VINCENZO P.O.V

“Hello, mum!” I know I would be careful... when I arrive in Italy I will contact you” My mom always treats me like a baby, but I am 26... I don’t know if I should say I am excited to go to Italy, the last time I was there was when I was ten and the city has changed. I go through the news streaming today...

The news speaker speaks with so much pain. “...here life in Italy. Tv.station, there was a plane crash reported this morning at pons Fabricius...The bride-to-be of the Prince of Israel, Prince Isa Majed, and her family were found dead in the plane...” This case is so tragic, that I muted the Tv, not wanting the sad news to spoil my day. I would start my day first day at the hospital, in Italy. I own the best hospitals in the world, since my father died, I chose to bury myself in my work and am devoted to treating every one of my patients in positivity.

I finally arrived in Italy, I call my driver to take me straight to the hospital. I am so excited, it’s my first time seeing it in reality...

Driving down the streets of Italy, my face was up on all billboards.

“THE ARRIVAL OF THE BEST SURGEON IN THE WORLD!” I read out loud with a laugh. The car finally comes to a halt. stepping into the building, my phone starts to beep. Oh my goodness, I promised to call her as soon as I got here. Oh shit!

“Vincenzo, you said you will call me as soon as you set foot in Italy, but you waited for me to call” Mom shouted, oh god, I regret not calling her, now I am punished to listen to her warnings and scolding.

“Mom! I am sorry, it won’t happen again” I am not a mother’s boy, but at this point, I just need to let her go so she won’t start an argument we can’t finish.

“Vince, please, I would love to have you come for dinner, next week”

“Ok mum! I will come after my working hours.” I walk down the hallway, putting up a smile as each person passed by.

“No problem dear, hope your flight was good?”

“Yes, Mum! It was fantastic.” I said impatiently, waiting for the call to end.

“Ok! let me end the call so you can rest. Bye!” I didn’t respond, ending the call before I laughed. She is up to something, she isn’t just going to invite me for dinner, something is up. Walking past the front desk, there was a noise coming from the entrance, the were several bodies carried, covered in blood but only one caught my eyes, a young lady, her face covered with bruises and deep cuts, she was dressed in a white dress, it looks so much like a wedding dress. It was soaked and covered with blood stains... Is this the bride to the Prince?

“Doctor De Luca!“My name was called by one of the doctors...

I was so worried... Is this day ever going to get any better without surprises? I rushed into the surgery room.
