Silent Meaning

1. Prologue

"Please be kind and change your clothes color to purple. Purple is the new white of the month." - monotonous female voice kept repeating.

That irritating voice could be heard in the whole city. Schools, subways, parks - you name it. There was no way you can escape that voice. Always the same monotonous tone, repeating new "suggestions" on how to improve and extend your life. I hate it! I hate the Town, and most of it`s inhabitants! Everybody does what they are told to, or what was expected. Everyone is so successful, beautiful and young - in a word BORING!!!. Everyone and everything looks the same.

The whole Town is built in a form of a equilateral triangle with a massive round park in the center of it. Buildings are the same sizes and same shapes, each one looking just like the other. It would be pretty easy to lose yourself in it, but there are personal GPS thingies which you are obligated by the law to carry with you, navigating where you need to be at the moment.

No money is needed. Last few generations, myself included, learned about it from books and museum exhibitions. There`s no need to buy anything - you get exactly what you need, in amounts that you need. Medical chips are inserted under the skin of just born children which are connected to the Main Computer. Main Computer controls and knows everything. It makes sure that if by any chance something in your body changes, you get instant medical treatment. GPS thingy would point a direction to the nearest medical center where you would get treated.

Have I mentioned that I HATE this place?   

I`m planning to escape this... I don`t even know how to call it anymore... Anyways I`m planning to flee the Town as soon as it gets possible. 

Where will I go? 

Anywhere but here. Even dying in the Great Desert is better than life in here - or should I call it with the correct name - SLAVERY!

  • Kyle J DurrantI like this world. Not that I'd want to live there, but I like the world you've made. I think that says it better :)
    A few typos here and there, but it's easy to understand what you're saying/what you mean. So yeah. More please :)
    Could you take a look at my Movella: Ignis in Caelo? If so, thanks in advance.
    Again, really liking this story :) - Danté
  • Tylar Jaydethis is a good start, but i think that it should be "everyone is" not "everyone are." otherwise it's a great start(: could you please read my story, "the summer i'd never forget."?
