The Gamer

Ravi's love for gaming wasn't accidental. It started when he was ten, a birthday gift from his father-a second-hand console with a copy of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.

His father, a workaholic businessman, promised to play with him every weekend. But those weekends never came. The console became Ravi's escape, a world where he could control outcomes, unlike the unpredictable life around him.

When his father passed away, the console became more than a game, it
became a companion. As he grew older, Ravi upgraded his gear, moving from consoles to PC gaming. PUBG became his battlefield, and with every headshot and victory, he felt a sense of control he lacked in real life.
But control came with a cost.

"I play because it makes me feel like I can win," Ravi often thought, brushing aside the growing distance between him and his family.
