Chapter 2: Meetings

Clariss

I felt so bad for leaving him there. But this was important, it was my only chance to prove my parents, including myself how responsible I was. I am in medical school making my way to be a nurse. I had a part time job as a medical assistant; kind of the basics of a nurse. I was now 20 years old, and everything was great. The people i loved were growing. My parents; my mom was still the same woman. Same face, same soul. Old didn't seem to get her she still looked young. I was amazed. My father had decided to stay in Italy for the best. He was afraid of moving back to New York and its lifestyle. We still visited him every now and then.

My sibblings Francesco already had a job and was married to my beautful sister in law Lily. She was tall, with light brown hair and big brown eyes. She had a pretty smile and a great personality. They were so close to having a 4 year anniversary marriage. I was happy for them two, they made such a great couple and most importantly they were happy. They had two kids. A boy named Ralph with 4 years of age, and a girl named Sophia who was 3. We barely saw them since they lived in California. Valentina was already 11 years old. She was small and had an average height (not too tall not too short), and she still had a babyface. Last but not least, Isabella. She was 4 years old soon turning 5. She hadn't started school but was anxious to. She was a very small, petite girl. Her face had grown, making her big blue eyes bug out and her little smile too. Her hair was red brown, her curls all the way to her shoulders. She talked English and Italian fluently. She actually talked too much.

And last The love of my life had gone through many ups and downs with me. I was really happy, we were going to turn 5 years together! time passed, we graduated high school together, I made it with honors and he made it with a high point gpa. Now we were both on our paths to great opportunities in life. No matter how hard I was willing to make this life the best it could be. I didn't want to grow old one day and be the typical old lady who never made it further than NY, or Italy. There was so much more out there and I wanted to explore it.

I got a call from Sal. My boss.

"Hello?" I asked

"Clariss dear?"

"Oh Sal! Hi!"

"Hello Clariss, I want you to come to my office as soon as you get here." he said

"Yes Sir."

"Okay, Thank You." I said

"Uhu. Bye"

He quickly hanged up. How rude. Really rude. But oh well. Oh no! he wanted to talk to me... what if its bad? what if its good? Oh My...

I arrived at the hospital rushing through busy hallways and crowdy elevators. I finally arrived to his office.

*I knocked*

"Come in!" he shouted

"Yes, indeed. Sit down please." he spoke

*I sat down*

-His phone rang.-

Sal: "Are you serious?! No! it will have to wait!"

"Look, I thought I made it clear on Thursday."

person talking...

Sal: "Fine do whatever you want."

Sal: "I am busy!"

*he hanged up*

My hands started to get clammy and my heart was surely pumping hard.

"Where were we?" he asked nicely
