Chapter 3:Love by nightmares
As the sun landed west, stars started to appear. The dark night sky was filled with so much stars that we could almost imagine we were in outer , in wartime,planes and anti-aircraft cannons fired to the sky just like a fireworks display. But in Stalingrad,it is complete snow with endless blizzards. It was so cold some soldiers suffered from frostbite. If a soldier is equipped with the flamethrower,he was lucky to get heat but could be shot easily in battlefield. Most soldiers like Lev was lucky they got to sleep indoors. The rest of the penal battalion would sleep outside shivering due to harsh October days despite a fire pit nearby.
After the incident with the German and the mysterious woman, things have been really strange. What really annoyed Lev is the fact that he got kissed on the forehead every night while he sleeps! Every dawn before brushing his teeth, he would expect multiple lipstick marks on his face. Fortnightly, besides a face covered with lipstick marks, he would also get a bar of chocolate from his desk where he wrote all his journal writings. Also when he sleep,he would also feel a body sleeping by him which haunted Lev in his sleep.
One night, Lev was curious so he slept with a rifle on his bed. Though it was risky, he tried to shoot whoever kissed him on the face. He was too sleepy to concentrate on his task. In the end, he slept.
"What the heck?" Lev asked himself as he looked around his bed covered with ice. What a way to ruin a morning.
As he reached his desk, he saw a piece of paper. Without anyone around, Lev started reading the letter...
"Dear soldier,
Thank you for helping me out! I was at my brink of death. Thankfully you helped me finished him. I was to shy to talk to you after the final blow so I ran away from the place. I also wanted to avoid being suspected. Hopefully you enjoyed the gifts I've sent you. If you want to meet me, I will be around somewhere. You'll find out.
Love and kisses,
Queen Elsa of Arendelle. "
"So the letter was written by... a snow queen?That's just a myth." Lev whispered to himself.
Still curious, he decided to go to the place to meet her. Before reaching there, there was another strong blizzard. While trudging through the snow, a random explosion was infront of him. He was fortunate he was outside the radius. Surprisingly, he was knocked out. As he felt a bash at the back by a rifle.
