I got a little place nice and cozy and most of the time English is there, him sleep there every now and then, still nah bother me at all.
I got a little space in a hair  salon. The salon was a big help and me gwan good because me can do hair good and the England dem love dash out them money on so elaborate hairstyles.

Sometimes the clutchers dem come give me clothes and shoes for just a hairstyle.

In two months I could pack barrel and send give my mother to sell from. Things a gwan good. English nah send on money, him start move side ways like crab but me nah put him on practice cause me and get care and me come a long way from Chulu days.
