CHAPTER TWO

Drake's POV

" I don't think I can continue in this relationship with Lidia, I don't want her to go against her parents wish, I don't want her to make her parents sad, and I don't want her to look disobedient. What can I do to make her stop loving me. If I space my self away from her I think she would forget me. I need to travel to a very far country to finish my studies, but where will I get those money from, I will need to work more harder on street." And I will also have to sell my garage because Peter needs some money as well.

Peter is my one and only brother, he loves to read, write and move around with is black friends, he's a black Nigga. He love to speak for people, encourage them , show them the truth, even when we lost our parents. He's attitude towards life never change, I love him so much. He's funny, always happy, always make me laugh with is jokey Face and funny characters. We are not rich but we are happy, and always happy. He's just 20years old and he's studying Law in the university of West American. my aunt and I struggled to race him up. And now is about to finish.

Bad things happen to good people the most

My aunt suddenly became sick, I and Peter took her to the hospital with the little money in our hands. She had some test and she was confirm to be having cancer. I felt broken what am I gonna do, my day to day job is not enough to sponsor the family feeding and not to talk of hospital bails now.

I will have to sell my garage as fast as possible, and use part of the money to pay her hospital bills, and use the rest to buy her drugs, that's all I can.

" She felt so bad for me because she already know she wasn't going to make it, but am not going to let her die this way, she's the only one left for us. Since our parents are dead, we have been living with her and this time am not going to let her die.

I will give her every thing it takes to make her survive, everytime I check on her, she always tell me not to sell my garage, because she's not going to make it, But this statement always make me feel so bad anytime she mentions that.

Lidia called me, " hey where have you been Drake" you won't believe me but " it's a real bad thing happening to me right now" and am so busy with it. But don't worry about me I will be alright. How are you doing?

"Am fine, Drake was wrong with you, just tell me. Anything"

Even if I tell you, it's just gonna make everything waste, so don't worry, I will be alright.

" Drake you are making me feel bad, Please darling just tell me what's happening to you, haven't been seeing you at the garage for the past four weeks now and you are telling me you will be alright, how do you expect me to be alright if I don't know how you are feeling"

Okay, I will tell you ,but not on the phone, maybe when next we meet.

"When are we going to see me again"

Later today at the garage, than we can tell better.

I return home, leaving peters and aunt at the hospital. So what's the plan, am going to call Lidia, immediately when I get to the garage.

" Hey Lidia Good evening, am at the garage now"

Okay. I will be there in few minutes.

" When I saw her coming from afar, there was confusion in my heart, " are you actually going to leave this beautiful angel just like that, because of little issues, you can face. and you thinking of raning away from her, no I can't" but ......... I don't deserve her.

" Every moment I set my eyes on you, my heart always skip beat, you are too beautiful, just like an angel.

" Thanks darling" what's wrong, with you darling. Tell me please.

"Yep, something really difficult for me. is actually happening to me and I don't know how to go about it. My aunt, she's sick and she needs so much amount of money to settle her bails, I personally need alot of money as well, and also peter need some money. So have decided to sell this garage and the car am about start building in it. So I can get much money to settle at least half of the bails. Then I can look out for new jobs.

" Like how much is the money you need?

It's really much, but I don't want you to bother yourself about it, I will be fine Lidia. It's about $15,500

" You have always been saying you will be fine, but where would you get this money from, Drake?

I don't know, but if I sell most of my valuable items, I should be able to sum up. half of the money.

" You are not going to sell your garage, Drake!".

Why!!?

" I will give you $10,000 now. in cash and tomorrow I will give you the rest".

You should have known I would never collect that, money from you Lidia.

" Why?"

"Please Drake because of the love you have for me, please."

Okay I will but I will return it back.

" No, you don't have to". Because I love you

I love you too.

She's kissed me again, I feel so power and strong to face what ever it takes to marry her. I love you so much darling, and I will never let you down,

You should never be alone, am always with you even when you don't see me, I'm always with you, and even when you go, I will wait for you to come back to me, because your love is true. no matter how long it takes you, but please don't keep me waiting for so long.

" How did you know my mind.Lidia"?

"Because they beat so faster than they should and I can feel them"
