Waking up to a pounding headache I reached on to the bedside table and grabbed a small bottle with pain killers and took all the remaining contents of the bottle. Forcing my eyes open I caught a glimpse of a figure and I jumped startled but it was only my imagination.

I placed two tablets in my mouth and down the glass of water in one go. I reached over and unplug my phone then returned to my original position on my back and started scrolling through tiktok.

If bored was a person...

I decided to phone my little sister to see if she had made it home alive last night.
Reaching straight voicemail I hung up and placed the phone on the other side of the bed.

Staring at the sealing I slowly drifted off into my thoughts without realizing.

"Rhiana get away from that monster! " Mrs Davis, my neighbor , told her daughter who was a year younger than I was.

Rhiana stepped back from me and gave me an apologetic smile then ran off in the direction of her mother.

Like any other seven year old child I took it as a mother just being strict and nothing else but that so I skipped to the veranda singing a nursery rhyme not thinking much of anything.

'Maybe it's been I'm light skinned and rhiana is of darker skin tone' I thought to myself as I enter the house.

I realized my mother was no longer in the couch where I left her this morning when I went outside to play.

"Mom! " I called  as I sat down Changing the profile on Netflix to kids so I could watch mermaid magic .

As soon as the cartoon started I was fixed into position with my eyes glued to the screen ensuring to not miss anything.

I got lost in  the movie and nothing mattered any more.

"Lay!!? " I was pulled from my thoughts by  my  father banging on my door.

Everytime e man deh here him find supm fi upset mi.

"Yes? " I answered weakly as I dragged my feet across the room to the door.

"Holy fuck you look like crap" he erupted into pure laughter and pulled me into a hug .

I'm not affectionate but I'm used to him being extra affectionate with me.
I don't know if it's because I'm sick or he just loves me?.

"Thanks" I replied effortlessly already tired of him.

"Yuh tired a mi princess? " he asked as if reading my mind .

"No" I lied forcing a smile.

"Yuh mada down stairs a do breakfast hurry up and fawod mek we discuss family Mattas" he told me kissing my forehead before leaving.
