It has been three months since the breakup. Zac kept his promise to Fatima and stopped texting and calling. Even though he wanted nothing more in the world than to hear her voice and see her smile again. He regretted making such as rash decision and not thinking it through. He never meant to cause her any hurt, he truly thought this would be best for them. During these past three months, Zac has just been focusing on himself. He has not entertained anybody else; he was still in love with Fatima. He couldn't bring himself to open his heart to another woman, and he didn't want to anyways, he knew Fatima was the one for him. Every Wednesday since the breakup he had Fatima's favorite bottle of wine along with her favorite flowers delivered to her house at 8 pm. Fatima ignored the gifts, but Danni on the other hand looked forward to Wednesdays to get her free bottle of wine for the week. Once Fatima started the second semester of her junior year, Zac got ahold of her schedule, and every Monday he had someone put a poem and her favorite candy in her seat. He never left his name on any of the gifts, but Fatima knew who they came from.

Fatima is very much still in love with Zac, but she did her best to move on. A month after her break up, the quarterback of the football team, Christian started to try to talk to her. This wasn't his first attempt, but now that everyone knew Zac and her were not together, he decided to try again. Fatima turned him down a few times but then decided to give him a try. She told herself the best way to get over one guy, was to get under another. Month two after the breakup, Christian took Fatima out on a date for Valentine's Day, which was also the first time they had sex. Fatima didn't like it, so she deiced to just remove it from the equation. She told Christian that maybe they just needed to get to know each other a little better. During that month Fatima also took her LSAT, the test she needs to take before she can enter law school. She also applied to her top three choices: Standford (California), Columbia University (New York), and the University of Chicago (Chicago.) In month three of the breakup (current month) Fatima found out she made a 176/180 on the LSAT which is one of the highest scores you can get. She knew she would be getting an acceptance letter from the schools within the next couple of months. Fatima decided to go to California to take another tour of the campus. Christian and Danni decided to come with her for the weekend trip, as a gift to Fatima for her LSAT success he decided to buy them all tickets to see the Los Angeles Lakers play.

In L.A

Christian: -downstairs getting the uber-

Danni & Fatima in the bedroom

Danni: Tima you good? I told you not to eat that heavy food before the flight.

Fatima: -brushing her teeth- Yes. I know I should've listened my stomach is not happy.

Danni: -looking at her outfit- T, you really going to wear that lakers jersey and nothing underneath it? Your ass doesn't even like that team, and that's a shirt, not a dress.

Fatima: -laughs- D, my ass is not showing so that's good enough for me. Who are they playing anyways?

Danni: Shit I don't know. It is just a free basketball game with floor seats for meee.

Fatima: Yeah, that is true. I can't believe Christian did this, and he got us up here in this nice ass Airbnb.

Danni: Of course, he would, Tima. He is pulling out all the stops to get you. Hell, I like him. He is a gentleman he never lets you touch a door, pay for or pump your gas; he pays for anything when he is around. He sends you 'just because gifts' and listens to you. Hell, he evens put up with me. Tima, that is a true king right there.

Fatima: Yeah, he is aight.

Danni: Fatima, you tripping man. People would kill for him! I know you said you didn't like the sex, but you only did it one time. Maybe he was nervous, and I know for a fact you had Zac on your mind during. So, you weren't even giving it a fair chance.
