I lean back in the wooden chair as I smoke, thinking about what Stewart said yesterday. The conversation we had was not what I expected.
Flashback
"Yo mi nay come fi play dolly house suh hurry up and seh weh yah seh," I hiss.
Mi nah nuh time fi diss.
"I didn't come to speak about you killing my nephew..." He starts. Then what is he here to speak ab-
"Your father is alive Kevaun," He says. I hear nothing else. I feel like someone just hit me a brick. How? He died and I watched them bury him.
How the fuck him fi alive!?
"W-weh yuh mean him alive?" I ease up off the chair.
I am fuming.
All the years I spent, wishing he was here, fixing the shit that he caused, he was alive all that time. I look up at Stewart and he's staring at the ring on my hand. Why do I feel like something is missing?
This is just hard to believe.
"He contacted me when I was in america. Believe me, I was shocked as well. I don't know where your father is right now Kevaun but I can give you one thing-"
He hands me a brown envelope and I take it. I glance at him before I walk off. He stops me and says- "Diss is a dog eat dog world Kev. Don't let yuh guard down or yuh dead,"
My guard was already down.
Celest.
I sigh.
Ago leff dah place yah.
His words replays in my head as I make my way to my car. My father is alive and I keep asking the same question... How? There has to be-
Loud gun shots pull me from my thoughts. I look back to see a bloody Stewart on the ground. Quickly, I take out my gun and run behind a blue bin.
A wah diss?
I stare at where Stewart is laid down. Something is just not right about any of this.
"Bomboclaattt," I curse. I shot two men and they fall. Shots are still being fired and they are directly at me.
Running towards my car, I hold my wounded shoulder. This hot yuh fuck. I get inside my car then I drive to very first person I can think of.
My mother.

Brandon is staring at me. I can tell he's upset but mi nuh really care. He's just irritating sometimes. I told him something and now he's upset because of my decision.
Him always want everything guh fi him way.
"Ah. Do yuh ting. Mek sure when mi reach ova deh a nuh di same attitude yer," He hangs up.
I roll my eyes.

8:20 p.m.
Hey
I send a text to Kevaun. He hasn't been online for a while now. I wonder what's wrong with him. I rest my phone on the chair beside my bed. I need to sleep because I have school tomorrow.
I get comfortable on my bed before I finally clothes my eyes. Seconds after, sleep comes.
