Dominic

While looking in the mirror, I fumble with my necktie and it’s frustrating me even more because I’m running out of time. I know my father will be calling me once again, demanding that I hurry for the emergency meeting this evening

As I finally get it right, I tilt my head to the side, glancing at Carmella through the mirror. She’s all curled up on my bed.

“Hurry up or I’m leaving without you.”

“I’ll be there soon.”

I hurry even more, not wanting him to go without me. I’m now part of the team.
