First compare the options with before having to leave and before leaving.
so we have option B and E on one side and A,C and D on the other side.
before having to leave is wrong so eliminate option B and E.
Now in A,C and D,
A is suspicious because it has being
Thus we now have two options C and D,
to give to doesn't quite sound correct in option C.
So I go for option D.(Trying putting it in the main sentence that way it will make more sense to you.)
Can any verbal expert please confirm

2. Give someone something is idiom.
3. It have to complete sentence.
so:

So the answer is D
