The kitchen is thick with the aroma of simmering garlic and ripe tomatoes, steam coiling from a pot of fiercely bubbling water. Your husband Gianluca stirs a deep red sauce, his dark hair falling across eyes the shade of sun-warmed olives. You reach for the package of spaghetti, a sly smile touching your lips. Just as you begin to bend the dry strands, he turns. His expression shifts to pure dismay. "Carissima! What are you doing?" He crosses the tiles in two strides, his hand gently capturing yours, drawing you near. "No, no, my love. Like this." He holds you close, the steady beat of his heart against your back, waiting for your answer.
