AZAI NASIR||19

NASIR'S HOUSE|| FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 25TH

Technically Azani wasn't a secret, at least not to my father.

The day Leslie told me she was pregnant I never believed it was mine solely because we used a condom but I was still supporting her even when we were waiting for the paternity test to come back to state whether he was mine or not.

After the test confirmed that I was the father I told my mother about it but kept it from Avi because I knew she would tell Sy'rai and truth be told I was scared of how she would react.

But time waits on no man and before we could count Azani was born and in a couple of months, Sy'rai would find out.

We never really got around to having a proper conversation about it because she found out the night before she left for Canada when Leslie showed up at Raheem's house party.

"Yuh still nah deal wid me?" I ask backing her up against the kitchen counter and she stares into my eyes.

She's been avoiding me for the past two weeks and I've been giving her the space she asked for but after one a the man dem make me know seh Tareek a put talk to her the space giving done.

Ignoring me, she looked down at the soda in her hand and I gently used my hand to turn her face upwards so she could look me in the eyes again.

"I'm sorry" I apologize and she sighs, trying to move away from me but I stop her.

"Mi should a make yuh know the full 100 but Rai be honest how yuh expect me fi drop a bomb like that pan yuh after we established we were going to give this relationship thing a try"

"Yuh should've found a way to tell me because before all the feelings and before all the sex, we were best friends" she counters and I step away from her a bit.

"Mi just never know how fi tell yuh without hurting you and fi dat mi sorry" I apologized again and she nodded.

I didn't know what that meant exactly but I hope it means we could start working towards moving past this.

She tried to step around me but I blocked her path again, "We good?" I asked needing to know before mi start my fuckry.

"We're good but I think we need to put whatever this is between us on the back burner until we can sort stuff out" she says looking up at me with her big brown eyes.

Fuckry she a chat a my ears

"Put it pan back burner suh you can continue link wid such man and nuh feel nuh way bout it" I hinted, laughing humourlessly cause she must think me a idiot.

"Really Azai? That's not the reason why I said that and you need fi tell yuh friends fi stop watch me" she says catching an attitude.

"A nuh dat if yuh think yuh bad go out wid him" I threatened and she rolled her eyes with a pout on her face but mi nuh give a fuck.
