The Handsome Man's Deluxe Cafe (2014) - Plot & Excerpts
1 Ladies’ Detective Agency (15) CHAPTER TWO PEOPLE WITH VERY LONG NOSES MMA MAKUTSI opened the door to their visitors. “Mr. and Mrs.…,” she announced, looking at them expectantly. The man shook his head. “Not Mr. and Mrs.,” he corrected. “Mr. and Miss.” Mma Makutsi was unembarrassed. “Then Mr. and Miss …?” The man shook his head again. “No, Mma. I am Mr. and this lady with me is my sister only. We do not have the same name because—” Mma Makutsi cut him short. “Because your sister is married? Of course, Rra.
