Capítulo 556: SS6: The Towering Cypress Trees

Calix, Leslie and Calliope ended their first week in Rome by having dinner with Mr. and Mrs. Nucci. The middle-aged couple invited them to their private home in the historic city.

Mr. and Mrs. Nucci communicated with Leslie through English while Calliope didn't know much about their conversation. Calix and Leslie ever so patiently translated what was needed to their little child.

"Mrs. Nucci said I'm so lucky to have you and Poppy. She told me to bring you two to meet them often. Mr. Nucci said the same thing."

On their way back to the villa, Calix brought up what Mrs. Nucci told him before they left. A lovely shade of pink left a tint on Leslie's cheeks, concealed by the warm glow of the passing lampposts.

"Well... they're nice. I don't mind meeting them again."

Leslie was telling the truth. Mr. and Mrs. Nucci's warm personalities made her feel comfortable throughout dinner. They also treated Calliope well.
