Second Road

Second Road
Episode 30: Failed already



Why do you think humans interact? Sometimes people love each other, sometimes they hurt each other. Sometimes mutual trust and lies also never escape from it.


The puzzle of human existence and what they do is a mystery. Yeah, I'm human too, and there's a lot I want to know.


As the age continues to grow, humans also never feel enough. Maybe it has become an instinct no matter how modern they are.


And maybe, this instinct that feels never enough is also what makes the world change continuously. People want more, more and more. There's not enough words.


And I guess I might as well. There were so many things I wanted and it kept hanging around in my head. I want to change, I want to live free.


My eyes opened slowly. I woke up again from an uncomfortable sleep. My sleep was not good, I kept waking up every few moments.


Both of my eyes glanced at the open window, the golden orange sky looking glistening beautifully there. I can conclude that it's afternoon now, probably around six o'clock.


I tried to sit down, but still a little weak. I've been tired of sleeping all day, and if I still force myself to sleep, then I'll be up all night.


And there seems to be good news, my body is not too sick, everything is better now. I started to believe that sleep could change everything. Ah, silly ideology.


My clothes feel a little damp because of the sweat that continues to pour while I sleep. Maybe I should take a shower, the long sleep made me feel healthy again.


Then I got out of bed and prepared to grab a towel. Oh, and maybe after that I'll eat something. I'll eat the pudding later, too.


Bruk!!


I was just standing on the floor, but my balance was gone. Immediately I fell hugging the cold and hard floor. It's the worst hug I've ever had, hugging the floor is not a good idea, my knee hurts.


"Eh...What happened? You okay okay?"


Coincidentally Allen passed by, he instantly helped me to stand up. My legs are shaking, I don't seem to have fully recovered. It's all because it was a really shitty afternoon.


"Why did it fall? Is anyone sick?" Ask Allen.


I shook my head slowly. No one was sick, it was just that I had trouble standing.


"Have grandfather finished? What did I take the right medicine?" I asked the guy.


"Yes, grandpa's done and he left an hour ago, and you drank it..."


"Where? So, what did I drink this afternoon?"


I panicked a little, looking at Allen's facial expression, it didn't seem like the right medicine. Don't don't it be the first? Or maybe a biosolar? Or maybe an anti-mosquito spray?


"To his friend's place, discussing the drugs you're taking. Something's not right with that. And what you're drinking, you better not know."


"Why? Just let me know. I beg..." I'm welding.


"You can throw up again if you hear it, I'm sick of cleaning it, so you better not."


"I promise I won't throw up again, tell me."


I put on a hardened face, hoping that he would tell me. What the hell was I drinking until she thought I was gonna puke hearing it. Her green eyeballs looked at me doubtfully, but I was sure that she would say it.


"You're really not gonna throw up, are you?"


"Yes." Yeah."


"You promise?"


"Yes, I promise."


"OK, listen. Grandfather said, there are some materials that can be identified and there are other materials. It's the wrong drug, I don't know who switched it. So what was successfully verified was spiritus, rat poison, and pertamax type fuel. There are a few more ingredients that haven't been verified, so don't throw up." Clearly Allen.


My eyes immediately heard it. The spiritus? Rat poison? and pertamax? Already I guess, there is indeed a pertamax in it, from looking at it I have immediately thought like that. But, what was really unexpected was the rat poison.


My head immediately imagined about that thing, and the biggest problem was rat poison, fortunately I was not dead because of it. Oh, what about the other ingredients that haven't been identified? I hope immediately worried.


Imagining it back made me a little nauseous. Just nauseous, I don't puke anymore. Maybe because my stomach was empty, there was nothing else my stomach could take out.


"Then why did it fall?" Said Allen. He managed to break my daydream.


"I can't stand up, my legs are shaking and I just fall down." My answer.


"Eh? Try to stand up again, I'll hold it." Tell her.


"It seems fine." Mumbles.


"I'm gonna take a shower." I said as I walked up to the towel that was hung behind the door.


"Don't you, your body was hot this afternoon. Tomorrow only. What if it hurts again?" Prevent Allen.


"No way, sultry. If I get sick again, you'll take care of me. What is the function of a sister if not to be used?" Say prank.


"Oh, so yeah. You want to play harness and be used? Then..." Allen approached me who was already at the door.


Engraved a wicked smile on his face. I gulped, what was he going to do? And I don't seem to have to think about it, and I shouldn't have.


One of his hands locked my movements, while the other hand tickled me. I until it was made, I can't stand the ticklish.


"Ah.haha.I'm sorry, I was just kidding. Untie..."


I tried to rebel, but the difference in body size and power was different. I lost from the beginning.


"No..." Her speech.


"I'm gonna throw up, let's let go..."


" If you want to vomit, do it. I'll clean it up again, easy."


"I-I give up.., sorry.I'm sorry, brother forgive me..."


"Pronounce once more, let's say."


"Sister, I'm sorry..."


He finally let me go. My breath was a little bit cut off because of it. If my body could be a little bigger, I might be able to fight back.


Why is this happening to me? Why doesn't God let me get the right medicine? Why should I drink the wrong thing? Wh why?


It felt like I wanted to scream from above so that my voice would reflect the calamity I was saying. I wish I complained there, bringing out everything that stuck in my heart and mind.


"Will I take a shower?" Ask Allen.


"Yes." Yeah." Answer's short.


"Do you want to help me?" Bargainly.


"No need, I can do it myself."


I spent ten minutes in the bathroom. This was probably my best shower ever. When I finished rinsing off the body, I felt as if I was reborn.


It felt as if all my sins were being washed away by the warm stream of bath water. After getting dressed, the next thing that occurred to me was a stomach problem. I want to eat something.


I should have said "Kitchen. I'm cooming..." But I was too embarrassed to do it. I'd look stupid, wouldn't I? All this time, I was always trying to keep my attitude.


"Eh, is grandpa back?" I said as soon as I got to the kitchen.


Grandpa sat on one of the dining table chairs in the kitchen.


"Haru, come. Already better? Is there anything that still hurts?" Ask grandpa at once.


His hand immediately touched my head, as he usually did. I nodded, although there was still a bit of pain in my legs and a bit of discomfort in the stomach, but this was already in the good category.


"Then, how's the cake? I mean the drugs I'm taking. Allen told me that." My speech.


"The medicine.someone changed it. Then steal the real one. Sorry Haru, you got poisoned for it. We've lost our chance to make you grow." Sesal grandpa.


I also really regret it. I have long wanted to grow tall and mature. I don't really like myself right now either. Small, pale, and somewhat skinny. I want to be higher, I'm not satisfied with who I am now.


"It's okay. I'm fine." Reply slowly.


Huh.pada I had hoped for a lot. But what can I do, right? Not everything can go well. There's a lot of things I can't get instantly.


"Then do you know who did it?" Ask Allen.


Right, guess who did it?
