I’m an only(?) child. I’ve been living together with my parents and some relatives since I-don’t-know-when. We are an extended family – and it’s quite hard but I can say I’m happy.The longing for a sibling, a big brother or a little sister [my parents prefer a little girl], has been bugging my mind since I knew how sad it is to be the only child. I always have a cousin or two living with us to at least fill the missing players of our home, but then again, a sibling is a sibling. I thought this yearning would be forever – until…
Around 8:00PM earlier, a family friend from Tondo called my father – and he delivered the most unlikely good news: there was a newly born baby girl left on a secret abortion clinic! Actually, it was aborted by the real parents but luckily, the 7 month-old child survived and is now breathing. One thing’s for sure: it needs a family.
We were all shocked – we wanted that baby!
But we can’t have her, not now… not while my mother is still under recovery.
I saw the face of both my parents: their lips expressed joy, but their eyes wore pain. I felt the same way, and at the same time I felt sympathy for that little girl and loathe for her mother.
I thought I’ll finally have a little sister [I’ll name her Hermione!], oh well, that’s life.

that sucks... "parents" have their not-yet-born baby aborted...
hey, uhm... i'm pro-life but i'm not really against abortion, but only if its fetus is around it's first month...
(we're born only child... but i do have half--siblings, 2 actually, both older than me... ^_^)
every child has a right to be a part of a loving family..., adopt her tol! hehe tc ")

As I've said above, we can't..
Wala rin mag-aalaga sa kanya dito..
But if it happens that that opportunity struck us on a good time, surely we'll adopt her..
\m/
Yeah..
I'll add trust and loyalty to that..

No to abortion! Walang puso ang inang gumawa nyan.
But if you can adopt that cute little angel, then i'll be more than happy for not only you will have a li'l sis but she will also have a new family to take good care of her. what a nice deed to start the year! ;)
its really hard to be the only child...pareho tayo... but thats life... sana okay yung baby wawa naman
Wala tlgang puso..
Matapos pumunta sa ika-pitong glorya, ilalaglag ang bunga?
