Stealing Hearts

By Haley Dixon

Chapter 1

Have you ever found some one that stole your heart? I have, and no it's not what you think.

As I got into the car on the way to work I heard a cry from my backseat. That's strange, I thought as I looked back. But as I did my heart stopped at what I saw. A little baby girl was wrapped in a blanket in a car seat. I quickly pulled out of my driveway and made my way to the hospital while dialing nine-one-one. When they finally answered I quickly said," please you have to help me, I was in my car on the way too work and I heard this crying and when I looked behind me there was a baby girl in a car seat. She looks about two months old."

On the other line I heard the receptionist talking to someone else, then she said to me, "take her to the hospital and there will be a nurse there to direct you to the right area where she will be checked for any signs of illnesses."

I hung up and concentrated on driving and quieting down the little girl. We finally made it to the hospital where I jumped out if the car and got the baby out, just like the lady on the phone said there was a nurse outside waiting to take me inside.

I'm now in the waiting room hoping that the little baby was okay and that her parents had been contacted. Just as I was about to get up and leave I heard a nurse say, "Ms. Ash-Rose, please go to room 516. The doctor is in there waiting to talk to you." I sighed and thought. Darn she caught me. I turned around, smiled, and then headed to the dreaded room 516. When I finally got to the room I heard quiet talking, and of course me being me put my ear up to the door and listened in. I've heard a lot of scary things lately but this was the most terrifying. I pushed my emotions down and walked into the room.
