00:00The girl put on her most beautiful dress.
00:01Then she lay down on the bed, quietly waiting for death to come and take her away.
00:05Suddenly, she smelled the aroma of the food her mother was cooking drifting from the kitchen.
00:09At that moment, the girl's tears poured down like a flood.
00:12Her father, unaware of the truth, was standing at the doorway of her room apologizing,
00:16saying he should not have hit her yesterday.
00:18Not long ago, the girl had been diagnosed with terminal liver cancer.
00:21In order to treat her illness, her father went to the construction site every day to carry bricks
00:25and even sold his blood for money, just so he could buy her a pack of medicine to relieve the
00:29pain.
00:30But the girl scattered the medicine on the ground.
00:32When her mother saw it, she scolded her.
00:34After all, the medicine was hard to come by.
00:36The girl said the medicine tasted as disgusting as urine.
00:38Her mother could not, pulled back and slapped her across the face.
00:41At that moment, her father returned home after carrying bricks.
00:44He squatted down and comforted the girl,
00:46saying that the medicine was meant to treat her illness and could not be wasted.
00:49Only by taking the medicine could her body get better.
00:51The girl did not want to hear a single word.
00:53She told her father that selling blood was illegal.
00:56So the medicine had been bought with dirty money, and she would never take it.
00:59Hearing this, the father angrily told her to get back into the room.
01:02It was the first time in her life that she had angered her father.
01:05The pain in her heart felt sharper than being pierced by needles.
01:07But she had to do this because she had long known about her condition.
01:10No matter how much she was treated, she would only be a burden on a family.
01:14Her mother was still pregnant with twins.
01:15She could not selfishly spend all the family's money on herself.
01:18So if she came up with this plan to make her parents think she was a bad child,
01:21only then would they give up treating her late at night.
01:23The girl was tortured by pain so severe that life felt worse than death.
01:27In her days, she actually saw death coming to take her away.
01:30Just as she was about to reach out and beg death to take her with him,
01:32death said she still needed to wait three more days.
01:34The girl thought that after angering her parents, they would no longer treat her.
01:38But unexpectedly, the next day when she returned from school,
01:41she saw that her parents had already prepared the money and planned to take her to the hospital for treatment.
01:45Looking at the thick stack of cash on the table,
01:47the girl thought to herself that it was money her mother had saved by living frugally
01:51and that her father had earned by carrying tens of thousands of bricks.
01:54To make her parents completely give up treating her,
01:56the girl grabbed the money in one handful and said she was going to buy a phone to play games.
02:00Before her parents could react, she took the money and ran outside.
02:03Because the doorstep was too high, she tripped and fell to the ground.
02:06Seeing this, her father grabbed a broom and went over to beat her.
02:09But while the blows landed on the girl, the pain struck their hearts.
02:12They had originally thought the girl was just going through a rebellious phase
02:14and that beating her a few times would solve it.
02:16But unexpectedly, the girl shouted,
02:18it's because you're incompetent that we're poor.
02:20If you don't have money, you shouldn't have children.
02:23Otherwise, when children are born, they only suffer along with you.
02:26Hearing this, the father was furious.
02:27From that day on, he decided to cut off all ties with his daughter.
02:30When the day came for the girl to leave,
02:32she took out her most cherished red dress from the bottom of the trunk.
02:35It was the gift her parents had carefully prepared for her.
02:37On her birthday last year, after putting it on,
02:40the girl calmly laid down on the bed,
02:41quietly waiting for death to come and take her away.
