When Love Calls

Closure

It's been a couple days and it was the day that Zac was meeting up with his mom.

Fatima: You ready?

Zac: I don't know if I can do it.

Fatima: Baby look at me. You got this and I got you. Whatever happens, I'm right here with you.

Zac: Can we say a prayer before we go in?

Fatima: Ofc we can.

They prayed and headed into the building.

Tracy: So what's up. What you wanted to meet up for?

Zac: I don't even know why I'm here. I'm leaving.

Tracy: You weak and will always be weak. You still ain't shit and the moment you realize that the moment everybody life would be better.

Zac gets up and tries to walk away.

Fatima: No ( grabs his hand ) Zac sit down.

Zac: Why, it's obviously she still with the same bs and ain't changed at all.

Tracy: Nah let him go. He can't handle the truth.

Fatima: Baby look at me, I got you. Please sit down.

Zac takes a deep breath before speaking.

Zac: You so fucking evil. All my life I've resented you. You haven't done nothing but caused me heartache and pain. I tried to move on with my life forgetting you even existed. How could a mother abandon her own child. And tell him that he'll never be anything? Then after years and years of no contact you call and ask for money, but I'm the not shit one. Well guess what I proved you wrong. This woman right here came into my life and spoke life into me without even knowing me. Something that you are no other woman has ever done. She gave me strength and guidance. She gave me peace and comfort. She has been more to me than any woman has ever been. I was your child. You was supposed to love me, you was supposed to care for me, and be there for me. But all you ever did was look at me as nothing. You was that for Jay and Tia, Why couldn't you love me the same. Like why didn't you just aborted me if you never wanted me? ( teary eyes )

Fatima grabs his hand.

Tracy: I don't know what you crying for. And I don't know why you with him. He ain't shit and will never be shit. I loved them more because they somebody and was always somebody. I love them more because they not like you. I can't even stand the sight of you. You make me sick with your bitch ass.

Fatima: Let me tell you something. I let you sit with the disrespect too long. You see this man right here. The one you claim ain't shit but never took the time to know, instead you see his father when looking at him. I love this man with everything in me. And I be damn if I ever let anybody sit and belittle him and make him feel small in front of me, when I don't even do it. He's strong, he's powerful, and he's everything you and his sperm donor could never be. You the weak one, because what kind of mother would sit and try to break their own child down to they're nothing? You a heartless ass human for the things you've said and done to him. He was just a child and as mothers we supposed to love our children and speak life into them. I see why he was broken when I met him. Well guess what he turned out to be the opposite of what you said he'll be. Because he's a wonderful husband and not only that he's a wonderful father. And I be damn if I ever have our daughter around a bitter and evil ass person like you. Your problem is with you, everyday you wake up and look at yourself in the mirror, you don't like what you see. And that's why you try to break another person down just to feel better about yourself. But I want allow you to break this one.

Tracy: Lil girl you just as stupid ass he is. And when you learn the real him you'll see for yourself.

Fatima: I already know the real him. I got the real him. And he don't ever have to be perfect for me. He make mistakes just like you and anybody else. This man been fighting and surviving all his life. Fighting to be seen, to be heard, and for someone to just love him without wanting or needing anything in return. I love him and I don't expect him to be anything other then him. You take away all the money, houses, cars, etc in the world and I'll still choose him.

Tracy: Whatever, y'all deserve each other, two delusional ass people.

Fatima: You know what karma is a bitch. And if I was a heartless ass mf like you, I'll have you locked tf up. Yea I know everything about you and the illegal activities that you run from your house. And your son and daughter are the leader in it. All I gotta do is make one phone call and all y'all asses would be behind bars. So I would advise you to get the fuck on and never contact him again. Think it's a game, please try me and I'll show you just how ruthless I can be.

Tracy just sit there in silence and disbelief.

Fatima: Come on baby let's go. ( grabs him hand )

Zac: Wait baby, I just got one thing to say. Then we can go.

Fatima: Okay, what is it.

Zac: You will never be in my daughter life. And whenever she gets older and ask about y'all, I will tell her that y'all are dead. I hope you're happy with your life.

They get up and leave.

Zac: Baby come here. ( grabs her waist )

Fatima: That shit hurts, sitting there listening to her say those things about you. God forgive me, but she lucky I didn't go across her damn head. Nobody deserves that baby.

Zac: Baby please calm down.

Fatima: I'm calm

Zac: Not on the inside you're not.

Zac held her until she was calm

Fatima: Zac baby I promise you. She's fucking with the right one. When I told you im ready for war behind you. I mean that shit.

Zac: I know baby. ( held her )

Fatima: Here I am supposed to be comforting you and you here comforting me.

Zac: Baby we got each other. ( crying )

They both just cried in each other's arms.

Fatima: Baby I'm sorry.

Zac: For what baby?

Fatima: For even telling you to meet up with her.

Zac: I needed the closure and I got it.

Fatima: Are you okay tho?

Zac: Yes baby I'm good.

Fatima: I love you so much baby.

Zac: I love you more baby ( kisses her ) Now let's go get our daughter.

They headed back to Fatima's parents house.
