Motherhood

It was about to happen. Any moment now. I am going through unbearable labour pain. It feels as if somebody is pulling my veins and stretching them like a rubber band inside my uterus. I am definitely going to die. Wait! No! I can't let me and my child die. I have to do this. Rahul doesn't even know how to cook something as simple as rice. 

Aaaaaaaaa! The pain was increasing with every second. 

Push! Push! The doctor kept shouting. 

I was getting tired, I was all drained. 

It was like a roller coaster ride. It was scary and I was howling with fear. 

You have to push! Come on. My doctor kept howling. 

After an hour of crying with pain. I was finally successful in giving birth. 

My new born daughter had finally arrived. 

A little ball of fur wrapped into pink was handed over to me. I looked at her. A tear fell from my eyes with this bright smile on my face. I remembered a quote from season 1 of friends where Susan says' When this is over, we are all gonna be parents for the rest of our lives.' 

This was the first time I had laughed through tears.
