The charm of Mr. De Luca

Amor and Psyche Love Story

“Good day, Mr. Gio,” greet Valentino with courtesy and very friendly. He always showed a good attitude in front of the middle-aged man.

“Good day, Vale,” reply Mr. Gio. “Since when are you here?” he asked with a full glance at Valentino.

“I just came, Sir,” Valentino replied politely. “I'd like to take Mia out if you don't mind. The plan is we will go to Libria Aqua Alta to find a new book there,” explained Valentino.

Mr. Gio did not answer immediately. His gaze turned to Mia who at that time did not dare to return the gaze of the father. Mr. Gio can understand that.

“Alright, but remember you have to deliver Mia immediately to go home before nine!” message Mr. Gio was resolute but still sounded relaxed. Valentino smiled broadly. The young man nodded immediately. He was happy because he did not have to try too hard to be able to persuade Mr. The famous Gio was resolute.

“How, Mia? You ready?” valentino asked as he looked at Mia who was just speechless.

Hearing Valentino say his name, Mia was immediately shocked and became excited. Lately, the girl has always been seen daydreaming alone. Mia nodded even though with a little hesitation. He doesn't know what to answer.

“Take your bag, son and go! Take it easy, I can still handle the tavern alone. After all, today's visitors are not as crowded as usual,” said Mr. Gio. He seemed to understand that at that time Mia was not concentrating. The girl nodded. He went to the kitchen to get his little sling bag. After that, they say goodbye to Mr. Gio who was then staring at his daughter's departure with nanar.

Mr. Gio seemed to be able to understand what was troubling Mia's mind. He continued to watch his daughter who was acting strangely since the departure of Matteo. Mr. Gio was unable to do anything, especially because Mia was a quiet girl. He is quite closed to his personal affairs.

Mia sits sweetly in Valentino's red VW Toad. Again, it was just pensive. Mia doesn't even listen to everything Valentino says. His mind was still fixed on Matteo who did not meet him. Mia then bit her lower lip slowly. He suddenly smiled to himself, as he recalled what Matteo had done to him. Mia could still feel that soft bite even today.

Valentino frowned as he glanced at the girl next to him. The young man was not discussing anything funny, but he saw Mia smiling to herself. “What's up, Mia? Does my story sound funny you think?” valentino asked in surprise.  

Mia realized. He then turned to Valentino who was then refocused on his wheel. Again, he did not know what to answer because he did not listen to all the words of Valentino. “Um .. i-yes, Vale. I ... I mean ... um .. can you repeat that? I enjoyed the trip too much, so ..” Mia did not continue her words. The girl smacked her lips. He regretted that he had to look ridiculous in front of Valentino. Meanwhile, the young man just laughed softly at Mia's bumbling attitude.

“You why, Mia? I've seen you daydream more than ever. What are you thinking?” valentino asked with great curiosity.

Mia just smiled a little. He couldn't possibly say that he was thinking of a man named Matteo, in front of a young man who had long had special feelings for him. However, Mia must still maintain the feelings of Valentino who has been his closest friend. The young man has also helped him a lot, not just for academic work.

Yes, Valentino is a young man with a high level of intelligence. He has always been an outstanding student from the time of school. Coming from a good and honorable family, Valentino's attitude has always been polite and never dared to act out.

Valentino is the perfect guy for every girl. However, somehow because Mia is more interested in making it just as a friend.

“Begini, Mia” Valentino re-opens his chat with Mia. “The plan is I will write an article about the strange myths that are developing in our country. I just want to know how young people like us respond to such things. You know, times have evolved. Our thinking is evolving for longer. Whether we as a young generation will forever be confined in a myth that has not been proven the truth even tends to sound absurd,” said the young man at length. While Mia is just a mangosteen.

“One more thing, Mia,” Valentino continued again. “Entah why because I began to be interested in learning about the dark world.”

“Dark world? You mean?” Mia scrunched her forehead. He looked at the young man with clueless eyes.

“Ya, dark world. Mafia syndicates, gangsters, and everything related to their organization,” Valentino explained again.

“Are you going to investigate about the mafia world? Isn't that very dangerous, Vale?” fret Mia.

“Wow, Mia! Are you worried about me? You make me flowery,” said Valentino with a smile expanded.

“Vale!” mia protest.

“Alright, alright! I don't want to argue. Now is the time to have fun,” Valentino drove his vehicle and stopped in front of the museum and famous library in Venice.

“I want to show you something,” Velentino hastily removed his seatbelt and helped Mia remove the seatbelt from his body.

Their faces had been close together, and it made Valentino misbehave because of it. Not with Mia. The girl's mind was still filled with other things.

“I'll show you about the classic love story of Roman times,” Valentino said. He then got out of his car and moved to the passenger door and opened it for Mia.

“Grazie, Vale,” said Mia while developing her smile that was so sweet.

Valentino grabs Mia's hand and hastily invites the girl into the museum area. The building looks ancient but luxurious with ancient Roman architecture and decorated with typical medieval carvings. The ceiling of the room is full of paintings of deities, further adding to the beauty of the interior of the museum.

“What do you want to show me, Vale? Why is it in a hurry?” mia asked with a slight gasp.

“I want to remind you of one thing that became the beginning of our familiarity many years ago,” replied Valentino while smiling meaningfully.

“What is it?” ask Mia curious.

“Love story between Amor and Psyche."
