In my dreams, time isn't chronological. Events occur out of the usual order. For example, I'm being captured by the bogeyman, then he's chasing me, and then I'm encountering him. In other dreams the second event opens the dream, then comes the third, then my brain goes back to formulate what must have happened first.
Scientists insist that time is only a perception, anyway.
It has no reality. Nothing about time is a tangible reality. Yet we measure it. We use it every day to organize our lives. We make timetables.
