Z A Y N

I always had this fear of leaving. This fear of having to let go. And it hurts inside me to know that i will be doing what i fear of very soon.

Well, it started like this, I was given this watch by my grandmother before she passed away. She told me that it was very important and nobody must know about it. Nobody. But it never really worked. I tried to find the battery panel but i never found it. So i just kept it in the mess of my room.

I never saw it again after 20 years.

I did many things that i am happy and unhappy about. A mix of good and bad in my life.

Then mum cleaned my room one day and found the watch. She talked to me about it and it didn't hit me about how serious she was about it.

I told her that gran gave it to me. She was furious. I didn't understand why she was so mad! It was just a watch.

So i asked her what was in that watch.

And she told me that this was the watch that counted, not time, but mistakes. Whoever gets the watch that was passes on from whoever, was to be under the watch's look out. And every mistake i made was counted by this watch, of course i didn't believe. So i tested it out.

I said a bad word to my little sister and the watch moved. It marked 12:00 am. And thats when mum told me how the watch worked. And i believed everything.

Every mistake or faulty action i make will lead to the time moving forward. If the watch hits the exact time of the real date and time in present, i will disappear from earth. I will still be around but as a ghost. So the only way to break it is to "unfold the past, redo the mass" as what is inscribed into the back of the watch. But nobody had a clue on how to do that, or what it meant.

My mission now was to stop from doing bad and keep doing good! I guess...
