|Fatima's place|
Fatima left the restaurant via the back door and took an Uber back to her place - since she left being unseen, she was not aware that her mom's water broke and that she might potentially be in labor. Not that it would've changed anything, because truthfully speaking, she had more than enough on her plate. The mere thought of possibly having slept with her brother (countless times)... made her sick, both emotionally and physically.
She arrived at her place about an hour ago and locked herself in. As of right now she was laying on the sofa in a fetal position while the tears from her eyes just kept running like a faucet. On top of all the emotions she was feeling, her phone kept ringing nonstop and it was aggravating her. Fatima got up from the couch and walked to her kitchen, she grabbed a half opened bottle of wine from the fridge and drank it up all in one go.
She walked back into the living room and checked the caller ID - it was Shanice. There were also tons of missed calls and texts from Dee and Marcus but none from Zac, which was understandable because he must be hurt the most by Marcus' revelation. Fatima simply decided to turn her phone off and cuddle up with moomie but she was nowhere to be found - strange...

|Hospital|
-Toya got wheeled into back about an hour ago but they are still awaiting feedback from the doctor-
{an:/ they dropped Nyla off at her dad's place}
Shanice: (hanging up her phone) she's still not picking up. I think she turned it off because it's going straight to voice-mail.
Marcus: (sighs) thank you for trying Shanice. I think it's best that we give her some time to cool off, we all know how Tima likes to shut the world out when she's going through something.
Dee: -silent- (burning a hole into her father's face).
Marcus: Deanna if you have something to say, speak!
Dee: do you seriously believe that Zac is your son?
Marcus: (shrugs) I mean there's no way of knowing without confirmation from his mother, so at this point it's nothing but an assumption.
Dee: (sucks her teeth) SO THEN WHY THE FUCK-
Marcus: (stern) watch your mouth young lady! I'm still your father.
Dee: (sighs deeply) I'm sorry... daddy why did you think that it was a good idea to just blurt out an ASSUMPTION like that!!? Like did you even take the time to think about Fatima and how this unproven assumption could affect her relationship with Zac?
Marcus: (drops his head in shame) I'm sorry and you're right. I didn't even mean for it to come out like that, I guess I was just thinking out loud.
Dee: I'm not the one who's owed an apology.
Marcus: I know that Dee and I'm gonna talk to her once she calms down.
Shanice: uhm... on a lighter note. Were there any updates from the Dr while I was out?
Marcus: (shakes his head) they just said that we have to wait.
Dee: well since we have time... daddy, how do you even know Zac's mother? What's the story?

|Golda's house|
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
Golda: who the hell is knocking on my door like the police. (Yells) who is it?
Zac: it's me!
Golda: (opens the door) Zac I'm glad that you're out but it's not a good idea for you to be-
