Lilith was rendered speechless.
On the other hand, Hayden was shocked. Embarrassed, he tried to leave but Lilith grabbed onto his arm and prevented him from doing so.
"Doctor, he is my nephew," Lilith said awkwardly. "He isn't even ten! It's my first time seeing a gynecologist and I'm a bit nervous, so I asked him to come with me."
The doctor fell into an awkward silence for about a minute before responding, "Kids these days sure grow fast."
"It's just his genes. Both his parents are really tall," Lilith explained.
"I see. So what's your issue?" the doctor asked.
"I want to get an abortion." Lilith handed the ultrasound figure to the doctor. "The baby is currently one-month-old."
"Are you married?"
"No."
"Have you thought this through?"
"Yes. I don't have money to raise this baby. Giving birth to it would only mean that it will have to suffer with me. So I might as well get rid of it as soon as I can," said Lilith explaining her situation.
Hayden was shaken to the core by her words. He had thought that she wanted an abortion because it did not work out between Ben and her. He had not expected the lack of money to be the reason behind the abortion.
Hayden remained quiet for a few seconds before dragging Lilith out of the doctor's office.
In Ylore, Avery received the result of her brain CT and fell into silence.
There was no need to show it to the doctor because she was a doctor herself.
There was an undefined bleeding inside her skull.
She sat in shock on the bench outside the CT room thinking back to whether she had been hit in the head recently, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not find an answer to the question because she had not been assaulted lately.
