THE STORM
I was an ordinary lawyer, fighting for people I never knew.
My world was simple — just me and my home.
I grew up alone, with no one to depend on. So I decided to become someone who could be depended on by anyone. My name is Vanya.
They — my comrades — call me Fool, and I am used to it.
It was another Monday, a new case. But I never knew this was the day my entire life would collapse.
I was accused of extortion and bribery — something I would never do. I defended everyone, but no one defended me.
My whole world shattered. Everyone judged me. My clients looked at me with disgust. My comrades called me unfit. No one stood by me.
I tried to deny it, but… no one believed I was a scapegoat. My words no longer mattered.
For the services I had done, the judge cancelled the imprisonment. But I was restricted from practicing as a lawyer for five years — for a mistake I never made.
A truth only I know.
