Chapter 51 -59: Do We Need to Take Responsibility (4)
Is this the same now? Were such heartbreaking words due to the lack of a mother?
Isabel Smith’s heart started to pound furiously, each beat a sharp pang of pain. It took her a while to calm her face and keep her composure. She gently touched Raymond Thompson’s head, using her own personal feelings to comfort him, “Raymond, your mum actually misses you a lot.”
“Really?” No one had ever spoken to Raymond about these things before. His eyes brightened, full of anticipation, “Does my mum really miss me?”
“Yes, she does.” Isabel couldn’t express whether she was speaking on behalf of herself to her own biological child, or whether she was comforting Raymond. “Perhaps your mum had some desperate reason not to come back for you, but one day, your mum will definitely come back for you.”
When it comes to children, women are always more detailed and gentle than men.
Percy Stanton was really good to Raymond; however, when it came to discussions about Raymond’s mother, his temper would become unusually irritable. His masculinity didn’t allow him to realize that this would actually hurt Raymond.
So, for Raymond, Isabel’s comforting words were the first he had ever heard. His heart warmed up and he suddenly felt hopeful again toward his mother who, until then, he had given up on.
However, that hopeful feeling only lasted for a short while. He hung his head somewhat regretfully and after hesitating for a moment, looked earnestly at Isabel, “Sister Isabel, there’s something I didn’t tell you.”
Seeing Raymond looking so tense, Isabel also became anxious, “What is it?”

Raymond leaned towards Isabel’s ear and whispered so that only she could hear, his tone serious and cautious, “Sister Isabel, my mother might be a test tube.”
He learned this when he overheard his father and aunt talking. At that time, he was even happy for a long while and proudly told his friend Harry Clarke when he was visiting Harry’s home, that his mum was a test tube.
Now that he finally knew what a test tube looked like, he found it hard to believe.
How could such a small test tube give birth to him?
Isabel was shocked by Raymond’s words and had no idea what was going on inside his little head at the time. She was also turning her own mind rapidly, trying to think of a way to comfort Raymond.
However, before Isabel had any comforting words prepared, she heard Raymond’s worried voice again, “But Sister Isabel, there are so many test tubes in the world, and they all look the same. If I was really born from a test tube, how would I know which one is my mum?”
One second Isabel was thinking carefully about how to comfort Raymond, the next she was laughing and crying at Raymond’s innocent and natural words.
She was even more at a loss as to how to explain to Raymond that his mother was not the test tube, but rather, the owner of the egg that was fostered in the test tube.
Just when Isabel was in a great dilemma, the taxi arrived at the entrance of the hospital. Isabel sighed relief, paid the fare, and got out of the car carrying Raymond.
…
Maybe it was due to it being night, the pediatric department of the hospital was not busy. Isabel Smith checked in for Raymond first before lining up with him.
While checking in, Isabel got to know Raymond’s birthday, which was only a month later than her own child’s.
After waiting for only 10 minutes, it was Raymond’s turn.
