Ball World


He is waving at the green bus, as it is leaving behind dense dark gray smoke. He is wearing his top hat, as usual. Tears start dripping on his face and fall off on the ground. He grabs his suitcase and leaves the bus station, as he starts heading home.
It is a bright, sunny day, in contrast with his feelings. He looks down as he walks, and then looks up for a few seconds, then keeps looking back down. It's autumn so the road is full of puddles. He stops at one at looks at himself. A sad and lonely ball of misery. His one daughter now moved to live a better life. Last night ended with an argument, and he overslept. She didn't even bother to wake him up, so last time he saw her they were angry at each other...
His wife died in a terrible car accident, and his parents long time ago. He was a single child, and doesn't talk to anybody, so now he is completely alone...
He reaches his house. He grabs the keys and opens the door. He enters and... nothing. Nobody greeted him and he had no one to greet. Another tear falls down to his chin.
It's Sunday and he has nothing to do, so he decides to take a bath.
He finishes his bath, makes himself some popcorn and heads to the bedroom. It is already night in Ball World. He opens the TV and sinks into his bed. In the movie the main character ends up all alone, in his misery, because his daughter commited suicide. He starts desperately crying. Finally, he decides to close the television and sleep...
