A very special boy

6-billion resident of Planet Earth, Anan , recently celebrated his twelfth birthday. She wants to become a pilot and his babo heal.

 

"I remember well that day. He is 12 October 1999. year. I thought I would give birth in Visoko, but due to some complications, they transferred me to Sarajevo. And when I gave birth to their Adnan in two minutes after midnight, they told me that my baby is 6-billionthinhabitant of planet Earth. It was my first, now an only child and I was delighted. I felt the strange and beautiful and somehow I was doubly happy, "says Fatima Mević, the mother of a small Adnan.

The next two days in Sarajevo maternity hospital was more crowd around Fatima and her baby, because it was prepared ceremony 6-billionth of the Earth population, a godfather himself, former Secretary General of the United Nations, Kofi Annan. "It was indescribable.Adnan had a special dressing room for the ceremony, a beautiful cot that were brought from somewhere, I came to a hairdresser and šminkerka, and I had a special wardrobe for this act, "says Fatima Mević, adding that the ceremony were present in media from around the world. Kofi Annan gave a speech and took the baby in arms, gave her name and that was it. Godfather, Kofi Annan more never appeared in Adnan's life.

Adnan slept through the ceremony of declaration of 6-billionth Earthling, do not remember anything, and that he was however, slightly different boy, he began to realize when he was close to four years. "It became clear to me that I still, as you say, a little different because when my birthday is always a lot of journalists come from all over the world. Other childrens not happening ", says Adnan Mević and looking into the eyes of his mother prompts forwhat he said. She nods and says, "Son, whatever you say, Mom would agree with that."Adnan said he was a good student, and especially likes history and geography, because they are there somewhere, in the textbook of geography, the data on the population of planet Earth where it mentions his name. He would like to be a pilot when she grows up.Adnan is already showing the peculiar sense of humor that heritage many Bosnians. "If you only know my godfather. Well, not condescended to come to either my birthday. KofiAnnan, mygodfather, I did not even give any certificate stating that I am just 6-billionthin habitant of planet Earth, which is supposed to be handed to me. I'd had with a certificatein life. Suppose, on the border that we do not need a passport. Show the certificate and they let me go. These are what came from the United Nations, they do not interest me. Notat all important to me. And you would be angry that you declare a 6-billion or moreinhabitants, and no sign of them from the man who was my godfather. What is the best man? ", Says Adnan, not hiding his disappointment with the former Secretary General of the UN.

Persuade him that he writes and asks what he is entitled to - a certificate. "But where is he now? Where is Kofi Annan? And to see him, I would say to him: 'Shame on you and shamewas that we have never come on your birthday! You forgot to give me a certificate, aboutbirthday gifts that do not talk! 'And when he came, I do not know if I would have received, "Adnan said bitterly. I ask him if he thinks that we are in and otherwise forgotten some ofthe world, and without delay he replied: "Yes. To these are to blame our politicians, thosein Parliament! "In Bosnia and Herzegovina, even fairy tales have happy endings. There is always something that will spice up the happiness sadness. A sadness in Adnan's eyes is much deeper than what is shown in the photos. his father was sick Jasminko hard two years ago. the pension is gone as a one hundred percent disabled with a pension of 310 KM. Mother Fatima has long been unemployed. Adnan gets scholarship from the city of Sarajevo in the amount of 200 KM. all that money, all 200 KM families Mević spent for drugs diseased Jasminka. what, then three of them live?"I would like someone to help my father in the treatment and that's it", says Adnan. The father watches with pride in his son is the final effort keeps tears. "Adnan is like my child to me najposebnije child, although all children in the world the same. I wish that my sonbecomes a man when she grows up to have a nice life and good work. It is important thatschool, because school has never been issued. It does not need it to be, as our peoplesay 'aman', but to be a man, it's important, "says Jasminko Mević and his wife Fatimaadded:" Given what's happened to all of Bosnia and Herzegovina, I am grateful on thescholarship of 200 KM, granted by the City of Sarajevo. Woe to me only when I see howAdnan's father who suffers from a seriously ill. "Planet Earth is ready to receive the arms of his 7-billionth population. Would you like Adnan to meet with him? "Well, I do not know. Itwill be just another baby. As I talked with her? ", Says Adnan Mević.
