Patience is a virtue

After returning from the hospital Mac and Lizye full of joy and delight. Their eyes shone with desires and were full of dreams.

Mac kept looking at the baby boy, he gave a big smile and said, ' Wife, don't you think we should give him a name '

'Yes yes, indeed we should… dear'

'So what should we name him? ' said Lizy

' Hmm... How about 'Richard'?? '

' That's a nice name dear' Lizy came over to Mac and continued, ' from now you are Richard Macmillan Qi '.

'Oh, now that I think about it wife, he's going to eat, grow and live here with us in this rotten environment. He will go to a middle class school were he might be bullied, work to death from 9 to 5 for us like a servant, right'

*sighs*

'Can't believe the 'Real' ' child is going to be raised in such a poor environment, but actually he was supposed to be born and brought up with a golden spoon in his mouth in that family ha…ha…ha!! '.

They both started to laugh loudly looking at the little Richard.

' Yeah wife, come to think of it, our baby daughter will have all the luxuries in that family. She will be eating in a golden plate with a silver spoon'

'No wait! How can she eat with a silver spoon , when she's still a baby' said Lizy frowning at her husband with her hands on her waist as if to fake anger.

'Ohh yes you're right honey …she can't eat herself…but…she will be fed by her own servant right! Haha.…sorry sorry' said Mac looking and laughing at his wife's face.

'Uh huh yeah, and not only that she will wake up in her own large room with many servants to look after her, she is going to be a princess right Mac!!'

' Oh I wish I could have seen and have them for us too ' pouts Lizy

'Yes yes…don't worry honey, those all riches are gonna soon be ours, just have a little patience ' said Mac patting at his wife's head.

Mac and Lizy started living their days in dreams and expectations for their better future. They began dreaming about the day when they will have everything and be able to live as the richest people in the city.

Though they brought little Richard as their son, but they never took care of him. They just hired a nanny to look after him. They completely ignored him, living in their own world.

Little Richard, who was still a baby would often cry for his mother, but Lizy just paid no attention to his cries, instead shouted and yelled back to shut up.

At last, they hired a nanny to look after him……

Nanny Anna was very calm and lovable person towards little Richard. Because she had lost her own son, who used to be a soldier, had lost his life in a very young age. She still remembers him and cries for her son.

But the day she saw little Richard, her grief for her lost son was replaced by motherly love and tenderness. She disliked and hated the Qi couple for ignoring such an innocent baby so cruelly but still, she was happy that she could fill in the role as little Richard's nanny and nurture him with her love and care.

In short he was her whole world.……

Little Richard also smiled and giggled happily whenever he saw Anna like he was waiting for her to notice him and play with him. Whenever Anna saw little Richard smiling happily and looking at her with his big innocent watery eyes, her heart would fill with great affection.

She covered him with the soft blanket. She kissed gently on his forehead and sang lullaby in a soothing voice while patting him lightly to sleep. She noticed that he was in asleep.

While looking at his cute sleeping face, she said in determination to herself, 'I'll protect you with all my life sweetheart, you'll never grow up to be like them, I promise you '.
