Dear Mommy,

I know you, Daddy and everyone around is happy because I am going to bloom your world. I know my presence would be like fireworks in your lives and everyone will love me every single moment unconditionally. Mommy I don't wish to come in your world but plead to die and never add any sparks to your lives.

Please don’t succumb to what I will be narrating you ahead in this letter. Decades have passed since the time we have attained freedom but when it comes to females the thoughts suddenly curb to budge.

Thousands of questions simply gush into thinking- “She is a girl!”. Why do people still find it hard to digest that every female born has her own charm and finesse to stand out in the crowd and mark her presence aiming for the sky? But No! A female is a piece of furniture meant to adorn the four walls of the house.

Do you know every second a girl is being exploited in our motherland? Harassed by the filthy perverts, those eyes filled with odious intenti

ons would follow me everywhere. People will be harsh and judgemental over the length of my clothes, the things I consume, my career, my workplace, the friends I chose to be with, the places I visit, the virtues I’ll bare. I will be under pressure to lead my life as per their choices.

The term gender equality only exists in the eyes of law but bearing the audacity to preach the same word would be very difficult for many out here. Biased opinions will always hamper my identity. I will end up losing myself amidst the irrelevant and in digestive societal norms.

Faith in humanity will be lost and more importantly I will only end up cursing my existence. I even know you and Dad will never let me down but the burden of the aura will never allow me to live the way I want and mould my life as per my wish.

And thus Mommy, I beg you to abort me rather than giving me life and dying of shame.

From-

The girl who is yet to be born.
