On Abdul’s birthday, his grandfather, gifted him a beautiful wristwatch. One night, Abdul noticed something etched inside: his own name, followed by two chilling words — “Death, Tomorrow.” (Ticking)
Terrified, he smashed the watch. It stopped.
Next morning, to his surprise, he was still alive.
Then he heard it again.“Tick. Tick.”
