Thank you for your submission! A bit of feedback on it to help you truly compete: pay close attention to the thematic prompts for the contest. In order for this piece to be considered for placing anywhere in the top 5, it has to have a central theme of a timepiece, which is absent from your current story. I would suggest an edit of the story to be more compliant with the contest rules and stipulations, otherwise, it will be disqualified. This will be the only time I make note of it, as a thorough reading and understanding of the rules is an important consideration the judges make when judging pieces for winners.
