It's been a whole year since Ronny engaged to Loretta, Thanks to their fight during their Prenuptial Agreement, they canceled their ceremony.
| Loretta's POV |
It was a lovely sunny morning. I played with Grandpa's pups while sipping my coffee in the living room. At peaceful moments like this I usually think deep thoughts and recall some good memories, like when pops took the dogs out for a walk in the middle of the night and hear them howl at the moon, and that one time when I.........accepted Johnny's ring and he carelessly allowed his brother (Ronny) to marry me instead believing that if he marries me it would bring death to his mother. I Loved Ronny More. He Was My Everything. So of course, I agreed to marry Ronny instead.
But the agreement,
Our argument,
What was he thinking?
*flashback, 10/07/87*
"is this what you mean? you want us to....be in our own paths?" "listen, Loretta, I love you, but its just not gonna work the way I want it to be" "Yeah yeah I get it......thanks for sharing reasons why we shouldn't get married anymore" "I don't mean it that way, LISTEN. TO. ME. Even if we don't get married we still have each other." "Oh yeah sure i'll listen to ya! And by the way, take your ring back. I don't want it and by 'each other', you mean yourself because I can't take this anymore!"

| Author's POV |
Meanwhile, Ronny was busily working at his bakery, the Cammareri Bakery. One of his workers insisted him to take a break from all his work because of his amputated hand.
| Ronny's POV|
"Fine! I'll take a break but if I see any of you not doing your job, its over." I went down the stairs to the basement which was the place i used to work and slammed the door behind me. I groaned in annoyance as I sat down in my wooden, uncomfortable, chair trying to calm down, as usual I liked to go through some pictures and get my mind off of work, sigh, all I ever do is work, work was the reason my hand was amputated in the first place! Thanks to Johnny... Those bastards come here looking for me like I'm some sort of a freak show! I can't even remember the last time i had a break.......or do I?
Then i suddenly felt something peculiar, like, something i haven't felt in a while... I got weirded out by this feeling I had... So I went through my photos to see if it would have the reason why I felt that way....
And there it is.

Me and Loretta Castorini.
But its been a while now. She probably has a grudge against me thanks to the "agreement", Things weren't going my way, so I just had to end it. But why do I still feel like this?
is it......because of her? or is it......because...I miss her?
I should probably speak to her. you'll never know what'll happen.
