___________

Fatima sat on the table waiting for the doctor to come in so Fatima could get her abortion

"Fatima really?" Ashley said her doctor she been fatima doctor since she was a little girl

"Please I can't!" Fatima said looking down as tears started coming down as Ashley came and hug fatima. Ashley always treated Fatima like her own. Fatima been through so much she really just wanna see her happy

"Are you sure?" Ashley ask

"Yes I can't have this baby!" Fatima said trying to get herself together

"Do your parents know?" Ashley ask

" no and please don't tell them. I don't want nobody to know that I'm here." Fatima said

"You know I would never do that. But Fatima I'm not just your doctor I'm also family. So Fatima before I do this I need for you to be sure. How about I do a sonogram?" Ashley said

"No! Because if I see or even hear anything dealing with this baby I don't think I can go through with the procedure." Fatima said

"That's a good thing. That means you really don't want the abortion!" Ashley said

"PLEASE!" Fatima scream

"I'm sorry but please I can't this is hurting me way more then you'll know but I need to do this. But if you can't push pass our personal relationship then maybe I'll go somewhere else." Fatima said getting up from the table but Ashley push her back down gently

"Okay I'm sorry. I didn't mean to push. I won't ask anymore questions!" Ashley said as she continue to talk to Fatima on what to expect after the procedure

Fatima pulled up to her apartment and park in the parking lot as she cried. She was no longer pregnant she no longer had a baby in her that she so badly wanted. But she didn't want her baby to grow up in a broken home like she did. She didn't want to raise the baby alone because she knew Ian wouldn't be apart of the baby life. Fatima was walking to her apartment when she accidentally bump into someone and everything in her hand drop but Fatima couldn't bend down cause it hurt so bad her body

"I'm so sorry I wasn't playing attention!" The guy said but Fatima said nothing as she stood face to the wall holding her stomach trying to not cry from the pain she experiencing since the bump

"Are you okay?" The guy said again

"Yes I'm fine!" Fatima said slowly but not once looking at the guy

"Well here you go. You drop this!" The guy said handing Fatima her medicine that she needs to take for the pain to go away. Fatima took the bag still not looking at the guy

"Hey I know I don't know you. But I wanted to know is you okay. From what happened two nights ago!" The guy said and that made Fatima turn around and saw the same guy that she been running into

"Umh yeah I'm sorry I'm okay and Umh thanks for helping me!" Fatima said so numb

"Are you sure you okay? Are you in danger?" He ask and Fatima just look at him.

"Im good!" And with that Fatima went into her apartment closing and locking the door. Going into the kitchen and took the medicine she was giving by her doctor. The doctor also made Fatima take two days off to get her body back right and back use to not caring a baby.

(Fast forward)

It's been two days since Fatima even saw the light outside which she was honestly okay with. She needs this little time to get her mind together to really pull herself together.

Fatima decided to make herself feel a better she wanted to remodel her living room. She moved everything to the side and throw away everything that made her think of Ian which was pretty much everything because it was so much memory that Fatima didn't think she was strong enough to keep. She then called the movers to get rid of everything in her apartment. It's cheaper than moving right now in Atlanta.

Fatima look around and saw empty just like the inside of her. She decided to sit on the floor not like she had a choice since she just threw her shit away. She brought everything knew especially a bed. Fatima thought she'll just go to a hotel until her stuff comes which would be in two days. Fatima then book everything and saw that it was 8pm and to get a moved on getting herself together. Fatima put on some music to just vibe out and not think for once's

"Ohh this my shit" Fatima said as the song Garden say it like that by Sza came on

" Need you for the old me
Need you for my sanity
Need you to remind me where I come from
Can you remind me of my gravity?
Ground me when I'm tumbling, spiraling, plummeting down to Earth
You keep me down to Earth
Call me on my bullshit
Lie to me and say my booty getting bigger even if it ain't
Love me even if it rain
Love me even if it pain you
I know I be difficult
You know I be difficult
You know it get difficult to"

Fatima sung loudly as she took a shower and got dress. Many songs played as Fatima was getting ready. Fatima decided to actually get cute and put some clothes on

"Fatima stand the fuck up!" Fatima said to herself as she look at herself in the mirror (Fatima dress is in the media)

Fatima grab her bag of clothes that she pack for the next two days and her purse. Fatima turn every light out and left but not before standing over something that was at her front door

"What he hell?!" Fatima said to herself

Fatima look down and saw that it was a bottle of wine with a small teddy bear attached to it. Fatima look around and saw nobody she pick the gift up and for some reason she knew who gave it to her. Fatima close and lock up her apartment and walk a few doors down before knocking on her neighbor door. Fatima knock for another minute and decided to just leave and catch him another time. He just don't know how much he made Fatima day.

What Fatima didn't know is that he was there all along listen to her knock as he smiled to his self getting dress as well
