R.I.P. Ms. Tortech. What a terrible time for Italian supercentenarians. 😔
When the young commander of the guard declared his love for her, she rejected him simply because his frivolity startled her. "See how simple he is," she told Amaranta. "He says that he’s dying because of me, as if I were a bad case of colic."
