Seated in a dimly lit prison cell, Alex's haunted eyes reflected the darkness that consumed his soul. The weight of his guilt was suffocating, yet he displayed an eerie calmness, a physical manifestation of his absurd mental health.

Detective Robert Morrison, a seasoned crime branch officer, was assigned to probe the disturbing case. As he entered the interrogation room, he noticed the palpable tension in the air. Alex's nervous demeanor betrayed the storm of emotions raging inside him.

"Tell me what happened that night," Robert asked sternly.

In a quivering voice, Alex recounted the events leading to that fateful night.

His father was a tyrant, subjecting him to relentless threats and abuse everyday and night without any reason.

"The abuse was unbearable that night," Alex whispered, tears streaming down his cheeks. "I couldn't take it anymore."

but we were too afraid to step in."

Robert pieced together the puzzle of Alex's past. His childhood was marred by fear, pain, and desperation. He was pushed to the brink, with no one to offer him solace or protection.

Finally, the pieces fell into place on that tragic night. Alex's father had gone beyond all limits, mercilessly beating him in a fit of rage. In a moment of desperate retaliation, Alex grabbed his cricket bat and swung it with all his might, killing his abusive father.

As the trial progressed, even Alex's mother testified against him, succumbing to fear and societal pressure. Her testimony sealed Alex's fate, and he was sentenced to life imprisonment.

In the courtroom, as the judge announced the verdict, a haunting silence descended. Alex's face contorted into a maniacal grin, revealing the extent of his mental instability. His shrilling laughter echoed through the court room, sending shivers down everyone's spine.

The prison door closed, sealing Alex's fate. Behind those bars, he remained a broken soul, haunted by the demons of his past. The boy who had endured so much pain had now become a symbol of tragedy and lost innocence.

As Detective Robert left the courtroom, he couldn't shake off the weight of the case. He couldn't help but wonder if Alex's life could have been different if someone had stepped in to protect him. The story of Alex was a grim reminder of the profound impact that abuse can have on a young mind, culminating in a chilling tale of suspense, thrill and a fateful climax.
