The girl was lying on the floor, surrounded by a red puddle. The man stood beside her, holding a cloth. He was pressing against her side, trying to stop the bleeding. Someone shouted:

— “He took her life!”

— “We knew it! Once someone takes a life, they never change!”

They tackled the man to the ground, tied him up, and someone called the police. But when one of the men looked closer, he noticed that the girl was still breathing softly.

It turned out that when she fell into the river, she had suffered a serious injury. During the night, the wound reopened as she slept.

The former prisoner shouted for them to call an ambulance, but no one listened. Everyone judged him for his past — no one even thought that he was only trying to help.

The next morning, everyone stood silently in front of his house, not knowing what to say.
