Excerpt:
“Mr.
Gesatti, are you okay?” I asked.
“Maura…”
he whispered.
At the
sound of her name, all the brothers froze and looked at their father.
“Che
cosa, papa?” said Donato.
When they
turned around, on the other side of the glass door of the restaurant was a
woman in a sleeveless black dress. She was in her sixties, and despite her age,
I could tell that she had been beautiful when she was young—she still was. I
remembered the photo of her that I found in Donato’s nightstand. The years had
passed, but still her eyes were lost, empty. Her hair was still black and long
but with dashes of gray.
She just
stood there, and Lorenzo was frozen in place. I could hear his heartbeat
quicken when he let out a simple sigh…
Donato
marched slowly to the door. I did not want to even breathe.
“What the
fuck are you doing here?” he demanded, his eyes suspicious.
“Let me
in,” she responded, completely ignoring Donato’s attitude. She stepped
gracefully around him and walked toward us, studying our faces calmly.
“Lorenzo,”
she said, and nodded her head slightly. Don Lorenzo stood there like a lifeless
statue. “Giovanni, Vincenzio, and you,” she said turning toward me, “you must
be Tatiana.” The silence was deafening. Gio and Vin’s eyes were full of
questions while they stared at her in shock. An unknown ghost has just walked
in the restaurant and they looked like they wanted to say so much but simply
couldn’t.
I was
just worried about how D was going to handle all of this. His blue eyes were
full of defiance instead of despair. I could hardly recognize my sweet Donato.
He stood there, protecting his brothers once again, as he has all his life.
“Mom?”
Vinny managed to say.
“Do not
call her that!” D blurted out. “Why are you here?” He went up to his mother
defiantly, like a lion protecting his young.
“I wanted
to meet you all, and…” she trailed off in a low voice.
“No. Tell
them why you are here! Damn it!” D shouted. The whole restaurant trembled at
his tone.
