Chapter 5 (Picture Of Luca)

Illiana's P.O.V

My dad decided to have a special barbecue for me winning he invited the Stone family, Luca and his father, Shay and her fathers.

I woke up in a very somber mood, I wasn't planning on taking it out on any one. Last night a bit dramatic cause when we got home I spent time with my bro and didn't really speak to my mom or dad, that upset them.

"Good morning mia familia." I said.

"Good Morning" they greeted in sink.

I then ate breakfast and took a shower. I checked the time it was 10:00 a.m guest would be arriving in two hours.

I quickly got dressed and ran down stairs to see if anyone needed help with preparation. When I got downstairs my mom and dad were sitting on the table my mom seemed really sad.

"Hey. . .what's going on" I asked.

"You upset your mom yesterday cause you refused to spend time with her" my father said.

"Really?" I scoffed.

"Illiana!" Illan gasped.

"What?" I shrugged.

"Respect you're mother" my father said.

"Oh wow, I was tired and if she felt like I neglected her or didn't want her she gets to feel how I felt a couple years ago" I said.

"We're working so you don't starve." My dad scolded.

"Okay papa" I said raising my hand.

"No it's not okay, your mom feels horrible" my dad yelled.

"Well then. . . Fine it's not okay, I'm not okay either. I haven't been in a very long time, but that doesn't matter right. I'm an outcast in you're happy family, the one that's neglected but hey what does that matter. I'm so sorry I'm not the perfect little angel you envisioned , I'm so sorry I happen to have my fuck ups. . . I'm bitter, you made me bitter, I created a life without you and I got comfortable now that your back I guess you want to play happy family, right. I'm not part of you're family so go back to Venice and act like I don't exist like you've been these TWO years " I scream

"Illiana. . ." My bro said coming towards me to comfort me

"NO! I GET I DONT FIT. . .I GET IT, SO DON'T COME HERE AND ACT LIKE YOU'LL BE AROUND. . .cause I'll get use to having my family just so you can go back and leave me all alone. . . I can't deal with that pain again. So book your flight and leave " I said.

Then we heard someone clear their throat. It grabbed my attention, when I looked over the Stones were there and so was Shay and her fathers.

I felt embarrassed so I ran up stairs tears rushing down my face. A few minutes later I heard a knock.

I got off of my bed and went to the bathroom and washed my face then I place the perfect fake smile on.

"Hi." I said Shay's concerned face stared at me as if I were a painting in an art gallery.

She hugged me. The warmth of my friends hug made me melt. I started to break, this was something I never did before at least not in front of anyone. Shay has always tried to be my support for a very long time I didn't want that. This was the first time my friend saw past my mask and what she saw broke her too, she also started crying.

A few seconds later we stopped I think we were both warn out. My beautiful friends face was puffy and slightly pink.

"Oh my lord, you look a mess" I managed to joke with my voice still cracking.
