Upstairs

Zac has ran them a hot bath so that they could relax from the long night they just had.  Fatima gets in and laid her head back on his chest.

Zac: Baby.

Fatima: Yes?

Zac: What's going on in that head of yours?

Fatima: I'm just thinking.

Zac: You're worried about her aren't you?

Fatima: I just know my sister and I know when she's there it's not good.

Zac: What you mean?

Fatima: Let's just say it's not a good place to be for anyone.

Zac: You think she's going to be okay?

Fatima: I hope so. I just don't want her to go back to that place.

Zac: Baby all we can do for her is pray for her and hope for the better. She's got a group of strong women standing beside her.

Fatima: And about this morning. I'm owe you an apology, for how I reacted. I shouldn't have reacted in that manner, and I'm sorry.

Zac: Baby you don't have to apologize, And I don't want you to ever think that I will hurt you like that, because I wouldn't.

Fatima: I know you wouldn't. It's just that after having Zion, I just being going through all these emotions especially after what happened. And we haven't had sex since before had him. I don't want you to feel like I'm neglecting your needs.

Zac: Baby sex isn't what I'm focused on right now. You healing not only physically but also mentally and emotionally is all I'm focused on right now. I need you to be okay.

Fatima: And appreciate that.

Zac: Ti, I love you and our children more than anything in this world. And I want us to always be honest with each other no matter how ugly it is.

Fatima: Honestly is all I'll ever expect baby you know that.

Zac: So, about this morning. I know that I was wrong. And I apologize for not calling you to check in with you, That's on me. But truth is-

Fatima: Shhh, baby whatever it is doesn't matters. Let's just live in this moment right here, tonight was enough. I just wanna relax and enjoy this time with my husband.  Can we do that?

Zac: Yes baby we can.

They relaxed and talked.

Zac: Baby you remember that plane ride.

Fatima: How could I not. Your ass was calling my name. ( laughing )

Zac: Ummm, that would be you.

Fatima: I might was but that was the day I got pregnant with baby boy. Then again that whole trip was wild, I could've gotten pregnant anytime.

Zac: It definitely one for the books.

Fatima: I enjoyed myself with everybody. It was a vibe and a much needed one.

Zac: I did as well. Woww, come to think about it, it was when Aisha and Mike got married.

Fatima: Damn, it sure was. I just hate this for the both of them. It just could've been handled differently.

Zac: You right it could have.

Fatima: I never want my sister to hurt.

Zac: No sister does. But she's grown and she has her own life to live. I just feel like it was nobody business but there's.

Fatima: You right it wasn't anyone business but there's.

Zac: That's what happens when liquor and emotions mix.

Fatima: Facts.

They got out the tub, showered, did there nightly routine, and got in the bed.

Zac: Its been a long night. I guess will start over in the morning.

Fatima: You can say that again.

Zac: Goodnight my queen. I love you

Fatima: Goodnight my king, I love you too.

They embraced each other with a kiss and drifted off to sleep.
