Chapter 30: Her Question
On Sunday night Carberry's was closed, the chairs were up, and I was standing at the Molteni range in my father's flannel shirt.
I had never cooked on it.
Six burners, a brass plaque, and a flame that came on with a soft blue whoosh.
Ewan sat on a stool at the end of the pass with a blanket over his knees and orders to stay put.
"I could help," he said.
"You could sit."
"I'm a chef."
"You're a man with a hole in your side. Sit."
"Yes, ma'am."
He sat, with his hands folded, and watched me the way he'd once watched the pot of noodles.
I boiled the water.
I melted the butter, and ground the pepper coarse enough to crackle, and cracked the egg one-handed, badly, and fried it till the edges laced.
I put the bowl in front of him with two forks.
"That's your mother's," he said, very low.
"Gram told me the pepper."
"It's right."
"I know it's right. I'm a hygienist, not an idiot."
