Rayza's POV:

Death is not the greatest loss in life, the greatest loss is what dies inside us while we live.

We drove in silence as we arrived to the house.

Tears pouring down her face as she laid her head on my shoulder.

Still cyah believe manda a mi cousin dawq.

"Yuh good cuz?" I asked and wiped her tears with my thumb.

"Him kill mi fucking fada. How mi fi good?" She sobbed and turned her head to look out the window.

"Listen, the aim of this whole thing was to kill June skull suh mi nuh know why unu a gwaan suh." neko stated and shook his head.

"You neva gwaan suh when him kill your fada and yuh did younga. Me see when gun man come inna di house come tek mi fada 3 points and shoot mi pon top a dat an mi neva gwaan suh" he said in an attempt to defend himself.

"Yh neko but not everybody handle the death of a loved one the same" I explained.

"Well manda, hush but yuh fada did a one bad man weh do bad things and bad people nuh deserve fi live" he added.

She cried even harder and it started to pain my heart to see her like this.

Yes har fada deserve exactly what came to him but a still har fada and I could tell she loved him very much and him death really a fuck har up.

"Alright Neko enough, mi will dealid it" I stated and he walked out the car and went inside.

"Manda look pon mi" I said as I tilted her head up so she was now fully facing me.

"Now mi know seh whatever mi seh nah guh change the fact seh him dead but yuh cyah put yuh life pon pause just cause him nuh deh here nuh more. Eat, laugh an happy up yuh self cuz cause mi know a dat him woulda want" I said to her and pulled her into a hug.

"Yh?" She asked as she forced a smile unto her face.

"To be honest I don't even know why I'm crying, he is my step-father you know? But he treated me like I was his own and.....I don't know it just hurts" she said.

A dat shi call 'treat like him own' lol.

Wait deh- Suh dat mean seh wi anuh really cousin?? Thank God cause dat woulda just yack.

"Mi know mon but as mi seh yuh cyah really dwell pon it nuh longer. It's in the past now" I told her and placed a kiss on her cheek as I hopped out the jeep and went straight to my room.

Skylar please be here.

"Baby?" I questioned as I opened the door.

"Sky?" I called out again but she didn't respond.

Why mi even think seh shi woulda deh yah? No one stays so why did I think for a second that she would

I shook off the thought and called Neko.

"Yoo mi need a docta" I stated and looked at my fingers which were now covered in blood.

"2 step ahead a yuh don, mi already call him and him seh him deh pon him way" He said.

"Ahh, Thanks again killa" I replied and hung up

The pain started settling in again and before i knew it i collapsed and fell onto the floor.

"Bab- Jani" skylar called as she dropped her purse and ran over to me.

"Mi gov" I lied. I was in so much pain but mi neva waa shi a worry bout mi. Mi wish shi woulda jus guh dungstairs an watch two show or just guh out guh do sumn.

Mi nuh waa shi see mi like this.

"Jani stop pushing me away, you obviously need help and I'm going to help you. I want to" she said with teary eyes.

"B jus bill nuh. Mi gov" I stated firmly and pushed her hand away as I crawled to the bathroom door and bomboclaat dawg......the pain claat mi yff.

Never in my years of living have I ever felt this kind of pain.

WEH THE FUCK NEKO DEH WID THE DOCTA?

"June- I mean Rayza stop please" skylar cried out.

Wah?

"Wah the fuck yuh just call mi?" I asked gaining all the strength I did not know I have left.

She didn't respond.

"Skylar wah the actual fuck yuh jus call mi b?" I repeated and stepped up to her but she hid her face and stepped even further away from me.

I grabbed her arms, wincing at the pain I just felt......and lifted her head up to look at me.

The pain in my heart was at max level and I didn't know why.

Could it be the fact that my girlfriend/ lover/bestfriend/ woman I plan to spend the rest of my life with just call me the name of the man that attempted to kill me?

Nahhhh it couldn't be lmaoo.

Mi deven fucking tell har that man name suh how the fuck she know It, bredda a them things yah get mi grim enuh.

"ANSA MI BLOODCLAAT QUESTION NUH SKYLAR AND DOH MEK MI GET DAWK" I yelled.

"YUH EVA SEE MI A FUCKING CALL YUH NUH OTHA OOMAN NAME BREDDA?" I yelled again but walked away so she couldn't see the hurt on my face.

Kmft Ooman wicked yff.

I walked downstairs and opened the door, ignoring Amanda's questions completely to see a confused doctor standing outside.

"Kijani Smith?" He questioned

"A wah? Wah the fuck you waa now? Yaa slp wid skylar too? SKYLAR ONE A YUH NEXT MAN DEM DEH YAH" mi deven know wah gwaan.

One moment I was standing at the door with the doctor and the next I was in bed with bandages all over my body and a sleeping skylar next to me.

I carefully got up as to not wake her and went to the bathroom.

Mi look like a mad man yff. My waves were all over the place, dirt and dried blood on my body, my pants was raggedy and bredda mi feel like is a bombaat truck slap mi weh yestideh. Mi barely memba shit

But mi affi memba skylar calling me June skull name dwq.

"Hey baby" her sweet voice called out

Speak of the devil and it shall appear

"Cut the bullshit Sky, how yuh know him" I asked sternly as I watched her smile turn into a frown.

"Well i guess there's no use in lying since you probably already know-" she started
