What he felt as he stepped closer to that incubator would stay with him forever.
The doctor on duty, a seasoned pro used to neonatal wards, was just starting his usual rounds. Just another ordinary dayuntil one tiny detail caught his eye.
A newborn was crying softly in its cot under the harsh ward lights. Nothing unusualuntil the doctor reached to check the babys ID bracelet. Thats when a strange chill ran down his spine.
The newborn, only hours old, suddenly grabbed his fingerwith surprising strength.
Then, all at once, the machines around them started flickering wildly. Alarms blared for a second before silence.
A nurse whispered, Thats the second time this week
Things took a weird turn fast. The hospital records had no trace of this babyno name, no mother listed, no digital footprint. A newborn with no past, no known origin.
Even the medical readings were odd. The monitors showed strange fluctuations in the babys heart ratealmost as if it reacted to the emotions of the staff.
Speak softly, and everything calmed. But the slightest tension? The monitors would spike instantly.
A simple glitch? Coincidence? Or a medical mystery no one could explain?
In this fictional tale, theories flysome say its an admin error, others (a bit more superstitious) call it the “Child of the Unknown.”
The doctor, though? Hes hooked.
He comes back every day, drawn to the quiet baby like theres some unspoken secret even science cant crack.
