I gradually open my eyes, everything seems so different. There is a new feeling inside me and something's beating inside me.
I can see people staring at me and mumbling words , but I can't really pin point what they are saying.
It seems they are smiling but their eyes show different emotion, emotion which is far different from joy.
"It's a girl" , I hear somebody shouting. The lady standing infront of the door was quite happy but after hearing those words, she shows the exact opposite emotion of joy.
Im tightly wrapped in a towel and taken outside of that room. I can see a huge crowd gathered, probably they were waiting for me, but as their eyes land on me , i can see the distaste in their eye. I can't understand why they are acting like this, they should be happy about me, but no i think i have made a mistake.
"It's a girl".
"No way".
"Again".
" i knew she was cursed".
"Probably the mother has ruined someone's life, no wonder she gave birth to a daughter again".
That's the only thing I can hear people saying. The pain, sorrow, hate was all for me.
My eyes land on a man , its not difficult to notice him as he's the only one who's truely happy. He gently takes me in his hand , afraid to harm me in anyway. It dosen't take me a second to guess that he's my father. Only a father can be this happy to see his child, no matter a girl or a boy.
I see the joy radiating off his body . And his smile is the most beautiful thing i have seen so far.
"How come you're so happy, its a girl not a boy, she will ruin you, i can't let you waste your money on her, girls are better dead than to be kept, your son would have helped you, but maybe you'r unfortunate." A man states angrily at my father. I just stare at him, how can he held so much hatred for me, I am just a child. I haven't done anything wrong, so why are they angry at me. My father just brushes off his statement and wraps me around his arm.
My eyes are searching for someone , but i don't know who.
"Bring me my child", I hear someone saying.
I am again taken to the same room. Their on the bed lies a lady who seems to have tears of joy and a huge smile, I just smile at her. The lady pecks me on my cheeks and forehead.
She starts to cry, but I can't understand why, in her eyes I see happiness but than why is she crying, it takes me a moment to realize that it's her way to show how happy she is, her eyes shine brightfully when I smile at her and she pecks me on my lips. Their's a mirror infront of me and for the first time I can see my self, my eyes are just like my mother, round, bright and in a deep shade of brown. My lips are very small as compared to my face. My nose is all round and small  and my cheeks are a deep colour of pink. My mother is holding my hands but compare to hers' my hands are really small and round. I am the complete opposite of monster so why do they hate me?, i haven't harmed them so why are they angry?, is it just because im a girl.
I dont know what future awaits for me but i am quite aware of it that there will be surely struggle and hardships because...... I am a girl.
