Killer or Protector
The sun rises up slowly in the sky, breaking the dawn, defeating the darkness and bringing the new day. As Slowly as the rays of the sun illuminate thought the glass of the window right at the table where lots of paper and files is scatter around, with the man’s head down on the table…….who carelessly seem to be in deep sleep, its look like he has been up for all night….doing his work…
The door crack open slowly and enter a middle age man who wear a need and clean uniform and his black hair slightly turned white….he was all build and tall, as he stand on the door he look intimate and the power seems to radiated from him, his grey eyes with winkle in it landed on the man who lay his head on the table sleeping carelessly….he shook his head in disapproval and went to stand in front of his desk.
“Jonathan!” the man lean down and shake his shoulder trying to wake him up but Jonathan seems too tired and restless to wake up…..
The man sighs and tries again but this time he shake him little too hard which make him groan and he raised his head, there is a dark circle under his green eyes which landed on the man standing in front of him….he yawn and stretch his arm, “David you’re here early?”
David shook his head not liking the way his friend spending night in office, ignoring his question he said, “Look Jonathan you need to rest, it’s not healthy….your spending every night like this, it’s not healthy…..and it’s been 18 years and you….” Jonathan caught him off, “you want me to stop looking for my missing daughter….David you know I can’t do that, how you can even think that?”
“I don’t mean that…I’m just saying that you need to rest…your making yourself sick, and think about your wife and your two children…you can’t be so careless” David explain as he sit on the chair in front of the Jonathan’s desk, and continued, “Don’t forget that your daughter’s birthday is coming near, have you thought anything about that?”
Jonathan rubs his face, he seems exhausted and tired…he sighs, “I’m sorry David, I’m just so tired and exhausted that I couldn’t think straight……” then his eyes landed on the scatter paper and files, as his dreadful memory came fresh in his mind, he continued with his distant voice, “How can I forget my daughter’s birthday? And that dreadful night where I lost my other daughter…I could never forget that night….the memory is still fresh in my mind, I’m so hopeless David…that I couldn’t protect my own child” his voice sounds so defeated, and sorrowful…
“No, Jonathan stop blaming yourself, you know it’s not your fault and nobody is blaming you for that…..you did everything to protect your daughter but you can’t blame yourself like that…that night not only you…but the two parents also lost their child….at least you got your other daughter save but they lost their only child” David said with his sad voice and look at the window where the sun light is illuminating…..towards the desk…
“I know David, and I’m doing everything in my power to find them….that night whatever I saw was unbelievable…I’m mean how can a man itself just burn to ashes it’s like they are not even a human I’m still curious and can’t find out anything….” Jonathan shook his head with frustration and started to collect the scatter paper and files….
David sigh, “Jonathan let’s not talk about that again….. Please…I don’t want to discuss that again” he touches his forehead in worries….not in mood to discuss in this topic…which he had been hearing from years.
Jonathan quickly looks up to argue but stop when he saw that his friends look stress over something, his feature soften as he slowly put the collected files and paper aside…..on the table.
“David what is it? You look stress over something?” Jonathan softly asked.
David sits back on the chair as he shook his head, “nothing”
