There was this short sci fi story I think about a lot. I forgot what it's called but it's essentially about some kind of particle (it's physics related) that floats around the universe and has the ability to engulf everything in it's path or something? The story is about the last few hours on earth when one such particle happens to stumble into our solar system. Ill have to dig it up.

Edit: Found it! It's called "the blue afternoon that lasts forever"

Well. My child is that age and I very much relate to the protagonist. Was not expecting a gut-punch this afternoon.
