"No fair!" screamed Billy
"Now Billy, Tom is older so he has first pick of grandpa's stuff, may he Rest In Peace". Dad said
"Yeah!" Tom said as he pushed Billy to the side.
Tom walked to an old dresser and pulled open the top drawer. He pulled out a decorated wooden box.
"Oooh, I want this!" Tom said
"Okay Billy now you can pick something". Dad said.
Billy started looking in the opposite side of the room, far away from Tom.
Tom opened the wooden box and pulled out a small silver pocket watch with a long silver chain.
"Ugh, I don't want this stupid watch!" Tom blurted our in disgust.
Tom threw the pocket watch back in the box and chucked the box behind him, smashing on the floor.
"TOM! WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH YOU?!" Dad yelled across the room.
Dad rushed over and grabbed Tom by the wrist and began yelling his ear off.
Billy found this very amusing, maybe he would spank Tom right in front of him, like Dad did to Billy yesterday, for laughing during Grandpa's service.
Billy looked at the now broken box and examined the pocket watch, it had a small crack across it's face. Billy didn't know if it was there before or after Tom had tossed the box.
Billy began looking closer at the pocket watch and saw a small button at the top of the watch.
"What do you do?" Billy asked while pushing the button.

Billy looked at the watch but it seemed to have no effect what so ever. Billy decided to ask his dad, but kept his eyes glued to the watch.
"Hey Dad, what's this small button do on the top of this watch?"
Billy looked up and didn't realize how quiet the room had become. He also just noticed the fact that Tom and his dad were stuck in place...like statues.
"Tom? Dad?!" Billy was perplexed.
Billy took Tom's arm and it was very easy to move, like an action figure.
Billy asked, "Tom are you faking it?"
No response.
Billy had a funny idea. Billy took Tom's arm and arranged it in front of Tom's chest he then took Tom's pointer finger and jammed it up Tom's left nostril.
Billy was laughing so hard!! Billy thought Tom looked so stupid.
"Okay Tom, you can stop now". Billy chuckled
Tom didn't moved
"Dad, Tom won't stop pretending..."
But Billy realized Dad wasn't doing anything either, neither of them were.
Billy become worried
"Why won't you guys stop pretending, we don't have time..." Billy suddenly realized something
"I wondered" Billy said as he pressed the pocket watch button again.
-Click-
Instantly Dad and Tom started moving again
"....AND WHY DO YOU THINK THROWING SOMETHING THAT IS NOT YOURS ACROSS THE ROOM IS OKAY?!...AND GET YOUR FINGER OUT OF YOUR NOSE WHEN IM TALKING TO YOU!!" Dad screamed
"I'm sorry sir, I had to pick my nose" Tom said apologetically
Billy couldn't believe it, he actually stopped time and not only that, he made Tom believe that his actions were his own.
"I want this!" Billy announced
This was going to be fun.
