The internet café was packed with high school students, as I waited for Miss. Wingey to print my resignation letter.
Scrolling aimlessly through Instagram, I sipped my Twix frappe, listening to the low hum of printers and keyboard clicking around me, until Wingey speaks again.
"Pretty girl?"
I looked up. Her eyes were on me.
"Yuh want it black and white right?"
"Yeah," I said, and she moved toward the printer. I got back to scrolling.
After this, I'm getting a new number. I've already blocked everyone, so WhatsApp won't even get the chance to snitch.
It's not that I don't want to be found. Cause I'm not hiding, it's just that I'm tired of being easy to hurt.
Plus some goodbyes don't need to be announced.
They just need to be done.
Not gonna lie, I'm so ready for this new chapter of my life.
Once I paid the $80 for the service, I folded the letter in three, slipped it into an envelope, and had her seal it. That was an extra $20. I didn't mind. The job was well done.
"Alright, Miss Wingey... thank you," I said, slipping out-only to feel an Anchovy boy tug at my hand.
"Yuh can mind mi?" I asked him.
"Of course... a big ooman like you mi like babes," he's walking with me.
I shot him a side eye. What I said next stopped him in his tracks. His friends howled.
"School bwoy money done from Friday. Next," I rolled my eyes, clicked my fob key, and got in.
I'm still thinking of a name to her..
The air conditioner gets cold in seconds. I pull off at exactly 1:30 PM. Now heading to the agency. A random taxi flashes me with their headlight. I drag the seatbelt across, hold it, and once I pass the police, I let it go.
By the time I'm walking into the agency, it's 1:45 PM.
