Mr.pill gets bored easily, even though boredom couldn’t really kill him, but emptiness & dullness of mind really made him suffer.

3.

His cousin’s house seems normal at a first glance, or should we say it’s basic and lacks the excitement Mr.Pill had been expecting, it is a disillusion of those so-called high profile life one would normally associate with the upscale city.

4.

“Well, at least the building material seems to have an interesting luster, wait, are they made out of 4” aluminum sip panels?” Mr.pill thought in mind

There are two doors on the front facade, one with the word “you shall not pass here” the other says “welcome, this way in”.

5.

Having thought over it for a while, Mr.pill really couldn’t resist the temptation of opening the “wrong” door

Mr.pill, even though running away, had to admit there is some sort of thrill deep in his mind at the moment of collapsing, for that very moment, time is frozen, he glimpses a beam of light from a different realm of existence, which somehow linked him spiritually with those master architects like Gehry, Libeskind & Zaha Hadid.

8.

Two of them standing in front of the ruin, his cousin explained: “You know, I worried about you recently. Boredom does kill people. I thought the best cure for that is some sort of a surprise in life.Don’t worry about my house. They are made out of a light metal sip panel only. I even couldn’t believe how much span it can have with the 5” thickness, I only put durable furniture up there and more delicate ones are located downstairs in the basement.Do you know how to operate a forklift? Wanna help me put it back together? I assure you this is gonna be fun”

Appeared from the bottom of the “ruin” is his cousin,with a smile on his face.

9.

Thrilled with the idea, Mr.Pill lived with his cousin for another month, during which he constantly tried to deconstruct and reconstruct the house again and again. The results always go a little beyond Mr.Pill’s expectations. He got entertained.

10.

Mr.pill left his cousin’s house two more weeks later. He became bored with it eventually. Things could appear to be interesting at the beginning, but once one fully comprehends/experience the system, it just becomes routinely dull and tasteless again.

11.

“Maybe, after all, life is a struggle to overcome one’s boredom.”

Mr.pill thought on his way back home.
