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

The man left.

Aron was crying, but Anna stunned.

She looked at the her empty hand, bit her lips and frowned.

He took her the only candy.

But at that time, Anna did not know that what Raymond took away was her whole life.

… …

“One hundred and twenty－five, one hundred and twenty－six…”

The girl sat on the corridor chair and counted, looking at the dust on the ground and mumbling all the time.

The moment the shot was fired, she counted to 150.

The voice stopped for a moment, and the whisper continued to come. But this little girl cannot happy anymore, the only thing she had was pain.

“Three hundred and eight, three hundred and nine…”

In the end, what stopped the girl’s mumbling was the long shadow in front of her.

She looked up and saw that deep eyes. Time was walking, but she was still.

Raymond looked at her with a seemingly absent smile.

That’s my girl, he thought. She was pure enough without any desire.

“You took my candy.”

Anna spoke first.

“Uh－huh.”

That cold hand reached out to her. The long and beautiful hand seemed to make people confused and lose direction.

The girl bowed her head, as if the time had stopped.

Until she put her hand on his palm and her warmth and his coolness merged together. Anna knew that she was not alone anymore.

Raymond left the prison with her, the dark place that she cherished very much.

The man took her candy.

Fortunately, he didn’t forget to take her away.

It was also that day that he caressed her cheek and smiled slightly.

“Anna is not suitable for you. From now on, you are Danae.”

She may not smile again, but she could warm him forever.
