Episode # 3
Mrs and Mr Morvanti stood side by side, watching their daughters walk down the path with Dario beside them.
The girls were laughing, their voices loud. Dario walked calmly, his eyes always watching, always alert.
Mrs Morvanti leaned against her husband.
She watched the children for a moment longer, then wrapped her arms around him.
Mrs Morvanti(FL's & Sofia's mom)
And rested her head on his shoulder.
Mrs Morvanti(FL's & Sofia's mom)
Now everything will be okay. Our protection is tight now.
Mr Morvanti smiled, his eyes following the their daughters with Dario.
He placed a hand over hers.
Mr Morvanti (FL's & Sofia's dad)
I'm so happy now. Finally, I can breathe.
After the welcome feast, the Morvanti estate was quiet.
Upstairs, Leila was asleep in her room.
She lay curled under her blanket peaceful.
Then, the door creaked open–slowly and quiet.
Dario stepped inside. He didn't make a sound, just walked softly over to her bed.
He knelt beside her and whispered, more to himself than to her.
Dario Velenmor
You're so beautiful...Leila.
He slowly reached out his hand to move the strand of hair off her face.
Just as his fingers were about to touch her skin–Leila's hand shot up and grabbed his wrist.
Her eyes opened. She didn't look sleepy.
Leila Morvanti (FL)
What are you doing... Brother Dario?
She said, her voice low but serious.
Dario froze, the pulled back a little, still kneeling.
Dario Velenmor
I didn't mean to disturb you. I just...I saw hair on your face. I was going to move it.
Leila didn't let go right away. She looked at him carefully.
Leila Morvanti (FL)
Doing that while I'm asleep, without asking, isn't the right way.
Dario lowered his eyes and gave a small nod.
Dario Velenmor
You're right. I'm sorry. I won't do it again.
He stood up and walked slowly toward the door.
Dario Velenmor
Sleep well, Leila.
He said, without turning around.
Dario Velenmor
I'll leave now.
He stepped out of the room and gently closed the door behind him.
Leila sat up in bed, watching the door for a moment. Then she whispered to herself.
Leila Morvanti (FL)
what's with him...?
She lay back down, but sleep didn't come right away. Her eyes stayed open in the dark.
