..................................

My tummy is doing double flips and my palms are sweating, I've always been waiting for this moment, everything I've ever wondered about or even asked myself will be answered now.

I'm sitting and in front of me is mother and Sonia and beside me is Williams holding my hand with his both hands.

I asked from him to be by my side

We are still at his parent's residence; this is the morning after the incident happened yesterday. We are currently at a mini living room.

Sonia is playing around with her dress fabric nervously; mother cleared her throat and sat straight, staring at me now.

" caro when I start speaking please do not interrupt me. After I'm done you can ask me whatever you want, si?" she said and I nodded in agreement and my hand grip tighten around Williams.

Here we go.

"I will tell you a short story si. so there was two Italian sisters , they were living a very hard life and by hard I do not mean poor , no in fact they were rich but their family was bad .. very bad in treating them and they always kept them prisoned at home. Their family was a part of a very known and dangerous Italian mafia. The elder sister was promised at the age of 22 to marry the elder son of another Italian mafia family, she and her sister refused to bow down, they had no one but themselves. So they planned to escape home and leave Italy for good" she said and I'm on the edge of my seat already.

What does this has to do with papa again ?

Anyways I decided to be patient and hear everything mother has to say.

"it was very hard to actually escape their family's fortress but with a miracle they did it . for two days they kept running not stopping for a second because by that time they already knew that the whole Italy is looking for them. While they were hiding in the forest they saw a guy sitting under a tree humming a song while writing, he looked as if he's on some kind of expedition. He met them and when they told him their story he vowed that he'll save them and take them with him to his home town, America ." she said with a faint smile at the end and my heart beats pick up , I think I might know who that American writer was.

"he did as he promised and succeeded in saving them with the help of a friend. At America he provided them shelter, a place to stay in, he had no one but himself so taking care of them wasn't hard. He provided them jobs too. During the process he and the young sister fell in love, he was everything she could ever ask for, he saved her life and protected her from her own family, he treated her like a queen and never made her eyes shed a tear, she was the luckiest of them all to have him in her life. They got married and he let her continue her collage and she graduated medical school, her sister lived with them and was always there, then the younger sister got pregnant with a beautiful babygirl and gave birth to her. Everything was perfect, it was more than perfect. they were a complete family, the father, the mother, the daughter and the ante " she paused to catch her breath because she's crying so bad , Sonia as well as if she knows too well what mother is saying.

I can't even begin to say what my state is at the moment , all I'm feeling around me is Williams tight arms around me and my head on his chest and my tears are soaking his shirt.

"but as they say, everything beautiful must come to an end , their end was too soon, it was a week before the kid's 8th birthday when the father received a warning phone call and a package with their pictures in it. they found them, the mafia boss's son who was the next in line to rule their mafia, the one who was promised to marry the elder sister, he was ruthless. For 10 years he has been filled with rage towards the man and the two traitor sisters, who betrayed their family and made him and his father look like fools in front of the other Italian mafia families. On the girls 8th birthday they came a-a-nd... they beaten up the f-father, they.. they took him away an-and...." She didn't had to continue , I already know. she can't contain her sobs anymore, me neither or Sonia.
