Tanoi Cunningham

"How everything going so far?" Dad questions.

I haven't heard from him in a few days, he said he was busy with some things. This was the longest I haven't spoken to him.

"Good, I guess" I answer, "Dre's Honda outta the shop, him send me the picture today".

"Yeah him send it to me, yuh no sound okay Tanoi, wahm to you?".

I let out an exaggerating sound, "nothing, just have some things on my mind".

"Tanoi, you don't have any responsibilities so what could be on your mind?"

"Yaah go pull that card, really Dad?"

He chuckles, "I'm sorry Princess, just tell me what's up?".

I tell him what Chey told me about Tanisha and Jaydon last week, I was trying not to let it bother me but I couldn't.

Although Tanisha wasn't a saint, I never expected her to do something like that to me.

Me.

A the people them yuh least expect always do yuh things.

Honestly.

"Hmm, everyday me get another reason fi take yuh up"

"No need for that, I'll be okay"

"Mi know yaah go say that, just nuh make it stress yuh too much alright?"

"Yeah", I see a text from Mani come up and I click on it.

Time to cause a scene for no reason.

Tanoi: Hmmm....do weh yaah do🥱

I was giggling at how quickly I could get him upset.

"Why yaah trouble Chinna?" Dad asks, I almost forgot he was on the phone with me.

"How yuh know a him me a trouble?" I ask him.

"Caz me know dah likkle giggle deh, it etch inna me brain"

Dat cyaah good.

Wait....why's he asking me that so casually?.

"He's in Sav, he's not coming back until tomorrow so I'm making him think I'm upset about it"

"Work him a work, why yaah go make him stress out himself?"

I smile, seeing Imani's texts coming in one after the other, I stopped texting him for two minutes and he starts blowing up my phone.
