His Promise: The Mafia’s Babies

Christian paced back and forth as he stood in the hallway in front of his dad’s office and wondered whetget in or not. After he had a day to process the news he decided to tell his dad. The last thing he wantedfind out from someone else.

Lucio knew his son could be a handful and had always warned him about the consequences of his reckle‘don’t knock up some random girl, and especially not one of the girls we work with.’

He knew his father wouldn’t be having it because he had already broken two rules. Lucio had been very Christian had to take his distance from Serena.

“Christian is that you running a marathon out there? Are you on drugs?” Lucio called out to his son. Just had a great sense of hearing and had heard his footsteps. Christian felt guilty for calling out Serena yestehad ended up doing the same, and it was all because of nerves.

He was grateful for the fact that his dad was even in the office today. The last thing he wanted was to telfront of the whole family. Telling Lucio was one thing, but Francesca Lamberti was a woman who he did nwith, at least not right now. “I’m not on drugs, I didn’t want to bother you.” Christian lied as he walked inin front of his dad.

“You came to spend some time with your father? You never do.” Lucio smiled at his son. The times Christto do something non work-related were so poor, Lucio could count them on one hand. Lucio felt as if he blame and knew it was most likely due to the way he raised him.

“I’m going to tell you something, but you have to promise me that you won’t get angry,” Christian spokesounding like a young child who was trying to compromise with their parent. Lucio chuckled and leaned felt anxious for what was about to come. Christian was a bold person and barely knew any fear, so even Lthis couldn’t be good. Lucio feared for the news while Christian feared for his temper.

“Let me bring out my liquor for this one.” Lucio sighed and refilled his glass. “Take some too, because yoneed it.” He spoke while he poured a glass for Christian.

He could read the fear all over his face and prepared himself for whatever was about to come. The last tiseen Christian in fear was when his son was still a young boy. Lucio used to take him along to many dealfor the real world, while little Christian begged him not to hurt anyone.

“You better tell me now because I’m not drunk yet,” Lucio joked. Christian looked at the glass filled with picked it up gulped it down in one go. “Christian, is it that serious?” Lucio wondered while the nerves weeven more.

Christian nodded his head and stole his father’s glass so he could also empty that one. “Serena’s pregnagetting another grandchild, congrats.” Christian let out all in once before he poured himself another glasThe words ‘I’m going to be a dad’, were words he wasn’t ready for. He could shamefully admit that he hpractice it in front of the mirror, but each time it came out as a question.
