My Best Friend Was The Fetus in the Failed Abortion
By Sujanti Djuanda
Every time hear about abortion, I always remember my best friend, Amy (pseudonym).
I knew her when I was in grade four of elementary school and she was in grade five. She was five years older than I was. Her doctor said that she had the low Intelligence Quotient (IQ) so she was only able to study until grade six in elementary school.
My mother said, when Amy was the fetus (unborn child), her parents tried to abort her because they already had three boys and didn’t want any more. Her mother took abortion pill but Amy was still born.
Amy seemed problem with her nervous system, her head and body always moved. She also spoke like a deaf person. However, she had never depressed, inferiority complex or blamed her parents.
We became good friends for only two years then I moved to another town with my family. The last week before I moved, Amy often came to my house. It was a school vacation so she could stay in my house for almost a day and she went home only for lunch and took a bath.
That time, I was rather disturbed because I could not take a nap but now I realize that she didn’t want separate with me. She knew that we would be separated soon< and it could be forever. She was right. Since then, I have never met her anymore even I don’t know where she is. I hope that she will always fine and I believe, one day God will heal her totally.
