love at first sight

Fatima pov, Sunday, 6:30pm

"Imma get you some ginger ale and some water." Zac rushed out the room.

I've been throwing up all day since the sun came up. One thing I hate about being pregnant is the pain and throwing up.

I can deal with the hormones but I hate the pain and trips to the nearest trash can.

I flushed the toilet and brushed my teeth then made my way back into bed.

Soon enough, Zac came back with my pink stanley cup and a can of ginger ale.

"Gracias mi amor." I smiled as he sat the cup and ginger ale down on the table beside the bed.

"You're welcome. Are you calling out of work tomorrow?" He asked.

"I will if I don't feel well tomorrow, if I feel better I'll go in." I said as I grabbed my ipad off the table.

"Imma go play-"

"Why do you wanna play the game so much? I'm not entertaining enough for you?" I mugged.

"Who said all that Fatima?" He asked.

"Get out my face and go play your funky ass game." I turned over.

"Why does it have to be funky?" He laughed.

I opened my ipad and started watching a show to tune him out.

"You're ignoring me now?" He asked. "Alright, I'll just go play my funky game."

As he exited the room, I decided to facetime Andi and tell her the news.

"Hey boo!" Andi answered.

"Wassup, how are you?" I asked.

"I'm doing well but I should be asking you that since you be too busy to call me." She rolled her eyes.

"Being a teacher, a mother and a girlfriend can be a little hard." I shrugged.

"How's teaching going anyways?" She asked.

"It's going good, I thought I wouldn't like it anymore after last time." I said.

"I'm glad that's going good." She smiled.

"So you know how I told you I was sick a couple months ago?" I asked and she nodded. "Well, turns out I'm -"

"You're pregnant!? Yes, I knew twin would pop a baby inside!" She squealed.

"Girl how'd you know I was gon say that?" I laughed.

"Cause you've been sick and all that shit." She said. "Ouuu, I now have three godbabies!"

"Indeed you do."

"So how'd you find out?" She asked.

"Well, me and my man had finished our sloppy hours and he said something about plan B's or something. Next morning, I took two tests that came out positive then we went to the doctors where they confirmed that I'm four months."

"I'm happy you finally found a man that actually loves you, that Ian wasn't shit." She rolled her eyes.

"I know that Andi, you don't have to keep reminding me." I chuckled. "But I think I made the man mad.."

"What's new? You're always making him mad." She laughed. "What happened?"

"So boom, I've been sick like all day and he brought me some water and ginger ale then said he wanted to play the game and I crashed out." I shrugged. "If you really think about it, it's not my fault."
