The Fight For Everyone
Duka

"What's wrong? What happened to her?" Hiro asked a little panicked

Charlie explained everything that happened to Zen.

After a little while of listening to him, Hiro knelt down limp and let out tears little by little, he had no idea about the departure of his friend whom he had first met.

"A...what just happened to him?" Ask Hiro

"He was breathing too much smoke, and there was also a lot of fire around him, so the fire department and doctors were late to save him, sorry Hiro" Charlie said

The unbelieving Hiro began to lament over this useless self, and began to clasp his hand and make an oath in his heart.

"(Sister... I'll make you regret it, no matter what you did to me in the past!)"

"Has he buried?" Ask hiro

"Yes, come later this afternoon Hiro, I will give you the address, and you will go visit him alone" said Aartox.

In the afternoon, Hiro came to the place given by Aartox and Charlie, he was still trying to hold back his grief and walked over to eat Zen.

Hiro finds Zen's grave just in the grave yesterday afternoon, he sows flowers and prays.

"Sorry, Zen, I have failed to be a good friend to you, I have led you to perdition, forgive me, sorry" said Hiro who regretted crying

Hiro was not aware that there was a little girl in 4th grade Elementary who was in Zen's grave as well, Hiro asked

"D-deck? W-what are you doing d-here?" Ask Hiro

"I'm visiting my sister!" Said the sister with a smile

Hiro so remembered that Zen once told me he had a sister named shopia, Hiro was also confused why with Shopia who did not cry with Zen's departure

"Hi Shopia, don't you feel like you've lost your brother? He's an important man!" Hiro's

"So, my brother said, crying is a weakling, so I don't cry" Shopia said

Hiro approached Shopia and held her shoulder

"Sir, this is an important moment, you must mourn the camp"

Hiro had not had time to finish his words, he realized that what he saw at this moment was a fake smile or a mask belonging to Shopia.

Wrinkling eyes, and forced smiles, Hiro was aware of that, if Shopia tried hard.

"Sister... My brother's departure is perfectly natural, humans are supposed to leave this world, so you don't cry anymore!" Shopia wiped Hiro's tears

Hiro saw that finally Shopia was shedding her tears as well with a smile. At that moment, Hiro immediately hugged Shopia and said

"I'm sorry Brother, you've been wrong to take your brother to the brink of death, forgive Brother, forgive Brother"

"Sister... Please take me home, will you?" Shopia

Shopia, who is still trying to look tough, now walks with Hiro towards his home, Hiro who is amazed to see the strong heart of Shopia, he is devastated and will not cry anymore.

Shopia was in a terrible mess, a storm appeared in his brain and heart. He chose to let go of her cries, or to hold her back.

They lingered for a long time on the road, and saw a small Zen house made of wood.

Shopia goes into her house, Hiro catches up with her. Inside, Hiro sees her condition that seems to be unfit for habitation anymore, however, he does not see Shopia's parents at all.

"Hey, is that your old man?" Ask Hiro

"Ga there, I'm the same brother living alone in the old house, this. Our parents left us here" Shopia said

"Can you tell me?" Ask the curious Hiro

"My brother said, in the past, my father was a drunk and gambling man and played women, so it made us unable to get rich and eat too hard. One day, our father saw my father kill the mother who was trying to protect her last money for me and my brother, the corpse of the mother was dumped into the cornfield there. I'm going somewhere, leaving us both to survive."

Hiro is shocked to hear the statement of Shopia, who all this time he thought that Zen was a happy family, his assumption was wrong, he was a person who was always tough and smiling, he said, he never complained about his life and his life.

"After this, who do you want to live with?" Ask Hiro

"I don't know who else, sister, I don't know who to run to" said Shopia

Hiro who was shocked to hear that immediately took the initiative to take his sister to the orphanage so that she could be cared for there.

Hiro helps Shopia find the letter she needs, as well as creating a certificate.

The two of them left the old house and walked towards the orphanage.

When he arrives, Hiro registers Shopia and tells her everything.

"Ahhhhh.... Shopia yeah, here's a cute kid, playing with me" said one of the nannies

Shopia was happy there and Hiro was also relieved at the time, but the feeling of sadness was no longer gone.

Hiro walked away to go home, as he turned around, he saw Shopia waving her hand.

As Hiro replied to the wave, he saw the shadowy figure of Zen behind Shopia, the Zen branch giving a thumbs up to Hiro and smiling.

Hiro who saw that, shed a little tear and returned the thumbs up.

Hiro walks home with grief in his hands, promises in his heart, will not leave his friend, and promises to protect his friend again despite the life of the stakes.
