L Y D I A
(Four weeks later)
Mom was buried two days ago and we were now packing up her things.
"You can come to Italy you know," I said to Ash as we packed most of mom's stuff into a large boxes.
"And do what?"
"You can finish college and get a job," I said and he sighed.
"I don't know sis," he said and Valerio walked in.
He was wearing a black tank top and grey sweatpants.
"Hey," I gave him a small smile and he placed a kiss on my forehead.
"You guys need help?" he asked
"No, these are you last boxes" I said as I looked around the room.
"Oh there's some people downstairs. They said their here about the house"
"What? Why?" I said
"I'm selling the house," Ash said
"What?"
"I'm selling the house Ly," he repeats
"But mom loved this house, I love this house,"
"We'll talk about this later" he said before walking out.
"No Ash,"
"Baby it's okay-"
"No it's not Valerio. He can't just sell the house. Mom loved it, I mean she bought it ten years ago after her divorce. This house has so many good and happy memories of the three of us," I said as tears formed in my eyes.
I shove the box I was packing off the table and it fell before I heard glass breaking.
"Fuck," I said and was about to bend down.
"It's okay I'll do it" Valerio said before bending down.
He picked up the box and the glasses of a picture frame was now broken. It was a image of mom and I when I was around eight years old.
He gave me the frame before a note fell out.
I opened the note before reading it
"Dear Lydia. Incase and your reading this it means that I have passed away. We always said we would win this fight but even though I'm not with you anymore it doesn't mean we lost. I won because I had you and Ash with me and I thank God for you both"
Tears we now running down my cheeks and I sat down.
"There's something I wished I could tell you when I was alive but I was a coward. Sweetheart Abram is not your father and that is why he did what he did to you when he found out. Your biological father is out there somewhere and so is Luna. I'm sorry I failed you and I'm sorry I didn't tell you this when I was alive. I'm sorry. I love you Lydia forever and always love mom" I finished reading the note and Valerio wrapped his arms around me.
"It's okay baby" he said while rubbing my back.
A few minutes past and I pull away from Valerio and Ash walked in.
"Are you okay?" Ash asked while walking towards me.
"Mom left a note for me. Good news is that asshole isn't my father" I said
Ash pulled me into a hug before releasing me.
"Don't sell the house Ash please," I begged and he nod.
"Okay, I won't sell the house," he said.
I let out a yawn and Ash picked up a box.
"You should go lay down Angel. Ash and I will finish up," Valerio said and I nod.
I went to my room before laying down. I soon fell asleep and after a couple hours I was woken up by Valerio and Ash's voice.
"Score!" they both yelled and I got up.
I checked the time and it was five p.m. meaning I was sleeping for five hours.
I went downstairs to see both Ash and Valerio sitting on the couch with beers in their hands.
"Fuck I haven't done this since I was fifteen" Valerio laughed and I walked towards them.
I placed my hands Valerio shoulders and he looked up.
"Oh hey baby, did we wake you?" he asked as Ash turned around.
"Yes" I said while walking around the couch.
"I'm sorry," they both said and I smiled.
I took a seat next to Valerio and Ash got up.
"Orange juice or apple juice?"
"Apple," I said and he nod before leaving.
"We leave tomorrow," Valerio said and I leaned into him.
"Okay," I said as he wrapped his arms around me.
"Here you go," Ash said as he walked in. I opened the can before taking sips of it.
"So when's our flight?" Ash asked and I looked at him.
"You're coming with us?" I asked and he smiled before nodding at me
"Valerio is willing to give me a job so I'm close to my little sister and nephew or niece," he said and I grinned before hugging him.
"Wait a job?" I said before looking at Valerio.
"I own restaurants, hotels and clubs. I doesn't have to do anything illegal baby," he said and I looked at Ash.
"Are you okay with that?" I asked and he nod.
"I love you Ash," I said
"Love you too Ly," he said and we continued to watch the football game.
•••••
"This is your house?" Ash said while looking around.
"Okay first a private jet, now a mansion," he said snd I smiled.
Living with Valerio is top tier lifestyle.
"You can stay here or-" Valerio started
"Our house it would just be Damon, Marco, Taylor, me and you. If you want," Tyler said
"Okay I think I'll go with the guys," Ash said while placing his bags down.
"Baby, I need to sleep I have classes tomorrow," Ivy said.
"Okay guys I have to bounce," Tyler said before standing.
"I'll see you tomorrow," Ivy said while hugging me.
"Bye," I said and they left.
"There's five cars outside take your pick," Valerio said to Ash.
"You serious?"
"Yes, you're apart of the family now," Marco said as Valerio walked to the door.
The guys followed and I went to kitchen.
I took out a bag of lays potato chips before going to the living room.
"Ly?"
Turning around Ash was walking towards me.
"I got a car," he said and I smiled.
"Do you like it?"
"Like? I love it," he said and my smiled widens.
"I'm leaving now," he said and I got up.
"Okay. I love you bye" I said and he gave me a hug.
"I love you too" he said after releasing me.
He walked away and I sat down before taking out my phone. I began strolling through my gallery as I looked at old videos with mom and Ash.
Who's my real dad mom?
And who's Luna?
I came across an old video and I clicked on it before it started playing.
"If I had one wish I'll ask for lots and lots of chocolate," I said and mom laughed.
"Too much chocolate isn't good sweetheart,"
"What about you mom?" Ash asked from behind the camera
"I already have everything I could wish for and that you two," she said and I began smiling as the video stopped.
"I love you mom" I said before hearing footsteps.
Valerio walked in before taking a seat next to me. He placed a kiss on my forehead and I hugged him
"Do you have to go to work?" I asked
"Yes," he said while running his fingers up and down my arm and I sighed.
He looked at his watch and I released him.
"I'll be home before you wake up," he said and I nod.
He placed a kiss on my very small bump then my lips.
"I love you both" he said before standing
"I love you too baby," I said and he left soon.
After watching two episodes of Tom and Jerry I went to bed. When I woke Valerio was laying down next to me.
I got up and turned my alarm off before it went off. I went to the bathroom got a shower and brushed my teeth.
I got dress before grabbing a white jeans jacket.
As I applied my lipgloss Valerio walked into our closet.
He wrapped his arms around me and rest his chin on my head.
"You're so beautiful" he said and I smiled.
I picked my phone up to check the time.
"Are you sure you want to do this angel. Online would be-" he asked
"Baby I won't to," I said
"Okay angel," he said then placed a kiss on my head.
"Can you call Cesar?"
"No need I'm taking you," he said before walking out.
He took a shower as I went downstairs and made my breakfast. He came down minutes later and I hand him a cup of coffee.
We went to his car and he started driving. He stopped outside of the campus and I was about to open my door.
"No" he said and I looked at him. He got out before walking to my door.
He opened the door and I laughed before shaking my head.
"Was that really necessary,"
"Yes," he smiled as he held his hand out for me. I got out and he wrapped his arms around.
"Have a good day," he said
"You too," I said and he pulling me into a kiss.
"Valerio everyone is watching," I against his lips
"Good," he smirked before pulling away.
"I love you," I said as he placed his shades on.
"I love you too angel," he said and I began walking to the entrance. I saw Ivy and she waved at me.
Smiling at her I walked towards her. I turned around and Valerio was staring at me.
I sent him wave and small smile and he gave me a small wave before getting into his car.
"You ready?" Ivy asked and I nod.
••••
After our classes Cesar picked us up. After dropping Ivy off Cesar brought me home.
I exited the car and went inside. Valerio wasn't home so I did my assignments before consuming dinner.
"Thank you Melissa" I said after placing my dishes in the dishwasher.
"Your welcome Lydia," she smiled and I walked out. I went to my room and took a shower.
I opened the bathroom door and Valerio appeared infront me.
"Fuck Valerio," I said before hitting his chest
"I didn't mean to scare you angel," he said while smiling.
Sighing I wrapped my arms around his neck and his hands rested on my ass
"How was work?"
"Okay," he said
"School?"
"It was okay too,"
"How's Ash?"
"Great the guy has skills," he said and I smiled.
That's my bro
"I'm gonna get a shower," he said and I released him.
