"Zac no get back we got to go we got things to do places to be" Fatima said as sac kissed her neck while they were curled up in bed.
"Come on just a few minutes I won't be long" he said kissing her.
" I know." She said playfully as he looked at her weirdly.
"Exa-wait Fatima what is that supposed to mean?" Zac said as she got out of bed grabbing her robe while chuckling as he stared at her lovingly.
"Kidding, but no seriously Zac we have things to do I have to get the kids up, get ready, make sure they get ready, make it to work on time, prepare for their games, deal with these cases, and I'm trying to make partner I'm sorry but sex is the last thing on my mind right now" Fatima said stressing while getting ready as Zac walked up behind her grabbing her hand leading her to the bathroom.
" What are yo- Zac" she said instantly smiling as she looked on the mirror to see pictures he took of her without her knowledge.
"Calm down your stressing too much we got this I'll get the kids up and make sure they have everything you get ready in as much time as you need you don't have to rush and as for those cases and making partner I already know your going to do great babe.

"I love you more" she said turning around kissing him. "Thank you." She said
"You welcome now get ready Mrs.Taylor." He said smacking her on the ass laughing as she groaned.
"Mikey, Zach , Kay Kay get up!" Zac yelled banging the pot and pans together walking down the hallway. "Get up! Get up!" He said as the first one to open their door was Karter with an annoyed and tired look on her face.
"Really?" She said as he banged the pans together in her face before speaking again.
"Good morning to you too princess." He said smiling as she rolled her eyes walking back into her room.As he turned around Micheal walked out fully dressed and ready.

Fatima's Pov
I sat there shaking my head at all the stacks of legal documents and case files spread out along my desk. I went to grab one before my phone rang.
"This is Fatima Taylor. How can I assist you?"I said
'Hey it's me I just wanted to let you know that we received the verdict for the Johnson case.We won!" As my face lit up with disbelief and excitement as this was an important case for the firm and a hard one too. This could land me closer to making partner.
"That's great news! I felt we had a strong case.Thanks for letting me know."
"Thank you Fatima.Your hard work really paid off. You're amazing in the courtroom. The client said he'll be sure to refer you to close friends of his that may need your service."
"Thank you.I'm glad we were able to achieve a favorable outcome in this case. I'm also glad it's over."
"Well congratulations once again. I have no doubt you'll make partner soon.Keep up the excellent work."She said as I hung up celebrating silently.Taking a deep breathe before going back to work.
