Chapter 6

• I opened my eyes with a slight groan as I tried getting off the bed.
• " Marvy " I heard someone call and I turned, it was my personal maid, Lia. She bowed lightly.
• "Ma'am wants you downstairs, she said you should have your bath and meet her soon" Lia said and I groaned mentally.
• "Alright" I replied and sent her off with a wave.
• Where're we headed to again?, Gosh, it's tiring.
• I walked into the bathroom, whitsling along as I undressed myself.
• I entered and turned the shower on, I stayed under the shower for so long before grabbing my brush and began scrubbing my body.
• Sometimes I just enjoy bathing like this, instead of bathing in the tub.
• I was finally out of the bathroom, I walked over to my closet while drying my hair with a towel.
• I was finally done dressing up and I walked out of my room, descending the stairs as I walked over to mom who was seated in the living room engrossed in reading a mail on her laptop.
• Phew!, Being a business woman ain't easy.
• "Mom, am done" I announced and she hunmed in response.
• "Give me some few minutes, you can go eat your breakfast" Mom said and I nodded as I walked over to the dining room.
• I sat down and the maids served my meal and I dig in immediately, devouring my meal.
• It was then I realized I hadn't been eating frequently for some days now.
• Marvy, you don't wanna starve your baby!, Huff!, She's still a foetus.
• I choked on my food and a maid rushed to me immediately with a glass of water which I gladly took from her.
• She?, How sure am I that my baby's gon' be a girl?, Or, do I really believe that silly dream?.
• I shrug the thought outta my head and continued devouring my food.

• * Hill Crest Medical Clinic *
• I read out the building's name in which I was standing, mom right beside me including Carl and some guards.
• We were putting nose masks on to prevent attracting people, yeah, mom's really a popular figure in the country.
• "Mom, why are we here?" I whispered gently to mom, Hill Crest is declared one of the biggest hospitals in town, Infact, we could say only rich folks come here.
• I'm not suspected we're here, but why?, this isn't our family hospital.
• " We're here for a test " Mom said and with that, led the way while her Carl (her pa ) walked behind her.
• I sighed before following them, We've been going to lots of places, which am not really comfortable with, I don't like outings, but I bought this upon myself anyways.
• ***
• We were finally inside the hospital building, and I was inside a ward with mom, sat on the hospital bed, where I was asked to lay down.
• They had extracted some blood from inside of me and I still wasn't told the reason, but since mom's aware, am a bit calm.
• "Mom, how long am I to lie here?" I asked mom.
• "Just hang in there for some minutes baby" Mom replied and turned to the doctor standing beside her.
• "Are they done?" Mom asked
• " They should be here soon, Tyler's delaying a bit " The doctor replied with a smile.
• Tyler?, Did he mean, Tyler?, Like Tyler??.
• What's he doing here?, Why am I here?, What are they doing to us?, Us?, I shouldn't care about what they're doing to him, I only want to know what's going on, I hate being left in a confused state.
• * Meanwhile in Tyler's ward *
• Writer's pov
• "You sure mom?" Tyler asked for the umpteenth time.
• " Yeah, am sure, come on " His mom replied and Tyler sighed before turning to the doctor.
• "What am I to do with this?" He asked, swaying the oral swab in front of him.
• " You're to rub it inside your cheek, and that's all " The doctor replied and Tyler scoffed inwardly before doing as he had been told.
• "Here" He said and dropped it on the bed before standing.
• " Mom, I'm out , bye dad " He said and pecked the duo's cheek before walking out of the ward.
• Anna ( Mrs Bills ) heaved a sigh of relief before turning to Mr Bills.
• "If all these turned out to be unreal, I'm not gon' take this lightly with them" She said and Mr Bills scoffed before walking out of the ward, without saying a word.
• ****
• Marvy's Pov
• I gulped down into nothing as the doctor announced the result, I found out they were only carrying out a NIPP( Noninvasive Prenatal Paternity test) on me, to find out if Tyler was really responsible for my baby.
• I could see the shock on Mrs Bills face, she looked angry and annoyed at the same time.
• I knew she didn't expect this.
• "Since you found out the truth now, I hope your son would take responsibility for his baby" Mom said and I scoffed inwardly.
• It's my baby, not his. Wait, what am I saying?.
• "Yes....Since we have no choice now "Mt Bills said.
• " It's all our fault for not mentoring our son well, if not he wouldn't have got us into this mess, and I'm glad his mother is here to witness all this " His said, rasing his tone slightly.
• I could see that look of disappointment on his face. He never imagined his son could do this, the same look mom had on when she found out.
• " So, what do we do now? " Mrs Bills asked, scrunching her face angrily, but covering it up with a smile not to make it obvious, but I knew mom noticed as she released a short smirk.
• " It's up to you now, I'm fine with my daughter and her baby, all I wanted was you two admitting your son is responsible for this " Mom said and I could see Mrs Bills trying so hard to scoff but held it in.
• You must be thinking, but yes, my eyes were focused on her.
• " How about Marvy move in with us? " Mr Bills blurted out all of a sudden and at that moment, my ears behaved like they weren't mine as I didn't think they were working perfectly.
