Munich

Joe tells Nelly he will meet her in Munich, God willing. He has family there.

Nelly smiles softly and replies,
โ€œGod willing, Iโ€™ll be there too. Maybe itโ€™s time I met your people.โ€

Joe nods. โ€œTheyโ€™re good folk. My cousinโ€™s got a bakery near Marienplatz. We can grab some strudel, maybe catch a Bayern match if youโ€™re lucky.โ€

She grins. โ€œOnly if you wear the jersey.โ€

โ€œDeal,โ€ Joe says, laughing. โ€œBut just knowโ€”when I say โ€˜familyโ€™ in Munich, itโ€™s more than blood. Itโ€™s the people who helped us when we had nothing. Theyโ€™re why I made it out.โ€

Nelly takes his hand. โ€œThen I want to thank them too.โ€

Joe looks to the horizon. โ€œIf God wills it, Munich will be more than just a city. Itโ€™ll be a new chapter.โ€
