Olivia nodded.
“Did the bastard mistreat you? I could send your brothers after him to teach him a lesson.”
Olivia laughed. Her skinny younger brothers would have trouble intimidating a Chihuahua. As usual, her grandmother had chased away the tears.
“You just leave this to me. I’ll find a good man for you.” Eleni stepped back and tilted her head. “Did you like any you met tonight?”
Olivia groaned. “I’m not looking for a husband.”
“Of course you are. What are you, twenty-four? I had three babies by the time I was your age.”
Olivia grimaced. “I have a career. A master’s degree.”
“And I am proud of you. But nothing is more important than family. What did you think of Spiro?”
“Which one was he?”
“The very handsome one. He was dancing on my right.”
Olivia thought back, but couldn’t remember a man who stood out. They had all congealed into a greasy blob of testosterone. “I can’t recall.”
“He’s a good boy. Goes to church every week with his mother. Very nice body. Does push-ups every morning in his underwear. Not too hairy.”
Olivia cocked her head. “And how do you know that?”
Eleni motioned toward the telescope.
With a gasp, Olivia noticed the telescope was not pointed toward the sky. She rushed over and peered through the eyepiece. A whitewashed wall came into view with a large window. “Yia Yia, what have you been doing?”
She shrugged. “I’m old, but I’m not dead. Spiro is a beautiful young man. And he takes good care of his goats. You should go out with him.”
Olivia wrinkled her nose. “What on earth would I do with a goat herder?”
“Make little kids?”
Olivia snorted. “I can’t get married. I can’t even date worth a darn. It always ends up badly. I can tell when the guys are lying, and unfortunately, that’s most of the time.”
“We just need to find you an honest man.”
