Lying down and staring at the ceiling, all I can think about is how I ruined my relationship with Nana, the only real girlfriend I've ever had
Really hope she can forgive me because, honestly I don't know what I'll do without her. I lost My Personal ooman because of one careless gyal.
Ago make it up to har stillz. I know she doesn't want anything to do with me, but I'll try talking to her and see. If I try and she still doesn't want to give me another chance, then I'll leave her alone. If we're meant to be, we will be.
"Mr Walker," the doctor, Mrs. Anderson, spoke drawing my attention. "You're lucky you just have a fractured nose. We're going to straighten the bone in your nose next 2 week but for now we're going to prescribe something for the swollen black and blue eye and to put on your nose for the pain.
She fuck yuh up reall bad.
"Yea okay Mrs. Anderson."

Leaving the doctor's office parking lot, I took my phone out my pocket and searched for Nana's name. I dialing it but it went straight to voicemail. I tried 2 more times and it was the same result.
Block mumma block mi ino jah know. Ago just pull up pon har.
I decided on calling her mother just so I could speak to her. I dialed her mom number, and she answered on the second ring. "Yes Odane?" She said first. I responded "Afternoon mommy can talk to Nana please? it naah tek more than 5 minutes. She block mi and mi just have one last thing fih say to har." Her mom she said make it quick and handed the phone to Nana.
"Hello"
"Nana " i said when she answered, my voice barely above a whisper. "We need to talk."
"What can we really talk about Odane?" she asked.
"I... I messed up. Im sorry"
There was a long silence on the other end of the line. I could almost hear the sound of Nana heart breaking. When she finally spoke, her voice was small and fragile.
"How could you do this to me, Odane? I thought we had something real."
Tears welled up in my eyes as I listened to the pain in her voice. "I'm so sorry, Nana. Mi nuh know wah mi did a think. It was a stupid, thoughtless mistake, and mi hate miself fi it."
Nana let out a shaky breath. "I trusted you, odane. I gave you everything. How am I supposed to get past this?"
"Mi really nuh know," I admitted, my voice cracking. "Mi just know say mi love you, and mi will do anything fih make this right. Please, Nana, give mi a chance fih fix this."
"I need time. Mi nuh know if mi can forgive you, or if we can ever be the same again."
My heart sank as mi realized the gravity of my actions. "I understand," I whispered. "Tek all the time you need. I'll be here, hoping and waiting."
As the call ended, i lay back on the car seat staring at the red sign at the stop light. The emptiness inside me was overwhelming, a constant reminder of the love i had carelessly thrown away. And I couldn't help but wonder if i lost Nana forever.

Hanging up the phone, I handed my mother her phone and went in my room and slammed the door. I sat on the bed, took up my phone and started scanning through me and Odane's text messages. Each message from Odane felt like a dagger to my heart now as I read them. The words blurred as tears filled my eyes, and my breathing became erratic. The reality of Odane betrayal crashed over me like a tidal wave.
I hurled my phone across the room, watching it shatter against the wall. The sound echoed in the silent house, and a scream tore from my throat. I got up, fists clenched, and started ripping down the photos of us together that adorned my walls. Each one felt like a lie, a mockery of the love I thought we had.
I grabbed the lamp on my nightstand and threw it to the floor, the crash satisfying some primal urge within me. I knocked over bookshelves, scattered clothes from my closet, and smashed a vase that had sat peacefully on my dresser. My room became a chaotic reflection of my inner turmoil.
My mother, heard the commotion, rushed to my room. She opened the door to find me in the middle of my destruction, tears streaming down my face. "Nana! Wamp tuh yuh?" She exclaimed, stepping over broken glass.
"Him cheat pon mi mommy! Wid mi owna friend!" I screamed, my voice breaking. "Odane cheat pon mi" I collapsed onto the floor, sobbing uncontrollably. My mother rushed to my side, trying to wrap her arms around me but I pushed her away, my anger still boiling.
"Baby please calm down," My mother pleaded, tears welling up in her own eyes at the sight of my pain. "We'll get through this together. Just breathe, Adoriyah."
But i couldn't hear her. I continued to cry, my body shaking with each sob. My mother stayed close, whispering soothing words, unable to penetrate my anguish.
Hours passed, and my energy finally waned. Exhausted, I lay in the wreckage of my room, My mother gently stroking my hair. "Why, Mommy? Why him do this to me?" I whispered, my voice hoarse.
"I don't know, sweetheart," My mother replied softly. "But I do know you're strong, and you'll get through this. We'll take it one day at a time."
As the night drew on, I clung to her mother, feeling the first stirrings of comfort amidst my heartbreak. The road to healing ago long, but in my mother's arms, i found a glimmer of hope.
