It started with the lights. Circuit by circuit, grid by grid, everything flickered, then the light fell out of its place like it was never there to begin with. Lyka didn’t know what it meant, no one did, not until a while later, when the first things began emerging. But as it stood, the tech generation was on a warpath.

⭐️ Shortlisted for Contest #20

He died two days ago. The time was 7:32 AM, and he died. He was alive for 16 years, 2 months, 5 days, 7 hours and 12 minutes. Don’t worry, I counted. His mom told me his exact time of birth the day before he turned 13 so I could annoy him right then. He was alive for 16 years, 2 months, 5 days, 7 hours, 12 minutes and it was very close to 13 minutes. He was alive though, I know he was. And then, just like that, after so long, he was gone.
