Chapter 2

Editor's note: Her name was Mia. In Italian, it means mine. I don't know if Mai is a real word, but it wasn't the name of Dominic's sister.

Dialog should be spaced out so that each time the speaker changes you start a new line.

Pretty thin on plot and writing skill. I appreciate all the reviews! Thanks I'll keep that in mind I was just writing an introductory chapter anyway the plot will thicken and hopefully people will still enjoy! 

AnaDry Again thanks! I'll keep trying to update these as much as I can! I appreciate all the reviews really!

"He said his man would pick us up." Roman said. "You're seriously considering this?" I asked him dumbfounded. "I bought you here with me didn't I so you're considering it to and here it's easier to evade the law with crooked cops working for big guns if you know what I mean." Roman said. "I don't know brah." I said. "Oh come on B don't chicken out on me now." Roman said. "What if I'm able to find Mia." "Christ Brian for the last time let her go! She's gone. There's nothing you and I can do about it. We'll find you some nice Japanese pussy aight?" "I can't just forget about her man." I said. "Well try harder because you're not messing up our deal." Roman stormed out into the lobby of the Hotel room.

Reluctantly I joined him downstairs. I was becoming increasingly moody and unfair to Roman. Stop it I told myself. Just for once please stop it. "Yo are man's here." Roman said. "Are you sure?" I asked. " Who else would have a car like that it's meeting time. Now B is your head out of the clouds yet?" He asked me. "Yes."
A black dude with dreads and brown eyes pulled up in a neon green Volkswagen Touran I shit you not. I almost laughed but decided not to. The dashboard had fuzz for Christ sake but this could mean a job for me and my bro Roman so I kept my mouth shut. Riding passenger was one of the most beautiful women I had ever seen. Okay she was nothing like Mia no one could come close but damn she was fine. "I'm Neela and this is Twinkie. You'll work for our boss delivering packages when he says to. You'll be given a trial run for a month and oh yes you'll need transports." Neela said. "I'm liking this already Roman Pierce." Roman said shaking her hand. "Neela I'm the Drift King's girl. Get in."

We obeyed. I slid in the back seat the fuzz was annoying but Twinkie was a man who obviously enjoyed his ride and had it good with the boss. We walked into a crowded Japanese bar. People stared and whispered at us. Twinkie led us to a white boy. Neela scooted next to him in the booth. Twinkie motioned for us to sit next to him. I kept watch on the crowd. An old man surrounded by a dozen men all with hidden arms no doubt seemed to be watching us just as carefully as I was watching the crowd.

"So you know my man Tej." He said. "Yeah I know him how do you know him?" I asked him. He folded his arms. "When my mother and I lived in Texas Tej lived there with me. He was running a coke business that got busted on by the cops by my mother so Tej had to pack it up and live the good life in Miami." He said. "Nice of your mom." "Yeah well she never did understand my fascination with cars my father a little better." He said. "Every time I showed up to my fathers house he called the cops." Everyone laughed. That anecdote usually worked. "So you interested in working for me?" "Hell ya man." Roman said. "Best friend a guy good ask for." I said. Roman nodded. "All right tell you what there's a little party going on down at the place we always have one. My boss will want to make sure you're worthy of a business transaction with you." He nodded to the old Japanese dude. "I'm Sean but everybody calls me DK." "What for?" Roman asked. "It stands for Drift King." Sean said. "Drifting what's that?" Roman asked. "I thought Tej said you knew everything about racing man." "No that's Bdawg over here." "I don't know how to drift." I said glaring at Roman. Why? Why did he always have to open his mouth. "You boys are in for a real treat then. You like the quarter mile?" Sean asked me his hick accent starting to get to me a little. "Yes." I said. "You just hang out with Twinkie he'll be you're guide for the city and tonight well you'll learn what drifting is all about my American friends." Neela grinned. "I'm going to race." "If you wish my love. Oh yes we have to hook you up with your cars. You drive for me you have to look good."

We ate a quick dinner then wound up driving to an empty parking lot. Well, not quite empty. It was almost like home except there were more Japanese then Americans with nice pimped out cars. Sean stood next to his ride with a crowd of people who worked with him including Neela. She was talking to an American chic who looked clearly at home. She smiled at me. "Is she taken?" I asked unfortunately allowed. "Not yet but rumor is one of these boys might know where to take her if you know what I mean." "No what does that mean?" "Hey I think you got competition." "Hey now!" I protested. "Well B you opened your mouth."

Sean introduced us to a blur of names. I remembered the girl though her name was Kerri Simpson. She was single thus far. I was surprised she hadn't been snatched up but as Twinkie said yet. A little competition might do them some good. Neela and she seemed to be good friends. So I'd have to get in good with Neela to get to know her.

Believe me I had not forgotten Mia but maybe Roman was right. I mean I tried to contact Mia a bunch of times. She never returned my calls. "All right ladies and gentlemen these two newbies need a lesson in drifting. They're racers but they've never done before. So first they're gonna watch what is it Twinkie?" Sean asked. "Someone wants to race the DK tonight." "Oh yeah well I'm not racing. tonight. You know that." "I know but he was a friend of Han's." "Bring him over here."

My heart skipped as Dominic Toretto walked over to Sean and shook hands. "Race for pink slips?" He asked him. "You know him B?" Roman asked me. "I might." Dom heard me. He walked over to me and socked me one right in the stomach. Several girls looked surprised. Neela looked amused. I couldn't read her friends expression but that may have been because I was also slightly starting to see stars. Dom has a mean punch. I punched him back in the jaw. He looked surprised. He punched me back.

"You bastard! You left her and she was pregnant." "Who?" "WHO? YOU MEAN YOU'VE forgotten her already? Asshole!" Dom punched me in the stomach. "Did you just say she was pregnant." I gasped. "I liked the way you sound surprised." He stopped punching me. "She didn't tell you?" "Tell me what? We haven't been in contact at all she blocked my cell or changed hers refused all mail from me with big fat return to sender now what's this about being pregnant?" I demanded.

"You're Dom?" Roman asked. "Yeah who are you?" Dom asked. "My best friend Roman Pierce." I said. "Best friend huh I thought I was yours." He punched me again. A couple of guys snickered. I punched him back. "Now can you two talk like gentleman or what?" Neela asked stepping between us.

"This asshole got my sister pregnant and left her." "I didn't know she was pregnant she stopped talking to me I even came by the house but you had left her and she was pissed off at me." I said. "I sent her money." "That's not what she wanted." "No she needed the father of her son there." "I have a son." "Yeah and he looks like you." "What's her cell number? Will she answer." "I'll make her. Hold the race we'll still do it but next round." Sean nodded.
