Stand Still, Don’t Run Away, My Little Wife

Anna had been in prison for 10 days, and today was her 7th birthday.

People in the prison were all very kind to her and they sang birthday song together. Her father, Aron, who was dressed in a prison suit held her tightly and kissed her on the forehead over and over again.

He said, “Happy birthday, Anna.”

“I’m so sorry, Anna.”

These words, as well as his tears, all showed his incomparable pain and sadness.

And Anna also knows very well that in another three days, she will never smile again.

Because her beloved father who was standing in front of her, would leave her forever like her mother.

Aron was sentenced to death.

Execution by firing squad was in three days. It is said that this ution was very fast and would not make people feel painful. The moment the bullet passed through the body; you would cut off from the world.

Aron came to this prosperous city, Turin, after he got married with his wife. He had no relatives or friends. Even if he did, when people heard that he was jailed, everyone was washing their hands in this case.

He knew that his was unforgivable and God had already punished him by taking away his beloved wife.

But his daughter, who is only seven years old, didn’t do anything wrong. But she would have to suffer from losing parents and being stranded in a children’s detention center. Her life should have been beautiful, not as miserable as she was now.

Aron didn’t know how many times he begged the governor for only one permission. He wanted to see somebody before his ution.

He held Anna in his arms and cried all the time on her seventh birthday. He was already in despair.

Until－－－

“Aron, No. 2436, come out.”

The governor’s voice seemed to be Aron’s last hope at this moment. He took his little girl walked to the separate room at the end of the prison.

At that time, Anna did not know what had happened. Her small hand was holding his father tightly, while the other hand was still holding the candy with birthday wishes.

She followed her father into the room, but did not know that she had entered the cage of her future.

Anna has never seen such a beautiful man before. He just sat in front of them. Under the dim light, the pair of deep black pupils looked like layers of dizzy ink paintings. His face was angular but gentle which was like a jade. And his thin lips outlined a wisp of hazy smile.

It was the first time Anna saw the man named Raymond. She was shot dead by a glance of him.

“Anna, call him Uncle quickly.”

Aron’s voice was tight. Anna did not know who the man in front of her was and why her father reacted so strongly. But now she is already a child without joys and sorrows, like a puppet doll. She looked up with a lovable smile and said gently.

“Uncle.”

Raymond narrowed his dark eyes and looked at the girl in front of him. She was so pure and totally didn’t belong here.

Anna also looked at him, her beautiful eyes never blinked. She had no fear, which was completely different from her father.

“Sir, I know I am sorry for the company and betrayed your trust. I deserve it! But my little poor girl, she is innocent.”

Aron knew that he didn’t have much time and said urgently.

“After I was dead, she was an orphan and was not accepted by others. She was just a child; I shouldn’t let her suffer from this!”

Since his wife became ill, all the relatives in the family have cut off from them. Now that he has committed a crime, people were even more detached.

“Sir, I am not qualified to ask you anything. But I just beg you to have pity on my child and send her to start something new.”

Let her get out of here. Get out of this evil place, or even this city. And let her forget everything.

But Aron understood that Raymond was colder than anyone else. He should not put the last glimmer of hope on this man.

Seeing that man’s ruthless smile, Aron thought that he had no chances.

Is it because of her that father cried again?

Anna thought that she did not want to see the tears of father who was about to leave. Her little hand clenching candy slowly reached out to this beautiful uncle, and when she touched that cold hand, her body quivered.

But she still said sincerely.

“Uncle, have some candy. Can you please help Dad?”

This is her birthday blessing candy. She has not been willing to eat. But at this moment, she gave it to him.

Raymond lowered his eyes and felt the warm between his fingers.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

The temperature and comfort of the girl’s palm is like a wisp of sunlight in the darkness, which made him feel warm.

He is unfamiliar with such warmth, but he likes it very much.
