They Aren't The Same

Richard shook his head, quickly rejecting Lena's unspoken suggestion.

"Marcus and Jovani are too different. I don't know what you dealt with, Lena, but I don't think you could've mistaken one for the other." Richard couldn't readily recall Jovani's face before the past week. Marcus's, though… that was one he wouldn't be able to forget. No matter how much time passed, he could easily recall the other Vedova Nera cousin's face. For once, Richard lamented being at the hospital. Hard conversations were better had over drinks. Hard Liquor that would void any emotions.

"How certain of that can you be? The person I saw looked as near a copy of Jovani." Except for his eyes. Unhinged and crazy were not words Lena would've associated when she looked at Jovani. Even if he obviously had more than a few screws missing, the Vedova Nera boss kept tight control of what he expressed to others.
