Something terrible must have happened to Anastasia for her to seek “safety in obscurity.” Why would an American want to move to Italy, or anywhere for that matter, and not seem to understand anything about male chivalry? Even if he thought it was a date, why did she have to be so rude? This is why I think something traumatic has paralyzed her with fear. (I have lived in Mexico, Spain and Hong Kong and yes, it always takes time to melt into the rhythm of social interactions...a reminder for those of us who are contemplating a possible move after what could be a fatal 2024 election...)

Oh my! So many more thoughts and questions are running through head. Right, left, up, down. Where is the story going? Wherever the author takes us, it is certainly going to be an interesting ride !! Well done!!
