Chapter 67 The Promise Made

• Sitting on one of the benches in Central Park, the fresh spring breeze caresses my face as I reflect on everything that has happened since I arrived here. Almost seven months have passed since I made the decision to leave Italy and start over in New York, carving a new path away from the chaos that Luigi brought into my life.
• At first, even though I was convinced that this was the best thing to do, when I found myself alone in an unfamiliar environment, reality hit me like a bomb. I had to be strong to tread this new path, trying to keep the promise I made to Matteo.
• Throughout my pregnancy, there wasn't a single minute when I didn't imagine what it would be like to experience this with Matteo by my side. The first movement, the first strange craving, the discovery of the gender... Every moment was a mix of happiness and longing. However, I am proud to have made it this far.
