Recap

While at the office Zac gets a call from his mom. She has officially moved to Atlanta and has been staying with Zac and Fatima until the baby is born. Zac found her a nice ranch home about 30 minutes away from where they lived.

"Hey Mom, what's up?" asked Zac.

"Fatima's water broke."

***************************************

Fatima has made it to the hospital. Zac's mom told Zac to meet them there.

"Where is Zac?" Fatima kept asking.

"He's on his way," Ms. Tam assured her.

They get Fatima in a room and start checking her out. Making sure her vitals are normal during pregnancy.

"Zac still is not here. Where is he?" Fatima starts to panic.

Ms. Tam steps out of the room to call Zac when he finally shows up.

"Thank God you're here. She's panicking," said Tam.

"Thanks, Mom, I got it from here."

"Okay. I will be in the lobby."

Zac runs into the room with Fatima, "Hey babe, I'm here."

She starts to calm down. "Call my father, please."

While the doctors are attending to Fatima, Zac gets her phone and steps out to call her dad.

"Mr. Wilson, this is Zac."

"Has something happened to Fatima?" He interrupted.

"No, well, she's in labor."

Pastor Fred is excited. "Can I come down to the hospital?"

"Yes, we're at Georgia Medical. Alright, I have to go," Zac rushes off the phone and gets back to Fatima.

"Did you call him?" Asked Fatima.

"Yes, he's on his way."

Once Pastor Fred got the news, he immediately starts getting ready. Patrick was staying at a friend's house. He texts him that he is about to be an uncle. Then he decided to text his estranged wife to let her know Fatima was about to have the baby.

He had no clue where she was. He hadn't seen or heard from her in several weeks.

When she received the text, she was overjoyed. All the madness that she had over Fatima being married and getting pregnant left.

She told her friend, and she convinced Pat to go.

"But what if she doesn't want me there?"

"Then let her tell you that. A girl needs her mom at this time. If you don't go you will regret, it." Said the friend.

Pat started packing her things and putting thing them in the car. Thirty minutes later she was ready to leave. Savannah is about a 3 1/2-hour drive. Her friend offered to drive her because she knew she was in no shape to drive on her own.

Back to the hospital

Her dad had arrived but was told that Fatima was already in labor, so he sat in the lobby with Tamela. He spoke to her and then they sat quite several minutes before having small talk.

In the meantime, Zac is trying to calm his frantic wife while getting her to push the baby out.

Moments later, Baby Taylor arrived.

The nurse cleans the baby up and hands her to her mom. They allow them a moment to bond before taking her to the nursery to get fully checked.

"Babe, can you believe you just had a whole baby?" Zac asked in tears of joy. "I am a dad."
