Bittersweet Amore

S E T T E

The weekend came quickly. It's currently 10 am and Xavier went to the airport to pick up his parents and younger sister.

During the past three days, he told me a couple of things about his family like he told me that he has a younger sister and brother.

He also remarked that they usually live in Italy but that they know to come sometimes here to spend time with each other and stuff like ages, names.

I was in Emiliano's bathroom bathing him when I heard loud voices coming from downstairs. My nerves started to work faster than before, just like my overthinking.

'What if they don't like me? Ugh.. why do I care I'm just a nanny here. I shouldn't think about that. It's gonna just make myself more nervous than I already am. What if I embarrass myself in front of them? Would they laugh at me if I accidentally fall?"

Picking Emiliano up and wrapping him into a towel I walked into the room and put him on the changing table so I could dry him. After that, I took the clothes and diaper which I prepared earlier for him and began to dress him.

I was halfway done when a door opened and Xavier walked in along with a man and woman. I looked at them awkwardly giving them small smile. Both man and woman looked intimidating and radiated with power.

The woman didn't waste time and secured her way toward me. She's really beautiful with long brown hair and light blue eyes. She has a slender frame and is a little higher than me. Man is around the same height as Xavier with the same dark hair.

"Hello dear. I'm Isabella." She said smiling warmly while extending her hand toward me for a handshake.
"Antea. It's nice to meet you, ma'am." I said as I take her hand into a handshake however she took me by surprise when she pulled me into a hug. After snapping out a shock I lightly wrapped my hands around her too.

"Likewise." She said. "And please call me Isabella I'm not that old." She added laughing slightly.
I nodded my head "Will do ma... I mean Isabella." I said with a small smile.

I didn't even realize that Xavier and his father came to stand next to us until someone cleared his throat. Turning to the side I saw that it's Xavier's father.

He extended his hand "Giovanni, it's nice to meet you." He said with a smile I shook his hand politely giving him a smile of my own.
"Likewise," I told him still smiling.

After the handshake, they keep looking at me with curiosity in their eyes so I awkwardly cleared my throat and gestured towards Emiliano "Umm...I'm going to finish dressing Emiliano..." I told them with a small smile.

I turned around and continue to dress Emiliano while Xavier's parents stood right next to me looking at my every movement. After I finished dressing him I took him in my arms and turned towards the rest of them.
