In the shadow-drenched halls of 2026, Milo, a seemingly cheerful student, nurses a debilitating secret: an escalating drug addiction, a fractured home life under an abusive father, and a heart shattered by unrequited love for his classmate, Oli. Every forced smile is a mask, every tremor a silent scream against the encroaching darkness. As his obsession with Oli deepens, fueled by a desperate hope for salvation that Oli can never provide, Milo finds himself spiraling. The weight of his hidden pain intensifies, pushing him to the precipice of self-harm. He dreams of an escape, a quiet end to the endless torment, but the world continues to demand he pretend, that he endures. Can he find a reason to live, or will he succumb to the siren song of oblivion?
