I couldn't get Jenay off my mind. When she just brushed me off that day it made me see she didn't want me. She didn't love me anymore. I wanted Jenay. I wanted to be there. She didn't want that though. And it was killing me that Nick was there.

I scrolled through my IG when a text message notification popped up at the top of my screen.

Jenay: I have an ultrasound at 12:30 tomorrow. You should come thru😶

Odell: I'll be there.

I'm not gone front. When Jenay sent me that I could've ran a marathon. Besides from her occasional instagram posts

I haven't been updated at all.

She's five months and I haven't seen her at all. I've tried dozens of times. LaLa ass always covers for her by saying she's out. I was beginning to lose hope. It was wrong what she was doing. At least I would be able to talk to her with out her running away. Maybe I could persuade her into being reasonable. I couldn't wait.

Jenay POV

This ultrasound appointment was pretty important. It was the day they would be able to give me a little bit of clarity on the gender. Although it isn't always right. You get other ultrasounds to confirm. I wanted Nick to be there but he said Odell should be the first to know since he's "missed out on the process."

I drove myself to the appointment. To my surprise Odell was already there.
He was leaning on the side of his Jeep when he looked up from his phone and saw me.

 "You're growing

"You're growing."

"Yea. I am." I sighed.
It was pretty awkward being there with him. He just stopped me in the hall.

"Look, I know you're mad at me. But I've apologized a trillion times. That gives you no reason to bring our kid into it. I deserve to be there and you know it."

"Can we just go in."

"I want to make it clear to you that I'm here and I'm staying. Point blank period. I've already missed so much.
My family has been wondering about you and the baby-"

"You told them!"

"What do you mean I told them? They love you Jenay, they always have but they want to see you. It's been almost 2 years."

"Can we just go in now please."

"Only if you promise to cooperate with me and not get LaLa to make up a dumbass lie."

"Fine."

He started cheesing hard as fuck. He was trying to get me to laugh. But the most he was getting was a playful eye roll.
I was still mad at him though.

We walked into the room and I payed back on the little chair. Odell sat by me. I lifted up my shirt. I could feel Odell's eyes staring hard as fuck at my belly. He hasn't seen me so I assume it's new to him to see me in this condition.
The tech squirted the goo on my tummy.
She turned up the volume.
"That is the heartbeat."
I could see Odell's smile.
"Now, you guys are here to find out the gender, correct?"

"Yeah." We said in unison.
I didn't care about what gender the baby was I just wanted it to be healthy.

"Well this is really a rough estimate, but it looks like a boy right now." Said the tech.

We both looked at each other.

"Now this can always change so you should come back in probably two to three weeks from now just for confirmation."

"Are those the feet?!" Asked Odell. I could see he was totally fascinated.

"yes, these are the feet and those are the legs" said the tech.
She started wiping the goo off of my stomach.
I pulled my shirt back down and we headed outside.

"Jenay. I just wanna say that I'm happy you invited me to this appointment."

"You're welcome."

"I want to come down to my place. My parents are in town."

"I don't know-"

"I really want you to come."
