Fun fact:: I was planning to end this book so many chapters ago. But because my mind is always on the run it keeps creating more shit.

DELANO POV

I woke up before Gia did. Leaving her in the bed so she can sleep so I can get my mind right. Grabbing some coffee and sitting outside just to wonder about what other things have Gia hid from me. I don't put nothing past her. She's more of act now and think later.

That's definitely going to be the topic of conversation today. Hearing her footsteps I turned to her "Well good morning".

"Good morning and why do you have your glasses on? Oh wait I can imagine you forgot your contacts

"Good morning and why do you have your glasses on? Oh wait I can imagine you forgot your contacts... right?" She smiled sitting down.

"Yup, I raced out of the house I didn't pack my essentials" I said.

"You look a little nerdy. And a little crazy too" she teased. Smiling I went back to drinking my coffee. "How did you sleep?".

She shrugged "like usual, why?".

"Thinking since you got most off your chest you would sleep like a baby" I said.

"Who told you that?" She laughed.

"It's true. Anytime you are frustrated and you release that frustration you feel much better. Hence you'll sleep better too".

"Okay, Delano... I'm going to get something to eat" she turned around and walked back inside. I got up and followed her. Why not start today's session early. Gia grabbed some cereal and sat down at the table. I closed the patio door and sat across from her. "What?".

"I just want to continue our conversation from last night".

"What a great time too! When I want to eat!" She said.

"Well let's get straight into it shall we... since you have a terrible habit of keeping things from me. I want to know everything you've kept from me". She looked up at me "You can't be serious".

"Very serious. Let's go back home on a clean slate. So start telling". She dropped her spoon "Well let's start easy then. Remember when Ryan was two. And I said I was going to visit my brother in arizona?. Well I didn't go to Arizona instead I went to New York for a week. That was so much fun though".

Not saying anything cause I was trying not to get mad. "So when I tried to FaceTime you and you didn't pick up... I see why now".

"Yeah..." she nervously said.

"Anymore things I should know?" I asked.

"Delano I really think this is stupid. The only thing that'll end up happening is you'll get very upset".

"Anymore more things?" I Ignored her.

"Well... there's something but I know this will blow your top off. So let's just forget about it" she said.

"Try me" I said.

"Delano...." she whined.

"Gia... start spilling" I said.

She sighed "remember a year and a half ago when I was pregnant and told you I miscarried?".

"Yeah..."

"Well I... I wasn't ready just yet to have another baby. So I terminated the pregnancy and told you I miscarried" that right there sent me over the damn edge.

"So you mean to tell me you aborted our child without telling me?!" I asked.

She nodded "see this is why I didn't want to tell you".

"Gia right now I want to strangle you but I'm trying to compose myself from doing it. How could you do something so selfish?".

"I told you when I found out how I wasn't ready to be a mom again. But you ignored me and tried to talk me into continuing with the pregnancy. I tried numerous times to talk to you about it and you just shut me down. So I took matters in my own hands".

"I'm in disbelief that you did this. This whole time I thought you miscarried. I was there for you that whole time!".

"And I thank you for that. Cause I was technically going through that process alone".

"Did Bria know about that?" I asked.

"No, I didn't tell anyone" she said. I got up from the table and paced around the kitchen. This woman aborted our child and didn't tell me. And then lied about how she miscarried. Unbelievable!. I turned to her as she slowly started eating again. "I'm speechless".

"I warned you about this one. But noooo you just wanted to know" she said.

Standing there I can't believe this... "Gia do you realize what you just told me?".

"Yes! And I'm sorry but I tried talking to you before about it but you shut me out every time. It's not like I just did it and didn't try talk it out".

"What made you keep this one? Since you tried killing Ryan and you succeeded in killing the one after that".

"That's not fair Delano! You're making me sound like I'm a horrible mom. And I'm not! I just wasn't ready then and now I am. What the fuck are you the only one who gets to decide what happens in our relationship?".

"Oh no! Don't try to turn this on me. I'm not the one who killed our child and kept it a secret from the world". She picked her her cereal and walked out the kitchen without saying anything else. I was beyond pissed the fuck off. Slamming my fist on the counter I yelled.

This wasn't the way I wanted this day to go.
