"Mi feel fi change mi mind enu dawg..." I vent to Tedo, whose typing furiously on his phone.

"Gimme a minute deh, Mari... Yanique a hot up mi head..." Tedo sighs.

Everyday mi thank God mi nave no baby mother issues enu, might mi a 'dog' one would put it, in other words a manwhore–

Dawg, ya mek yuhself sound bad my subconscious says and I can't help but laugh to myself.

Yuh get wah mah try seh– mi fuck round wid whole eep a oman but one ting mi always ensure seh mi fuck di gyal wid boots so mi nuh go father nuh pikney mi nuh ready fah.

Even though mi almost come close to being a father once and I was ready to father that child but mi nuh ready fi get inna dah part yet...

"Arite mi deh ya now." Tedo tells me and I look at him knowingly and as if he reads my mind he shakes his head and says..."Everyday mi regret a fuck di gyal without boots dawg, mi nuh regret mi ute enu jus eh mother, coming like eh devil himself to bloodclaat." Tedo tells me and asks for my lighter to light his spliff.

Yes! we were currently smoking. Something we do when we're not busy... Who mah try fool? All when wi busy me and Tedo still find time fi smoke.

"Dawg jus so it go. Look pan it as a blessing in disguise. Wah big disguise but still wah blessing..." I tell him and he laughs, I join him in laughter.

"Yeah wah uh did a seh now..." Tedo says after we done gwaan like two big eediat. "Mah seh it coming like mi wah change mi mind." I repeat myself.

"Nuh badda wid eh fuckry badman, uh done mek Solomon guh fi girl already and mi know him probably all soon reach..."Tedo says trying to knock some senses in me, but me being the stubborn person I am, I start giving all the reasons why I shouldn't go through with meeting Zeniyah.

The main ones being I have no clue what I'm getting myself into, not having a clue who she is and what to expect.

Mi know Solomon wouldn't put me in something he's not sure of but I can't help but worry. And mah nuh smady wah worry miself. Anything a anything is my mentality but when it comes onto women I have a big caution sign that causes me to become worrisome.

Not just because you had one bad experience with a woman means all of them are the same...

Mi nuh need fi test out!

"Tired fi tell yuh fi stop wid eh bagga negativity and just see how it go nuh bredda... Yah tell mi all a eh reason dem y it nah go work but nah gimme none bout if it does work out... Yah nuh God badman... uh cyah tell eh future, Mari..."

"Mhmm... We'll see." I respond dryly.

"Come on, cause mi know Ms. Dee soon start call dung mi phone..." Tedo says outing his spliff.

Z E N I Y A H

Right now the only question that is clouding my head, is: What the fuck am I getting myself into?

I'm a person who has grown accustomed to planning, in order to know what, how and when to expect things to be done. Now, I have no clue what to expect.

Mi coming like lost sheep!

Solomon tells me that we're almost there and I can't help but fidget in my seat, nervous about the outcome of all this.
