Kenya's POV*
11:44 p.m

"Shit" I curse before looking at my broken nail.

"Yuh good?" He asks, coming from the bathroom

"Mhmm" I hum in response

It starts bleeding and I rush to the door

He gently grabs my wrist before I could reach, turning me to face him.
"What's wrong"

"I broke my nail"

He lifts my hand, observing it.

He exhales before pulling me into the bathroom, pushing the faucet lever to the left and placing my bloody finger under the water.

He seems more upset about it than I am.

Absurd

"Come" He says, before leaving the bathroom and I follow behind

We sit on the bed and he opens the suitcase before taking out a band-aid and wrapping it around my finger.

"Thank you" I tell him and he nods

His hair falls to his face and he pushes it back.

I can tell he's annoyed by it.

"Just let me put it in a bun or sum'n"

"No" He says and I shrug

"When we go home" He says in a more subtle tone, before laying on his back and I get on top, straddling him.

He wraps his arms around me, pulling me closer to him and my face is now laying on his chest.

His hugs are so precious.
Whenever he hugs me, it feels as if he's doing it because he won't get another chance to.

I pray this is not his reason.

I exhale.

"Jah know babes. See yuh phone yah, me cyah do without mine" He says, handing the phone to me

"I know you use it when I'm not around" I tell him and he gives a light chuckle

We lay there, in silence, on our phones until he finally puts it on the bed and is back to cuddling me

As I'm scrolling on Instagram, I see a riddle and I decide on asking him

"Unless you spread it, you can't enjoy it. What is it?" I ask and he exhales before closing his eyes

"Answer nuh" I gripe

"Pussy" He replies and I chuckle

"No"

"Butter" He says, throwing the blanket over us

"Bedtime" He mumbles before tightening his arms around me and I chuckle

10:29 a.m

Aaron is taking a shower and I'm packing up the suitcases.

I was trying to pack last night but my nail broke so here I am, hurrying.

If there is anything I hate more than hurrying......
Mi nuh see it yet.

I hear my phone ringing, it is almost inaudible since it is lost in the sheets

I dig through, trying to get to it before it hangs up.

Here it is

"Hey" I answer

"Me deh call yuh from yuh text me tell me say yuh reach days a go....No answer"  My mom says

"We agreed on not using our phones on this trip. Sorry"
