In the Mist

[Dual male protagonists + double cleansing + first person + redemption + be] (A book that came out of nowhere) —— I have somatic dissociation. I have been trapped in a layer of fog all year round, The body and consciousness are thousands of miles apart, unable to touch reality, and unable to discern the human world. There is someone standing outside the fog, with a harsh mouth, cold words, and never gentleness. But every time I was about to fall apart, he stretched out his hand to hold me back. Later I realized—— Reality hurts too much, so I hid in my dreams. People in dreams don't lie. Won't leave, won't disappear. And I would rather never wake up from the dream.
