The broken heart

life is really complicated

My friend named Anna.she’s a very cheerful person always laughing nd playing .You won’t even know she’s facing a lot at home until when I decided to follow her home one day after school . Her dad is late so her mom remarried to one man named victor.Anna is just 15 then nd I was 16 cause I’m one year older than her.All I noticed is that she’s always scared of her stepdad. But she never told me why . So on this day I followed her home but her stepdad was the only one at home.so we went to her room to do our assignment. He came inside nd asked her to come I could see the fear on her face. I noticed she didn’t enter for about 20min so I decided to go nd look for her. As I was going down the stairs everywhere was quite but I could her someone’s voice struggling to shout . I continued going then when I got there. I opened the door nd shouted I found her on the floor trying to crawl out 🥹immediately he saw me he started moving towards me . I ran to upstairs nd locked the door, I took my phone nd called her mom told her everything. He was struggling to break the door.so she rushed home .

Immediately he heard she’s coming he quickly asked Anna to dress up nd wash her face nd threatened her not to say anything.immediately I saw her through the window I opened door nd rush downstairs He acted normal as if nothing happened The anna went to greet her mom and the mom was like what happened anna said nothing that she just woke up nd tears rolled down my cheeks cause I was expecting her to talk after that the mom asked me to leave her house that why did I lie to her I was trying to explain to her that I’m saying the truth that probably he has threatened anna

I went upstairs to carry my school bag and I left nd I stopped talking to anna . The next day she met me at school nd came to apologize that she was very scared of saying the truth nd he wnt even allow her to have time with her mum.He’s always saying she should go nd read or go to bed.

Then I told her it’s fine that I’m not angry. After that we decided to come up with a plan . We closed early and went home to set a camera .so Immediately he came back he dragged her nd did the same thing he’s always doing to her . The next day she brought the camera to school nd now we have evidence cause her mom is deeply in love with him so she wnt believe anything we say without evidence

So we went to her our class teacher nd begged her to help us invite Anna’s mom to school saying her daughter is sick or something.Then she rushed down to the school.Anna quickie went to hug her nd we dragged her to our cafeteria to sit she was confused saying she’s busy at work but she had to rush down here . We asked her not to freak out nd we explained everything to her nd we showed her the evidence.She started crying saying so her daughter had been going through this since all these years and she didn’t even know nd she apologized to anna so she called him to ask if he’s at home He said yes then we all went to police station to report to avoid him from escaping the police didn’t carry their car . We entered first nd make sure he won’t be able to escape the they arrested him.
