Diego's POV:

Once again I hear Selvaggia singing in her dressing-room and this time no one was nearby to interrupt so I decided to go in to talk to her.

The last time she didn't seem to be mad at me, or anything so I wanted to talk to her again to make sure she really isn't mad, or sad.

But as I was about to knock on the door I suddenly heard someone calling out to me that gave me shivers...

- Mr. Diego!

It was Simona Ventura.

This is great.

- Good day, Simona - I said, trying to stay calm and not look like a jerk.

- Yeah, yeah - she smiled - Anyway... I saw you planning something with Milly earlier and I was just curious about that!

- Ah... Uhm... Yeah, but it's a secret! - I replied - This is something that no one knows about, but only Milly and I told Clari about it too.

- But still... What are you planning exactly?

----- MEANWHILE -----

Selvaggia's POV:

Getting ready to go home now and I suddenly heard voices from near my door.

As I peeked out I saw Diego and Ventura talking...

- But still... What are you planning exactly? - Ventura asked him and he seemed to be not wanting to tell her something.

- All I can tell you that it's going to be a duett that I'll sing with someone that is really important to me - Diego said mysteriously which now made me curious too.

A duett? Who is he going to sing?

As I was thinking I didn't notice that Ventura left and Diego was looking at me with a cheeky smile on his face.

- Oh! Hello! Uhm...

- Have you been spying on me? - he asked, smiling at me.

- What?! N-No! You two were talking at my door so of course I peeked out to see who's it!

- Okay - he said, still smiling - Anyway... Can I take you home?

- Yeah... I mean no! Well... Not home because I have an interview at the library soon so...

- Then I'll take you there... If you let me - he said, now smiling warmly at me that makes me melt all the time.

- Okay... - I mumbled then we headed out.

After a while when we were finally outside he sighed deeply in frustration...

- This woman is crazy... - he groaned.

- Who's crazy? - I asked him, a bit confused.

- Ventura!

This made me laugh.

- She actually likes you more than you'd think.

- This is what I was really afraid of - he sighed.

- Oh really?

- Yes! Maybe I sound a bit pathetic, but this is the truth.

- No, it doesn't... Actually...

- I only want one woman's attention, but seems like it's harder than I thought - he said while he was looking straight into my eyes and I knew he's referring to me by this.

- Maybe that woman likes you... You just don't see it yet - I said - Now let's go!

He just smiled and nodded than we headed off together...
