The bright red and blue lights flashed in front of my eyes. My father was beside me in anger and I was sobbing. He couldn't leave me!

*A Few Hours Before* 

My brother Cryptor left the house at three p.m. like usual. We have always thought it was because he has a job that pays him a good amount because whenever he came back he had large amounts of money in his hands. 

But, today we found out something that was going to change our lives forever. 

"P.I.X.A.L, can you call Cryptor for me?" My father asked. 

I nodded and took my purple Borg phone and called my brother, Cryptor. 

"I told you not to call me when I am at work!" Cryptor yelled. 

"I know, but Father needed to talk to you," I said. 

"What does he want?" Cryptor asked. 

I passed the phone to Father and they had a long talk. I just heard some part of the conversation about how Father needed some help with some stuff, but Cryptor refused. 

"Here, dear," my Father said, handing me the phone. 

"Is there something you need help with?" I asked. 

"Oh, no, not at all," Father said. 

*A Few Hours Later*

Cryptor came back home, but he was tense. 

"What happened?" I asked. 

"Nothing," Cryptor said. 

"I know something has happened, you can tell me," I said, placing a hand on his shoulder. 

"Look P.I.X.A.L, promise me you won't get mad," he said, placing both of his hands on my shoulder.

"I promise," I said, confused, but a little scared. 

"I have done something bad. I thought that I could help by earning a few hundred bucks, but then I realized that everything was getting worse and out of control. Now I think I might get arrested, but look, don't worry. Everything will be fine. Wait not it won't, it will. Just, ugh," Cryptor said. 

"What did you do?" I asked worriedly. 

"I did something bad, let's just say it's equivalent to selling drugs," Cryptor said. 

I gasped. 

"You did what?!" I heard a voice behind me yell. 

It was Father. 

"I'm sorry Father, I knew I should've never done that. But I just wanted to help us.." Cryptor was cut off by our father.

"No! I don't care if you wanted to help us or what! Why in the world would you do such a thing?! I spent years trying to build a reputation and when I gain it, somebody has to be in the way! I'm calling the police, you are no longer my son!" Father yelled. 

The last words echoed in my ears. How could Father say such a thing? 

"But.." Cryptor tried to fight back, but "No! Get out of my house!" Father yelled. 

I could see Cryptor's eyes watering. I didn't want to lose my brother. I hugged him tight and we cried in each other’s arms. 

"Don't worry brother, you are still family to me," I cried. 

"Thank you, P.I.X.A.L," Cryptor said, letting go of the hug and surrendering. 

*A Few Minutes Later*

The police arrived and put Cryptor in handcuffs. I hugged him one last time. 

The bright red and blue lights flashed in front of my eyes. My father was beside me in anger and I was sobbing. He couldn't leave me!

The police car left after telling my father about the visit times, but Father didn't seem interested so I took that information for my use. 

I will meet him tomorrow and I will bring him lunch.
