Miguel’s Family

That night Gemma slept like a baby and by the time she woke up in the morning, she found a note on her nightstand from Miguel. 

 

"We have a party to attend together this evening, be ready by 8 pm."

~Miguel

 

Gemma smiled as she climbed out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash up. She should be angry at Miguel for not telling her about the party earlier, but she wasn't.

 When she went to the kitchen, Stella was standing by the stove stirring something in a pan, humming to herself.

 

"Good morning Mrs. Greco," Stella greeted Gemma, smiling. 

 

"Stella, I have told you to just call me Gemma, you call Miguel by his first name why can't you do the same with me?" 

 

Stella's smile widened. "I'm sorry, I keep forgetting. Did you sleep well?" 

 

"Yes, very well actually," Gemma climbed one of the stools by the kitchen island. "What are you making?"
