Characters:
Elena Martinez - A 26-year-old determined and skilled personal assistant. She has been working for a prestigious fashion company for the last three years, assisting the CEO, Victor Rossi.
Luca Rossi - Victor's 28-year-old son. He is charismatic, ambitious, and has recently returned from studying abroad to take over the family business as his father plans to retire.
Diego Martinez - Elena's father, a close childhood friend of Victor. Both families have known each other for decades.
Elena Martinez had always been known for her professionalism, diligence, and quiet determination. For the last three years, she had worked as Victor Rossi's trusted personal assistant. They had developed a strong working relationship, one built on respect and mutual understanding. Victor, now in his late 50s, had made the unexpected announcement that he would be stepping down as CEO to enjoy his well-earned retirement and spend more time with his wife and grandchildren.
What Victor hadn't told Elena yet was that his son, Luca, would be returning from his studies abroad to take over the reins of the company. It wasn't just a professional challenge that awaited Elena-it was a deeply personal one.
Years ago, Elena and Luca had been more than just childhood friends. They had been inseparable during their teenage years, eventually falling into the whirlwind of first love at 17. Their relationship had been full of passion, dreams, and an unspoken promise of forever. But things changed abruptly when one fateful night, a misunderstanding tore them apart. Neither of them had spoken to the other since, their paths diverging with Luca moving away for his studies and Elena focusing on her career.
Now, Luca was coming back-and Elena was unprepared.

God Only Knows
So. Here are the facts as you see them. Fact number one: Giulia is going to be on the train for Genova in two days. She's going back home--because Genova is her home, apparently, and you're still grappling with the idea that there are places outside your island and Portorosso, BIG ones, they keep telling you, all over the globe--where she'll spend the next nine or so months going to school. Fact number two: You and Luca now own your very own Vespa. It's not road-ready yet, and it might not be for a while, which is fine actually because it turns out now that the Paguros aren't going to send Luca away to the bottom of the ocean, you're going to have to whittle them down into giving him permission to run away with you. Fact number three: That's not even really a plan that makes sense, if you think about it for more than a few minutes at a time. Fact number four: You haven't forgotten that Luca doesn't actually want to run away with you anymore. He's just pretending he never said it.Concluida
