Hello dear readers. I'm kinda new here so please don't mind my language and correct me in case I make any mistake.
Special thanks to Joyceline Yaa Asantewaa Jnr for the amazing cover.
Note that, the names of characters and towns or cities are all my intellectual properties , no hard feelings I guess so........ ENJOY!!!!❤️🥰😍💯Praise waited impatiently in the cab as the time for her job interview was almost up. The traffic on Mondays is undoubtedly crazy but the black SU car leading her cab was adding more to the traffic.
"Sir please can u blow a horn so they can move", she politely told the driver.
"Sorry ma'am this drive way belongs to him so I can't do that", the driver replied softly.
"How is that possible? How can one man possibly own such a big highway and act pompous about it!", Praise stormed.
"Miss are you new in Atlanta?"
"Yeah"
"I see cause u don't know the man we are talking about. That's KG's car, Lord of the Coberts street"
"Oh", praise said simply not having any idea who that person really was.Praise stepped out of the car when she couldn't take it any more.she walked to the car hindering their already miserable drive.she knocked gently on the back seat window to the right side of the car
Kelvin had buried his head in his phone when he suddenly heard the knock on his car. he looked through the tainted glass and rolled it down a bit.
"Ok so how may I help u",he asked sarcastically still on his phone without looking at her face.
"Sir please can u tell your driver to speed up cause I'm running late to work",she stated politely though very pissed at the moment.
Kelvin could not believe what he was hearing. That was the first time someone had the courage to say that to his face. Although he knew the cars which mostly come after his car were very angry but no one had the audacity to approach him yet he was still their respected loving god.Kelvin was tempted to look the girl in the face but he kept his cool. "You could have used another road to your work place but u unfortunately used mine so u have to bear with it", he replied with a grin on his face.
Praise burst out laughing causing Joe, his driver to join her. Kelvin raised his head to check what's going on.
" Uhm what's funny here?"
"You",she answered slowing down her laughter. Praise looked cute in her laughter which exposed her tiny dimples in her cheeks revealing her beautiful face. Kelvin smirked sharply and frowned quickly.
"Sorry?"
"KG or whatever they call you, though the street belongs to u yet you won't stay on it for the whole day so kindly move your damn ass car and let people pass. Because if u have millions to lay on, we have hundreds to make".Praise ended her speech receiving "woooow" and an applause from the random people passing by on the road side and the small crowd that had gathered to watch this scene.
The driver of her cab Praised her for her bold initiative cause after Praise left Kev's car,he began speeding up making the rest of the cars behind his happy cause it felt like they were no more part of the traffic anymore.
Joe kept on grinning after Parise had left whike Kelvin fumed in his car."Relax boss, I think the girl is right. People have always been cursing us each morning due to the way we drive"
" Just keep quiet and make sure u move as fast as you can!", He roared.
"Yes sir", he teased.
"Can't believe u are siding with her. It's our property u know and surprisingly I never expected such words to come out of her pretty lips".
"Oh u noticed that too"
"What do u mean, don't I have eyes"
"Of course u have but errm... It's the first time you are acknowledging someone's beauty apart from Granny and madam"
"Really?", he intentionally asked surprised at himself.
"Yep", Joe answered with a smile on his face
"Well.... That...that was a mistake", he husked and turned to his phone while Joe studied his face from the front mirrow as Kev blushes slightly but quickly puts on his serious face.
