"Run! Ru-" suddenly a gunshot goes right through Gianna's chest and she falls to the ground to the sound of gunshots, yells, and cries.
"No!" Her husband runs for Gianna in tears, "No! Gianna no!"
Gianna gasping for air she tries with all her force to say one last sentence, "It's...okay," she swallows, "I'll be fine, io tiamo-"she forces a weak smile and slowly closes her eyes and her head falls into her husband's arm.
"Gianna no!" he shouts in tears and presses her against his chest, "Io tiamo," he sobs for a moment then he picks her body up and carries it back to base.
"Help! She needs help!" he yells, "Help please..." he yelled as soldiers came rushing for help.
-71 years later-
"Ciao?"
"Hey Gianna?"
"Chi e?"
"Yeah okay, English please it's Alex."
"Oh, hey Alex, what do you need?"
"Nothing I was just wondering if you wanted to do something since you're off work."
"Where do you want to go?"
"I don't know...Maybe we can go to that Italian restaurant?"
"Why? Because I'm Italian?"
"No! I was just saying."
"Okay then make a reservation at five pm, I'm going to get ready."
"Okay bye!"
Gianna sits on her bed thinking for minute
She then goes to the kitchen and grabs a knife puts it against her skin but hesitates
"No I shouldn't do this." she says to herself
She puts the knife away but stops, she looks at the knife one more time
Maybe it will work
She closes her eyes and begins to count, "One...two...three!" She slices her arm, but nothing, no mark, no blood, nothing. Gianna sighs and a tear begins to fall down her cheek, she stands in the kitchen looking at her arm for a moment.
She looks up and asks, "When? When?"
She stares at her arm one last time and goes back to her room and get's ready.
-Arrives at restaurant-
"There's my favorite old Italian!" Alex said with a smile as Gianna came walking in.
Gianna rolls her eyes, sits down and grabs a menu.
"Did you order already?" she asks.
"No just a drink, I was waiting for you. Hey guess what?"
She looks up at Alex, "What's wrong?"
"No nothing is wrong it's actually a good thing."
"Well what is it?"
"What's what? Oh!" Gianna rolled her eyes, "I have great news, I'm getting married!"
Gianna's jaw dropped, "Wo- Wow I'm so proud of you! It seems that it was just yesterday you were a five year old little monster, but now," she pauses, "wow you're twenty six."
"I know," Alex looks down and smiles
"I can't believe he proposed, you've waited so long!"
"Yeah. You know I just feel so happy when I'm with him, like I feel that when I'm down he'll be there to make me feel better." Alex smiles
"Well that's good I'm glad you have someone to love and who loves you back ."
"Thanks Gianna."
"I just wish I could have had someone to share my life with too."
"Don't worry there is a lot of elderlies out there you just have to look," she says looking around, "ooh like that one!" she points to an old man sitting across the room.
"Alex that's not funny!" Gianna says in angry expression.
"Calm down, I'm just kidding with you!" she says trying to hold back a laugh
Gianna rolls her eyes
"We still don't know when or where the wedding is going to be, we're still planning. I want to do it at a country club, but he says that we should just do something small and simple."
"Oh that's nice; you know when I got married my husband did the same."
"Actually now that I think about it what happened to your husband?"
"I don't know I can't remember." A few moments passed.
"When is our waitress coming? Oh never mind she's coming."
"Are you guys ready to order? Or do you need another minute?"
"No we're ready."
"Okay," the waitress said and looks at Alex.
"I'm going to have the Pasta E Fiogli,"
The waitress writes down the order, "Okay. And what about you mam?"
"I would like the same as her and for drink I would like water."
She finishes writing down the order, "Alright, could I have your menus please?" Alex and Gianna pass her their menus and the waitress leaves.
"You've met my husband right?"
"I don't know I can't remember, I don't think I did."
"Well then I guess we're going to have to plan a dinner."
Gianna and Alex smiled.
"Hey," Alex says, "Why didn't you ever teach me Italian?"
"I don't know." Gianna shrugs.
"Eh, its okay I already know Spanish."
"Spanish? Really?" Gianna said sarcastically.
"Okay fine I know a little."
"Sure,"
"I do, see look...uh... uno-"
"Okay Spanish speaker I already know you don't." Gianna chuckles.
"How come you cant remember about your husband?"
"I don't know and I really don't want to talk about this right now."
"Oh, I'm sorry I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable."
"Even though you do it every day."
-Next Day-
"Twenty-six year old male, has two broken ribs, is bleeding from his appendix, has a broken arm and leg and is currently unconscious. Needs medical attention now!" Yell the paramedics as they came rushing in with an injured man.
"Oh my God what happened?"
"I don't know but it must have been bad," said Gianna's co-worker
"Pretty bad." she mumbled to herself.
Then Gianna's phone starts to ring
"Alex I'm in the middle of work!"
"Sorry I just needed to ask you a question."
"Well your question is going to have to wait."
"What time is your break?"
"Really Alex? My break was two hours ago,"
"Oh,"
"I'll see you later I have to deal with patients."
Gianna hangs up the phone and thinks about what just happened and smirks.
"Gianna they need you in room 103 here are the documents,"
"Yes mam."
She heads to the room while reading the documents and sees a young girl
Gianna begins to screw on the needle to the syringe and puts the medicine in
"Hello." says Gianna
"Are you my doctor?" says the little girl confused.
"No," Gianna smiles, "I'm just your nurse."
"What's a nurse?"
"A nurse is a person that takes care of the sick or injured people."
"Oh,"
"So your name is Jessica?"
She nods
"And you are 5 years old correct?"
She nods again, "How do you know?"
"Because I read the documents that tells me a little information."
"What type of information?"
Gianna settles down on her hospitable bed with the syringe and grabs her arm
"It just tell me how old you are, your name, and told me your injuries and other importances'."
Gianna holds her arm and enters the needle into the I.V.
"What is that for?"
"It puts medicine into your body to heal you injuries."
"Oh." Jessica begins to cry and wheeze
"Jessica! Jessica sweetie you need to calm down."
"Where's my family! Where are they!" She begins to kick around and cry even more
"Doctor! Doctor!" soon doctors rush in to calm her down
-5 hours later-
The doctor was explaining to Jessica's grandparents what had happened
"Why would that happen?" said her grandmother worried
"It's called emotional distress..."
The doctor went on explaining what had happened
How was it? Was it good! Sorry I am just really excited about it. Please review! Have a wonderful day!
