DESTINED

Chapter 15

It's the next day Zac is having breakfast with Naila, Fatima has been in a mood after they left the hospital and she hasn't said a single word to Zac.

Zac: Did you have fun last night with your mom?

Naila: Yes, we had lots of sushi and milkshakes big as the juice jug

Zac: A jug.

Naila: You made her mad.

Zac: I didn't. She's fine and we're fine.

Naila: Okay. Can I tell you something? Please don't tell Tima.

Zac: Of course. What's up?

Naila: I really miss my parents and my brother.

Zac: Oh so -

Naila: I want to see them but I don't want Tima to get mad.

Zac: She won't. We will talk to her.

Fatima: My parents called, we have to go to Washington. The jet will be here in 2 hours.

Zac: Why? I thought you said -

Fatima: That I never want to see them, yes but this is important. My cousin Marilyn hasn't been home or been contacted in a week.

Zac: Maybe she's on vacation.

Fatima: She's not.

Naila: We're going to D.C?

Fatima: Yes.

Naila: Will I be able to see my parents and brother?

Fatima: No. I have to make a couple of call and then we'll be off.

Naila: Why can't I see them?

Fatima: Because I said so. Pack up your things.

Zac: So we just leave this beautiful suite to go look for a grown woman?

Fatima: If you want to stay then stay but I'm going to find my cousin.

Zac: I was just asking.

5 hours later they were landing in D.C. Tiger went to pick them up from the airport and drove them to the Wilson home. When they arrived, Naila was nervous to finally meet her grandparents, Zac on the other hand was scared that he married Fatima when he was warned to stay away.

Mrs Wilson: Welcome to my home Zac.

Mr Wilson came into view and Naila ran into his arms.

Naila: Uncle Joey!!

Mr Wilson: Hey butter cup.

Mrs Wilson: What's happening here?

Fatima: I also want to know.

Mr Wilson: That's between my little girl and me, right butter cup?

Naila: Yes.

Duke: I think it's time we get to why they are here?

Mr Wilson: Why are you here? (Talking to Zac)

Zac: Uhm, I got injured and Fatima asked to help me so she said I must come with her.

Mrs Wilson: We'll talk about that later, our worry is Marilyn.

Fatima: Naila baby I'll need you to go play with your iPad in that room over there while the grown ups talk.
