CHAPTER 118

Lorenzo

"Come on, amore mio, the broker is waiting for us," I call Francesca who is getting ready so we can see one of the houses I chose to visit.

- I'm coming, amore! Did you have to let me know at the last minute?

I laugh.

"I told you so last night.

"After making me cum, being sleepy and satisfied in your arms."

"And you wish I had a better time?"

"Only you can think about it at a time like that."

Soon she looks beautiful in white dress pants and a baby blue sleeveless shirt with a bow around her neck. On her feet, delicate white heeled sandals.

A goddess in her perfection.

How I love this woman!

Every day that passes, I feel like I love her more and the feelings I had the first time I saw her are still here.

She walks over and I hug her, smelling her perfume that drives me crazy.

"Did I tell you I love you today?"

He puts his hand on his chin as if thinking and answers: "Not yet, I thought you didn't even love me anymore." "Pout and kiss your lips passionately.

"I love you, Fran. I love you so much. Now let's go, because if we go on like this, we won't leave the house, since you drive me crazy.

We have been spending our days in a flat that my father has. I didn't want to stay in the mansion where she lived with Giuseppe and I also didn't want to stay where my father and Suzi are living as a couple of teenagers in love.

I don't judge them for it, since I'm doing the same.

Jhon and Giovanna are living in the mansion that is now hers and are leaving the space with their face, since my wife didn't want anything from there, only her personal items.

After all, it's new life.

Our new beginning...

We went to the house where I scheduled the visit at the first time, since I have some important meetings that could not be postponed in the afternoon.

"First, let's see one that's closer to the winery and away from the madness of the city."

"Isn't it bad for you, amore?"

- If you like it, nothing is bad for me, after all at the end of an exhausting day of work, you will be there, waiting for me with your affection and love. I'm not used to it, amore mio. I can't stay away from you anymore.

"I'm not used to it either. You're addictive, my Fernando.

We arrive at the imposing mansion that draws attention right at the entrance. The gates are dark gridded that give a partial view of the immense garden, where I can already see myself lying at the end of a hot afternoon, or running after my children.

My children and Francesca's, a mixture of us.

The gate opens and I follow the path with small trees well pruned on one side and the other. I park the car in front of the huge modern building and am struck by the beauty of the place.

It's even prettier than in the pictures.

I open the door and my beloved comes downstairs, looking around, delighted by what she sees.

- It's beautiful, Fernando!

"Shall we go in?"

- Let's go!

Francesca takes my hand and we head towards the front door. She even looks like a child when she gets a much-desired gift and that makes me happy.

I open the door and pick her up.

"What's that for?" He asks, surprised by my attitude.

"For good luck," I reply, inhaling her perfume and kissing her lips.

"But we don't even know if we'll keep this one."

"I'll do that in all of them." I kiss her lips again and she smiles.

Soon we are inside the huge room, where the broker is waiting for us. He smiles when he sees us and I get Francesca off my lap.

- Mr. Rocatelli, nice to meet you, we talk on the phone, I'm Rory. He extends his hand in greeting and I return the gesture.

"Oh, nice to meet you, Rory. This is my fiancée...

"Diana Zucalli," he says too excitedly for my liking.

I confess that I get jealous because of the way he looks at my wife.

"Do we know each other?" Francesca asks, watching the man who can't stop smiling.

Will he smile like that at someone else's wife?

- I don't think so, but I follow your career, I'm an enthusiast of the world of wines. And you're a celebrity. He holds out his hand and Francesca takes it, seeming to be uncomfortable with the situation.

"She's a great sommelier, Miss Zucalli.

"Soon, Mrs. Zucalli Rocatelli," I say and hug my wife possessively.

"Thank you very much," she replies unamusedly, understanding that I am not at all happy with this approach.

"Well, we came here to see the house and not to flatter my wife who is amazing, beautiful and very well committed," I mean it.

The man turns white because he realizes that I wasn't happy with his attitude and then swallows hard.

"Oh, sure, I'll show you the space."

After seeing the whole house, which is beautiful, the man leaves us alone.

- What do you think, Francesca? I ask as we look at the view from the balcony of one of the rooms.

"I just loved it and I can already see us living here, lying on this grass...

"Watching our children run all over the garden?"

I feel like your body freezes.

- What's wrong, don't you want children?

"I want to, but I didn't think you'd think about it so soon."

"I want everything with you, amore mio.

"So, I think it's a perfect idea to have our kids run around this garden. "I smiled and melted all over.

"Shall we see the other houses?"

- No, Fez, I want this one. I already see us here and I felt something good when we walked in. I want that house. The only problem would be the distance for you to go back and forth every day.

"Nothing too hard to do. If you want that house, it will be ours. I'll ask them to provide the documents, so we can move in and make it our own.

- I love that! "She hugs me and kisses me all happy.

I am the happiest man in the world to have this beautiful woman by my side.

Two days later...

With the document and keys in hand, we went to our house.

The procedures for the acquisition of the house were fast, not least because having money and influence makes everything easier.

"I'll love spending my days here with you, Francesca.

- And I with you, Fez.

"You know, now that we have our house and the employees won't arrive until tomorrow, we can start training to start our family.

"But already?"

"I want everything with you and for yesterday. I smile and squeeze his leg with the hand that's not on the steering wheel. "As long as we don't have a baby, we can have a dog. I love dogs and they will have a place to run. Since I've never been in a place of my own, my home, I've never had one, but now we have our place, so...

"I don't think it would be bad to have a dog." How about a Golden?

"Or a Boder Collie?"

"Or both."

We smile and as soon as I park, we enter our home.
