A few hours a day

It is a few hours a day ... What can happen ?? now the time passes and we do not know anything about it ... suddenly we find the hour indicates the fifth ... then we look at the hour we find it at one in the morning ... then What can happen in a novel .. You talk about a few hours ?? !!. A question I asked for myself .. And until now I did not find an answer to it .. So why are we not looking for the answer together?
