A to Z with the di Angelos
Parental Life of Heroes
10. I is for Italy [August 2025]
Italy was the most awesome place on the whole, entire planet! It was incredibly hard for Percy Junior not to tear away from her papà's hand to run off in excitement and look at everything close-up. They were on family vacation. They did that every year. The first Percy remembered had been boring – it had only been New York, but at least they had gotten their grandparents too. And they always went on the beach, because of mamma. This year however was really special, because they were in the city where their papà had been born. Okay, so New York was where mamma was born, but it wasn't so special because they often went there on the weekends too. Venice however was super-totally special and amazing and awesome. And Percy wasn't the only one to think so. Bia was as much in awe, listening intently as their papà told stories about his childhood here, together with their auntie Bianca, Bia's namesake. They hadn't gotten to meet auntie Bianca, but papà always spoke of her with very much love, so she must have been an awesome big sister, just like Percy's Bia was. Mamma was pushing a stroller with Jimmy and Silly, who were both only two years old and even though they could already run and babble a few words, long walks like right now were still too much for the little twins. On the little board behind the stroller stood Donny, right between the stroller and mamma's protection. His attentive eyes however were on papà.
"Let's head home for tonight", suggested mamma, looking at Percy, papà, Thess and Bia fondly.
Home was their summer home. Papà had promised they'd come to Venice more often now, because he had bought his old childhood home, which meant they were staying where papà had lived when he was their age. It had been in dire need of basic renovations, which was why they had only gotten to stay there now. But it was fine, because it was awesome and beautiful.
"Who's the old stuff from?", asked Percy eagerly, tilting his head back to stare at papà.
There had been a lot of old boxes in the house when papà had bought it. He turned to smile down at her, ruffling her curls, his dark eyes so soft and filled with love. The sun was setting and painted the funny looking houses and the pretty canals flowing through the whole city a beautiful red.
"Those belonged to my zia Elena", explained her papà patiently as they rounded a corner, heading toward the old house. "She used to live with my mamma, me and Bianca. She... lived in the house into the seventies. She left the house to a young man who had taken care of her when she got older and more... fragile. Apparently, he just kept all her old stuff in the attic. Since he passed away, the house has been empty. And now, well, now it's ours."
"I'm glad you have some family treasures back, Nick", whispered mamma, looking at papà with that special sparkle in his eyes that Percy knew meant just how much her parents loved each other.
"But Perce, I already have all the family treasures I could wish for right here", countered papà.
He rested his hands on Percy's and Thess' heads, causing the twins to stare up at him in adoration. Bia had fallen back so she could walk right next to Donny and the younger twins, to make sure they were fine, because she was an awesome big sister like that. Mamma laughed softly, which was a really nice sound that Percy liked very much. Papà was the best at making mamma laugh.
"I wanna live here", declared Thess next to Percy with determination in his voice.
"Yeah?", asked papà curiously.
"Uhu. When I'm really-really old like you and have my own husband and my own bambini, I wanna live right here where you grew up, papà", confirmed Thess, completely convinced.
"Me too!", exclaimed Percy hastily, jumping up and down. "If Thess lives here, I will too! Like nonna and your zia, right papà? Then we can be a family together and I'll be zia Percy!"
"Now, now, don't grow up too fast", warned papà, a fond smile on his lips. "For now, enjoy Italia as our family vacation, si? Tomorrow, we go to the beach and you can swim with mamma, that good?"
All the kids cheered at that idea, already occupied with the next thought and plan.
Author's note: Next chapter will have Bianca Maria's POV on staying over at uncle Tyson's (and aunt Ella's)!
Next update will be "Life at Novus Olympus Academy" on Saturday!
