I remember him that night when he told me that we would meet again and I was so certain that I was not ever going to meet him again but guess life has a weird way of showing things.
"Um yes you did but I mean you can't blame me if a total stranger says that you guys will meet again it's a bit creepy it sounded like a Joe Goldberg comment," I say looking at him just to see his mouth twitch.
"Joe Goldberg you say?" he asks finding this amusing.
"Yep, you know that weird stalker dude that stalks every girl he finds interesting," I say thinking about that one episode I watched of him in Beck's apartment.
"So I'm a stalker now?" he asks with a curious look on his face
Okay shit, that is not how I wanted it to sound.
"Um no you're too hot to be a stalker but again you do get hot stalkers like Zade Meadows," I say, now I'm just rambling bullshit but this guy has a weird effect on me where say things I don't think thru.
"So you think I'm hot?" he asks in his Italian voice smirking
"Yes," I say. "Wait um you're just good to stare at, okay now I need to shut up," I say feeling a bit embarrassed.
I then hear him chuckle, "interessante" he mumbles.
"I guess you said interesting?" I ask loving his amazing accent.
"Mhm," he hums and looks at me.
"You not much of a talker are you?" I ask wondering if all this guy ever does is hum or give one-word answers maybe the man is just shy.
"Sometimes silence is just better, silence speaks more volumes than any noise in the world," he says in his deep voice
I then hear someone call my name inside which voice belongs to Erica.
"Rhea where are you i got to show you something!"I hear Erica shout
"My sister seems to like you," he says to me
"I guess," I say not knowing what to say to this man who can make anyone nervous
"Just a warning once my sister likes someone she wants to become best friends with that person," he says which makes me smile as I can use a new friend.
"Ancora bello come to la prima volta che ti ho vista" he mutters looking at me
( Translation:Still beautiful as the first time I saw you)
I was about to ask him what did he say but Erica shouted again, "Rhea!"
I then look at Antonio, "It was nice seeing you um again..." I say not sure to say his name
"Antonio," he says in his, deep voice staring at me.
"Antonio," I say finishing my sentence and I see him clenching his jaw when I mention his name
"Always a pleasure," he says looking at me with a serious expression but he has a slight smile on that grumpy handsome face of his.
"Later stalker," I say and he narrows his eyes and then chuckles making me laugh too.
"Later Colomba," he says and I look at him one last time and give him a wave.
(Translation: Dove)
I then go inside wondering what he just said, this man is so confusing for some reason why doesn't he just say it in English so that I can understand it?
"Oh, there you are," Erica says coming out of nowhere and I smile.

I arrived home tired as Erica and I had a few drinks and I must say I enjoyed my evening for some unknown reason tonight I felt alive all over again and I love that feeling it's the feeling I have been craving for in a very long time.
