Tempted By My Uncle In-law
I remember the day I first met Valentino like it was yesterday.
My parents had promised Valerie, my elder sister to Russell Orsini, my husband. At the time, he was just a teenage boy, Valentino had not left the family or joined the mafia then, and I was still the second child of the family who had all responsibilities on her shoulder.
I remember Valerie smiling happily that day, we had not drifted apart then, she was a good elder sister and I did my best to help with her responsibilities when I could. Finding the chat of the adults boring, I remember sneaking away to the balcony for fresh air.
