Chapter 219
1/2
Olivia felt really sick right after she woke up from a scary dream. It was
so bad she thought she might throw up, but after rushing to the
bathroom, the feeling quickly went away.
Tyler, noticing she was covering her mouth, asked, âDo you feel better
now?â
Olivia tried her best to suppress the sick feeling. âI dreamed of a child
chasing me.â
She was still trying to catch her breath, and Tyler could see she was
really scared.
âWhat did the child look like?â he asked, with the moonlight shining on
them.
Olivia didnât know much. The child seemed light-skinned and a bit
chubby. She couldn't see his face, but she was scared of him.
Tyler could tell she didnât want to talk much about it, so he suggested,
âLetâs visit the doctor tomorrow, maybe get something to make you feel
better.â
Olivia just nodded, too tired to say anything.
He hugged her again, getting her belly to stay close to him.
She didnât have the energy to pull away. After all, Tyler was the father
of her child. She closed her eyes
and leaned into him.
The next day, they went to the doctor. While Olivia lay in the room for
the ultrasound, the doctor moved the device over her belly, showing
black and white spots on the screen.
Tyler watched quietly from the side.
The doctor pointed to a spot that had gotten bigger and said, âHere's
your baby. It's grown a lot and looks good.â
Tyler looked at the screen. Although there was not much expression on
his face, there seemed to be a faint smile lingering.
âIt's twice as big as last time.â
It was amazing how two people could create something like that.
Olivia had been scared because of her dream, but now she wanted to
see the baby. âCan I see?â she
asked.
âSure, sit up,â the doctor said.
The nurse helped Olivia sit so she could see the screen. There, in her
belly, was the tiny baby.
Something about seeing it melted Olivia's heart.
âThe baby is stable now, don't worry,â the doctor assured her.

Hearing that, Olivia felt relieved. She lay back down.
âMm-hmm, sheâs been feeling a bit better lately,â Tyler added.
âIt's going to be a lively one.â The doctor chuckled.
Tyler seemed to start liking the idea of the baby more. He sounded
more excited when he talked about

Olive gripped the blanket, just staring at the ceiling.
When all was done, they headed to the car. Tyler asked, âWould you
like some water?â
After the check-up, she drank a lot of water, so she shook her head.
âIt's alright, Tyler.â
âAlright.â Tyler could tell she was tired, especially since she hadn't slept
well. âLetâs go rest.â He then covered her with a blanket, making sure
she was warm.
The car was chilly, but Olivia stayed still, letting him take care of her.

Just then, Naomi called. She knew about the check-up and wanted to
know how it went. Tyler was in a good mood and answered with a
smile.
âMmâhmm, the child is growing well and is healthy. Olivia isnât feeling
as sick anymore, so don't worry. She'll have another checkâup next
month.â
âOkay,â Naomi replied.
âTake care of yourself.â
