The Next Week...."Mommy is that my baby sister on there?" Amir asked watching the little tiny baby on the screen.
"We don't know if it's a girl yet buddy, mommy is only 12 weeks pregnant. " Zac explained to him. "We have 6 more months to go before the baby comes."
"Zachary, we'll know the baby's gender by then." Fatima laughed, "baby give us a few weeks and mommy will tell you if it's a brother or sister."
"I'm the only boy y'all can't replace me." Amir pouts.
"Baby we would never replace you no matter the gender of your sibling we will still love you both." Fatima rubbed his shoulder.
"Y'all promise?"
"We promise. " they say in unison.
"Okay good because I fight kids." Amir says.
"You fight kids son?" Zac bust out laughing. "What is wrong with your boy?" He asked Fatima and they laughed.
"Aw he's cute, how old is he?" the doctor said with a chuckle as she wrapped up Fatima's exam.
"Thank you, he's 6." Fatima smiled, "wouldn't trade him for the world."
"Me either." Zac hugged him. "Changed my life so much."
............
Out in the car the parking lot they were headed to the car when a woman stopped Fatima.
"Hi, I'm sorry to bother you and your family I just wanted to know if I can get a pic- Zac?" The woman took a look at him and was shocked. "You two are um dating?"
"Not that it's any of your business, but yes we are." Zac grabbed Fatima's hand.
"But your ... and she's ... nevermind, um Fatima, can I get a picture please?" The woman asked.
"Naw she's good, come on baby." Zac said and Fatima looked at him crazy.
"Of course you can get a picture." Fatima says. "Babe take the picture please."
"Fatima I'm not doing that shit you clearly see I'm uncomfortable, let's go." Zac tells her.
"And I get that but bab-"
"Now Fatima!" He said with a little base.
"Here girl, we can just take a selfie." Fatima rolled her eyes. "Fucking asshole," she said under her breath about Zac.
"Thank you so much girl." The woman said. "And Zac I'm really sorry, if that means anything."
"It doesn't, bye Ciara." Zac said. "Come on Mir, let's get you in the car." Zac took Amir's hand and they got in the car. When Fatima realized he didn't open her door for her she knew he was upset.
"What was that?" Fatima asked him.
Zac was just looking straight ahead, eyes on the road, didn't answer her question.
"You don't hear me talking?" Fatima asked him and he continued to ignore her.
"Okay," she nods.
"Daddy, can we get pizza?" Amir asked.
"Yeah man I got you." Zac answered and if looks could kill Fatima would've sliced him up.
"Bet" she smirked.
They pulled up to the pizza spot.
"Mir, what kind of pizza do you want?" Zac asked him.
"Pepperoni with extra cheese." Amir says.
