The Game Of Death

Panick

After Ernest said he was okay. The police officers responded and chose to return to their offices. Meanwhile, Ernest was finally alone there. The wounds were not that bad and the police would have paid for the medical expenses.

Ernest chose to rest for a while. That morning, he was supposed to be back at work. However, circumstances are not possible. He was also still half dizzy and conscious. Suddenly, when Ernest was about to rest. There's a ringing sound indicating an incoming call. Ah, he had forgotten that he had a phone that was still well stored in his pants pocket.

Ernest immediately picked up the phone call that turned out to be from Hellen. He forgot not to tell Hellen about his condition right now. Maybe Hellen was gonna ask her why he didn't come to work today.

"Hello?" Ernest lifted her phone.

"Hello, where are you now? Why you do not go to work? Are you sick?" ask Hellen.

"Sorry Hellen, I think I'm on leave for today. Yes, I'm sick," Ernest replied.

"What you pain? Don't tell me you fought with your father again! He hurt you again?" asked Hellen anxiously.

Ernest didn't answer. However, there was a long sigh that led Hellen to understand immediately if his conjecture was true. That his father hurt Ernest again. Strangely enough, Ernest survived with such a madman. If Hellen had become him, it would have been obvious he would have left him.

"I understand. Where are you now? Let me go there!" asked Hellen forcibly.

"I'm in the hospital now. But there's no need to come. I'm going to take a break today. After that, I'll go home," Ernest said, trying to convince Hellen if he was okay.

"Are you sure Ernest? Let me go there. No problem, I just want to see you. You just rest," Hellen said insisting.

"Okay, okay. I'll send you the location. But don't tell anyone I'm fighting with my father again," Ernest replied.

"All right, I won't tell anyone. I'll wait for ya!" said Hellen who eventually closed the call unilaterally.

Meanwhile, Ernest immediately rushed to deliver his latest location to Hellen. After that, he kept his phone. He wants to rest because her head is so dizzy. After a little better, he'll decide to just go home.

- The Game Of Death -

Lewis woke up from his bad sleep. Lewis slept all night on the living room floor. In the room that last night fought her and Ernest.

Lewis is staring around. He was confused because the atmosphere was so messy and there were bloodstains. Lewis panicked, especially since he not finding Ernest since he first woke up.

"Ernest?! Son, where are you, son?" Lewis looking for Ernest.

Lewis is looking for his son. However, he found nothing but broken glass and bloodstains everywhere. Lewis tried to recall what he did last night.

Lewis tried to remember what he did last night. And he immediately turned his eyes when he remembered that he had made a terrible mistake with Ernest. He hit her and said things he shouldn't have said to Ernest. He said that if he gambled, it would certainly make Ernest even more disappointed in him.

"My God, I'm making a new problem again. I have to look for Ernest. I'm not sure he's okay with this bloodstain everywhere!" said Lewis, and he immediately ran looking for Ernest even though he didn't know where to look.

Lewis searched the entire compound. Until he met his neighbor who had just come out of the house. He was asked by his neighbor because Lewis' face looked so frantic.

"Mr. Lewis. What are you looking for? Why is your face so afraid?" asked her neighbor.

"I'm looking for Ernest. Have you seen him?" Lewis asked anxiously.

"How do I know, I just left home. That's why, sir, if you have a child, don't keep being tortured. What's less about Ernest with the father? He worked hard until night, his father just wasted money by gambling. Aren't you ashamed, sir?" said his neighbor who was annoyed by Lewis's actions.

"Take care of your mouth! I don't need your lecture! If you don't know, just answer no! If you're reading yourself first, are you good at being a parent?" Lewis replied.

Lewis soon left his neighbor. He was upset that humans were busy finding out about his life. They have problems in their own lives. When Lewis was tired of looking for Ernest, there was a call from someone he didn't know at all. Lewis tries to pick up the phone, hoping there's good news about Ernest from someone he doesn't know.

"Hello? Who is this with?" said Lewis picking up the phone.

"Hello, sir. I'm Hellen, I'm Ernest's friend. Is this true with Ernest's father?" a girl from across the phone asked.

"Yes, it's me. Are you with him? I'm losing him," Lewis replied anxiously and panicked.

"Yes, that's right. I'm with him, sir. Ernest is in the hospital now. But it's okay, we'll be home soon after this. Don't worry, Ernest is okay now," said Hellen, calming Lewis who was panicking.

"Ah, thank God if he's okay. I'll wait for him at home then. Thank you for helping Ernest. Tell him, I'm sorry for what I did last night. He must be very hurt," Lewis said regretfully.

"Yes, sir, then I'll close it. I just want to tell you that. Thank you," said Hellen and then closed the call unilaterally.

Call's over. Lewis kept staring at his phone while giving thanks many times. He regretted not being a good father to his son. Lewis hopes his mistakes can still be forgiven by Ernest. Without Ernest, Lewis wouldn't have known what his life would have been like.

He'll be home soon. He would make a good meal for Ernest's return home. Lewis will turn out to be a good father after this. Let's hope that happens. And see what he will do after this.
