Suicide

Arumi has raised her hand and is ready to land a slap on Mesya's face.

But she gave up her intention.

She lowered her hand again.

Mesya snorted in annoyance.

"Why not?" asked Mesya.

"Yes, because we don't want to hurt our daughter," answered Arumi.

"Then why, with David, no?" asked Mesya.

"Because he's a boy, it's only natural that we educate him hard," answered Arumi.

"But I don't want to be considered special, Mom! I want you to beat me like David!"

Hearing this made Arumi angry again, but she didn't want to take her anger out on Mesya.

Again, Arumi suppressed her anger just for the sake of Mesya.

Mesya immediately ran away leaving Arumi.

She followed Charles who was taking David into the secret room.

"Mesya! Wait!" shouted Arumi.

She also ran after Mesya.

While Arthur just stood with her arms folded and chuckled.

"Let's see ... since she's been in this house, the atmosphere has become full of drama! It's boring!" slurred Arthur and then he walked away and left the place.

***

Inside the secret room, which was used to discuss, or even beat their children Arthur and David, Charles had already untied his belt.

"Stop, Daddy! Don't do that!" shouted Mesya.

Arumi was overwhelmed by the pursuit of Mesya and finally, Mesya had already entered the room.

It was the first room she had entered in her life. Mesya has always been very curious about this room, but Arumi has never allowed Mesya.

And now she could finally see firsthand what was inside the room.

It looks scary in Mesya's view, there are lots of sharp objects in this room.

Everything looked disorganized, even some of the butcher knives still had dried blood spots on the sides.

"Oh my God! So all this time, you guys tortured David, in a place like this?" said Mesya who was shocked.

"Hey, my dear wife, why did you even bring our daughter here?" asked Charles.

"I'm sorry, honey, but I failed to stop her, she's all grown up now, and she runs pretty fast!" said Arumi.

Indeed, sometimes, the way Arumi and Charles talk looks strange and different.

They even sometimes think of Mesya as a little girl. Even though Mesya feels like an adult.

"Let go, David!" Mesya shouted as she ran to hug David, not caring if her father was beside her brother and was ready to hit him.

"Mesya, why are you even here?" David asked.

"David! Are you okay!?" asked Mesya.

"I'm fine, and you'd better go," said David.

"No, I won't go, because if I go they will beat you, David!" Mesya said, she tightened her grip on David even more.

"Mesya, let's get out of the way, Honey!" said Charles.

"No!" Mesya still defends David.

"Fine if you don't want to go then I'll use a little violence on you," Charles threatened.

"Why just a little violence, Dad? Why not just kill me right away?!" challenged Mesya.

"Honey! Please hold her!" said Charles who told Arumi to hold the girl, so that Mesya could not disturb her.

"You don't want to go, so you have to be prepared to watch your brother get tortured!" Charles insisted.

Then Charles swung his belt at David.

He hit him with a bang and landed on David's body multiple times.

Mesya really couldn't bear to see it, she even closed her eyes.

'So this is what David has always experienced for years, torture after torture he feels, not only mental torture but also physical torture,' Mesya said in her heart while crying and closing her eyes.

The lashing got louder and louder, and David also had a chance to scream, but there wasn't the slightest bit of resistance from him.

"David! Let's just fight him! He doesn't deserve to be called, Dad!" shouted Mesya who didn't know what to do to stop Charles.

And hearing Mesya's words, Charles stopped his punches for a moment. He glanced at Mesya.

"Why are you even talking rudely to Father?" Charles asked Mesya.

This is a good opportunity, for Mesya, because this way, Charles stops his blow against David and this way David can calm down a bit. The father's punches paused, enough to lessen the pain.

"Daddy, angry at what I said earlier?" asked Mesya.

Charles's breath was a little ragged, but he didn't utter a word from his mouth.

"Why, Dad, shut up? I know you're mad at me?" Mesya's asked with a faint smile.

"Therefore, vent your anger, Daddy, and beat me to death! Don't hesitate!" Mesya's ordered.

But Charles seemed to calm himself, he didn't want to be provoked by Mesya's words.

He turned and grabbed his belt again, then he slapped David with it again.

"Stop it, Dad! I beg you to stop!" shouted Mesya.

But his father didn't care and continued to beat David, instead this time the punch sounded loud.

"Because you dare to go against Daddy, then I will do what Arthur suggested earlier!" said Charles, beating David.

"What? Are you gonna cut off David's hand?" Mesya asked to make sure, and the look on her face was very panicked.

"Of course, because he has gone too far, even because she too, my favorite daughter, dares to fight me!" said Charles.

"Good grief!"

Mesya was at her wit's end, she didn't know how to stop Charles. Of course, she didn't want Charles to cut off David's hand.

With all her strength, Mesya pushed Arumi's body which was currently holding her until she fell, and now Arumi's hand was no longer holding her body.

Then Mesya grabbed a knife, which was still dirty with dried traces of blood on its side.

"Hey, Mesya! What are you going to do!" shouted Arumi.

"Of course, I will end my life!" replied Mesya curtly.

"What?!" Arumi immediately approached Mesya.

"Stop! Please don't come near me!" said Mesya.

"Don't do that, honey! Please don't!" said Arumi.

"Stay away, Mom! If you come any closer then I will immediately slit my throat!" Mesya threatened.

"Mesya! Please stop it, Honey! Fine . . . I not hitting David, again" said Charles.

"Unfortunately it's too late! Because I'm already bored with this life!" said Mesya.

"Mesya! What are you talking about?!" shouted Arumi.

But Mesya didn't hear the words of her mother or anyone anymore, she had stuck the blade to her neck and started to press it slowly. The knife began to stab at her neck, and beads of blood began to appear.

"Mesya!" shouted Arumi loudly.
