I grew up in Italy with my mother...Until she was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. I was 17 years , I felt my whole world crush before my eyes my mother saw the tears running down my face like a stream that wouldn't 't stop.
"My dear don't cry mommy will be okay" My mother said wearily.
"M-Mom you promise" I said stuttering.
"I promise you my little angel" she said
"Mom I told you to stop calling me that" I said laughing wiping away my tears
My mother kiss my forehead gently. I could feel her dry lips on my forehead...But promises were meant to be broken... my mother died the of my birthday
When my father heard about the news of my mother's passing, he booked a flight that same week, when he saw me for the first time in 2 years, he couldn't hold back the tears that build up in his eyes as he hugged me
"You have your mother's eyes" he said softly smiling through tears
I couldn't help the salty tears from running down my face as he said those words
My father lead me to a fancy porch car as he told a man in a suit to finish up the funeral preparation and send him the price of it all, after he was done speaking to the man, he shut the door and enter the driver's seat.
"Adrienna I want you to meet someone very special to me. They are at the hotel that I am staying at you will be moving back to American with us." He said looking at my reaction through the rear-view mirror.
"Okay..." I said softly looking out the window

We arrived at the hotel it was huge , when I entered the door of the hotel it was quite luxurious this was the first time I ever been in a hotel. We went inside the elevator my dad pressed the 3rd floor.
"Dad I miss mom so much..." I said softly with tears running down my cheeks
He looked at me sadly and wiped away the tears from my eyes and kissed my forehead
"I know I miss her too Rienna" he said smiling trying to hide his sadness from me
We reach at the 3rd floor as we enter a room I saw a beautiful lady pasting the room she looked nervous as soon as she saw us she smiled gently, she had long wavy light brown hair that was braided with hazel eyes.
"Hi you must be Adrienna, I heard a lot of thing about you sweetheart, I am so happy to finally meet you, I'm Brianna" She said with a lovingly smiling

She smiled at the comment I said to her "Thank you, you look very beautiful too Adrienna, you have your mother's eyes. But there someone I would Love or you to meet sweetheart, my son Damien" She said then called out to him.
"DAMIEN LYON COME OUT HERE THIS INSTANTS?!" she shouted quite loudly.
He came out of his room our eyes lock for a few second until he looked away from me.
I felt my heart skipped a beat as he sat on the chair in front of Brianna that was facing me.
He was wearing just a black joggers as his wet jet black messy hair cover his face it looked as i he just came out the shower. Leaning back on the chair, he stared at his mother unamused.
"Did you have to scream like that loud? I could of easily heard you."
"My bad, Darling" Brianna said with a smile
He caught me staring at him again, this time he looked at me straight in my eyes and smirked.
"Who is this kid? She keeps staring at me, I know I'm good looking so I don't blame her" He said smiling.
