Massimo: (cercando di controllare le sue emozioni) Io... Piccolo miracolo,  per favore non piangere più! La principessa più bella del mondo non deve piangere.

Massimo: Little miracle, please don't cry anymore! The most beautiful princess in the world, she must not cry.

Laura pov:

I was watching Maya and Massimo when my little one suddenly started crying.

I look at Massimo, not understanding what happened, but it's as if Massimo sees through me. All his attention was on Maya.

To my desperation the dialogue between them was in Italian, and I didn't understand anything.

I look worriedly at Domenico and Olga.

Domenico understands my anxiety, and translated the conversation between them two.

I was completely upset, I didn't know how to react. After a few seconds I got even closer to them.

Stroking my little one on her back and trying to look into Massimo's eyes, but he was looking away.

Laura: Maya, baby, come to Mommy , we have to go now, but I promise we'll be back.

Maya hugs Massimo even harder, and she tells me without looking into my eyes.

Maya: I don't want to, I don't want to go home! I want to stay here, at least a little please, please!

Laura pov:

My repeated attempts to take Maya out of Massimo's arms resulted in nothing more than tears streaming down Maya's face.

Massimo whispered phrases to her in Italian trying to calm her down, but without any result.
At one moment Domenico and Olga approaches us.

Domenico: Maya, angel , can you come with Uncle Domenico a little?

Maya: (rispondendo in italiano) E tu, vuoi che me vada, vero?

Maya: (answering in Italian) And you, want me to leave, don't you?

Domenico: Principessa, siamo sempre stati migliori amici, vero?

Domenico: Princess, we've always been best friends, haven't we?

Maya: Esatto

Maya: That's right

Domenico: Allora per favore fidati di me! Vieni a parlare un po'?

Domenico: Then please trust me! Are you coming to talk a little?

Maya: Se vengo con te, Don non sta per partire, vero?

Maya: If I come with you, Don won't leave, will he?

Massimo: Ragazzina, non vado da nessuna parte, lo prometto!

Massimo: Little girl, I'm not going anywhere, I promise!

Domenico: Maya, sei una ragazza grande e intelligente, e ho visto che parli molto bene l'italiano.

Domenico: Maya, you are a big and intelligent girl, and I saw that you speak Italian very well.

Domenico: Puoi dirmi cosa intende Don?

Domenico: Can you tell me what Don means?

Maya: Don significa capo.

Maya: Don means boss.

Domenico: Esatto! Ma sai cosa fa esattamente un Don?

Domenico: Exactly! But do you know what exactly a Don does?

Maya: Penso di sì.

Maya: I think so.

Domenico: Cosa fa un Don?

Domenico: What does a Don do?

Maya: È come un leader, il capo della famiglia. È forte. Una persona a cui tutti obbediscono e seguono i suoi ordini.

Qualcuno coraggioso, che fa di tutto per proteggere coloro che ama.

E, soprattutto, un Don mantiene sempre le sue promesse.

Maya: It's like a leader, the head of the family. It's strong. A person that everyone obeys and follows his orders.

Someone brave, who does everything to protect those he loves.

And most importantly, a Don always keeps his promises.

All 4 are amazed by Maya's answer.
