Massimo: What ! You were behind me the whole time?! Amore, what did you hear from the discussion I had with those bastards?

Laura: Enough to make me want to kill someone in the true sense of the word for the first time in my life!

Massimo: They made you want what?

No, don't talk like that, please! You are not like that!

You are my baby girl! Do you know why I chose to call you baby girl?

Laura: No! You never told me the reason.

Massimo: Because on the outside you seem like a fragile woman who needs to be protected, but on the inside hides the strongest woman I've ever known!

Ready to overcome any obstacle, a person who does not know the definition of the word impossible.

You are a strong woman who can dominate any man, but at the same time you have the fragility and pure and innocent soul of a child.

Laura remained speechless upon hearing Massimo's words.

Her eyes filled with tears.

Massimo: (wiping the tears that flowed down her cheeks) Hey Amore mio! Please don't cry!

Laura: No, it's not true! I'm not strong, I'm just a coward!

I couldn't protect you and Lucca!

I didn't have the courage to shoot when I had the chance, I couldn't do it, I couldn't!

They were all right, you need to have a strong woman by your side, not someone for whom you have to humiliate yourself, to risk your life to save her because she is not able to take care of herself.

Massimo: (hugging Laura) Hey, don't ever say that again, never hear me! Having the courage to pull the trigger, to wield a gun, to eliminate your opponents does not make you strong.

A truly strong person is the one who never gives up, the one who, even though he is afraid, chooses to face his fears, the one who is always there for those he loves to encourage them permanently.

And you did all this and much more with me!

You taught me to love, to smile, to enjoy life!

Do you know why I finally gave in to your pleas and put on my bulletproof vest?

Laura: ( sobbing) Why?

Massimo: Because since you appeared in my life, I started to care, I started to fear death, but not because I was in any way afraid of death itself, but because I couldn't bear the thought of you crying.

I know if something happened to me will make you suffer!

Since you appeared in my life, I had a reason to return, unharmed, you transformed this house into a Home.

Laura: You say this just to make me feel better but I'm a weak person, if I was strong, if I had the courage to shoot when I had the opportunity to do it, Lucca would have been with us today!

I miss him so much! This longing hurts! It's hurt so much!

Massimo: I can't, I don't know how to express in words what I feel!

I know that if I had been with you more after we lost Lucca, none of this would have happened!

The day you agreed to be with me willingly, I swore that I would protect you, that no one and nothing would make you suffer!

But I failed! I couldn't protect you or our miracle, and I will never forgive myself for that!
