Hate Thy Neighbor (Completed) by ChantalAndrea01

⚠️Although not necessary, I suggest you read Torn first since this story references characters from that story and may contain some spoilers. ⚠️ Alicia Williams is a high-spirited, headstrong, and successful young woman who has worked hard in her career to buy her first home by the age of 30. Settling into the quaint, quiet neighborhood was supposed to be easy. Especially since her best friend Mia, lived just around the corner. Her plan was to introduce herself to her neighbors and build a friendly rapport with all of them. However, when she meets Noah McCarthy, she's flabbergasted by her (unconventionally) handsome neighbors crude attitude. He's a bad boy; there's no doubt about it. He's filled with tats, loves bikes, and has a complete disregard for societal norms and others feelings. This leads to a never ending feud between the two neighbors. The last thing Alicia will tolerate is disrespect! Eventually, lines begin to blur and these two enemies can't help but notice how attracted they are to one another despite the hatred they harbor and the differences in their personalities. Follow along the journey with Alicia and Noah as they navigate through their hatred, confusion, and their eventual love for one another.

Michael want's to break her out of her shell, and show her the World she is missing out on. During this time, it was unacceptable for black and white people to mix and if you were ever seen with each other, trouble would be brewing in the town, and everyone would stare and despise on you. Mr Sail is a white man too, who agrees that black and white people are fine to mix amongst each other. But he just pretends to the town that he doesn't approve, and keeps Michael as his lower assistant worker when actually they get on so well, just so the town wouldn't ridicule Mr Sail. Winnie and Michael laid eyes on each other when Winnie's Mother first went into the Local shop for dinner. That's where it began...
