It's going on 3 house and Fatima was sitting in the chapel when in walks Zac
Zac: Hey baby, I been looking everywhere for you. Why aren't you answering your phone?
Fatima: Hey baby, i'm sorry baby, my phone doesn't have reception down here.
Zac: You okay?
Fatima: I'm okay, This just feels so familiar.
Zac: I keep hearing your family say déjà vu a lot when it comes to you, what that about?
Fatima: Well as you know kidney failure runs in my family. My father had it one of my brothers had it and my younger brother passed last year from it.
Zac: Is that's the one you have hanging up in the house?
Fatima: Yes, he was so full of life and love. And he loved him some football and basketball, he was good at it too.
Zac: What happened?
Fatima: One day he was in the middle of a game and all of the sudden, he collapsed on the gym floor. He was rushed to the hospital unconscious, and by the time he got to the hospital, he had fell into a coma. He was on a ventilator for two weeks. And it wasn't no used in keeping him on any longer because he wasn't getting any better and his organs were failing. I was literally watching my brother die right before my eyes, and it wasn't anything I could do about it. Later on we found out that he died before he even made it to the hospital. They were just trying to make money off him by putting him on a ventilator as long as they could.
Zac: So they knew that he was gone but yet still put him on a ventilator to make it seem like there was hope.
Fatima: Exactly what they did. Plus they missed diagnosed him. Myself alone with Ty, and Dee were all tested. Trey and Dee are the only two that had it along with my father. And last year we found out that Trey had it all alone.
Zac: Wow, baby I'm so sorry.
Fatima: Now you know why I can't give up.
Zac: Well just know that I got you.
Fatima: Thank you baby.
Zac: You're welcome baby, I love you.
Fatima: I love you too baby. ( they kissed )
Zac: You wanna go get something to eat?
Fatima: I don't have much of an appetite right now.
Zac: Baby you didn't eat breakfast, you gotta eat something.
Fatima: As soon as they come out of surgery and I know they're okay, I will eat.

They left to get something to eat.
Dee: Sis you good?
Fatima: Yes I'm okay?
Dee: I was just checking on you.
Fatima: I'm not trying to be rude or even sound mean. But I'm just tired of people asking me the same question.
Dee: I'm sorry
Fatima: It's okay bro. It's nothing to be sorry for. I appreciate everyone's concern but I'm okay. And when I'm not, I promise y'all will know.
Dee: Okay then.
The car was silent for a min
Fatima: It's the awkward silence for me. Y'all didn't have to stop talking.
Dee: I'm mean we didn't want to get cussed out.
Fatima: Boy whatever.
Dee: I'm just saying.
Fatima: T, I know it's been a lot the past couple of days, and I just wanna check in to see how you feeling about everything.
Tia: I mean I'm not sure how to feel. But he's my man, and I love him. And regardless of what it is, I'm sticking with him through thick and then. She's his daughter that can't be changed, so if she's apart of his life, she's apart of mine as well.
Dee: I respect that.
Fatima: Wym by that?
Dee: Because most women don't want men that have kids.
Fatima: I get your point, but everybody and they momma got kids now and days.
Tia: True
Fatima: And plus this isn't a simple minded female we're talking to, this is a fully grown woman we're talking to.
Tia: Facts.
Fatima: But I have a question for you men.
Zac: I already know what you're going to ask.
Fatima: Do you?
Zac: You going to ask if the shoe was on the other foot, if I'll stick around or walk away.
Fatima: So would you?
Zac: Hell yea I would. Especially if she was you.
Fatima: Baby I'm being serious.
Zac: Me too. See what people fail to realize is that, regardless if kids are involved or not, if you really love and care about that person, then you're going to stick around through it all. People walk out on their blessings like that. And they wonder why they keep running into dead ends with people. It's because the person God had for you, you walked out in. So why would he give you want you want when you couldn't even appreciate what he gave to you.
Tia: Okay then pastor.
Fatima: Im saying that kinda turned me on.
Dee: Okay you doing too much now.
Fatima: Well would you?
Dee: I don't know if I would. A child is a lot.
Fatima: What's the difference in y'all having a child or kids together.
Dee: Key word our kids. Her kids not my kids. My kids wouldn't be her kids.
Fatima: I forgot who tf I'm talking to, because clearly you have a lot more to learn about life brother.
Dee: What you mean?
Fatima: Nothing, conversation is over. We're here anyway.
Dee: Sis I was just playing.
Fatima: No you wasn't, now get out the car.
Dee: I was.
Fatima: Dee just get out the car.
Dee got out the car
Zac: Baby he's young, you can't be so hard on him.
Fatima: Young my ass, let's go eat.
Zac went around and opened Fatima door.
Zac: After you my queen.
Fatima: Thank you baby.
Zac: You're welcome baby.
Tia: See Dee you can learn something from Zac.
Fatima: Sis please don't get him started.
Tia: Okay, I'll leave it alone.
They went inside the restaurant.

Jackie: So Ty is the oldest?
Violet: Yes, then Fatima, Dee, and my late son Trey.
Jackie: I'm sorry to hear that.
