That night, Rayan couldn't sleep.
Every time he closed his eyes, he saw 3:33 glowing in red.
He replayed the moment again and again.
The frozen people.
The silent world.
The girl.
The next day at school, he searched for her.
He checked every classroom.
Every corridor.
The library.
The rooftop.
Nothing.
He finally gathered the courage to ask his class teacher if a new girl had joined.
She frowned.
"No new admissions this month."
His stomach dropped.
After school, he reviewed CCTV footage from a nearby electronics store. The owner was his uncle's friend, so he allowed him to see.
The footage showed the street at 3:33 PM.
People walking.
Cars moving.
Everything normal.
But Rayan wasn't in the video.
His body wasn't there.
It was as if he had disappeared for one full minute.
A cold chill spread through his spine ❄️
If he wasn't in the footage…
Then where was he?
And more importantly—
What had he stepped into?
