“Did you see her profile?”I said, not wanting to touch it.
He nodded.“I had to look.”
“And?”
“She looks good,” he said.“She’s beautiful.I know why Dad fell in love with her.”
“Yeah,” I said.“It’s a pity that her beauty wasn’t more than skin deep.”
“You want to see her?”he said, getting ready to show me her profile.
I shook my head.“She’s someone I never want to see again.Not in person, not online, not anywhere.She’s dead to me.She might be our mom, but only biologically.I want nothing to do with her, Stefano.”
“So what do we do, then?”He looked at me, and I could tell he was experiencing the same emotions as I was.His bright-blue eyes looked lost, nervous, and worried, and I reached out and pulled him into a hug.I grabbed the back of his neck and squeezed.
“You’re a fighter, Stefano.I’m a fighter.We’ll get through this.”
“Thanks, bro,” he said, looking up at me.“So, I just delete the message or—”
I grabbed the phone from him and typed in quickly.
Stefano:We don't want anything to do with you.Just leave us alone.
I pressed send.
“If she’s brazen enough to respond to that”—I shrugged—“well, she deserves what’s coming to her.”
He nodded slowly.“Okay, bro.I trust whatever you decide.”
“Yeah, hopefully, she doesn’t respond.”
“So, how’s Valentina?”Stefano cocked his head to the side and gave me a wink.
“She’s fine, thank you very much.”
“Did you have some morning sex?”
“No, we did not.”
“Oh, I’m sorry.”
“I could have if I wanted to, but I didn’t.”I glared at him.
“Sure,” he said, laughing.
“I could have.But this is a job and nothing more.”
“If you say so.No need to be so defensive.”
“You know what, Stefano?”
“No.What, Sam?”
“Forget about it,” I said.“Let me get my food and then let’s figure out what else we’re going to do today.”
