Whatever happens, don't fall in love with me...
The Taormina landscape unfolds in front of me. The bay sparkled, with the moonlight illuminating it. It looks like magic running through the air. The air was indeed cold, but this scene was too beautiful to miss. I've forgotten what it's like to walk with a handsome man, with other women staring at you enviously.
Raoul could give that soaring and proud feeling, I was drunk in his charm.
“Mr Bova, you are here, what can I do for you.” A manager of this place recognized him.
“Juan, can request a place besides, is it full?”
“It's a weekend, um.” The manager looked confused, I saw there was another small spot, a high table overlooking the view of the bay directly.
“Ahh there only, can?” I want to see the view.
“Ohh high table it Miss, of course can ..” He drove us by himself, explaining the menu and drinks we could order.
“Cold not here?”
“That's okay, the view is incredible. I'm wearing my coat..” I smiled at Fabian. A couple of other couples were also beside us. “Thank you for bringing me here, right the view here is amazing.”
“It was someone's house, my friend had to go back and forth for almost a year to close a deal with the owner. I thought after this famous restaurant I could even sell again at even more fantastic value, although I wouldn't do it now, pity my friend, he worked hard to get this up and running. See this place to be full of surroundings converted into cafes and restaurants, but still our best place here.” Yes he was right, this place has the best location setting.
“Hmm...as usual, besides sharp, it also seems that your luck is good.”
“How was your childhood, where did you live?”
“I'm from Palermo.”.
“Bova instead of your family from Naples?”
“Main family.”
“I'm a foster child, my father died in an. My mother went to marry another. I was raised by my father's Uncle. Now that I am in charge of the investment of the Bova family that Uncle trusts, I call him Father.” And suddenly I understood why he said don't fall in love with her. Why he doesn't think women are a position he should probably value more than his business. I looked at him fixedly, maybe in his heart he kept disappointment in women.
“It sure is heavy for you..” She smiled a little.
“There was a hard time, of course, everyone had their own weight and it was a kind of self-forging. There's nothing to be sorry about, as long as you deal with it properly, you'll reap the rewards. The past has to happen so, it has shaped my path until now.” He said it calmly.
“Your ex-husband, he now works where...Yesterday I saw the car was good enough to brag to you.”
“I don't know, he said he was the manager of a club in Milan. I don't care..”.
“Ohh club manager, have a car like that? Interesting though...Why did you shut yourself down for these three years.”
“I'm not closing myself, I'm just enjoying my time of solitude.” I smiled at him. “I told you love doesn't always make you happy.”
“Master Bova, you are here.” A woman's voice made me look at her now
