The boy nobody loved - Chapter 3
It’s a boy
Soon things took a turn for the worse.
One day there was a lot of commotion. Screams, loud noises, pressure around his
body.
At first his head was being squeezed. He could feel the same was happening to the

Wow. He couldn’t make up what was
happening. Light. Silhouettes.
He was trying to make up what was happening as he felt being dangled by
a foot when something hit him.
As he whimpered in pain, he noticed the sound of his cries. Now he knew what some of those sound he heard
when in the womb were.
There were loud screams, he felt being shoved from one place
to another as he was being passed around the nurses, doctors, and eventually
his “mother”.
He couldn’t understand what those sounds meant, but he later
discovered that she had a name for him: Angel.
As all this was going on, he was handed something. He felt he should suck on it. It was what came naturally. And it was the right thing to do. A warm liquid filled his mouth and slowly
descended inside of him.
He wasn’t sure what was happening, but he had just been
born. He really didn’t care much about
what is what. It tasted good. It felt good.
That was good enough.
For a while there was peace and quiet. Lots of people came by his cot in a big room
full of other things. They would pick
him up. Pass him around. Give him the thing to suckle with the warm
tasty liquid. He was happy.
He was a little uncertain about these figures doing all this
stuff though. Ghostly figures that made
strange noises. Hum …
