Darien pulled into the parking lot of the restaurant. He stepped out, adn walked to the counter. The young woman ther smiled at him, and rattled off a greeting in fluent Italian. Darien answered, blowing his whole Italian vocabulary in that one sentance, but she always seemed to appreciate his doing it.
"Here for your order?" She asked him in English.
"Of course. Is it ready?" Darien asked.
"Of course! Just a moment." She turned and went intot he kitchen. Moments later, she appeared with a set of bags for him, and set them on the counter.
"What do I owe you?" She smiled.
"Padre still says your maney is no good here."
"Oh come on Agnostina! That was six years ago, and I only reinforced the ceiling in the kitchen!"
"Padre still says we are not to take money from you. Is that why you only order rarely?"
"Pretty much. I don't want to take advantage of him." She smiled.
"So you will still help us with the hardwood in the new dining room?"
"I don't know. If I do, is your father going to try and give me you as part fo the payment?" SHe laughed, adn waved him out of the place. Smiling, always liking a round of banter, he made his way back to the car.
He'd been gone for close to an hour when he started his way up the steps to the apartment. And he had to be honest, the smell coming from those bags was making his salivate enough that he thought about just sitting on the stairs and eating ti all right there. Of course, then he'd be in a food coma, but...he unlocked the apartment, and stepped in.
"I'm back." He called, shutting the door, adn relocking it, before setting the bacgs on the counter nearby, and getting his shoes off. He looked about for Madeline.
