Mature

Once, she woke up in a warm, soft bed surrounded by towering city buildings.
    
    Now, she wakes up wrapped in threadbare sheets in the wilderness.
    
    Once, she raided the fridge for delicious food, snacks and ice cream. 
    
    Now, she hunts for meat every day to keep the hunger at bay.
    
    Once, her goal for life was to get a job, make money, be happy.
    
    But now? Now there is only one goal: To survive. 
    
                                                   ➳ ➳ ➳
    
    This is the story of Leila, a lost girl in a broken world. 
    
    The pandemic of 2020 was the catalyst for a reaction that shook the planet, leaving it barren, devastated and ruined. The Earth as we know it exists no more and each day is a struggle to stay alive. 
    
    But when Darius, a mysterious boy, enters Leila's life, her world turns upside down. Together they embark on an emotional journey, figuring out what it means to live, to love, and most importantly, to survive.
