Chapter 23. Contrition

**I've felt how empty it is to have no purpose in life, while death is reluctant to pick me up.

Happy Reading 🌹🌹🌹**

The night breeze that felt gripping on his body, he did not care. He sat down and wrapped his hands together on bent knees. His gaze was empty, occasionally he wiped his tears.

Even he didn't care for the few who looked at him in wonder, usually he was always cold untouchable, but tonight he was like a man in a breakup.

"Dad, Mother". She cried out, "I'm sorry Roger". Yes that man is a man. The sudden death of the mother made the man rebel and ask permission to go home even if only briefly. But the police force there won't allow it if no one picks him up straight away.

The regret that is very much Roger felt, he had never been happy both parents and now even left when he was in big trouble.

Roger regretted wasting the opportunity to make both parents happy. He was evil and opposed to his father and he often hit his father in the face. How guilty Roger was to do such a cruel thing to a man who was none other than his own biological father.

Roger cried in silence, his face was buried in his knees, so that his cries could not be heard.

"Baby, Mey. Sorry Brother". He remembered the two girls who were now living an abandoned life with no one. Two young girls must swallow the bitter pill of life without parents.

The same men in the bars looked at each other, and they shrugged their shoulders not knowing what made the handsome man look fragile.

One of them approached, and patted the shoulder of the loss "I don't know what your problem is, but if it takes a friend to confide we're ready to listen to you". Said the man patting Roger on the shoulder.

Roger raised his gaze and simply shook his head that he was okay.

"No need to talk to friends. We are the ones who have been guilty in the past, and we have been punished accordingly, at least we can still turn into good people after coming out of this". The man's smile was toward Roger

Roger stared ahead, the other three men sitting next to Roger and ready to listen to the story of the handsome man.

"Father and Mother died only a few weeks apart. I. I'm worried about my two sisters, I'm afraid they're okay because there's no one to look after". Obviously Roger.

They are silent, Roger's problems are enough to make them sympathetic, however as a big brother there will be a sense of worry when his sister is beyond his expectations let alone women.

Ara and Mey were having dinner just the two of them, both of them eating in silence just the clink of a spoon that sounded like each other.

Mey looked down at the tears that had fallen on her plate. His hand stirred the spoon without any intention of putting the spoonful of food into his mouth.

"Mey". Ara clasped her sister's hand "We must be strong". Tandas Ara's.

But Mey just fell silent not responding to the words of her Brother, Mey was disappointed everything was caused by Ara. If only they were more concerned with Ferarer's health than Ara's, his father would not have left them. If only Wati had no intention of making Ara's favorite food and shopping at the market, surely their mother is still here.

"It's all Brother's fault". Mey got up and pointed at Ara's face in anger.

"Oh, you don't have to pretend you don't know. All this was caused by Brother, Father died because Brother and Mother died because of Brother and now Brother Roger is imprisoned also because of Brother. Our lives have been difficult, brother, at least eliminate all the misfortune in Brother". In the wake of. Saying the word, Mey went to her room and slammed the door of her room violently.

While Ara was in her place, her brain immediately digested all of Mey's words. The words of a sister who was expressing all the emotions in her chest.

"Is this all because of me?". Lirih Ara with teary eyes, she stared at the simple food on the table that was only eaten a little and much of the rest.

"Hiks, hyx, hyx". Ara covered her face with both hands. His heart aches and pains, why do the problems in his life never end?

Ara pounded her chest repeatedly so that her chest would immediately go away, but in fact her crying became more and more and her whole body seemed to be squeezing.

Amid the sadness of losing the Father and the Mother, she is confronted by the anger of her sister who says everything happened because of Ara.

"Lord, I'm tired". Ara walked towards her room and entered and closed the door slowly.

Ara laid her body on her thin mattress. Ara stared at the family photo that she kept on the nightstand, a complete family photo where there were still both her parents and also her brother who was very pampering Ara at that time.

Ara is the second child and favorite of both parents, in addition to this girl has different health Ara is also obedient and smart in everything, besides that she is kind and polite to both parents. It was precisely that made Roger beard and eventually rebelled, and Mey also just took out all the undeniable grunts that he was jealous of what Ara had. Loved by family, and even accepted to work in a large company without strict selection. Both of her parents died of Ara.

"Dad, Mother". Ara stroked the glass of the photo. A few years ago, before everything turned cold.

"Is it all Ara's fault?". Ara continued to monologue with the inanimate object, occasionally Ara hugged the photo tightly and cried as unwillingly as she let out all these unrelenting cries.

Ara's heart throbbed as Mey said that everything was her fault. His father died because of Ara, his brother went to prison because Ara and his mother died also because of Ara. Those words were still ringing in Ara's mind.

"Hyx hyx hyx hyx hyx hyx". Ara's cry sounded groaning and heart-wrenching. The girl sat down and leaned against the wall of her bed, even until her eyes swelled up.

Ara held her stomach while crying, because too much pull the former surgery back sick especially from yesterday Ara did not take the medicine. Too focused on the sense of emptiness Ara no longer thought about her health. Ara ignored her too much, for Ara now life or death just as she would feel empty.

Now her sister Mey, the only person Ara has, hates Ara and says all her faults. This was the path of his life's destiny, he also did not want to feel something like this. But how else fate really likes to joke and play with him.

Ara stared at the ceiling of her room, drowning in the girl to end her life. But that won't solve the problem. Wouldn't it be that if he killed himself it would only add to the burden? What if he goes to hell? Tortured forever there. Heaven will not accept the man who ended his life before the Creator took it.

Warm regards.
