ROSE
Rose, haunted by a mysterious golden blur in her dreams and a nagging inner voice, battles anxiety as she navigates New York City. A crucial interview at Zane Megacorp could be her lifeline, but a challenging encounter at Gigi's café and the enigmatic 'Gatto selvatico' threaten to derail her carefully planned life. Will Rose ace the interview and find stability, or will the chaos of her inner and outer worlds consume her?
The dream came again. The endless chase after a golden blur, the searing agony in my eyes, the desperate zeal to catch it, only to fall, again and again. I jolted awake, heart hammering, sweat drenching my oversized T-shirt. The radio clock glowed 5:15 a.m.
After a quick shower and a battle with my tangled hair, I pulled on my favorite yoga pants and sweatshirt. With BTS blasting through my earphones, I hit the New York streets, the cold morning air a balm to my frazzled mind. My thoughts drifted to the day ahead: an interview at Zane Megacorp, a chance to bring my wayward life into perspective.
I stopped my jog, breathless, my watch reading 6:20 a.m. Time to head back, shower, and prepare for the battle.
