As the nurse had instructed, Amy walked up and down the halls of Mercy Hospital again and again. As she walked past room after room filled with husbands and wives, laughter and encouragement, she was only reminded of how alone she was.
She couldn't help but notice the bright bouquets (花束) in so many of the rooms. One woman had at least fifty roses beside her bed. How strongly Amy wished to also receive flowers!
Months before, her husband and parents had lost their lives in an accident. She only had grandparents, but they were old and weren't able to go to the hospital with her. So, when she would soon give birth, she came to the hospital by herself. She had never felt so lonely. She wanted to have her hand held by someone to feel supported and loved.
As she continued walking, she passed a room filled with people. Curiously, Amy stuck her head in to see what was going on.
The new mother Laura on the bed inside saw Amy. Although she didn't know what happened to Amy, she noticed how sad Amy looked. And she wanted to cheer her up. "Hi! It looks like you're getting ready to have a baby!' said Laura holding a beautiful baby girl. "Let's hope so," Amy said, trying to sound cheerful.
"I'm Laura. Would you like to hold her?" the mother asked. Amy was so touched by her kindness and nodded. Getting to her was the hard part. Laura had more flowers in her room than Amy had seen all day.
As Amy held the baby, she smiled. "Are you having a boy or girl?" Laura asked "I don't know. I'll find it out tonight," Amy said. "Good luck. You will be a great mom," Laura said. When Amy left, Laura learned she was alone and then whispered to the nurses, "Give all of these flowers to her. Don't let her know they are from me."
Hours later, Amy lay in her own bed, alone, waiting to be delivered of a child. She was so scared. As tears fell down her face, she heard a knock at her door.
