DESTINED

Chapter 16

Zac took another shot still waiting for a response from his wife. Everyone was sitting in suspense.

Fatima: You are-

Naila: You are Mr Zac.

Madam: Hush little one.

Naila: Sorry.

Mr Wilson: Not here, let's just enjoy our meal.

Zac: Let her answer, what am I to her then?

Fatima: When did we get here? We were fine 1 hour ago.

Duke: I told you about Ian.

Fatima: Can we just finish this lovely lunch?

Zac: I'm full. I'll order an Uber so don't worry.

Zac stood up, he took his crutches and left the restaurant. He was waiting outside for an Uber.

Duke: I'm sorry for the way I came at you. It's just that I have never seen her with anyone else.

Zac: It's cool bro.

Duke: Fatima and Ian have been like this since they got together. Every time she sees him, she becomes soft. Look at it this way, at least she didn't sleep with him.

Zac: At least? First I heard my wife literally flirting with another man and now I must watch her take my daughter to that man?

Duke: Let her do what she wants. That's up to her.

Zac: And that's why I'm leaving.

Duke: Let me drive you man.

Zac: Okay.

Back in the restaurant

Mrs Wilson: Ian is going to ruin your relationship, you can't keep doing this.

Fatima: I'm not doing anything. This is for Naila.

Mrs Wilson: Fatima don't do it.

Naila: I want to see my dad.

Fatima: We are.

Mrs Wilson: Don't do it Fatima.

Mr Wilson: I don't know what Ian has on you but you can't keep allowing him to keep making you weak.

Fatima: Why do you hate him so much? His family might have done some bad things but he has always been good to me and he has never hurt me.

Madam: Are you still in love with him?

Fatima: I'm not having this conversation anymore.

Madam: It's fine but it looked like Zac can see that you still love Ian. You not acknowledging him in Naila's life really hurt him.

Naila: But he's not my dad though so why is he hurt?

Madam: Does she talk this much? How about you play with your phone and eat the ice cream.

Mrs Wilson: She talks like Fatima.

Mr Wilson: Let her do whatever she wants, I'm tired of reprimanding her about Ian, I've been doing that for 8 years.

Fatima: Thank you. I was thinking we spend the night at the house.

Naila: I get to sleep in your old room?

Fatima: Yes.

It's been a couple of hours, Zac was at the hotel that he just booked to rest and think about things. He has tried calling Fatima or Naila but none of them are answering. Duke made sure Zac was good before he went back to the Wilson home.
