Maserati's POV

Grand Pie hotel is spacious. It has more mirrors than concrete on the walls where hangs massive white and blue curtains.

The chefs are seen in the big kitchen working on various meals as the air around says it.

Waiters are all in black and white and as soon as we sit down, there's one who comes by with a well thumbed notebook and a pen to take our orders.

There is quite a number of people in here and they all seem to be distracted by us.

I guess its because of the four guards who are standing behind us.

I wouldn't know what to order in this type of hotel. I mean, I've never been into a five star before and this puts enough pressure in me.

She orders something that I've never heard before and I can only say 'likewise' which I does because I can't trace anything familiar in the menu either.

When the food is brought, I'm shocked to see some French fries, chicken casserole, sausages and a glass of juice with a lemon and a small porcelain as a saucer. The juice has some umbrella above a plastic straw. This is a dainty brunch.

We begin to dine.

I can feel her blue eyes on me all the time.

" So, have you decided to forgive me?" She starts.

"Forgive you what"

" Well..about me framing you of the rape"

She's annoying. Just the thought of it has my forehead filled with furrows.

"Why would you do that in the first place?"I growls.

She sighs.

" It was the only way to get you out of there,"

"What? Are you high?"

"No" she put her lips tightly pressed together " what would you have said ? You could have been arrested over something else"

" And you thought rape was a lighter crime?"

"Not exactly but dad knows me. He knows I can do anything insane. I had to do it then go after him. I told him you were my boyfriend and I sneaked you in, in my car's boot"

"What? you told him I'm your what ? Why would you do that?

" well I had to make it look real and..."

"And what ?"

"I like you.."

What? She likes me? How? I'm just a jobless university graduate who have lost hope in life. Or she thinks I own this suit I'm wearing. Maybe its her fathers. This can make me burst out in laughter. I have to stop thinking about it.

"You do?" I raise my brows.

" I like you boy...you're freaking hot,"

She has a great body and I would love her if she would give me an honest chance but I hate it when girls approach me. I can't tell whether she's telling the truth either and she knows nothing about me.

Enough

" I work at a garage Mercury," she pulls her brows together then pulls them up.

"So what? " she snaps.

"So I'm basically jobless and you know nothing about me. You don't like me either but I can tell you whatever that is. Its called lust..."

"Stop it..." She cuts me off," I'm not insane. I have more than enough cash so I'm not asking you for money. I want to know you and to date you. That's all"

"What if your dad notice this?"

"He already know you're my boyfriend plus he has no right to tell me who I should date" she says.

"Okay fine, but I need time to think about it," I say before I can stop my mouth from talking.

"Okay give me your address," she whispers .

"What ? What for," I asks her.

" I can't reach you out through my phone. They trace any signal that leaves and enters in the statehouse. Your address is the only thing I can use to get to you,"

" Okay Drankee highway, Ford hall road, Marood street, Tunini garage " I pout as she types in her phone.

                             *****

When she leaves, I'm still disturbed by her words...well request. As I go to the bus stop, I still cannot find a way of believing her but I have a thought. To try it anyway. She could be real and I don't see anything wrong about it.

Sooner I'm at the garage and Maich drops his spanner on the ground when he sees me.

He come towards me...no jog.

"Hey buddy, look at you. Where the hell have you been?" He asks.

"Its a long story, how about tonight as we take our beer and I will tell you about it,"

He stares at me maybe trying to think what could have happened.

" Sure ," he says.

"So where do I start?" I ask as I throw myself in some red apron.

" The white van yonder, its a wiring problem," he says.

" Hey..Fare Fox was here.." he informs.

Fare Fox? Oh I remember him. He's Ace's right hand man.

"What did he say?"

" He said that Ace accepted you to work for him. He said that you meet him at the Caribbean exactly four pm tonight,"

"He agreed? " I ask in surprise.

"Yes," he clench his jaw, " you know Ace is a devil,right ?"He snaps, honestly worried.

"Maich, we've talk about this many times,"

"Yeah I know, I'm just worried about you, "

" Everything gonna be fine brother," I say with a certain assurance even though to me, this is like sailing in the dark.

"I hope so," he pouts.

If he accepted me, then there's some light in solving the puzzle behind the death of my family.
