"Come here," Alessandro asked and Bianca
came closer to him. He quickly pecked her forehead and hugged her tight.
"You look so cute when you lie and get caught." Alessandro chuckled.
With Alessandro's action Bianca was
dumbfounded and watched him in surprise.
What just happened? Did he just kiss her?
Does that mean anything?
She shook her head and cupped her cheeks
which were red as a cherry.
"I-I must go now." Bianca stammered.
"Where?" Alessandro whispered in her ear.
"To-to shift back," She replied.
"Let me drive you." He smelled her hair,
inhaling all strawberry flavored shampoo.
"I-I"
Right then Darren entered the mansion breaking the moment between two newly
budding hearts.
"Hey man! You canceled all of your meetings today. Are you sick... or not?" Darren reached inside the living room just to witness Alessandro and Bianca positioned very close. 'What were they doing?' he thought and shrunk his forehead trying to analyze the situation.
Little did he know the temperature of the living room was above normal. "God! I need some cold water, why is it so hot?" Darren huffed and walked towards the kitchen. On the other hand Alessandro was beyond
than disappointed that their magical
moment was over and all because of Darren.
"Stupid" He muttered making Bianca giggle.
Shifting the orphanage was less hectic than
thought. Bianca introduced Alessandro
to Roma and explained to her how Henry
tricked both Bianca and Alessandro. Roma
was happy that her child should not sacrifice
herself but had eyes on Alessandro. What
was his objective to help her, help them?
But soon she solved the puzzle. The answer
was Bianca. He had his eyes on her and
this time those eyes held care, sincerity,
commitment and above all... love. He loved her. Roma smiled with satisfaction and laughed how oblivious Bianca was about her
surroundings, she was such a pure soul.
"Alessandro, Can I have a talk with you?"
Roma asked Alessandro.
"Sure, why not? Please excuse us." Both of them moved toward a private space.
"Why are you helping us?" She needed
confirmation.
"I owe Bianca. She saved my life and this is the least I could do." Alessandro replied safely.
"I understood she saved you and did a great
deed, now tell me why did you help us?" This
time Alessandro hesitated. Should he reveal
his agenda to a stranger? But she was like
Bianca's mother.
"I like her." Alessandro blurt and Roma smirked.
"Many men do." Roma smiled. "She is a very lovable girl and one of the possessive men just tried taking everything from us and act as guardian to Bianca. What are your tricks?" Roma folded her arms.
"I don't doubt on Bianca's popularity among men. Even everyone here is charmed by her but I don't want to impose myself on her.
Only she can decide whether I stay in her life permanently or temporary but I can try my luck." Alessandro smiled.
"That's the only thing I wanted to hear. Treat
her well, she is very precious to me." Roma
indirectly gave her blessings to him to which
Alessandro promised her to do the same.
