What Now?
What Now ?
" You are not like the others", They say. The neighbours say that you are not like their
babies.
You don't smile, you don't look at me when I am feeding you. This is not true I keep telling
myself. "You will grow out of it,let me just give you one more month to develop more.
The month has passed and you are the same. I think it's time to go get some advice from
the doctor,after she has examined you she seats me down and says;"Mrs. Brown,your child
is not like the other babies". I shake my head and ask."What now"?.
