Chapter 3 - The Daughter Left Behind
The maid sat on the steps,
wiping her red eyes.
A little girl walked up to her,
holding a small toy.
"Mommy,"
the child asked quietly,
"is daddy coming home."
The maid hugged her daughter tight,
sobbing into the little girl's hair.
"I am so sorry,"
the maid cried out.
The groom stood in the doorway,
watching his secret family.
He had abandoned his own blood,
all for the sake of money.
He walked toward the little girl,
but the maid stood up quickly.
"Do not come near us,"
the maid warned him.

The groom stopped in his tracks,
knowing he had lost everything.
