Guys help me with this how can I write it in a way that I can avoid narrating
                                             
                                          
                                          
                                        
											 
											Dude check this out, it's a possible statement in DIRECT speech:
Pythias lost hope in convincing Dionysius so he said, "Give me two of days of freedom to see my family, friends and to set things aside then I'll come back to give up my life"
