Risk laughed, relieved that Rae understood and didn't ask any further. "If it's not my family, then it's someone else's."

"Born here," said Risk proudly, asking the bartender for another refill of whiskey. "Off the boat? You mean you're not from around here?"

"I'm from beautiful gorgeous Naples, big green hills, lots of goats. Bella Italia." She said with a huge smile. "I didn't speak a lick of English when I got here."

"Italy, huh?" smiled Risk, looking at her in awe. "And you came all the way over here? What for? Hell, if I was in Italy, I wouldn't leave!"

"Well it was my dad's idea really...just me and my brother made it here and well, my brother's gone now too, so I'm the only one left." Raven said with a shrug. "My dad made wine and he thought he could give us better by coming to America."

"People always think the grass is greener on the other side," said Risk, shrugging. "I'm hopin' you, at least, like it here, right?"

"There ain't no way I'm going back to the old country if that's what you're asking." She laughed.

"Close enough," laughed Risk, nodding. "I'd go just to see what it's like and maybe go back."

Raven laughed, "I can't do that, it costs a fortune to get there. Once I went I'd be stuck there."

"Which is why," said Risk, pointing at their glasses. "We're here enjoyin' ourselves at Irving Hall. It's the closest we can get!"

Risk smiled, finishing his third (or was it fourth?) drink of whiskey. "It's good to know there's at least one sane person around here."

"You think I'm sane?" Raven started laughing, "Oh boy..."

"I think you're a whole lot better than the ones I met so far," said Risk, chuckling softly. "They're either weird, scary or just way to have energy for their own good."
