Finally we're together, let's start this new life

 Anyone can hear me? Mom? Anyone? Help me, please! Here inside it is an earthquake happening, I’m very scared! At first I only felt like something pressing me once every ten minutes, but now it is faster. 

In the outside there’s a lot of people screaming. I think I had identified my grandparents calling for a doctor, and mom is frightened, like having spasms and crying due to the pain. Doctor made her lay down like when she sleeps, and at that moment I realized myself that I’ve lost the water I was living in. I have to go away and search this water, I can’t live without it!!

Mom is screaming very loud. The pressure on me is very high, I can’t stand here no more time, I have to go, but, where? 

Instinctively, I know what to do. It’s strange, because it’s like by nature I know what I have to do: taking advantage of mom’s contractions, I break through, hoping that I can quickly find again my water, my amniotic liquid. Instead of this, I saw literally the light at the end of the tunnel, trying not to pay attention to my mother’s shouts: I have to concentrate to pass between this narrow space. Surprisingly, all happened faster than I thought it was going to be. 

Everything was very confusing, and while I was trying to ignore what nurses was telling my mom, I finally put up my head at the outside world. The rest was easy: without any complication, I suddenly get outside. 

I don’t know why, but I started to cry. Actually, I can’t stop crying! All my little body is shaking, and everyone around me looks alleviated. Nurses didn’t spend too much time to accommodating me on my mommy’s arms. Then, I dared to slowly open my slanted little eyes. Now, I’m seeing a big smile and two big eyes crying alone with me, but not because she was sad: she was very happy, she was excited! On that moment, when I saw my mother’s smile, I stopped crying and changed my facial expression to a shy smile. I couldn’t talk, but my face was saying: hello, mom, I’m finally here, with you.
