Fatima was zoned out until she heard her mother calling her name. Fatima was having a dream that she announced to her and Zac's family and friends that she was expecting a baby. "Hey baby," Fatima's mother said.

"Hey mama," she said back sad. "What's wrong," she rubbed her daughter back while she took a seat next to her. "I was daydreaming about me telling everybody that I was pregnant," she said kinda happy.

The party is still going on and everybody was doing their own thing. "Baby, why you sound sad about it. You have a lot of time to get pregnant. You don't have to think about having a baby now," her mom said.

Fatima turns her head to her mom. "Mama, Zac is all I can think about right now. Seeing him happy that he's gonna be a daddy melted my heart," she said.

"Fatima baby Zac is not worried about you having his child now. Y'all only been married for a year. Now I'm not saying that you shouldn't but it's your body and you are a grown woman, but don't just be having a baby because you want Zac to be happy," her mom said getting up from the chair.

"You think about it for a few days and talk to Zac and see what he wants to do and if y'all both on the same page to have a baby then have the baby. But don't rush anything because this life is not going anywhere," her mom said kissing her cheek and walking away.

Fatima knew her mom was right because if she's ready Zac may not be ready to have a baby and they never talked about having kids anyways. So after the party Zac and Fatima are going on a little vacation. The party finally ended and everybody cleaned up and they all went home.

Crystal's Home

Crystal was now just getting in her house when she heard she got a notification on her phone. It was a text message from her boyfriend. She texted him back letting him know that she made it home and that he can stop by. Before he gets there she goes upstairs to take a shower and 20 minutes later she heard her doorbell ring.

She goes to get the door and she sees him with a bouquet of red roses one of her favorite flowers.

"Ooh baby you shouldn't have. Thank you so much," she said kissing him on the lips.

Devale looks at her smiling. "You welcome baby." She lets him in and they walks to the living room.

Crystal's living room is bigger than any room in her house. Her and Devale been dating for 2 years now and none of their family and friends know about it. They trying to find the right time to say something.

Crystal walks to her liquor cabinet to get them some drinks. She grabs a wine glass for her and a Hennessy glass for Devale. She walks back to the couch and she sits down.

They both are looking at each other neither saying a word until Crystal cleared her throat.  "I'm sorry baby, how did you love the party," she said handing him his glass of Hennessy.
