I was walking along the road next to my college and the day was very pleasant and sunny. It was one of those days when everything was going right for me. I had just spoken to my teachers and I had won a scholarship to study in France. My parents were over the moon with happiness and a hearty celebration was waiting for me at my house. I live in the suburbs of Mumbai and it is a long journey back to my home.

I was really happy until something happened that would change my life forever. Time stopped. Now when I say time stopped I don’t mean some bad event happened like an accident or something that made time go slower than usual and I was in shock or something. Time literally stopped. I was about to get into a bus when I suddenly saw the people around me. Their faces were suspended mid-expression. I could see a little boy chasing a dog and he was hanging in the air and the dog wasn’t running anymore. I looked at my watch and saw that it was stuck at 10.45 am. I didn’t know what else to do. None of the vehicles were moving. I tried calling my parents from my cell phone and I noticed that even in my cell phone time had stopped at 10.45 am. I was shocked beyond belief.

It seemed that I was the only one able to move at all. The animals and trees had stopped all kinds of movement. There was no wind. In fact all the living beings had stopped all movement. At first I thought I had to get to the bottom of this. I thought maybe it happened only here. I thought maybe this was all a bad dream but I was pretty sure it wasn’t a dream. This was real life and I don’t know how this had happened. I walked till my house and I saw everywhere that everything had stopped. I accepted my fate that day and every day since then has been a colossal torture. I soon realized that this was happening all over the world and it has been three years now since that fateful first day when time had stopped. I still live alone as the only living being that can move.
