Frank's POV
"Why do you even speak Italian? We're in the US now." I said as I bit into my toast and got a clip round the back of the head by my grandmother or Nonna as what everyone in the family calls her.
"Don't talk back to me. Use your mother tongue." Nonna said and clipped me round the back of the head again.
I just rolled my eyes and got up from the table and grabbed my bag for school.
"I want not trouble today Frank. Please for me." Nonna said and pulled me into a hug which I returned.
"That's a promise I can't keep." I said quietly and pulled away and slowly walked to school.
Like normal school was complete hell.
"Your grandmother is scary. No offensive there Frank." My friend Chris said.
"She's not scary. She's Italian, very loud and loves her food." I said which made Chris chuckle.
"Food part yes, swear she's tries and fattens me up for Christmas dinner every time I go round yours." Chris said and I just had to laugh.
"She's only 45. How can you be scared of 45 year old?" I asked.
"Wait your grandmother is 45?" Chris asked and looked at me.
"Yeah, she was 15 when she had my mum and my mum was also 15 when she had me." I explained.
"So your at the jinxed age of having Alex and making a girl pregnant." Chris said and looked at me.
"I'm fucking gay Chris. My dick goes nowhere a girl, only guys." I said and Chris chuckled.
"Well speaking of girls, I've found my crush so I'm going off chatting to her. Laters.." Chris said and just left.
"Bye then." I muttered and slammed my locker door shut.
I walked in the front door feeling excited as normally on this date I would get a letter from my mum and dad.
"Nonna, has mum and dads letter come?" I asked as I rushed out to the kitchen and saw her sat at the table with her head in her hands.
"Nonna, what's wrong?" I asked beginning to feel worried and I looked round and saw someone from the army person sitting beside Nonna.
Both my parents was in the army hence why I live with Nonna because they was both on tour somewhere.
"Franklin don't do that to me!" Nonna said and sniffed loudly while wipping the tears from her face.
I looked down and muttered sorry.
"Frank why don't you put the kettle on yeah?" Nonna said and I nodded and walked to the kettle thinking about what happened to my parents.
"Your the Ieros boy?" The army person said and I looked round and nodded.
"Your parents always talk about you and your troublesome ways." The man said and I smiled and made everyone drinks and sat round the table.
"Has something happened to my parents?" I asked quietly and looked at Nonna who was looking down at her drink with tears in her eyes.
"Nonna? Tell me, I'm not 5 years old anymore I can handle this now." I said and put my hand on top of hers.
"I'm going to leave you two so you can talk. Thanks for the tea." The army person said and got up and saw himself out the house.
"Nonna?" I asked quietly.
"Frank I really don't know what to say." Nonna whispered.
"Has something happened to mum or dad? Nonna I need to know." I said.
"Frankie sweetie, your father was killed and your mother has been injured and its hard to know if she'll make it." Nonna said and I looked down and got up.
"Frank where you going?" Nonna asked.
"Going for a walk." I said and sniffed loudly as I put my hood up.
"Frank don't do nothing..." that's all I heard before I slammed the door shut.
I was sat in a park on a swing lost in thought when someone came over and sat on the other swing.
"Hard day?" They asked.
"You wouldn't have a clue." I sniffed.
"Dude you okay? You sound like your crying." They said.
"I'm fucking fine okay, just leave me alone." I snapped and got up and walked off to Chris's.
