The Surge

Rosely Dulcis Fides views the world as small. A raging disease struck the earth so society decided to move into confinement. Separated from her parents, Rosely spends her days living in a care home in which she is the eldest, she has no contact with the outside world or her family, minimal supplies are beamed to different stations. Different classes and social structures have been born as well as an monthly INCILE test that determines your body's wellbeing, monitoring your nutrition, fitness and mental states. This had become the norm for Rosely, just like everyone else did she dealt with the side effects of the disease and put her trust into the Rulers to sort it. On a average morning, a young boy called Ky is transported into her Care home. He's a curious yet mysterious boy who Rosely takes interest too. Throughout the month her days begin to get weirder as she becomes closer to this boy. Secrets about the care home and her world startle Rosely as her perspective on everything changes. She begins to understand,to change and mature as a person. The secrets Ky tells her shatter her world but somehow let her through to a better one, with him. This is a story of repetitive failures, young love and pure curiosity of what is real and what is not. Can you love a boy who is barely real? Can you question a world that others trust? Rosely Fides observed the world in small parts, it wasn't until she met Ky that she realised how big it was.
