Since it's my day off, I spend most of it sleeping. After waking up, I brushed my teeth, grabbed something quick to eat, then headed to the washroom. I separated my work scrubs from the rest of my clothes, tossing the other clothes into the washing machine. I added two scoops of Ariel soap detergent and set it to wash. Then I got to work on my scrubs, washing them by hand like I always do. After that, I grabbed my underwear and washed them too, rinsing them out with some Downy fabric softener before tossing them into the dryer.
Once they were done, I moved them into the basket, leaving it by the dryer for the rest of the clothes to finish. When they were finally dry, I carried the basket to my room and started putting everything away.
"Finally mi done," I mumbled, plopping down on the couch in the living room. Just as I was about to turn on the TV, I heard a knock on the door, followed by a soft, feminine voice. "Dwayne!"
Dat nuh sound like Sam...
I grabbed my phone and opened the camera app Dwayne set up for me. I saw a woman nearly around my age standing at the door.
A who she?
Mi eye totally shut, mi nuh see ntg
Hearing the knock again, I walked over to the door and opened it. "Hi, how can I help you?" I asked. She looked me up and down with this smug expression.
Tf..
"Oh, hey, you must be the housekeeper. Umm, is Dwayne home?" she asked, peeking inside.
But dah gyal yah brite, boh housekeeper.
Before yuh spit inna di gyal face, she damn brite
Not even bothering to answer her shade, I asked, "And you are?" She straightened up, clearly trying to hold her ground. "Umm, I'm Taelynn, his fiancée," she said confidently.
Fiancè?
Kakarawtid
"Okay, well, he's not here right now, but I'll tell him you stopped by," I said, shutting the door in her face before she could say anything else.
Wtf?
Weh she mean him fiancée?
Suh yah tell mi seh Dwayne have mi from June a waste mi time and now mi hear seh him have another girl? Fiancée at that.
Jah kno, man wicked, mi shoulda listen to Aunty Karen.
Before I knew it, tears were running down my face, and I started breaking down right there on the floor.
