Heart's Desire | #WATTYS2017

Prologue

The day they took him away from me.

His body remained still and his heart remained quiet.

It has only been a couple of weeks since we saw his heart beat.

We thought everything was fine.

I thought since we saw his heart beat. I had hope.

But now I feel empty.

After days of crying. I was weak and exhausted.

I cried as the nurse held my hand.

I imagined him growing up to be smart and kind.

I thought of August in the waiting room. I cried again.

I sat still as the sonographer told me she didn't hear a heartbeat.

"That was just yesterday... it sure felt like it was today."

I knew that I wasn't done crying.

They began to take him away from me.

I blinked as the tears rolled down my face.

Sometimes I wonder if there would be anymore tears left.

It was this one nurse who was...

"You're baby is gone. Get over it."

Why does it always have to be that one nurse.

My face dropped.

"How could you say that?" I said.

The nurse stared at me.

I was breaking all over again.

A curse word stormed in my head, ready to escape my mouth.

But instead of finding its way out. The sobbing returned.

I just lost my baby.
