GABRIELLA'S POV:

****Los Angeles, California****

"I can't believe we're back to this bored to death place." I groaned in annoyance as we got down from the plane.

"There's always next time." He smiled at me.

After almost a week in the beautiful country of Italy, we were back to the US on Sunday. We spent three days in the Lombardy region of the country and three days in the Metropolitan City of Rome. Those three days in Rome were as amazing as the other three days in Northern Italy. I think we toured the two cities.

Italy was glorious and is a place filled with blessings. I learnt a lot of things, from frying an egg, to cooking an excellent Italian dish, throwing a birthday party, getting schooled by fifth graders on a healthy relationship and how to avoid fights and hectic arguments, taking care of a fifth week old Pomeranian puppy, learning how to ride on a motorcycle, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera!

"She is so cute! What's her name?" Mom ask as he played with the puppy. We were currently in my house.

"Diamond."

"Italy."

Dré and I said at the same time and mom and Adela looked weirdly at us.

We looked at each other then back at them with a funny grin.

"Diamond Italy." We spoke simultaneously.

"Her name is Diamond Italy." My little sister said as though she didn't hear us well.

"I like it. It's....unique." Mom said. "I hope you guys know the responsibility of taking care of a puppy."

"Yeah. We do." André answered.

I fully don't. But I know I have to go shopping today for Italy. I have to buy whatever a Pomeranian puppy needs. We wanted to buy in Rome but the load that will be is huge so....in Rome we just bought little quantity for her.

André's phone began to ring. He quickly answered it.

"No...no....no....no...no..." He had this bored expression on his face. "No dude, no......okay yes.." He smiled. "....really...uhhh..." He looked at me as he thought of something. ".....can't we do it another time?......seriously? That's amazing...... Fine I'm coming..... This better not be stupid or I'll punch the three of you.....OK bye." He rolled his eyes and caught the call. "Sorry but I have to go." He said.

"To where?" I asked.

"Wes called me."

"Why? is something wrong?"

"You won't really understand. It's complicated. By the way, here's my card for the shopping." He placed it in my hand but I gave it back to him.

"No way Mr. Lombardi. I'll use mine."

"No, mine. I don't want you to spend with your money." He gave me back.

"And I want to spend with my own money. Okay?"

We just kept on bickering and bickering until Italy barked at us making the both of us look at her.

"You know she's right." I said as though I understood what she meant in the barking.

"You'll use both." He smiled.

"Perfecto." I grinned.

"You guys are really something else." Mom shook her head at us.

"What exactly do they buy when going on dog shopping?" I said as I walked with the grocery strolling while Italy was in it. And it seemed she was enjoying every bit of it.
