Towards the past

Due to a glitch in the cosmos, the fabric of time and space was folded. The future, so it seems, becomes the past. Since the beginning of time, the Creator had laughed at the naivety of mankind for believing that there would always be a tomorrow. A father made a promise to his 5 year old son to bring him to the zoo tomorrow but on his way to work that day, he had a cardiac arrest and died. An empty promise he had made, even though it was not exactly his fault. An 18 year old girl waiting till the day she gathered enough courage to ask her lab partner to the prom. Alas, the lab partner, a fine handsome young man, was killed in a freak bike accident. The girl spent prom night gorging on Ben and Jerry's and snicker bars. She became obese 3 years later and suffered a stroke 7 years after the death of her lab partner. 
Men sometimes forget that tomorrow does not exist and its existence is only a make-believe one in our silly little human minds.
It is only till the glitch in the cosmos that the humans realize their folly, perhaps a little too late. What they have now is only yesterday and with this realization, comes an impending sense of doom. Without a tomorrow, surely they will be progressing towards Armageddon-the extinction of all mankind.
