Reminiscing on that very night brought me nothing but happiness. Who ever knew that I was going to meet my future wife that night?

After that small moment of reminiscing, I looked down and noticed that Chloe fell asleep in my arms and I started to smile. I laid her down on my chest and we fell asleep for the night and held her close in my embrace.

When it was morning, I started to rub my eyes as the sun's beam went through the curtains and shined in my face.

I groaned, "Fuck, is it morning already?"

"H-Huh?" Said Chloe, as she began rubbing her eyes with her fingertips.

"Good morning baby."

"Good morning."

"How did you sleep?" I asked.

"I slept pretty good."

"That's good." I paused, "Also, I wanted us to visit a counselor later today."

"I wouldn't mind, Joe. We definitely need one right now."

After many hours of the day passed, we started getting ready to attend our first ever therapy session with Dr. Greene.

As we made our way into Toronto Therapy Center, we checked ourselves in and waited for our names to be called by the receptionist.

"Mr. Anoa'i and Ms. Levine?"

We both stood up and escorted ourselves into the room. We took a seat and we were waiting for Dr. Greene to make their way inside the room.

"Are you ready, baby?" I asked.

"Somewhat."

After a few minutes passed, Dr. Greene finally arrived and he looked over at Chloe and I with a sincere smile before taking a seat.

"Hello, Mr. Anoa'i and Ms. Levine. My name is Dr. Greene and I'm here to be your therapist for the evening; or for as long as you need me." He shook our hands, "What brings you two in here today?"

"We're...We..." Chloe said, struggling.

"It's okay baby, I'll tell him."

I took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, "Chloe and I recently endured a miscarriage and the loss has been devastating and incredibly hard for the both of us."

"I'm so sorry for your loss, you two. And when it comes to our therapy session, don't hesitate to tell me everything. Anything that is said in this very room is confidential and will not be shared to anyone else."

"We appreciate it, Dr. Greene."

"Is the miscarriage the only thing that we're here for?"

I shook my head and glanced over at Chloe with a concerned facial expression, "Not exactly."

We paused for a moment and I looked over at Chloe and whispered, "You wanna tell him?"

She nods, "Yeah."

Chloe
While Joe and I were sitting around the therapist, I struggled to find the words about my miscarriage until Joe told him for me. However, talking about my suicide attempt is something that I was uneasy to talk about; but if we were going to move on from the situation, I needed to get everything off my chest.

I cleared my throat, "Ever since the miscarriage, I've had thoughts of suicide and I also survived a suicide attempt as I overdosed on painkillers. If it wasn't for my fiancé, I'd probably be dead right now." I choked up, "I've been taking this miscarriage extremely hard and this was the first ever pregnancy I've ever experienced, and we were nearing close to being able to visit the OG-BYN and seeing our baby on the ultrasound for the first time."

I placed my hand over my face and started sobbing uncontrollably all over again. With grief, sometimes it strikes you out of nowhere whether you talk about the situation or trying to explain your pain to someone.

"Again, I'm so sorry for your loss, Ms. Levine and Mr. Anoa'i." His head dropped, "I know losing a child isn't easy; however, I need to ask you one question and I know it won't be easy to ask..." Dr. Greene paused, "How did you suffer a miscarriage?"

I looked behind me to seeing Joe inhaling and exhaling slowly. It looked like he was fighting back tears in his eyes as he punched the bridge of his nose in attempt to hold them back.

"I don't think my fiancé will be able to explain his half of the story, but..."

"Babe, I'll tell him everything."

Joe
I looked at Dr. Greene, who was concerned in the face. His eyes shown signs of sympathy and disparity while we explained our situation to him.

"How the miscarriage happened..." I exhaled and looked over at Dr. Greene, "Chloe and I recently left my job meeting and we headed back home. While we were far away from our home, we almost collided with another car and it turned out to have my ex-wife and Chloe's ex-boyfriend inside. They've been trying to break us apart for almost an entire year as Chloe's ex-boyfriend tried to shoot us. Before that, they called a hitman on us and almost had Chloe killed as she sacrificed herself to protect me."

"Oh wow..." Dr. Greene said, "A hitman attack? Two ex-lovers? Weaponry? The miscarriage? Pardon my language but damn, you two have been through a lot."

"Yeah and what caused the miscarriage was the fact my ex-wife and Chloe ended up brawling and she ended up kicking around Chloe's stomach and she was stressed out with the entire situation..."

Although everything was kept confidential, I wasn't about to tell Dr. Greene that I murdered Joshua and blew his head off with a gun and enjoyed every moment of it.

"After everything was said and done, they were arrested and I noticed that Chloe was weak in the knees and she fainted in my arms. I looked down and noticed a thing of blood running down her leg and rushed her to the hospital..."

I didn't like remembering the night Chloe suffered a miscarriage with our child. Sadly, I remembered that night so clearly.

"You're coming with me, Galina." Said an officer as he shoved her against the police car and started to handcuff her.

"I haven't done a damn thing! That man is a cold-blooded murderer! He killed Joshua!"

"Move along, Becker."

The police drove off with Galina and before I knew it, Chloe began to faint in my arms.

"J-Joe..."

"I'm here baby." I crouched down, "Are you alright?"

"I don't feel good." She groaned, "I-I'm in pain, Joe..."

Chloe's vision grew blurry as she was starting to black out. I held her in my arms before she fell to her knees and I needed to rush her into the hospital after everything that just unfolded.

While I was putting Chloe in the car, I looked down and I noticed a small stream of blood running down her leg and she was experiencing pains back and forth.

There was blood smeared all over the leather seating and I started to grow more concerned as I pulled on the breaks and made my way to the hospital with Chloe.

"Don't die on me baby. Please be okay. I cannot lose you or the baby..."

Remembering that moment killed me on the inside. I looked over at Dr. Greene and explained more about the situation. The pain that I was beginning to feel was unbearable.

"That night when they rushed Chloe into the Intensive Care Unit, I was panicking while they were checking out her wounds and injuries. I was hoping for the best outcome that her and the baby were going to be okay, until a surgeon came out with his head lowered."

"I'm so sorry, Mr. Anoa'i. Were you aware that Ms. Levine was pregnant?"

"Yes...Why are we even talking about this right now? Is the baby okay? Is Chloe okay?"

"She's fine, but it's with deep condolences to inform you that the baby didn't make it. Ms. Levine endured a miscarriage."

Then my entire world went upside down from there.

I was in nothing but denial after hearing the news.

"No, you're joking with me, right?" I scoffed, "This has to be some kind of a sick joke..."

The surgeon shook his head, "Mr. Anoa'i, I would never joke about these type of situations. However, I think it would be best if you told her the unsettling news."

"I understand."

After the surgeon left, I went to a room all alone and punched around the walls and allowed the tears to run down my cheeks in anger and sadness. This wasn't supposed to happen.

"After the miscarriage, it was hard to explain the situation to Chloe. While she was under some heavy drugs, I called up her best friend and my two friends to be here for moral support. This was something that we never wanted to experience." I felt the tears beginning to well-up in my eyes once more, "I loved the baby before it was even born. I was more than excited for us to find out the gender and start decorating the bedroom the night after."

"Mr. Anoa'i. I'm here for you and Ms. Levine during this difficult time. As a parent myself, I could never imagine such a loss."

"It's definitely not easy."

It was a hard time explaining the entire situation to Dr. Greene. After almost two hours of opening up about the miscarriage, Chloe's suicide attempt, among other issues, it felt like a huge weight was lifted off our shoulders.

"Thank you so much, Dr. Greene, for being patient with us."

"Of course. It's my job to listen and help in the best way possible! If you two need anything, please don't hesitate to come back."

"We appreciate it."

After Chloe and I walked out of the therapy room and headed back home, she looked down at her knees.

"Are you okay, baby?"

"Somewhat. I'm still heartbroken about the miscarriage, but I also want to focus on our wedding at the same time once we get back home."

I nodded, "I understand baby. We can do that."

And after that, we returned home for the night and spent some quality time together in the meantime.
