CARMELO
Life has many colors, and amongst the number of them, I found the most appealing ones to me. Black and Gold. With a wild wolf cut and coldest plus most hypnotizing brown eyes I've ever seen. They were alone, powerful enough to have me on my knees and begging for mercy.
A little dust of freckles on the cheeks and the sweetest lips that I'll never get enough of. Kissing her lips or smooching her cheeks has become my thing. My beautiful color speaks a lot of languages, but money is her favorite, and I love to spoil the hell out of her.
Fierce in the open with a gentle and delicate heart on the inside. A Grumpy facade that intends to push people away, but my teasing always manages to leave a crack behind it. Strong but never shy to show her vulnerabilities to me. Cold but sprinkles her kindness in her own way. Dangerous, but it's the fire in her that made me lose my senses. And God oh God, I'd willingly get on my knees and let it burn me.
I'm so madly, immensely, wholeheartedly, longingly in love with her. And I would spend my last breath showing her just how much I do.
I saw her. I fell for her. I knew it was her. And it had to be her.
Mia vita, my tesoro, my little miracle. The living proof that I could be a better man. The one who controlled my entire world, Chichi.
CHIARA
I achieved a lot of things in life. But nothing would ever compare to the light God sent my way at an unimaginably unexpected time.
I was going to kill Antonio, but witnessing my mother do it instead soothed something deep inside me. It was satisfying to see her finally breaking through the veil that monster had covered her with for years.
I never saw myself as worthy of it. Then he came as a striking light into my dark life. Leaving me with no choice but to let it blind and consume me whole.
The light that never failed to show me that I was worthy of everything in life. Love, happiness, joy, and most importantly, belongingness. His force was so strong, and I swear it is in the way he smiles that sparks electricity inside me and makes me forget even to breathe.
So natural, infectious, making me forget who I was and lose myself completely. And I fear, I didn't want to be found if it meant I got lost in him. I never believed in God because I fought most of my battles alone, and so I convinced myself he didn't exist for me. Then this light in a form that reminded me that I can find God amidst my darkened soul. Because God, in fact, was everywhere around me. And I believe this now because he sent him to me.
God, I'm so desperately, dangerously, insanely, and deeply in love with him. And I would spend the rest of my life showering him with it because my love was better shown than spoken.
At last, I found happiness and my peace in a human form. In the man who became a man that I never thought I could have. The one I'd kill for, Melo.
