Alessio’s POV
I blinked in surprise at the sight before me
“M-Mother?” I slurred, stumbling towards her with open arms.
“You’re drunk,” She said nonchalantly and scrunched up her nose in disgust as I enveloped her into a tight embrace.
Way to state the obvious.
“You reek of alcohol! Let’s get you cleaned up, figlio.”
“Us Italians have huuuuge feet.” I hiccupped, examining the ginormous red sock in my hand.
“Those are where we put your presents, love.” She let out a chuckle, which floated in the stuffy air.
My sparkling green eyes open as wide as an owl as I watched my mother fall to the floor and hold onto her lower abdomen, a pool of crimson red blood surrounded her slender figure.

The tantalizing aroma of coffee fills the air, replacing the stench from drunken idiots and cheap perfume. Strolling into the kitchen, I face no one but the wonderful goddess I have been thinking about for what seems like eternity.
“Excited for Christmas?” She asks, clapping her hands together whilst grinning like a child.
“Excited? Last year he thought it’d be a nice surprise to drop a tonne of ice on the streets of almost twenty states in the states.” Lorenzo’s eyes glittered with mischief
“You don’t like Christmas?” Andrea gawked; putting her coffee down on the table and her hands on her hips. “Can’t say I’m the biggest fan.” I interject as she pokes my chest playfully.
“Scrooge.” She sticks her tongue out
“Oh the pain... I can’t bear it!” I feign my hurtfulness, putting my hand on my heart as our crystal glasses filled with warm coffee clink. My lips touch the top of the glass and I feel it slide down my tongue and into my stomach.
“This feels like cement.” Andrea says, letting a drop of the beverage drip down from the corner of her mouth. A blush creeps onto her cheeks as her hair covers her face like a curtain; I tuck a strand of her thick hair behind her

    A tale! I have a tale to tell- a terrible, troublesome tale, but a tale nonetheless. Would you like to hear it? If so, open your mind and your heart, but be warned- this is no ordinary tale of heroes and monsters; this is a tale of twisted hearts and treacherous minds, with a not-so-happy ending. This, my dear friends, is the tale of a mirror.…

    True pain is hard to find and probably easy to experience. When I look at the paper planes soaring through the room, my pain seems to subside. It’s strange how such a little thing could have such a large impact on my life–my emotions, my physical state. The soft plush of my duvet under my body wasn’t as calming as staring at the paper planes, but I find it soothing in the state of being knackered. Which is one of the things I can’t possibly be right now especially with my mental state.…

    Two weeks later and I haven’t heard anything from Kye which really shouldn’t surprise me, but it does. Jay hasn’t really said anything about what happened and I don’t think he really cares. He’s been calling me more often so I think that means whoever he was supposed to be seeing cut him off. This has all been happening for a purpose; every single time we try to go against each other it never works out. We are meant to be for each other. .…

    15 days until deployment -------- "I have two weeks, a day, and approximately 8 hours with Lauren. To put it into simpler terms that 's 15 days or 21,600 minutes. Probably 21,598 minutes after figuring out the conversion of days into minutes. Lately, I 've been reading a lot of books on military families and children, which I think was to make me feel better but has seemed to do the complete opposite. As if telling me to prepare for death and to stay positive during it would help me feel better about my soon-to-be wife going to war.…
