A Plea

"Bryan!" called a policeman while opening the cell where Bryan had been held for the past 2 weeks.
"Yes?" Bryan asked in a weak voice.
"From today you are free."
"What? Why is that?" Bryan asked in disbelief.
"Jack Carter withdraws his charges. You can go home."
"What was the reason he did that? Do you know why?"
"I don't know about that problem, but what is clear is that 2 hours ago he came and withdrew his demands against you. Go home, Bryan, poor little brother. He must have been waiting for you at home."
"Thank you very much," Bryan replied. His eyes filled with tears. There was a feeling of emotion mixed with happiness in his heart.
"Wait Bryan."
"Yes?"
"Take good care of yourself and don't disappoint your father again."
"Okay sir."
Bryan ran, who knows what he was chasing. I know he wants to come to me and say, "Anka, I'm free, I can look after you now."
Bryan immediately barged into the house, which always looked quiet. He looked around the house for me and hoped to find me soon.
"Anka... Anka, where are you?" he shouted calling my name.
"Young Master? Are you free? Oh... thank God, we were all very worried. Since that day, Master never came home."
"Daddy isn't coming home?"
"Yes."
"Anka, where is Anka, Miss?"
"Miss Anka has been in her room since this morning and she doesn't want to come out. She hasn't eaten all day. Auntie has persuaded her but she said she doesn't want to eat anything. Auntie is worried."
"What happened?"
"Miss Anka didn't come home last night. Auntie doesn't know where Miss went. Aunty kept calling her but she didn't pick up. This morning Miss suddenly came home, her clothes were dirty and her face was very pale. Auntie took her to the doctor but she didn't want to and said she wanted to Just rest in your room."
"Oh no, Anka...!" Bryan shouted and immediately ran to meet Anka in his room.
"Anka, it's me Bryan. Open the door?" Bryan shouted. But there was no answer.
"Anka, open the door. Do you hear me?" he asked, Bryan became increasingly worried and immediately broke down my bedroom door.
Bryan couldn't believe what he was seeing. I'm already unconscious. Yes... I tried to end my own life by taking an overdose of sleeping pills.

"Auntie... call an ambulance...!" Bryan shouted panicked. Right now I can still hear his warm voice even though it sounds faint.

"M...mom... don't go mom, don't leave me...!" I said grimacing in my dream. My tears flowed non-stop.
"Anka, are you awake?" Bryan asked.
"Where... where is this?" I asked in a weak voice, while trying to open my eyes slowly.
"It's at the hospital," he answered. I immediately lifted my very heavy head.
"Okay, just lie down. Don't force yourself."
"What happened? Why am I here?"
"The doctor said you took so much sleeping medication that you almost overdosed. Why did you do something stupid like that?"
"I don't remember."
"Where did you go that night, Anka?"
"My... go? My... I'm not going anywhere."
"Liar! Where are you going?"
"I'm not lying, that night I stayed at Clara's house because I was lonely. Believe me..."
"Well, I hope you're not hiding anything from me."
I fell silent. I didn't dare answer. I'm afraid I've disappointed him.

Today Bryan went back to school. Everyone looked at him without saying anything or just greeting him. Everyone is afraid of being involved in the problem he is experiencing. However, Bryan didn't seem to care. Bryan walked through the school corridor while carrying his backpack. From behind, someone called in a challenging tone.
"Hey... loser? Are you too brave to come back here?" said Jack who was standing behind Bryan.
"What?" Bryan asked as he turned around.
"Amazing... you are very brave. You are already a prisoner but you still dare to step casually into this place of honor. I think you are the new loser at this school? Isn't that right?" said Jack accompanied by several of his friends.
Everyone in the place was watching them. Just in case another fight breaks out. Bryan started walking and said he didn't care what Jack said.
"Why are you leaving? Are you afraid? Now you're the one hiding under your sister's armpit. It's really embarrassing. Someone like you deserves to be gnawed to death by worms," ​​said Jack with defiant eyes. Bryan stopped his footsteps and turned around again, he stared at Jack closely with hatred.
"Why are you looking at me? Are you challenging? If you want to hit me again, come on, go ahead. I'm not afraid. You should be grateful to your stupid little brother. He was willing to sacrifice his body to free you from prison," said Jack. Bryan was silent in disbelief. He immediately stepped closer to Jack and grabbed his neck.
"What? What did you do to Anka...? What did you do to her...?" Bryan shouted angrily.

"Bryan stop... don't do that!" shouted Clara.
"Come on, go ahead, beat me until you're satisfied. Because now I'm satisfied with taking something valuable for you and your sister."
"Damn you... what are you doing...? What...? Or I'll kill you right now..." shouted Bryan, getting more and more emotional.
"Bryan stop...!" I shouted, having just arrived and seen this incident. Bryan looked at me for a moment.
"Hahaha... why are you silent? You don't dare hit me, do you? You're such a loser."
"Shut up ...!" Bryan shouted angrily.
"Bryan, please don't continue. I don't want you to get hurt again. Please...!" I asked, my tears flowing. I'm really afraid of that happening again.
Bryan released his grip. With lightning speed, Jack hit him very hard.
"Bryan...!" I shouted as I ran over to him.
"This is payback for that time, loser!" said Jack as he walked away.
