miss white. but that was no good. miss white is very patient and very nice, but she doesn't speak any Italian and Milena couldn't learn English.
but Milena probably wanted to work, the marshal though. how little couples understand each! And what was he himself doing? he was living away from his family in Sicily, in order to get more money. He hated it, but perhaps his family thought he liked it?
"So you were working very long hours to earn enough money to live on?"
"Yes, but I didn't mind the long hours. I love the city."
"but your wife did go out to work once, didn't she?"
"That was to work when she was ill?"
"She had to, in the end. We had enough money for the operation, but then I had to be away form work during that time. There was no money left ... and we knew... "
They knew she was going to die - and that, too, costs money.
"The one thing she didn't want was to die in hospital. About a month after the operation she felt almost normal again. They didn't do anything, you see. They couldn't. She said she wanted to look for a little job ... just for a few weeks, Then I could stay at home with her when ... "
So, in the end, she had escaped from the four walls of her home.
Cipolla's face was very red - the wine, perhaps?
"When did you last eat?" the Marshal asked suddenly"
"I can't remember."
"Today or yesterday"
"yesterday... I don't know... the day before, perhaps."
When Carabiniere Bacci come in quietly, he was surprised to see the Marshal heating a bog pan of soup. The little cleaner was sitting at the table with a bowl in front of him. There was a second bowl beside him.
"Marshal," Carabiniere Bacci began. 'they'd already taken the bag away, so I-'
'Sit down,' the Marshal ordered, and he began to put soup into their bowls. 'When did you last?' he asked Bacci.
'Last night, sir...'
'Here! Bread! Eat it!' And he sat down to watch them.
Carabiniere Bacci began to speak again. 'They'd already found the hole burnt in the bag, but the gun isn't there.
'Later'
When they'd finish, the Marshal took their bowls.
Then he come back and sat down.
'Do you mind very much, Cipolla, if Carabiniere Bacci stays with us? He's a good boy, a serious boy.'
'I can see that, Marshal. And he's young and he has to learn his job... I've caused a lot of trouble...'
But he was too calm.
'So, you needed the money because of Milena's illness. How did she come to work for the Englishman?'
'It was difficult to find a lob. Most people want someone who's going to stay with them, and we had to be honest. In the end I asked the owners of all the apartment building where I worked. Signor Cesarini was one of these owners. At first he said no. Then he that the Englishman's flat was dirty. He said my wife could clean it..'
