[Putting this one ahead of the Fran story about to start; updates may be sporadic, synopsis to be revised]
I’m a fifteen-year-old language prodigy who loves traveling around the world.
In my fourth month in Italy, I got a boyfriend who was two years older than me.
His name is Lambo. He’s Italian, a crybaby who loves showing off. Every day, he keeps one eye closed to look cool. He has curly hair and green eyes, just like me.
He’s timid, cries easily, childish, and a little clingy. By any measure, he’s not exactly a proper man, but I still like him a lot.
He’s six feet tall and two years older than me, but long live the younger-guy vibe
I cheered silently to myself.

In my fifth month in Italy, I got a message from my older brother.
My brother, one of the five executives of the Port Mafia, told me he’d be coming to Sicily on a business trip next month. He’d be able to spare a little time to spend a day with me in Italy.
I was thrilled, and told him he could meet my boyfriend while he was here.
He didn’t have much to say about my long-distance romance. When he found out my boyfriend was just an ordinary Italian crybaby, he was even less interested in meeting him, so he turned me down without hesitation.
I didn’t mind. Once he refused, I didn’t try to change his mind. Instead, I excitedly started planning our day together. I could definitely come up with the best itinerary!
Before I knew it, the day we were meeting had arrived.
Happily linking arms with my brother, who’d changed into casual clothes, I led him through the streets and alleys, planning to take him to my favorite gelato shop for pistachio gelato.
On the way, we ran into my boyfriend and his brothers.
I was just about to cheerfully take my brother over to say hello, and let Lambo meet a family member in advance to see how he’d react, when my brother yanked me behind him.
In a serious tone, he told me they were the Tenth Boss of the Vongola, the biggest mafia organization in the underworld, and his Guardians. He told me not to approach them because it was dangerous.
I looked at Lambo and his brothers, then slowly turned to my brother and gave him a question mark: ?
What? The Vongola Tenth Boss and his Guardians? Who? Lambo? Lambo’s brothers??
In shock, I asked my brother who Lambo was.
He told me Lambo was the Guardian of the Storm, then realized and asked how I knew his name.
Me: ...
Ha. Not only did I know his name, we’d kissed.
