The detail that cracked my certainties

Five years have passed. Gabriel grew up, sensitive and dreamy. One Sunday at the park, he froze in front of a swing. “Mom, he was in your stomach with me. »
He showed a little boy. Same hair. Same look. Same birthmark growing on the chin.
It was not a vague resemblance. It was troubling.
Je me suis approchée de la femme qui l’accompagnait. Et je l’ai reconnue.
Elle était aide-soignante à la maternité le jour de mon accouchement.
