Blair and Griffin stayed for dinner, and I cooked my first meal in Enzoâs kitchenâItalian wedding soup and bruschetta on toasted sourdough. Enzo volunteered to go to the grocery store for ingredients, so after checking his pantry and fridge, I sent him on his way with a list. Griffin tagged along, and Blair helped me unpack the rest of my things and then reorganize Enzoâs kitchen. He probably wouldnât be able to find anything easily for a while, but my system made a lot more sense for a cook. He actually had a beautiful kitchen, with high-end appliances, gorgeous finishes, and pricey copper cookware. I loved cooking in it.
After Griffin and Blair left for home, Enzo and I finished the dishes and cleaned up the kitchen. When the sink was empty and the counters gleamed, I felt like a cup of tea. My nerves were a little frayed, and I didnât think more alcohol was a good idea. The closer we got to bedtime, the more anxious I became. Was Blair right? Would he knock on my door?
I took a plain white mug down from the cupboard and found a box of herbal tea Iâd brought from my condo in the pantry. âWant some?â I asked Enzo, who stood at the island looking at his phone.
He glanced up. âNo thanks.â Then he returned his attention to the screen and frowned.
âWhatâs wrong?â I used the insta hot to fill the cup.
âMy mother wants us to come for Sunday dinner tomorrow after church.â
âOkay.â I paused. âIs that a problem?â
He met my eyes. âFather Mike is coming. I think sheâs going to push us again about having the marriage blessed.â
âOh.â I bobbed the teabag in the hot water. âI still feel weird about that. Since this isnât a real marriage.â
âSame.â He set his phone aside and rubbed his face with both hands. He hadnât shaved today, and his stubble was dark and thicker than usual. âIâll think of some way to put her off. Want to watch a movie or something?â
âSure.â
I took my tea over to the smaller of the two couches and sat at one end, my legs stretched out across the cushions. After grabbing a beer from the fridge, Enzo joined me, settling on the opposite end of the same couch, even though there was another oneâa bigger oneâadjacent to it with just as good a view of the large TV screen. Neither of us reached for the remote to turn it on. Enzo seemed distracted as he took a sip of his beer.
âEverything okay?â I asked, wrapping both hands around my warm mug.
âYeah. Just thinking.â
âAbout the priest?â
âAbout my parents, actually.â
âWhat about them?â
He rubbed that spot beneath his bottom lip he always rubbed when he was fretting about something. âTheir relationship is a big reason why Iâve never really looked forward to marriage.â
I took a sip of tea. âTell me.â
âBasically, hereâs what I grew up thinking about being married to someoneâitâs noisy, frustrating, and sometimes destructive. Thereâs a lot of yelling, and the things you yell loudest are the things you know will piss the other person off the most.
