"Tristen, put down the glass" My mother was the first one to speak.
I held the glass with shaky hands as Guilt took me over.
"A my fault mommy" Tears continued to slip from my eyes as I bring the glass closer.
"Yute just put down the glass cause anything yuh do can fix" Chris spoke, trying to reassure me.
"Tristen Please" My mother bursted into tears as everyone else stared in shock.
Chris manage to took the glass from my bloody hands and pushed me outside.
"Yah fucking Idiot??? Look how yuh cut up yuh hand" Chris hissed as he threw the glass in the corner.
"Wah do yuh yute?"
I looked away from his Gaze as the cold windy breeze brush on my skin.
"Yute" Chris force a answer out of me.
"Guilt a eat me up........." I sat down near the pool signaling him to sit down. " A neva till just awhile ago when Tania find out seh she pregnant"

"Yeah, It's like through me did put me hands pon har inah Har last pregnancy. She fraid me dweet again" I spoke as Candice came with a bandage to wrap up my wounded palms.

"Ah, mek sure yuh nuh pull Weh yuh pull in desso again" He pulled me into a bro hug.
Chris hugged me and it felt like 'Love'. He has been a father figure to me this whole time and I didn't see it until now.
"Gwan guh wrap up with Nia and nuh seh nothing to nobody" He removed himself from the hug.
"Candice pregnant again to" He whispered to me with a smile.
