Chapter 27 Matteo
My lips curved up into a smile at the text I received from my wife even though it was short and simple. It simply said: Be hungry because I'm making dinner. It was making me excited to go home because I couldn't wait to see the meal she was making for me. I kept glancing at my wristwatch every few minutes to see if the time was moving any faster. My mind wasn't focused on the meeting. All I could think about was going home. Alena had become an important part of my life while I had expected something different.
She managed to steal my heart from the moment her eyes met mine. Maybe, it was her intoxicating kiss, but I stopped thinking about it when my heart began to beat fast whenever I saw her.
I knew instantly about my feelings and there was no use in denying it any longer.
Angelo was sitting in the meeting room, occasionally glancing at my direction as if wanting to check on me. He knew whenever I was losing my focus, something I was doing more often now because my mind was always on Alena. Alena.

Alena didn't say anything else as her eyes watered. She wasn't being her usual self again and it confused me-her hands were trembling, and her skin was slightly cold.

I followed her gaze with a frown, seeing someone sitting on the sofa. The exact same light blue than they were five years ago. The same blue eyes that had me fallen in love all over again when we were married.
It was Sofia.
It was my dead wife. I couldn't let go of Alena's hand because I wanted to get a grip of reality. There was no way in hell Sofia was standing in front of me when we had buried her five years ago.

Her hair was slightly messy and there were a few smudges of dust on her face, but I could recognize her immediately. She was once the love of my life-she was still the love of my life until I fell in love with Alena.

I was about to say something, she didn't give me the time to react as she ran to wrap her arms around my body. My eyes widened at her sudden gesture, but I couldn't simply push her away. I left my hands hanging until she finally pulled herself away. "Are you not happy to see me?" She asked, frowning.
