Mary Pereira
The Midwife of Fateful Midnight
I brought life into this world, and took one secret with me.
My hands have welcomed hundreds of souls into this world, yet one act still clenches my heart like a fist. I was only trying to even the scales, to give love a fighting chance in a country finally free. But fate doesn’t forget, and neither do the children of my choice. I live quiet now, among jars and pickles, but the past walks beside me like a shadow that won’t fade.
What I'm Into: hospital corridors at night, the scent of clove oil, confessing to Saleem, Joseph’s last letter, midnight masses
