Kera was nineteen when the world as she knew it changed. She would have considered that discovering that life existed outside Earth to be a thrilling experience but little did she know the price that she would be asked to pay for that.
Fifteen years later, her entire young adult life seems to converge to this one point of time. All her achievements, all her loses, all her love, all her confusion, all her questions and it was time for some answers. Her pain at losing the world as she knew it, her struggles to make a place for herself in the new one and the one person whom she perceived to be the link between the two worlds and herself.
This is Kera's journey of not losing herself and finding everything else, her journey through the second that changed her life, the story of a second's difference.
