Chapter 158
Massimo
I had no clue what went wrong, after an hour I went looking for Bella I found her asleep in our bed, it wasn’t even 7 pm yet. She must be very angry at me. This is becoming a re-occurrence lately. I went down to my study poured myself a scotch and sit back and thought about where I went wrong with Bella today. When I told her about the car that was following her, she said she didn’t want to hear about it, when I told her about Damon and Dani coming earlier, she had an attitude, which I don’t understand it’s only 2 days earlier. At least Damon phoned and said they’d only driving through the next day. I didn’t know how I’ll explain Rachel’s absents tonight so I was very happy about that. I finish my one glass then poured me another. I started to think about the wedding, could it be that it’s not a surprise for Damon and Dani anymore is that why she got so angry or was it just pregnancy hormones? If it was how on earth am I going to survive the next 8 months? I’m Italian and we are used to load women, but angry not so much. Francesca popped her head into my office “Dinner is ready sir.” “Just put it in the oven thank you Francesca.” “Okay sir, see you tomorrow.” “See you tomorrow, Francesca. Oh, Francesca before I forget, we getting visitors tomorrow we all leaving together in the New Year.” “I’ll get the rooms ready tomorrow morning Sir, any men?” “Yes, but I’m sure the house outside is ready for them?” “It is sir, good night” “Good night, Francesca.” After my third class I decided to get something to eat, I didn’t want a hangover tomorrow, that might give Bella another reason to be angry with me. I went to the kitchen dished myself some food and sat in the lounge and ate I started channel hopping, something I’ve never done. I stopped on the news channel and surprise surprise our story was still headlines, why didn’t Frank got that removed. I skip the channel again and came across a story about pregnancy and the birth. I watch about a half an hour before I switch the TV off, I’m certain now I needed to get some books to read, it’s clear I had no idea what was waiting for me. At about 10 pm I decided to get into bed, Bella was sleeping at the far side of the bed, probable scared she’ll touch me or I’ll touch her, I left her and hope for the best for the next day.
Rachel
I woke up at about 2 am from my belly screaming for food. I look to Massimo’s side of the bed and saw him in a deep sleep. I quietly got up and went to the kitchen, I wondered what Francesca made for dinner, probable something with pasta. When I open the oven, I was correct, it smelled delicious not sure what it was but my tummy didn’t mind. I dished myself some and went to the kitchen table to eat. I sat back and thought about the day, I was probable too hard on Massimo about Damon and Dani, but why didn’t he ask me first where their lives in so much danger? I probably should have asked that before I threw the tantrum. But I didn’t want to except the fact that I might have been wrong. Who could blame me for acting the way I did, after everything that happened. I need to sleep on it and apologize to Massimo but explain to him why I felt that way. I finish my dinner and put my plate in the dishwasher then I got some Ben & Jerry ice cream out of the fridge. My first bite I sighed and said “Oh my God it’s good.” Massimo knock on the counter to get my attention, “Is it safe to come in?” “Why you awake Massimo?” “I felt you leave the bed and I thought I’ll give you some alone time, but then you took too long to come back, so here I am just making sure you okay. I’ll go back to bed if you need more time.” “No Massimo get a spoon.” He went to the draw got a spoon and walked over to me, “You going to share the ice cream with me?” “You know I will.” “You were very angry at me Bella not sure you wanted to share.” “Yes, Massimo I was very angry and perhaps a bit too angry without knowing the facts. Is Dani in danger?” “Yes, Bella I’m not going to lie to you we all are, the guy that was following you, the guys pushed him off the street and he was in an accident he died, but Davide got his phone. He was working for the Ricci’s and had photos of you, me and the men on his phone with a shoot to kill order.” “Oh my God Massimo, then why didn’t he take the shot?” “Davide and Aldo were too fast for him. But he also had photos of Damon and his men also shoot to kill, but Dani’s photo said capture with her real name, that is why I said they should come earlier, they were also followed a night ago from a restaurant. I know we said the wedding would be a surprise but unfortunately circumstances had changed.” “I should have asked you before I got upset, but with the shooting the previous day, the following earlier yesterday and then you changing our wedding plans per se, that was just a bit too much for me.” “I’m sorry Bella, I didn’t take you in consideration when I invited them to come earlier, I should have asked you first.” “That would have been preferable, but I’m trying to understand.” “Why didn’t you want to hear about the guy that followed you, you always tell me to tell you everything?” “I just wanted one day to concentrate on the wedding and not who’s getting shot next Massimo, just one day.” “I get it now Bella, I’m sorry.” “I’m sorry too Massimo, I don’t like going to bed angry with you.” “I hate it to Bella, especially when you lie so far away from me. Let’s go back to bed.” He took my hand and we walked up the stairs, “Maybe it would be nice to have someone to get ready with Massimo.” Massimo didn’t say anything. We got into bed and he pulled me to him holding me. “Massimo, can I ask one last question for tonight?” “Off course Bella” “When is all this going to stop?”
“Soon Bella soon.”
