What's the worst thing that has ever happened to you?

[Please, go into detail. Hearing about the misery of others is a bonding experience for him.]

How did you handle it? Did you get revenge? Could you get revenge?

what OF COURSE it was an accident!
why would i burn Massimo's boat on purpose?!

i knew i was messing up a lot
people were complaining about my deliveries
i exploded a can of tomato sauce all over the kitchen... and Massimo... and his cat...
im just... not good at a lot of stuff.... ha.


[ Would definitely never say this were he not under anonymous, oh man. Though... frankly his identity is probably already gonna be pretty clear, especially once he meets Xiao Xingcheng. ]

anyway
i wanted to make up for it and impress him
im a GREAT fisherman like the best in the world except for Massimo ha
so one night i took the boat out alone so i could make a huge catch and surprise him
but... the lantern fell over... and the fire started leaking......
i managed to get the boat to shore
but when Massimo saw it burning... he didnt say ANYTHING.

thats when i packedup and left.
but he stopped me.
and we talked.
then we fixed it.


[ This got far more emotional than Alberto intended, even though it's just straight details. There's obviously so much more meaning behind the bare facts, unspoken but surely crystal clear. One short story can speak volumes; he learned that from Massimo that night, too. ]
