It's been a year, business was booming, and I had considered hiring people, but DeShawn had already hired some people to help with packaging, making the products after I taught them for a week and a half while Jeremy and I switched between handling online orders and shipping them off to customers. My bank account was great, and I was looking great as well afterall I used all of my skin and hair care products on myself. My employees got little packages to use as well.
"We have dinner with your father tonight." DeShawn waved an invitation at me. I frowned.
"Them can't rest??" I hissed my teeth.
"At least go a this one caz a me ago get all the bad name yah now." He laughed. We were inside my office printing labels.
I hissed my teeth again.
"I'm not going." I turned to leave when he grabbed my elbow.
"Yes, beb??" I turned to look at him.
"How you a move so from wah day yah??" He asked. I sighed. I felt incredibly drained, tired, and hungry.
"I don't know, I really don't know." He pulled me closer to him, and I leaned into him with my head resting on his chest. I felt so at peace, I hadn't hugged him in a while, so I didn't hesitate to wrap my arms around him.
"What? You nuh want marry me??" He had proposed to me after we went and visited his sister's grave as well as I got to meet his mom. She looked oddly calm, not mentally ill at all, and she was at a retirement home. Something still isn't adding up.
"Oh, shut up." I slapped him on his butt.
"Ey, round deh suh is off limits. The only way you fih a grab round deh suh a when mih balls deep inna you tight ole." I laughed.
I can't bother wid him sometimes eno.
"That's the laugh I wanna hear." He rubbed my back and kissed my forehead.
"Gimmie kiss??" He asked, and I pulled away a little, going on tip toes to meet his lips. We shared a short, passionate kiss. I pulled away, and he followed my lips.
"Nae, nuh do that again, breddah." His hissed his teeth, eyeing my lips.
"You never plan fih done?? Mih still have this fih go give Jeremy." I laughed.
"Mih never ready fih stop kiss you." He looked sad, and I couldn't help laughing.
"When we get home you can kiss me all you want." I smiled.
"Gwaan bout your business, breddah." He mumbled, slapping my ass with both hands, then went to sit on the little bed.
"You nuh want nothing fih eat??"
He shook his head.
"Mih nuh hungry yet."
At lunch, Jeremy watched me eat with disgust.
"A wah??" I asked.
"You nuh fraid you go have colic?? Apple and salt weh nuh too bad but watermelon and cheese, steam fish wid wheat bread....wah that you a drink??"
"Pickle juice."
He gagged.
"You a overreact, all this tastes heavenly bruh." I leaned back, patting my stomach.
"Heavenly mih rass." He shivered, and I chuckled.
"Mih feel like go home early today..." I sighed.
"You been here for days, when last you go home and spend some time there with you man??" He asked.
"About a month or so..." I trailed off.
"Listen, you ago spend some time with a miserable man deh and take some time off just go out and enjoy yourself. Mih and Melodie will take care of here for you. Okay??" He held my hands from across the table.
"Okay, first help mih order some furniture, finna turn upstairs into a flat." I sat up straight, putting the iPad in front of us.
I left the store around 5:30, which is awfully early for me.
Mih ave time fih walk Smirnoff this evening.
Miss Marie wasn't at the house when I got there, I warmed up some food in a pot and rested it into the microwave to keep warm for 3 minutes, I only needed 3 minutes to change out of today's clothes into my bathrobe and let my hair down out of the tight bun.
After that, I slowly made my way upstairs humming softly. I pushed the unlocked door open, stumbling upon something unexpected.
My fiancé in bed with a familiar face.
"Wah the bumboclaat—!!"
