Chapter one

Drakes POV
Returning back home on Sunday evening, 11:30pm. It's just two streets house, I noticed a car down the street with a person in front of it. I moved closer then I noticed the car broke down. It's too bad here by this time of the day. I decided to help " afterall I have some little knowledge about this type of car. "Hey what's wrong with your car madam, and what are you doing out here all alone". You shouldn't be here by this time, it's very dangerous here.

"Am just returning back from office and my car just started misbehaving so I had to park, please can you help me check it"

" well its risk here especially at night like this, but I just have to help her, I checked it and noticed the water cooler was already dry, so I tried to get water from the taps at the street. Getting back to her.

Then I saw some Group of gangs far. coming from the next street, we both laid down immediately, she was so surprised and afraid, well its wasn't surprisingly new to me so I don't need to be afraid. Few minutes after they've gone, we stood up and quickly pure the little water I found, she started the car and it engines worked. She can thank me enough, well I have to leave now, she beg to drop me off but I refuse she most leave now, " don't worry about me, I will be alright"

Getting home I checked my poket, so unfortunately for me I lost my wallet, " how could this be, I picked it up from shop when I was coming home, or did I forget it, in that stranger car. "Oh that's true, I lift my wallet in her car" . Am so careless, my stuff's are inside of it.

Lidia's POV

She got home safely has well, but she noticed a wallet on the other side of her back set. "Who's wallet is this" oh the man that helped me on the road, he picked is bag and forgot his wallet,

"She checked my ID for my information"
Name: Long Drake
Sex: Male
Age : 26
State: Taxes { Black America}.
Address and Contact."

She recognised my face, but she could not remember how she came about meeting me.

"A call woke me up early in the morning, " hello and who am I speaking with" . Please is this Long Drake? Yes and how can I help you"

"Am the Woman you helped last night on the street, when my car broke down. I found your wallet".

" Oh really am so grateful, thank you so much" . Where would you like to meet me, "ohk I Will text you right now with the time.

At first I couldn't believe I can actually still get my wallet back, because I was convinced over night, "most people will never call you they found your wallet, instead they will keep your money and other valuable items and dispose the rest".

I got dressed up and collect some changes from my younger brother who's also heading back to school, he gave me money for transport to my garage, I promise to return them back once I get my wallet.

My aunt, she's old and beautiful. She never had a child, she lost her husband two weeks after the wedding. She refused to get married to no man. Every morning and night she always advise me and my younger brother Peter. We moved to her place four weeks after the death of my parents. They both dead the same day in a car accident. It was so painful for me and everyone, but before their death, they always wanted me to make them proud, and I promise to make our family rich, just like other rich familys in this city. My dad love to hear that from me and his always happy about my promise. But even after his death I will fulfil my promise.

It's 6 pm in the afternoon, when i decided to call Lidia am already at the point, she said she would get to me in 5minutes, all I was expecting was to collect my ID card and wallet. Especially the money in it. Few minutes later she arrived,

" Hey thank you so much for keeping my wallet for me".

"It's nothing'

"Can you still recall back two years ago" I hope so.
The girl you saved from some thus at an incompleted building down the old town."

Yes I can recall, the girl I saved from her boyfriend who tried to rape her,

She I slept over at your place?

"Yep"

Am the girl************

Ohhhh really, Lidia right

"Yes"

"Your face has really changed, just in two years now"

So how are you doing , Drake?

Am fine, and am back to school as well. So how about your boyfriend,

Lidia's POV
" My parents never believe me when I told them everything that happened, and you won't believe when I got home the next morning I met him, at home with my parents. And that also make my parents never believe me.

They said I went to a friends home and I slept off , that I was just coming in the morning.

" I felt so bad about since after then he has been staying away from me"

AND YOU how is your girlfriend?

Drake's POV
GIRLFRIEND* well am too busy for that, all am doing is to make money and further my education and become greater in the future. She asked for my garage address and I gave it to her,

She promised to all ways visit me very evening at my garage,

Lidia visit me at the garage, every evening after she's closed from office.

We became friends and gist partners,

But she's so afraid to to tell her parents, she's in love with a black guy, who works on the street. The guy who saved her from Scott.

Lidia's POV

She knows her parents will never allow that to happen, either Scott or nobody is going to marry you.

Mom listen to me " either Drake or no body is going to marry me, because I don't love Scott , is Drake I love" mom.

You know you father will never agree with you to marry a black man, and he's not even as rich as expected. You can't marry Drake *********

Lidia felt broken, but what can she do to make her parents love Drake,

It's Saturday evening, Lidia and Drake meeting at the garage as usual. But Lidia looks so confused and worried,

" Hey , what's worry I have being noticing, you are not happy and am so consigned about it. What happened?

"It's my parents, they will never allow us to get married to ourselves."

But why?

" it's Because they don't like black people, especially those ones that are not really rich and famous."

That's all !!!

"Yes that's all"

Well if that's what they want for you, I think we should quit this relationship now,. Before its too late Lidia.

" No Drake I can't quit you, you are the love of my life, I love you so much like I never love before"

Wait , but we just met few weeks ago?

"That's true, but I fell in love with you the first time I saw you"

But Lidia we are not compatible, your family don't love me, and I don't want you to go against the wish of your parents, please.

"Drake I can't live without you, you've showed me love in another dimension of life. I love you so much,"

"I tried to talk but she kiss"*****************

" What just happened a second ago. I was speechless but in my mind I was saying alot.

This as never happened to me before,

"I then I held her from behind." And we moved closer.

I felt stronger and in my heart I will never give up on her.

*Light fade*

I got home very late after I spent much time than before with Lidia, my aunt was so worried about me, but my younger already slept off,. Getting in I greeted her,

"My son what took you so long today" am so sorry mama it's some little stuff, but I promise to never this again.

Ohkay my son, your food is cool now, and .......
Don't worry mama I will eat it like that.

I couldn't sleep over night, all I was just seeing was Lidia's face, I tried so hard to sleep but I can't. Then I accept the defect. I keep feeling the test of her lips, right now am out of my mind , and I need help.

Then I decided to call her, it's 2:30am but so surprising she's not asleep as well.

"Hello darling, what are you still doing till this moment, you should be sleeping by now"

No I can't

" Why can't you sleep"

My heart never allowed me to, when I close my eyes to sleep, all I see is you, when I open my eyes, all I see is you . My heart is captured. Lidia

Then She said " I love you" goodnight.

Ohh no, am in a trouble. My heart began to skip beat .

Then I know loving too much can lead to something else.
