Every life drifts somewhere. Some drift on purpose. Some drift by accident. Most drift without ever knowing why.
Distractions follows Kai, a man slipping through different versions of his own life, searching for the truth he has spent years avoiding. Each world reflects a different version of himself. Some comfort him. Some expose him. Some hold up a mirror he can no longer ignore.
This is not a story about alternate realities. It is a story about the quiet spaces people stop noticing. The mornings that feel slightly off. The choices that haunt you longer than the memories. The moments when a person finally realizes the thing breaking inside them is not the world. It is the version of themselves they keep abandoning.
As Kai drifts between worlds that want to love him, use him, trap him, or numb him, one truth rises to the surface. The life he wants does not appear when things fall into place. It appears when he chooses the version of himself who is willing to stay.
Told with emotional clarity and quiet psychological depth, Distractions explores identity, presence, and the slow, painful return to the life a person was meant to live. It is a novel for anyone rebuilding themselves in silence. A story for people learning how to stop running. A reminder that clarity is not found in the world we chase, but in the self we finally choose.
If you have ever felt lost inside your own life, this book will meet you where you are.
