Rasheed walks into his father's mansion and sees the father watching television on the couch. The father signals to him telling him to sit in the couch beside him. Rasheed sits waiting for a word from his father but he hears nothing. Minutes go buy and still nothing from his father who is just sitting there sipping on his wine and watching the television.

"Dad?" Rasheed breaks the silence

"Dad?" Rasheed breaks the silence

The father acts as if no one is talking to him and continues his routine of sipping the drink and sitting back on the couch. Rasheed gets frustrated and gets up

"Sit....down" Tanko utters

"What is it dad?"

"Your mother came to see me yesterday"

"Really? She's in town?"

"Don't play dumb with me. You know she's back and you know exactly why"

"I really don't" Rasheed replies

"Is this your plan? To throw the entire family name and fortune in the mud?"

"I'm not throwing anything in the mud"

"Your mother told me you want everything, everything. From my mansions to my companies to my lands. Everything"

"I..."

"You are not ready son. This is not the way to go about anything. When the time is right I will hand everything over to you. Besides your siblings show little or no interest. I don't see why you would result to this. You are doing so well for yourself"

"So well? You destroy everything I try to create. Anytime I create something, a brand or anything. You either find a way to acquire or find a way to destroy it. I'm sick and tired of it"

"Son I only do that so we can have conglomerates under one name"

"Yes, your name. I want something of my own dad"

"And my companies are yours? My mansions are yours? Is this how you plan on creating something for yourself"

"They are yours for now, but I can easily make them mine and everyone will forget you ever existed"

"You don't want to do this. You don't"

"Sign the documents. We both know you don't have a choice"

Rasheed gets up, walks over to his father and drink what's left of the wine in his glass before he walks out of the building

HOSPITAL
Latasha and Lilian get out of the car and they walk into the hospital building. Lilian had earlier been complaining of feeling nauseous, fatigued and peeing very frequently.
Lilian takes a seat while Latasha tries to get her to see the doctor. While Latasha was away, Lilian gets a text from Rasheed telling her he would really like to see her and fix things. She contemplates whether to reply or not and that's when Latasha returns.

"What's wrong?" Latasha asks

"What's wrong?" Latasha asks

"Nothing" Lilian says while quickly keeping the phone in the bag

"What is it? You know you can tell me"

"I went to see Rasheed"

"When?"

"Does it matter?"

"Yes, it does"

"After his visit few nights ago"

"Okay, move on"

"I went to see him and we had this whole big fight and I think I broke up with him"

"What?! Are you crazy?!" Latasha exclaims

"You don't understand"

"Understand what?"

"I asked him if he still loved me and he couldn't even open his mouth"

Before Latasha could reply, a nurse walks up to them

"Lilian Dominic?" The Nurse asks

"Yes, that's me" Lilian gets up

"The Doctor is ready to see you"

"Thank you"

"We're not done with this conversation" Latasha whispers

Latasha and Lilian both walk into the office of the Doctor and after exchanging pleasantries they dove right into the issue at hand. Lilian explained her issues to the Doctor and she decided to examine Lilian properly. The examination took a few minutes before they went back to their seats

"You'll go with the nurse to get a test done to confirm" the Doctor orders

"Confirm what Doc?" Lilian asks nervously

"It appears you are pregnant"
