If I am to write an adaptation of the story, I would write about a computer game addict. Nowadays, there are people who immerse themselves in the virtual world as an escape to the real one. The main character would be a high-school student, who is deemed and worshipped as a god because of his strength. However, in reality, he is always scolded by his mother for skipping school. The virtual world was his paradise because he had a lot of friends there while he has none in school.
Like any ordinary school-skipping day, he sat down in front of his computer and started to take off from reality and rule in his virtual world. An earthquake shook the ground - affecting many people and destroyed most of the infrastructure in town. And because of this, classes were suspended. Instead of feeling bad, he was happy to be able to play his game more without being reprimanded by his mother. While most people are busy in
rehabilitating their town, there he was playing god in his own world.
Eventually, he noticed that he got tired of playing the computer game. It was not as satisfying as before. He was puzzled why he suddenly got sick of the game when all he ever wanted was to play the game. He then decided to disconnect from his virtual world and started living in the real one by helping the people.
I would end the story with a happy ending because most people prefer happy endings rather than tragedy. I thought of using a computer game because it distracts users to their work, studies, or social life as much as books are considered as distraction during the time "Time Enough at last" was made.
