Not only does our narrator find Tracy Perkins' skills wildly entertaining, he envies her too. But something happens, causing him to see her in a different light altogether ...

The sixth in a series of short stories by Camlo de Ville

On my day off last week, my wife and I decided to dine at Giovanni's Casa Della Pasta. We were regulars there and knew the place was always chock a block, so my wife reserved a table.

And it wasn't the cuisine either; the food had about as much to do with Italy as kangaroos with Greenland.
