It has been 2 weeks and Fatima has been keeping an eye on Naila every single day. She has not slip up since that night. Naila has went to school and straight home, there was no sneaking out at night for the past 2 weeks. Zac on the other hand has proceeded doing business with Fatima's father. Today is a big day for Zac, his building is opened and Fatima's father opened a business school on one side and Zac is using the other side as a real estate school. Fatima was invited by Zac and of course her father.

Kathy: I sent my people over these and everything seems fine. Naila was interviewed and she's happy. There were no red flags at all.

Fatima: So the little girl is okay? Something is off Kathy, I can feel it.

Kathy: How about you tell me what this is about because you have never came to me regarding any kids at all.

Fatima: It's nothing.

Kathy: I've known you since college so throw that act out the window. What is it?

Fatima: She's my daughter. (She whispered)

Kathy: Ian's child?

Fatima: Yes.

Kathy: OMG! Fatima! I guarantee you, she's fine but please don't go there anymore. You have her up for adoption, you going there might cause you legal troubles.

Fatima: I didn't give her up, my parents did. Ian and his family were coming after us and I knew Naila could be in danger but I never wanted to give her up.

Kathy: You want her back?

Fatima: Can I get her back?

Kathy: Uhm it's a long stretch especially when she's living a good life with the perfect family. Also remember you showed up to their house, they can say you've been stalking them since.

Fatima: Fine. I'm gonna head home, I have an event to attend.

Kathy: Where are you going?

Fatima: My dad is opening a business school today.

Kathy: I was invited too, I'm Gordon's plus 1 you know he invests in everything lucrative.

Fatima: I'll see you tonight then.

A couple of hours have gone by and Fatima just finished getting ready to head out. Duke was waiting for Fatima in the car.

Fatima: You look nice.

Duke: Thanks, can you get in the car now.

Fatima: Can I get a kiss then?

Duke: Sure. (He kissed her cheek)

Fatima: Thank you. Can we stop somewhere before we get there?

Duke: Where?

Fatima: The cafe, I need to get my other bag.

Duke: We can't. I was instructed not to make any stops and time is not on our side since you decided to take forever to get ready.

Fatima: What's wrong with you?

Duke: Nothing, I have Kim waiting for me and you know your dad can talk and I don't want her feeling uncomfortable.

Fatima: Who's Kim?

Duke: My girlfriend.

Fatima: Your girlfriend? Since when?
