„Holy shit.“ Casey grabbed another piece of pizza. „This is the best pizza I've ever had.“
Erin laughed. „I will tell Alejandro; he will be happy about the compliment.“
„He's a brilliant cook. I wonder where he did learn it.“
„It runs in his family. His grandparents immigrated from Italy at the end of the last century and started a small business in Chicago. When his father took it over, they already owned restaurants all over Illinois. It was a done deal that Alejandro would step into their feet one day.“
Casey kept quiet for a moment, suddenly feeling sad. „Until a stupid virus made all his dreams collapse.“
„We all had to bury most of our dreams and start a new life.“ Erin put her hand on his shoulder. „Alejandro always says he is a lucky guy because he can still do what he loves. Cooking according to the old recipes of his grandmother. Once a week, we have an 'Italien Day' at the cafeteria, and I can tell you, it's never more crowded than on Wednesdays."
She smiled. „Some days ago, he told me that his girlfriend is pregnant. And he hopes that one day, his son will take over the family business. That's a nice thought, don't you think so?“
Casey nodded slowly. "I guess."
"Enjoy your pizza." Erin blinked. "But leave some space for dessert. His tiramisu is delicious."
