Giovanni continued to stare at the ceiling and then he began to laugh. "If that's what you believe Sera, then go ahead. I respect Luciano, he protects me and he is one of my closest friends. Sera, you are like your mother. Ready to run away. Ready to end it all." The last few words came out slurred, once again Gio was drunk. It seemed he was being drunk a lot lately.

That was cruel. One of the worst things he could have said. She winced again and grabbed at his bottle of scotch, throwing as much of the alcohal onto him as possible.
"And you're a pathetic example for your sons, sitting here getting drunk in the middle of the afternoon! I guess you're right. I dont want to be married to a man who doesnt love me, and even so I dont want my children to be without a father and a mother."
She walked away then. "I refuse to talk to you anymore if you're just going to belittle me! You do that enough without words!"

When the Scotch landed on him in a large wave, he let his chair fall back to it's original position and he shot up. He said "Sera, you know what? Fine. Perhaps you'll come to your senses." Then Giovanni just shrugged and headed towards his liquor cabinet. Even though he didn't realize it, he was becoming like his late brother Carlo, drowning his problems in alcohol. Then he poured himself another glass and raising it towards Serafina he said "Cheers." and drained the glass. Perhaps it was then he decided to continue his talk with Serafina, for he got back up and began to walk towards her, mumbling "Sera, we need to talk."

Serafina had left the room to get back in bed. But then she remembered she had a doctors appointment that day and she forced herself to get into the shower.
She'd stripped to nothing when Gio came in and she grabbed for a robe to hold it infront of herself, not wanting him to see her for some reason.
"What is it?" She snapped with a frown. "What do you want from me Gio?"

Giovanni smiled and he walked towards her, letting off the strong smell of Scotch and Vodka he slurred "Discussion. We need to continue talking. Just don't stay...don't stay angry at me."

Serafina looked disguested and she backed away. "You're drunk. How could we have any kind of rational discussion? Besides. What is there to discuss? We've both agreed our marriage is a wreck."

"You're drunk. How could we have any kind of rational discussion? Besides. What is there to discuss? We've both agreed our marriage is a wreck." Giovanni shrugged and continued to talk "We can...we can make it work. For the kids. For our unborn child. We need...need to at least try. Please, let me...let me go to the hospital with you if you want. Just let me prove myself to you."

Serafinas eyebrows raised and his words touched her. She hadnt thought he'd say something like that, but when he did she was finally able to drop the angered front she put up.
With an outcry, she dropped her robe and rushed to him, throwing her arms around him in an embrace as she started to sob all over again.
"Oh god! Oh god Gio I want to make it work! I don't want to be without you!" She sobbed hysterically against his shoulder, her hands clinging to him. "I love you with all my heart, and the idea of loosing you makes me just... I just want to die!"

Giovanni hugged her and said "Let me..let me go with you today. I want to be there by your side at the hospital today. Just please, let me go. I'm sorry. Sera, I'm sorry."

"Yes!" Serafina looked up, touching his face gently with her fingertips while tears still streamed down her face. "Yes come with me."

Giovanni smiled, and felt her hand touch his face he replied "Then you best get ready, and I need to change and perhaps I should stop drinking?" Giovanni was still drunk yes, but at least now he was thinking more clearly.

"I have to shower." Serafina let him go. Although she wasnt feeling even close to well again, she felt better knowing that he wanted to save their marriage.
She quickly stepped into the water, letting the hot water take much of her stress and hangover away...

Giovanni exited, and after splashing his face with cold water from the sink, changed into an Gucci suit and some Prada dress shoes. He still smelled strongly of alcohol, and no matter how much cologne he put on, it wouldn't go away completely. Only a shower would do that, but he wasn't in the mood to take a shower now. Exiting he slurred, but his slur was less noticable now, "Sera, you ready?"

Serafina didnt blow dry her hair, but braided it carefuly before she dressed in a matunity blouse and dress pants. She put everything she'd need into a black prada bag and slipped into black pumps.
"Yes." She answered, turning to look at him and frowning when he was obviously still drunk. She didnt know if she wanted to show up at the hospital with him like that...

He cleared his throat, and said "Then let's go shall we." And he held out his arm politely for her to grab.
*Short, but next one will be longer.
