Grazie, Dio.
Ysabel was stunned when Massimo suddenly hauled her towards him, but before she could ask him why, he was already kissing her senseless, and oh, oh, oh...
Oh, Mas.
It was the loveliest and hottest kiss ever, and all because this time, both of them knew the truth. Both of them knew they were in love with each other, and both of them knew their love had started five years ago.
Epilogue
Joe: Good morning, Boston! Welcome to Coffee with Joe and Jane, everyone's favorite morning show on the radio.
Jane: And speaking of favorites, we've got an early bird - well, birdwatcher actually - tweeting a photo of one our city's most beloved couples. We've already uploaded the photo to our socials, and if you check it out now, you'll see it's none other than Massimo Marchetti and his fiancée Ysabel Ossini.
Joe: Am I seeing things here? Or are they really on a canoe? At five *bleep* thirty in the morning?
Jane: Canoeing is said to be one of the future Mrs. Massimo Marchetti's favorite hobbies, and take this - it's actually how she's been traveling to work for some years now. Her billionaire fiancé think it's 'cute', and I'm quoting Mr. Marchetti verbatim, since he's gone on record several times to say this.
Joe: Their love story still confuses the hell out of me.
Jane: It's really not confusing at all, or maybe it is to guys. I mean, stories like this would never have happened if it was the other way around. Women's intuition, you know.
Joe: As a happily committed bachelor, I'm afraid I'll have to say no, I don't actually know anything about women's intuition—-
Jane: You're honest about it at least, so that's a start.
Joe: Can you give me a rundown of their relationship timeline? Maybe we've got other listeners who've yet to hear the whole story.
Jane: Well, okay. Anyone who follows me knows I've never been a #MasNez shipper, and I was Team #MasBel from the start, but...for the sake of objectivity, I'll do my best to outline stuff without bias.
Joe: We appreciate that.
Jane: So basically, five years ago, Ysabel was one of those who attended the Marchettis' annual Halloween bash.
Joe: Love those!
Jane: Now, Ysabel and Massimo kinda sorta bumped into each other in the funhouse, but then Ysabel had to do a Cinderella thing and run away when she heard someone call out her sister's name.
Joe: The Diabolical Ynez Ossini.
Jane: Now who's being biased?
Joe: No, seriously. I'm just reading one of the headlines that came up when I googled her name.
Jane: Oops. Sorry.
Joe: For the record, I'm not lying. The article's legit, and you guys can look it up as well and fact check what I'm saying.
Jane: Well, I guess I can see why her actions would seem diabolical? I mean, picking up from where we left off, we have Ysabel who ran away when she heard Ynez's name, and then there was Mr. Marchetti, who saw Ysabel react when the name 'Ynez' was mentioned.
Joe: So that's how he ended up mistaking Ysabel for her sister?
Jane: She had a face mask on that time, and since the two sisters do look really similar, I get why he'd be mistaken. But - and this is where women's intuition comes in - I really think he should've realized eventually she was nothing like the girl he had met that night, you know?
Joe: Well, here's the thing about us men. We hate admitting mistakes.
Jane: And again, I love that you're being honest about that. Way to go, Joe.
Joe: Thank you, and way to go to Massimo Marchetti and Ysabel Ossini, who have proven that true love will always win in the end...because they did, right?
Jane: Oh, absolutely. The last confirmed sighting of Ynez in Boston was like ages ago, and I've read several blind items online that say it's because Ynez has been, you know.
Joe: No, really, I don't know.
Jane: Excommunicado by everyone in Boston. They say it's tit for tat, and she's expected to stay away for five years, which is the same length of time she's kept the truth hidden from Massimo and Ysabel.
Joe: That's brutal, man. If it were true, I mean. But...it could've been worse, right?
Jane: Oh, wait! Look, someone's tagged us in another photo, and aww...these two have really been #couplegoals for everyone since they went public. I love how Massimo openly dotes on his fiancée.
Joe: We've been tagged in another photo, and err...I think you should use a different hashtag with this one.
Jane: Huh?
Joe: Think...NSFW, since I think Massimo's doting on her in a very special way!
Jane: Oh my goodness! Is he...oh my gosh!
Joe: You know how people sometimes talk about men hiding behind their women's skirts like it's a bad thing? Well, I guess it's completely different when they're under it? Or rather inside of it?
Jane: And...I think that's our cue to take a short break, here's a song requested by one of our listeners...
