We take the 1 hour and 40 minutes drive through Kinkhead junction main. We made the stop at a baby store in Mandeville and bought a few things.

"Rass," he says as he takes up a bottle set. It includes nipple bottles of different sizes. The bottles contain a number of tops to choose from. Pacifiers (soother), the cleaning equipment and a teething ring.

"What is it," I ask as he stares at the price tag.

"A nearly 25 grand dis eno," he chuckles as he hands it to me.

He's complaining about the price and he's still going to buy it.

"Even with the 15% discount for the holidays?" I ask.

"We get discount?," he asks, obviously shocked.

"Imagine if none nae deh pon it to pussy," he swears and I had to laugh.

Aldaine is just walking around and touching stuff.

We buy the set along with a few neutral coloured pin unders and monkey suits. We went to another store and bought boxes and wrapping paper.

We got back into the car and started our journey to Sainty. The drive was long enough to allow me to pack the stuff neatly in the box and wrap it up nicely.

I took a short nap to shorten the drive.

One thing wid mi, if d drive long mi a guh sleep.

11:47a.m.
I wake up as the car pulls into the street leading up to a big house. It's painted in a cream colour and white. The scenery is beautiful. A lot of expensive looking cars are parked on both sides of the street leading up to the house.

"Yuh not coming?" Shane asks and it's then I realise I zoned out.

"Yeah," I smile, taking up the neatly wrapped box. Oshane is latched onto his father's back as we both walk towards the house. I don't know how to feel, I'm about to meet some of my boyfriend's family members.

Den goods you hype ee? As yuh get e likkle title yuh nuh stop use it. Ease up offa it mn!!

Not even a meds she eno.

"Yuh good," he stops to ask and I nod.

"Alright," he says and reaches out his hand to hold mine.

Watch butterflies!!

We walk to the back of the house, hand in hand. Eventually we arrived in front of the entrance to the house and before long we're entering.

"Shane?!" I hear someone shout in the form of a question. I turn to see a darker, shorter version of Oshane walking towards us with an identical smile to Oshane's.

"Mari," he laughs and hands me Aldaine.

"Bloodclaat, look how e man tall man," he says dabbing him up and pulling him into a hug.

"And yuh nuh change," he shakes his head with his hand on his chin and the other folded beneath it.

"A cya suh long mi nuh come Jamaica,"

Oh so he's coming from a different country, his faint but noticeable accent makes sense then.

"Suh yuh nah plan fi introduce me?" he asks and folds his arms. I chuckle at his sudden question.

"Yuh know Aldaine already," Shane responds and I smile.

"A fuss mi a meet him suh stop mek it sound suh," he hisses his teeth.

"And this is my now girlfriend, Christine, Christine this is my baby brother Omar," he introduces and I smile.

"Minus the baby, nice to meet you," he smiles lightly, holding out his hand for me to shake and I do just that.
