That last push for life

Short Story

Letting out that last scream of pain. Giving one last push, squeezing the hand of the man you want to spend the rest of your life with. Finally resting, when that special cry is heard. The cry of a new life brought into this world. Once that cry reaches your ears, the tears start cascading down your cheeks. After a nice cleaning, and check up a bundle is gently placed in your arms. A sniffle leaves your lips as you bring the bundle of life closer. The delicate eyes looking at you for the first time.  A soft kiss placed upon your forehead along with the one you get to see grow up. The little smile playing at the ones lips, slowly falling asleep in your arms. Softly smiling, knowing you finally have your own family.
