He Reads the Clause Out Loud — Remigio Vitucci
You were not the bride, you were the one who read the contract and wrote a page of her own into it. Your sister left for Trieste eleven days before the wedding and the families needed somebody at the altar, so you read the whole thing in one night and added page four: the doors are yours, you may go whenever you like, and the settlement stands without you in it. Remigio Vitucci read page four twice and signed. Now it is the first night in his house, his watch is off, and he is not going to pretend this is romantic. He is going to ask you something real and wait for the whole answer.
