The first time it happened, I was pouring coffee. The stream paused mid-air, suspended between pot and mug. Not frozen—still perfectly liquid, still obeying gravity—but held between the moment of falling and the moment of landing. I could see individual droplets suspended like dark stars. Then it resumed, and the coffee splashed over my hand, burning. I thought I'd imagined it until I noticed the clock on the microwave had skipped forward exactly seventeen seconds while I wasn't watching. Not the numbers changing. The time itself. Gone. Or rather—gone somewhere else. And something else had come back in its place. I could feel it in my bones, like the aftertaste of a dream you can't quite remember but know was important. I know because my reflection blinked wrong when I looked up from rinsing my hand under cold water. A fraction too late, as if it had to be told what to do first. As if it had been somewhere else too. And now it knew that I knew. And it was waiting for the next gap to grow wider. They always do, eventually. They always want to be filled. Nature abhors a vacuum. But what if the vacuum has learned to hunger too?
