Jonas was hated by many people because he believes in being a *lone wolf*.  He has been hurt in the past by people he trusts including his siblings. He might be a lone wolf but he never fails to save any sheep he finds in trouble. However, after the incident that lead to the loss of his son, he decided to avoid associating with people, and the people of his village hated him for that.

On that fateful day, there was a huge crowd at the hospital, people were staring at the doctor's room while it is being burnt down by the fire. The room was built beside the hospital building, and in the room is a 6-year-old boy. The mother who is the doctor locked him in the room so that she can  attend to an emergency call. When she saw the room on fire, she wanted to rush in to save her son but people held her from doing so. She is heavily pregnant and they wouldn't want to risk losing three persons to the fire. 


The standbys on their part are afraid to rescue the small boy due to the intensity of the fire, and the fire service will drive for 1 hour to get to the village where the hospital is located. To worsen the whole situation, the hospital water supply has been down for two days. The crowd was helpless and the mother crying uncontrollably. Then, Jonas came to the scene. Seeing the fire and hearing that a little boy is still trapped in the room. He started weeping silently. He remembered how he lost his boy to fire one week ago, and how the villagers failed to come to his help during the fire incident. He also remembered how the hospital turned down treating his boy when he finally rescued him from the fire. 



At first, he wanted to live the scene, but he later found himself rushing into the fire. In a few minutes, he came out wrapping the boy with his shirt. The crowd recognizing him became speechless knowing how they abandoned him and his son in a similar incident. The doctor herself was dumbfounded because she remembered how she treated the man a week ago. Jonas carried the boy to the woman and said these words with tears " *Doc. , here is your son unharmed. You have been weeping bitterly for fear of losing your son, an indication of motherly love. I felt similar pain a week ago and I still feel pain because my boy is no more"*.

He turned to the crowd, looked at them, smiled, and went home to treat himself. He refused all the attempts made by the hospital to treat him. In his words, " *you are desperate to treat me today because I am a hero, a week ago, I came as nobody seeking my son's treatment, but you all turned him down because I have no money to deposit for treatment. You wonder why I am a lone wolf, but I ask you all, of what point is it, to have friends who will not be there for you when you will need them? You all were busy watching the fire and unable to risk helping this woman that is your employer and friend. If you are to be in her shoe today, would you still value each other's friendship?*
