18th October, 10.07 AM,

the birth of a boy.

His name is Raimu.

[Kokoro no uta] is dedicated to Raimu.

==================================

” You have given birth. He’s a genki boy ! “

The nurse said this to me when Raimu was born.

( But eri wonders if she has really given birth. She didnt hear any cries .. )

Eri Mama’s first sentence to baby Raimu : ” Konnichiwa. This is Mama ! “

==================================

I remember seeing in TV programs, dramas, movies..
that all newborn babies cry very loudly when they first come to this world.
However, i did not hear any cries from my baby boy.
Started to worry.
After a long long time ..
” Okya.. ! Okya.. ! “
A very very soft cry i heard.
” I have really given birth ! It’s my baby ! I heard him ! “

While looking at Raimu deep in sleep, many thoughts came into my mind :

” Let’s attend American School together ! Learning English is a must !

When you grow older, i shall teach you guitar & piano !

I hope you will learn to sing my songs soon ! “

” Sorry. Sorry. It’s my fault. ”

I wont forget.

My promise to you.

I shall stop crying over your hearing impairment.

I shall stop hating God for it.

No matter what happens, let’s walk towards and face it with a smile.
