Three weeks later...
Today is Thursday which is exactly a day before Zac's birthday party. Fatima officially moved into her apartment 3 days ago and Dee slept over helping her unpack and get the place in order. The parents are coming over today to see the apartment for the first time and to also bring along the rest of the stuff that Fatima left when she moved out.
|Fatima's place|
Dee: mommy just texted, she said they're about 25min away.
Fatima: (smiles) okay great! You think they gon like it?
Dee: no I think they're gonna love it! You've done well for yourself sis, new car, new apartment... all in a matter of weeks?! To say I'm proud would be an understatement.
Fatima: (smiles) thank you sissy, I wouldn't have been able to do it without your support.
Dee: (smiles) aww you're very welcome sissy. By the way I've been meaning to ask... wassup with all these flowers? Who they from? (side eye).
Fatima: (rolls eyes) Zac.
Dee: hold the fuck on, Zac as in your boss!? Girl why is that nigga sending you flowers?
Fatima: (sighs) it's a long story but to sum it up, remember I told you that we kissed that night at the club and then that day after the gym saga?
Dee: yes and then your scary ass told him to stop pursuing you (rolls eyes).
Fatima: (chuckles) okay drop the attitude, I had my reasons.
Dee: whatever Tima, those reasons don't negate the fact that you fumbled the bag but proceed.
Fatima: anyway... so then literally a day after we went out on that smoothie date. This nigga had the audacity to meet up with my supervisor (Ms Lopez) for a booty call, but then once he found out that I knew about it he felt like shit and started apologizing by buying my flowers EVERYDAY!
Dee: wait before I give my actual reaction, is he still messing with this Lopez lady?
Fatima: no he broke things off with her that same week. Said his sole focus would be on winning my heart and making sure he never fumbles.
Dee: (smiles) awww that's soo sweet!!! He seems like a great guy and I think you should give him a chance.
Fatima: (blushes) yeah he is kinda sweet but I'm with Devon remember?
Dee: (rolls eyes) you mean the same nigga who hasn't seen or spoken to you in a week!? The same one who hasn't even come by to congratulate you on your new place? Yeah okay sis.
Fatima: (sighs) Dee don't be like that, I told you he's away on business and his boss must be working him like a slave.
Dee: (rolls eyes) whatever, anyway I can't wait to meet this Zac guy!
Fatima: you'll meet him tomorrow at the party, you're still gonna be my plus one right?
Dee: (mocking) isn't the BuSiEsT guy on the planet gonna be your date?
Fatima: I didn't ask him because he's probably gonna say that he has to work (rolls eyes).
Dee: ugh why don't y'all just call it a day and break up already!? Shit if a nigga can go a day without talking to me then consider that relationshit OVER - and yours has gone exactly 8 days without talking to you?!
Fatima: (chuckles) not relationshit but I hear you and imma talk to him about his lack of communication this weekend. So are you gonna be my plus one?
Dee: only if I can find a babysitter on time for Nyla, I'll let you know tomorrow.
