Greeted with delight (75-word flash fiction)
A Welcome Arrival
by LisaMay
The time has come. At last my overdue baby has arrived!
Are you a boy or a girl?
I laugh at the absurd question. I don’t care. I’m just so relieved it is here, perfectly formed.
It’s nearly split me asunder, but now my tears of weary effort become ones of joyful gratitude.
You delight me, my beautiful brown-eyed one!
I am flushed with satisfaction as I push the button. The laxative pill has worked.
