Plugnet far behind for good.
