DELANO POV

It kills me that Gia just took the kids and left. I have no way of reaching her and that's driving my crazy. I needed to speak to someone. Standing in front of her therapist office. I was about to knock when she was coming out. She jumped back "oh my! You scared the crap out of me!".

"sorry, I just needed to talk to you. I'm Gia's husband" I said.

"Delano? Yes I remember. Well come inside" she walked in and I followed. Taking a seat on the couch. "So I imagine Gia told you about everything".

"Actually she didn't tell me much. So why don't you catch me up on what's going on" she said. I explained to her how I cheated on gia with Bria and all the other stuff with that. "Wow! That's a lot".

"Look Gia left and took the kids. Did she mention to you where she was going?" I asked. She shook her head "no I'm sorry she didn't".

"Dammit!" I said.

"Delano can I ask why when Gia has a good head on her shoulders you tend to do something to mess it up?".

"I guess cause she doesn't necessarily need me. So I went where I would be needed. And now I need my family back and I have no clue where they are. I don't even know if they are okay!".

"Yes, the neediness. So I was right. Let me get this straight. When Gia is mentally not okay you're fine with that because she needs you. But when she's better than ever is when you feel left out. Did your mother ever do that to you? When she was in a rough patch she depended on you but otherwise she wouldn't pay you any mind".

I looked up at her "she did that to me a lot".

"Figures the women you tend to go after or attract" she said.

"This isn't good though. Gia left me two times before. I can't lose her again. This might be the end. I fucked up!".

"But why did you do what you did? Do you have some underlying feelings for Bria?. How long did you guys really date, mess around? Since your here might as well come clean".

"The feelings I have for Gia isn't the same feelings I had for Bria. You can say I was infatuated with Bria. But Gia I'm on a whole other level with her. You may say it's an obsessive thing. But Bria and I dated after Gia decided she needed to help herself. Then it went on for almost two years. I got married to madison and it continued. Until I started talking to gia again. My focus was solely on her. I wanted us back together. I missed us. Bria hated the fact that gia and I were talking. But I cut all ties with her when Gia got pregnant. Everything was cool. Until a few months back we had a fight and I left. Went to Brias apartment and we hooked up. Next thing I know she's pregnant and threatening to tell gia. I made her get rid of the baby and to keep her mouth shut too".

The therapist shook her head "Delano... Gia is a fragile person. She is working on herself with great progress. But if you keep pulling her down she could fall back into the woman she was before we both don't want that for her. She's been through so much in her life. You were the only good thing for her. But at what cost?".

When I was about to respond her phone rang. She glanced at me before picking up. "Can't talk now. Yes he's here".

"Is that Gia?" I asked. The therapist looked sympathetic "Gia just speak to him to let him know you are okay". She handed me the phone. Gia didn't speak but I can hear wind. "Hello?".

"I'm fine. The kids are fine" she said.

"Can I talk to Ryan or Kai?" I asked.

"Hey dad" Ryan said.

"I miss you guys. I was so worried that something happened to you" I said.

"We are on vacation. No need to worry" he said.

"Love you, where's your brother?" I asked.

"Hi dad!" He said.

"Hey Kai, I miss you. Make sure you take care of your sister! Where are you guys?" I asked. Hearing muffles and then the line went dead. Looking at the phone the call said unknown. Gia was smarter than I thought. Handing her the phone.

"I don't know what to do to get my family back" I said.

"Delano you have to try and be truthful to gia. She's your wife the mother of your children. You have to stop treating her the way you are. She deserves so much better. Stop the cheating. Treat Gia like the woman you married. Cherish her. Protect her. She loves you with everything even though she can't say it".

I nodded "You're right".

"Now I can't make a decision for Gia but it's on her whenever she comes back. Whether she wants to continue this union or to divorce you". Just hearing the word divorce... just sent chills down my spine. I wouldn't want our children to go through that.

I needed to find Gia. But how?. She had to tell someone where she was going.
