SIENNA VENDITTO It seems that overnight things have turned to an absolute disaster. My father… my brother and suddenly a position I never thought of having is mine along with a responsibility of countless lives, of duties that stirred my conscience and a betrayal I know is closer than we all know. At a young age, papa has drilled into my system, to my very fiber of being that weakness is not an option. I’m a Venditto thus things such as tears, comfort and rest can wait. Days, weeks and months lay awake in the very confines of a house that haunted me without an appetite to eat. It’s like my drive of pushing on has forgotten how to do basic human needs. I didn’t want to disappoint papa, Gio or the family. There’s so much I can’t do wrong, so much riding on how I pull through from this.
