How could she hide this from me? Why would she hide this from me? If you were pregnant wouldn't you be ecstatic and ready to tell everyone including the most important person that helped you conceive that you were expecting? Was she unhappy with me?

I didn't even stress this much with Jenna. I was starting to get a headache with all these questions bombarding my head. I was still in the bathroom contemplating if I should tell her or not.

Deciding to keep it to myself, I opened the bathroom door with the bag in my hand to be met with Robyn about to knock on the door.

"I needed to use the bathroom." She said almost inaudibly, hesitantly putting her arm down.

Her voice hoarse and shaky. She didn't even take a glimpse in my direction. She kept her head down the whole time as I stood in front of her.

Taking one last look at her, I released a sigh taking a step to the right, walking out of the room and down the stairs. I still had my keys in my pocket so I disposed the garbage bag, got in my car and drove off.

"Mom, moooooom!!!?"

"Do you pay the bills in this house?" She asked walking out of the kitchen with a rag in her left hand. I stared at her confused

"No, what d-."

"Then stop yelling, storming and yelling in here like you own the place."

I sucked my teeth

"Mom she's pregnant."

She mumbled something under her breath that I couldn't quite comprehend, but I just shook it off

"She's pregnant and she didn't even tell me." I frowned

"Maybe she's scared Matty, she's still young and still has her whole life ahead of her and now she's going to be held back by a child, you have to understand where she is coming from sweetheart." She said her eyes filled with sympathy

"But that doesn't give me a valid reasoning on why she would just ignore me like i'm Casper the friendly damn fucking ghost or some shit."

"Watch your mouth boy, you are not to old to get your ass whooped," she came and slapped the side of my head, real hard I'll tell ya 

"Give her some time and don't tell her you know, when she's ready to tell you then she'll tell you. Just be patient with her."

"Okay ma, I'll take your advice."

"Of course you were going to take it, you came over here and told me your problem which your dumb ass should have been figured out, the least I could do is help you sweetie."

"Thanks mom, now what are you cooking." I said walking to the kitchen

"Nothing that concerns you or any other person except for me, my husband, and later on the bed if you catch my drift." She said winking my way.

"Oh mom why, I don't want to imagine that." I said shaking my head of all ideas

"Well how do you think you got here?"

"Mom, I'll catch you later, love you!" I said speed walking to the front door

"Love you too baby, drive safe!" she chuckled
