In a prison, a violent prisoner began to mock an elderly man… without even realizing that nobody knew who he really was. The silent old man who ate silently among the killers was the only one who didn’t have to run from anyone — because everyone fled at the hearing of his name.
She thought she had fallen in love with an unprotected man, but in fact, she had awakened a real monster.
“The Russian” — a short but scary figure, who recently arrived in prison — wanted to pay respect by force. She was looking for someone to harass and she met her target: an old man in the darkest corner of the dining room.
The old man was sitting alone, quietly spooning his soup and looking at no one. “””Got it,”” thought the teaser. Light prey to show who’s boss from now on.
He approached clapping Lárma, slamming the tables on the way. When the old man came in front of him, he kicked his chair with all his might. The snap echoed through the room.
Suddenly, the usual cold mood changed in the blink of an eye. The room was utterly silent.
The oldest prisoners — those who have lived a thousand battles and feared nothing — immediately stopped eating and bowed their heads. Even the guards got tougher, they didn’t dare to take a single step. The “Russian” didn’t understand what was happening.
— What’s up, are you deaf, old man? — he screamed, then he made the mistake: he pushed him. The man put the spoon on the tray in an eerie calm manner. He raised his gaze with a cold-blooded composure. There was no trace of fear in her eyes… more like just pity.
At that moment the leader of the most dangerous band in the area jumped out of his seat, pale, beaten and desperately tried to signal to the “Russia” to stop. But it was too late.
The old man is slowly standing. She barely reached the man’s chest, yet her mere presence filled the room and created a penetrating fear. She rolled up her sleeve vigorously, revealing a tattoo that no one has seen for decades — and then smiled.
The next ten seconds were something the “Russian” will never forget for the rest of his life… The true identity of the old man and the ending of the story will give you goosebumps.
