LUCREZIA“Should I bring you to the hospital?” Pericles asked me worriedly as he held all my hair in one hand and rubbed my back with the other to help me vomit all the contents of my stomach to the toilet. Pericles is such a great help. I don’t know what would happen to me if he wasn’t here. Why do I have to fall sick at the most inconvenient time while Pietro is miles away from where I was?I gripped the rim of the toilet so tightly as wave of nausea washes over me while feeling lightheaded and dizzy at the same time. I don’t know what’s wrong with me, I just woke up feeling like this. It’s not like I’m tiring myself or made contact with anyone who was sick. I was only stuck all day inside the house with Pericles to keep me company and he has been taking a good care of me. I don’t see why I’m getting sic all of a sudden Pericles continued rubbing my back to help me a

LUCREZIA“Who was it?” I teared my eyes away from the key when Pericles had finally fished out his phone from his pockets right before he notices me staring at his key. “J-just one of the guys,” Pericles answered me as he raised his eyes at me after reading the caller ID.The way he sounded when gave me his answer gave away that he was lying. Whoever was calling him, it surely wasn’t one of the guys. Pericles stands up, his phone still ringing on his hand. “I’m just going to answer this call,” he muttered before excusing himself leaving me alone at the dining room with the set of keys I think he didn’t realized that he had left with me. As soon as Pericles was gone, I grabbed the keys on the table and stared at the single key that can lock and unlock the door to the room that I am most curious at. I rubbed my thumb across the key as I thought about the lock room.&ldquo

LUCREZIAI couldn’t hide the smile on my face as Pietro held me gently, his hand softly placed behind my back as if I were a fragile doll as he guided me through the dance floor. I had been invited to many different parties and been to night parties, each offering different types of dances to liven up the party. However, I had never danced with any man before. It isn’t because I’m saving my first dance for Pietro – partly, yes, but it’s also because I found the whole thing to be so intimate. Imagine dancing with a man as he held you closely like this, a mere breath away from each other. It isn’t something that I’d find myself doing. I don’t know why people like it and engage in doing it even with complete strangers as partners. To me, wouldn’t that feel utterly uncomfortable and awkward?I always wondered what they liked about it, the intimate touching with your faces just inches away from each other, not until I experienced it myself as I danced with Pietro. Having Pietro holdin

LUCREZIAI swallowed hard when I heard Fazio’s words. Tiburzio Leuzzi’s dementia is supposed to be a secret that no one should know of. Not even everyone in Tiburzio Leuzzi’s family knows about his secret. Orenzio and Concetta, along with their kids doesn’t even have any idea that he is suffering from Dementia.Tiburzio Leuzzi’s dementia is well-guarded secret. If only I wasn’t at the wrong place at the wrong time, I wouldn’t have witnessed Tiburzio Leuzzi suffering an episode of dementia. Who would have even thought that a man like Tiburzio is hiding such a secret. Tiburzio Leuzzi has always been a strong provocative man with a temper that is shorter than a matchstick. It’s hard to imagine him as a man who suffers from any mental illness.How did Fazio Serrano found out that Tiburzio Leuzzi had dementia when even Tiburzio’s own son doesn’t even know about it.My body ran cold when a chilling thought came to my mind. I looked up and secretly glanced at Pietro. I remember that he wa

LUCREZIAPericles and I both waited in the car for Pietro to arrive. After Serrano made his upsetting the announcement, pushing even the hosts away from the party, everyone lost their mood to party and thought that it would shameless to stay in the party when the host themselves had already left.Thank Serrano for dampening the mood. He killed the joy out of a hundred of people tonight because of selfishness. Now that what he wished to happen is now about to happen, I hope that he will find happiness in it since it costs him a lot of people’s happiness. I yawned, causing a few tears in my eye. I don’t know how many times I had yawned already, I don’t know what’s taking the meeting so long. They were only talking about replacing Tiburzio as the Leuzzi’s Don and formally announcing Orenzio as the new Don. What’s taking them so long? I stretched my arms above me to keep myself awake. I don’t want to sleep unless I see Pietro. I caught Pericles stealing a glance at me through the rea
