Abortion

Abortion

In my previous job, there was this poor lady that wanted to be friends with everyone.
“I’m going to have surgery,” she said one day with a certain look in her eyes.
I thought it’d be something gynecology related.
“I did the surgery,” she told me a couple of days later.
“What surgery?” I asked.
“I was pregnant and I got an abortion,” she said.
“What?! What are you saying?!” I exclaimed.
“I was pregnant and got an abortion. We already have two little girls. A third child would be too much.”
“Are you crazy?! Shame on you!” I said.
But it was too late.
Maybe the situation would’ve been different had she been educated.
I don’t know!
