It was only seven-thirty in the morning and the babies' ward was already full of activity. Tracy was awakened by the sound of running taps and her inconsiderate friends who were screaming their lungs out while having their morning baths. 'How annoying!' she thought.
'Good morning ,Tracy. It's time to take a shower!'
Everything went on well until the after-shower morning exercise. Now, it was Tracy's turn to join in the SCREAM! All hell broke loose! She cried the loudest and the longest and this had led the others to scream simultaneously. Every nurse on duty freaked out! They were in a daze as they had never encountered such an incident before. Needless to say, the" newborn choir" had alerted the matron and patients in the maternity ward, causing such a commotion along the corridor. With anxiety written all over their faces, their mothers made a beeline to the babies' tight security ward.
Together with the security guards, the matron tried to calm everyone down and ensured them that their babies were fine. She then explained that it was just a false alarm. At first, they refused to go back to their respective rooms, but when they saw that their babies were all right, they obediently headed back. Meanwhile, something amazing was happening in the babies' ward....
'Hi, my name's Tracy, Tracy Chia. Nice to meet you.'
'I'm Dylan Rajendran, nice to meet you ,too. By the way, why did you cry just now?'
'Well, I disliked the way the nurse handled me during the so -called morning exercise. Ouch! My shoulders still hurt! What about you? Why did you scream?' asked Tracy in curiosity as she stretched her arms to loosen up the muscles.
'That's unbelievable! You must have read my mind! I felt exactly the same way as you did,' replied Dylan excitedly.
Tracy smiled and said,'Well, great minds think alike!'
