Chapter 5

"But wait D yuh a harbor foreigner up yah an naa tell nobody man. Look how long mi nuh see or hear from dem people yah!" Redz said with equal excitement.

"Weh Macky deh? Mi know unuh nuh travel too far without eachother enuh the chair caa lef the batty." Belle said letting go and looking to see if the long mawga red skin boy was anywhere near.

"Him stop down a him woman enuh an mi nuh like her sister so mi tell him say mi a come up yah him fi call mi when him a pass." He replied sitting down on a a tree stump in the front yard.

"Den him an deh gyal deh still a deal, after she diss him up so wicked fi papa?" I asked taking a seat on the front step.

"Mi say D nuh bother talk, mi tired fi talk to him enuh. The girl not even respect him in front him face enuh." Redz said in clear frustration.

Of course Macky was like a brother to him, they been inseparable since birth.

It must have affected him some way to see and hear firsthand how his "girlfriend" would treat him.

But as much as he and many others including his sister,mother, me, other friends told him and even seeing it for himself, he never leaves her.

They argue, she diss him, tell him about all the rich man weh she fuck and all that, they break up for a while.

Next thing yuh know a the two a them yuh see a hold a hand walking down the hill like nothing happened.

"Mi memba the time mi an her fight down a road because she a kiss man infront Macky an have the boy a diss him." I reminisced laughing slightly.

"Yes mi memba!" Redz exclaimed. "When him aunty keep the bingo party".

"Yes that same day." I continued. "After she carry man from Ochi come an a diss the boy infront him people them. To how Macky look like him go in go bawl an come back mi did affy go tump her man. She did too out of order."

"Wait Deja, a who yuh fight? A who a Macky woman? Who unuh really a talk bout cause mi lost as fuck." Belle asked looking confused as ever.

"Nuh Pastor Beecher daughter man. Dem start talk inna grade 11, mi not even know how dat come bout enuh cause Macky nuh normally deh wid brown girl." I explained.

"Suh a how comes them start talk?" She asked.

"A that a the ting I don't even know. Mi know say one evening when we a train mi see her sit down a wait pon somebody. But true mi know she stay mi never did a too medz it." Redz started holding his chin and folding one arm.

"So we train an done now an the man dem a eyes one another a wonder a who a go bang dat inna the evening same time Jay bawl out 'mek sure unuh nuh leff unuh rubbers enuh cause dem girl deh foot nuh stay lock'. Nuh the man mi see go over deh go buss big kiss pon mouth. Mi say the way mi shock mi  not even stop walk, mi jus....."

He couldn't even continue cause a the dutty ole laugh that Belle let out.

"How yuh mean yuh nuh stop walk Redz, how that work?" She asked knowing that he could be a little over dramatic and exaggerative at times.

"A yard we a go B, n him did a walk ahead so when him reach an go buss big kiss mi nuh bother stop or ask mi jus walk like mi nuh see him. Mi genuinely did think supm wrong so mi wait til the next morning mi go over deh an ask him a waa gwaan. Him a say him go volunteer over church an them start talk an him get fi know her an rate her." He said looking upset all over again.
