* Tony's POV *

While madre was cleaning the manor earlier, Cole and I went out on the town. We hung out with our cousins and hit up the beach, but meanwhile all that was on my mind, all I could think about, was this girl my aunt has for me.

~ The following day ~

I head on in early to my aunt Francesca's diner, and I knock on her door before heading into her office.

She looks up and smiles.

"Ciao Tony," she says brightly, "what brings you in today?" Note: 'in so early to my office? - in Italian -

I look at her, and manage a small smile.

"Who is this mystery woman you have for me?" I ask. - in Italian -

She smiles at me, a wide smile.

She goes on (in Italian) of how bright and beautiful this girl is that I am to meet.

Then she says, as she pulls open a drawer, that she will check over her workers' schedule for the week.

She pulls out a piece of paper.

"Ah," she says, reading it over, "she will be in today."

I smile.

"Grazie," I say, "I look forward to meeting her."

* Stephanie's POV *

I am busting tables when I notice a kind stranger wearing a black leather jacket looking my way, and I smile over to him.

"Hi," I say as I walk over, "what can I - "

He interrupts me.

"One of you."

"Sorry?" - in Italian -

"One of you, and a piece of - "

He looks over his menu.

"Rodrigo's Famous pie," he says.

"Good choice," I say, "it's the best pie ever."

He smiles.

"Rodrigo is my cousin," he says, and I give him a look.

"Your cousin, is Rodrigo, and Ricardo?"

"Yes," he says, smiling, "and - "

A waitress calls me over.

"Sorry, be right back."

He looks annoyed, but understanding.

When I return after a moment, he looks up from looking over his menu.

He seems nice.

I ask if he would like anything else, or a drink.

"No, that'll be all," he says, and I smile at him, and sigh.

"Sorry, may I - "

I then hear my boss call my name, and it sinks in...

* Donatella's POV *

I call over to Zane from the couch about wanting a snack and a sparkling water, and I hear his little chuckle.

"Anything for you dear," he says. - in Italian -

I thank him as I go back to reading my Beretta magazine, and I ask Zane where the boys are.

"They're out," my husband says, moving stuff around in the kitchen, "Tony is over at Fran's, and Cole went to the beach."

I smile.
