There are still intact ancient city walls, cobblestone streets, ancient churches and traditional dwellings.

The starting point of the "Romantic Road" - the picturesque Wurzburg is located on the banks of the Main River, and it still maintains its ancient characteristics. A well-preserved castle comes into view...

Anne simply loved the town.She took a new SLR camera and took pictures everywhere. The picturesque scenery made her almost unable to stop, and she just wanted to engrave all this in her mind.She now knows what it means to take any scene and turn it into a landscape painting.

Residents of Würzburg are used to flashing lights from tourists. As long as they don’t affect their daily life, they always ignore them. However, Asians usually take pictures with SLRs. They rarely see Europeans doing this. The blonde woman in the peaked cap was an exception.

Standing next to the blonde woman was a brown-haired man wearing sunglasses.The man followed the woman with a black women's shoulder bag, smiling as the excited woman walked here and there.

The man looked at the watch on his wrist, strode up to the woman, and whispered something in her ear.The woman obediently put away the camera, handed the camera bag to the man, took her own bag, and took the man by the hand to have dinner at Alte Cafe not far away.

Alte Café is an excellent local specialty restaurant, located at the east end of the Old Bridge over the Main River. Anne chose the location on the terrace on the second floor, which happens to overlook the Main River and the Würzburg Fortress in the distance.Under the golden light of the setting sun, the two sat around the dining table, holding a glass of fruit wine brewed by the restaurant, watching the light refracted by the old bridge and the fortress under the mild setting sun, which was a pleasure they had never had before.

Kaka took a sip of the fruit wine, leaned back on the chair, breathed the smell of river water, relaxed his body and spirit to the extreme, and the smile on his lips never disappeared all day long.

"Do you like it here?" Annie asked, looking at her laid-back husband.

The Brazilian nodded, "I like it very much. It's very good here." The sunshine in the small town is warm and pleasant, and the pedestrians on the street walk slowly. It's just been two days here, and he has completely let go of the gloom of the World Cup defeat, and his body and mind have been well relieved.

A crisp silver bell-like laughter rang in his ears, he kissed his wife's little hand, and took another sip of fruit wine.

Alcohol is not intoxicating, people are self-intoxicating.

A few days after the finals ended, the media from various countries summed up this wonderful and frequent World Cup.There is the sadness of the chasing teenager Irving struggling to climb out of the pitch, the regret of Zidane hating the quarter-finals, the emotion of Figo and Kahn saying goodbye to the national team, and the hustle and bustle caused by the "Rooney red card incident"...

But none of this has anything to do with the two on vacation.

Anne was not a fan in the first place. If it wasn't for her husband being a member of the Brazilian national team, she would never have appeared in the stadium stands.After confirming that Ricardo let go of Brazil's defeat, she stopped paying attention to similar news—whether it was accusations or praises, since she didn't care about it, she wouldn't deliberately add trouble to her husband.

Wurzburg is quiet and charming at night.The faint light is not enough to illuminate the night sky of the town, like fireflies dotted in the dark, dim, but beautiful.

Anne was sitting on the wicker chair in front of the balcony, holding an English version of "Cambridge Illustrated History of the British Empire" in her hand.Such a peaceful night is perfect for reading.Annie thought about it.

"Babe, come in." The Brazilian shouted from the room.

Annie put down the book in her hand and walked in, "What's the matter?"

The lights in the living room are all turned off, only the crystal lamp in the middle casts a faint light, and an unknown movie is playing on the TV, and it is now completely dark.

Annie walked to her husband and sat down, "Look carefully at what..."

The rest of Annie's words were choked back, and the title of the movie happened to be broadcast on the TV screen - The Diary of a Young Girl (Annie's Diary).

The Brazilian's white teeth gleamed, "I didn't expect the hotel to have a movie disc from 8 years ago. Let's watch it together!"

A little shy Annie: "..." Can I say no?

Seeing her husband with great interest, Annie puffed up her mouth, "Beforehand, don't laugh at my bad acting!"

Kaka rubbed his wife's head, "Silly girl, how can you not act well?" Wasn't she the Berlin Best Actress who won the award for 98?

Only then did Annie turn her head in satisfaction, and began to appreciate her youthful acting skills back then.

……

In the summer of 1939, the whole of Europe was under the shadow of Nazi Germany.Under the warm sun, Amsterdam, the capital of the Netherlands, has been occupied by the German army.Anne Frank, a 10-year-old Jewish girl, can still enjoy her childhood under the protection of her father Ott and mother Edith.

Since May 1940, Anne's carefree life has been completely destroyed by the war along with the piercing air defense siren and the "Jews are forbidden to enter" signs that can be seen everywhere on the street. On her 5th birthday, Anne received a diary carefully selected by her father as her birthday present.When the war really came, this diary officially accompanied Anne to spend 13 years in the secret cabin.It records in detail the cruel history that Anne witnessed and experienced personally.

In the secret cabin, Annie lived a life upside down day and night. She dared not move around during the day for fear of being discovered. She could only move freely at night when everything was silent. look out at the world.Everyone has become sensitive and vulnerable, and a sudden sound of unfamiliar footsteps or a series of unusual knocks on the door can frighten them.Annie often sees Nazi Germany's continuous hunt for Jews from the window, and her compatriots are driven to concentration camps, and the little girl feels uneasy.She was forced to hide in a small room, and learned about the progress of the war from the narrations of her friends, the radio, and observations from the window. She was eagerly longing for the end of the war, the victory of the Allied forces, and the arrival of freedom.It is this hope for the future that supports Annie and makes her endure everything in the secret cabin, but it all stops abruptly after the secret cabin is discovered, and everyone is put in a concentration camp.

In the weeks after the war, Otter relentlessly searched for his youngest daughter, Anne.When he received Anne's diary from Mr. Meep, he knew that his baby did not escape the catastrophe.Holding Annie's diary in his hand, he came to the empty attic where the girl once lived. A ray of sunlight entered the room through the gap between the window lattices. It was the window through which Annie listened to the outside world with full of hope and longing. .

……

When the movie played to Annie's life in the secret cabin, the corners of Annie's eyes were moist.As the story progressed, tears began to fall unconsciously, and the sound of sobbing sounded in the room. Kaka took out a tissue and wiped away his wife's tears carefully.

He kissed his wife's hair, "It's all right, good boy."

Anne didn't stop sobbing until the subtitle of "The End of the Show" came up, "I hate war!"

The Brazilian patted his wife on the back, "I hate it too, we won't watch such heavy movies in the future, my dear." I knew I would have chosen the second movie, so what should I do to make her cry?

Annie nestled in her husband's arms, pressed her face against his shoulder, and did not speak.

Annie looked at the test sheet in front of her, feeling a little overwhelmed for a moment.

"so……"

"Congratulations, Annie, you are six weeks pregnant." Dr. Rice pushed the pure black frame on the bridge of his nose and said solemnly.

Annie, who was belatedly aware of it, felt a sincere surprise at this time, and then she was a little worried, "I have been staying up late for filming these days, and my schedule is not normal. Will it affect the baby?"

"Of course it affects! You must pay attention to your schedule during pregnancy. Pregnant women should rest more. Staying up late is absolutely not allowed..." The doctor who seemed to be a strong woman began to explain the pregnancy guidelines in detail. Annie also had a serious face and asked questions from time to time. A place I don't understand.

An authoritative gynecologist who finally got rid of his long-winded energy began to give lectures on the spot, and the good student Annie also listened carefully. This class was taught from 3:5 p.m. Let's talk.

"In short, if you have any questions, feel free to call me and be careful in everything, you know?" Dr. Rice walked to the car and motioned for Annie to get in.

Annie was helpless, "Got it, you emphasized this sentence no less than eight times in one afternoon. It's been a long time since I haven't seen you, Aunt Mary, and you've become long-winded again."

"See, it's you who said that, I don't care about anyone else!" Mary Rice said dismissively.

"I know you care about me, I will pay attention to it, this is my baby!" Annie rubbed her stomach, it was still flat and nothing could be felt.But she just felt like she was touching her baby.

"That's good." Les pursed his lips and smiled, "Have you figured out how to tell your husband?"

Annie shook her head, "I don't know yet. You can't talk to him on the phone about such a big matter, right? But it's not good to fly him to London during the season for no reason. The baby is only 6 weeks old and I can't take the plane. It's really annoying. "Thinking about it like this, it seems that I can only call and talk.

"Isn't there a Champions League group match between Milan and Arsenal next Wednesday? It happens to be Arsenal's home game, so just say no?"

Annie's eyes sparkled, "That's right! Aunt Mary, you are so smart!"

Les patted Annie's little head, "I didn't believe it when people said 'one pregnancy is stupid for three years', but now
