CHAPTER HUNDRED AND TWENTY-THREE“Absolutely! They must really have a lot of questions going on in their minds right now.” Marcus said to Brenda with a smile on his face as well. He looked at Brenda with a soft chuckle on his face, while she shared the same sensation as well. At that moment, the doors leading into the hospital flung open, and they grabbed onto each other, with their faces turning to see who was coming out of the hospital. Seeing that it was just an old man walking out of the hospital with the help of a nurse, they laughed loudly again and pulled away gently from each other, with Marcus mistakenly stepping on Brenda’s right heel. “I am sorry, really sorry.”“It’s fine, I am sure you didn’t mean to,” Brenda said with a smile on her face, as Marcus gently let go of her hands, as though he wasn’t really intending to. Marcus coughed twice to clear his throat and the sudden awkwardness that had crept into their bodies as they looked at eac

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND TWENTY-TWOMarcus was shocked to see Doctor Brenda walking toward him with a smile on her face. She had a lovely velvet red gown on and sauntered on black heels. With her arms so read, she walked to Marcus, and wrapped her arms around him, kissing him on the right cheek, while she held onto his waist. “What are you doing here, babe? You didn’t tell me you were coming to the hospital.” Brenda said, looking at Marcus whom she had rendered very speechless. “Who the hell is she?” Janewhispered to the hearing of her mother, but the middle-aged woman was as dumbfounded as she was, staring at the beautiful lady in a red gown without having any particular thought to hold onto. Marcus looked at Janeand Maggie, and realizing that they had an astonished look on their faces, he decided that he was going to play along. He cleared his throat at once, and looked into Brenda’s eyes without blinking, while she winked at him, as an invitation to play along. “I am sorry babe, y

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND TWENTY-ONE Marcus chuckled at Jane’s words, but she wasn’t done talking, as she felt he was embarrassed by him in front of the Doctor, even though she wasn’t sure of the things he said to him. “What’s so funny? Huh? Is that your way of running away from paying the medical bills? Why don’t you handle it, if you are a man?” “That’'s enough, Jane! Stop it right there…”“Or what? What are you going to do if I don't stop? You pathetic loser! You think you are the best father, just because you come every day to see your son. But that's only because you are a jobless good-for-nothing man.” Marcus scoffed at Jane’s words, and then he looked at her, and then at Maggie with a smirk on his face, while they continued to give him looks of disdain. “Stop, Jane. You are causing a scene, there is no need for all of this. What we should be focused on right now is our son’s health. I am surprised you still have enough energy to fight me, after everything that has happened. Our

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND TWENTY  Maggie got up as soon as she said those words to the Doctor, and answered the call, placing the phone to her right ear as she walked out of the office. “Hello, Bella Dear…” Marcus took a glance at her as she walked away, unable to say a word, even though he had a lot on his mind. He eventually turned to look at the Doctor whose attention was focused on the file on the table. “Thank you very much, Doctor. I appreciate your efforts.” “You are welcome, Mr…?” “Trevor, Doctor. Marcus Trevor.” “Right. Mr. Trevor. May I ask you a personal question?” The Doctor asked politely, unsure of what Marcus’s response was going to be, and as he expected, Marcus thought about it for a while, before giving a response. “Yeah, sure.” “Alright…” The Doctor sighed heavily, and then he cleared his throat, while Marcus waited to hear what his question was going to be. “Doesn’t your son stay with you? I mean, does he stay with

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND NINETEEN “Very well then, I hope she gets here soon.” The Doctor said to Maggie, and then he turned to look at Marcus whose countenance refused to change. “What could be going on between these two?” He asked as he continued to observe them closely, stealing glances at them. A few minutes later, the nurse returned with a large metal tray full of some medications for the baby, which she kept on the table close to the stretcher. She carried the baby gently and placed him on the bed in a corner of the room, while the rest of the people in the room watched her with keen attention. A few seconds later, Marcus walked up to the bed and watched as the nurse ran some tests on the baby, before going ahead to administer some medications to him. At first, the toddler cried, but he soon fell asleep, and the nurse covered him properly with a white bedspread. “Please, can we go to my office? I would like to give you some documents to sign.” The Doctor said to both Maggie and

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND EIGHTEEN “Let’s go!” Marcus said to Maggie, and they got out of the vehicle at once, walking into the hospital as fast as their legs could carry them. Marcus continued to look at his son while Maggie carried him through the hallway of the hospital, just before they arrived at the reception there were two nurses seated in their blue uniforms. “Hi.” “We need to see a Doctor, now!” Maggie said to the nurse at the right corner, ignoring her smile and greeting, but the nurse was very polite and pointed her toward the emergency room by the right corner, down another hallway. She looked at the toddler in her arms while she was pointing in that direction, and realized that he looked like he was sick and needed medical attention. “This way, please.” She said with a soft tone, and Maggie left at once without saying another word. “Thank you,” Marcus said to the nurse and joined Maggie, while the nurse responded with a slight nod, but
