The entire room fell into a buzzing commotion. A girl was limping and staggering with an uneven gait. Her face was covered in soot as if she had just crawled out of a pile of coal dust.
The crowd’s attention was instantly drawn to the girl and they were all murmuring among themselves.>
“Who is that girl? Look at her legs… Forget being a swimming champion, she can barely walk properly.“>
The girl muttered with emotion, “Mom … Dad… You finally came to find me. I’m your daughter …“)
