The Comet
Follow up where it left off,

The next morning,
Waking suddenly by a bright light the beam of light was bright. Blinded by the light I squinched my eyes Hearing the sound of the city outside, I Looked around sitting up realizing I was in my room.
Sitting on the edge of the bed I couldn't remember what had happened to ask my self " What had happened, How did I get back home - I'm sure I was out in the bush or was I dreaming.
Wiping my eyes Scratching my head recalling what happened I couldn't remember how I got home last night.
Yawning as I stood up stretching when walking to the bathroom.
Turning on the faucet Washing my face, Starring into the mirror I took a deep breath staring at my reflection! RING “ My phone rang.
It rang again, I rushed out to answer it. Noticing It was my boss I answering it,
Why aren't you at work " What, Don't what me why aren’t you at work, I looked at the time, Oh shit, Sorry Boss "You're sorry, you better get here now,
Noticing the time 9:15 am " the boss yelled You should be here, Hurry up and get to work. answering yes Sir! Sorry. I'm on my way. Hang in g up the phone I Rushed around grabbing my bag and keys running out the door. Throwing the phone onto the lounge, I ran out the door slamming it behind me, The piece of the fragment that was on the bench glowed dimly when I didn't even see it as I went out the door.
Arriving at work my boss stood near his door when I walked in staring at me with disappointment on his face I gazed at him then put my head down as I went past him everyone sat and stared at me as I apologies to him.

It felt like time wasn't moving it was at a standstill. The day went slow, Time felt like it was going nowhere. but I had plenty of work to do.
Staring up at the clock I couldn't help my self watching the hand tick by, gazing upon
The file I worked on taking notes and reading over the case file.
It felt like hours went by but it didn't,
With the sound of the clock, you can hear the hand ticking away.
I Leaned back yawning as I wiped my eyes. Looking around everyone was working. focusing on their job as I starred at the time realizing it was only an hour later " WTF " I replied out loud. Dave looked up starring at me with shock in his eyes, Other workers also stared at me with a strange look upon their faces.
" You alright Phil, " Dave asked, Reacting quickly yeah am fine I said as I starred back down.
Dave looked at me in a curious look as he went back to work, I placed my head down with a gentle tilt looking back at him making sure he wasn't looking.
I tried not to look or think about the time just focus on work, Head down concentrating on the job at hand.
The time went slow it felt it took forever to come around but lucky it was 11:59 ' Lunchtime. Dave glances over and says its lunchtime Phil are you going downstairs to the cafe Looking over...
