ADRIANO

THE PLANE TOUCHED down with a gentle bump, rousing Adriano from his slumber. He looked out the window, and it was dark and blank.

"We have arrived, sir," a beautiful air hostess said to him. Adriano nodded and got out of his reclining chair. He had fallen asleep mid-flight and slept for the rest of the journey. It was a restless sleep that left his mind troubled.

He and Fabio had caught up on most of the things they missed and enjoyed the beauty of Italy in the few hours Adriano had left. They visited their favorite childhood stores and bars, the places they frequented when they used to run operations for the mafia.

It was a nostalgic, bittersweet feeling.

"Welcome back home, sir," the airhostess at the door bowed.

If anything, Italy felt like home more than America ever did, Adriano snorted inwardly.

"Your car is waiting to take you to the mansion." The airhostess gestured down the stairs.

Adriano nodded. He spotted his sleek black limousine pulling onto the driveway. That

    THE SURGERY WAS an emergency one, given the urgency of Emily's condition and the influence of Adam Levrone, so as soon as he was done signing it off, Emily was wheeled into the operating room and a troppo of doctors rushed in after her. They knew the severity and seriousness of the case if anything went wrong, so the hospital made sure only the top best doctors were assigned to the operation."Aren't you going to join them?" Adam asked as Hozel was still with him, going through the signed document.Hozel looked up, his eyebrow raised as he shook his head and said, "I am not a neurosurgeon. Your wife's cade needs the hands of specialists, and i can assure you, that is what she is getting."Adam nodded. His mind was slightly at ease."They are going to open up her skull," Doctor Hozel said. He pulled a makeshift dummy skeleton and laid it on his table, popping open the skull. "And then drain the fluid and blood clot in the brainbox."The demonstration was very graphic for Adam. He turne

    THE WARD WAS silent and heavy. It had a constant but very quiet buzzing in the air, the type of buzzing sound that one would forget existed until the machines were turned off.And the machines themselves were very big and impressive looking. Adam had only seen them on TV shows and magazines. He could not believe that his wife was about to be taken into one of them."Doctor Hozel," a man in a white coat and plastic goggles over his face called.The doctor nodded and they both walked towards the man."I was waiting for you to get here before I began," The man said."Mr Levrone, this is Doctor Zachary, he will be carrying out the scans on your wife."Adam shook hands firmly with Zachary."I take it you already know what we are here to do," Zachary said as he gestured to his attendants to go and prep Emily to be rolled into the machine.Adam nodded, biting the quick of his fingers nervously."While we do not hope to find something bad," Zachary continued. "We have to be prepared for the w

    THE LEVRONE PRIVATE jet landed in the states almost 13 hours later.Fot Adam, it had been 12 long hours of checking in on Emily every 30 minutes to see if she was getting better, but she was not. Instead, she had run a very high temperature, which Adam tried his best to regulate by mopping her head and neck with cold water.From fever, she began vomiting and then slept restlessly, often shivering and waking up with beads kf sweat dotting her forehead.When the plane touched down, Adam breathed a heavy sigh of relief. He had already made calls to make sure there was a medical team waiting for them at the airport private hanger. "Welcome back home, sir," the pilot's voice blated through the speaker. "Please wait for the seatbelt sign to stop flashing before -"But Adam was already on his feet and carrying Emily down the aisle. "Open the fucking door!" He yelled to one of the airhostesses who immediately obeyed. He carried Emily down the stairs to meet with the ambulance and medical eme

    "MRS LEVRONE, CAN you hear me? Blink if you can hear me." "Emily..."Emily groaned and blinked slowly. Her vision was blurry and focused."Mrs Levrone, can you hear me?"She groaned and nodded, the action sent a wave of pain through her entire skull. She whimpered and sank back into the pillow."Easy, easy," the gentle voice said to her. "Keep your eyes closed, okay?" She obeyed, and kept her eyelids together."Mr Levrone, let's close the windows. She might be sensitive to light now."Adam hurriedly pressed a button on the remote controller and the shutters immediately fell, he pressed another button and the room went dark, only lit by some dim bulbs."You can open your eyes now,"Emily slowly opened her eyes. Her visionblurred a bit but then focused so she saw a local doctor bent over her. He was dressed in his white coat and had thick eyeglasses. He was peering into her face. "Do you feel any pain?" He asked. "Apart from your head..."She started to shake her head, but remembered t

    EMILY SAT AT the beach, her toes sinking into the wet sand as she overlooked the horizon, watching the set of the deep golden sun. Her husband, Adam, sat beside her. He was lying in relaxation on the chair too, getting as tan as his dark skin would allow. As if he could feel Emily staring at him, he opened his eyes and looked up. A soft grin spread across his face. "Do you want to go in, Mrs Levrone?" He asked.It all still felt surreal to Emily. The fact that she was married was not something that she was getting used to, but Adam had made it a thing to call her by their surname, and it always made her smile. "Mrs Levrone..." she repeated under her breath. "I still have a hard time..."Adam got out of the chair easily for a man of his bulky size. He extended a hand and said, "Shall I go down on my knee and propose to you once more?" He asked. "Because i would."Emily grinned and shook her head. She slipped her hand into his hand and allowed herself to be pulled up and into his arms.

    JEAN STARED AT his phone for long minutes after he ended the call. His brain was spinning as he tried to put two and two together.He still did not want to believe that Avery was dead. The thoughts alone sent sharp shards of pain into his heart, and he feared what would happen if he accepted the news. He was ready to keep on living in denial.Clarance Rossi was crying for Avery in the news?That piece of information did not sit right with Jean. How had Clarance known that Avery was dead?There was no news outlet that carried the cause of death. Jean was so confused about his next line of action. What was he supposed to do?He stacked the gardening equipment against the wall and walked out. He stood outside for some seconds, and then on an afterthought, he walked to the neighboring house and knocked.At first, he thought there was no one else in also, but then the door opened and the familiar face of the elderly man came into view. Barney recognized Jean immediately because he had see
