La kryptonite nella borsa Page #4

He said there's nothing wrong.

No, I said physically

there's no cause

for your daughter's headache.

Rosaria needs to rest

and should start talking to someone.

Talk ? She talks all the time,

she's a real talker.

She's just a little bit glum now,

but she talks all the time, non-stop,

with me, her sister, her brothers,

her husband...

Did you like the rice casserole ?

Delicious, the first hot meal

I've had in days,

been living off mozzarella,

soon I'll turn into one.

I'm sure this mess

will get sorted out...

Rosaria doesn't seem

to care about anything anymore.

She's sick...

Even if she's sick,

a woman must tend to her things.

Or else it's her own fault

if her man cheats on her... right ?

-1 don't want to think about it.

- Then don't think.

It's not me I'm worried about,

but Peppino.

I need to find a distraction

for that boy.

- Shouldn't they eat chicken feed ?

- Nonsense !

He likes grandma's onion omelette.

Second is devouring it!

Good boy, Second !

You like the omelette, huh ?

Peppino, quick !

Get the Micorex!

Quick!

I said quick!

In any case, life goes on,

understand ?

Peppino, understand ?

It's a tricky situation.

Peppino's a problem child,

he has lots of issues.

Now that Rosaria needs to rest,

he needs supervision...

we have to find a solution.

Right.

So who's going to take this child ?

His dad works,

his mum's in bed all day...

those other grandparents...

They're southerners,

they use chairs and ropes !

- We don't like that.

- Wise words, indeed.

Assunta said

she can watch him on Thursday.

He can come to my house too,

but he can't just stay here.

It's like he's in prison !

I'd like to help,

but with my illegal cigarette stand,

the transporters, the police,

Patrizia...

I'm far too busy.

I have an idea.

Peppino needs a distraction.

Homework aside,

he has the right to have some fun.

The boy is so eloquent!

I ain't watching him

because I do studying.

But Titina and Salvatore

have nothing to do

and are always penniless.

If you give them a little something,

they'd gladly watch him.

My son is so brainy !

I said to Elio:

"Thanks for the music, dance with us."

He said:
"No thanks,

I'm not much of a dancer."

Not much of a dancer indeed,

he hobbles !

- You're from the Greek capital ?

- Not from Athens but I'm Greek.

- All of us are Greek.

- How come you're here ?

To study, kind of...

Sorry, didn't mean to wake you.

Pity about these glasses...

you'd be cute without them.

Thanks a lot.

You know I love you, right ?

Yes, I know.

I love you too.

You're a strong boy.

You'll pull through in any case.

Why "in any case" ?

No reason.

Go to sleep, it's late.
