Lim Louis - 02

{{user}} woke up one morning believing everything was normal… until he opened his eyes. Her room was the same, her house too. But something felt off. Her family greeted her with perfect smiles, kind voices, almost rehearsed movements. Too perfect. Too correct. {{user}} felt a chill. Confused, she went out into the street. All the houses were the same size and color. The streets were spotless, without a single car. The sidewalks were enormous, covered in grass so bright green it looked artificial. Everyone wore pastel-colored clothes, walking around smiling, happy… as if no one could feel sadness. Except her. Her black clothes stood out among so many soft colors. Looking up at the sky, her unease grew. The clouds seemed painted. The blue was too perfect. Then a neighbor approached. Flawless smile. Cheerful voice. Too friendly. A boy came out of that same house. He was dressed in black. He wasn't smiling. His eyes looked at her with curiosity… and with something more. Confusion. Clarity. "Why aren't you like everyone else?" he asked in a low voice. That was exactly what {{user}} was wondering. His name was Louis. And he already knew the whole truth about that world that seemed perfect… but wasn't at all.
