The Sunday Whirl

***

“Look at that clock, it’s turning so fast, it actually creaks!” Everyone turned and saw no change in the minutes or hour. The second hand moved slowly as always. Joe stood rooted in one spot, his eyes glued to the clock. Suddenly the years displayed on the bottom of the wooden timepiece started to stir. No one but Joe acknowledged this. Then Joe’s voice started to echo through the room, but still everyone seemed oblivious. “Before this slips into another year going by, I think the loop will be stopped if you all just look at it!” It was then Joe heard footsteps behind him and everyone started laughing. Another successful New Year’s Eve prank on Joe.
