3.5 Corona days: 9ness

9 multiplied by 10 minutes before 9 pm I had to leave my house to meet a person living in house number 9 divided by 3 on the 9th floor of the 9th block. His house was 9 minutes away from my house by walk. My house is neither on the 9th floor nor in the 9th block. As I walked out of the building I found more than 9 persons walking around the complex. None of the more than 9 persons covered their nose and mouth with a surgical mask. Of the more than 9 persons walking around the complex around 9 of them were children. They played and ran around the complex with 9 buildings happily. The others were in their houses preparing for the 9 minutes of candle burning at 9 pm. I pressed the button with the numeral 9 in the lift. The counter in the lift incremented steadily. When the counter reached 9, the doors opened and I got out of the lift to the 9th floor. I rang the door bell of the house numbered 9 divided by 3. I heard a dog bark 9 times from inside. The door opened and I walked into the apartment. I spent 9 minutes in the apartment talking to this person. I pressed the lift button and the lift doors opened when the lift counter showed 9. I walked into the lift and pressed the 0 button. The counter in the lift decreased from 9 to 0. I got off the lift and walked out of the 9th block. Once again I saw more than 9 persons and 9 children walking around the complex with 9 buildings. Both the lifts of my building were on 9th floor. I pressed the button to get the lift from the 9th floor to the ground floor. When the lift reached from the ground floor from the 9th floor, the doors opened. I got in and pressed the button of my floor. The lift passed the 9th floor on its way up. I reached my home 9 minutes after I left the 9th floor of the 9th block. The 9 minutes at 9 pm was still an hour away. I took out my mobile, opened WhatsApp and typed a status message "When 9 people get together at 9 o clock 9 km from the 9th milestone on NH 9, 9 people end up meeting each other at 9 o clock 9 km from the 9th milestone on NH 9"

Not everything said has an inner meaning. Some of things said have no meaning at all.
