The Lesson ( La Lezione)

Father Pio asked me: ” Where are you from? ” I wondered whether Father Pio could locate my birthplace just saying simply its name. I answered: ”I am from Pescara ”. Father Pio didn’t say anything but  thought of my answer and whispered it; maybe he wasn’t satisfied but I didn’t add anything else. I wasn’t so fine, he came near me and started speaking  with an accurate accent typical of my town. Everything was clear: not only he knew about my town but even its dialect indeed. I couldn’t ask him anything. Moreover I didn’t expect any answer that you can easily guess. Just this one is the reason of my witness.

THE LESSON

The Father asked me:

“ Where are you from? ”

I should  only say:

I am from Guardiagrele.

But is it clear enough?
