Exes' Baggage And More

CHAPTER SEVENTY FOUR

Macy walked into her unit tired. After a long debate, Ken finally left after getting a message from Katy. Once again, she doesn't care anymore. What's important now is that her son is back. And for this incident, she is increasingly convinced to seize the custody of Marcus from Ken.

Because if this is what happened when her son asked to meet her but Ken refused and reasoned in ten days it was their official meeting according to the court's decision. So, what will happen in the future?

She didn't want to sacrifice her son like this.

And regarding her son, she didn't see anyone in the living room or kitchen. So, she went to the boy's room. The door opened and she could see Andrew was helping Marcus to change his clothes, very carefully.

"Are you okay?" the man asked as he removed the sling from Marcus' shoulder.

The boy shook his head. Andrew smiled. "Maybe the anesthetic is still strong enough. You'll feel uncomfortable later."

"That's okay. If mommy is strong, then I can be too."

"What do you mean?" Andrew asked as he helped to carefully remove Marcus' T-shirt as it passed his bandaged left arm.

The boy took a deep breath. "I know mommy was in the hospital. Daddy didn't say anything, but I can tell."

Andrew looked at Marcus for a moment. Then he turned to the closet for a nightgown with buttons. "How did you know if your dad didn't tell you? Uncle is sure, mommy didn't say anything either."

"I asked a friend of mine to help me send an email to St. Havens."

Andrew turned and looked at Marcus with a frown. Macy also frowned. Marcus asks his friend for help to send an email? She thinks that none of his school friends can use the internet or even email.

"Your friend? Schoolmate?" Andrew asked quietly as he put on the blue nightgown.

Marcus shook his head. "Daddy's neighbor has a child. A high school student. I asked his help to send an email to St. Haven and asked about mommy."

Well, if it's a high school student that sounds plausible. But that doesn't answer how the boy found out that Macy was in the hospital.

Andrew buttoned the shirt. "Okay, so you sent an email to St. Haven, then you asked if mommy goes to the hospital?"

"No. I asked to schedule a meeting with mommy. But they replied that mommy was unable to accept any meetings for a month due to health problems. Mommy has never had a serious health problem. But since it's been a month, so I thought it was really serious that it might have to be treated."

Andrew cannot determine if Marcus is a child who is reckless or smart. Where can you find a six-year-old asking a high school student to email his mom's workplace just to ask for an appointment? Especially if he wants to meet his mother, can't he tell his mother? Why does he have to do it like that?

"Schedule a meeting? What's that.... wait a minute, you sent an email and got a reply. Didn't they suspect that the one who sent the email was a high school student? I mean, by writing diction and..."

The boy rolled his eyes. "Uncle, we looked for examples from the internet. It is very easy, you know."

Macy almost laughed at her son's reply.

"Oh..." Well, Andrew didn't know that children nowadays are so easy to find information like that. Only with internet capital. "Okay, so you know that your mommy is sick."
