Dom started his morning routine as usual. He took a shower, got dressed, poured himself a cup of coffee and climbed to the roof skillfully without spilling the coffee an artform he had perfected.
The sun was not up yet and he loved watching the sun come up from his rooftop.
Dom sat and looked around the neighborhood and his eyes landed on his new neighbor.
She was finishing up her shower and had her towel wrapped around her.
Her bathroom was in such a place that only someone from ontop of the roof next door could see in so there was no bathroom curtain up.
He sat and watched her.
"Okay you have to stop watching her." Dominic said to himself.
So he glanced around the area again and his eyes landed on the Stanford place.
"Yeah that will make you stop looking at women." He said to himself.
After the sun was up and he said his morning prayer and finished his coffee he went back into the house.
"Dominic your a pervert."
"Was there ever any doubt about that?"
"You need to stop spying on our neighbors."
"Well, first of all I don't spy on anybody, I go up there for privacy I don't go up there to spy, and yes I am a pervert but not for spying because I don't."
He smiled at his sister and sat the coffee cup down in front of her and grabbed a piece of toast and he walked out the door.
"If you want a ride you better get your butt in gear because I'm leaving."
Both Mias followed Dom to the car and got in. Dom dropped his daughter off at school and drove his sister to work.
"I wonder how Priscilla is doing this morning?"
"Oh she is fine."
"You spied on her too I guess."
"I told you I don't spy."
"Yeah you go up there and watch Mrs. Stanford take a shower and dress,whoowhoo."
"Do you want again today walk today?"
Both Mias giggled as he pulled out of the driveway
"Papa loves Priscilla,Papa loves Priscilla." His daughter said giggling.
"Papa and Priscilla sitting in a tree K-i-s-s-i-n-g,first comes love second comes marriage then comes papa pushing a baby carriage." Littla Mia said in a teasing sing song way. She giggled and laughed all the way to school.
"Alright get out of the car and go to school." Dominic said laughing at his daughter.
"I'm gonna get a new mommy." Mia said getting out of the car.
At Priscilla's
Priscilla had finished her shower and was eating breakfast when her cell phone rang.
"Hello Mom."
"Hello, my beautiful daughter, I was just wanting to make sure everything was OK."
"Yes, everything is fine."
Priscilla told her Mom about her neighbors and how they had invited her to dinner.
"Sounds like nice people."
"Yeah they seem to be."
"Well, my beautiful child I will let you go and do what you need to do don't forget my phone number."
"I won't Mom, I love you."
"I love you too bye."
With that they hung up the phone.
Priscilla moved around the house looking in each room so excited her first home and so far away from her family, it was so exciting but on the other hand it was scary too. She continued to unpack. She found her mind wondering to Dom. How handsome he was, and how strong he looked. His dark eyes just seem to look right through you. She found that she could not get his face out of her mind.
At the garage Dominic was having to hire new help all the time. No body wanted to work or maybe they just didn't want to work for him. He could be a hard boss but he knew what he wanted and knew how he wanted the shop ran.
"Do you know anything about cars?"
Dominic asked the kid sitting across from him.
"Yeah I grew up around garages."
"Good, I'll give you a chance, one chance, you screw it up, your gone, got it."
"Yeah I got it."
"Good come in tomorrow eight am sharp, not eight o five, eight am got it."
"Yeah I got it."
With that the kid left the garage. Dom was so tired of the lazy people in this world. However something weird was happening to him with every free moment his mind kept drifting over to Pricilla. Mainly her smile. Her innocence also was something that got his attention, most the women he had been with were very easy, it didn't take much effort if any at all for him to get laid. However he could tell by looking at this woman she hasn't been around much if at all. That really had his attention.
Priscilla was hungry and tired of being inside so she grabbed a map of the city she had bought and locked up the house and left. She drove around for about a hour when she spotted a store "TORETTO'S".
"I am so hungry, I'm gonna go in and see what they got." She thought to herself.
Priscilla parked the truck and got out and locked it. Walked in
"Priscilla how are you doing today?"
"Mia you work here?"
"Yeah me and Dom own it."
Dom was sitting behind the cage and heard Priscilla's voice he turned to look at her when he did they locked eyes. They held the gaze for a good ten seconds or so. Mia caught what was happening but didn't let on like she knew.
"Priscilla you remember my brother Dom right?"
"Yeah."
"Hi Priscilla how are you today?"
"I'm fine Dom and you?"
"I'm doing ok, been a long day."
"What can I get you to eat Priscilla?"
"Well, Mia I am really hungry so I will take a cheeseburger, with fries, a large Pepsi."
"All right that is coming right up."
Dom was sitting with his back to them acting like he was not even paying attention to them. He could feel Pricilla looking at him. It made him smile. He liked this cat and mouse game.
"Let the games begin." He said to himself.
Priscilla ate her lunch and talked with Mia not once saying a word to Dom but Dom could feel from time to time her eyes on him. Everytime he felt it he smiled.
"Well, Mia I'm gonna go, I'm gonna check out the city."
"Okay have fun."
Dominic and both Mias (Little Mia always goes to the store after school to help Auntie) got home around 7 PM and Priscilla was not home.
" I hope Priscilla didn't get lost."
"Well, I do declare Dom you do care for the Southern Bell." Mia said in her worst overdone southern drawl.
"Knock it off, I'm just hoping she can find her way home."
"Oh and back to you."
Dom just smiled at his sister then he reached over and pinched her side and tickled her listening to her giggle.
"Take it back Mia."
"No!"
"Take it back."
"No, I seen the way you look at her."
"I have too Papa,you love her,you want to kiss her."
Both Mias got away from him and ran into the house and upstairs and locked their doors.
Priscilla got home at 12 am totally exhausted. She got out of her truck and unlocked the house went inside and went right to bed.
