Damién POV
"Father-daughter swim day? This is what you do in your spare time brother?" I asked as he swam towards me.
"Sure why not. Her coach isn't the only one she can learn from after all."
"I have a contract that needs your signature aquaman."
"Hold on, I'll meet you in my office let me get dried up." Massimo said walking into the house.
"Hi Uncle Damién...and friend."
Trust Rita to remind me that Hardin was here. I completely forgot I brought the kid with me. She is one hell of a handful that girl. I don't know how Matteo and Massimo deal with having teenage daughters especially with how problematic these two in particular have proven to be. Massimo was too focused on following Matteo when we were younger than he was growing up faster than he should've. That's exactly how he ended up getting a girl pregnant the very same time that Matteo got Alexa pregnant. Matteo was twenty but Massimo was only sixteen. Our father wasn't about to risk Massimo making the same foolish decision as his brother by marrying a girl because she is pregnant so as soon as Rita's mother gave birth, she was taken care of. In other words, he had to raise that girl without her mother. Tough luck, but he did a decent job enough.
"Stay out of trouble Rita." I said warningly because of the way she was looking at Hardin. Massimo may put on a calm facade but he'll have the poor kid's head if she tries anything with him. She caught on and laughed before swimming away.
"The girls in this family are beautiful, sí?" I asked him.
"Uh y-yes sir." He agreed.
"Without a doubt but they are equally dangerous as they are gorgeous. They hold all the real power in the family because they have the Romano men wrapped around the pinky. I would tread carefully if I were you, understand boy?"
"Yes sir, of course."
After getting that done, we drove to one of the warehouses in Milan. I showed Hardin around just to satisfy his curiosity then we ran a few errands before I dropped him off in the city. Matteo wanted him to do something on his own so I left him and headed home.
