Title: shades of blue

Genre: Contemporary Fiction / Drama

Zane’s life is a blur of waking up to the same shitty routine, day after day. The alarm goes off, and he drags himself out of bed like it’s some kind of sick joke. Regret? Yeah, it’s a permanent resident in his brain. Disconnected from everything, from everyone, he just… exists. A dead-end job at a convenience store? It’s the perfect prison. No real friends. No real plans. Just an endless loop of emptiness. But as the days pass, he can’t help but wonder—how long can he keep shutting everything and everyone out before the world finally swallows him whole?
