## Description
"After a scientific attempt to expand human sensory abilities, children started to be born with abilities to see information that shouldn't be possible.

Josh has one of the less impressive abilities, able to time it out exactly when someone speaks within close range of him or directly to him from further away.

But then the clock above his best friend disappears and they are hospitalized soon after. It's suspected that this was no accident...

Tensions begin to mount and the question slowly rises...

Are they sure they understood what their eyes told them correctly?"
