Dave
I made it back to the house after dropping Kairi off to my parents I walked in and closed the door behind me.

"Babe where you at we gotta go," I called out.

Dee walked out of the kitchen with 3 doughnuts in her hand and a bottle of water.

"I'm ready."

"Babe 3 doughnuts?"

"Yeah lets go."

Dee walked passed me and over to the front door I walked over to the door I opened it Dee walked out and I was right behind her I closed the door and locked it. Me and Dee walked over to my Range Rover I opened the passenger door Dee got in I slapped her ass and closed the door. I walked around to the driver side I got in I put my seatbelt on and drove off.

"Let me get a bite."

Dee held out her doughnut and I bit it.

"Thank you babe."

"You're welcome."

"Kairi threw a tantrum when I was dropping her off."

"Why?"

"Because she wanted to come with us."

"Aww my little baby after the session we got to go get her."

"We will and you can't buy Kairi anymore stuff."

"What why?"

"For one everytime you go to the mall you're getting Kairi stuff and you over did it for Christmas."

"Sorry I can't help it Kairi is my baby and when I'm out I think about her."

"Can't wait to my son comes so we can dress alike just like you and Kairi."

"He'll be here in 3 months."

"And I can't wait."

About 35 minutes later I pulled up to Dr. Wells office I parked and shut my car off I got out and helped Dee out. We intertwined hands and walked inside we walked up to the front desk.

"Good morning do you have an appointment with Dr. Wells."

"Yes David Brewster and Dejah Jones."

"Okay have a seat and I'll let Dr. Wells know that you two are here."

"Okay."

We sat down the receptionist picked up the phone and called Dr. Wells. About 2 minutes later her door opened and she stepped out.

"Mr. Brewster and Ms. Jones you two can come in."

Me and Dee stood up and walked over to Dr. Wells office and walked in we both sat down Dr. Wells closed the door then walked over to her desk sat down in her seat.

"So tell me what brings you two here today?"

"We're engaged and we just had a big argument about a week ago and when things got too heated and I felt stressed I left taking our daughter with me which was wrong and we just want tips on how to communicate with each other better after we done had an argument," Dee said.

"What was the argument about?"

"Dejah ex showed up unannounced to our hotel door she did tell him to leave and I started thinking the worst and I went off on her."

"How?"

"I had asked her did she give him our room number and things escalated from there."

"Did you give your ex you and David hotel room number Dejah?"

"No Dr. Wells I'll never do anything like that to David ever."

"Okay so did you two talk things out or just brushed it under the rug?"

"We talked things out after Dejah stormed away with our daughter."

"How far along are you Dejah?"

"I'm 6 months."

"Boy or girl?"

"Boy."

"Congratulations to you both so this is your second child together correct," Dr. Wells asked.

"No my daughter Kairi isn't Dejah's biologically Dejah had legally adopted her our son is our first child together."

"Okay before we go any further I want to ask you two a question."

"Okay."

"Dejah do you feel like you can trust David and that he'll never hurt you."

"Yes."

"And David do you feel like you can trust Dejah and that she'll never hurt you."

I looked at Dejah then at Dr. Wells.

"Yes."

"You hesitated to answer that David and I'm
going to tell you why you hesitated."

I felt Dee eyes on me I couldn't even look at her.

Dejah
Me and Dave have talks all the time but I feel like it's something that he's holding back from me.

"The aurora and vibe that I'm picking up from you is that you two are deeply in love with each other but one of you is more in love with the other person."

By now I wasn't holding Dave's hand anymore.

"And who is that Dr. Wells," I asked.

"You Dejah you're more deeply in love with David than he is with you don't get me wrong David is madly in love with you and will do anything to protect you but at the same time he has his guard up right David," I looked at Dave wanting to know his answer.

"Yeah."

"Care to share why?"

"Kairi moms ruined my outlook on women and relationships she lied and cheated on me and that made me think all women are the same."

"Do you think Dejah would lie and cheat on you making you continue to not trust her."

"Yes and no."

"Why two answers?"

"No because I know that Dejah loves me she loves me with her entire soul and yes because it happened to me before so I do have my guard up around Dejah and I don't trust her like that."

"Dejah how does that make you feel?"

"Low and unworthy."

"Why?"

I knew Dave was looking at me I turned and looked at him knowing the tears are about to fall.

"Because he doesn't love me as much as I love him and to hear him say that he doesn't trust me hurts."

"And that's the reason of the argument you two are had last week."

I took some Kleenex off of Dr. Wells desk and wiped my eyes.

"Can you excuse me?"

"Yeah take all of the time you need Dejah."

I nodded I stood up and walked out of the office I asked the receptionist where the bathroom was. Once she told me I quickly walked over to the bathroom I walked inside and went straight to the stall I lifted up the seat and emptied out my breakfast and the three doughnuts.
