When It Works

Double The Trouble, Double The Pain

Zac and Fatima have been home with the twins alone a little over three months the Taylor residence is finally quiet except the frequent cries of the babies. Mariah and Troy along with their baby is still there but they are literally no problem Troy works long hours and Mariah and Fatima are so used to being in the same house it is normal. Everyone is shocked at how fast Fatima has bounced backed physically. She has jumped into motherhood without a problem it came natural. Zac hasn't been off work but he has not half stepped one bit. He ends his days quickly with no extra meetings he's always home by six o'clock. Life with twins hasn't been so hard but it was most definitely an adjustment. 

"Gorgeous, where ya at?" Zac yelled as he walked through the door.

"In the kitchen" Fatima answers

"Damn" 

"What's all that for?" Fatima asked smiling

"You lookin fuckin amazin. You sure you just had twins a few months ago" he asked eyeballing Fatima 

"Nigga, wasn't shit stopping me from getting this body back right" 

"Shit was it ever wrong" Zac said as he walked up on her and giving her a kiss. Wrapped in his arms Fatima bushed.

"You think you smooth I'm  still mad" Fatima said kissing him back. 

"Timmmmaaaaaa ok" 

Last week Fatima went to surprise Zac at his office and he found himself in yet another situation with a thirsty female. This time it was his receptionist. Zac wasn't crazy enough to allow anything to happen between him and another woman, but he always gave people too much leeway. Fatima stood in the doorway and heard the exchange, so she wasn't too mad at Zac she was annoyed. She knew her man was entirely too nice to people and it pissed her off, since he once called her friendly

Flashback: Last week

"Mr. Taylor I'm leaving, is there anything else I can do?" Kira his receptionist asked approaching his desk

"No it's fine you can go ahead I'm actually leaving too" he responded

"You sure Mr. Taylor I think there is something I forgot" Kira said a she unbuttoned her blouse? Without looking up Zac responded.

"Well if you know you forgot it go do it then leave Kira" finally looking up 

"Tats what I'm trying to do now" she said twirling his chair facing him to her exposed breast. Before responding he paused and shook his head

"Girl if you don't get out my office, you've met Fatima right?" 

"Yes and so what?"

"So you wanna die, like cover up those premature ass titties and get out" 

"So you don't want me" pushing the door open Fatima stood a second before making her presence known.

"No bitch and before I'm on yo ass I advise you leave and pack your shit on yo way out" Fatima said walking in. As Zac stood to his feet

"Fa fa-Fatima it's not what it looks like. I was just" Kira stumbled over her words as she buttoned her shirt

"You was just leaving and packing yo shit before I change my mind bout not whoopin yo ass. Get out" Fatima said smacking Kira upside the head walking past "ditzy hoe" 

"Baby I"

"Zac just shut the fuck up. I heard, but if you don't start slapping bitches for trying you ima slap you" Zac sat quiet 

" Wassup gorgeous what you doing here, I'm on my way out" 

"I came to give you some pussy, but let's go Nigga"

"Wait wait wait wait wait waaaaaaaaiiiiiiiittttt, give it to me" Zac said 

"Nigga please, come on Mr. friendly. Nice ass" she scoffed

"Tima yo want me to punch every woman that come at me" his question almost felt like an insult

"Uuuhhh yea. You'd expect me to throw my left hand in a nigga face ad go off. Just save it Nigga and let's go I'm hungry" 

They leave and have dinner just as dinner is over Zac leaves to use the restroom. When a man waking into the restaurant spots Fatima 

"You're way too gorgeous to be sitting alone" the man cooed 

"I'm not" Fatima replied dryly

"Well can I have a minute of your time before your company comes back?" He asked grinning at Fatima. Zac has now turned the corner and watching the exchange he walks a little closer to hear what's being said.

"No you cannot, my man just went to the bathroom he'll be back soon" she said giving the man no attention

"He should watch where he leaves you someone might snatch you up" 

Frustrated Fatima leans with both elbows on the table and her hands closed " Sir please leave he's crazy" 

"Me too. Can I have your number" he asked pushing his luck 

"Mm Mm he kill people" she answered pulling out her phone to text Zac 

Zac is walking up to the table he and fatima lock eyes. 

"They ain't stop making guns when they made hi-" Stopped mid sentence Zac grabbed the man by the throat keeping quiet as best he could

"You sure this what you wanna do tonight? Didn't she say leave her alone?" Struggling to speak the man nodded yes

"Then get the fuck on and find something to do that will keep you alive for the night" Zac said letting him go? Zac pays the bill and they leave. 

"See nigga is it so hard to just tell people right away you got somebody? I mean he ain't give a fuck but still. Yo ass be eatin it up smiling and shit" Fatima said as Zac closed her door. He shook his head and got into the car.

"Gorgeous am I trippin or has that car been everywhere we have since we left my office?" Zac signaled his head towards the car

"I noticed it too, that's why Dre and Jalen are parked behind it" Zac laughs a little she's always a step ahead

"Damn you good because I just sent a text to Murdock, Marcus still got healing to do" 

"Mhm gotta be quicker than that babe" 

The pair pulled off and so did the car with Dre and jalen not far behind. Instead of going home the head to the condo. Now I'm the parking lot all three cars park Zac and Fatima exits the car and head to the elevator. The car door opens but is greeted by Jalen. 

"Fuck you doin?" He asked as his pistol touched the man's nose
