Lissy Romano
I was sitting next to the pool. I sunbathed. I was writing my thoughts into my notebook and I enjoyed that feeling.
I don't have to be scared...I don't have to be worried about Miguel or anyone else. My brothers...they love me. That was everything I asked for. Someone who would love me unconditionally.
"Lissy." a deep voice sent shivers through my spine
I turned around...it was just Matteo.
"Matteo, what are you doing here?" I asked as I didn't feel comfortable sitting just in my swimsuit next to him
I know he wouldn't hurt me, but I still felt embarrassed about my bruises.
"I wanted to talk with you." Matteo said as he sat next to me
"About what?" I asked
"Giovanni said that we need to give you this pill, for your heart. You should take it." Matteo said
I took the pill, I grabbed water bottle which was next to me and I swallowed the pill. I looked back at Matteo and nodded my head as saying 'thanks'.
"About school tomorrow. Enzo and I will be there. Giovanni said that I need to give you this phone, it's yours now." Matteo said as he handed me a phone
"Thanks." I said in excitement
"He said that I need to remind you that can't contact with Jose. Whatever that fucker is..." Matteo said...well real Matteo is back
"I won't. I wouldn't have considered him my friend if I would known that he is in Mexico's drug cartel." I said as I placed the phone next to me
"Well. You know that we all make mistakes, right?" Matteo asked
"Yes. I know." I said as I looked at him
"Lissy, I didn't want to scare you. I would never hurt you. Drunk or sober...I care about you." Matteo said
I care about you=I love you
I didn't understand...If this boy next to me is really Matteo or maybe this is just a dream...I will wake up and he will pour cold water on me...that would be more like Matteo.
"You know...I care about you too." I said as I looked at the pool, the water so light and clear
"Thank you." Matteo said as he placed his hand on my shoulder gently, as if I would break if he didn't do it that gente
Thank you? He is just like Dante...antisocial...but I will help him with socializing. That's what little sisters are for.
"I wanted to ask..." I started and his eyes snapped at me
"What is it?" he asked, afraid of my question
"What happened to your face?" I asked quietly
"Oh...Lissy...It was just a fight." Matteo said as he petted my head in relief
"Did you won?" I asked as I blinked
