A small tale of life, one story among the thousands that live throughout a city run by time, a simple world maybe, in a parallel universe where life seems simple; follow the clock and it will see you through the ages, one day at a time, one thing at a time, and when you are through with that which you have already experienced it fades from your life and you move on to the next in a steady cycle, like clockwork. But what if this was broken? After all, what are only mortals?... Humans. And being only humans sometimes they aren't ready to let go. --This story is from a little while back, it was part of a short story contest between me and some of my family members. I just recently went over it, editing and adding things, its not very well written and slightly boring, a simple slice of life pretty much, but i hope you enjoy.--- Cover Info; I did not actually create any of the images on the cover except the balcony rail shadow, the rest i found throughout the internet and put together with Gimp 2. I added the words with Photobucket. The URLs for the images i used are below: https://pixabay.com/static/uploads/photo/2014/04/02/10/52/skyline-304802_960_720.png http://static.zerochan.net/Kimi.ni.Todoke.full.245991.jpg http://www.4kphoto.net/4k/sky-girl-anime-star.jpg http://i57.tinypic.com/2d0bew9.jpg
