Give Back My Son! Part I

Chapter 4

Give Back My Son! Part I

 

A blue sign with the words 'Nursery Room' was placed on a clear glass wall on one side of the obstetrics ward. Khing walked slowly towards the mirror to see many of the newborn babies sleeping soundly in their neatly lined beds. She looked for her child by reading the birth name the nurse had written on their beds to show parenthood to prevent swapping. For further reassurance, there were also birth name tags attached to each baby's wrist.

Khing wandered and read the nameplate with her swelling heart. Dying to see her son, her heart was almost torn apart. But no matter how many times she walked around; she could not find her son’s name on any child's bed. That was not hers...neither was this. No... Her son was not in this room.
