Lorenzo would be lying if he claimed to be sorry to have missed the meteor and the invasion of tiny furry creatures - some things he really didn't need to see or experience himself. Besides, the pool boy - who curiously enough spent more time in the pool than he did cleaning it - was more than happy to give the Italian a minute recount of everything that had happened in the his absence. Most of it didn't make much sense, to be honest, but Lorenzo kept smiling and nodding, until they reached the part where his dogs decided to snack on the foreign animals.
The peace and quiet of the Italian's home was disrupted by some shouting accompanied by wild gesticulation that lasted well into the night. By Saturday, however, the Conti residence was back to its cheerful and happy self as was its owner as he headed out to meet Dani for coffee.
It had been a while since they'd managed to meet so he was looking forward to seeing her again. At the same time, however, he wasn't quite sure what to expect - she'd sounded so serious on his voice mail and in her texts. Well, he would find out soon enough. No need for idle speculation. And there she was.
"Ciao, Dani!" Lorenzo greeted her the European way - two kisses on the cheek and a big smile on his face - before he could stop himself. It always took him a couple of weeks to turn that habit off after visiting his family.
"It's good to see you. I hope you haven't been waiting long?" If she had, she must have arrived very early, because Lorenzo knew he was on time; had committed several traffic violations on his way here - another habit he'd have to switch off...
