“I just… I never thought you would keep something like that from me, especially after you claim to love me,” she says, impaling me with her words. “And I do… I do so love you, but—”
“Nuddu si pigghia si un si rassumigghia,” I recite the old Sicilian saying, which means no one is attracted to who they do not resemble. “So what does that make you, Lucia?”
Her eyes widen at what I am implying, and I sigh as I take her hands in mine. “We can talk about this later, just let me get you to a doctor, okay?”
