PrefaceA Chapter by HayleyMy story doesn’t start as a happy one, like most do. My story is different. I was never like the other children at the orphanage. They were... normal. My name is Elizabeth. I’m seventeen and have lived in an orphanage all my life. There is something abnormal about me that made my mother put me up for adoption. It had started when I was only a baby. “I’m awfully sorry, miss, but your baby has died inside you. We couldn’t possibly bring it back to life now,” the Doctor sighed. “NO!” she screamed, “My precious baby girl is not an it! How dare you!” “Come back in two weeks and we’ll check up on you then if you’re not sure,” the Doctor said calmly, a final remark as he closed the door carefully behind him. It had been two weeks and she returned reluctantly. “I can’t believe it... your... your... your baby’s alive. We’ll have to perform an operation to get your baby out. It’s too late for you to do the duties yourself. I swear that this is the most unusual thing that has ever occurred here, but we can assure you that your baby will be fine... hopefully.” She gave a sick nod as she listened to the Doctor’s words. As she got shown her first child she gasped in awe, “She... she’s... beautiful.” And that was how I came to be. © 2010 HayleyAuthor's Note
