I could reach my pocket but it's my money I'm taking back. "B yaah pay di fair?" Shay ask Xavier. "Yea sure. Sara and Keke sen up the cabbage." Xavier said and they all passed the money to him.
Xavier is such a nice guy, he's 5'6 in height, dark skin, slim body and he's a footballer so you know how that go. We fought in grade 2 at primary school and him beat mi up but after that we were inseparable, then Shay and Sara moved to Ochi and the three of us became besties.
Sara was never really around us because she's a year younger but we still hang out. In grade six Shay started to mature and Xavier started to have a crush on her but was afraid to tell her, so he told me and I told him that he should wait unil we were finish with Gsat and have more sense.
So he told her in grade seven and Shay took a hole month to tell him yes. I was so happy for them. We were now coming off the bus and into Ochi hot sun, bwoy dem sun yah can strike uh.

She seh thank god." He said causing me to laugh. "Glad the two a uno a save uno self." I said and he look at me so fast I thought his head would fall off. "Nuh tell mi seh Shane did pop uh cherry." He said causing my eyes to widen.
"No! God no! I'm just saying." I said and he let out a sigh. "Thank God." He said and I rolled my eyes. "Which one a dem shoes yah uh like?" He asked me. "Nuh muss di Air force." I said and he agreed.
"One a them mi come buy to." I said as I take up my size 6 air force. We walk to the cashier and paid eight thousand each for our shoes and put it in our bags.
We left the store and head to the one our friends are in. "Mussy dat one naah guh look gud on you. Uh batty too big fi di dress. B if uh bend over uh go show everything. Guh put down dat b." Alex said to is girl.

"Alex gone soft man." Xavier said causing Shay to slap him. "Shut up. Abby come look pan dah pants yah." Shay said pulling me to the pants ile. "Go try dis on." She said giving me a pants.
