1 Suicide

"What, what are you doing Nicka? You think suicide is all solved?"

Uncle Remi scolded him badly, when Nicka was fully aware of the suicide that she had committed for the umpteenth time.

Trying to run, running from disappointment with the attitude of those closest to him. considers that he is a child who brings disaster, at a time when the family business is destroyed. The bad attitude of his parents and his brother who followed suit intimidated him. And it lasted for a long time to make an imprint on his heart as well as his mind.

The wrong upbringing of both parents, by pampering his two brothers, with property, to make them free to do whatever they want.

On the contrary, he distinguished himself only because the moment he was born, the big trouble came. And he is the one who is considered the cause of destruction.

Fights began to occur in the endless family, which he had to witness almost every day.

Nicka is fed up with all that, like a habit that she must face without being able to avoid it, if something bad happens, she will always be the one to blame.

***

Nicka was silent hearing what her uncle said. Like being reborn, he felt his life felt lighter to live his days ahead.

Nickayla is the daughter of three siblings and she is the second child. Living in the midst of a well-to-do family because her parents have their own business by employing several people who come from out of town and some from their closest relatives.

Has shoulder-length hair, with a moderate height, 165 centimeters. Slightly dark skin color with sharp eyes. Adaptable. However, it is not easy to trust something, be it in someone or something else.

Nicka is not as happy as she should be. Living with pressure, insults, bad sentences and the difference in treatment he gets from people who should love and protect him. That was the reason why he had repeatedly tried to end his life. However, it always fails.

Since that day's incident, everything has changed, even though Nicka spends most of her time in her room. He returned to his usual routine.

Nicka likes to pour everything she feels into her diary, whether it's writing or just drawing. He also likes listening to music.

That afternoon, in a slightly calm and quiet atmosphere he grabbed his diary and began to draw line by line and then form an object that suddenly the lines gave off light, then presented a scene that surprised him. The lines formed the image of a young woman and a few minutes later the image was almost perfect until it became real.

Nicka started to look confused because she knew exactly this was something impossible.

'How did all this happen?' he muttered.

He was already in a different room, observing the room carefully, a woman was fast asleep in front of him.

Nicka looked at the woman, it looked like she was more or less older than him, although Nicka didn't know whether her guess was right or not.

How could he possibly be in this room. All of this is still a question mark perched on his mind.

Not wanting to wake her up, Nicka fell asleep until morning came.

When he opened his eyes the woman he had seen last night looked at him instead.

"You, who? Why are you in my room?" ask the girl

"I-I'm Nicka, who are you?" he replied, stuttering.

"Me, Nina! How did you get here?" the girl asked again.

"I don't know, I don't remember. What was clear was that I was in the room drawing, suddenly the picture ..." Nicka looked around looking for something.

"This?!" said Nina, showing the small book she had picked up from below.

"Yes it is." Nicka grabbed the book and showed it to Nina, the drawing she had made last night.

"This, the one I drew last night, suddenly the picture shone and I'm here." the story.

Nicka tried to explain, but Nina still didn't understand how, the strange woman suddenly fell asleep in her room.

He had seen Nicka's picture, thought it looked like him, but, it still didn't make sense.

"Sorry I have to hurry, because it's the first day I start work."

"Where are you going?!"

"You, just stay here, don't go anywhere," Nina suggested and then rushed to prepare the absorbent and clean the house before her mother woke up and shouted at her.

"Lock, don't let anyone in the house see you!" he ordered as he walked away leaving, Nicka, just like that in his room.

After his father left. Nina, lives with her mother and stepfather, whom they recently married.

Nina was disappointed because it had not been a few months since her father had been buried, and her mother had remarried.

Ever since her father died, Nina, had to listen to everything her mother had to say.

The cheerful Nina becomes quiet and is always a place of irritation for her mother.

While at work, Nina did not expect, because Nicka followed her.

"How did you get here so fast, when I didn't see you."

"I don't know! Don't worry about it, the important thing is now, I'm ready to help you."

And, that's right, Nicka swiftly helped Nina's work, just like when she was at Nina's house earlier.

When they were busy cleaning Nina received a message, she looked panicked and stopped her work when she read a message that turned out to be from her mother.

[Go home soon, he just beat up mom!]

The sound of the message made Nina rush out of the shop after getting permission from Uncle Robert, a friend of her father's, who gave her a place to work part time.

Nina pedaled her bicycle through the forest for about 15 minutes. Yes, his place of work is not too far from his house.

Nicka who witnessed that immediately returned to Nina's house in the same way she came earlier. Only with desire alone he could not take long.

Nina pedaled fast she didn't want the boy to keep hurting her mother.

His relationship with his stepfather is indeed not close, although on the one hand he feels the man is not evil, but hearing what all his mothers say, that the man likes to be rude and likes to beat his mother, he hates the man, although he had never seen it.

Nina must follow her mother's plan to teach her stepfather a lesson.

When you get home. Nina was surprised to see Nicka already at her house, but she ignored it and immediately went to meet her mother.

"He's sleeping, mom has cooked his favorite food, we'll run it when he wakes up." whispered her mother, who had a sad face and red cheeks like she had been slapped.

The innocent Nina just nodded.

He didn't even dare to stare at his mother's face any longer.

Married to his mother, without his consent, what could he do if his mother loved him so much, even though his father's grave had not yet dried up. And the man came with an offer of wealth which his mother immediately accepted.

Nina could have refused to disagree with the plan, but the threat of her mother and uncle that would take her away from here, from the house where she was born, from the place where her father was buried, she didn't want that, she wasn't going anywhere. . He didn't want to be separated from his father.

Nicka, who had been observing him, overheard Mrs. Nina's conversation on the phone with someone.

[Don't worry Roy, I've made the kid believe that that guy often abuses me. It's all a lie and after that old fart finishes the food I've poured poison on, we can be free to have the treasure as we planned, and I can send the child to the orphanage as we planned too.]

The woman chuckled as she poured something back into the plate containing the food that was ready to be served.

Nicka, who saw and heard almost half of their conversation, made her own mind wonder.

'Why did that woman lie to her son? Would Nina's mother really do that, would kill, Nina's stepfather. What was the plan behind the lies he told Nina.'

After ending the conversation.

Nicka saw the woman stash the small bottle under the corner of the cupboard. Then left the kitchen after sorting out which food he had poured the liquid earlier on.

Nicka thought hard about what she should do. Should he throw the plates away or tell Nina. If he did they would definitely think it was Nina's doing and they would definitely take the girl away from here and leave her in the orphanage.
