Countdown.
He’d noticed the numbers, they all had. It had been an annoyance at first. Days passed and it diminished. No one in the office mentioned it yet they all had spotted it. One by one the numbers on the screens reached 00. One by one the programmers disappeared. Where had they gone.
(280 Characters).

We’re the programmers connected to the count down? Or was it just that they were disappearing and the numbers were marking it?

To my mind the programmers had no idea why the countdown had started, sadly the disappeared so we may never know unless they come back ! 🙃🦇

“come back Shane, come back!”
Oct 22, 2019 @ 16:16:06

Oct 22, 2019 @ 16:20:16
Oh! I see, thank you 😜🦇
Oct 22, 2019 @ 16:19:45
Ooooh, this is scary. Who’ll fix the internet?
Oct 22, 2019 @ 16:21:02
Not those guys, Robbie they are gone 🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇
Oct 22, 2019 @ 22:51:58
Wow! That’s scary. There was a movie a few years ago where people had a countdown clock embedded in their arm. That would freak me out. I’m better not knowing when my time comes! ❤️

Yes I remember an old film called Logan’s run, where people were only allowed to live to thirty and when they approached their 30th birthday a light in their wrist changed colour. Then on their 30th birthday they have to go to Renewal which was basically an execution….not nice. My guys were more just disappearing more than dying, where did they go??
Oct 23, 2019 @ 21:14:50
Exactly! Where did they go?! Hmmmm 😊❤️😊
Oct 23, 2019 @ 21:52:12
Well Logan and his friends went in search of Scantuary but didn’t find it! As for the programmers I think the computers ate them 😟🦇

Oct 24, 2019 @ 12:38:38
Haha! ❤️💜❤️

Truly spooky!!! Yes, I have known computer geeks to just disappear when things get to heavy with trying to fix something smarter than we are . . . chuckles
Oct 23, 2019 @ 10:26:38
Yes indeed 💜💜
Oct 23, 2019 @ 10:54:19
I like this, am a bit scared because of it, but geeks do sometimes seem to vanish…
Oct 23, 2019 @ 11:02:01
Yes they do 🦇💜
Oct 24, 2019 @ 23:52:19
Nice mystery, Willow!
Oct 25, 2019 @ 05:12:21
Thank you Robert, will they be back 💜💜
