A Painful Teaching Pt.4

It was one of the most horrific sights a young child could see at her age. From suddenly meeting a good adult and feeling warmth, it was all ripped from her hands just as quickly. A second ago she was enjoying the warm flame with food and water while having conversation with the old man. All it took was the appearance of this one man to have ruined the atmosphere. It was as if fate was mocking her to be alone forever.

Her body shook as the tears continued to flow down her face like a waterfall. The tears made her eyes blur but she quickly wiped it away. She did not even dare to blink afraid that she would miss a second of what was going on. There was no way to look away either when you saw someone you like being brutally murdered. The concept of murder was never taught to her but directly shown as a practical example.
