Marco had been working endlessly ever since his father had passed the duty of manager on to him in recent years, a job he was more than thrilled to be given, of course, but one that came with a much larger workload and several more hours than washing dishes did, so it was certainly a job that needed getting used to. He had been in the position for a while now though, and therefore more used to what it entailed. They had just finished an order, a big order for a dance company who had come to Italy for a competition. Marco hadn’t the chance to get a proper look at their table, but dancers made him think of Bo every time. He wondered if, in the biggest coincidence in the world, Bo may have been amongst the dancers, but he knew it was extremely wishful thinking. There were like, a million dance companies from all around the world. Why would it be Bo’s dance company here, specifically, in Marco’s restaurant?
As he sat down for his break, to have a meal himself, he thought about how Bo had seen the restaurant before, but they had renovated since she saw it last, so she wouldn’t know that this was his restaurant, would she? Because if she had known, she would have come to find him straight away, he guessed. Or maybe he was being too conceited. Maybe she had come here, and she just didn’t know it was Marco’s restaurant. Maybe it was her dance company. But, no. That was too much of a coincidence to actually happen. Or maybe it wasn’t, because a minute or so later, a girl sits across from him. A girl who looks like Bo, who sounds like Bo, who smiles like Bo, who is Bo, and Marco knew because he knew her so well. She smiled, and he did too, wide and bright, his eyes brightening as he stared in mild disbelief across at her. “What are the chances of this, eh?” he said with a grin, his voice steady but his mind still not fully believing it was her. He leans across the table, kisses her cheek and pulls back again, his smile still ever present. “Wow,” a laugh, “this is, ah, unbelievable.” He goes silent for a moment, takes everything in and asks, “what brings you here?”
