Joe POV

Out of all the things that have happened its makes me wonder did I want Monica and I too bad? Was it all worth it? My brother is dead. I sit back and think, this girl have out me through hell and high water only to hear her say she doesn't know at the end of the day. I have my own doubt and insecurities about myself and wanted us because once in my life, something seemed right.

Joe was standing by the water with a box in his hand. He opened it to reveal the ring that he proposed to Monica with. He was contemplating on tossing it ALL to the ocean and letting it all go.

London POV

When you hurt you do things to hurt other people. I have slept in a bed of lies that I have built onto myself. I lied to myself for so long that I'll be the one she married. I'll be the one she'll build a life with. She'll be the one to support me in my dreams and be my number one fan but that's not happening. I often wonder what kind of woman lay down and get up with no emotion? Our child's death only strengthen her ability to use and abuse men's heart and it'll take the right one to mend that brokenness along with Christ above. Too bad cuz I wanted it to be me.

Randy POV

I can't help but get frustrated when seeing her with him and it makes me want to kill him and take off with her. He could never understand her pain and suffering like I can. I was her safety that she ran to. And he think he can bark some orders, have sex with her and give her a child and I'll forget and forgive. I want revenge on a colder platter than he served me.

Derrick POV

Derrick, "Mitch Morris. You always was a great employee back when I owned that car lot. So what do you do today?"

Mitch, "Well right now I'm head detective with my brother Dewayne."

Derrick, "Dewayne, that name sounds awfully familiar."

Mitch, "You know Dewayne, I heard you guys was old rivals."

Derrick, "Exactly. The man who tried to steal my wife and kids. The man who thought that he could actually be better than me when we went to the pros. But newsflash still till this day he don't and won't have my wife. And tell him his time breathing is ticking."

Mitch, "Is that a threat?"

Derrick, "It's a promise and you should tell him because you'll see him real soon."

Dewayne POV

Something just didn't feel right so I went outside to check then I came back inside to see Vanessa asleep on the couch so I just took her to a guest bedroom. He texted Monica, no response. He texted Joe, no response. An hour later he was talking on the phone with his captain and his cellphone lost signal, rain, thunder and lightning started and the lights went out. As the Dewayne went around the house he found candles and lit them.

All of a sudden a brick busted some glass outside. Dewayne got startled but pulled himself together and went outside with his gun and flashlight. He saw that his car back glass was busted out. He shined a light on the damage and as he flashed the light he saw his trunk pried.

He opened his truck and saw his brother Mitch stuffed into his truck lying in a pool of blood, dead.

As Dewayne started crying over his brother he heard tires stretching and he pulled put his gun and started chasing the truck and shooting at it. He realized that was almost like the same truck that was at Joe's family reunion.

Dewayne, "So maybe this guy wasn't after Monica but after me the whole time."

Dewayne went upstairs and packed sending Joe and Monica a message, "Hi, thanks for letting stay here but I should be going now. Things have happened and I pray that you guys will heal and be able to get on with your lives as a married couple and enjoy parenthood. I'm glad that I was here to meet some amazing people and help keep Monica safe but Monica doesn't need me anymore she have you, Joe. So no matter what don't give up and give people the satisfaction."
