"The Little Redhead" - Chapter Thirty-Five ("Baptism in the Water") - by Diana Goldovniuk
In the morning, several days later, the redhead went out into the living room of the house and her husband looked at her with a questioning look.
The redhead looked at him and asked: "What do you want from me?"
Her husband answered her: "You have to immerse the baby in water, she will be a Christian, everything will be according to what I say."
The redhead looked at him curiously and didn't understand.
She asked him: "Why do we have to baptize her, after all, she is Jewish, I am Jewish and our religion is according to the mother."
Her husband answered her: "And for the Christians, from the father's side."
After hours of confrontations, the redhead willingly and with a heavy heart agreed to her husband's strange request.
Her husband told her: "If you blacken my life, then everything will be according to what I say, so that it is clear to you and without an iota of doubt!"
With a look of pain and fear, the redhead agreed. Her look was pale, tears were falling from her eyes, she just wanted this nightmare to pass as quickly as possible because she was already fed up.
After a few moments, she looked down and her husband told her: "Excellent, that's how I love you, when you feel bad, understand."
The redhead was silent and didn't answer anything.
Well, a few more days passed and the little family went to church to dip the yellowhead baby in the water.
There was a priest there, he read Christian...
