Vera's POV

"Vera baby, can you get me the milk bottle?" Mattia asks.

Mattia and I have been dating for almost a year now, and we were blessed with a baby boy about a month ago. 

I admire the sight of him cradling our little Marco trying to ease up his tears.

"Earth to Veraaaa," Mattia sings and I snap out of my daydream.

"Mhm?" I give him a grin.

"I asked if you can get me the milk bottle?" Mattia smiles back while raising an eyebrow.

"Oh, yea. One sec," I grab the heated milk bottle from the bottle heater and walk over to the recliner where he was sitting and hand it over to him.

"What were you thinking about?" Mattia asks.

"Us. Our life. How happy we are," I inform him.

"Oh, about that. Kairi and Lani invited us to the beach tonight," Mattia brushes off my statement.

Weird? He never does that.

"Okay, I'll keep that in mind," I tell him.

"Vera," a voice says.

I turn to Mattia.

"You said something?" I ask him.

He looks up at me.

"No," he frowns and look back at Marco.

"VERA!" The voice is loud and clear, yet I don't know where it's coming from. 

I quickly exit the room despite Mattia's protests and make my way to our bedroom.

I pass by Alejandro and he looks at me.

Alejandro is still single. He thinks that relationships are a waste of time and effort.

That's why he still lives with us...

No shade though... Maybe just a bit... Okay, actually a lot of shade...

"Wake up," he says.

"Huh?" I ask very confused.

This is probably a prank...

"Mattia needs you—we all need you," he continues.

"What do you mean? I'm right here," I protest.

"Just please wake up," he says.

"Ale, are you doing coke again?" I ask.

This boy is delusional...

"What—no. I asked where Mattia was," he frowns.

"No, you just told me to wake up," I say.

"What? No I didn't," he laughs.

"I'm pretty sure you did—whatever. He's in the nursery," I tell him and he nods, then walks away. 

What the hell is going on?

I decide to go downstairs and grab myself a snack.

Mattia's POV

I could've prevented this if I hadn't pissed them off like this.

"Mattia... You good man?" Alejandro asks.
