I have discovered many things about myself. Being

locked in my house for so long, made me realized
how I like spending time alone. I was enjoying it to
the point of wishing that this quarantine would

never end. It is strange and uncomfortable when I
talk to my friends and they start talking about how

much they want to go out and how much they hate
quarantine, how excited they are when there is any
news about the end of this confinement, because

while that is what they want the most, it is what I
least want to happen. I really like staying for hours
lying down imagining universes where I am the

protagonist of a great adventure, leaving my house
late at night to admire the mountain scenery and
the mist that covers it, I like to lie in bed and relax

while watching my favorite anime and movies
without being interrupted by anyone.

Everything sounds perfect, and it is. Until that time
when loneliness brings me unwanted or malicious

thoughts to destroy my tranquility, it is as if my own
mind played dirty and made me suffer with my own
ideas. It is like the typical idea that you have the

devil on your left shoulder and the angel on your
right, only that over time that stability was
destroyed, thus ending with two little devils on each

side speaking to my ear.

talking to them, I lived locked in my room all day,
