Another day at the Luxor but Criss just sat at his desk. He was lonely and his brothers could tell as they looked at Criss through the window of the production office. "God I hate seeing Criss this way". "What do you expect Melina was a great girlfriend but when Criss found out she was using him for his fame it broke his heart". "I can't believe I'm going to suggest this but you remember Rachel Lynn's college friend. Well she's in town and I'm thinking of setting her and Criss up" JD suggested. "Wait a minute you mean like a blind date you know Criss won't go for that he'd make you disappear forever"Costa remarked. "If he doesn't think it is". "This is your idea not mine"Costa replied as they went into the production office. "Criss I need a favor"JD asked. Criss turned around. "What's that?" lookedf at his brothers. "Well you remember Lynn's college friend Rachel; well she's in town and I was wondering if you could show her around". "Why me?"he asked curious. "Don't ask me Lynn said ask Criss I don't trust Costa with Rachel" JD replied. "Hey!"Costa declared as Criss muffled a laugh. "All right I'll do it" and Criss left.

After JD talked Criss into the date he called his wife and told him the plan. "You are bad JD". "I'm not bad I'm just concern beside I think Rachel and Criss would make a perfect couple". "All right but if Criss finds out this is a date he'll kill you and hide your body probably next to Hoffa's remains"she remarked and hung up. At the company Rachel waited at the bar. She 's a good looking woman with her shoulder length brownish blonde hair. She too has had trouble dating but it wasn't because of the men she dated it was her family that made some of her boyfriends run for the border but she hoped that this date would go good. "Rachel"a voice said. She turned around and saw Criss. "Christopher boy you've changed since Lynn and JD had Dimitra"she remarked as Criss smiled. "Well why don't we go for a walk down Freemont street"Criss suggested as they left. As they walked they talked about everything from their past to what they do now.

"So you work with your father?". "Yea I do the bills and stuff"she said. "What about your mom?". "My mom passed away when I was five weeks old my dad and my brothers raised me"she replied looking down. "I'm sorry I didn't know" he remarked. "It's not your fault Criss". "How many brothers do you have?". "I'm one of five brothers"she replied. Criss whistled. "I think I'd go insane if I was the only boy in a family of women" Criss said as Rachel laughed. "I was a tom boy for a while untill I hit thirteen and when boys started to recognize me as a girl than a boy that's when my brothers' defensive natures came out “she stated. "I don't blame them"Criss replied as Rachel smiled. Then Rachel's phone went off. She saw it was her brother Donnie. "Hello Donald what can I do for you?"she remarked. "Just wanted to see how you were since you never been to Las Vegas before". "Donnie for once in your life stop checking up on me and don't tell the rest of the gang to call because I'm going to shut off this phone" and hung up.

"Big brother" Criss remarked. Rachel put her phone back in as her wallet fell out. Criss picked it up as he looked at a picture. "Your clan" giving it back to her. "Yup Donald the oldest, the twins, Jackson and Joseph, Mark, than Patrick and yours truly" as she pointed to each brother. "Well it's getting late and I have a show to do so we should get back,"Criss said as they walked back to the hotel. "You know what why don't you join me as my guest for Believe". "Sure Lynn's been telling me how wonderful and exciting the show is". As they walked back Criss started to feel better and felt like he had found someone to love.

[RACHEL02189]

When Rachel got back home she felt happy like she was floating on air. She hadn't felt that way in a long time. At her family's restaurant her brother Jack was looking over some reservation while Mark cooked. "Well I see the place hasn't burnt down down since I’ve been gone"she replied walking in. "Hey Ray how was Las Vegas"Jack asked giving her a hug. "Well the good thing is she didn't get drunk and got married"Mark called out from the kitchen. "No I got a quickie divorce before I came home," she joked as Mark and Jack laughed. "Where's dad?".

"Went to check out a site for the new restaurant with Donnie"he stated. Then he came looking angry. "Dad relax we'll talk to the zoning broad tomorrow". "What's wrong?"Mark asked coming out of the kitchen. "The family who owns the building next door where dad wants to put another restaurant won't sell the place"Donnie said. "What's the store?" she asked. "Some place called Monster Music"her father replied. "The lady said that her sons and her husband started the store what a bunch of-". "Dad relax we'll talk to the zoning broad tomorrow and see if we can move the place or kick them out" Donnie stated. "All right why don't we get ready for the dinner crowd". Back in Las Vegas JD was talking to his mom as Criss walked in. "Mom relax they can't do anything to us. All right I'll come down tomorrow" and hung up. "What's wrong with mom?"Criss asked leaning against his desk. "Some guy bought the store next to Monster and he wants the store Monster's in but mom won't sell and the guy's furious about it"JD stated. "Well that guy can pound sand Monster will never close"Criss replied. "Criss you remember a man by the name of Randall Avairy". "Doesn't he own Michelle's that Italian restaurant". "Yea he's the one who wants to close down Monster". "What a-". "Don't say it Criss remember you're trying to keep your language clean". "Oh yea" as he sat down. "I heard you and Rachel had a good time when she was here"JD remarked.

"Yea I really didn't want her to go". "Looks like cupid hit you with Rachel"JD said. Before Criss could say anything the crew came in and they started to work. The next day Donnie decided to take Rachel over to where they wanted to put the new restaurant. "I can't believe the zoning broad won't budge on this". "Donnie relax I swear you're just like dad"she remarked. "I'm just angry that we can't get this music store to move or close down. With the economy the way it is I'm surprise it's still open" he remarked. When they got to the site Dimtra was getting out of the car. "There's the woman that won't sell the place. Saying her kids started the place with their father. I'm not even sure she has kids or was even married" Donnie stated. "I swear Donnie you've got dad's temper ha-". Rachel stopped talking as she saw JD getting out of the car

[RACHEL02189]

Oh my god Criss's family own this place she thought. "Hello Ray Ray to Earth"her brother said waving his hands infront of her. "Sorry just got lost in thought" as they went into the place. As they went over the plans Rachel's phone rang. "Hello"she said. "Don't say a word just come outside" the voice replied. "Wait let me go outside the reception in here is terrible" and she went outside. She hung up her phone as JD did his. "JD I swear I didn't know your family owns-". "Come on let's go over to the park and talk so your brother and my mother don't see us talking" and they walked into the park. "JD if I knew that Monster Music is owned by your family-" she remarked. "Listen Rachel there is nothing you could of done. Right now we just need to keep this quiet". "JD what about Criss if he finds out my family wants to closes down your store it's going to turn into the Hatfields and the McCoys"she suggested.

"Or World War Three between your father and my mother"JD said. "Well for now it hasn't gone that far-". All of a sudden they heard sirens. Great my ather's temper strikes again as they ran out. When they came out of the park she saw her brother getting arrested and Dimitra talking to the cops. "Mom what happened are you all right?"JD asked running over to his mom. "I'm all right I came out here looking for you when that fool came out and started to argue with me telling me that I'm holding up his business venture". As Dimitra told them what happened Rachel talked to her brother who was sitting inside a police car. "YOU THREATED HER!! Oh my god what are you insane!!"she called out. "I was trying to imitate her". "Well I don't think it worked considering you're seating in a police car handcuffed. Dad is going to have a cow when he finds out about this" she replied. After that incident Rachel went back to the restaurant. As Rachel drove her phone went off and saw it was Criss. She pulled over to answer. "Hey Criss what's up?"she remarked.

"Well I was wondering when you're coming back to Las Vegas?". Rachel blushed. "Christopher are you falling for me?"she asked with a bit of a giggle. "Let's just say you've taking a bit of my heart when you left" he replied. "Well I don't know Criss my work keeps me business and so does my family". "So does mine but I find time to have some what of a social life"Criss remarked. "Let me think about it Criss I just got so much on my plate right now. I'll call you back" and hung up. When she got back Mark and Jackson were talking. "Hey where's Donnie?"Mark inquired. "Where he always is when the family's temper problem comes into play" she replied sitting down. "And I thought The anger management classes worked this time" Jackson remarked sitting with her. "Before I forget these flowers came for you from a guy named Angel" giving her a bouquet of different flowers. Christopher she thought as she smelled them.

"So you did meet a guy in Las Vegas come on tell us about him"Mark asked. "He's a nice guy he's Lynn's brother in law. It was a blind date but he didn't know it and I got to say I had fun with Criss" she said smiling. "Rachel we haven't seen you this happy in a while". "Yea but long distance relationship don't really work out" Rachel stated. "Listen if this guy is this happy to send you flowers from Nevada you took a piece of his heart when you left so try it you never known he might be the guy dad always said that will take you away from this place" Mark replied. "All right but keep this between you two I don't want dad or Donnie to know. You know how protective they are of me". "Our lips are sealed and if you don't mind I get to break the news to dad that Donnie needs bail money" and Jackson left. In Vegas Criss was in bed playing a game on his laptop when he saw he got an IM from a girl name Diner Girl.

DINERGIRL: Christopher it's Rachel

SARAN42: Rachel how did you find out my screen name-Let me guess Lynn

DINERGIRL: -I guess Lynn wasn't lying when she said you have great mentalism. I got your flowers they were beautiful but where did you know where to send them-Let me guess Lynn

SARAN42: Actually I found a piece of mail from you on JD's desk at his house. Maybe when I come back to New York you can take me to your family's restaurant and I can take you to my place of business in New York

DINERGIRL: -That would be nice. I also wanted to tell you I'm coming back to Las Vegas in a few months for JD and Lynn's wedding anniversary party so I'll see you there.

SARAN42: Can't wait I'll talk to you later (log off)

[Veritas]

First of all, it's spelled "feud". Second, good job with the IM format.

[RACHEL02189]

A week went by and Criss decided to go to New York to surprise his mother and Rachel. At the restaurant she was taking a reservation as her father walked in. "I can't believe that woman saying Donnie threated her with harm". "Daddy I was there Donnie just has to learn threating people isn't going to get you anything expect a job with the mob maybe"she replied. "Now I know why your Uncle Tony loved you so much. I'm going to check on your brothers" and went to the back. Then Patrick came running in. "Rachel there's a guy outside asking for you". "If he's an officer I all ready paid that parking ticket" she remarked looking up. "No he drove up in a Viper I don't think a cop can afford that unless he's taking bribes". Rachel looked up. "Did you say Viper. Mind the stand" and went out. When she got outside her jaw fell to the ground leaning against the car was Criss. "Oh my god Christopher what are you doing here?" giving him a hug. "I thought I'd surprise you and my mom so how about I take you for lunch" he offered. "I would love to but I'm working Criss I maybe the youngest of this clan but I'm the one who didn't inherit my father's temper so I have to keep my brothers in line".

"Are you sure you're not Greek because I swear JD says something a little different than that once" as Rachel smiled. Then her father came out. "Rachel who is this guy?". "I'm Christopher Lynn's sister in law" he replied shaking hands. "Nice car who did you steal it from?"he asked. "Daddy"Rachel stated blushing. "Believe or not it's mine sir"Criss replied. Then Patrick came out. "Dad Mario just quit". Her dad was ready to pull out his hair. "That's the second person to quit in a week". "Daddy I keep telling you to let me run the staff not Donnie"Rachel stated. "I may do that if we keep losing employees"he replied. "Sir if you need help I don't mind I use to work in a diner with my dad when I was young" Criss offered. "Criss if you do I'll let you take my daughter out" and brought him in. In the back Criss was changing as Donnie came over. "So you're the new waiter my dad just hired I got to tell you I'm a hard ass and what I say goes". Now I understand why people keep quitting this guy is an Criss thought as he tied the apron around his waist. As the night went on Criss was doing a great job even helping in the kitchen when it got slow. After closing they all sat down.

[RACHEL02189]

"Christopher I have to say your father taught you well"her father remarked. "Even thou he passed away he always told me I'm a wonderful person" Criss replied smiling. "Rachel is the same way even thou she's the youngest she acts like she's the oldest instead" Mark stated as Rachel Smiled. "Well Criss since you did such a great job I'm going to keep my word and let you take out my daughter tomorrow night"he replied. "Wait a minute dad who's going to run the front?" Donnie asked. "I'm going to let Joseph run the front". "I should get going before my mom calls every police department in New York looking for me"Criss joked. "I see we have a mommy's boy here" Donnie said with a bit of a giggle. "He's very close to his mother Donnie and weren't you a mommy's boy. That's what Mark told me once"Rachel said. "I smell something burning" and Mark ran off as Donnie followed him.

"Let me walk you to your car Criss,"my father said and they went out. "All right Criss I tell this to all the boys my daughter has dated; if you try to hurt my daughter or do something that she doesn't want to do I will hunt you down and go Tony Soprano on your ". "You don't have to worry about that sire I wouldn't do anything to Rachel she didn't want to do. My parents didn't raise three boys to be bad towards women"Criss replied. "Those are mine kind of people Criss thanks again for the help" and he went back in. When Criss got back to the hotel he wanted to impress Rachel but not too much. The next day as Criss put his date together Rachel was working on the bills when Donnie came in angry. "I can't believe that woman!!" he said as Rachel came out. "What did that woman do now"Joseph asked as Rachel listened in from the hall way. "She put a restraining order out on me and construction has stopped on the restaurant. That woman needs to pay for what she's doing"he remarked as he threw a plate at the wall. Rachel got nervous and called her father about Donnie. "Thanks for the heads up sweetie" and hung up as Patrick and Mark came in.

"Why did you rat out your brother for?". "Yea Uncle Tony would put a hit out on you"Mark stated. "Guys we don't mention Uncle Tony around here" Rachel remarked. Rachel went to her car and left. After she left Criss showed up. "Hey Patrick is Rachel here?"he inquired. "No you just missed her but I think I know where she went" Mark stated. Criss drove to a cemetery as he drove in his hands started to feel clamming. Ever since his father's funeral Criss started to hate cemeteries and he always kept away from them unless his mother guilted him into seeing his father's grave. He saw Rachel on the ground next to a grave marker. He got out and walked up to where she was and saw it was her mother's grave. Criss just stood there with his hands in his pockets. "Donnie's fired up just because the place where he wants to build his restaurant has another place in it. I can't tell the family that I know the people who own it. I met a guy mom he's such a nice guy mom dad even loved him when he helped out at the restaurant. You would love him too. I should get back before Mark burns the place down,". When she turned around she saw Criss standing there.

"Christopher what are you doing here?" wiping the tears away. "I wanted to talk to you about something but if I-". "No Criss it's all right it's kind of my way of talking to my mom" she replied. Criss walked over to her and gave her a hug which felt good to her. "Come on" . As Criss was opening the door his phone was ringing he saw it's his Aunt Stella. "Aunt Stella what's wrong. Is she all right I'll be right there" and hung up. Rachel saw the panic in Criss's face. "Christopher what's wrong?". "My mom walked into a robbery in progress and she got hurt". She took Criss's hands as they shook. "Criss you're in no condition to drive let me take you". "W-h-hat about your car?". She dialed a number. "Daddy it's Rachel can you pick up my car Criss's mom got hurt and I'm going to drive him to see her. Thank you" and hung up. "Thanks". "Come on!". Criss got into the passenger side as Rachel drove the car to the hospital.

[RACHEL02189]

At the Luxor JD was going over some stuff as Costa and John came in. "So bro why in god's name did Criss want to go to New York for?"Costa asked. "Yea your mom is coming for a visit in a couple of weeks" John replied. "Remember Rachel, Lynn's college friend well Criss fell in love with her" JD replied. "I should of known considering he falls in love every five minutes" John said. JD slapped John upside the head. "Are you serious that Rachel stole our brother's heart" Costa remarked surprise. "Hook line and sinker but-". JD trailed off as he sat down . "Come on JD what's wrong with her?" John inquired. "I don't want to hurt Criss if he finds out" JD replied. "Don't tell me he's dating another Melina that will send Criss right up to The Luxor light and jump" Costa stated. "It's her family that's the problem" JD replied.

"What Criss dating a girl in the witness relocation program or worse the mafia" John stated. "You've been watching The Sopranos too much" Costa remarked. "I don't think she is it's just-". Before JD finished his thought the phone rang so he picked it up. "Hello". "JD it's Criss". "Criss what's wrong you should scared". "I got a call from Aunt Stella mom walked into a robbery in progress and got hurt" Criss replied. "How bad is she?"JD asked as Costa and John got up. "Right now they're doing a CT scan on her just make sure she didn't hurt her head" Criss replied. "Christopher I'm going to get on the first flight out there". "No JD I'm here I won't leave until I hear something"Criss replied. "All right Criss just call me when you hear something" and JD hung up. After JD hung up he ran his hands through his hair. "What's wrong with mom don't tell me it's her heart again" Costa stated. "Mom walked into a robbery in progress and they attacked mom to boot. Criss is at the hospital right now waiting on information".

"Who would beat up a seventy-five year old woman?" John inquired. "Drug addicts maybe" JD replied. At the hospital Criss was ready to climb the walls as Rachel came over with some coffee. "Here Criss" giving him one. "Thanks," as he sat down. "I wish the doctor would come and talk to me I'm ready to run up the wall thinking the worst". Then Rachel took out her phone and dialed a number. "Hey Jack it's Rachel is your girlfriend Stacey working in the ER today. She is thanks," she remarked and hung up. "Be right back" and went to the ER. When she walked in Rachel saw Stacey talking to another nurse. "So this where my tax dollars are going" she joked. Stacey walked over. "What are you doing here Ray don't tell me Donnie's temper got away again?". "From now no but my boyfriend is ready for the nut house. His mother was attacked and none of the doctors have talked to him" Rachel said.

"What's her name?" She asked. "Dimitra don't ask me how to pronounce the last name I keep butchering it"she said a little embrassed. "Here we go Dimitra Sarantakos well she just came back from CT no concussion. We're waiting on some x-ray and after that they're going to stitch up a laceration on her head than your boyfriend can take her home" Stacey replied. "Thanks Stacey I owe you" Rachel remarked. "How about dinner on the house" Stacey suggested. "If you want to eat on the roof-". "Very Funny Rachel"Stacey said laughing as Rachel left.

[RACHEL02189]

When she got back Criss was looking out the window. As she got closer she heard Criss saying something. Παρακαλείστε να ενημερώσετε το μαμά είναι εντάξει μπαμπά, δεν είμαι έτοιμος να αφήσει να αφήσει αυτόν τον κόσμο ακόμη (Please let mom be all right dad I'm not ready to let her leave this world yet). "Christopher," she said. Criss turned around as he wiped some tears from his face. "I talked to my friend your mother is going to be all right they're waiting on some x-rays but so far she has a laceration that needs to be closed". "Thank you" Criss muttered.

"I didn't know you spoke Greek ?". "I know a few words, sentences and some prays that my grandma tuaght my brothers and I. Do you speak another language" he asked curiously. "A little Italian My Uncle Tony told me that I was the only one in the family that wanted to learn how to speak in Italian" she replied taking a sip of her coffee. "Say something to me in Italian" Criss asked. Rachel was nervous she hadn't spoken Italian since her grandmother came to visit when she was seven but she decided to go for it and hoped she didn't screw it up. Tu sei il Mindfreak Christopher ma sarai sempre il ragazzo di una mamma (You are the Mindfreak Christopher but you'll always be a momma’s boy). "What did you just say?" Criss said impressed. "That you have to find out on your own" she replied smiling. Criss gave her a kiss as someone cleared her throat. Criss looked and it was his mom. "Maybe I should give you guys some time to yourself".

"No how are you Dimitra?" Rachel asked. "I just can't believe what I walked into at Monster Music" she remarked. "Well I hope they catch the guys who did this to you mom" Criss remarked giving his mom a hug. "Do you remember anything what they looked like or tattoos?" Rachel asked. "They were all wearing masks and dark clothing" she replied. Criss sat his mom down. "Mom until these guys are caught you're going to be staying with Lynn and Dimi" Criss stated. "What about the store?" she asked. "I'll call JD and see if he can help out" Criss replied. "Come on let's get out of here" Rachel suggested. "Good idea" and they left. As they dropped off Dimitra Rachel suggested that she'd pick up some food from her family's restaurant. "That's really nice Rachel thank you" Dimitra stated. "I'll be right back" and took Criss's car. When she got there Joseph was outside while Jack was running the front. In the kitchen Rachel was talking to the chef when her father came in.

"Rachel what are you doing here I thought you and Criss had a date tonight"she stated. "It was put off Criss's mom walked into a robbery in progress and got hurt so I'm picking up some dinner for them" she replied packing up some meatballs. "Sweetie you are an angel just like your mom so tell me is Criss's mom all right?" her father inquired. "She's fine just some stitches dad there's something that's been brothering me" she said. "What's that sweetie pie?"he asked. Before she could say anything Donnie came in and asked if he could talk to his father. "I'll be right back" and he left. After Rachel got the foods she went to say good-bye to her father. She got to the door and she heard them talking. "That lady fought back!!" her father stated. "Who knew a seventy-five year old woman could, but Randall knocked her out before we could finish maybe she'll sell her property now to us" Donnie replied. "Let's hope so" he replied.

Oh my god dad what have you done she thought as she left. A she drove to Lynn's house she decided to make a pit stop. She stopped at a club in Brooklyn. Before she went in she called Criss. "Hey Rachel where's the food we're starving here" Criss said when he answered the phone. "Very funny Christopher. I just have to drop off something for my dad and I'll be there so don't fill up on bread" she replied. She heard Criss giggle "All right" and hung up. She walked in and looked around as all the guys were looking at her like she was an alien. "Rachel is that you?"a voice called out.

[RACHEL02189]

Walking up to her was a guy that was overweight with some grey hair and a cigar in his mouth to boot. "Hey Uncle Tony" she remarked giving him a hug. "The last time I saw you was in your first communion dress your mother would have been so happy to see what you look like now. Please sit down" he stated. They walked over to a table as the guys went back to playing cards and darts "Uncle Tony I've got a problem and you're probably the only family I can trust with this secret". "What is it my little cannoli?" he asked looking into her green eyes. "Dad and Uncle Donnie have been trying to get a sweet lady to sell her property but she won't so Donnie broke into her business but she walked into it and they hurt her to boot. I heard dad saying that maybe after this she'll sell the property. I think dad was in on it" she stated trying not cry.

Her uncle looked very unhappy at this news his niece has just told him. "Are you serious your brother and father conspired to do that to a sweet lady do you know this woman?" he asked. "I'm dating her son Criss Angel" she replied blushing a little. Then a light blub came on in her uncle's head "Wait a minute is his last name Sarantakos?". "Yes Uncle Tony do you know them" she remarked. "I knew their father John I was friends with them. I was even his best man at his wedding to Dimitra. Wow Christopher became a well-known magician I can't believe I didn't put it together when I saw Mind Freak" he replied. "Uncle Tony you have to talk to dad before he and Donnie do something that may hurt or kill Dimitra or their business" she asked. "You mean that music store Monster Music" he remarked. "Yes Uncle Tony". "Don't worry my sweet I'll talk to your father and brother. Do me favor I want you to give this to Dimitra". He went over to his desk and took something out of his desk. He gave it to his niece.

"All right and thank you again" she remarked and gave her uncle a kiss. When she got back JD was there. "JD what a surprise to see you" as Criss took the bag. "This smells good Rachel let's see Stuffed shells, baked ziti, Dam look at the size of these meatballs I could bowling with these" Criss joked laying out the boxes on the table. After Rachel hung up her coat she walked over to Dimitra who was sitting on the couch. "Dimitra I have something for you" giving her the envelope. "What's that mom?" JD asked coming over. She opened and it was a black and white photo. Tears started to fall down Dimitra's face. "Mom what's wrong?" Criss asked walking over. " Nothing I remember when this picture was taking it's when your father proposed to me" wiping away the tears. "Who's the guy in the back with a cigar?"Criss asked as he looked at it over his mom's shoulder.

[RACHEL02189]

"That's Anthony Dellfeno he grew up with your father he was the best man at our wedding and gave your dad the money to buy the house when I was pregnant with you JD," she stated. "Wait a minute I remember a guy like this coming to dad's wake he said something to you in Italian and gave you a kiss before leaving" Criss remembered. "Tony had such a crush on me but he knew your father did too so Tony let your father have me but I knew he'd never stop caring for me. He even sent me my favorite flowers when I was in the hospital after my heart surgery" she replied smiling. We all smiled as I took a look at it. "That's sweet I wonder if he's still around" JD inquired. "Well why don't we eat before I fall over from hunger" Criss said as everyone made plates for themselves.

Rachel even made one for Dimitra. After dinner Criss went outside to think as Rachel followed him. "Not the first date you wanted". I'm sorry about tonight I'll make it up to you I swear" he stated. "Don't worry Criss I saw a side of you that I don't think a lot of your fans see how much you love your mom," she remarked. Criss smiled. "I should get going to check to see how my brothers did with out me". She gave a kiss to Criss and went in and gave Dimitra a hug. "It was nice to meet you Rachel"Dimitra stated. "It was nice to meet you Dimitra". Rachel leaned into whisper something to Dimitra. "If you want to see Tony I know how to get a hold of him". "How?" she asked softly. "My Uncle Tony gave me that and he still smokes those Greek cigars your husband always gave him for his birthday" as she left.
