She puts her face right near mine and starts talking… and I’m thinking – this sounds like Italian.<\/p>\n
I look at the customer’s wife for a hint – “I’m sorry,” I say. “Can you help?”<\/p>\n
She confirms it’s Italian and says I’m being thanked for being so nice and patient. Awww. I ask if she can tell me how to say thank you? Prego! <\/p>\n
