I looked around and saw them all sleeping. I peeped out of the door and slowly walked towards the exit. I was in pain, but at this moment the only thing that I wanted to do was to get out of here.
The newspapers next day spoke of an abandoned girl baby in a hospital.
Why people do this? Painful yet there is beauty in these lines, Soumya.
ReplyDeleteIts a sad reality. Thank you Saru.
DeleteAt least the baby is abandoned in the hospital & not in the garbage-dump, Soumya...
ReplyDeleteStill. She is abandoned by her own mother.
DeletePainful. Why do people do this to the girl child? I still know of so many families who prefer a boy over a girl. When are we ever going to get justice?
ReplyDeleteWe can only hope that someday this will change.
DeleteOh god NOooooooooooo.. no.. why do people do this .. they need to be caught and punished for doing this ..
ReplyDeleteBikram
I agree. But who will provide justice?
DeleteI know that is a question too.. But hopefully law will do something.. and as such a lot is changing in our nation and hopefull law and the keepers of law will change tooo
Deleteotherwise GOD is watching
Bikram
We can only hope.
DeleteA point worth noting is that it must be so traumatic for the mother to abandon a child in this manner. Imagine the circumstances that must have led her to take a move like this.
ReplyDeleteYou've stirred quite a few thoughts in this short post. Good job!
We shall never know what the mother is feeling and what led her to do this.
DeleteThank you!
Oh that was a fine piece. :)

SAD SAD WORLD. Nothing can justify her act.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely nothing.

ReplyDeletedo someday drop by my place too www.doomedwriters.blogspot.com
Thank you Juhi, welcome to my space! :)
Deletesad and stirring
ReplyDeleteOuch! That's terrible! Wonder what made the mother take this step!!
ReplyDeleteOnly she knows!
DeleteWe dont know the situations some people are in and just blame them blindly. This woman may be in an abusive relationship, may have no means to look after a baby and so many other things we dont even know. If she just left the baby in the hospital the baby will still get a life, she may get adopted or may find her way to an orphanage but will somehow live. This is so much better than people who starve and strangle baby girls to death.
ReplyDeleteHer story is still unknown. Will write one from her point of view next.
DeleteA sad world with sad stories.. :(
ReplyDeletesad..:-(
ReplyDelete:(
DeleteWhy did she do this? :-(
ReplyDeleteShe has her reasons, I guess.
DeleteIt's an insult of life.
ReplyDeleteSure is.
DeleteToo painful! The baby girl would never know her mom neither the reasons for which she was abandoned.
ReplyDeleteThat is the saddest part.
Deletewe did it together again, didn't we? :) this is a pain, that was a pain...
ReplyDeleteOh yeah we did :)
DeleteEitherways there was pain.

Thank you Juhi, I just visited your blog! :)
DeleteI couldn't imagine ever doing that. I feel in love with both of mine as soon I saw them.
ReplyDeleteThe case is different here in India.
DeleteThat hurts. But at least the baby was left alive. That's positive, given the statistics of girl-child deaths.
ReplyDeleteSigh....
Will the world ever change ? !
I highly doubt.
