Chapter 1 - The Man Trapped Inside the Clock

3:17 a.m.

Roni suddenly noticed something strange—the clock on his wall was moving backward.

Tick… tick… but the sound felt like it was coming from inside, not outside.

Suddenly—the clock cracked open.

And a man stepped out… looking exactly like Roni 😳

The man said,

"Don't be afraid. I'm you… but from 10 years in the future."

Shaking, Roni asked,

"Why am I here?"

Future Roni smiled. A strange, unsettling smile.

"Because you made a mistake. And now time itself has come to fix it."

The entire room began to melt.

Walls turned liquid. The floor became the sky, the sky the floor.

Roni saw his life floating like a screen—

The message he never sent.

The opportunity he let go out of fear.

The truth he never told someone who mattered.

The Roni from inside the clock said,

"Fix just one thing. Only one."

Roni closed his eyes and said,

"I will never make myself small again."

🔥 BOOM! 🔥

The clock stopped.

Time started moving forward again.

Morning came. Roni woke up. Everything felt normal.

But inside the glass of the clock, tiny words were written—

"Good. We fixed the timeline." ⏳
