Life Shattering

My eyes closed and my head leaned back as my hand lost its grip and my bottle went spiraling downward. Time slowed down as I opened my eyes and looked down, my bottle just about to hit the floor, hovering in mid air. Then the bottom disappeared, liquid and glass spreading out on the floor like lava coming out of a volcano, rippling from time as more of the bottom made impact to the floor. The neck of the bottle flew off to the side, smashing up against the wall.

I close my eyes and time finds its way back. The sound of glass shattering makes it to my ears. I feel liquid start to pool around my feet, shards of glass nip at my toes. The numbness, fades.

Finally, it sinks in,

Just how screwed are we?
