I didn't think there would ever be a day I would be relieved to see Donna Carmela walk in with all her charisma. I guess this was the day. I had no idea she was coming. I wondered why she did not join us on the jet when we came yesterday.
I looked up at Jace.
If he was surprised to see her, he did not show it.
I noticed the respect Jace's uncles and cousin's had for her as the matriarch of the family.
Jace's aunty, Giuletta did not seem happy to see her. In fact I was beginning to believe she did not like any female that wasn't her or her equally mean daughter.
"Hello to you too Giuletta." Donna Carmela said sarcastically as she sat down.
"So nice of you to grace us with your presence." Giuletta replied in the same tone.
My eyes darted between them. There was an unspoken tension that could be cut with a knife between them.
I sat there and wondered why they were like that but there was no one I could ask.
"I see you're still dressing like you have something to prove."
