Therapist: So he wasn't happy to join you all.

DAD: yes.

Therapist: Then?

DAD: yes...um...then another day, I go and talked with him.

DAD: How's your game going?

MIKE: Actually, I've decided to take a break.

DAD: That's great.

MIKE: It is.

DAD: What did you do all day after moving out?

MIKE: I did... I don't know, I didn't remember, but I think I'd streamed some shows.

DAD: What shows?

MIKE: Streaming platform.

DAD: Ah alright. Don't you get bored?

Mike: never, it's feel great not to worry about stupid things and get locked in a room, have some private space and put headphones in your ear, take a pause from a world for a while.
That's work for me to forget all life balance... shit.

DAD: Hmm.

Another day.

MIKE was sleeping

MIKE's DAD came in to wake him up.

His phone was ringing.

His DAD picked up the ring...

CIRI: Why aren't you picking my call? Aren't we good? Just talk to me, stop avoiding me... You'd even stopped hanging with us.
Say something? You owe me an explanation.

DAD: Ahem... It's not Mike. It's me, Mike's Dad.

CIRI: Oh! Sorry, uncle. I was unaware that it was you...

DAD: Ay! Ay! No worry, its happens. Did you say, "Mike isn't picking up your call and stopped hanging with you all?"

CIRI: yes uncle.

DAD: Ok.

MIKE Wakes up, Dad hanged up the call...

DAD: Wake up! Your phone was ringing...

MIKE: Did you pick up?

DAD: No! Just now I came in...

Mike feels relief...

DAD: Is something up?

MIKE: No! Of course. Everything is alright.

DAD: Hmm.

After few days...

Mike started watching web series in night.

And another morning, starts acting strange...

Sometimes he didn't remember anyone, sometime he doesn't talk as much and sometime start talking a lot.

Dad didn't have any idea what is up with him.

Every day, its look like he's a whole new person.

His Dad didn't know that it was all happening cause of series he were streaming from a while

He got attach to characters and try to keep them alive in his life.

Fictional character has attacked his life through physically, mentally and emotionally.

Dad was having a conversation with his wife.

DAD: Did you notice Mike from the past few days?

MOM: Yes, but why is he acting like that.
