No Hopes

She was back to square one. This was the very moment she lost all her hopes. She thought she would never be able to find her but the destiny had something else in its store. Margret was going by the name of Rita and was not residing in Clydebank. 

Relocated Years Ago

So that is why Norah could not find her all these years. She had relocated to Campbellford, Ontario. She was 85 years old and had moved to Ontario a few days after the birth of Norah.   

Exchanging Letters

Norah contacted her through the mail with an air of suspicion. To be honest, she was not expecting any revert.  However, she soon got a letter from her. Well, from there on the exchange of letters begun. They had a lot to talk about given they remained apart for 60 years. Finally, the woman had found her birth mom but was it the end? 

The Reason

Norah finally got answers to all the questions that had been haunting her since her childhood. Her birth mom told her the reason why she abandoned Norah in her childhood. Rita was very young when Norah happened. Moreover, she was unmarried at that time. So, considering her tender age and marital status, her parents decided to let go of the baby. And since then it was the first time Rita was seeing her lost child.     

Running From Past

However, Rita could not forget her gone child. Things were not working at all for her. So, in order to do away with that haunting guilt and memory, she relocated to Canada. And since then she had been living there only. But now after 60 years when her lost child contacted and urged her to come back, she could not help but say “yes.”

Coming Home

They could not have chosen a better day than that. It was on mother’s day of 2016,  Rita made her way to Glasgow to see her daughter. Norah was very excited to meet her but soon got nervous thinking what if her mother would have changed her mind.
