My mom creaked open my door. It was around 9am and said,

"Luna, we're going to leave in an hour to go get breakfast then on the gondola. Get up and get ready please"
"Okay" I said softly and rolled out of bed.

(an: if you don't know what a gondola is it's basically like a boat that is very common in italy. it's like a canoe that you can ride around these canals that are all over cities in Italy, if you are italian or from Italy i'm so sorry if i sucked at explaining that please don't come for me🤍🥺)

a gondola:

My mom shut my door

My mom shut my door. Mattia was still in bed, asleep. I sighed knowing we would have to either resolve a fight or he would drag the fight on. I washed my face, brushed my teeth, did the rest of my skin care routine, put on deodorant and perfume. I put on this outfit:

Then I also put on mascara, eyebrow gel and highlighter

Then I also put on mascara, eyebrow gel and highlighter. I brushed my hair then I walked out of the bathroom. I looked at Mattia, he was still sleeping. Why do him and I always fight on vacation? I swear this shit is cursed for us. I grabbed my phone then I gently kissed Mattia's head,

"I love you" I whispered.

I walked out of my room and shut the door quietly. My mom and Gianna were waiting for me.

"We're going to go to a cute little cafe, our gondola ride is at 11am" My mom said.
"Okay!" I said.

My mom, my sister and I all walked a few blocks to the cafe. We all sat outside. My mom ordered black coffee and Gianna and I ordered cappuccinos.
All of us ordered an assortment of biscottis and cornettis (an: they ate italian croissants). We all ate then Gianna said,

"I'm trying to find myself a hot Italian man"

My mom and I laughed then Gianna said,

"No I'm serious, I'm about to download tinder"
"Gianna! That app is not good for serious relationships" My mom said.
"Who said it was serious" Gianna said.

I burst out into laughter and Gianna said,

"I'm kidding!!!" Gianna said.

We all finished eating, we paid then we followed my mom to the canals to find our gondola. My mom found our gondola. A guy greeted us, he spoke English very well, thankfully in my case. I nudged Gianna because he looked about her age and was pretty attractive, in her case obviously I have a fine italian boy already, Mattia of course. She smirked then we all got into the gondola.
