Lissy Romano

I was laying on Vincenzo's chest as tears fell from my eyes. I was staring at Jax, he was playing with the little blue ball, Santino brought him.

I wanted to just forget about everything and to be normal again, but I couldn't. I couldn't talk...I just couldn't. It's like every time I try to talk I know that something bad would happen.

"Lissy, you want to eat your toast?" Vincenzo asked as he looked at the plate...it looked delicious, but I wasn't hungry

I shook my head.

"But you need to eat something." Vincenzo said

I shook my head again.

"Lissy, let's go downstairs I will make you something." Vincenzo said as he petted my head

I took the tablet and wrote...

Where's the chef?

"It's his wife's birthday..." Vincenzo said as he sat up

I hope that you gave him a present for her, from us.

"Yes, we surprised her with tickets to Bali with her husband. He won't be able to make food for us, for at least two weeks." Vincenzo said as he stood up from my bed

I sat up and pulled him closer to me. I don't know why, but I feel better when I'm in his arms. It feels safer...he wouldn't hurt me...he would protect me...

"Come here, let's go downstairs. We can eat and then watch a movie afterwards." Vincenzo said as he winked at me

I nodded my head...it will be cool. Movie night with my eldest brother...cool.

"Take your tablet with you." Vincenzo said as he helped me up

I took the tablet and picked little Jax up in my arms. He licked my face and then I followed Vincenzo out of my bedroom.

We walked to kitchen and I sat on the chair. Jax was walking around sniffing every corner and just smelling my feet...haha...

"What you want to eat?" Vincenzo asked sternly "And you have to eat something." he added

I showed him what I wrote on the tablet...

Pizza?

He looked at it and smiled "Yes, we can eat pizza...you want to make one or order?" he asked

I don't mind.

"Okay, we can order pizza, I know pizzeria, their pizzas are always delicious." he said as he looked at me

Later. We were sitting in the living room. Vincenzo turned on TV and gave me the remote. On the coffee table in front of us were placed three pizzas. Next to them there was placed big bowl with cheese flavored Doritos and soda.

"Pick what you want." he said as he took a slice of pizza

I went through Netflix and picked: 'The Croods: A New Age'
