Maree, a single mother, was caught off guard when her brother suggested she marry Roberto. Maree, who had just had Emily, was not ready for a relationship and made sure that Roberto knew it. Getting the hint, Roberto soon left for Florida, but kept in touch with Maree’s brother, Joe. After fifteen years, on a busy Friday night, Roberto visited Bella’s. It was at the restaurant that Maree and Roberto had a moment. Roberto suggested that Maree visit him, but she never did.
