The Mafia's Marriage Substitute Trap
Brian: Damn it, Dad, I'm not getting married now, everything is going so well, my businesses are flowing, the attacks on my nightclubs have stopped, the company is in its best phase, why should I get married at this point in the championship?
Diogo: You know this was going to happen, sooner or later… the advisers are already on top of it, they said that if you don't get married in 3 months, your cousin will take your place, is that what you want? Tell me, is that it?
Brian: Of course not, that imbecile has never done anything to grow in life, now he wants to live at my expense… he is not fit to be a Don. (Diogo leaning back in my chair)
Diogo: So stop whining, and get ready, because you're getting married in 7 days…
Brian: WHAT? (Diogo getting up from my chair)
Diogo: That's right, or do you want me to draw you a picture?
Brian: Marry whom? The wind? I haven't even found a bride yet… (Diogo sitting down again)
Diogo: You already have a bride, and you know it…
Brian: That round one from the Rossi family? No, I refuse…
Diogo: You don't even know the girl…
Brian: The whole city knows her, there's none more gone around. (Diogo refusing to accept this). Can you change the deal, and put her sister in her place?
Diogo: I doubt her father would accept, the youngest one doesn't even leave the house, she's never present at mafia events, it seems she's locked in a tower…
Brian: Find a way, Dad, you can do anything….
Diogo: Okay, I'll try but I promise nothing. (Gets up and leaves the office)
I pick up my cell phone and make a call.
Call on
Brian: Bruno, investigate the youngest daughter of the Rossi family, I want a full report.
Bruno: Yes sir, you'll have this report in your hands by tomorrow.
Brian: I hope so.
Call off
I try to get this problem out of my head, can you imagine Brian Salvatore married… This life is not for me, I like my parties, I have women whenever I want, why tie myself to one? I must be crazy…
I put that thought aside, and go back to work.
Meanwhile at the Rossi Mansion
Call on
Sergio: Okay Diogo, the deal stands, a mobster doesn't break a promise.
Diogo: Great Sergio, the wedding will be on Saturday.
Sergio: Okay.
Call off
I leave the office and go straight to the dinner table, where my two daughters and my wife were.
Paola: So, honey? What did Diogo want that was so important?
Sergio: To talk about the marriage agreement between his son and Karine.
Paola: What? My daughter is not going to marry that monster… You hear the stories, he is ruthless, he kills whoever he wants… I won't leave my daughter with him. (she says throwing the napkin on the table)
Karine: It's true, Dad, I won't. I have my studies, my things, besides, everyone says he's very ugly. I deserve better.
Sergio: You know very well that a promise is a promise, and a mobster doesn't break a promise. (He says seriously)
Paola: Honey, you don't have to break the promise, Ana can just go in her sister's place, right honey?
Ana: Me? What do you mean? You don't want Karine to go through the worst… but I can? (Diogo indignantly)
Paola: Don't compare yourself to Karine, you don't do anything. You're not even good for studying, she's already in college, she can't stop her life because of a stupid agreement.
Ana: Of course, you never let me study. I could never do anything, just be your maid. Since my mother passed away and my father found you, my life has become what it is today. I'm excluded from everything, which is wrong, since I'm the legitimate daughter, while Karine….
Sergio: Shut up, you insolent girl. (I feel a slap on my face). Go to your room, and you will only come out when Diogo so, and you will marry in your sister's place.
I put my hand to my face, and look at Paola and Karine, who at that moment has a sideways smile, anger rises up in me, but I know I can't do anything. I run to my room, lock the door, and there I burst into tears.
Ana: What will become of me, Mom? Why did you leave? Why did you leave me here? Take me with you, please, I can't take it anymore… (she says crying, curled up)
I stay in the same position until I fall asleep.
