Flicker

Flicker

By Brinda Phokeerdass

"Time is a fickle thing, bending to the will of those who dare to control it. But with each flicker, a ripple is born-one that cannot be undone."

In a world fractured by the reckless collapse of time, Rei Tanakas life is an echo of something that never should have been. At just 16, they are gifted-or cursed-with the ability to slip through moments, to burn time and rewrite history. But with each shift, Rei unravels the delicate fabric of reality itself, leaving behind forgotten memories and altered fates.

Haunted by the unexplained death of their mother and pursued by an all-powerful global force known as the Chrono Authority, Rei embarks on a desperate quest to restore what has been lost. But the more they tamper with time, the more they realize: nothing remains untouched. Not their world, not their memories, not even themselves.

As Rei spirals through fractured timelines and confronts the specter of their own future, they must grapple with an impossible choice-sacrifice everything they know to save the very fabric of time... or watch reality collapse under the weight of their own actions.

Flicker is a haunting, heart-pounding tale of memory, loss, and the dangerous power of time. Brinda Phokeerdasss chilling prose invites you into a world where nothing is certain, and every choice could be your last.
