Chapter 69: A Miserable Childhood

Chapter 69: A miserable childhood

Life in the city is very fast and no one has time to stop and look at the beautiful night sky.

-I only know that your parents are the only relatives you have now.

Hearing Leopoldo's words, Mariana froze for a moment. Mariana felt a little sad. But her expression

was hidden by the darkness of night.

-Yes, I don't have a grandmother, but Zoraida is like my family.

The man looked at Mariana and said nothing.

-When I was little, I would always come to Zoraida's house and we would watch the night sky together.

That feeling was really beautiful, we are like relatives.

Mariana smiled, the good memories made her happy. Her tears filled her eyes again, so she saw that

the stars in the sky became many.

-You should know that my father is a gambler. He can sell everything for the game, even me, my

mother.

Mariana's words were emotionless.

Leopold suddenly remembered his father, who had come to the set to look for trouble that day.

-Once upon a time, he wanted to sell me to pay me back because he owed a lot of money, but in the

end my mother stopped him.

-However, that was not the end of it. My mother begged my father to let me go. That night I stayed, but

my mother, knowing that she herself might have angered my father and would be abandoned by him,

or perhaps out of fear, beat me severely.

Hearing her words, Leopoldo shuddered slightly and his expression changed. He was still looking

directly at Mariana.

-Actually, I was confused, not knowing if my mother loved me or not. She could be smiling at me asking

me what I want to eat today, and the next second she threw all the prepared food on the floor and

forced me to squat down to eat.

Mariana smiled sadly.

-I ran out of my house crying the night she hit me and stopped here. Then I met Zoraida.

A person who had almost changed his miserable childhood.

-Then he brought me home, washed me, cooked me and let me sleep curled up in his arms.

At this, Mariana smiled happily.

-I used to run here when I felt sad. The people here were very kind to me, and you could say that this

was my secret childhood paradise. My parents didn't know here because I used to go out of my house

secretly. But I went out every day, if they cared about me, how could they not know?

-They just didn't care about me.

The woman smiled, but with a strong sense of helplessness that he didn't want her to have.

-I lived a short happy life here.

It was the only light of his miserable childhood, so he didn't want to let go of it, he tried to hold on with

all his might, but in the end, it was gone.

The words echoed in the star-filled night sky and dissipated in the cold wind. However, the coldness

entered the heart.

Leopoldo looked at the woman next to him and felt a special emotion. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

-The stars in the sky tonight are really beautiful," Leopoldo spoke softly, his words without the usual

coldness, he was comforting Mariana.

-Yes," Mariana answered unconsciously.

Instantly, Leopoldo took off his jacket and covered Mariana's body. The clothes gave off a familiar smell

of tobacco that lingered in Mariana's nose, making her body shudder.

Mariana lowered her head and looked at Leopoldo's black suit, which still carried the body heat of the

man beside her. His heart, which had been gradually growing colder, seemed to be infused with a

warm current at that moment, and Mariana couldn't help but reach out and grab the suit on his body.

-The night does not last forever, at dawn, the sun will rise, no one can change that.

Leopoldo's voice rang in her ears, his words were soft.

-Yes, I've probably already touched the light.

Mariana smiled. It was as if the cold winter had passed and spring had arrived.

The next day.

Mariana got up early, helped Zoraida wash and then went to prepare breakfast.

Mariana was perplexed when she opened the door, the room where Leopoldo lived last night was

empty and the bed was made and no longer had a temperature. She frowned slightly and felt a little

sad.

After accompanying Zoraida to breakfast, Mariana took out the computer she had with her.

He also couldn't forget last night's scenes. He wanted to draw these scenes.

At that moment, footsteps sounded outside the door.

Mariana got up and went to the door. Just as she opened the door, she looked at Lina carrying fruit.

Behind her, there was a short, fat woman with a smile on her face, carrying a plate.

The two approached Mariana and handed her what they had in their hands.

Lina took an initiative to speak:

-Mariana, I brought some fruits and washed them. Let Zoraida also eat some fruit to replenish her

vitamins.

-Mariana, this is the dish I cooked by myself, try it, if you like it, I'll bring it to you next time.

Mariana looked at them, feeling a little perplexed, and asked:

-What is all this?
