00:00After suffering more than 10 miscarriages, she still couldn't have a child of her own.
00:04Completely heartbroken, she and her husband decided to adopt, but on the day they had arranged,
00:09the single mother who planned to let them adopt her child, suddenly changed her mind.
00:12This made the woman start to wonder, if she was simply never meant to have a child.
00:16Just then, a little girl saw her crying, and shared her lollipop with her.
00:20She said it would help cheer her up.
00:22Later, the woman learned from the director, that the girl's name was Lena.
00:25She had once been adopted and then abandoned, which left her very quiet and withdrawn.
00:30And because most people wanted to adopt younger children, she had remained at the orphanage.
00:34But that chance encounter, made the woman feel like this was the child meant for her.
00:37So she soon completed the adoption, but after the girl came home, she barely spoke.
00:42She barely ate before going upstairs, since this was their first time becoming parents.
00:46The couple had no idea how to comfort her.
00:48They could only plan to prepare different food for her the next day, and let things happen naturally.
00:53Without rushing her, the next day, they realized Lena's birthday was coming up.
00:57So they decided to throw her a birthday party, but then they were told that wasn't actually her birthday.
01:01It was the day she first arrived at the orphanage.
01:04After saying that, she went straight back to her room.
01:06But that day, the girl suddenly came downstairs.
01:09Without saying a word, she walked out of the house.
01:11Her parents were so worried that they immediately ran after her.
01:14That's when they saw a stray dog standing in front of her.
01:17For the first time, the girl took the initiative to speak to her parents.
01:20She said the dog looked cold and hungry, and begged them to let it stay somewhere warm for a while.
01:25Seeing how hopeful her daughter looked, mom immediately agreed.
01:28The girl finally smiled, with her first genuine smile since coming to their home.
01:32After that, she gradually became more cheerful.
01:34But one day, mom saw Lena scolding the dog.
01:37She threatened to send it back to the orphanage.
01:39Mom immediately realized there was a deeper problem.
01:42So she asked Lena why she would say that.
01:43Lena said an older girl had once been adopted, because she ate too much and made too much noise.
01:48Her adoptive parents kicked her out.
01:50After mom hugged her and encouraged her, Lena finally started eating full meals.
01:54She also began talking to her parents.
