Unstable Emotions

Detroit

The Famigila Morelli

feud

It rained. Dressed in black. There are white flowers everywhere. The grass is muddy.

Another loss had been suffered. Tears flowed down the faces of everyone around the white gold casket.

The only difference is that it wasn’t done by an enemy this time.

Mother of Nino Morelli and wife of Sergio Morelli, Isabella Russo.

Still, the question remained. Having such a kind and warm heart, how can a deadly illness take it all away from someone so loving and kind?

Cancer.

It was unexpected and yet so sudden at the same time. The illness reached stage four and was not caught in time. Sergio Morelli awoke in the middle of the night to an empty bed, mourning the loss of his wife. She was the only woman who ever won his heart.

When she died and moved on to her peaceful place in the sky, he lost a piece of himself and nearly forgot he wasn’t the only one grieving. While Sergio forced himself to be okay, Nino was cared for by his father. Another piece of his heart.

Although Nino did everything his father asked of him, he was no longer the happy and emotional boy he once was. He did not want to experience the pain of losing his mother, and her loss affected him to the point of breaking point.

As a result, the sweet boy shut down, forced away all of his emotions, and vowed that he would never place himself in a position of weakness or vulnerability again.
