The day I got my clock I got so worried. Especially at night. All I could hear was that tic tic tic tic from the clock. It hurt my ears. My mom told me it was normal. Her time was running out really fast. Mine on the other hand was going slowly. Most of us got our clock before others. I was the last in my class to get one. I didn't want it at all. Everyone was so excited when theirs came up but i don't think that they knew what having a clock ment….
My clock has just shown up today. Its tics are slow but still loud. Everyone at school are bragging about theirs. I don't know why but I don't even look at mine. I can feel its tics beating on my arm. I can't wait until it just stops…..My mom always tells me that it will soon, to not wish it went by faster. I don't think that she understands how I feel. She won't have to deal with hers for much longer. I saw it a few days ago and it said she only has 1:20:15.{one month 20 days and 15 hours}She told me that it would end soon enough. But for some reason yesterday she went to the hospital, when someone goes to the hospital in this place they never come back. I think it's because of these clocks.
We all have these clocks,they show up at random. My best friend Rachel, just found out what happens at the hospital…
She won't even tell me though. When every i ask her she just gets sad. I just try to avoid asking.
I really want to know why know one will tell me. My mom hasnt came back yet either. Im worried. Even some of our teachers have gone missing with out any notice or telling anyone.
I wonder if every one is going missing just because of these clocks. I herd that the faster the tic the less time you have. I don't belive them. School has started to get worse. NO one belives me when i try to tell them that there dangerous. Im always called a liar. Why do they not belive me. Maybe one day……………………………
Rachel looks at me with out her usual smile and very hestitanty says," I found out that miss Carlto won't be here for much longer."
Wait why would rachel tell me this she knows Miss Carlto is my favorite teacher! I really hope she will be ok and won't have to go to the hospital.
As if by an auto matic response she hits my arm and states in a loud tone,"Hellllooooo miss distracted your daydreaming again…."
Wait how would she know miss carlto wont be here anymore? Did she get a sneek peak at her clock or what. Who knows with rachel. Maybe she just wanted to prank me or somthing...
"GIRL LISTEN!" Rachel hits my arm again.
I snap out of my own thoughts and try to figure out what is happening.
i look up to see why she hit me holding my arm i say," HUH what? what happened? How do you know about miss Carlto wont be here anymore by the way rachel?"Rachel looks down as if she doesnt want to answer. As a hundered times before the bell rang. I get up and help rachel get her bag. Even though she doesnt seem like she wants to talk to me right now. Why is she acting so weired around me right now? what is wrong with her?
"Rach are you ok? Your not acting normal..." i got really worried about her at this moment. For a good reason to....
