It was actually quite a bad thing.
In the past Matthew was afraid of fire, and the moment he saw some fire he remembered all those things from his past, so that day that she had a fire was a really difficult point for him to overcome.
But in the end, thanks to her, he overcame his fear of fire.
But to his surprise, Anna ended up getting hit.
Is this a test from God for the two of them?
But no matter how great the trials were, as long as they were not life and death trials, he could accept them and overcome them.
But he had to keep her safe.
Anna kept trying to run away after hearing Matthew's words, but she kept her hand well guarded.
"Don't run away and don't be afraid, listen to me, the danger has been eliminated, we are all safe now, as long as you and the baby are safe we can live like this for the rest of our lives, but what if something happens to you, what about the baby? What about me?"
"Don't go on like this, promise me."
Anna continued not to say a word, even though water was beading her eyelashes.
"Do you know why I never had birthdays? Because, as a child, I had my father buried in a fire to celebrate my birthday, and ever since then I have a deep shadow over my birthday and the firelight. So that day when you celebrated my birthday, the sight I saw in my head was all memories of the past. Including when I went to rescue you and rushed into the fire, I was thinking about it. I was afraid that I couldn't leave, but I was even more afraid that you would be buried in the fire like my father, so how could I dwell on my shadow and not worry about your life? So in a way you saved me, you pulled me out of the shadows so that I was no longer afraid of that and could go and face them bravely, but now you have the shadows and that's not how I want it to end."
As he said more and more, Anna's eyelids blinked harder and harder.
The touch of her heart was at first because of the child. Then it was because Matthew had come forward and confessed the birthday incident to her, even though it had happened then and after the two had made up Anna had said she didn't care anymore.
And she did not want to reopen her wounds.
But now she had chosen to tell herself the truth.
It was the equivalent. She had opened his wounds once again.
Hearing him say that his closest relatives had died in the fire, again on his birthday, Anna felt she could even imagine in her head the tangle and uncertainty Matthew felt as he rushed into the fire that day.
She knew he was afraid of the fire, but he had rushed in anyway, against all odds.
If anything had gone wrong, he would have been buried in the fire. So for Matthew it should be more important than his life.
Tears were streaming down his face. Anna had not shed a single tear since she had fainted in the fire, but she had spent the whole day in a nightmare, emotionally disturbed.
But now, after hearing Matthew's words, her tears were like beads that had detached themselves from the strands and fell uncontrollably onto the back of Matthew's hand.
Her heart ached as if something was digging into her heart. But then it was as if some emotion had escaped from her chest?
Only when Matthew encircled her with his arms and embraced her did Anna finally break down and burst into tears.
"Oooh, I'm so scared, so scared, seeing you come running through the fire, I thought all three of us would die in there."
"No, I won't die and I won't let my baby die."
Matteo could only do his best to calm his emotions.
Anna was crying so hard that Matthew could feel a big wet spot on his shoulder, but his mood was not depressed at all, but much more relaxed.
Because with Anna crying, the knot in his heart could have been evacuated. Their sister was still a big girl, women still knew women, and in the future, if there was something they could not understand, they still had to ask Serena for more advice.
