Nick's POV

Olivia: *enters the house* Nick, I got what you wanted!

Nick: *finds her* Hey, I got some great news. We're both going to take a little trip.

Olivia: *confused* Really? Why?

Nick: Well, it could give us some time alone and away from all this annoying crap here in LA. And I got a call from someone who lives in Italy.

Olivia: Italy? Wow, I've always wanted to go. But why are we going?

Nick: Would you stop with the freaking questions?

Olivia: Sorry.

Nick: Look, I got a call from Selena.

Olivia: She called?

Nick: Yea, she asked if we would go to Florence to visit her and my daughter that I'm now finding about.

Olivia: Well, I can't go, Nick. I have a lot of responsibilities to finish here in LA.

Nick: *irritated* Does it look like I gave you a choice? You're going with me even if it makes you unhappy! *walks away*

Olivia: *sighs* *walks to the kitchen* *calls Selena*

Selena: Hello?

Olivia: Hey Selena, it's Olivia.

Selena: Hi, Olivia. It's great to hear from you. How's everything going?

Olivia: I've had better days.

Selena: What do you mean? Aren't you happy with your marriage?

Olivia: No. I'm very miserable with Nick. He's become abusive and controls everything that I do.

Selena: *worried* What? I feared this would happen. I'm so sorry, Olivia.

Olivia: It's ok, Selena. But it's not me you should be concerned for. It's your daughter. If she sees what her father has become, she might lose faith with him.

Selena: I didn't want to believe that. I didn't even want her to talk about Nick.

Olivia: It was bound to happen anyway. Now I'm being to forced to cancel all my projects and come to Italy with Nick.

Selena: Why did you stay with him?

Olivia: The first few years with him was perfect, but it didn't last until he started drinking more and ended up depressed.

Selena: I'm sorry to hear that.

Olivia: Don't worry. So how is life in Florence?

Selena: Everything is great. I haven't dated anyone the entire time I was here. Only raising Nicole.

Olivia: Such a beautiful name.

Selena: Thank you, I named her after Nick so that she could be reminded of him one day. Just not now.

Olivia: That's understandable. I would like to meet her.

Selena: That would be great, and I think she might like you. And if you like, you can always take her to this park close by, it keeps her calm when she's worried.

Olivia: I would like that very much, Selena. I'll see you in a few days.

Selena: Alright then. Bye, Olivia.

Olivia: Bye. *hangs up*

Nick: Who were you talking to?

Olivia: *looks up* I was talking with Selena.
