📍 Paisley, Clarendon 📍Tamika's POV
Everybody needs an Aunt Bev.
"Thank you," I say, pouting my lips.
An hour ago, I got the urge to eat jerk chicken and I didn't want to call Dominic because he's busy.
So when I told Bev I'm literally tasting it, she said she'll get it for me and the sweetest part about it is, the place I normally get jerk chicken in May pen got relocated and I didn't know where to, so we had to ask for directions from passerby's.
Literally went out her way to get it.
So sweet..
"Aunty, I feel like you just saved my life," I say as I eat the food, relishing in all the flavors.
Yuh know say tha pickney yerr a mek mi big and fat though.
"I know how cravings can get, I'm glad I could help, but how are you?" She asks.
Peppa bunn mi.
"How am I?" I repeat her question and she nods.
"I'm doing well, actually"
Too well, it's scary.
"Good, but with all truth and honesty Tami mi can fass ina yuh business?" She asks.

Mi nav nuh business fi yuh fass Ina.
"Yuh can run mi if you think I'm overstepping, mi juss wa ask," Aunty adds.
Wonder wah she coming with.
"Ok, ask away"
She nods and sit up in the chair. "This morning you told Dominic not to stay out long because yuh nav nuh fren. Suh you and the pretty dark skin girl a did wa?"
El o El.
Eye them good though Miss Bev.
"Oh, a juss so mi always a say," I laugh it off.
If mi tell you say I'm not worried about Tessann, a lie.
Even tho we aren't friends, I still hope everything is good with her.
Yes mi a idiot.. mi done accept that long time, suh mi nah guh run weh from the truth.
"Oh," she looks at me knowingly, she doesn't believe.
Suh it guh.
My phone rings and I get up, expecting it to be Dominic, but it isn't.
"Hello?" I answer the unknown number.
