ALBERTO'S POV-

It's him. It's actually him, he actually came back? Too many emotions bottle up. HE stands up and walks over to me. " Alberto... I haven't seen you in- "
" 5 years " I say. He looks a little uncomfortable. " Yes..." He says.
" Well leave you alone to...talk.." Daniella says. Everyone walked outside leaving me and my father alone. Luca looked at me sadly for a second before also walking away. I could cry right now but my “dad” isn't worth that one bit.
" What are you doing here? " I ask.
" I wanted to see you..." Dad says.
" Why?! It's not like you didn't leave on purpose! " I yell. " Alberto please calm down " He tries to calm me. " No! I don't want you here! " I yell. " I know you don't- "
" So why are you here?! I don't need you anymore! I have my family " I say crossing my arms. " Please give me a chance... I realized my wring doings " Dad says. " Just some days ago you ran away from me when I saw you! " I say.
" Yes because I was scared! I didn't mean to- "
" Hurt me? Well you did! I want you to go away! " I yell. " I'm not going to do that son."
" Don't call me son " I say. He sighs and looks around. " I see that you've lived here for a while? " Dad says as he looked at a picture with me and Massimo with some fishes. He reaches to take it but I snatch it and hold it tight.
" Ye- yes..Massimo adapterd me " I explain. Dad kneels down to me and puts his hand on my shoulder
" Look I'm sor- " I push his hand away from me. " There's nothing you can do to make it better! You blamed me for mom's death and abused me for years! " I yell. He doesn't say anything. " It was much better when you were gone! " I yell some more. " I don't want to ever see or talk to you! Don't ever come to my house ever again! " I yell and run out.

LUCA'S POV-

Alberto runs past me. " Alberto wa- " massimo stops me. " Let him go for a while, he needs to be alone " Massimo says. Alberto climbs up to the treehouse. I feel so bad for him. He's probably so confused and angry. The father walks outside. " Well, he doesn't want to have anything to do with me for now, so I'll come back tomorrow " The dad says. I look at Giulia who seemed like she was about to punch him. The father leaves and we all enter back home. I look up to the treehouse and hear some sobs. I sigh and go up there. Alberto is in the Fetal position and cries a little. I don't know what I should Do. We're on such bad terms it would be strange to just, Talk as if nothing happened? But then again we are still friends. I sigh and tap his shoulder. He quickly sits up and cleans his face, then looks at me. " What do YOU want?! " He asks. " I'm sorry..." I apologize. " Cool " Alberto murmurs. Without thinking I just hug him, he hugs back for a second but then pushes me. " I want to sleep " Alberto says. " Aren't you hungry? " I ask. " No, good night " he rolls himself on the pillows and closes his eyes. I lay down too. Alberto turns to the other side and now all I can see is his back. I sigh and look up to the stars. Today was a weird day. I hope it gets better. " Can I hold your hand Luca?  " Alberto suddenly asks. That feeling comes back again and I don't know how to react. I want to hold his hand but is it right to do it? I sigh and just grab it holding it close to me. He turns around to me abd we both stare at each other.
" Are you going to be ok? " I ask. He nods slowly. " Just hold my hand " Alberto says and then closes his eyes. I look at him for a little. I then look up again and try to sleep.

GIULIA'S POV-

I fell asleep really late and only got like what, 4 hours sleep? On top of that dad said he'd prefer if I'd help him fish instead of Alberto. I mean I get why but I had to wake up at 6! " Papà, " I call. He looks at me. " Can't we do this another day? I'm tired " I say. " I'm sorry Giulietta, these days are where people order the most fish..." I groan. " Fine it's no biggie " I say smiling. Dad sighs. We jump on his boat and sail to the middle of the ocean. " Papà " I call him as I fixed the fishing net. " Mhm "
"...why did you let albertos dad in yesterday? " I ask. " Because it's his dad " dad answers. " Yeah but, Alberto isn't a big fan of him you know? " I say as I look at the island. I really wonder what could be in the island. " It's his father, am I supposed to not let him talk to his son? " Dad asks. " He doesn't even act like He's, he's father! I think he sees you more as father than HIM " I say. Dad stops a second and then doesn't say nothing, just pulls the fishing net out if the water. " It's great you have friends that know fish " He says happy to see such a big catch.
