V a l e n t I n a p o v:
it's been a couple of days since I found out my extended family is coming to meet me.
they are supposed to arrive tomorrow. I am pretty nervous to meet them especially my grandpa my brothers told me a lot about him and he seems very strict.
since I am pretty nervous about meeting my family I asked dad if ivy and Lucas's could sleep over he said it was fine.
so here we are in my room sadly studying. ivy is making us study because we have a chemistry test coming up and she knows me and Lucas won't study until the last minute.
how does she know this? well, when we were in freshman year we had a bio test that Lucas and I did not study for. we started studying while the teacher was passing the test out.
let's just say we got a pretty bad yelling from ivy for failing.
"ivy can we take a break I am hungry" Lucas's whines
"When are you not fat ass," I say
"bitch at least I have an ass" he shoot's backs
"I HAVE AN ASS" I yell
"Keep telling yourself that" Lucas's taunts
"so are we getting snacks?" he asks
"go into my closet in the far back there some snacks" I explain while pointing to my closet
"Why do you have snacks in your closet" ivy asks
"I live with 7 guys that eat as if Every meal was their last meal I think that explains itself" I explain
"that explains a lot-" ivy starts but gets interrupted
"THEY ARE ON THERE WAY GET READY" Elijah breaks into my room
"who's on their way?" I ask
"our family," Elijah says
"weren't they coming tmr tho?" I question
"they were but they decide to come early" he explains
"ivy you know what to do," he says
"do what?" I ask
"on it" she salutes to him as if she was a soldier
Elijah then walks out
"what's going on," I ask again but am ignored
"nothing just get in the shower I'll get you your outfit" she exclaimed
"okay?" I say confusingly
I get into the shower and do my business. once I am done I get out and see an outfit on my bed but no ivy or Lucas's.
the outfit was pretty cute. it was a black turtle neck with a plaid skirt some black tights and some black boots.
as I finish putting on my boots I hear a knock on the door.
"come in "I yell
"they're here. you ready?" Vinnie says
"Ready as I'll ever be" I assure
"where are Lucas and ivy?" I ask as we walked down the hall
"they left because they didn't want to disturb you while meeting our family" he explains
we walked for a bit more. as we got closer to the living room I could people's voices getting louder and louder.
"How could you not tell us she was back home"
"is my cousin really back home?"
"where is she"
once we stop in front of the living room Vinnie turns to me
"There are a lot of people in our family so don't get overwhelmed when you see them" he explains
"I got it, "I say with a small smile
Vinnie opens the door and everyone's head turns to the door.
"Vinnie we're have you been-" a man says but stops in his tracks when he sees me
I looked around the room and damn was Vinnie not kidding. there were so many people.
all the women were crying while the men were trying to hold in their tears.
"do you guys need tissues ?" I ask
"Come here sweetheart," dad says
I walk over to dad when suddenly someone who looks like dad but an older version starts talking
"è davvero lei?" the man asks in Italian
translation: is it really her?
"si papà è davvero lei" dad responds in Italian
translation; yes dad it's really her
"let me introduce you to your uncles and aunts," dad says
we walk over to a couple
"This is your uncle Dante and his wife Lucinda" he introduces
"and over there are their sons, David, Domenico, and damino"
I give them a smile
We then move on to the next couple.
"This is your uncle Luca and his wife Isabella" dad says
"And their children are Ciro, Matteo, Gianni, Giovanni "
"And over here is your uncle Angelo and his wife Danielle and their kids Fabian and Leo "
"Now the youngest brother, this is your uncle Romeo and his wife Raquel. Their kids are Marco, Antonio, Mario"
We then walk up to an old looking couple
Last but not least are your grandparents"
"Hi I am Valentina," I say
"Oh come here, Tesoro," my grandma says
I come over and she hugs me tightly then quickly lets go.
"Welcome back home," grandpa says with a smile
"DID GRANDPA JUST SMILE?" someone screams
