*Sophia's POV*

After Lucca got me to calm down a bit... He asked if I still wanted to go visit his parents today, I said yes because I really should just get this over and done with... She can't hurt me because Lucca and my family know everything and they won't dare let her hurt me

We shortly arrived at Lucca's parent's mansion... and right now, I began feeling all nervous

Lucca sensed it immediately and gave me a soft nod while squeezing my hand gently, telling me it was okay

I nodded back then Lucca got out and opened my door for me, helping me out. We walked up to the double doors of his parent's mansion and rang the doorbell

Lucca kept his fingers interlaced with mine as we waited for someone to open the door...

Soon enough the bitch in all her glory opened the door... When she noticed who it was she completely ignored me and tried to hug Lucca with a bright smile plastered on her face

"Ahhhh Lucca my baby boy how-" she stopped mid sentence at the look Lucca was sending her way and rejecting her embrace

"Lucca what is the matter, why are you acting so strange son?"

Lucca chuckled bitterly and looked away from her for a brief moment, then looked back at her with a disgusted look

"Your son? Do you even deserve to call yourself a mother after what you did to Sophia?!...how much you hurt me from taking her away from me?! DID YOU EVER THINK ABOUT ME MOTHER!!?" he fumed at her while she just stood there shocked, then out of no where she turned to me glaring and reached out to choke me, quickly wrapping her hands around my throat...

I was beyond shocked by her actions...but her hands were only around my neck for a brief second before Lucca stepped in, grabbing her arms off of me and slapped her right across the cheek...

Yes Lucca slapped her

"DON'T YOU EVER LAY A FUCKING FINGER ON HER EVER AGAIN!! DON'T THINK BECAUSE YOU GAVE BIRTH TO ME, YOU CAN CALL YOURSELF MY MOTHER. A MOTHER IS SOMEONE WHO WILL DO ANYTHING FOR THEIR CHILD'S HAPPINESS AND SAFETY... AND YOU!! YOU ARE NOTHING BUT A COLD, HEARTLESS, PSYCHO BITCH!" He screamed at her while she just stood there holding her cheek and looking at him in disbelief...

"Whats with all the yelling, my god-" we heard another familiar voice coming out

"Lucca what are you doing here- Oh my god!! Sophia?!?" and there stood Vincenzo Del'mario smiling at us surprised with our presence...

Lucca's father

"Dad call Absterhill...tell them we've got a patient for them to see" Lucca said glaring at his mother

"The mental institute? Why? What's going on? Sophia?... What's happening?" Vincenzo asked curiously

"I think we should go inside... We'll tell you everything" and for the first time in what felt like a long time... I heard Lucca's mother's voice go gentle... And something that sounded like... Pain or regret? That laced her voice too

We all headed inside and were now seated in the living room.

Lucca was sitting next to me, continuously glaring at his mother who sat across from us with her husband next to her
Vincenzo looked confused with a face that said he was looking for answers

"Well...is anyone going to speak up now? Lucca why are you glaring at your mother like that? Marissa? Why is he looking at you like that?" Vincenzo was asking all these questions with curiosity until Lucca finally spoke up

"You see dad... This lady sitting across from me, can't be called my mother, she's cunning and needs help" Lucca spoke venomously

"What are you talking about? Sophia what's he talking about?" Vincenzo asked me as to which I just looked down at my lap avoiding their gazes

"It all started..." Lucca trailed off telling the whole story from the beginning to what I told him, up until now where Marissa tried to choke me

By the end of it, Marissa had her head down in shame and was sobbing quietly... Vincenzo looked shocked and hurt... He couldn't believe it

And Lucca... Well Lucca was just... Lucca, looking angry but also pained as he sat there looking at them both

"Please tell me it's not true Marissa..." Vincenzo trailed off looking at his wife now

"I-I'm s-sorry, I n-need help, I kn-know okay! I'll g-get help" Marissa sobbed

After a few more moments of silence Vincenzo spoke up with an exasperated sigh

"I can't take this right now..." and like that Lucca's dad got up, grabbed his keys and left out the front doors

"I'm going to go make a few calls" Lucca said and got up walking over to the fireplace facing us

A few hours went by and Vincenzo came back in with a bunch of guys in uniform with hats

"Mrs Marissa Del'mario... You have been registered as a patient of Absterhill mental hospital... Please come with us" one of the men in uniform spoke up

Before she left through the doors, she turned to me and Lucca with teary eyes, you could see the regret clearly in them, I admit a part of me felt really sorry for her but I cant forget what she did to me... to Lucca

"I'm so sorry" she whispered softly and then they took her away

I don't know whether I should be happy or sad...

Happy that I won't be living a life in fear anymore...

Or sad because Lucca had to go through all of this...his own mother being the one to hurt us... The woman that raised him, called him her son and he called her his mom...

Vincenzo said he had work things to take care of... But we should make sure to come visit again whenever we like, his face held pain and sadness but you could also see he didn't want to discuss anything regarding Lucca's mother further

I looked over at Lucca and his face was emotionless... I touched his arm and looked up at him

"Want to go home?" I asked softly

"Yeah... Today was just too much for me... Let's go home baby" he kissed my forehead softly then we left and headed back home

Once we were at home

I had called my parents and told them about everything that happened today... They were happy seeing as though she got taken away and was getting help, but they also felt sad for Lucca and Vincenzo's part

Today was quite a day for the both of us, first the Steph and Max thing, then the incident with Marissa... It was a lot for one day... Right now I just want to cuddle with my big baby and comfort him, because that's all he really needs now, someone to comfort him
