Parking situation during rains

So I know bikes/cars are made to withstand weather. But I am still a bit worried keeping my bike outside in the open where it is raining day and night (mumbai).

What is your parking situation? Realistically, how much rusting risk am I putting my bike under?

My anxiety about this is really high, to the point I am actually planning to get the bike inside my flat on 14th floor! I literally checked, it will fit inside the lift super easy.

i have cold and cough since Saturday and because it was manageable i was working as usual. On Sunday they tell me that we are going to have 2 poojas, one on tuesday for which we need to go to a temple and other on Wednesday which will be at home. I told my parents clearly that I wasnt calling in sick and working and now they want me to take a leave at the last moment for a pooja. After a few minutes of back and forth I agreed and called in sick on Tuesday... Not to rest, but to drive my family 30kms away to a temple for a pooja that was apparently for "my wellness"... During the whole 5 hours I kept coughing, sneezing due to the smoke but okay, cool... Family right what can you do...

Now today, i.e. Wednesday I woke up with a fever of 100... Body ache... and cough and cold has worsened... I asked them where the steam inhaler was but instead of helping me they asked me to get some stuff for the pooja that was due today... Never bothered to ask once why i needed the steam inhaler... Cool, i go down get the stuff... Come home and now I am asked to take a shower to participate in the pooja... I politely tell my father, "bhai thank you for asking but i have fever and dont wish to participate in the pooja... yesterday i kept coughing today i would prefer taking rest"... obviously I said it in a sarcastic tone and then the emotional shit starts again... Cool, i take a shower and wear a kurta... by which it was 10AM, havent had anything... No medicine... No inhaler... just me being a "MAN" these people want me to be...

Then my beloved mother comes to my room, and i honestly was expecting her to atleast ask if i was okay... i guess that was too much, she just came in to check if i had showered, to which i just nodded... I mean what is this hypocrisy?!? You are planning this pooja for the welfare of the family but in reality you are not giving single shit about how your own son is?!?

I don't get sick very often, it is not a usual occurrence and i know its just cold and nothing serious... But they made tea for the pandit and for themselves and didn't even bother to ask me... WTF... I legit got pissed, ordered cough syrup, steam inhaler and vicks online... Went out the living room to get it and then started making tea for myself... all the while pooja was being done in the living room...

I dont want help and i for sure dont want validity from random strangers... But is this what it is about? Keeping a facade of being a HINDU all the while neglecting basic things.

My mother just came into my room again and I was lying down... Its 2PM... I still have not consumed anything... I still have a fever of 99.5... and she came in, kept some diyas around the room, told me to tidy up the room and left.

What am i missing here?
