Normal didn't end. It just stopped telling the truth. Catalina believes in routines, systems, and staying reasonable. But as institutions fracture, truth becomes negotiable, and silence grows more expensive, the world she trusted begins to unravel. As crises stack and certainty erodes, Catalina and those around her are forced to confront a quiet but dangerous choice: remain comfortable inside the dream of normal or wake up and face what comes next. Wake Up is a work of speculative literary fiction about awareness, complacency, and the cost of looking away. It is not a story about heroes or easy answers. It is a story about ordinary people deciding whether attention itself is an act of resistance. Because staying asleep is a choice. And so is waking up.
