Rohan deleted the emulator. He went to bed at 12:30 AM. He dreamed of a loading bar that never reached 100%.
He could feel it now. The edges of his mind fuzzing. He couldn’t remember his mother’s maiden name. He couldn’t remember what color his first bicycle was. Those were the “compressed” parts.
The search bar glowed in the dim light of Rohan’s bedroom. His fingers, greasy from a half-eaten bag of chips, hovered over the keyboard. It was 11:47 PM. School was a lost cause tomorrow anyway.
