This week's episode of 'Black Ink Crew: Chicago' has sent everyone on an emotional rollercoaster, especially Draya who has not been very vocal about Zach's sudden exit.

Previously, Zach and Fly Tatted got into a heated argument following which both went missing in action leaving everyone worried and confused. Later, artists from 2nd Ink City find out Zach has left for Ohio and is looking for a job there. This puts off Charmaine because she had been sticking her neck out for Zach and she even convinced Jessica to reconsider her thoughts about showing him the pink slip.

This has not only left Charmaine questioning her hiring skills but also impacted Draya. She is a strong, brave woman who understands relationships and the complexities they bring. Having been in an abusive relationship for over four years where she got told that the only way out of the relationship for her was in a "body bag", Draya knows when to worry about an equation or friendship going south. 

The tattoo artist even said that what she has been through has only made her stronger, adding that nothing Zach does can bring her to her knees. Meanwhile, fans think it was a weird move on Zach's part to have left without informing anyone.

"Zach ain’t say shit to they ass lol he just up and left town that’s messed up and he ain’t say nothing to draya he probably just wanted the exposure #BlackInkChi," a fan wrote. "Draya is seriously stressing out over Zach? Chile bye.... yall only had a couple of dates and some sex #BlackInkCHI," another fan expressed.

"Draya, move slower next time and try not to date coworkers. Bad idea, as you can see. #BlackInkCHI," a viewer pointed out. 

Zach and Draya's relationship had barely taken off when everything started to turn against them. Even though Draya was clear that she wanted their's to be an out-of-office romance, Zach couldn't keep himself from reacting when Fly Tatted touched Draya at a work party while she twerked. This incident got blown out of proportion with the owners asking Draya to keep things professional or she'll have to be asked to let go.
