Fatima makes her way back downstairs.
Fatima: Hey mama you good?
Anita: Yes baby I'm good. Are you good?
Fatima: I'm okay.
Anita: Fatima, you're my daughter and I know when somethings wrong so talk to me. What's wrong baby.
Fatima It's Zac. He blames himself for what happened. In fact he blames himself for everything that goes wrong in both our lives.
Anita: Why
Fatima: Because of the wrong he's done in his past.
Anita: That's not good.
Fatima: It's not, and I tell him that it's not his fault. Ma I love that man and it isn't anything that I wouldn't do to see him happy. Yes he's made mistakes but we all have. I just hate seeing him go through emotions because he feel as tho he's the blame.
Anita: Zac is a good man. And I love how he loves you. And he's so in tune with his emotions and feelings. Which is something today's society of men lacks.
Fatima: And that's what makes me love him even more, his heart is pure. He's the only man to ever get me this deep in love. I know my husband and I know that he's not only. Yes he's in tune with his emotions but he also hides behind his feelings, especially when he doesn't want me to worry about him.
Anita: You should talk to him about seeing a therapist.
Fatima: Ima see about setting up an appointment with our therapist.
Anita: That'll be a good thing. It can help the both of you. Ti you just went through something traumatic. I can only imagine how hard it is for you.
Fatima: So traumatic. But I got two babies to take care of. So I have to be strong for them. They need both Zac and I. And if we're not okay, how can we be good for them.
Anita: You're right , and everything will work itself out.
Fatima: It will be, this is just a test for a testimony.
Anita: I'm so proud of you. You're so strong and wise. In fact, I'm proud of all of you. It just makes me feel like I've done my job as a parent.
Fatima: You did what you needed to do. You and dad gave us the best life y'all could possibly give us. And I don't know what I can do to ever repay you for all that you've done.
Anita: Baby you do it everyday. You're my child, it was my job and responsibility to nurture, and raise y'all. Now what y'all did with it was on y'all. As parents we feel like we fail because of how our child(ren) turns out. But we gotta realize that, it's not us, it's the things that the child allow to influence their life, decisions, and behavior. But y'all turn out to be more than just the thing you fat and I placed inside you all, Look at y'all. You have your own businesses and doing so good.
Fatima: Thank you mama. And I will now place what you've taught me, into my children.
Anita: I love you baby.
Fatima: I love you too mama. I'll be right back.
Fatima went upstairs and called their therapist.
Faith: Hello!
Fatima: Hey Dr.Faith this is Fatima.
Faith: Hey Fatima, how are you?
Fatima: I've been better.
Faith: Well what do I owe the pleasure of this phone call?
Fatima: I was calling to see if you have any openings.
Faith: I actually have one for 3 today?
Fatima: Okay, Can you see Zac and I?
Faith: I can.
Fatima: Thank you so much.
Faith: You're welcome. See you then.
Fatima hangs up and Zac calls.
Fatima: Hey handsome.
Zac: Hey beautiful. What are you doing?
Fatima: Nothing much just laying across the bed missing you.
Zac: Im missing you too baby.
Fatima: So I had a talk with mama, and she suggested that we go see our therapist.
Zac: And how do you feel about it?
Fatima: I feel like we should. We just experience something turmeric and I know you. And I know that you're scared and that you still blame yourself.
Zac: Silent
Fatima: Baby say something.
Zac: Fatima, baby I love you. And if you want to do it then I'm down for doing it.
Fatima: I just don't like seeing you hurt baby, It breaks my heart.
Zac: And I don't like seeing you hurt either so I think it'll be good for the both of us.
Fatima: Mama said the same thing.
Zac: Where my babies at?
Fatima: Sleep. Well baby boy is. Ava downstairs watching Tv with mama.
Zac: Well I'll be home in another hour. I just wanted to check on y'all.
Fatima: I can't wait so just can just hold me in your arms.
Zac: See you soon baby. I love you.
Fatima: I love you more baby.
They hang up and Fatima goes back downstairs.
Anita: Everything okay?
Fatima: Yes ma'am. I talked to our therapist and we go in today at 3.
Anita: That's good.
Fatima: I see she's sleep?
