Love Amidst chaos

Chapter 1 In Bensonhurst Bensonhurst, Brooklyn. Bensonhurst is a predominantly Italian-American neighbourhood in Brooklyn, characterized by tree-lined streets and a mix of residential and commercial areas. The community has a close-knit feel, with family-owned businesses, local markets, and traditional Italian bakeries contributing to its distinctive charm. Bensonhurst habours nearly all kinds of individuals, ranging from the good, to the bad, and then the ugly. They all form the formidableness of the hood. Bensonhurst is also known by it's inhabitants and and outsiders as the city of mafians with dreaded escapades in mafia business. Prominent in the city are the families of Don-Pedro Lorenzo and Christopher Dantes. They were so wealthy and influential, with Don Pedro's family topping the chart of most dreaded. They were Italian immigrants whose forebears had settled in the United States, centuries before, from Milan, Italy. Thus, they were Italian-American. It's 6:00am in the morning, at the Don-Pedro mansion in Bensonhurst. It is winter season, July 18th, 1990. A steward rings the doorbell of the room being occupied by Joseph, the young lad of age 21, son of the dreaded Don-Pedro. The steward rang the bell to remind Joseph that it was time to get out of bed and prepare for the day's activities. And so, Joseph got out of bed and hurriedly jumps into the bathroom for a bath. He then looks at his watch, hissed, it was 6:30 am already. He brings out his shirt and trousers, puts them on and scurried to the dining table for breakfast. At the table, the chef dished out his portion of meal into a gold coloured plate which was gotten on one of his father's trips to Dundee. It was his favorite and he so relished eating from it. The meal comprised of freshly baked bread, raisins, kebab and some dried breadfruits. In less than twenty minutes, Joseph was done with dinner and off he scampers, away from the mansion and out to Allan street. There he meets Scott his childhood friend scurrying out of a coffee shop.
