Through a remarkable series of readers’ stories, blogger Mayank Austen Soofi is capturing the scenes unfolding in Delhi during the devastating second wave of Covid-19.

Writing to you during these difficult times makes me think, ’was this how Anne Frank felt, when she wrote to you?’Uncertainty, hopelessness, fear, suffering, constant struggle to save humanity. I feel it all. I see it all in others as well.

Just yesterday, I heard my mother talking to papa about sending me to our village, to live with our family, until the situation in Delhi becomes better, while they would both stay in Delhi and continue living as they are now. They have been worried about my health and safety since a few days now, their worry only increasing everyday with the worsening situation in the capital.

Mumma told me yesterday that I should focus on keeping my self healthy and safety and that she or papa don’t care if I get less marks this semester, or don’t get admission into some prestigious institute or if this leads to my career not accelerating as fast as we would want it to.While I do appreciate them telling me this, I feel awkward hearing it, and guilty for even thinking about it.

Here, look at this picture, of me standing in middle of this beautiful spring bloom at my university, just two days before lockdown last year, feeling that sweet breeze and sunlight, flowers swaying and happy.This was first published on the Facebook page of blogger
