The Tears



At the stroke of midnight…
She was lying in agony.
Husband stood there helpless.
Four masked people surrounded with weapons.
One of them came between her legs, holding a sharp tool.
She screamed. Tears rolled down.
He reached for her womb and…
Pulled him out…
She smiled feebly.
Baby cried…  'Its a Boy…!'
Happy Tears.

    First few lines and I felt it was about the Delhi rape case and at the end it was nice to see the tears of joy that every mother enjoys, whats also known as the agony and the ecstasy. Wom, simply wow.
