Robert wakes up next day morning. His mom asks him to have a breakfast. But Robert doesn't respond to her. He switched on the TV and starts watching the news. His mom doesn't care him. She does her work. No one knows that he is in a depression. He watches that most of the people died by COVID. Many countries do not have the place to bury the dead bodies. Also, the families can not see their family person when they died by COVID.
He sees the people' crying, and all the things. The world is fully covered by the death in various ways such as COVID, poverty, and the people start killing or cheating each other for Money and food. The world starts suffering by the economy. Many people lost their job. Robert thinks everything and he keeps on thinking all the day. He could not eat the food. The depression starts covering him very thickly day by day. Robert keeps on praying for the people. He could not tolerate everything.
Whenever he tries to have food, he will feel vomiting. So he doesn't eat well daily. He eats a very less amount of food. His family members do not notice him. They think that he is happy and normal.

One day, that depression starts torturing Robert. He couldn't have a peaceful mind. Always, he starts to have negative things. He doesn't think any negative things or dirty things. But his brain starts giving the negative things by depression. He tries to talk with any other friends through the phone calls to come out from this. He calls one of the friends name called Deepa.
She doesn't attend his call. Then, he calls a few more friends. No one attends his calls. He feels like crying. His eyes are tearing. Then, Robert thinks to send the message to the friends to make a conversation. He sends "Hi" to a few of his friends. No one replies to him and one of the friends say that he is very busy now.
Robert feels heart broken. He doesn't know that what to do. He thinks to make a conversation with his cousins. So he goes to his cousin's house.

Robert plays with them and he feels happy there. He doesn't feel any negative things there. He thinks that here after that depression and the negative Things will never come to his mind. So he is really happy and goes to his house. The night comes closer.
Again, the negative things starts coming to his mind. It starts torturing him. He feels so scary.

The negative things say that the world will become as a cemetery. No one will escape from this disaster. The people will die and die day by day. There is no end for this.

He says, "No no....my god will rescue the world. The people should not die. I can't see the people's dying. I can't able to see these things...".
He says this and starts crying. Then, he starts praying for the people and the world.

He goes to sleep after this. He thinks to have a peaceful sleep. Again, the negative things start coming in his mind. He holds his head tightly and closes his eyes. He feels the headache too. Then, he takes the mobile phone and starts sending messages to his friends. As usual, no one replies him. Some of the people say, "Good Night".
Some of the friends say, "I feel sleepy. I will talk to you tomorrow".
Some of the friends are there in online. They see the message. But they don't reply to him.
Some of the friends say, "I feel very tired. Good night".
Robert reads all the messages and he feels very disappointed. He thinks that there are a lot of people in my contact lists. But no one is ready to spend time with me. Why?.
He feels very sad. At the same time, the depression starts killing him. He feels so scared. He doesn't know that how to come out from this. He can't able to sleep. Because the mind starts torturing him. He feels lonely. He gets teary eyes. He cries very slowly. He controls it. Because he doesn't want his parents to see this.
His house is very tiny house. Even, he has a separate room. But there is no door in it. So he thinks to handle it very calmly.

He thinks that no one sends reply. Because his friends hate him for his ugly look.
He underestimates him. He thinks that it will be good if he has anyone now to get hug or comfort to come out from the depression. He thinks about his loneliness and closes his eyes to get a peaceful sleep. But he doesn't sleep. Almost the time is 4am, even he can't able to sleep.

Later, he is sleeping peacefully.
