"ARMANI!" 5 year old Xavier screams chasing her around the house.
"DADDY HELP!" 2 year old Armani screams, running behind Salvatore's chair hiding.
Salvatore laughs as he closes his laptop and picks up both of the kids. He runs out, into the living room and finds all his children laughing at them. He drops Armani into Xander's lap before putting Xavier down on the couch gently. Armani's laughs fills the air as all 7 of her brothers drop onto her trying to tickle her. Xander's yelling at the boys as the rest of them laugh with their little sister. Salvatore looks at his daughter with pure pride and happiness.
Karen, who's standing in the door way, stares at the scene with a scowl on her face. Ever since Armani was born, the attention of the boys turned from their mother and onto their baby sister. Karen was jealous of the 2 year old. She went back upstairs and continued packing their clothes. She writes her husband a letter and hides everything in the closet. She comes back down and finishes off dinner, by then an hour has passed.
"DINNER'S READY!" She calls out. The maids bring out the food as the kids and Salvatore rush into the room.
Salvatore gives his wife a quick kiss before taking his place at the head of the table. Karen sits down at the opposite side of the table with an emotionless face.
"Mani, you know we love you right? And that you can always come talk to us about anything." Xander says looking at his little sister.
"I know, you're my favourite brother Xan" Armani responds with a smile.
Karen monitors the scene with a scowl on her face before returning to eating. The table fills with chatter and laughter as Karen stays quiet. Salvatore looks at all his kids with happiness in his eyes. Everyone finishes off dinner and runs to get ready for bed. However, Karen prepares to run away with her daughter.
At 3 AM, Karen gets up from the bed and goes to get their bags. She puts the letter on her dresser as she quietly makes her way to her daughter's room. She carries her daughter down the stairs and out the back door knowing the guards are stationed at the end of the driveway. She runs out into the street and puts a sleeping Armani in her car seat at the back of the car before getting into the car.
"Is that her?" John asks.
"She's such a whiny bitch. I can't believe those boys even like her" Karen states.
"Well let's see how they'll survive without your or their "precious baby" now" John, sarcastically, replies.
"Mummy? What's going on?" a sleepy Armani says, rubbing her eyes.
"Shut up bitch. You're not special to anyone anymore. You're just a spoiled brat and my new boyfriend here is gonna show you what spoiled brats get." Karen says, giving John an evil smirk.
"W-what do you mean? Mummy, why are you being so mean?" Armani says as tears fill up in her eyes and her lips start quavering. No one responds as John starts driving. Armani starts screaming and crying for her brothers. Karen turns back and injects something into Armani's neck.
Meanwhile, at the De Luca's residents:
"MANI!! MANI WHERE ARE YOU?!" Xander's cries can be heard from miles away.
Suddenly all the De Luca children burst into Armani's room. Every De Luca sibling is there but one. Salvatore rushes into the room.
"Xander, what happened?" he asks his child, eyes filled with concern.
"I ca-came into mani's room t-to ask if sh-she wanted to g-get some hot ch-chocolate with me and sh-she's not he-here dad" Xander cries.
The rest of the boys all start looking, frantically, for their little sister. Salvatore hands Xander to Lorenzo and rushes back to his room wondering where his wife and daughter are.
Lorenzo tries his hardest to calm his little brother down as the rest of the boys spread out in the house, yelling for their little sister and mother. Salvatore quickly finds the letter his wife left him and opens it.
Salvatore.
Ever since this little bitch, Armani, was born, you and the boys' attention have been fully on her. I'm sick of it. I used to be everything to you boys and now it's like I'm nothing. I'm absolutely sick of this bullshit Salvatore. I deserve to be treated like the Queen I am. I've now found another lover who sees that Armani's nothing but a waste of space, so I've taken your "precious and innocent" daughter. You'll never reach us. You'll never find us. We'll see how you and the boys survive without me now. Armani will get what she gets for being the little spoiled brat she is. No one will ever disrespect me again. Have fun living your life without us you cunt.
- Karen
As Salvatore reads the letter, his eyes fill up with tears. How could someone be so jealous .. of a 2 year old? His mind was running at a thousand thoughts per minute before he saw 13 year old Lorenzo standing in his doorway.
"They're not coming back are they?" the 12 year old questions, Salvatore looks at him with pain in his eyes. Lorenzo sighs and gathers his siblings in Armani's room. Salvatore sends all his men out to find his daughter. He resents his wife for taking her and is scared of what she might do.
"Armani will get what she gets for being the little spoiled brat she is. No one will ever disrespect me again." The words run through his mind again and again. The boys end up sleeping in Armani's room the whole week. After a month, they slowly realised that their little sister was taken from them. They'd each made a promise to themselves, and each other, that they'll never give up hope and continue to look for their precious sorellina.
