Chapter III:

Discovering the Truth

They took the baby home, and pulled out some of the outfits that had been given to them. There was this frilly dress, with pink lace, and another one with blue flowers. They chose the one with blue flowers, and Lily grabbed a diaper. They set to changing the baby, and it wasn't until Lily was fastening the diaper that she realized something wrong.

"WHAT THE HELL?!?!" she shouted. James came running into the room, and standing beside her, he asked her what the problem was.

"This baby isn't ours. This is a boy, not a girl," she said removing the diaper.

"Holy crap! They must have given us the wrong one. Let's go back and see."

Lily and James grabbed "Harriet" and jumped in the car.

As they sped to the hospital, Lily couldn't help thinking that it might be possible that the hospital had made a mistake, but not the kind that they had thought of at home. What if this really was their baby and the people at the hospital were wrong about the sex? This was always a possibility, but Lily didn't want to think about that. There had to be a mistake with the baby that they were given. There was no way that this little boy was theirs.
