Madeline Love
"I'm sorry... Italy for Christmas?" My mother sunk down into the couch looking like she needed a cigarette right now "we can't afford to do that, his family-"
"His mother wants us all to come" I urged "they'd take care of the flights"
"All?"
"Well Aunt Liza and Uncle Ben to, along with Jenn and Gwenyth would get all the details done you just have to say-"
"What about your father?" The one question I didn't want to answer
"Dad never celebrates Christmas, he sneaks out mid feast, goes to a party and fucks a random slut mom" she knew the truth, I didn't want my dad coming to Italy, to embarrass us
She was silent from my last comment, but it was the reality "Your coming to me now about this, Christmas is in three days. Is it safe for you to fly I mean remember disney" her eyes swirled with worry, it was traumatic for her
"I can simply tell Carina we cannot-"
"Oh hell no" he stepped into the kitchen, uncle Ben placing his backpack against the doorway
"Yes I was eavesdropping and we are going to Italy for Christmas, are you fucking crazy Beth!"
"Your not being rational Ben" she stated
"Do they even attended church, do they have a Catholic Church there? Are you just planning to blow off the whole-"
"Of course mom" she looked indecisive
Just like she did with each and every treatment plan for me "mom your life has been taking care of me and stressing out, let's escape for holiday. Leave Boston behind and go to Italy, let me do this for you"
She was silent for a moment "do they have Christmas cookies and decorations?"
"We'd be staying at Ace's and I promise he'd let you do all our traditions mom" she sighed
"And his family wants us there? We aren't pulling an Uncle Eddie?"
"Yes mom, they requested us"
"And they aren't serial killers?" Ben chimed in
"I make no promises" I shrugged
"Let me atleast buy your flight and I'll have to arrange Clara to watch the florist while we are gone" I squealed taking her in for a hug
"Thank you, thank you!" Her hug tightened around me "and you don't have to purchase any flights" her finger when back and forth in my face
"I must, atleast let me purchase our flights" I shook my head taking a seat across from her as she seemed to be set on this
"We aren't taking a commercial flight, Ace has his own jet so there is no need" she sucked in her bottom lip looking stunned
"Well I must offer his something"
"Is his family like crazy rich Asians, but crazy rich Italians. I mean are they fiesty or money hungry?" Ben questioned and I shook my head dismissing his questions
