Leaving
Editor: Atlas Studios
Her daughter had become so thin in just over a month. Holding Rainy, she walked forwards continuously until she reached a garden outside. The sky, with warm sunlight, was unlike the dark, rainy weather a few days ago.
They had seen a sunny day, but would they still be able to see a tomorrow?
She sat down and settled Rainy in her arms so the sun shone on their bodies. She lowered her head and gently caressed her daughter's face with her fingers. A drop of tear fell on the child's pale little face.
"It's so warm, Mommy." Rainy placed her little hands over her eyes. She had not seen such warm sunlight for a long time.
"Well, shall we sit for a longer while?" Xia Ruoxin hugged her tightly and asked softly.
"Okay." Rainy nodded quietly, not looking too good. Her small hands tugged on her mother's shirt, no strength in her fingers.
"Mommy, Rainy is hungry," Rainy said softly upon hearing her stomach grumble. She really wanted to eat something.
