Dear Mummy, I have been in your body for three months. But today I fell quite scared. I know you are very sad, and I can remember two days ago, how happy you were when you saw my first picture on the screen. The happiness stopped when the doctor told you I was a girl.
Your whole body became cold and Papa didn’t say a word, either. That night my little world broke down when I heard Papa said that a second girl has no right to be born. I have the right to be born, Mummy. Is being a girl that terrible? What crimes have I done?
You cried and shouted “NO”! However, you then gave in with tears. I could feel your pain, Mummy. But, no, Mummy! Don’t kill me!
Mummy, I want to be born. I want to live with you. I want you to hug and love me. I want to be your pride. I want to play with my elder sister. Mummy, I want to celebrate my birthday.…
Maybe I ask too much. Your cry lasted the whole night and it became louder with my kicking. Once my little movements had given you so much delight but now it causes more pain than happiness.
