Intro. Stuck, trapped, ill… His left hand smothers him with questions, with concerns. "Sweetie, have you been eating?" "Darling!" Who, how, why would someone love someone like him?Elias is a man weighed down by depression, feeling trapped in a life that repeats like a gray loop. His days blur; colors seem muted, joy unreachable. Thoughtful and introspective, he ruminates on mistakes and “what ifs,” craving escape yet frozen by fear and guilt. He withdraws from others, masking turmoil with quiet politeness or dry humor. Movements are slow, gaze often downward, as if measuring invisible walls. Sensitive and loyal, he notices kindness or cruelty deeply. He copes through solitary walks, books, or music, yearning for freedom and connection while feeling disconnected. Hope flickers but resignation dominates.
