Us Against The World

Tiffani's Plan

Fatima was exhausted by the time she got home. She already had to stay late at the office then not to mention picking Andi drunk ass up from the bar. Andi wouldn't stop going on and on about her new friend she met until she dozed off.

Fatima was going to have to talk with Andi. Whenever Andi's relationships didn't go as plan Andi would start to lose herself. Since Fatima had known Andi, she has not been single. Hopefully once Andi sobered up, she would be ready to have a conversation.

The Next Morning

Tiffani could barely compose herself last night. She got a thrill out of almost being caught. Tiffani watched in the shadows as Fatima escorted drunk Andi out of the club. Tiffani was impressed at how gullible Andi was. She knew that it wasn't going to be too easy getting close to Fatima's other friend, but she was up for the challenge.

Fatima jumped up out of her slumber she knew she was sleeping too good. She looked at her phone, and it read 10:30am.

"Shit I am so late"

Fatima looked around trying to see where Zac and Zaya was, but the house was quiet and empty. She grabbed her phone and called Zac he picked up on the first ring.

"Good morning sleeping beauty"

Fatima didn't even greet him properly she just started going off.

"Where are y'all at and why didn't you wake me up now I am late for an important meeting."

"Well first off good morning to you and second, I did try to wake you up multiple times but you didn't budge. So I got Zaya together and took her to school and went to work as I had meetings too."

Well clearly you could have tried a little harder

Clearly you are mad about something else.

I'm not mad Zac.

Are you sure because I can sense a lot of hostility coming through the phone and your nose is probably flared too.

There was a moment of silence. Fatima looked in the mirror, and her nose was indeed flared, and she was taking her anger out on Zac.

I'm sorry that you're late babe but I really tried to wake you up.

Just forget about it

Before Zac could day something else Fatima hung up the phone.

Fatima was headed upstairs when there was a loud knock at the door that startled Fatima. Who ever it was kept banging loud as fuck.

Who the hell banging on my damn door?

Fatima swung the door open with an attitude but seen it was Ebony.

Oh, hey girl thought you were the police banging on my door like that.

Fatima turned her back to Ebony and walked in the kitchen.

Are you ignoring me? I been calling you back-to-back yesterday.

No, I had back-to-back meetings yesterday, I worked late and ended up picking Andi drunk ass up from the bar last night.

Fatima looked at Ebony's face and could tell she didn't look to happy.

I never expected the day that somebody would bring something to my doorstep and my best friend knew about it and didn't tell me.

What are you talking about Ebony?
So you knew about Tony having a baby on me?

Fatima mouth dropped open because Fatima forgot all about that she ws waiting on the test results to come back.

Yeah, the look on your face says it all.
