The young mother took the child in her arms and turned pale. A beautiful envelope, a big bow, behind the door — numerous relatives. Only there was someone else’s baby in the envelope — it was enough for mom to take one look to understand this.
Lyudmila carefully put the baby on the table and began to undress him. The nurse irritably asked her what she was doing — they say there is only one discharge room, and several more people are waiting for their discharge in the department.
Lyudmila did not answer anything, with trembling hands she pulled off the baby’s diaper and looked at the nurse uncomprehendingly.:
IT’S A BOY. WHERE IS MY DAUGHTER? RETURN THE CHILD IMMEDIATELY OR THERE WILL BE NO STONE LEFT UNTURNED.
The nurse’s irritation disappeared as if by hand — she ran to the department, and a couple of minutes later the head came down with Lyudmila’s daughter in her arms. She began to apologize and explain that this boy was also preparing for discharge. More precisely, to transfer to the baby’s house, because his mother refused her son.
Lyudmila did not swear, took her daughter and went to her husband. It would seem to be a festive day, but the young mother could not get out of her head that little boy who was taken to the state walls. In the evening, her husband asked her what had happened — she burst into tears and told him everything. And three weeks later, all the big relatives gathered once again — on the occasion of the arrival home of another new family member — Maximka, the same boy who was almost given to young parents instead of their daughter. They thought about it, consulted with their parents, received unanimous approval — they say, where one is, there is a second, we will cope. And now their daughter has a little brother. Only now I had to buy another stroller — for twins.
