“Guilio, are you okay?” Monica saw me just looking at my grandson. “Why are you so silent? Something wrong with his grandson?”
“No,..” He examined my expression. I leaned back on the chair, seeing the yellowing vineyard that had some of its leaves fallen to the ground.
“Since you've had this celibacy you've been weird. I'm so scared of you why-why.”
“Hmm. I'm weird.” Now he's moving to sit near me. I feel relieved now, she moved just sit I'm happy .
“Guilio, are you sure you're okay?”
“I'm good, I just feel lately I rarely see Catania. I should have taken more time to get back here.”
“Not usually you Christmas and New Year are always here.”
“Yes, the office will be off soon I will be back here at least biweekly until the beginning of the year, I remember last year I missed Christmas in Paris, I felt lost not returning home.”
“Then go back this year, Zia would be happy to see you back home.” He patted my shoulder. “Eat, .. why are you so weird lately.”
I need to separate it from Bova.
“While I'm here and the workers haven't had Christmas. I'm taking you to winery okay, they're still hunting for processing time for the distillery in the new year. You can see, my sister will give you the chart, you can know what you have to know, if you enter the export market you must know the standard quality you have to achieve.”
Three weeks couldn't have gone too far, Monica wasn't a woman who fell so fast, I had to fix my reputation in front of her, it was necessary if I told her something now, like Setsuko said she would kick me right away, Bova won easily. I'm not gonna let this ruin my debt.
“You returned to Naples on Christmas Mr Bova?”
“Yes, Uncle told us to gather every Christmas. If I told you I had Benetti's partner this year, he would be a surprise... Come visit Naples sometime, my uncle will be happy to meet you. We have winery in Macchia but not yet export orientation only regional market, if you want to expand your variety expor we will be very happy to work together.” Hm ... Well, it turns out the Bova family also has a winery, but not Fabian who manages it.
“If I had the chance. I'll definitely come..” I'm gonna try to find this guy's weak spot.
“I'll wait if so. Just call me.”
“I can't wait to bottle my first wine. I've been so happy lately.” I saw him smile, all this time considered me a friend, is it true that he never once interested me. The slightest?
Not that I'm arrogant, but I'm sure I can get whoever I want. But then it boomerang for me. He knows everything I do, my girlfriend's list, what I think and he thinks I'm an absolute bastardo.
I have to try somehow. I'm a dead end, I can't live without him right now. He holds my future.
I never thought I'd say this to someone.
Monica, non posso vivere senza... (I can't live without you)
