Tamika's POV

I guess my new name should be courts ready cash 'cause, I don't know why this young lady thinks it's ok to apply for a loan from me on such short notice.

I'm not saying I don't have it, because lately I've been surprisingly rich, but come on, not even a little heads up?

or a nuh suh people beg?

"So yes, mi can start pay you back after next week."

Even make payment schedules, and mi never tell her yes or no.

"How much yuh say again?" I ask, taking my phone from my scrub top's pocket.

She better not take this as habit cause next time mi a say no.

"30k."

I nod.

"Check your account."

Bet she na pay mi back?

"Thank you, girl you're a literal life saver, mi ago pay you back soon," Denice tells me and I nod.

We'll see what's your soon.

Yawing, I wipe the single tear that fell from my eye lid.

Tired 'til it look bad! 

All mi batty jaw a hurt mi for some reason.

My phone rings and I pick up when I see Jermaine's name pop up.

"Hello.." I trail off with another exhausting yawn.

"Yah guh swallow the phone my girl?" He laughs.

I giggle then wipe my eyes. "Bredda wa yuh wah?"

I hear him tell Kiara to put on her shoes then he clears his throat, "Mi a get ready fi leave out, yuh still deh work?"

I nod yes as my eyes closes.

"Tamika!"

"Yeahh, yes mi still deh work soon leave," I say this while I yawn again.

No man!

"Yuh sure yuh still wa fawod? Sound tired."

He's right, I am.

But I'm not missing my father's birthday because I'm 'tired'

Jermaine Burst out laughing at my statement and says, "Gwan bout yuh business yute.. cah mi nuh know if a Ina the seventy's yuh born."
