PopularNovel| made no reply. This was not hard to guess. We were both mothers. | was sure she knew how | felt.
"As a mother myself, | understand you, but | also hope you understand that you're more than just a child's
mother right now."
| slowly turned to look at her. "What are you trying to say?" | had a bad feeling about this.
What | needed the most right now was support. | did not want Susan to go againstas well.
"What I'm trying to say is you shouldn't give up on this child." Things still did not go as | hoped.
'Do you suppose | watch Munchkin get tormented by the disease without doing anything?"
My tears started flowing like a broken pipe again. Every t| thought about Munchkin being brought into that
abandoned chemical plant by Mason, | would resent myself countless times. It was a resentment that could
never be dispelled.

you that giving up this child doesn't mean you can necessarily keep Munchkin alive."
| did not say anything. | knew what Susan was trying to tell me.
Probability. It was a question of probability.
"I have to try." | knew parents stood a 50 percent chance, but it was already high enough.
"You can try, but it doesn't have to be right now."
Susan was so calm today that she felt like a stranger to me. "How long am | supposed to wait? Until I'm
desperate?”
"es."
| did not say a word as | felt like | had said enough today.
| did not want to argue further with Susan as it was all just pointless arguments.
Besides, | never thought we would cto this point today.
"I know no mother will just sit and watch her child die. You're Munchkin's mother, but you're also the mother of
the baby inside your tummy. Do you think it's fair to sacrifice the baby to save Munchkin?" | made no reply.
Susan continued, "I know this is a tough decision to make. It's not an easy decision for you to make, but you're
firm about it. Why is that so? It's simply because this child hasn't been born yet and you think it's easier to
sacrifice them. Compared to Munchkin who has been with you for years, this baby is minuscule in comparison.
Perhaps they're even insignificant in your heart?"
"No." My voice was extremely soft as | was not confident. My hands were tucked into my coat pockets as |
silently stroked my abdomen.
This was a child | had not even met.
In fact, | knew that Susan was right. The reason why | was so resolute was that | had not met this child.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf this child had already been born and fate requiredto choose between them and Munchkin one more time, |
might not be as firm anymore.
"I'm not asking you to give up Munchkin's treatment. I'm just asking you to give yourself more tto think
about it.
Munchkin is important, but this little being is equally important. They haven't appeared in front of you, but they
already exist and are alive. You have to make more careful choices."
She walked up toand silently took my hand. "Besides, they might be a force that can help Munchkin as well."
| gradually calmed down, and my mind wano longer a mess.
"Perhaps we can try finding a match for Munchkin first. Maybe someone else happens to be a match?" Susan
slowly said.
