New life.
This is all I wanted, just me and her, in our own place.
But not this way....
It's been two weeks since we came here, two weeks of her trying to settle down, rearranging everything that crossed her path. Lost in her own mind, I know she's hurting. Sometimes I hear her cry in the shower, while cleaning, at night, or when baking. Cazzo, she only tried to bake once, she only stared at the mixer and then walked out the kitchen.
It tears me aparte knowing I could've done something. I should've paid more attention.
Loud bang ecos against the walls, my heart skip a beat. Running out of the bathroom " Tesoro!" I yelled. No answer. Merda.
I run down the stairs, looking around frantically I hear something smashed, sounded like crystals breaking. I quickly enter the kitchen.I pause.
I was greeted by mio tesoro crying, bracing herself as she stares at the floor. I look down and saw her mixer machine, a lot of glass and her favorite apron at her feet. She stood in the middle of all the shattered glass. Cazzo.
I made my way towards her, being careful not to startled her. Once close, I hold her by her waist and lift her up, setting her down on the island counter.
I hear her softly murmur something. " parole tesoro" I coo at her. Her eyes still set on the mess of the floor. " they gifted me those" she whisper. I look at the mess then back at her. She didn't want the things they gave her, a constant reminder of what had transpired.
She holds my face " I'm sorry" tears falling down her cheeks, her eyes red and puffy from all the crying.
I shouldn't have told Stefano to pack her baking stuff, to be honest I thought it would help her. I fucked up.
" don't be amore" I reassure her, wiping the tears of her pink tinted cheeks. I pick her up and carried her to our bedroom. Once I set her down on the bed she made herself comfortable under the blankets. I sight. I kiss her forehead " rest amore" With that I went back to the bathroom and resume my business.

After the shower I came out an saw her fast asleep. I didn't disturb her, she hasn't been getting much sleep.

For the past four hours I've been in my office tending to some business. I been neglecting my work and focusing on my girl so I take moments like this when she is sleeping to get done as much work as I can.
I finished signing some papers " è tutto qui?" (Is that all) I asked Mariano. Looking at him he wore a worried look. I raised a brow, he understood and clears his throat " I spoke to Stefano this morning" he starts fiddling with a ring on his finger, " he said Severino is angry you took the girl and Catalina wants to know if she's safe" now they care?
I lean back on my chair, there's a reason why she didn't say goodbye, they can go fuck themselves.
"Stefano only told them she was safe but wanted no contact for the time being" he continues but he seams nervous.
" say it already, thats not the reason Stefano called" I pressed, I definitely don't have the patience to talk about them.
Mariano just nods " Severino said there was a situation with some shipments that were to carry important product yet they never made it to the ports, said he thinks the Russian had something to do with it and wants you to check it out since... uh you're here." He finished.
Dio, not even a whole continent away can stop him for troubling me.
" I'll check on it" I stated. With that Mariano hands me another paperwork I need to look at....
~~~
After Mariano left I went to check on my girl, it's been a few hours I know, but she didn't had lunch so I have to get her to eat something.
As I enter the room I saw her sitting on the bed but looking out the window, "mio amore are you hungry?" I ask as I sit down next to her. She turns to face me and shakes her head gently. " can we go out?" The moment those words left her mouth a huge weigh lifted from my shoulders. Cazzo si.
I kissed her plump lips " si tesoro " a soft smile appeared, after a few weeks, fucking progress. " I'll get ready then " she says and goes to the bathroom.
I waited downstairs for her, I won't pressure her, I'll take her whenever she want to go.
A few minutes later I hear the clicking of her heals, " okay I'm ready " she look like she's been crying, fuck.
I take her hand and kissed her knuckles " we can stay if you don't want to go baby" I pushed a strand of hair behind her ear. She shakes her head " no, i want to" She takes my hand and makes her way to the elevator.
Once we were inside my car I turn and saw her struggling with the seat belt. I chuckle. I reach over and helped her, once it clipped she hold my hand " grazie my love" and pressed a soft kiss on my cheek.
I smile, leaning back and turning on the engine I asked her " dove vuoi andare?" (Where do you want to go) Making line to get out of the parking garage and out to the street I finally hear her soft voice.
" just drive maybe?" She sounded unsure but I didn't question her, so I did just that, drive.
