Malikai cont.

Watch dem to nuh.

She in her all-white two-piece swimwear with a blue, sheer shawl. Hand in hand with Biggs, who was shirtless wid a Cuban Cigar in his mouth and a pair of darkers on.

"Boss man, yuh deh pon a likkle vacation I see!" He tried to click fingers but I left him hanging. Tilting my head at them, I avoided her gaze, focusing on this likkle fool in front of me. Him look offended but just nodded. "Listen, Evans a neva nothing planned. But yeah, me and she been dealing."

Mmmm.

"Mi nuh business bout that, where my care lies is in the principle," I nah smile wid him, but mi nah screw either. I'm annoyed and perplexed. "Why my business partner feel like him did affi go behind mi back and fuck mi ex, have me a think what else dah bredda ya capable of. Wah else you a hide..."

Him know the code already. You operate like a suspect and you become one, no questions asked.

"You and I both know tell you or nuh tell yuh, you wudda pree me, "Biggs shrugged. "Meeda tell you eventually though, but yeah, here we are. Is this going to be a problem going forward?"

"A problem?" I scoffed, " Fam, mi can tell yuh right yasso say mi nah mek no woman fuck up my money,"

"Den we good?"

"No," Da bredda ya mad? "Fool me once and want me play the fool twice? Biggs, yuh mad, but yuh nuh fool."

"I told you he wouldn't be man enough to see past the this and move forward!" Sabrina groans.

Without looking over at her I kissed my teeth.

"My girl, mi know yuh know betta." My tone alone fi mek she know ar self, mi see like she straightened up and looked away from me. Just di very fact say she mek mi affi address her was irritating. Mi watch the look on Biggs' face when he realized the dynamics between Sabrina and I. If me seh rae, she affi do suh.

You can tell his ego was bruised, but him a weigh the pros and cons of reacting in any way I may find offensive. Good, evaluate Biggs...even though everybody an dem mada know you nuh too good at that. He shook his head and puffed his cigar.

"As long as the business remains, and di food nuh stop, all else nuh matta." He agreed. Good. Sensible.

"Weh mi ago need from you from here on tho, is keep her away from the business," I took my spiff from behind my ear and lit it. Taking a good puff, I maintained eye contact wid him. "She nuh need no parts of it."

He looked shocked fi a second and mi know him mussi a pree why I care. But, Sabrina was my responsibility up til recently. Him need fi mek sure the likkle fool nuh get herself hurt. She suh giddy-headed that I can see him asking her to do something illegal and her being all too happy fi dweet.

He nodded, "Everyting govan over here suh, man"

Hmph. I

"Alright, dat a dat then," I took another puff and looked out on the beach where I could see Ollie and Capri in the distance, watching and waiting. " Enjoy unno vacation."

Me nuh wait for a response, mi walk off, outting my spliff as I neared Nashé.

Mek we see how things go from yasso nuh?

If him and I can't work together that's fine. I'll reach my goals juss a little later, but at least me nah fi deal with him foolishness.

I stood just at her feet, looking down at her in her denim shorts with her peach bikini top on. Why as soon as she came into view my annoyance just disappeared like it neva did just deh right yasso?
