Freeze.24.05.17.Anna.Claire.Clouds.Timeless.Mot...

Anna woke to a sound that wasn't sound. It was the hush of the world inhaling—an impossible stillness pulled taut like glass. She sat up and checked the clock: 05:17. The numbers were ordinary, stubbornly modern, but the air in her room felt like a photograph: colors intact, motion arrested, edges sharpened until they hurt.

Anna carried with her a small, battered watch whose hands had stopped at 05:17 years ago. She set it against her palm and felt a low thrum, like the echo of a heartbeat under stone. The watch had been in her family for generations—an heirloom that had never kept accurate time and yet had led her through griefs and reckonings. She lifted it now and found that its glass had fogged with a fine frost. Inside, in miniature, a tiny cloud drifted, labeled with the same neat script: Timeless.

So here is to May 17. To whatever you were doing, Anna. To you, Claire. To the clouds that have long since dissolved and reformed over other cities. You didn't freeze. But you are remembered. And perhaps that is the only eternity we get.
