Chapter 103
Angelo
I used to wonder what what it would be like to have a brother ; until I found out I had a twin brother who I thought was amazing ; but turned out to be very materialistic and entitled . I have never met this Luigi before, because he is usually affable ,unless he is putting on an act which would be unlike him.
When he came down to the kitchen Daniel followed and gave me the thumbs up and I did the same . He on the other hand is the coolest brother, he is fair , and straightforward . He doesn't tolerate nonsense and oh Luigi always shows him the respect he deserves.
When my uncle came down; he came down with my mother who looked okay . When my dad saw me he did a double take too. I know I looked more like my father because I had cut my hair and I wasn't wearing a suit and tie .
Gabriella greeted me ;
" Hi Michelangelo how are you feeling ?"
I hadn't uttered a word since Luigi came down an
Chapter 104 Cleo When my body shuts down and regenerates; its probably because I need the rest and if I don't pay attention to it ; my body will either figure out a way to make me pay for not taking care of it,or not recovering the way it needs to . When Daniel saw me trying to hide the fact that I was in pain; he called me out on not being completely honest . I actually didn't want him worrying about me for nothing. I was strong enough to accept the fact that I needed to recover from what happened the night before with Blue . I wasn't about to tell Daniel that Angelo had fucked my brains out ,and he had me coming every time . The hotel walls were thick enough so even if we were noisy you couldn't hear a word. I wasn't mad at Angelo but sub consciously ; ever since Erica mentioned Mia Perelli, I have not been okay . I was going to tell Angelo, but he got sick on the day we were suppose
Chapter 105AngeloI would like to think that I'm a good parent and Cleo and I are doing a great job in raising our kids . However we can't stop them from making poor choices .The twins already know how to ride bikes and use their tablets it goes without saying because; my bank balance has taken a beating. They just decided to shop to their hearts content and my father has been keeping everything they bought at our beach house in Cape Town .As soon as I walked in Pio looked at me mortified and I thought we were making progress with regards to him and I being friends and him being open to me , but I guess he still needs time he ran out and when I saw Pia on the floor crying , my heart broke she was clutching her knee in pain and I couldn't do anything to remedy the pain .Daniel came in seconds later and luckily after looking at the extent of the injury it turned out that it wasn't as serious as initially thought . When she calmed down we asked he
Chapter 106 Cleo Last night Angelo came to bed late. I was still tired given the events of the day before; I was really worried about the twins . They needed to go out a bit more and play with other kids ; go to school and make friends. They would be going back to Cape Town but Romano agreed not to let them go back with him on condition Angelo does what he agreed to do , which was ; homeschooling the kids and making sure they were protected. Yesterday Angelo managed to get Pio to open his bedroom door . Compared to Pia it is a mission to get Pio to open up and trust because he doesn't trust easily. He was afraid of what Angelo was going to say and Angelo was worried that Pio might not trust him again because he didn't make it for the last three dates that they had . He was in hospital recovering . The one thing I know about m
Chapter 107AngeloMy battle with regards to addiction was never easy I've done soft; medium, and hard drugs before and ,when I got clean I swore to myself that I would never allow myself to be a slave to any substance or drug . I remembered the I attacked Cleo when Jane drugged me. Cleo has a habit of keeping things from me for fear of hurting me .I have a dark past and I haven't had any nightmares of killing her . The only nightmares I've had are of people that I've killed killing her and that scares me. It scares me to the point where I would take out anyone who threatens her life.Yesterday morning I woke up next to her . We didn't have enough sleep but she was able to wake up and not leave me to wake up alone like she usually did. It was a great feeling to wake up next to my wife for a change. You could swear that Daniel and Cleo have a built in alarm clocks that make
Chapter 108CleoI'm not as tough as I appear to be and I don't have it all together and all sussed out . It took me a while to wrap my head around a lot of things that have been going on and what I've been through in the past four years .I thought I met the man of my dreams . Angelo ticked all the boxes and some . Even though our relationship wasn't perfect; it was perfect to me in our own way. I didn't know who saved my life the night Duncan tried to kill me, and I didn't know the very same person who had saved my life had always been connected to some of the saddest moments of my life in a strange way .I have thought of leaving Angelo . If I was the old me with no strings attached; I would have already left him, and found the next love of my life ,had amazing sex and a relationship that was drama free. Truth is there are no drama free relatio
Chapter 109AngeloI think I am programmed to ruin everything that's good . I think that's the reason why dream's come true don't happen for me . Doctor Baker had told me about the side effects of the medication they gave me, I didn't listen to him when he said I could go back home the following week after they were sure that ;I was okay and I wasn't going to have violent episodes .Given my history ; I love to burry feelings I don't want to confront because I associate any expression of feelings with drama . Cleo changed how I saw things and now that she has been gone for a week without a trace after I attacked her in a trans. I'm fine now I swear I'm okay . I also followed doctors orders .I want a chance to explain to Cleo that I wasn't going to kill her . On the day she left she was going shopping with Pia . She came back with my dad three days ago
Chapter 110CleoI could never hate Angelo. He has been both a dream come true and a nightmare turned into a beautiful dream too . Although Angelo is a Taurus with Aires moon rising , and I'm a cancerian with Libra moon rising , we've always found a way to make things work . I just can't get over what happened when I called Pia. I've never let my baby girl down and it hurt me to the core when she said what she said to me.A week after I found out that Juan was my neighbour ; I made him swear not to tell Romano where I was or anyone for that matter. I just wanted to breathe and then go back home . He said he would do it only of he could call Amy ; Carlo's girlfriend who by no means is a snitch to come and look at me assess me and fix me up . I was reluctant at first but I ended up agreeing to what he had suggested . I had promised Pia that I was coming home .When Amy checked me out she was surprised that ; I was cleaned
Chapter 111AngeloI'm thankful and very excited that Cleo is coming back home . I had to accept that I had no control over what had happened and my father had helped me see things the way Cleo did . She was afraid and she is still afraid of being with me after the incident because I had a history of violent behaviour.I miss her and talking to her this morning was good . We sort of sorted out our differences ...not that we had any ... I was still wondering who she was talking to ,or who was busy making something the background .I wanted to pick something up for her and the kids at the diner . I knew Ryan was there with Pio and my son needed to come home . He too missed Cleo but it was Friday and we had a date . Meeting to be exact and I hadn't seen him for the past three days . He also didn't know that his mother was coming back home .I placed an order and while my order was
