Lock Up/Down Day 5 Posted on 31/03/2020 by Piet Frans Day five starts. Downstairs has slept well for the first time, and feels pretty good after his saxophone playing last night. He has also implemented some measures to keep his laundry to a minimum.Upstairs is distraught. Her cellphone broke when it hit the ceiling last night. She just fell onto her bed and wept in dispair. Upstairs is systematically working through the five (or seven) stages of loss. She is at stage two – denial.Downstairs is relaxed and is connecting with his friends and family. Upstairs has progressed to the third sage of loss – anger. Fuelled by burning anger, she has tidied the apartment and is now taking a steamy shower. Her mind is dwelling on dark thoughts.Downstairs has cooked himself Chinese noodles and is taking a break from the news. Share this:TwitterFacebook
