Prologue
''Chibiromano glared enviously at Chibitalia, why did Grandpa Rome always ignore him? Why did his stupid fratello get all the attention?  The two laughed, and Chibiromano huffed angrily. ''

''So what if he wasn't artistic? He had other good qualities, but did Grandpa Rome care? Of course not, he only paid attention to Chibitalia... ''

''As his thoughts wandered, Chibiromano got increasingly upset, not to mention jealous, in the end, he simply trudged off to find somewhere he could let off steam. ''

''He let his mind wander as he left Rome's house, somehow, when he finally looked up, all that met his gaze were wheat plants as far as the eye could see. ''

''"All this wheat could make a lot of pasta..." he grumbled ''

''"Well, they could also be used to make cake!" a voice said behind him ''

''He spun around, a girl with long flowing golden hair and a simple white dress was holding a water bucket behind him. But most stunning were her eyes, she had the most beautiful eyes that sparkled in a rainbow of colors. ''

Chibiromano gazed into her eyes, completely lost in their depths 

''The girl blinked, "Hello?" ''

''After realized he'd been staring at her for a while, Chibiromano blushed, "Uh... I guess... But you would need lots of sugar too..." ''

"Hmmm... True... But-" 

''"Angelica! I said water, now!" ''

''She grumbled something Chibiromano didn't catch, but it sounded like, "Coming you impatient bastard.". ''

''The girl grinned at Chibiromano, "Well, see you some other time!" ''

''She ran off towards the voice, careful to not spill the water. ''

''<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">That was the start of a long line of meetings, after that, Chibiromano went to the fields everyday and talked with Angelica everyday. ''

''<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">"Hey Roma, how come you never talk about your family?" ''

''<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">Immediately, Chibiromano tensed, "None of your business, cake bastard." ''

''<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">Angelica squinted, he only called her that when he was in 'tsudere mode', maybe she shouldn't probe further? ''

''<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">Despite all instincts she decided to investigate, "Do you have siblings?" ''

''<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">"None of your business." ''

''<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">"What about your parents?" ''

''<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">"Shut up!" ''

''<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">"...Grandparents?" ''

''<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">"Leave me alone!" ''

''<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">Chibiromano got up and ran back as fast as he could, leaving Angelica feeling guilty. ''

<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">'Poor Roma, I should apologize tomorrow...' 

''<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">But she never got the chance. ''

''<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">The next day, Chibiromano waited in the fields for hours, and Angelica never came, same for the next week. One day, he ventured into the town she lived in. ''

''<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">"Um, does a girl named Angelica live here?" He asked shyly ''

''<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">A man knelt down next to him and sighed, "Are you Romano? Angelica used to talk about you pretty often." ''

''<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">Chibiromano blushed, surprised, "She talked about me?" ''

''<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">The man nodded, "She really liked you too... a lot, but a week ago she died in a fire, the ovens in the bakery exploded for some reason, and she didn't make it out." ''

''<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">His eyes widened, "Angelica... Is dead...?" ''

''<span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:13px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;">He was left alone again, his only friend was gone... ''
