"Alex? Why are you around here all alone?" Mi ask him

"Nothing really. It's such a nice view, am just you know, taking some fresh air. Who are these by the way?" Him ask

"Nice place your daddy's got Lisa"

"Thanks Alex" Lisa seh

"We soon come back" Kiesha whisper in mi ears, then them walk weh. Mi walk closer to Alex.

"So what's your business here Alex?, apart from delivering messages? You seem to know Lamar very well, and in my twelve years of living here, I have never seen you"

" I migrated. Long story. So what happened to the rest of your years? You sure as hell ain't twelve. And like I said, he's a good friend of mine."

"Good friend? You lack taste" Mi laugh sardonically


"How ironic of you to say I lack taste when you are the one who dated him. Quite funny. You lack taste ma'am."

"Whatever." mi seh and roll mi eyes. "I guess we both have a point. Lamar isn't the best catch." 

"I see we live in the same lane. I can drop you off if you want"
