Social isolation had forced an eerie silence upon them. While fear haunted their existence, one question was at the forefront.
When was this going to end?

Though fear clung to them and haunted their very existence. All they wanted was out. All they thought about was freedom. Everyone has had that dream at least once. That dream of not having to go to work. Or not having to go outside. If you say you've never had that dream not a single instant in your life. Then you are a liar!

People have always dreamt of staying at home all day. Not having to worry about doing anything but laying around and sleeping.
Dreaming and laying around aimlessly.
However, when that dream becomes a reality... People become impatient.
They become angry.
They become sad .
They become hungry.
Ferociously hungry for freedom.

And then they later ask themselves did they really have true freedom in the first place?
Then they realise "Ahh! We've never had true freedom to begin with."
But at this point, they no longer care.
Because a little bit of freedom is better than no freedom at all.
