Sophia's face was filled with joy. She sat beside the man she called Sir and signaled to her assistant to pour them the best wine. The waiter nodded respectfully and immediately closed the cafe door and put a "CLOSED" sign on the window.
Soon she returned with one bottle of the most expensive wine they had and three glasses. Deftly, she poured wine into each glass.
"This is our best wine. Please enjoy it," she said with a smile.
"Thank you," Sophia nodded at the two guests and raised her glass. "Cheers!"
They drank in silence for a few moments. This made Sophia curious. She wanted to know the purpose of their coming to her place.
Also .. she had met the man several times, but she had never seen the young man with him. Who was he? she could only wonder.
After a long silence, Sophia finally dared to ask.
"How's my niece? Is she all right?" Sophia asked nonchalantly. "She must have grown into an adult woman by now."
