My eyes awaken to a familiar sight but I close my eyes, trying to go back to sleep but a deep voice wakes me. "Irene." I hear Elliott call. "Hmm..?" I groan. "Irene wake up." Elliott shakes me. "Irene wake up." I mock him with the same tone, I hear Elliott laugh. "Seriously?" Elliott looks down at me as I slowly open my eyes. "Your father is calling you for something." Elliott informs. "Ok.." I lay up from bed.

I watch Elliott leave my room and I get out of bed before heading to my bathroom. I brush my teeth and take a quick shower, after I finish I walk out then get dressed in a floral white top and a black skirt. I stroll out of my room then downstairs to the living room.

"Ah there you are Irene." My father greets. "Hey father-" I get interrupted in thought when I see my brother. "I-..Alexander?" My eyes widen. "What's up little sis?" Alexander puts his arms out. I go inside his arms and we hug, "I thought you were still in Germany with mom." I pull away, raising an eyebrow.

"I was..but she's crazy. I heard she fired you and she fired me as well..not to mention she tried to sleep with our uncle." Alexander revealed. Um. What the fuck..? That's weird.

"What?" My father says surprisingly. "That stupid bitch." My father mutters. "Sorry you had to hear that Alexander." Father runs his fingers through his hair. "Speaking of mom..I think I know where she is." I look away. "Where?" Both of them ask. "Father..remember during the mission to get a file? I saw mom there. And she shot me right in my thigh." I enlighten.

"Oh. She moved to Italy?" Alexander asks confusingly. "Yeah, I guess." I shrug. "Well enough about your crazy mom, I have something planned for you two." My father smirks. Me and Alexander stare puzzled at him, "We are having a reunion with my side of the family today." My father unveils.

"You have a side of the family?" I ask. I never knew he had a family that I never knew about, welp this is going to be interesting. "Of course. How do you think I was born?" My father chuckles. "Now let's go meet them, they are waiting for us at my house." My father suggests before we follow him out the door but I stop for a moment. "I'll catch up with you guys, I have to do something." I turn around and quickly go upstairs to Elliott's office.

I knock on the door, "Come in." Elliott says from the other side of the door. I open the door and walk inside. "I'll be back in a few hours. I'm going to spend time with my family for a bit." I look at him, he seems slightly upset by what I said.

"Ok. Have fun." Elliott starts to type. I head towards his deck then around to hug him. "Why are you doing this randomly?" Elliott hugs back hesitantly. "Because you look like you need it." I squeeze him tightly, he reciprocated the same force back. I pull away and look at him for a moment.

This is what exactly happened yesterday. He's still debating whether or not he should kiss me.

I slowly put my face closer to his but then we get interrupted by a voice. "Irene are you coming!?" Called my father from downstairs. "See you later." I nod and walk out. I rush downstairs and out the door to the car then I join them inside the car. "Ready?" My father asks. "Ready." We both nod.

We arrive at a beautiful street of Italy. It almost seems like we are in a completely different town. We all get out of the car and we go near the entrance to enter inside. As we walk in I hear an unfamiliar voice, "Oh Phoenix is that Irene??" A middle-aged woman squeals.
