Anna the Poor Girl
Apa?

“What the fuck are you! She's Anna-ku.” Surely Marco is trying to pull. Prevent Hero from taking Anna away from the place before Anna forgives him.
“He doesn't belong to anyone, Sir! And stop demanding Anna be the Veronika you've known all along. Didn't he hear her say she wanted to be Anna? And forever she will remain Anna!”
Kontan Marco is back. “What do you mean say to me, huh?”
Hero grinned bitterly. “I've known Anna before than you. Which means I really know what Anna's been feeling all along. Maybe all this time he was quietly treated like anything, but have you ever thought a little to give him freedom? Sorry .... Not that I was presumptuous, but Anna was my woman and I had to protect her.”
This time the Hero said out loud. Those words were like a boomerang that made Marco lose in the moment.
And now Anna's just been bashed. That in this world only the Hero is the only human who cares about him the most, the most understanding and the most sincere love for him.
Even Hero could tell that Fernando's family had always demanded him to be someone else all along.
“Conscious or not! I just want to say that Anna has suffered enough, sir. Please understand for this time only ...” Hero pleads with stern eyes.
Vanya who already understood the situation tried to hold the husband. “Let Hero take Anna away first, darling. For now only he is able to calm Anna.”
Finally Marco weakens, letting Hero go take Anna with him with a heavy heart.
And when the door closed, Marco realized that he had injured Anna as deep as the ocean.
Marco regretted that he had hoped Anna would become Veronika's character. Veronika is not the younger sister of the man.
Regardless of who Veronika is, Marco still needs the role of Hero to find the answer.

Two hours passed.
“Do you think I've been so outrageous all this time, Van? Have I failed to be a sister to her?”
Vanya raised her hand then summarized the face of the man. “Sorry dear, for this time I cannot defend you. According to what I've seen, you and your family have indeed sued Anna more often than you want. Without you guys wanting to know that Anna has her own wish.”
“Yes Lord!” Marco robs his hair pretty rough. He who had been a bit calm again took out a clear crystal from the corner of his eye.
“It turns out we have been very outrageous to Anna,” said the man lamenting his actions.
“Have been darling. Everything has already happened, now you just need to understand Anna's situation. That girl must be falling down right now. And if—”
Suddenly Vanya hesitated to continue speaking. Making Marco look up with a sideways look towards the woman.
“And What, Van?”
The woman held Marco's two hands very gently. “And later that DNA test showed that Anna is your sister. You and your family should start a new chapter with him. Stop turning Anna into the dead figure of Veronika. Let the girl achieve her dreams with real character. Because what the Hero said has a point, too. Anna is Anna. She's not a doll!”
At that moment, Vanya hugged Marco. The man's body trembled withstanding his sobs.
“I have failed to be Van's sister! I don't deserve.”
“Do not say that. It's not too late to fix everything. Think of this incident as a valuable lesson for our family in the future,” Vanya said slowly.
“But I'm a lousy guy! In addition to often disappointing my wife, it turns out I am also not good at being a sister!”
“Ssst ... relax.”
Vanya kept hugging Marco as tightly as possible. Trying to treat the man's guilt by strengthening his mentality.
“No human being escapes error on this earth Dear. Don't give up and keep trying.”
