Impossible love 63
Maxieplus
At Rome airport we were greeted by Tinker Adamo and Roberto, it was a great surprise. I hugged Adamo for ages but he wanted Gianni's arms also, then he wanted the babies. He went for Lukas who screamed into his arms as kisses rained down on his face. Roberto looked wonderful but a little distracted by Adamo's antics.
"Is he what you mean by hunky Italians Antonio?" Angie was talking about Tinker.
"Yes baby, but I think he's married with kids." I grinned, Tinker would have been a good catch.
"I think I am going to like it here." She laughed.
The boys were grabbing anyone they could to hug and I helped Tinker stack the bags on the trollies. Then I had to grab one baby he was still whiney after his big trip, I moved away from the others because when one starts they all start. I found a seat and talked gently to little Gianni, checking his nappy which was clear I then placed him over my shoulder and rubbed his back.
He eventually let out a long burp and was smiling with me because now he feels a lot better. Sabine took him off me and I went to grab another one but they were all taken so I sat and waited.
Angie Iris and Tony had been introduced around and eventually, we all walked out to the small bus Tinker had provided.
"It's good to be back," Gianni said as he held my hand then he sat up the front with Tinker, they were talking wines. This crowd is all I could convince to come with us. Gran still wasn't the best and Federico was setting up the new shop, so Alice reluctantly bowed out.
It's been three weeks since Remo opened his shop and he now knows what it's like to work hard, his pasta is very popular and he will never look back. Maxie and Tommaso are waiting for their delivery and everything is set up for them to start trading. I have asked Nina to oversee their business and grandad will be doing their books when the money starts rolling in. I didn't have to worry about the café we had hired three backpackers to work with the full-time kids so there was plenty of staff.
Tinker did the once around the coliseum then headed north towards the vineyard. The babies slept in the back, their flight was uneventful they were good kids and no screaming. When we got there I nudged Iris and said.
"We are here, this is our home."
"No it's not it's the gatehouse Antonio, I can see the big house down the road."
I laughed as Tinker drove on, we are staying in the big house this time Rosa Adamo and Roberto had moved into the gatehouse it will be cramped with us and the boys here.
There was staff everywhere when we pulled up, workers had come from the winery to greet us but mainly they were there for the babies. I unloaded them first and placed their carry baskets on the vast front porch where at least ten ladies gathered around them.
I looked over at my eldest son he was sitting on Rosa's lap talking his head off to her, he remembers her smells and cuddles.
Sabine started reconnecting with her staff and they all hugged her and welcomed her back as she introduced Iris and Tony around. The boys were skylarking with some of the staff and Adamo, they wanted to go for a swim and were trying to entice some of the men to go with them.
People started disappearing after that they had to get back to work and I assured the ladies the babies will be made available to them when they are awake.
Iris and Angie were taken inside and shown to the bathrooms to freshen up. I haven't told them this is just a drop-off point for Sabine and Tony, the rest of us have our very own apartments at the manor house.
Coffee cake and sandwiches were made available out on the family table, with six or seven different pasta dishes just in case anyone was hungry.
"Where is the winery, Antonio?" Iris asked.
"It's over that way baby, you can see the red roof through the trees."
"I see, I am very excited to see it."
"Maybe you can give them some tips."
"Maybe I could." She grinned.
"I will get Tinker to take you there tomorrow, but maybe not, Gianni is aching to get back there also. I think he has a tasting job for you and Tony." She grinned, she already knows, why would I think Gianni wouldn't have told them.
"This place is amazing Antonio."
"Wait until you see your apartment at the manor house, it's beautiful."
"The manor house?"
"Yes this is the family home but there's not enough room with all of us and the babies so we are staying at the manor, it's that way." I pointed.
"I thought we were all staying here."
"No, there's plenty of golf carts around the place Iris, you can drive anywhere on the estate if you feel like it, the manor isn't that far away if you need to come here for anything."
"Is Tony staying here?"
"Yes, he and Sabine will stay here, when we have finished lunch we can grab a cart and I will show you around a bit then we can get settled in." The wine had been opened and I talked to Mrs. Russo the housekeeper for a bit while she cuddled Luca.
The boys were still trying to convince Adamo and Gianni to go in the water, but they have been conned before. I think the real fun will start at the manor.
Babies were once again placed in the small bus and I grabbed Iris and a golf buggy then took her for a quick tour just so she can familiarise herself with the area.
After a short informative ride, we pulled up outside the magnificent manor house. She stood there for some time while she took it all in and then we proceeded to go inside.
"Where have you been Antonio?" Gianni looked a little lost he had been sitting on the majestic staircase waiting for us.
"Just doing a very quick tour baby, where are the babies?"
"In the nursery, but I prefer them to be in with us."
"Come on big boy let's have a look-see." I took his hand and hauled him up onto his feet then headed for the lift.
"Iris there's plenty of staff around if you get lost just yell someone will hear you, the kitchens are particularly interesting."
"I might have a wander later on but for now I'm getting pretty tired."
"There will be a small kitchen in your apartment so you can make coffee and I assume some chilled wine would have been placed in it too." I grinned.
A housemaid met us on the top floor then showed Iris to her room, we pointed out ours and the boys and she was to knock anytime.
"Dinner at seven in the great room Miss Iris, the dress is casual."
"Where do I find that?"
"We will pick you up on the way." I grinned.
"Just like home Antonio."
We found the nursery which was also Angie's room, thankfully it was connected to ours, the boys have been allocated the room on the other side. Lukas ran towards us and grabbed my legs, then I picked him up and said.
"Are you going to have a nap with daddy and papa?" His head nodded in the affirmative.
"Why do we always get the room furthest away from you, this has to change."
"Well, why don't you move to Iris's room she can have the one next door."
"No, we will stay in here with you and the babies Antonio." Carlos has decided, no arguments they are in with us. I have no idea why they wined about it, their room was next door to ours and there are adjoining doorways, just another plan to get into bed with us.
I stripped off and went to have a quick rinse, then I put some shorts on and joined the men and a gorgeous baby on the bed. The baby couldn't wait for me he was asleep and three sets of eyes were on me.
"Don't even think about it, we have a big night coming up and I need to sleep."
"Sleep next to me, Antonio." Leon moaned.
I crawled in with my husband and son and he gently kissed me as his heavy eyes closed.
There were no crying noises when I woke, my husband and the boys with Iris were sitting on the balcony feeding the cherubs, Angie was having a coffee and taking in the vista when I walked out.
"Rapunzel, let down your hair." I laughed at her.
"How did you know I was thinking that?"
'Well it was either that or Romeo Romeo, but I figured you to be more of a Rapunzel." I kissed Gianni and the three babies and grabbed a coffee, no one was on the wine yet.
"How many are coming tonight Gianni?"
"The whole town and some gypsy you know they all want to see the babies."
"Iris, did you sleep okay?" I asked.
"Yes thank you, what an amazing place this is. The boys were just telling me its history."
"Yes, they did a wonderful job restoring it."
"What is the dress for tonight Antonio?"
"Wear something comfortable Iris, it's not formal."
"And Sabine?"
"She will probably be all sparkled up."
"Ok." I saw a sly smile and looked at Angie she was doing the same, of course, they are going to get dressed up.
I felt a slap on my knee, Lukas was up but he still looked pretty tired. I lifted him onto my lap and he snuggled in, maybe he won't be going tonight he might want to sleep.
Adamo and Roberto arrived with a big brown paper carry bag, I think they have been shopping.
"Is it all there?" Gianni asked.
"Yes, the ladies did a wonderful job."
"Good." He took the bag and walked it into the kid's room.
"Is that the boy's new outfits for tonight?"
"Antonio?"
"Well are they?" He blushed.
"Yes." Then he giggled.
I have to be one step ahead of these three otherwise they will try anything to get at me, my psychic ability is awesome, plus the brand name Bambino on the bag gave me a hint.
"Now a big bath and we get ready, Iris would you like a tour?"
"Yes please, Antonio." She smiled.
"Antonio?" Gianni looked at me again.
"The babies need a bath and I'm escorting Iris around the manor."
"I want to shower." I looked at Iris and before I could even wink at her, the attack started. I was stripped naked and three men held me under the shower. I couldn't stop laughing and rising to the situation, Adamo and Roberto had taken a seat in the bathroom to watch the action, they didn't partake though which was very disappointing.
When all the washing was over and done with we started to get dressed and the boys left to go to their room, Adamo and Roberto went to find the babies.
Lukas was a little more awake and he ran into the bedroom and jumped on the bed, he has discovered he can use it as a trampoline and a tumbling mat. As he jumped up and down I helped my man out with a nice wet one, our son couldn't see us we were very discreet.
"What do you want to wear Gianni?"
"Just jeans and t-shirt Antonio, nothing over the top I will let the ladies do that."
"We go peasant then."
"Antonio, can I help you with your underwear?"
"Of course husband." He took the big lump out of my underwear and proceeded to help it out.
My babies were adorable in their loose pants and open gypsy style shirts that tied at the waist, and my elder son matched perfectly, it looks like we are all going gypsy tonight except for the ladies. Iris looked wonderful in a lemon sequinned floor-length gown and Angie had an electric blue sequinned knee-length cocktail dress on, her hair was flowing tonight, she looked like a gypsy dancer, and very classy, she will give Sabine a run for her money.
The excitement was building as we caught the lift down to the ground floor, the boys were tormenting Adamo this time, thank god they left me alone. I had to carry Lukas because he insisted I do, and he held onto me as he looked around. I don't know how much he remembers but I think all the bright lights were entertaining him because he was slightly smiling. The babies were carried in their baskets and when the lift doors opened we were met by a crowd of women who whisked them away, they tried with Lukas but he wasn't interested he just buried his head in my shoulder.
"Antonio, they have taken them."
"Well, good luck with trying to get them back Gianni." I laughed, as if we could keep the ladies away from the babies, they had placed their carry cribs on a table and took turns to say welcome to them as they walked in a line past. Charms it was the charms that appeared on the table the gypsy women were leaving good luck charms in their baskets and beside them. Menowin was one of the first to greet us and he hugged me and Gianni, his wife has lost weight and she looked awesome as I hugged her, she tried to take Lukas but got a big fat
"Not" Off him.
"Maybe later when he wakes up fully." I smiled at her.
A gorgeous-looking lady in a lilac evening gown walked over and clapped her hands Lukas looked around and immediately his arms were out and Sabine had him, he looked back at me as he was whisked away. I will see you soon son, I smiled.
The whole town was here and once again the food was being set up on a long table, the wine flowed and Gianni finally came back to me. Angie was all eyes, there were some gorgeous men everywhere, some Angelo lookalikes some Gianni some Adamo. It was hard to choose just one, that was if I was on the market but Angie was all eyes. Iris was being very ladylike I think she is trying to outdo Sabine in the elegant stakes, but I didn't have the heart to tell her Angie has got this tonight.
Many many people came by to welcome us and all the time Gianni had his eye on the babies, he was almost going to grab them and take them back to the room at one stage.
"We need to talk when you have time," Menowin leaned in to tell me.
"Yes of course we will come to the camp, maybe not tomorrow but the day after Gianni is wanting to go to the winery tomorrow. Or you can come here at some stage."
"No, it's not urgent I wanted to tell you we have accessed the accounts and want to transfer the money back into Magdalena's account. Do you have her details?"
"No but I can text her, we have to catch up with her any way she's not with the gypsy?"
"No Padrino, she is living with her girlfriend in Roma they are starting a small business I heard. I don't think she has much confidence in the gypsy anymore."
"I don't blame her." I smiled but didn't elaborate.
The music started and we went to check the babies out, I wanted to keep the charms so I put them aside as I took one baby. Little Luca was all smiles when he saw me and Gianni had two in his arms, when Carlos tried to take one the argument started.
"Get your own."
"But where do we buy a baby Gianni?"
"I don't know, ask Menowin or start an orphanage."
"I will then and I will get plenty of babies more than you Gianni Cartasso more than Gino too."
He walked off to talk to Menowin. It didn't take long and I thought this would happen, Angie was in full flight being danced around the floor by a stunning gypsy man, he was bloody gorgeous his hair flowed almost to his waist but was tied back with a silver clip he almost looked like a pirate, and I knew that Angie was going to have a wonderful time here.
I walked back to the table and held Luca tightly because arms were produced for me to hand him over. I sat and talked to him as more women hovered in the background.
Lukas was now with Adamo as Sabine and Roberto danced and caught up, Tony was okay he was being entertained just watching the passing parade with Iris. I could smell food that was coming from the kitchens and all of a sudden I was starving. I tucked Luca into his carry basket and in no time at all, he was sitting on top of a table full of women, they will be taken upstairs soon for a feed and a nap, the party could get too loud for them. I haven't found out who was going to do that chore yet but I don't think it will be Angie, by the way she was slow dancing with her gypsy man, I don't think she will be coming home with us anytime soon.
Gianni asked me to dance but I wanted to eat so we went to see what was on offer, he made up a plate for us both as Sabine moved in with Lukas to do some dinner for him. He also has some charms pinned to his little outfit, I will place them in his bed tonight so he will get a good night's sleep.
"Who is looking after the babies tonight Sabine?"
"They have two local nurses who will work under Rosa's supervision, I think Angie will be having a late-night lucky girl." She smiled and Angie was still dancing with her gorgeous pirate. We ate and I saw iris had cornered Tinker they were talking about wines and the next day to my surprise he told me he had heard of her, apparently she is talked about a lot in the wine magazines.
I can't tell you what happened for the rest of the night because after I ate I had an overwhelming sense of tiredness, Gianni got me up for a dance and I gave him a few turns on the dancefloor.
"Do you mind if I slip out and go to bed baby?"
"You look like you could sleep for a week." He replied.
"Jet lag baby, I need to get to bed I'm sorry this will spoil your night."
"No, it won't Antonio, because I am coming with you."
"The babies?"
"I will talk to Rosa she will get them upstairs shortly they are sleepy anyway."
"Don't forget their charm's especially Lukas's he needs to have a good sleep."
"I won't, can you wait for me?" He kissed me again.
"Yes, I will wait outside the lift."
I waited on a seat outside the lift and fell fast asleep.
Gianni was waking me up he had Iris with him she was all of a sudden tired also. The three of us went to our apartments and Gianni assured me that Sabine and the boys had the babies and they will be put to bed soon.
I stripped down and crawled into the big bed, Gianni was quick to pull me in and I kissed him goodnight, and I did feel guilty for leaving the party so soon.
Four in the bed this morning as I woke up I moved around and snuggled into my husband, I felt a lot brighter and refreshed.
"You were being missed last night Antonio." Leon said.
"I am sorry but I had to come to bed otherwise I would have fallen asleep at the table, maybe next time they should leave the welcome party for a few days."
"Doesn't matter, everyone had a wonderful time and the town folk will have a big party in the square soon, you can attend that one while you are awake."
"Okay." I smiled to myself, I much rather their parties anyway.
"What have you got on for today?"
"Nothing much we might follow you around."
"I see, then I had better ask my husband then." I looked over at him.
"I need to go to the winery Antonio, my recipes are burning in my head and I need to do a tasting, I have four wines ready," Gianni said.
"Good morning baby." He kissed me.
"I'm starving," Carlos whined.
"Ring the kitchen then, I could do with a good feed myself," I replied I was hungry again.
In all his glory he jumped out of bed, his buns were bloody awesome and I backed up to Gianni letting him feel what he's missing out on. He groaned as Carlos talked on the phone to the cooks in the kitchen. It won't take long to arrive so I threw the blanket off and headed for the bathroom.
The knock on the door saw three ladies roll in trollies laden with food, Iris was behind them and I went to see how the babies were. Lukas was up and ready to go the other three were still sleeping, Angie was nowhere to be seen but the nurses said they slept through the night. I took Lukas back into our room and he was kissed and cuddled by everyone as I got him some scrambled eggs.
There was a lot of food and Iris had a smile on her face that won't leave anytime soon.
"Did you sleep well, Iris?"
"Oh god yes, I can't think when I last had such a good rest this place is so good for me Antonio."
"Same here the stress leaves at the front door for some reason."
"It's because there are people here to help, no need for cooking or cleaning Iris everything is laid on," Gianni said.
"What time are we going to the winery Gianni?" She was eager to go and have a good look.
"As soon as the babies wake Iris and are changed and fed, we must take them with us."
"Will you be okay driving a golf cart my lady?" I got a sour look.
"We are driving Iris Antonio, no need to be very smart."
"Oh, sorry Iris." She giggled.
My babies arrived just as I had eaten, so I was the first to jump up and wish them good morning with a cuddle and kiss. They grizzled a little until Gianni soothed them, then they were hungry. The two nurses fed a couple and I was pushed aside by Carlos who grabbed little Antonio.
"He wants his favorite uncle." He smirked at Leon.
I looked over at Lukas, no I'm not going to get any cuddles off him he has discovered if he pushes a button a wall panel opens and the TV appears, so he's spread out on the floor, I suppose this is where his Italian language kicks in because the cartoons were all dubbed in the local dialect.
Angie arrived still in the same dinner dress but her hair was a little disheveled.
"Sorry I got caught up." She blushed.
"No problem kiddo, that's what holidays are for, the kids slept well and have been fed," I said then added.
"How was your first gypsy experience?" I winked.
"We slept in a boat, he took me around the lake it's magnificent at night time."
Never would I begrudge Angie a romantic holiday she's such a good person and friend.
"So did you give it up?" I asked.
"I need to shower don't go to the winery without me." She turned on her heels and left to go change, I didn't get my answer.
We all showered and dressed, Sabine rang to try and get us to call into the main house but Gianni was eager to get to work and I was eager to go and watch him. We bundled the kids up, it's going to be a hot day so they would be in their shorts and singlets. I might do a tour and then take the ladies to Sabine's for lunch. The carts were out the front when we arrived and Gianni, Carlos, and I carried the babies in scarves around our necks, we took their carrycots just in case they wanted to nap. Lukas was with Leon talking his head off about some cartoon he had been watching.
"I'm his favorite uncle." He smirked at Carlos.
Four carts were taken and we gave the girls a small tour past the lake as we headed for the winery. Tinker was out the front supervising deliveries of some grapes so Gianni stopped to give him a hand, Adamo was there to greet us, he will be Angie and Iris's tour guide for the morning.
It didn't take long as we walked into the big building, babies were snaffled and taken to the tea room so the ladies can have a good look at them, but not Lukas he hadn't finished telling Leon all his news.
"Not!" I heard as one lady tried to take him.
I was at a bit of a loss, no Gianni no kids, so I tagged along and watched Adamo's buns as he took the tour around. Tony arrived with Sabine she didn't look too happy as she almost dragged Lukas off Leon, then she also went to the staff room to supervise.
Tony had his camera out and was taking photos of just about everything we were shown and Iris was making notes, I guess a write-up about the distillery is coming our way, or a talkback radio night. I introduced her to old Giuseppe who also followed us around. Gianni caught up and he and Adamo went to look at the new samples that he had made up. Iris and Tony were seated at the tasting table and they placed four numbered bottles of wine in front of them. Eventually, I got a taste but that was after Iris did her job.
In the meantime Angie had disappeared, I was told her new man worked in the winery as a dispatch clerk, so I guess she's been whisked off by him again.
Iris and Tony were still making notes then she looked at a nervous Gianni I held his hand tight when they compared them. They both smiled.
"Gianni I am lost for words you are a remarkable winemaker you have to put number three aside and target the fine wine collectors because the general public won't be able to afford it. The other three I have no words except they are just as good as your finest and much better than the Cartasso top shelf. If I was you I would add this one, number two to your top shelf and sell these two, numbers one and four to the Cartasso label, which will almost bring it up to your standards." She smiled, Gianni puffed up.
"So you get a really expensive wine and a top shelf to stand next to your best, Cartasso gets two more wines that will outshine any wine they have in their range at the moment," Tony added.
"Why can't he keep them?" I was curious.
"Simple business practice Antonio, if he keeps them he will, not might, he will put the Cartasso winery further down the scale and we don't want that to happen, in truth he's helping the opposition, and by doing that he's giving himself some competition. And we don't want Sabine on our backs, because if the winery drops a notch so does Giannis shares and hers. Gianni, you are not only working for your brand you are also working for the Cartasso." She winked. I hadn't even thought of that, yes Gianni owns both in reality he should be helping both brands along.
I looked at him he was nearly bursting with pride and he pulled me aside and kissed me gently.
"Now I can give something back."
"You're not going to charge them?"
"No, these are a gift to Mama and Papa and uncle Federico."
"Good man, I think there's too many anyway, and I have said it before your cheapest plonk is the best."
"Antonio?"
"For me baby, just for me."
"Oh, okay." He smiled.
"Where did Angie go?" I asked him.
"She has ducked into town with Francisco, he had something to show her." I giggled, I bet he has.
"Tinker what do you think you're the wine expert?" I asked.
"I think she's getting some off my cousin." He laughed so hard I slapped him.
"No about the wine dufas."
"What is dufas Antonio, what is this name?"
"It means your being silly."
"Oh."
"I think Gianni is exactly what I always thought him to be, a great winemaker, he was mediocre before he met you but he's improved immensely since then, I think he tries very hard to impress someone." He winked at me. I don't need impressing, I already know what I have got and I am very happy with my tastings.
I went to the tea room to try and find some children, Sabine was in her element there were babies everywhere, the ladies are allowed to bring their babes in and small children, there was a crèche built for them and two supervisors, that way they can keep up the production lines, my three were amongst them but Lukas was still with Leon but he had nodded off for a ten-minute nap.
Carlos and Leon had found the wine and glasses and were sitting at a table watching and drinking, I grabbed a glass and filled it. Gianni had followed but he ended up on the shag pile rug playing with any baby or kid that was interested. Iris followed and Sabine talked Italian to the two little ones she had in her arms.
"Have you decided what you're doing Gianni?" Iris asked.
"I'm going to do what you said, I will keep two and pass on the other two."
"Were they any good Tony?" Sabine was asking.
"More than good Sabine, he's brilliant and he got two top-shelf ones for himself and the other two...." He stopped talking.
"I'm going to give them to the Cartasso." Gianni smiled. Sabine looked at me.
"Don't look at me dear mother in law, it's Gianni's choice."
"Iris please tell me."
"Well granddaughter, it appears he is top-heavy with excellent wines and he doesn't want to compete with his own company so Cartasso will get two more top-shelf wines, both are better than your grandfather's one Sabine. It makes sense he does it that way then the two brands are on an even keel, except for the big collector one that is."
"Ten million." Sabine went directly into negotiations, Gianni laughed.
"Free mama."
"No, we have to pay."
"Free mama, I own Cartasso also and it's been a few years since our range has changed so it's free, I benefit anyway."
"Thank you son, and Iris and Tony."
"Our pleasure." Tony kissed her.
"No the pleasure is all mine, Tony." She winked.
"Okay is everyone finished?" She handed the babies back and stood up.
"Yes for today that is it," Gianni replied.
"Okay, we go and eat at the house." She pulled her phone out and messaged her housekeeper.
Before we left Tinker handed Gianni a book of labels, he will pick two for his new wines.
We loaded up the babies and headed for the house where the table was covered in food and wine. Surprisingly Angie was there she had been dropped off by her new beau.
I got the kids settled and sat with her.
"So, when do I lose my housekeeper?" She stared at me for a second then said.
"Do you believe in love at first sight Antonio?"
"Of course I do, I fell in love with Gianni over a photo of him, and when I saw the real thing I was an absolute goner." She looked away wistfully but didn't go on, she eventually sighed and took little Gianni off me for a cuddle. She is going to miss the babies so much but I doubt whether she will return to Australia with us. I felt sad but happy she has found someone, and whatever the journey short or long Francisco takes her on, I hope she will find happiness.
I ate something and had another vino, the boys were urging me to go for a swim and Gianni was flexing his muscles as an added incentive. He had been flicking through the book of labels but put it aside, he will want my opinion for sure. Iris was all eyes when the boys dropped their shorts and ran to the pool, Adamo did the same but he had bathers on, then the screams started as the boys caught up with him. I changed into a nice pair of black swimmers and with my usual flair dived in the deep end I was closely followed by Gianni then Angie came in for a dip.
We coaxed Iris to lose her outer garments and grab something from the change shed and she was helped into the pool by Carlos. Sabine babysat and I did have a nasty thought but lost it when Tony dropped his clothes and joined us. Babies were taken inside they were napping anyway, we didn't want the noise to wake them. Lukas of course was ready to go in with his nonna. I was fondled by Leon then Gianni shooed him away because he wanted a go.
We kissed and groped for ages I was watching Angie she was sitting on the stairs looking into space.
"He's married." I heard Gianni say.
"No."
"Tinker told me he was married two years ago but now separated."
"Please don't tell me he is using her?"
"He does not think so, but he still lives with his wife, but nothing is going on." My excitement left and I felt so sorry for my friend who has fallen in love. I have to say something but what can I do, maybe shut up for now and let it run its course, maybe pick up the pieces later, bloody gypsies are a pain in the neck sometimes.
It was sometime before Francisco arrived with Tinker I had become uninterested in swimming and was sunbaking making sure Gianni was getting an eyeful of my nylon-covered ass.
He dropped his shorts and had a pair of black underpants on then in all his magnificence he dived in to go and talk to his new lover.
Tinker sat with me and Gianni and the boys watched like bloodhounds.
"It's a shame he's married Tinker, she has fallen for him big time. I guess he will tell her but I think the damage is already done."
"Who Antonio?"
"Francisco, Gianni was telling me he's married and still living with his wife." He stared at me and started laughing.
"Not my cousin Antonio, he's very much single and eager to get to know Angelina some more." I looked at the pool again and the three boys were still leaning on the lip watching me. I suddenly sat up and heard Leon scream.
"He's coming run for it!" Then I heard a lot of laughter.
I went to get up to go and give my husband a mouth full of expletives but as they swam to the other side of the pool he got a mouth full of water and started coughing, I sang out.
"Serves yourself right, lying stirring assholes, sorry Iris." I poured Tinker and myself a wine and we clinked glasses while the boys slapped Gianni on the back, hard.
