Recap
"Thanks for coming.!" Fatima said as Zac help her off the ground"Shorty you don't gotta thank me. Let's go to the movies and eat candy and not really watch the movie.!" Zac said trying to cheer her up and it work a little
"Please.!" Was all Fatima said as Zac pulled her into a hug and kiss her forehead.
_______"So what wrong? Come on talk to me!" Zac said to fatima as they sat on her couch with a glass of wine and of course Zac had a glass of Hennessy
"Just family problems. I don't get my family sometimes, sometimes they do stuff to hurt me." Fatima said which she couldn't believe she's even opening up to him.
"Meaning! Come on I'm here with you let it out." Zac said
"That's the thing I don't know how. I see red a lot and very fast and I try not to get to that point. All my life my siblings treated me very differently my mom she was an okay mother never was to attach to her and once I hit an age I understood why-
"You hit the teenager stage?"
"No I just learned the truth at a young age that's all." Fatima said
"Which was?" Zac ask
"Why do you ask a lot of questions? I mean you different I can tell you asking questions not to be nosy but because you care. Why is that?" Fatima ask looking at Zac weird she still haven't figured him out
"Is that a bad thing?" Zac ask
"Don't do that. Don't answer a question with a question tell me your story." Fatima said and Zac just sigh but didn't answer the question
"So you can know things about me, but I can't know things about you?" Fatima ask
"It's not that at all, well look when I was young I was dumb!" Zac explained
"Weren't we all.!" Fatima said as they both crack a smile
"Yes and well I made a dumb mistake in trusting my brother and that almost costed me my freedom and every since then I got my life back on track and started asking more questions and becoming more strict on who's around me." Zac said
"Mhm you seems like a person that been done wrong by the person close to ya." Fatima said
"I could say the same thing to you.!" Zac said back to Fatima
"Yeah but we aren't talking about me." Fatima said
"That's because every time we do you change the subject or you speak in riddles. What's wrong with me getting to know you. Not the outside fatima but the inside fatima." Zac said
"There's nothing wrong with getting to know me. It's just something I can't talk to you about." Fatima said
"Like when that cop did a dope drop when we were in the car?!" Zac pointed out
"I don't know what you're talking about." Fatima said
"Yeah right." And they both started laughing but was cut off by Zac phone
"I got to take this. It's getting late so I should probably head out." Zac told fatima
Zac and Fatima hug once they were at her front door. Fatima watch as Zac went to his apartment. It's something about him that she can't figure out. Fatima went back to her couch not before realizing that he forgot his jacket. Fatima grab his jacket before heading towards her front door towards his. Fatima was about to knock before she heard Zac talking to someone which was weird because she didn't see anyone at Zac door just a minute ago.
"You not supposed to fall in love with her.!" Fatima heard a guy say
Fatima press her ear closer to the door which was left crack
"I'm not falling for her. So what if I hit a couple of times that's not going to mess up my assignment.!" Zac said
"You have one more month to crack her about her family business and the people her family have killed or you off the case. You have 48 hours to at least give me something so we can get a search warrant. Do I make myself clear detective.!" The man said
"Yes chief!" Zac replied
Fatima couldn't believe what she just heard. She ran to her apartment and slam the door hard she saw red. Fatima was also thankful she didn't tell him anything but if he would've press the issue fatima probably would've cried and told Zac all of her family secrets but now she found out that she's getting played again. Nope not this time two can play that game
