Mazikeene is a name the whole Lombardi family knows. Mazikeene Valentina-Rose Lombardi was the Lomardi family's pride and joy until one night there was an attack at Lombardi's house, when everything went downhill.

I woke up in the same chair with my back hurting, and the lady, whose name I still don't know, came in and said, "Oh good, you're awake, so we got the results from the DNA test and called your dad, and he is about 20 minutes away." I don't know how to respond to that. I mean, my mom told me that it's not my dad's fault I never got to see him and my brothers, but at the time when she told me I was only about 7 or 8, so I didn't understand.
She then got up and left, leaving me in my thoughts, which is always a bad idea. For some reason, whenever I'm caught up in my thoughts, I always think of the bad.
They're going to hate you.
I mean, how can people love such an ugly girl?
The voice in the back of my head spoke, repeating it over and over again, and I think I believe it.
I don't know how long I was sitting there when there was a knock on the door. The lady came back, but this time with 2 men, who I believe are my father and brother. The moment I looked at their faces, all I could remember was my mother telling me that my family was the Italian mafia. I heard stories about them, like how they kill in a second with no remorse, and that's only made me believe the voices more.

After I hung up, I went down the stairs with my son following close behind. I knew the family would all be in the living room when I walked in. I stared talking, "I have important news to tell." I started off by having them all stop what they were doing and look at me, but they didn't stop watching TV. "As I was saying, I have important news: your sister Mazikeene is Matteo, and Mattie's triplet will be coming back."
'Dun dun dun'
Right when I finished talking, that sound came from the TV, and everyone was trying to hold back their laughter.
"I'm so sorry we where watching a mystery movie; now, what is this about Mazikeene, which we have not seen in 13 years?" Matteo and Mattie said it at the same time, in between laughter. "Who names their kid Mazikeene, like, what's her name, Mazikeene, something with a V Lombardi?"
My daughter Lena said, with my son Luciano staring daggers into her head because for some reason he never liked Lena personally, I think she is my daughter and the Italian mafia princess.
"Actually, her name is Mazikeene Valentina-Rose Lombardi. You forgot the rose Vanda." Luciano said, "Daddy, mommy, tell him to stop calling me Vanda; he knows I don't like it." Lena wines, "I call you Vanda because that's your name, and don't call him daddy; he's not your dad, and you're like, What's 16?" He says it again, walking out of the living room.
After about 17 minutes of talking, me and my son, Antony, leave to get on the plane and get my princess back.
When we get to the station, I go to the desk and tell them I'm here to pick up my daughter. Not a second later, a girl comes over to me and my son and says, "Hi, my name is Mrs. Kathie; I'm the one that called, and I just need you to sign some paperwork, and I will take you to Mazikeene." After she is done, she takes me to a room with a beautiful girl, which I'm guessing is Mazikeene; she looks just like her mother. A second later, she stands up and shakes our hands and says, "Well,I'm Mazikeene and you must be. My father and brother." She held her head high like she owns, the place, and obviously she was taught some manners: "Well, you are correct; I'm your brother Antony, and this is our father Stefano." Anthony says back, "Well, you guys could leave. I already know that Mazikeene will be in great hands." Mrs. Kathie says smiling as Mazikeene grabs her bags, but Antony grabs them from her hands, and we make our way to the car. "We are all absolutely thrilled to have you back, Mazikeene," I say as we drive to the airport. The ride was silent when we got on the plane. I was thinking she was going to say the plane looked so fancy or something like that, but all she did was climb up the stairs to the door of the plane like it was her 85th time in a private jet. When we all sat down, she spoke up, "So how many siblings do I have?"
"Well, there are our half-siblings Alex and Al, then your triplets Matteo and Mattie, then your step-sister Vanda, but everybody calls her Lena, then the twins Alfredo and Luciano, then Raphael, Nicklo, and me, so all together there are 10 siblings," Antony said. The rest of the ride was us trying to get to know everyone.
