"A who dat?" I point to the female I see hanging men clothes on the line.

Cashmar laughs, slapping Tyrone on the back.

"Wahm'n?" Ty hissed.

"Julius Caesar get Ooman." Cash laughed.

My eyes widened.

"Eh." I laughed, admiring her from a distance.

"Mih nuh know how him bag har enuh. Muma look gud yuh fuck." He expresses. "Wih soon si dem married and ting."

"Shi dat good?" Ty inquired.

"Bredda." Cash exaggerates, standing with his arms folded.

"Talk nuh."

"A wife dat bro." He hissed. "See har deh pin out clothes. A hand wash all a dat enuh."

I listened attentively, focused on her as she bends to take the clothes from the basket had her little round ass in the air.

Growing interest.

"An eh food smell good tu. Mih swear a did mummy a cook." HD finally looks up from the weeds he's crushing.

"Eh bwoy clean the plate and couldn't move." Cash laughed. "Fih see dem a tek taxi guh work a week time and naw miss church."

"Dih fucka still mean." HD added and we laughed.

The more they gossiped, the more I'm interested.

Would a think man nuh gossip, but dem man yah worst than woman more while.

Minutes later, she's walking out of the house towards the shop and HD got up.

He went through the back and I got up, getting looks from Tyrone and Cashmar.

"Ya cut already?" Cash asked.

"Mih a guh introduce mih self to mih ooman."

They laughed hard, causing HD to poke his head out.

Julius said he forgot to buy the groceries and I know he definitely remembered.

If a neva the urge mih have fih save some extra money, mih nuh move come yah.

Still mih affi deh spend.

I sighed audibly, walking into the shop and immediately the sound of men laughing fills my ears.

"HD!" I called, hoping that he's close.

Mih naw come bawl out serve, never.

"Wahm'n Mumma." He greets and I laughed at his friendliness.

"Call mih Simone or Sim." I told him, unlocking my phone.

"Simone what?"

"Shakespeare." I answered.

"Yuh related to William?" He teases and I laughed.

William Shakespeare.

"Nope." I said then told him the list of things I wanted.

Before he turned, he looks behind me as someone entered the stop.

He laughs and left.

Turning to the person dressed in all white, I took a glimpse at his skin tone and lost interest immediately.
