"You sneaky bastard" I snarl at Mateo when I see him seated in the court room as we await the judge.
"Miss me Eufy?" He smirks and I look away
"Be on your feet as Judge Hilary Mantel enters the court!' The guard says and we all stand on our feet, Kendra's hand tightly clutched with mine. She's more scared than I am.
After the judge gives the go ahead, Mateo's lawyer stands on his feet and begins to talk a bunch of nonsense.
"Your honour, this woman here, Miss Eufy-Loviette Johnson, who used to be my client's ex girlfriend, happened to get pregnant during their relationship and now she's denying my client the oppurtunity to be with his child"
"Bullshit" Kendra and I mutter at the same time.
"Where is the child?"
"The lady is still pregnant your honour"
"Then how did you get the DNA test done? Is there even a DNA test to prove that your client is the father of this child?" The judge asks
"Well your honour to answer your first question, a Non-Invasive Prenatal Parternity test from DDC was conducted, so it was possible to determine who the father of the child is even when it is unborn. Secondly, there is a copy" he says and hands the clerk a copy.
How did they get their hands on that? I was the only one who conducted this test with the intention that I'll use it to fight against him in court.
The judge goes through the papers for a while before the lawyer speaks again, "Your Honour, it is very clear that my client is the father of this child, therefore we plead that you grant him a Parternity custody so that he can also have access to his child"
"This is stupid!" I shout
"Excuse me?" The judge raises her eyebrows and I sprint from my seat in anger
"Yes your Honour. Excuse you. I said this is stupid. You are a woman, your Honour, but I don't think you know how it feels like to be raped by four men on a cold bloody night. You can only imagine. And then from nowhere, some fucking stupid ex-
"Language!" She shouts, interrupting.
"Fuck language!" I yell back, as if I give two shits about language. "Fuck language your Honour. I won't sit mute through this stupid court hearing while some idiot tries to claim paternity of my child when his hand never even went past my skirt!" I yell, turning over to look at Mateo "I don't even know how you got your hands on that DNA test because I did not tell you what type I was going for and where I was going to do it. So how did you get your hands on it?"
"Your Honour this woman here is trying to accuse my client of something he doesn't know abo-
"Bullshit!" I cut him off from the crap he's spewing.
"Miss Johnson, do you have any evidence? You are not even allowing your lawyer to speak"
"Because I can speak for myself. I know my rights and I can defend myself"
