Chapter 6 - Bella Mia is back

Angelo 

Bella mia is back 🌹💗💗

It took almost losing the woman I love, to realize I need her more in my life than she needs me. This has been the most trying week I've ever had. Sunday Lunch with Cleo; her mother,the twins, and my dad went well considering the bomb Cleo dropped. I gave her time and it seemed to work . She came back home with me to the Massa Estate. The twins also came back home with us. Gio was with his real father Bryan. Last night before we went to bed I scheduled a meeting with my dad. He said he would come through in the morning. Cleo wasn't due back until this afternoon. I told her I wanted to do lunch with her and she didn't protest. She gave me a kiss goodbye and left me with a minor case of blue balls. Gianna was officially the twins nannny and she was watching them. They are already a year old and Cleo went out out with Pia so it was an all boys half day today.

I was in the nursery playing with Pio when he looked up and said ; papa . I looked at the door, and there was my dad smilling at us. He came in to give him a hug and a kiss. Giana came in and we left the room. I walked to my office across the hall. As soon as I closed the door I poured my father a glass of water. As soon as we both sat down at the lounge area of my office I started talking; 

"Papa I love you and mama a lot."

" Sí I know."

"Cleo said she remembered the day she got shot , and it wasn't by you. "

"I know."

"What the hell happened? "

"Your mother snapped ."

"What do you mean snapped dad?"

"I was in the kitchen at the Lakehouse when I heard your mother screaming at Cleo. She had taken one of the guns underneath the chairs and she had it aimed at Cleo. Rachel was there to kidnap Gio ; but Cleo was , again at the wrong place at the wrong time. "

"What sparked the argument between you them?"

"Gio "

"How?"

My dad took deep breath .

"He was talking to Cleo's tummy."

"That boy sometimes is as crazy as his uncle "

"You think?"

"I know."

" I asked him why he was talking to Cleo's tummy and he said ;he might have a brother or sister in Cleo's tummy. Cleo saw Rachel before I did and jumped to save Gio just as your mother went hysterical and trigger happy. When I asked her why? She said; you were better off. When I called you I lied. I would never hurt Cleo. "

"You are her biggest fan."

" Yes but I'm looking at someone who is her biggest supporter and partner in crime."

I was in disbelief . What did Cleo ever do to my mother? She has only ever been tolerant.

"Mom has been behaving strangely lately . "

"Yes. Thats why I booked her into one of the best mental facilities."

"Dad please stop lying to me I'm not thirteen anymore. "

My dad chuckled. 

"You shaved your beard and you look younger. "

"Well Pio was confused this morning, but he recognized my voice and smell."

"Are we okay Angelo ?"

"Sí papa. Ti amero." 

We stood up and we gave each other a hug . When he let go we both walked out and went downstairs to the kitchen and started making lunch together. Gianna brought through Gio who was wearing my favourite jumper that had blue and white stripes and warm cotton gray joggers. 

I ran over to take him and showered him with hugs and kisses he was laughing and saying ; papa. 

"Yes Pio papa. Come on we are going to have some fruits ."

My dad looked up and spoke; 

"Does Pio have any alergies ?"

"Not that I know of. Pia was a bit nigly lastnight. Cleo got up a couple of times to soothe her."

"Is Cleo still remembering all the bad stuff? "

"The good stuff is coming through so nah she remembered making love to me. "

"I hope she will remember everything."

"I will have my Bella back . She started calling me Blue."

I sat Pio down on the high chair and started feeding him .

"By the way I forgot to tell you that some reporter has been digging into your past." 

I shook my head .

"Who is it this time? "

" Carlo will have the full name and details by the end of the day. Cleo should also be on the look out. "

"Marc is back in town with Amber. "

"Your ex? "

I looked at Pio and he didn't look okay... 

" Yes I need to tell Cleo that he was my ex. I ran into Amber the other day and she told me she's not getting along with Marc."

My father took a deep breath and spoke;

"She hangs out with boys from the rival gangs. She was arrested in one of the club you own last week; got into a fight with a good boy and now she's back causing more trouble."

"Pa she is a good girl. I will talk to her when I go see Marc. "

I cleaned up Pio's table and picked him up . He felt too warm and started crying 

" Angelo where do you keep the thermometer? Gio doesn't look too good." 

" In the nursery. Gianna!"

Giana came walking in from the lounge and shot me a panicked look . 

"Boss something's wrong with Pio... " 

"I can see that. How long has been on and off?"

"For the past two days. "

"Get the car I am taking him to the hospital. Hang on champ you'll be okay my boy. " 

I looked at him and he continued crying . When my dad and I made it ouside he called Brent. Absent mindedly I forgot to tell him I suspended him.

I pulled out my phone and dialed Cleo's number. She picked up after two rings. 

"Hey Blue. Is everything okay?"

"Hey babe no. We are on our way to the ER."

" what happened ?"

"Pio. We think he is sick and it might be serious. "
