Vito enters the rehab facility carrying a bag full of things for Autumn. He hadn't checked on her since she got admitted and he felt like it would be good for her to know she has someone support her along the way. Everytime he thought about her,he thought about his own daughter being there.

"Good morning what can I do for you?" The familiar voice questions looking up

"Good morning Kelly." He answers getting her attention

"Mr.Hernandez, how are you? "

"I'm fine,just dropping some things off here for Autumn.How has she been?"

"At first she was a little violent,she Expressed she didn't know us but she got used to it once she saw the pool and other things we have to offer."

"Can I see her or would I have to wait?"

Kelly nods and motions her hands towards her.

"She's up for breakfast now."

Vito nods and smiles. He waits for her to unlock the door before they enter in the back. Then his mind started going wild again.

"Does Lala still work here?"

"Uhhh no she quitted about a month ago." Kelly answers looking at him

The rest of the walk to Autumn was quick and short.

"Before you give her the bag I have to check it. I know you wouldn't put anything in the bag but they have cameras."

Kelly points up causing Vito to stare at the cameras pointing directly down on them.

"Alright"

He hands her the bag and watches as she looks around in the bag. She hands it back to him and leads him to the familiar spot he once sat.

"Autumn you have a visitor "

Victor stretches his arm with the bag out smiling.

"Vito"

She smiles and stands up out of her seat.

"What's this?"

She hadn't been in the facility for long but she's starting to look better. Her hair finally cleaned and combed.

"I bought you a few more things"

Autumn grabs the bag and places it on the table.

"Well thank you Kelly,I have it from here."

Kelly walks away leaving the two alone.

"So how do you like it here?" Vito questions

"I love it,the people are nice, the food is okay."

"Do you have a clue where your brother might be?"

"Uhh yeah,he's with my sperm donor."

Vito frowns in confusion to her response.

"So why were you on the streets instead of with your father?"

"I don't really talk to my father. He was never there."

"Did he know you were doing drugs?" Vito questions grabbing a seat in front of the table.

"I left his house before we could talk. Why talk about it,he left for a reason, right?"

Vito stares in Autumn's eyes watching her try to hide the tears that so badly wanted to slip away. Her throat started to burn causing her to look down at her fingers. Vito didn't know how to respond to her question. He just understood that she needed a hug. He raises from the chair and steps out of his space to give her what she needed.

"Come on Autumn"

He stretches his arms out and watches her swiftly leave her seat to hug him. Autumn couldn't cry in front of him but the way she squeezed his torso made Vito hug her back. He could feel her pain,everything she's been through felt oh so familiar.

Vito

I feel bad for Autumn. At the age of Seventeen she should be worrying about what college she could go to. I'm positive she doesn't go to school,which means she would need to go for her G.E.D. .

"I really don't know what to say. Some father's are the best and some men don't deserve to be called fathers. I too had a bad sperm donor,he was sort of absent in my life,he just made my life miserable. He did things to me that I'm sure you're glad you never had to witness."

I look down at her to see her raise her head from off of my stomach. She makes back eye contact with me before questioning me.

"What did he do?"

"Uhhh, think of the worst thing you can think of."

Talking about what Dave did to me is still a fresh wound for me. I can't go around telling people that. Telling someone your father shot a guy in front of you isn't normal. The amount of pity I'd get is a disgrace,I don't care for it and I don't need it.

"It was that bad?"

I give her a nod,watching her place her head back on my torso.

"Seems like you're the one who needs a hug."

"Thanks, but I get more than enough hugs."

I drop my arms from around her and feel as she does the same. She steps back a little and places her hands behind her back.

"Do you have your father's address,I have to tell him,at least let him know you're safe."

"I didn't really care to get his address. As long as he took my brother and made sure he's okay is all that mattered"

"Can you tell me his name?" I question hoping that she has an answer to this question.

"Dave Hernandez."

Hearing that name leave her lips made me choke on oxygen. She couldn't be talking about Dave. Their has to be another Dave Hernandez that Autumn is talking about.

"Say that again for me."

I scratch at my head hoping that another name would leave her lips and that I was maybe hallucinating seconds ago.

"Dave Hernadez"

"Your one of them."

"I'm who?" She questions looking at me weirdly

This is my sister in front of me. This whole damn time I knew my sister. Oh I'm going to kill him.

"I'm your older brother"

"You're Victor?" She questions shockingly

"Yes,I'm your big brother."

Autumn places her arms back around him and squeezes him tighter then she did before.

"I always wanted an older brother"

"Well now you got one." I responded by hugging her back.

I would have hugged her tighter but I didn't want to hurt her. Dave is one of the most irresponsible person I know. Stupid doesn't even fit his caliber.

Vito left his sister an hour ago. He sits in his car waiting in the garage. Madison heard him and waited patiently on him. She needed him to watch the kids so she could go out with Raniyah to pick up their dresses. She waited for a while until she realized he wasn't coming in. She slides on her house slippers and makes her way downstairs. She opens the garage door to see him in his car relaxing. She continues further in the garage and opens his door.

"Victor why are you still in here?" She questions bending down so she could face him

"Go head inside,I'll be there in a minute"

Madison frowns staring at his face.

"Baby are you okay?"

Vito turns his head to look at her. He nods his head and watches her stare back at him. Besides her breast he couldn't get her eyes out of his mind.

"What, you want a kiss?" He questions sitting up

"Uhh actually I wanted you to watch the kids. I need to be somewhere with Raniyah,but if you're not in the mood I'll take them with me."

Vito shakes his head.

"Leave them and do what you got to do."

"Are you mad at me?" She questions biting her lip nervously

She felt like they went to bed fine . They hadn't argued and they left on good terms this morning.

"Should I be mad at you?" He questions

"I don't know Victor ...we went to bed happy and woke up kissing."

"Ivy I ain't mad at you. Go out and have fun."

She stands up but her hand is yanked back. She looks back down to see Vito looking at her with his mouth wide open.

"Where my kiss at?"

"I didn't know if you wanted me touching you right now." She answers leaning in

"You know better, when we leave each other we kiss each other bye."

Vito presses his lips onto hers while placing his hand on her chin.

"Mhmm baby I have to go." She says pulling back

"One more."

She presses her lips back onto his just to feel him trap her lip between his teeth. He releases her lip and slides his hand inside of her shirt,to grope one of her breasts.

"Now you know I have to leave right now."

"I'm not doing anything. Just wanna kiss you bye."

"No Victor, did you buy the tickets yet?"

"Have my own jet Ivy."

"I forgot" she smiles

"I bought you something to wear." He mumbles leaning his forehead on hers

"What did you get me?" She smiles

"Just a beautiful set,that I can't wait to take off of you."

He rubs his hands back and forth against her bottom.

"Are you sure you're taking it off?" She asks biting her lip moving her head back

"You wanna bet money I'm the one taking it off?"

"Hmmm I can bet better." She answers

"Ivy get your ass out of here before I strip you naked."

"What if that's what I want?"

Vito smirks and shakes his head.

"That ain't what you want right now. If I strip you naked you ain't leaving this house for a while and I know you want to be a good friend so go ahead and leave."

Madison places her fingers in his face and watches as he nods.

"Go head and stop playing,have fun"

Madison leaves through the back door and walks around to the front to meet up with Raniyah's car.

"Girl what took you so long?" Raniyah questions looking at Madison enter the car

"I was talking to Victor."

"Knowing him,yall probably was having sex."

Madison looks out the window chuckling to herself.

"Not even,what made you say that?" She questions

"Madison since you got a taste of dick you have been a complete freak. Girl you don't even look the same anymore,you don't even act the same."

"I do so." She argues

"No you don't and you know it"

The ride to the bridal shop filled with loud music and conversations.

"So what do you think you and Smiles are having?"

"I think it's going to be a boy."

"Shoot I swore Cairo was a girl by the way my emotions were on the peak." Madison Expresses shaking her head

"I know Victor was tired of me."

"D hated the fact that all I wanted was sweets and now he has to go through it all over again."

"Victor thinks I'm having another baby soon but he's wrong. Birth control is going to set him right."

"I should have just gotten on it when the nurse told me."

Madison smiles and places her hand on her stomach.

"Are you ready for this wedding?"

"I have never been so ready. Smiley is the best thing that has ever happened to me...well besides my Ava,love my daughter so much" She smiles

"That's great."

"You and Victor are next. Dre and Warren are just some confusing bunnies."

"I don't know about that. Dre is a great guy,not surprised if he got married on us. He ghosted us." Madison replies

"Yes you're right about that. Warren is the one who needs help. He sticks his tiny man anywhere he can get it."

"He called Victor the other day asking him to go for support to the hospital. He thought he was burning." Madison says giggling

"That is a mess...he needs to do better."

Raniyah parks the car and both ladies leave the car to head into the bridal shop.

"These dresses are gorgeous." Madison coos smiling widely at the white dresses

She actually wanted to try on all of them.

"Good day ladies,How can I assist you today?" A guy questions stepping in front of them.

Both ladies stare into the guy's ocean blue eyes.

"Umm,uhhh Madison why are we in here?" Raniyah asks still staring at him

"Uhhh to umm girl uh yo-

"Are you single?" Raniyah asks making Madison snap out of it

"Girl."

Madison slaps her hand against Raniyah's arm to see her finally out of her daze.

"We're here to pick up her wedding dresses- I meant mine.

The man nods and smiles between the two brown goddesses before him.

"Can I have your name?" He asks staring at Raniyah

"It's Raniyah Sanders, but you sir can call me-

"He can call you by your name." Madison butts in getting the attention of both the worker and Raniyah

He chuckles looking between the two.

"How many dresses?"

"Uhh two dresses."

Both friends watch the man as he walks off.

"Girl, that man is fine right there. He looks likes a Robin Thicke two point O." Raniyah squeals

"Girl you're getting married talking about some Robin two point O."

"Girl you should be the last one talking. Let Vito see how big your eyes got on him,they were getting popped out." Raniyah laughs

"bye, Victor doesn't run anything over here."

"Uhh I like to beg to differ. If Vito calls you right now to bring your ass home,you're going." Raniyah smiles

"Actually your part wrong. I'd only go because the babies are home but if they weren't I wasn't going anywhere. Victor doesn't run shit."

"Ouuu okay, say less, we're going out tonight."

"Fine."

"Which means you're staying over my house. You're not going home to Victor."

"Okay." Madison shrugs

"I have both dresses for you."

The handsome white man walks back in front of the two leaving them start struck again.

"Do you like black women?" Raniyah blurts out causing Madison to gasp

"Yes,I do." He smiles

"White chocolate." Raniyah whispers in Madison's ear

"Girl get away from me."

"Thank you for our dresses sir. I paid online."

"Well have a great day you two." He answers politely
