Warm Sunsets and Cold Dawns

Extension of CH: 01

This is just the extension of chapter 01, cuz I know no one wants to scroll about 3000 words in a single chapter. So I had to split the chapter into two parts.

Enjoy!

The old man leaves the hospitals.

The old man visits the hospital next afternoon, the little girl was sitting in her bed, face tucked between her knees, tears running down the length of her little cheeks.

The old man had some food in his hands, he moved closer to her. The little girl didn't noticed his presence, he touches her shoulder to have her attention, she quickly wipes her tears.

"How are you feeling dear?" He tries to be as soft and comforting as he could.

"Who are you mister?" she innocently asks him.

He smiles at her, "We met last night, don't you remember?" She nods (yes) at him.

"My name is Fred. What's your name dear?"

She looks down, after a while she answers him "I'm Bonnibel ..... Bonnibel Ethan."

He pats her head to make her comfortable, and kill the strangeness "Nice to meet you Bonnibel."

"So Bonnibel, did you ate something?" He gently asks, trying his best to gain her trust

"Yes, they gave me some milk and soup, it didn't tasted good though."

"Hehe, here, I brought you some delicious red grape juice and snacks." He held them for her.

"Do you like red-grape juice, or would you want apple juice."

"Hmm, red-grape." They both ate the food, while the old man talked with her to make her more relaxed and comfortable with him.

Two days passes, he asks her about her parents, her relatives and some other stuff, he introduces himself, his life, his past and daily routine.

Note: Fred Robert (Name of the old-man is Fred Robert)

Fred visits her the third day to discharge her from the hospitals, Fred has never felt so happy in his life before, these past 4 days has been the best days of his life. There is something about this little girl, that makes him very happy.

He found out that the only person left in her family, who could take care of her was her uncle Garyson

Note: (Uncle Garyson = Uncle Gumbald = A2(The person who killed Bonnibel's Parents.))

Bonnibel insisted on living with the old-man, as much as he wanted to adopt her, he knew that the right thing was to send her back to her family.

Fred the old-man visited Bonnibel's Uncle Garyson, so that he could leave her with someone trustworthy. But Garyson simply rejected to adopt Bonnibel. This really pissed-off Fred.

What could he have even done at the time .... he was old, didn't had any sort of power, and didn't wanted to get into extra trouble. His life was already a mess.

He decided to adopt Bonnibel as his daughter cuz Bonnibel wanted to live with him and he loved her as a daughter.

Fred was a guy, who rented a small apartment and lived alone. He had enough money from his job, to support himself and live a normal life. His wife, when the time she was pregnant died due to cancer, and hence his child also died.

Till now he didn't had any spark, any light or happiness in his life, no reason to live.

Bonnibel was the spark, he started to love life, wanted to live again. He cherished life and the time he had with the adorable little girl.
