I'm jolted awake by the loud slam of a door downstairs, and the sound of some yelling and squealing coming from downstairs.
My eyes are groggy and cheeks dry from what I assumed were tears.
Fuck, I'd really cried myself to sleep-
How long have I been asleep?
I groggily grab my phone from the nightstand and see several messages from Giovanni, the time currently reading 4:02pm.
Fucking hell I'd been asleep for hours-
Car's laugh rings out from downstairs and I sigh, burying my face in my pillow as I think of my brothers.
Romeo, who is currently serving an unjust sentence in prison, Massimo, who is recovering from a fucking overdose, and Giovanni, doing everything he can to treat Mass.
And of course fucking Angelo, who has a case of being the biggest asshole on the planet. But the difference was I had no sympathy for him. None at all.
I lift my head out of my pillow to read the texts Gio had sent me over the course of 16 hours.
Mediocre sibling (Car is no.1 obvs💅):
Send me the recording when u can bro.
Mediocre sibling (Car is no.1 obvs💅):
Made it to the hospital.
Mediocre sibling (Car is no.1 obvs💅):
Mass is resting, on a drip and currently comatose.
Mediocre sibling (Car is no.1 obvs💅):
Police are talking with Angelo rn.
Mediocre sibling (Car is no.1 obvs💅):
Just spoke with the police, I need that recording.
Mediocre sibling (Car is no.1 obvs💅):
U okay?
Mediocre sibling (Car is no.1 obvs💅):
Don't let ur grandad ass be falling asleep on me now man
Mediocre sibling (Car is no.1 obvs💅):
Call me when you can.
I can't help but crack a small smile at the contact name, which Car had obviously put in, somehow having gotten a hold of my phone all those months ago.
I immediately called Gio's number, feeling bad at my long sleep but to be honest, I was exhausted.
Physically and mentally.
He picks up on the third ring, "Fuck, I was worried for a minute there fratello, you good?" Gio asks, voice sounding tired.
