Chapter 154
MATTEO
When I got home and my godfather said that he needed to talk my heart seemed like it was going to come out of my mouth, my godfather has never been much of a serious person as he is now that he needed to talk, but I confess that I was expecting this after the scene that he and Aunt Alice witnessed earlier so I was soon defending myself
Matteo - Look godfather, if it is about earlier I want to apologize again, I am sorry for having forgotten you, life has been crazy, you know how it is the last year of college, conclusion work and the internship
Luís - Not to mention the life of the couple, right? Look, I know that life is busy and I know that couples fight, do you think that Alice and I don't fight? of course we fight. But Alice and I are worried about you, is there something going on that we don't know about? Luna has never been one to have these jealousy crises, does she have reason to be?
Matteo - Of course not godfather, I don't know what is going on between her and Sol, they live on a war footing and I swear I have nothing with this girl and no other
Luis - Look son, it is normal to feel attraction for other women, and even more so if you are so young, but if you are really interested in another girl, I want you to be honest with Luna, end it all, I am her godfather and I love you, but I am Luna's father and I could not bear to see my daughter suffer.
Matteo - I would never make her suffer, I love her more than anything. I can't live without her, the thought of her leaving me for that idiot supervisor of hers drives me crazy.
Luis - The jealousy comes from both parties?
Matteo - You have never seen this man, he is a Greek God compared to me, I am this skinny and dull man.
Luis - Don't belittle yourself like that, besides, that's how you won her over, just the way you are.
Matteo - he plays hard to get, buys her coffee every day, sends her flowers, chocolate, and compliments her all the time.
Luis - and you are jealous because of this? Seriously Matteo, nothing you can't do, nothing surprising, if you are so afraid of losing your girlfriend, show her that you are in the game, I guarantee that Luna would like all these gifts to be given to her by you and not by this man.
Matteo - is it? - I ask thoughtfully
Luis - Of course it is, but try not to fight over nonsense, I don't know, as soon as you go on vacation prepare a surprise for her. You are very stressed out
Matteo - Sure, do you think it is time to take her to Italy? to see where I was born and grew up?
Luis - Maybe, just take a poll to see what she wants to do.
We stayed there talking and setting the table for dinner
POV LUNA
I was afraid, but so afraid of what my mother would say, I know she would be careful because of Arthur being close, but nothing stops Dona Maria Alice from freaking out when she wants to
Luna - Mom, Matteo and I are adults now, there is no need to worry, we can solve our problems and I am sorry again for not coming to pick you up.
Alice - There is no need to be so defensive, I am not angry, just a little upset because you forgot about us. But it's okay, I know it happens, but your father, who is much more sentimental than I am, has a big mouth like that, you can talk to him later. Now is not the time for this, but then I want to have a mother-daughter talk with you
Luna - Are you going to fight with me?
Alice - do I have a reason to fight with you?
Luna - No? - I answer uncertainly
Alice - If you say you have no reason then I have no reason to fight, I just want to talk to my daughter, I want to know how things are here - points to my heart and then to my head - and here -
Luna - ah mommy it's a mess - I hug my mother and start to cry
Arthur - mommy - why is tata crying?
Dulce - she has a tummy ache, sweetheart, did you eat too much crap?
Arthur - No, I think it is lack then - smiles playfully - Don't cry, tata, I am going to take a quick shower so that we can have dinner - it must be hunger.
Luna - I wipe the tears - I've already stopped, take your bath, mom, I'm going to take advantage that you are here with him to take a bath.
Alice - ask your father to come here
I don't even answer, I just nod my head and go towards the dining room and see my father and Matteo talking and they were smiling
Luna - daddy mommy is calling you
Luis - is everything okay my child? did something happen?
Luna - Yes she is, she just asked me to call you, well I will take advantage that she is giving my brother a bath and I will take my bath - I leave ignoring Matteo asking if I was ok, I only heard my father saying to leave me alone.
I go straight to my bathroom, take off my clothes and get under the shower as soon as I hear someone knocking on the door
