      The old man outlived everyone. His friends, his wife, his children… But he wasn't lonely. An old fridge buzzed hoarsely in the corridor and - replaced him friends and family.

      The old man didn’t remember, when he last left the house. There was no need for it. A neighbor boy brought him groceries every day, and nothing else was needed.

      The old man stuck to the principle: “Live each day as if it was your last”. Every evening he lay down to die. Waking up the next morning he shambled to the fridge.
