The next morning//

"Pwease dada, mama!" Scarlett cries

She sits on the floor of the kitchen tugging at Danny's pants as he sits on the computer trying to figure out a way to get ahold of Jessica. He hadn't gotten any sleep. He was worried sick and frustrated at the same time. Everyone was. Danny was trying to find a way to get to Jessica if he didn't hear from her in the next few hours.

"Daddy!" Scarlett screams even louder

Danny began to angry he turned to Scarlett and yelled at her. "Your mother is gone! Stop it!" He says

Scarlett had never heard her father be so loud. She was frightened. Dorthy comes running in when she sees her granddaughter in tears. She understood Danny was mad right now, but taking it out on the kids was unacceptable.

"Danny! Why would you yell at her like this! She doesn't know any better!" Dorthy yells to him

Danny covers his face. "She wants her but I can't bring her back! She left!" Danny shoves the chair into the table and storms out of the kitchen and outside.

Albert comes in to see what's going on.

"That man! He scared her. She's too young to understand!" Dorthy says trying to sooth Scarlett.

"He's going through a tough time, Dorthy. I would know, I went through the same thing, remember?" Albert snaps as he goes to chase after Danny.

Dorthy huffs and turns away to go find Wyatt.

"I want my mama." She says to Dorthy.

"I know baby, you'll see her soon."

Albert comes outside to see Danny sitting on the steps of the porch. He looked so distressed. A few tears rolled down his face.

Albert sits down next to him and sighs. "I'm so sorry all of this happened, Danny."

He nods "Me too... I just don't understand why she'd leave... I'm scared she won't come back."

"She'll come back." He says sternly

"How do you know?"

"Let me tell you a story, Danny. Thirty five years ago Dorthy and I were about to get married. Everything was going fine. But something snapped inside her and she began to panic. Leading up to our wedding day she was stressed with plans and on top of it all she was nervous as hell. She became distant. One day I notice she isn't home. It turns out she flew to the Bahamas without telling anyone. She needed to get away and spend a few days to herself to reflect. She didn't leave because she didn't want to marry me or didn't love me, she left because she just needed a breather and time to think. That's what I think Jessica's doing."

Danny had never heard this story, but he was shocked. Hearing this gave him so hope. Danny was just making assumptions as to why Jessica may have left. He didn't know the full story.

"So did you just sit around and wait for her?"

Albert chuckles "no. I think she was sitting around waiting for me to come get her."

"I love her to death, Al. I want to marry her so badly. But if she doesn't want to marry me I don't know what I'm going to do."

"She wants to marry you Danny. Jessica, she's just notorious for running away." Albert says with a smile

Danny chuckles "Yeah, I know."

"Listen, if you don't hear from her by tonight I'll get you a ticket to see her."

"You don't have to do that."

"Let me, Danny. She's my daughter."

"I just pray to god she's okay."

"Scarlett, where are you, baby girl?" He says walking back into the house.

Dorthy sat on the couch with the twins. Scarlett dug her head into Dorothy's chest to hide from Danny. Dorthy was still angry with Danny. She gave him a stern look.

Danny sat next to Dorthy and mouthed "I'm sorry" to her.

"Scarlett, come here pretty girl." He says picking her up.

Scarlett fussed when she's taken from her grandmother but soon calms down.

"Hey, I love you.."

"Mama..." She whispers

"I'm going to go get mama, okay?"

She nods cutely and cries softly.

"Don't cry pretty girl."

"I sowey." She says

"I'm sorry... daddy didn't mean to yell."

"No yell, dada!" Wyatt says sternly

"That's right. No yelling."

Wyatt climbs into Danny's arms and he hugs both of his babies. It killed him that they missed Jessica so much. Danny was furious with her for doing this. A part of him was afraid he wouldn't be able to bring Jessica back.

"I love you both sooooo much."

Dorthy smiles when she sees Danny's connection with the twins. She knew he was scared of what was to happen. She was scared too. But Dorthy knew Jessica would never leave her children. They were her world. She just wished she knew what was going on.

Then, they heard a loud bang on the door.

Albert runs to the door and sees Sarah.

"I know where Jessica is!" She exclaims

"Mama!" Scarlett says picking up her head.

"No baby, that's auntie Sarah. Go play with your brother." Danny says sitting both twins down.

They all walk over to Sarah. They had a feeling she may know what's going on.

"We figured that part out. Have you heard from her?" Danny says anxiously

"Yes, she called me..."

"What! She did! Why didn't you tell us sooner. What's the number she called you off of!" Dorthy says

"I'm sorry... but she's okay... it was blocked..." Sarah reassures them.

"Then why the hell did she go to Hawaii!" Danny shouts

Albert puts his hand on Danny's shoulder so hopefully he'd calm down.

"She's scared..." Sarah says

"So she runs away? We are suppose to be getting married!"

"Danny!" Dorthy shouts

He sighs "I'm sorry..."

"You know how Jessica is. This stuff freaks her out. I think shes been overwhelmed and needed to... gosh I can't explain." Sarah says. It was hard for her to explain Jessica's reasoning. It didn't make a whole lot of sense to her either.

"I just can't believe she got up and left. We have children."

"It will all be okay, Danny. We will get your bride back."

Sarah clears her throat and looks down. They all look at her.

"If she even wants to come back..." Danny says looking at Sarah who wasn't sharing everything she knew.

Sarah sighs "I don't know if she's coming back..."
