Three years had gone by after Jenni left her position as the Mob Princess and moved to Italy with her husband Omar Franco. They started a new life and left all the violence behind them.  Manuel was still the new Mob Boss back in the USA. He would get in touch with Jenni once a week,  however she kept that as a secret.  She didn't want Omar to know about it.

It was a sunny morning, clear blue sky, birds singing, the grass was still moist from the early raising, fresh scent of wild flowers, beautiful 100 acres scenery of a growing and beautiful vineyard. That is was Jennifer Acerbi-Gonzalez and Omar Franco woke up to every morning in their new home in Italy. Their new lifestyle has finally grown on them after a couple of years of learning how to work on the land, learning how to grow the best grapes in their geographic area. They were finally getting the respect for being the best Vineyard. They worked hard and earned their place. A peaceful lifestyle was all they wanted.

Their fairly new lives was just what each had dreamed of and finally they were living the dream.

5:00 a.m. the rooster alarm will go off every morning. Jenni will get up and prepare breakfast for her and Omar (she finally learned to cook). Her specialty is, over easy egg's, bacon, chocolate fluffy pancakes and coffee. The aroma of the food would travel their home making it a reminder that it was not a dream. They sat at the kitchen table and enjoy each other's company, nice conversation, read the local newspaper and on Sunday's Omar will read the USA newspapers just to feel connected to his past life.

Life just could not get any better. Everything was perfect....

After breakfast they go out on the field and with the help of their agriculture workers they start working on the Vineyard. Hard work and long hours under the Italian hot blue skies. But definitely all worth it.

Jenni will go attend to the farm animals. About 10 acres was for her animals the remaining 90 acres where dedicated to the Vineyard, their home and the quarters for the workers.

She really loved the all her Animals; chickens, turkeys, rabbits, goats, cows, dogs, and a few horses. It brought out her maternity side. She started to play with the idea of a the possibility of having a child but couldn't seem to bring up the subject to Omar. She was convince that her past life could put her child life's in danger so she never spoke about her desire of becoming a mother. It was a very painful secret she kept to herself.

The first day of fall was here, the cool breeze was refreshing after the very hot summer they experience this year. The next morning Jenni couldn't find the strength to get up her bed. She had a cough, fever, sore body pain, headache. Omar was concern about her.

-Baby, get ready I am taking you to the Dr office, I'm not leaving you here sick by yourself all day.-said Omar.

-No, I will be fine is just a cold, don't worry. I will ask Julia (her service help) to make me soup later on. Go to work, don't worry. -Jenni reply

So, Omar left to work. He checked with Julia and Jenni through the day to see if there was anything they might need.

A couple of weeks has passed but Jenni was still sick. Omar was getting worried but she refuse to go to the hospital. Finally fed up and worried Omar got a visiting Doctor to come to the Vineyard to see Jenni. After about one hour into the consultation the Dr finished the check up. He order some blood work for the following day.

The next morning Jenni and Omar went to the lab and she had her blood work done and went back home to their regular schedule. They needed to wait two days for the results to come back.

-Baby I'm going to go insane. We have to wait for whole two days for your results. What if there's something Wrong , two days could make things worst? Omar said while walking up and down the hallway. Heartbeat fast, deep breathing, pulse rising, thoughts were scrambling in his head. Making him worry sick.

-Love don't worry so much. Everything is going to be ok, the Dr knows what he's doing besides there's nothing wrong. I'm just down with a really bad flu symptoms, but I will be fine in a couple of days. She said with a soft smile on her lips. Omar always melt by her beautiful smile.

They went on with the daily routine, trying not to think about the wait. Before they knew it it was time for the lab results but they hadn't heard from the Dr yet. Omar was furious, cursing out loud every word he knew.
He called the clinic and ask for the Dr. but he wasn't in the office yet. He had a patient at the emergency room that needed his attention before coming into the office.

-What the fuck? The Dr is not in the office yet Jenni.

-It's fine sweetheart, did the secretary said when he will be in the office?

-No. She said he's at the emergency room with a patient.

-Do not stress sweetheart, the Dr will call US when he gets into the office. Everything is going to be fine. You are going to feel silly when he calls and say "Jenni , you just had a very strong type of flu. You will be ok". I probably just need some antibiotics for a few days. Don't worry so much.

- How can you be so fucking calm Jenni? Something could be wrong with you. I don't know what would I do if I ever loose you. Don't you realized that You are my life? I will loose it if I lost you. I will kill that fucking Dr if something happens to You. Did you hear me, I will kill him? Omar shouted out of fear.

Jenni needed to calm Omar, so she decided to take him for a walk at the beautiful vineyard, they held hands and walk together for about an hour or so. They went to her side, were her animals are. They feed them, they play for a little while. Omar noticed how much Jenni really loved her animals. He sat down while she run around with the dogs and then her horses. She was a natural animal lover even though growing up she wasn't allow to have any. Her Dad thought pets were a distraction they couldn't afford.
He saw a new side to her, a maternal side. That was something they had never talked about before, having a family. And he started to wonder if that would be a possibility for them and if it was; how was he going to bring up the subject to Jenni?
