Summary

Ever sneezed and felt like your soul was just about to leave your body? Well, Marcus never imagined such an absurd thing could happen to him either, because it literally did. **** One minute he was at a house party, the next he found himself sneezing so bad, he could swear he felt his soul leave his body. Or did it? All Marcus Velasco knew was that he found himself in a weird reality with the last person he expected to see at the moment. What was more, there was a twenty-four-hour timer embedded at the back of his wrist with a quest to find his way back home within that span of time. It was either that, or his heart would stop if he didn't meet the requirements before the time was up. He was faced with two choices, and whichever one he made would cost him the other. Would Marcus make it back in time? Or risk losing his soul forever in a dream fatale. That in the first place, was if Marcus could realize what home truly meant before it was too late.

🥀PROLOGUE 🥀

§ Achoo! §


The petals of cherry blossoms fell from the trees, the wind rustling through them on one clear spring afternoon.


There she was, running and shouting his name as he chased her down the school's hallway during lunch break.


Although they both knew it was against the school rules, they didn't care.


"Marcus!" She called, her sweet and melodious voice roaring with laughter as she tried all she could to evade his grasp.

But not for long because soon, he took her in an embrace from behind once they reached outside.


The sun had never shone so brightly at that moment as he gazed into her beautiful brown eyes.


She laughed so heartily without a care in the world, like a free spirit.


A soft melody settled in his lovestruck heart, "Aria, my beautiful spring..."


Fear steadily gripped his heart knowing they could only delay the inevitable for so long.


"If only this moment would not end..."


But Marcus understood this wish to only be a pipe dream.


~Achoo!~
