Calling off from work today was not something I had planned for it.
It just happened.
In my mind, until they started to make some moves to help rearrange my schedule, I will not fail in my efforts to continue to raise hell.
They will see me on Tuesday.
Oh puh!
Cause mi nah tek nuh bus guh Mobay tonight either.
Mussi mad!
"Sarai! Look pon dah gyal profile yah" I look up from my phone and shift my gaze in Sevana's direction.
She passes me her phone which has an Instagram profile displayed on the screen.
The account had a little over fifty thousand followers, and the girl seemed to be pretty popular.
"Should I know this person?" I ask.
"Maybe? Doesn't matter though, what's important is that she's an influencer and she lives here in Mandeville"
"Mi wah do her hair and see if mi can get likkle promo from her fi di salon" she explains.
I nod my head in response, scanning over the girl's page as I click through her posts and highlights.
Amina Cohen...
She very pretty, di gyal look nice!
The sound of feet against the living room floor shifts my attention up and away from the phone and toward Samir.
Figet seh him did deh yah...
"Ah who fah phone we aguh use?" Sevana asks, shifting in her seat next to me on the couch.
We were supposed to be calling our dad for Father's Day.
Group call, cause mi cyaa deal wid di whole heap ah chatting today.

Even if ah joke him ah run, anuh lie.
Daddy nuh like answer Sevana call dem cause all she do ah ask fi money.
Me on the other hand?
Mi start cuss him before di phone even connect.
I hate deadbeat dads, and he was the worst kind.
Samson West nuh like tek accountability fi shit.
"Suh wah? Mi supposed to sidung an suffer when mi have a father weh can tek care ah me?" Sevana replies, sounding offended.
"Ah dat mi seh likkle girl?" Samir retorts.
