The next day...
Melissa is inside the doctor's office on top of the table as Yasmine stood by her side as she cried about miscarrying the twins.
Yasmine, "There's nothing you could have done, Liss. It's not your fault. For us women, it's just common."
Melissa, "I know. Sometimes the egg just gets unattached, and the body treats it like a waste."
Yasmine, "You going to be, okay?"
Melissa, "Yeah. Don't worry about me. I'm fine. I'll be fine. Hopefully, your brother isn't too mad or starts yelling. I really don't have time to deal with all his emotions today."
Yasmine, "Well, you know he's going to say something."
Melissa hops down, "Yeah. Let's just go."

As Melissa was walking out of the doctor's office, Joe calls.
Joe: Where are you at?

Melissa: Came to the doctor

Melissa: Came to the doctor.
Joe: When did you make an appointment and why didn't you tell me?
Melissa: I made it a few days ago because I'm grown.
Joe: How are my babies?
Melissa gets quiet.
Joe: Hello?
Melissa: There are no babies... not anymore.
Joe: I KNOW DAMN WELL YOUR PEANUT BRITTLE LOOKING ASS DIDN'T KILL MY BABIES!!!
Melissa: NO, you ass! Even having an ass like you as their father wouldn't be worth it. And I would never kill my babies! Are you insane to ask me some shit like that?!
Melissa holds her stomach in pain, and sharp pains shoot through, from all the strain of yelling at Joe. Melissa grunts in pain, making Joe heart soften after hearing Melissa in pain.
Joe: Baby I'm sorry. Just please come back to the house.
Melissa: Look, I'll get to my house sooner. I just need to lay down. And if you talk to Anita please tell her to call me. She's not picking up. And if she doesn't respond in an hour, please go see about her.
Yasmine sees Melissa's car still parked and pulls beside her. Yasmine sits there with Melissa to help her through the pain, by keeping her mind distracted with laughter and great memories.

Meanwhile, at home, Joe was infuriated. His heart broke for his wife. And he sits down to think of all the mess his lifestyle has made.
Joe, "It's time to clean up the mess and tie up all loose ends. I'm sick of this shit!"

Joe sits and thinks of a game plan

Joe sits and thinks of a game plan. He makes a whole layout of the enemies when to attack, and where it will take place.
