I traveled out of my turf, deep down in the South, and took another man’s life with no warning. Could I promise her that everything will be ok and this won’t come to bite me in the ass? No.
“I promise you, my love, that my only goal in life is to be with you and our daughter. No matter what happens, I’ll fight for that. We’re ok, amore. We’ll always be ok.”
“We’ll always be ok.” She repeated my words, almost like she was trying to speak it into existence. “I love you, brown eyes.”
I bent down and kissed her lips. It’d been too long since I’d felt her tongue dancing with mine.
“I love you too, Mrs. Stefani. I love you like a fucking crazy man.”
I looked at her for a long time before a low laugh resonated from my throat.
“Are you laughing at me, Roman?”
“No, I’m just thinking about my brothers.”
“Brothers?”
“Hugo and Gino. It’s funny, but somehow, we all ended up looking over our women in a hospital bed. Well, not Gino; Muse wasn’t in the hospital. I think the right words would be ‘in tragedy’. We’ve all found peace and happiness after the tragedy. Maybe it’s a famiglia thing. A gangster’s happily everafter.”
“Well, I’m glad my gangster found his happily ever and I’m ready to enjoy all the good things by his side. Because he loves me, and that's all that matters.”
“That's all that matters.” This time, I spoke it into existence.
