“ THE DAY COVID ENDS “ - Sounds so nice , doesn't it ? It's been 1 and a half years since this evil virus turned our lives upside down . people went through depression and faced many problems . The lockdown was not a cup of cake for everyone . Each and everyone faced a difficulty of their own as I faced mine .
I’m sure that everyone knows the feeling of the love and care of our grandparents . It will be so warm and safe around them . My grandpa was the best , I would say . He always loved me . In my childhood , I spent all my weekends and summer holidays in my grandpa’s house . But as I grew up , things changed . I will visit him once in a while whenever I'm free . Yet , he was always my favourite . He always supported me with my decisions and he will scold my dad if he hurt me . ofcourse , he bought me everything I liked . I used to draw silly portraits and I wanted it to be framed so that I could hang it on my walls . haha , my father refused to do it stating it was funny but , my grandpa will take that drawn paper and walk to the frame shop and he will sit for hours there and give the frame to me . so lovely isn’t it .
So as I said, days went by . this covid made a huge mess in my life . My grandpa got sick and was admitted to the hospital. Eventually he got affected by covid . I was confused , I didn't know what to do , as I was studying 12th , my parents didn’t allow me to see him because of covid . After 1 week , he died . tears were rolling down my eyes without my knowledge . The hospital doesn’t give my grandpa’s body to us to do the final rituals . They straightly took him to the graveyard . “He was wrapped in a blue bag and was thrown into a van “, my dad said . All I felt was guilt and pain and anger . I couldn't do anything . I didn't even get to say a proper goodbye to him .
It’s been a year now , and I haven't visited his room yet since he died . I'm afraid that seeing his room without him would kill me . but i’m believing that he is up there and seeing me , wishing me the best , as he would always do . so ,
“ the day covids ends “
, would be the day I will go to his room .
