How did I lose?

I am playing as white and I don't understand how I lost this game? Black won by timeout. I thought if the time runs out it's whoever scored more points/won more pieces wins? I was taking his pieces easily, I don't understand

If you run out of time you lose and the person you play against wins

I don’t understand people in this place. You are nearly 500 elo. It’s not like you have played only 3 games, yet you don’t understand how timeout works?? My god

Not always. Someone who runs out of time can get a draw from insufficient material, but yea, they can’t win. Draw or loss.
