I laugh now too and turn back to the woman, eagerly. “Pregnant!” I say, my hands going to my stomach, a little blush coming to my cheeks. “Sei incinta?” she asks, wanting to be sure. I look to Daniel, and he nods at me, and I turn to her and nod again eagerly. She throws…

And Gio’s face breaks into a grin almost as if he can’t help it before he nods his head back towards the house. “Follow me.” So, we do. Valentina grabs my hand on the way, giving it a supportive little squeeze that I return. And I wave to Nonna on my way out, pleased when…
