Vincent's POV
"I don't know" Keona whispered shrugging her shoulders while I asked her what my boy Antonio is doing staring into space.
"Let me see"
I say to her wondering about a moment before going to the vending machine to buy myself a bottle of Clearly Canadian.
I soon opens the bottle cap before going towards Antonio and pour the whole bottle of sparkling water on his face.
"OH MY G-WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!"
He jumps in shock screaming like a girl as usual whenever that happens to him. "Well that work really well doesn't it?" I laughed a little as Keona quietly excuses herself back to her office.
"OH MY GOD PAPA!!"
He just gasps, not very loudly, the moment he realizes that it was me which didn't infuriate me, a good thing for me since his brothers on the others will really be screaming all day if I do the same thing to them.
"Whacha fussing for here alone? Come to my office at once, Agent Montessori"
I tell him before standing up and heading back to my office in which he follows along. "Now, tell me." I said once he settles himself down.
"Whacha fussing for just now?"
I then asked him the question again. He immediately bit his bit of the fingertip like a child which I right away know something was up.
"I heard people making out in the Forensics..."
He soon continues. "and found another Catherine Parr there." He looks up to me adding on.
"Making out in Forensics? Catherine Parr?"
I looked at him, hoping I am hearing wrongly. "The Henry Tudor has found his Catherine Parr." Antonio says nodding his head.
Seriously Rodrigo for real...? Sunny only just passed away months back and here you out there making up with another woman?
What will you want Jenny and Jacob or Sunny's family thinking of you as? You did that with Janet after Gwinnett's gone and now this...
"Cut to the chase, who is the lucky Catherine Parr, THE Henry Tudor has seek out for this time?" I soon ask my son another question, trying to take everything in at once.
Antonio was quiet for a bit looking back down for a few seconds before looking back up to me answering who is this UNLUCKY Catherine Parr person he is talking about:
"Marie Joan Lockett..."
-The Next Day-
Letizia's POV
"What can I do...? I am not going to waste my time on a lost cause."
I told my mentor Giuseppe when he was asking me why I wasn't looking after Daniel and working instead in my office.
"His illness is already that bad though, you're with him for all these years-"
He continues on in which I had to look at him in the eye to cut him off from talking any further.
"I know him too well, he rather smoke himself than opening his ears. I can't waste my time caring for him all day if he is to anything else but listen to anything in regards to his own health." I explained as I cut him off with the look.
"I have work to do, money to earn for my kids."
I continued. "But I also love my husband, problem is he doesn't love himself..." I added on as I felt I'm at the verge of breaking down myself until a door knock get me collecting myself back as I have somebody at the door.
"Analyst Rhineburg, I have news for you"
It was one of the new officers Rachel Rivera. I immediately let her in. "Good morning Sir." She greeted Giuseppe.
"If I remember correctly, aren't you supposed to be with Deputy Chief Han?"
He soon asks Rachel. Those under him were transferred out so that's why I'm here, Sir." Rachel politely explains to him.
"Any reason?"
He asks her again, she became quite silent when he asks that, looking uncomfortable with the topic. I can't help feeling bad for Rachel...
Rodrigo needs to stop bullying the Puerto Ricans under him or Chief isn't giving him any more mentees to mold.
"I see...even if you don't tell me..."
Giuseppe understands before looking at me. "He maybe have new interest over training us." Rachel whispers under her breath looking down.
"I beg your pardon, Miss Rivera?"
I asked her looking back up. "Did something happened?" Giuseppe soon asks like a nosy old man as always when comes to the gossips.
"People had been talking around that he is now in a relationship with Marie Joan Lockett from the Forensics Department. I even saw them making out without clothes down the side hallway while getting food elsewhere."
She naively tells us everything. I was trying not to laugh while Giuseppe was dumbfounded by what he has just heard from Rachel.
"M-Make without wha..."
He asks Rachel trying to comprehend the situation himself with his mouth wide open from the shock.
"But weird...though its only been 5-6 months I believe since Sunny went did he...?"
He then looks at me wondering himself. "Yeah...I am aware Rodrigo's wife has just recently passed on but..." I looked at Giuseppe before looking back at Rachel.
"Who was the officer he is making out with?"
He asks her again. "Marie Joan Lockett from the Forensics Department..." Rachel answers timidly. "WHAT?!" Giuseppe screams in shock that I had to glare at him just for him to keep his volume down.
Shocking that I can do that to my mentor but yeah...I had to do that or he can never keep his mouth shut with his scream...
"Thank you, Miss Rivera."
I thanked Rachel as she know its the cue for herself to be excused. As soon as she leaves, Giuseppe and I both looked at each other.
"What does that sound to you like?" I ask my mentor. "A promotion?" He looks at me with a smirk. "You can go find a wall and bang your head there as far as I am concerned." I responded unapologetically.
"Now topic off me."
He fake coughs a little and looks at me, I know the next topic is about John. "Lo sto permettendo fin dove questo va. (I'm allowing it as far as this goes.)" I tell him and he looks at me as if its my first time speaking Italian to him.
"Intendiamoci, anch'io ho 1/4 di sangue italiana. (Mind you, I also have 1/4 of Italian blood.)"
I reminded him in which he immediately apologized bowing down. "If this case can help John progress in this line, I am all in supporting him." I continued in English to him.
"This was a high profile case turned a decade old cold case by the way." I added on. "But John's only 20...he sure-" He soon continue on with the same crap that had me cutting him off by slamming the table.
"Mind you I had my detective badge and had my first two kids at that age. Roll around again with that crap and I will make sure you be heading for hell, G."
