Through Heavens Eyes
April,1988

“Dear God” the doctor silently exclaimed neither in fear nor in the way the baby was bawling, but in genuine surprise as he stared at the dark baby girl who had just been birthed. He held her up in the light but it was the same colour he saw. “Wow this is really something!, she‘s really beautiful but it is definitely strange” the nurse standing by to take the baby said narrowing her eyes. The doctor came out of his ‘trance’ and handed the baby to the nurse whose face was as if stamped with a smile, she cooed to the baby while another nurse joined her and they walked out of the room.

He looked back at the mother now under a drugged sleep; he would have to ask her, they weren’t even fair in complexion “how?” he thought; he then gave instructions to the nurses concerning the woman and went out. As he walked to his office he thought to check it up. But she could have a foreign relative, such colour…, it was amazing. Through four years of practice and more than seven hundred births and thousands of people he had seen, this was a first. He would mark this birth as special in his diary and follow her up; he would definitely like to follow her up.

Getting to the door marked Dr Ibinabo Gaines. He thought back to his first child born just three years ago vivid memories playing back. As he sat down in his office to take notes, he said a quick prayer, took out his phone and called his wife who was at home with their second child, a girl who was four months old. As her voice came across the line he spoke “Darling you won’t believe it, the most amazing thing just happened…”
