"Gyal yuh cratch obese!" I sing to Najeeri's song, Paddle Boat.
I'm showering to go visit mommy and K' Lynn.
I got paid yesterday, and me ago give them a likkle change.
Today's my day off too, Kimali said I shouldn't come back to work until Monday.
And to his me glad, me neva ask why. As long as me get the cash.
Right.
I got $85,000 for my pay. Who glad like me? Worst how me never whull so much money innah me hand.
I called mummy yesterday and tell her that I'm coming today, and she had to practically beg her boss for the day so she could see me. A hate the dutty people dem.
Same.
But dem alright man, mummy soon no affi work wit' dem no more.
Just time.
Right. And God's will.
So yuh just go pretend like nothing no happen since and last week?
What ha—
Oh.
I went on date with Kimali.
Murdaaa!
A joke me a make.
But I did let him touch me again—twice.
Yuh navv no broughtopsy.
Once inside his office, and the other at home.
Afta yuh see di gyal—nossah.
It's really not that deep.
Of course, yuh no have nuhn 'bout yuhself.
Aarite, aarite done.
I do agree with my subconscious, because after I was finished on Friday, I didn't talk back to him until Monday, and that's when the other thing happened.
Yuh sick me.
Anyways...my Bestie's at work. And yes, this early because she has to open the shop.
Me ago see har later though, cause me nah go stay a country.
And Landlord.
Nope. Him can stay there, I've been avoiding him since the last...thing happened. When I'm at work, I do as I'm told and assigned to, that's it.
I don't exchange words with him unless it has something to do with work.
Yuh tann up pahh yuh foot dem frl, man.
