Chapter

Milan, Italy

Springtime has arrived in Milan, and the city couldn't be more charming! The weather is perfect for leisurely strolls through picturesque piazzas and lively streets. a second home to Karina Rossi for the past ten years.

Karina is a stunning blend of her family's heritage. With her father, Simoni Rossi, hailing from the sun-soaked hills of Tuscany, and her mother, Angelica King, representing the beauty of Asia, it’s no wonder she's got the looks to turn heads. She sports an oval face adorned with thick eyebrows and big, beautiful eyes framed by long lashes. Her nose is perfectly pointed, and who could forget that fabulous hourglass figure? Her straight brown hair, soft pouty lips, and statuesque legs-thanks to her mom. complete the package.

Karina’s older brother, Andrew, equally handsome and charming, is married with two adorable kids and manages the family vineyard and olive oil business in Tuscany. Picture him as the perfect blend of gentle giant and naughty boy, always up for a little mischief.

As the baby of the family, Karina enjoys the city life. Meanwhile, her mother Angelica, with her sweet round eyes and cute nose, grew up in the countryside, where her family owned a farm. They considered education essential. boys and girls alike were expected to hit the books! So, Angelica packed her bags for Italy and enrolled in a prestigious agriculture program in Florence, where she met her dashing italian husband, Simoni.

Simoni, the tall and warmhearted gentleman from Tuscany, belonged to an upper-crust family that owned sprawling vineyards and olive groves. After they said “I do,” Simoni and Angelica traded the Tuscan sun for life in Asia, where they bought farms and ranches. The family business thrived, and before long, they had Karina and Andrew, two beautiful kids with a delightful blend of their parents’ best traits.

Karina thrives on the energy of Milan. this elegant city buzzing with life and excitement! She’s the quintessential party girl, always the life of the event and loved by many. Shopping, dining, traveling, and curating posts for her Instagram and Facebook keep her on her toes as she hops from one trendy restaurant or spa to another.

While she’s a magnet for attention from men, Karina doesn’t just date for fun. Unlike her girlfriends, who change boyfriends like they change outfits, she knew what she wanted: a mature connection. “I don’t know why, but I’m drawn to older men- two to five years older is just right!” she laughs whenever her friends tease her.

When she met the charming Leonardo Song, a smooth three years her senior, she was instantly intrigued. But their romance wasn’t smooth sailing. After a year together, Leo had to return to his home country in Asia to help with his family's business, leaving Milan behind. Despite the long-distance challenge, they kept their love alive, managing visits three times a year and keeping their chats flowing.

Two years of their long-distance relationship went by, and they remained faithful, each busy in their respective worlds. Karina managing her wine and olive oil export business and Leo diving into family responsibilities.

One Year Ago

“Baby, I know this hurts, but it hurts me too.” Leo held her closely, gently wiping away her tears. Karina felt utterly weak, unable to find her voice, just wanting to cry her heart out.

Only three hours earlier, she had been elated, bursting with joy when she saw Leo waiting for her in her living room. With a surprised scream, she dashed into his arms, thinking, “Is there anything better than being in the arms of the one you love?”

After what felt like an eternity of hugging, Leo’s silence wrapped around them like a heavy blanket. He held her tight, but there was something off. the glimmer in his eyes was missing.

“What’s wrong, baby? You missed me so much? You look so mushy!” she teased, unable to resist leaning in for a kiss. A quick peck turned into something electric as Leo pulled her closer, their lips dancing together.

“Wow, Leo! You’re on FIRE!” Karina thought as she got lost in the moment.

When he finally pulled back, he chuckled, “I missed you, Karina. Sorry, I got carried away. I must have lost my mind when I saw you again.”

Even with the underlying tension, Karina felt warm and giddy inside.

“Why didn’t you tell me you were coming? You do know my birthday is in two days, right?” she playfully nudged him as she pulled him into the living room.

“Thank you, babe! This is the best early birthday present ever!” Her eyes sparkled with excitement.

Caught in the magic of her captivating smile, the kind that could melt any heart. Leo held her hand, kissing it as if she were a princess. “You’re getting more beautiful each year, baby. I’m a lucky man to love you and know someone as incredible as you.”

Karina’s cheeks flushed with warmth, but curiosity danced in her mind. “Why are you so extra sweet today?” she asked, her heart fluttering.

“Is being apart for five months really that hard for you?” she teased, feeling a surge of happiness at his affection.

“Did you eat yet? Are you hungry? I didn’t have time to cook or hit the supermarket, so if you're starving, let’s eat out! Or I can call for pizza delivery. What do you think?” Her words tumbled out in a breathless rush.

Leo chuckled, a bright smile on his face. “My lovely Karina!” He looked at her with such fondness. “Let’s eat out! I miss the Italian weather. I’m craving risotto, osso buco, a cappuccino, and gelato!” He skipped to the door, excitement radiating off him.
