Olivia walked in.

"I could've sworn you had on a dress earlier." Olivia said

"You seen me earlier?"

"Yep, at central. Walking and talking like a married couple." Olivia said looking at them

"Who was walking and talking like a married couple?" Denzel said walking in

"You so nosey" Fatima said laughing

"Leave them alone" Olivia said

*45 minutes later*

Amelia was in good hands. They were all on their way home. Zac drove Fatima to her hotel and walked her up.

"I don't want you to leave." Fatima said

"I don't want to leave either, but I don't have any clothes to stay."

"I don't care. I'm not taking no for an answer." Fatima said

"I think that I have clothes in my car. I have to go check though."

He went downstairs and checked. He did have some clothes. He always kept extra clothes in the car just in case. He came back upstairs.

Fatima got in the shower and Zac did after.

"I'm ready to go to bed." Fatima said

"You think you so slick. Get up."

"What?"

"You haven't eaten."

"Ughh I'll just make me something in the morning."

"No. Get up. Let's go in the kitchen and I'll make you something."

Zac ended up making them some chicken and fries. They chilled for the rest of the night.

*before they went to bed*

Fatima and Zac were in the bed facing each other.

"Stop looking me in my eyes like that." Fatima said

"Why can't I look at you? You're pretty"

"Thank you." Fatima said, looking away nervously

"Look at me. Why you acting shy?"

"I'm not acting shy. I'm trying to sto-"

Fatima's phone started ringing. She looked at it and rolled her eyes.

"Why you ain't answer your phone?" Zac asked

"I'm just not going to and I don't plan on it." Fatima said sitting up

"You're running from something and you need to stop."

"I'm not running, I'm walking"

Zac started laughing.

"Fatima, you can't run or WALK away from everything. You're going to have to face it eventually."

"I don't want to face it. I just want everybody to leave me alone. That's the only thing I ask."

"What's going on Fatima?"

"They want me to go to my mothers funeral and I'm not doing that"

"Why not?"

"She wasn't the best person to me. I feel like her funeral should only be for the people that she actually loved, so I'm not going. Everybody that treated me like shit will be in the same room. Haven't seen them in years and I don't plan on it."

"This is your opportunity to prove yourself. Not that you have to, but you can really show them that they all missed out. You were always better and they couldn't stand you for that. Go."

"I get it but I still just don't want to go. Maybe another time, but as of right now, no."

"You're going to wish that you would've went. All the things that you could've said and did."

"I don't think so."

"You're going and that's final." Zac said sitting up in the bed

"I didn't book a flight or anything and it's tomorrow."

"Drive it"

"I'm not a long distance driver so I guess I won't be going"

"You love playing with me. You really do." Zac said

"I'm not doing anything. I'm just telling you that I don't do long distance driving."

"You drove 12 hours from Chicago to here. It's the same drive back. I don't care how many excuses you make. You're going."

"How you going to tell me?" Fatima says folding her arms

"Because I can."

"This is crazy. You really be trying to tell me what to do."

"You listening so I don't see a problem."

"Go pack your clothes. I'm serious."

"No."

"Okay." Zac said leaning back on his phone.

"What are you doing?"

Zac stayed quiet for about 5 minutes.

"Go pack you clothes."

"I said no"

"Your flight is leaving in 6 hours. Go pack."

"Zachary, you aren't serious right now."

"I am."

"Cancel it. I'm not going alone to see them people."

"You aren't going alone."

"Who's going to go with me then?" Fatima asked
