"Children do not care how much you know until they know how much you care"

Destiny's P.O.V

The bright sunlight awaken me from my deep slumber last night. Suddenly it all hits me in the head as the flashback memory from last night returns.

Man, i can't believe i just did that with someone i barely know.

But it was amazing nonetheless.

What time is it now ? I turn to grab a clock nearby. Half past seven a.m. I find myself to be alone in the bed.

The bathroom door opens and i see him with all his glory standing there while getting out of the shower with a wet hair.

"Morning, Darling" he says as he gives a smile to me. A decent smile to be exact.

"Yeah, morning" i reply, still feeling slightly embarassed.

"So, what time are we going to pick Alan up ?"

"In Three hours"

It means that i have to get ready as soon as possible, we haven't even eaten yet.

While i am still planning how i am going to plan for today, i hear him clearing his throat.

Then he approaches me. "But before that, i deserve a kiss, don't i" he presses his lips againts mine. I pull it away before we end up doing it again.

"Okay, i'll take a shower"

Right now we are on the way to Elena's house. The way is just filled with small talk and the songs played in Italian which i have no idea what they are about.

It feels unvelievable that we are currently in Italy. I mean, i was just in London a few days ago, and he just happened to be there while they were "collecting" me.

After around half an hour of ride, we arrive in front of a convenient two story house.
The front is painted in light blue and the roof is blue colored. The front yard is decorated with a lot of flowers, and there are some fruit trees seen. It seems like a warm and convenient place to live.

We both get out of the car and ring the front bell.

I am feeling a bit nervous since this is the first time I officially meet Alan as his step mother. He seems to be okay with me when we first met, but still, will he accepts me well ?

Before long, the door is opened by Elena. She is wearing a one piece old style casual dress in pale yellow.

"Oh, hello Stefano, and Destiny, please, come in"

We get into the house to find Alan with a little blonde girl, they are playing together while having small kids talk.

"Hey, Alan, ready to go home ?" He noticed Stefano voice and turn his head to see him.
"Papa !" He runs to approach Stefano and me. His tiny hands hug Stefano legs, and he wrap him tight.

"Do you want to give mama a hug ?" He points his finger to me.
Alan sneak a peek on me, and immediately move to hug my legs.

"Mama ! Welcome !"

I am not going to lie, i almost lose my breath at his attitude.

He is so adorable while doing it !

I am feeling warm sensation inside of me.
Hearing him calling me mama is a whole new experience and I think I'm liking it.

"Let's go home, say goodbye to Camellia" Stefano says as he pulls Alan gently from me.

So that little girl name is Camellia.

"Bye - Bye Lia" apparently, Alan already has a nickname for that little lady.

After that, all of us get in the car and we drive back to the Capello Mansion.

It is the second time I step in here, but I still can't get over how luxurious and amazing this place is.

Every single corner is painted in cream color with some brown accent to them. The floors are perfectly carpeted with some crimson brown color and there are many paintings and unique statue all around. It seems like this guy is an artistic type in a way.

There are a total of twenty six rooms in these house excluding the basement and garage.

4 rooms are used for maids, there are two guest rooms and two free rooms. There is a living room, a private dining room, a formal dining room, a hall room, and two separate kitchen.

There are some unique room like the library, the theatre room, a lounge, a bar, and his office. Every room has it's own bathroom, and they are not included in the twenty six rooms count.

I feel like I could get lost living in here.

"Do you want to have lunch here or out ?" He asks me. "I'll just have it at home, I'm too tired to go outside" Suddenly, Alan comes between us "Mama, I want to eat outside" he looks at me with those puppy eyes of his.

How can I resist those eyes of his ?

"Fine, we'll eat outside" I sigh. He cheers happily, and Stefano just grin in there.

It hasn't even been one hour since the I am here and we are already going outside again.

We arrive at a classic garden restaurant that has kids friendly option. We order a few things and after they arrive we enjoy our meal.

Actually this is the first time I ever have meals like these, and it's also the first time I have ever eat with someone as a family.

It feels nice to be honest, having someone to share your meal with.

I look at Alan, he is eating some fettuccine and gets sauce smeared on his mouth.

Initially, I take a napkin and wipe his mouth with it.

"Now, eat like a big boy will you" I say teasingly.

He gives me an adorable smile in return.

I think I will enjoy my life from now on.
