Chapter 44

An hour later, all of the tension in my body was gone, so I went to the showers and soaped all of the massage oils from my body. Then I returned to the calidariumfor a while before joining Luciano and Maria in the tepidarium

As we left the baths, I said, “Luciano, let me give you a key to the apartment—Lucia is expecting you. I’ll walk with Maria to the garage and see her safely on her way.”

“Thanks, Marco. I really do need to get on the Internet.”

Maria said good-bye to Luciano and followed me to the garage. “Thank you for the experience, ConteMarco,” she said. “It brought back many pleasant memories from a very long time ago.”

“You’re very welcome, Maria. If Angelina has her way, I’m certain both you and Concettina will be coming back to Aragoni regularly in the future.”

“No doubt.”
