The rain was pouring heavily at this part of Brooklyn with people running left and right, trying to dodge from its splashes. Others had umbrellas with them but still went to a corner to avoid the cold.Nicholas however, had a target and he was almost done. Delivering goods for people was his part-time job and he was nearly done for that day. "I'm so drenched and tired," he muttered to himself as he brought the motorcycle's engine dead and stepped down.A huge man in a gruff voice was the last customer and he quickly brought out his package. The man was in front of a hotel."Hello sir, here's your package." He said to the man, handing him a brown cartoon. "Look at you fool! It's raining heavily and you still wet all my goods!" He yelled at Nicholas."Sir, I'm sorry but the box isn't ruined at all. I've kept it inside the rain proof bag." He was showing the man the bag but he tore it to pieces and stepped on it."How dare a low delivery man like you speak back to me! I will report you
As Nicholas went out, he smacked his lips bitterly and shook his head in disappointment. Maya was supposed to be that only woman that was loyal. And now, she could do that to him?

Mal said.A half smile worked its way over to Nicholas face. At least he had friends who cared about him. "Maybe you can head back to work. The place is open all day so you wouldn't mind sleeping there for the night." Mal said.Nicholas shrugged. "You know how my boss is. I doubt he w
Nicholas was taken aback. He had not expected that man in his expensive attire, living in such a big mansion, to respect him in that manner.That was when he paused to take a look at the men who had abducted him. Though two of them, but strong and mighty they were. Their bodies were built just to intimidate and they were putting on dark suits and shoes and glasses, like spies from movies he used to watch."Young master, please come with me." The older man said again. Nicholas turned to face him again, still shocked. "Who are you? Who is this young master you're always speaking of?" He said."Please come inside. Our boss wants to see you. I am sure you would be delighted to see him too." The man said. A warm smile rested on his face and Nicholas frowned.Did he really even have a choice? He followed the man inside and was even more wowed.The entrance led to a grand hall with brilliant lighting and fine decors. Then he was led to the living room, and Nicholas began to doubt whether h
