Chapter 1

Love is a curious and mysterious mistress. Love for most people, can bring great happiness, while for others it can bring great pain and hurt. Love can come naturally to most, but it can also be an awkward commodity for others. Here's a story that demonstrates how an awkward love can bloom into something wonderful, into something tragic, into something human.
Meet Amya Lucas, she's a young beautiful entrepreneur riding on the boom of her uprising business. She on top of game, while she's coping with being a young romantic at only 23. She loved the concept and idea of love and romance since she was young. Throughout her life, dating has been catastrophic; dealing with many guys that have done nothing but hurt her and make her lose her faith in romance. There was one guy in her life that may have been the one, but he too has let her down. Luckily Amya has a big heart and a strong mind to keep her leveled for all these years. Amya's story begins when she's in the beginning stages of making a deal with someone from her past.

"Amya! Come on we can't keep the guys waiting!" a voice yelled from the bottom of the stairs.
"I'm coming Tanya! I don't see why we even agreed to going to a club for a professional meeting" She said as she applied eyeshadow to her eye. "We already agreed to have it at a club to mix things up a bit." Tanya yelled up the stairs. Amya groaned as she realized how right Tanya was about the arrangement. She put on her short, red, flounce and flare dress and her thigh high peep toed boots. She styled her hair with two semi thin braids going along the sides of head and left the back out as an afro. She put beads on her braids to add more style and modesty. Before she grabbed her things, Amya did one last check in the mirror. "Why did I even agree to this meeting." She sighed. "Amyaaa! Come onnnn! I dont want to be late anymore than we already are!" Tanya yelled. Amya grabbed her purse and coat then ran down the stairs.

"Come on, since you wanna rush people all of a sudden." Amya said annoyed. Tanya began to circle Amya, and sheclosely observed Amya's outfit. "What?"she said as she watched Tanya observe her. Tanya stood and stared at Amya before she could give an answer. Amy placed a hand on her hip and said "What?? Is there something wrong?". Tanya smirked at her and said "Girl...You are gonna turn heads in that club! Look at you! You look gorgeous!" Amya sighed with relief and relaxed a bit. She began to make her way to the door as groaned some more."Come on crazy girl." She said giving her a light smile. "Seriously? Not even a thank you?? I just said you look gorgeous!" Tanya said as she headed for the door. Amya opened the door and rolled her eyes at Tanya. She watched as Tanya kept complaining about how pretty Amya looked and how she continues to stay silent to her constant complaining. To Amya, she keeps smirking at Tanya and repeating"I know, I know" in her head. She is fully aware of how good she looks especially since Tanya has been telling her that for the last 14 years of her life. She continues to let Tanya ramble as she locks her house door and get in the car with her. They begin to their way to the club.
