Franco, 22, worked as a waiter at a hotel, while his elder sister Carol, 23, was a salesgirl. They were very poor and struggled to make ends meet. Their father was severely ill with liver problems and required medication, and their mother also had health problems.
Brother Sister Story – The Loss of Father
As a pretty young woman, Carol received many marriage proposals, but most were rejected due to their family’s poverty. This burden was compounded by the tragic loss of their father, who succumbed to his liver ailment in the hospital, leaving Carol and Franco to shoulder the weight of caring for their ailing mother.
Franco could not do much with his monthly salary and he finally decided that if he wanted his sister to get married then he must take some loan from somewhere. Since he was not getting an official loan from the banks hence, he decided to take his good friends’ help.
During this period of time, there came another proposal for Carol from a rich boy. The boy was in a hurry to get married as he had to join the ship. Franco talked to Carol and decided to take a loan against his house and the surrounding property.
His friend Roland assists him by providing the necessary funds and taking possession of the
house and property as collateral under a formal agreement.

Carol Gets Married – Franco Takes Loan
Finally, Carol got married and told Franco not to worry about the loan as they could repay it together. Franco visited Carol one day at her new home, where she seemed very happy as her in-laws and husband all took good care of her.
During this period Franco lost his mother due to a heart attack. Franco found himself all alone and felt lonely and sad. At the same time, his tension was building up as he was wondering how he would pay all the loans. To date, he had not paid a penny.
Franco’s friend frequently visited him, demanding money or threatening eviction. This made Franco’s situation even acute. One day, Franco sought refuge at Carol’s home, pleading for financial assistance to appease his demanding friend. To his dismay, Carol reacted harshly, instructing Franco to never bother her again and forbidding him from visiting her home.
