"Bomboclaat... a wa time now dawg?" I asked my right hand man.

Somehow, mi mek him draw mi outta di house tonight an bring mi a dance.

"Just one o' clock bossy. A sleep yuh waa sleep already?"

"Nuh really enuh. Mi jus a meds seh a long time mi nuh stay out til dem hours ya."

For the third time tonight, di same girl walk past wi. Mi know shi a try get mi attention but due to how mi fraid a woman right now...

"Raassclaat..." Wayne said, waving his hand infront of my eyes.

"A wahmn man?"

"Di way yaa eye fuck di gyal yuh deven hear weh mi seh likkle while." He laughed.

"Wa yuh seh?"

"Mi seh if yuh ready wi can leff caa mi affi drop off mi daughter lunch money an ting."

"Oh fawud nuh."

As we left the VIP section, she came up to me and slipped a piece of paper in my hand. Just like I thought, it was her name and number.

Krissann

Yuh know di sound pan TikTok? Di one weh di woman a scream seh shi sick and bomboraassclaat tired a da place ya? Yeah, right now a suh mi feel 'bout school. On the other hand, some days, Andrew Holness singing "Nobody's gonna slow me down" is my mood. CSEC exams start next week and honestly, mi just want it come and done.

Thank God Kelly's coming back tomorrow.

I miss her so much. As much as I enjoy my own company, sitting alone everyday and having lunch is not it. Neither is walking to the bus stop alone.

I couldn't be happier when the final school bell rang, dismissing us for the day. Today is Friday so I have to be at work in four hours. On my way home, I decided to stop at Burger King and buy dinner for me and mommy caa mi know shi naa cook pan nuh Friday an mi worse nah cook.

A hope in deh nuh too full caa mi nuh waa late fi work.

"Mi raass... him find dem... Run wid yuh pickney gyal!" Mommy screamed at the tv.

We're eating and watching Enough on Netflix. I watched it twice at Miss Maxine's house; it's now my favorite movie. Though it's an old movie, mommy has never seen it so we're watching it together.

I heard the front door being unlocked and Denton walked in. I rolled my eyes in my head.

"Night." He greeted.

Mommy looked away from the tv and noticed his presence.

"Night." I responded.

He walked over to her and she puckered up for a kiss, which he gladly gave.

Yuck!

I checked the time on my phone. One hour and twenty one minutes before work time.

"Mi ago wash off an fawud." He mumbled against her lips before heading to the bathroom.

When we were both finished eating, I gathered both our garbage and went to the kitchen to throw them in the bin. As I turned around to walk back to the living room, I bumped into him.

"Sorry." I quickly apologized.

"Yuh good?" He asked me, staring into my eyes.

"Yeah?" I replied in the form of a question.

"Yuh buy BK yuh couldn't bring some fi mi.

Huh?

"Uhm..."

He chuckled.

"A trouble mi a trouble yuh man."

I forced a smile and proceeded to walk away. He walked behind me and him front brush 'gainst mi bottom. I looked back at him and he didn't say anything, he didn't even look at me.

Maybe a mistake an him not even realize.

I went back into the living room and told mommy that I'm going to start getting ready for work.

"Alright, mi aguh finish watch di show." She replied before refocusing on the tv screen.

I took a shower and went back into my room. After closing my room door, Denton walked out from behind my wardrobe. Mi frighten yuh frig...

"Wa yaa do ina mi room!? Mommy!" I screamed.

He covered my mouth and pushed me, causing me to fall on my bed.

My room door opened and my mother came in.

"A wa?" She asked.

When she saw her boyfriend hovering over me, the remote she was holding dropped, and so did her jaws.

"Den- Denton? Krissann!? A waa gwaan ya suh!?"

"Mommy him did a try force him self pan mi!" I cried.

"A lie shi a tell! Shi come out a di bathroom ina har towel and mi did a walk through di passage. Shi draw mi ina har room an lock di door an start draw mi dung pan har!"

"Bombaat... Mommy-"

"Mi know it look bad baby but yuh affi believe mi. When mi tell har seh mi aguh call yuh shi ball out an call yuh first!"

Bomboclaat... what a man lie an wicked!

"Mommy a lie him a tell pan mi! Yuh know mi would neva even tink fi do sumn like dat!"

She didn't say anything. She just stood there crying. She looked as if she didn't know who to believe and that made my head and my heart hurt. I can't believe this is happening.

"Denton mi cyaa believe dis..."

"Suh wul on... Yaa believe yuh liad wicked daughter ova mi!? A dem ting ya mek innocent man gaa- yuh know wa? Mi a leff outta dis place."

He stormed out and she cried harder. She gave me a look I knew all too well before leaving my room.

This isn't good... Dis nuh good at all...
