She wailed so deeply while walking out of the room after the gynecologist told her that a baby was formed inside her womb.Why did the woman cry this way? The timing was so convenient for her after being married to a man she earnestly prayed for. Was it a happy cry or a rueful one?A scene flashed back into her mind what happened five years ago. This was a desperate and bleak event that she would always carry until the end of her life. She thought it was the only resort to end her shame in the society she lived in. How could she ever survive with it after the man she loved abandoned her? It was so painful, physically and emotionally, that it took her some months to recover. This was a nightmare that always haunted her whenever she went to bed. She had lived on chaotically for some time with the idea of intentionally dislodging her baby.
The doctor found out that the earlier procedure had damaged her uterus severely. She could still conceive a baby but she could die from it unfortunately. The cause of her great moan originated from the idea that she had to choose from the two: her life or the baby's?
