He bends asking Pink to climb his back, she happily climbs his back.Jude is chatting with Lydia and Ann, they all happily walk down the road. Kim pass by in her car, she looks at the rear side mirror carefully studying Nathan's face. She stops beside them whining down her car glasses. "Good evening ma." They all greeted Kim in unison. "Evening. Please is there any ATM machine close by?" Kim asked, looking directly at Nathan. "The closet ATM machine is the one around my area and it's quite far from here. Are you new in town?" Nathan gave her a warm, welcoming response. One that melted her and made her heart smile. Kim smiled. "Yes I am. Please help me. I don't mind giving you and your friends a ride." She offered. "Come on in, I will drop each of you in your homes." Pink looked at Kim in suspicion, then whispered to Nath

CHAPTER SEVEN. "Who was that man that dropped you and your friends?" Nathan questioned. "Oh, that..." Pink smiled. "Yes, that.""He is Ann's boyfriend's driver." Pink innocently said."Oh."Pink looked directly in his eyes. "Someone can be jealous?""When it comes to you.."Pink interrupted. "Says the guy that flirted with almost every female that came to buy from his stand tonight. You think I didn't notice?""I was only being nice and friendly.

He slowed his pace when he noticed Kim's car parked in front of him.Kim whined down, "Come on, get in!" She said.

"Just a terrible unlucky day." Nathan said dismissively. "How have you been?" "Not bad. I'm alive." Kim replied casually. "
