I park the car along the road where everybody else is parked.
As I'm perfectly getting in line a knock comes at the window.
"$250 park mumma...$250 and nobody no touch the beast" a random guy says.
I hiss and wine my window down gaining a better view of how close I am to the bushes.
*Cause you know girl kinda blind*
Blind bad...
"$250, me have change" he repeats his service offer.
"Me no have no cash pah me" I sneer, keeping my focus on lining mommy's car perfectly.
"Eyih!" Mariah's voice comes out covered in annoyance.
I glance back to see her handing him a $500 bill.
"Watch it twice as hard!" she says to him.
"Tanx mumma, cause you friend a front nah pay me no mind"
"She busy..." Mariah counters and with that he walks away, leaving us to annoy other people who are now trying to park too.
"One a dem man deh ever present" Lorelle laughs.
"And dem nah watch ntn enuh" I Iaugh, putting the car into park before shutting it off and exiting.
None of us know where the f*ck we are so we decide to follow the crowd and sound of the music.
We walk a short path to the beach and what I thought would be just a small beach party is actually a big event.
No wonder everybody dress so serious.
We make it to the entrance and attempt to get in but the security asks for our names or an invite.
*Huh?*
"We only got a flier..." Mariah says.
I stay quiet..
"Yeah a guy gave her the flier, he didn't say his name" Lorelle explains.
He looks at me raising his eyebrow..
*A wah?*
Me need fi ina designer or supm?
"Unuh have the flier...it's not a flier it's an invite..and it's one per person..so"
"Peppa!!!?" I hear Mariah's voice break the conversation open.
Then look how the girl store up the man friend name...she dangerous enuh.
I smile to myself at her determination.
The guy looks over in slight shock. I wave at him and he walks to the entrance.
"Ohhh a Chief people them elder...let them in" he says beckoning us over.
Mariah is the first to model pass the barriers, then Lorelle. I follow them closely after offering a 'sorry' smile to the security.
Peppa... or whatever him name...leads us to a small section for ourselves.
"Unuh a drink?" he asks.
"Yeahhh" Lorelle answers, handing me a surprise.
"Quiet girl from May Pen..yah drink?" he says looking at me.
"Whatever them want..." I mutter.
"Ah mah send ova a bottle girl and unuh say weh unuh want...put it pah Chief tab" and with that he disappears.
"Ahhhhh!!!" Lorelle and Mariah both shriek but I'm unimpressed.
We're only in a tiny corner with our own table nothing fancy, either way I'm here to enjoy myself without the prying eyes of people I know, not for the extravagant elevated section.
