AngeloI wake up from falling asleep on the Jet and check my phone *5:42 am * meaning we must be landing in Italy. I decide to text one of my security guards At the Penthouse in New York to get an update on Dio... I get a response how Dio is better and is finishing his late dinner while watching young & the restless and complaining about a character named victor.
* an hour later* "Landing in Venice Italy, Marco polo Airport!" The Pilot announced...
I began to grab my briefcase and Mack grabs the bags as we walk off the plane (I carry my own duffel bag and suitcase) and transfer to The vehicle prepared... "Where to?" Mack asks, "Lets stop by My father's first, Then go to my Estate to settle in! " I respond
" Okay sir!""thanks!"
after an 1 hour drive I arrive to my father's Mansion, He is wealthy but I didn't get my success handed to me unlike him I'm only stopping by to say hi to Delilah and have my Father and Dio speak about this anonymous Man (Francesco) who ruined my life so I can get leads on the "truth" of what really happened 5 years ago and be done with my past haunting me....
Mack drives through the opened gates after I enter in the security pin code....
Before I walk in I button up my suit and make sure there isn't a spec on it since my father likes to point out any imperfection....
The truck is parked, I began to Walk to the front door and I'm greeted with Greta the family house keeper
" Ciao Angelo!" she hugs me" Ciao Greta!" I hug her back, Then Delilah runs up and gives me a tight hug
"Angeloooo you're home!"
"Hi Delilah!" I respond
My father walks in as Greta and Delilah glare with an awkward silence-
" Ciao Son, so You're back in Italy" My father says in a tone of sarcasm-"Ciao, Lucas!" I respond dryly
"What brings you by Angelo and can you stay for Lunch?" Delilah asks me happily
"I got a little homesick and wanted a break from New York, I need to speak with Lucas about my mother and the past...
I wish I could Delilah Thankyou for offering, but I have some things to do at the business Inc. Today!""okay not a problem, Well I will let you and your Father talk and good to see you again!" Delilah says hugging me again as she leaves upstairs...
"what is it about your mother and the past?!" He asks as we both go sit down in the empty Living room at the table...
"Its about how you got me into Street fighting at 15 Y/o to help pay back the gambling money you owed, so we could keep a roof over our heads and then I get drugged and lose a fight and Mom gets killed right by you and you couldn't save her!!!" I respond while holding the lump of pain in my throat-
" Look, Angelo You were a grown man and needed to step up and help provide for your family and be a man while I was sick-"
"NO, I WAS FIFTEEN- you kept gambling and mom tried to get you help for your addiction, you didn't want help. You were not sick you just didn't care so you had me to start street fighting... I didn't come here to listen to you repeat the same pathetic excuse and manipulative quote you said five years ago..." I angrily say while trying to stay calm.
"lets just forget what I Said and okay then what is it?" he asks
" have you ever heard of a Francesco back when I was fighting?" I ask him not mentioning Dio.
