Moya's pov
If mi tell yuh mi happy fi deh back a dah place yer a lie mi a tell mi Neva miss school, honestly hate it here if it wasn't for the promise I made to my dad I would have dropped out the moment I started.
Unnecessary talking for long periods of time, exams where half the sh* t you were "thought" isn't even on it. All for what a piece of paper? And yuh probably not aren't going to be able to find a good paying job in your field when you graduate especially not in Jamaica.
Wul a wi ago end up a call center or wi turn scamma
Rubbish!
Should have just gone to trade school or took a course to help me manage my business better.
Speaking of business I need to check on that while I have some time this weekend, been Neglect it and that cya continue.
My phone vibrated on the table in front of me and I watched it right out like I've been doing since I woke up this morning.
After what happened last week, I told Damani I needed time to myself to process everything that had happened to me, he asked for a time frame, and I said about a week.
The man took it literal because today makes about a week and he hasn't stopped calling and texting all day.
*so why yuh nah answer the man*
Mi still a process
*just she yuh feel a way bout the whole phone call situation and stop lie*
I have no idea what your referring to, Neva see a thing.
Might just leave dah class yer early cause mi afi drive guh all the way a trelawny today and mi nuh wah deh pon the road late
Yeah mi finally a go look fi mommy she call mi again yesterday and a threaten mi so mi ago just get it over wid and done plus the bruises and swelling finally gone so mi nah go afi try hide them from her
"Mani she fi answer him message them and stop play wid him" yaya leaned over in my ear and whispered.
Note to self never become friends with a man's sibling cause when him cya get to through to yuh him ago use dem.
"Mi Neva see it mi ago text him back now" I whispered back.
*Wickedness cya done*
I sent mani a quick text saying I would call him when I was out of class not bothering to read the messages he had sent.
*yaa guh call him when yuh leave fi true*
Mi nuh know yet
Protecting my peace at all cost
I locked my phone putting it back down now waiting to see if he responds or not.
.

"Yuh still come country wid mi lata" I asked Yaya ask we walked out of class together.
I decided to just make it into a weekend getaway/ girls' trip mostly because I don't want to drive the whole way by myself but also because why not they probably needed this little get away as much as I do.
*yah mek it seem like is a flight yah catch a country yah go enuh girl*
And what country nice yf especially on the weekend sup'm eva a keep
"Of course, mi need a break away from Kingston"she said
"Yuh mean a break away from blacks?" I said shoving her shoulder playfully as we continued to walk.
"Glad yuh know" she rolled her eyes and I laughed
"Yuh did tell yuh bredda weh yah go" I asked hoping the answer was no
"Mi tell him we a go weh fi the weekend but mi Neva tell him where"
Love that love that.
"Good if him ask just tell him a ochi wi a go"
Getting into the parking lot I saw Damani and his friends leaning against my car
Man nuh rest
Wonder if it too late fi mi seh mi figet sum'p and turn back.
*girl go talk to that man*
Mi nuh wah chat to him mi still vex
*think yuh seh yuh Neva vex*
Mi a lied get it from mi bredda dem
"Hey" I said once I was standing infront of him
"Why yah ignore mi Moya" his voice a bit harsh.
Mi nuh like when people talk to mi hard enuh mi will cry
"I'm not ignoring you I've just been busy catching up with school" I said
"Mi look like a last night mi born don't"
Maybe mi nuh sure
"Can we have this conversation when I get back please mi a try leave out before it get too late mi nuh like drive a night" I said knowing I wasn't planning on having the conversation at all.
He stood there looking at me anger written all over his face I could tell he wanted to say something, but he didn't.
"Which part unno even a go" he asked.
"A airbnb in ochi" I lied him but nuh need fi know that.
"So Kingston nuh have Airbnb why unno afi go all the way a ochi"
"The point is to have a change of scenery why would we stay in Kingston" I challenged.
Either way mi a go bout my business the only person him can stop a him sista
"Ahh gi madhead yuh key and come mi carry yuh home so unno can get ready fi leave then."
Fi whyyy
"Why mi cya drive mi self" I asked confused
"Just give the man the key and come inna the car nuh badman"
I reluctantly handed my keys to Daniel before getting into his car that was parked beside mine
Look how mi a try avoid the man
*don't yuh think your being a little extra it was just a phone call and it's not like you and him deh*
Mi feeling hurt when them done hurt mi start think logically again as of right now Lowe mi Mek mi vex.
He stood outside for a little while longer having a conversation with his sister and friends before coming into the car.
Nathan pulled out first then Daniel then Yaya and him last all speeding through the gate once behind the other.
Then watch fast and the furious Tokyo drift.
The car ride was awkward and the tension between us was evident, I stayed on my phone trying to ignore it.
"Yah guh Mek mi explain or yah guh keep move like yah pickney" he asked breaking the silence.
"How mi a move like mi a pickney" I asked cause Wah him mean
"Seh yuh need time a week to be exact mi gi yuh dat, week done now and mi a text and call yuh phone and yah ignore man."
"I thought we were going to have this conversation when I got back."
"Now mi wah have it still."
"Mi refuse fi put mi self in a situation fi nuh body come to mi as a woman already guh through one traumatic relationship nuh feel like mi wah guh through a next one" I explained.
Cya tek another traumatic event this time mi might not recover
" you obviously have people you talk to and that's fine cause it's not like mi and yuh deh but mi nah try be one of the many" I continued when he didn't respond.
"If yuh did Mek mi explain mi self yuh woulda know seh mi and the girl nuh inna nothing months now we nuh talk."
And mi fi believe that?
*Yuh did believe Sean when him she a study him a study tho*
"So why she did a call yuh and let's not forget the girl in the club that night" I said.
"Mi and them use to link Neva wife them or tell them she wi deh weh them have inna them head and wah a the truth a two different thing"
After God fear men cause why this man sidung a call the people them gyal pickney delulu unda style
"They had to get the idea from somewhere but okay"
"You mi a try feature nuh care bout the rest a dem gyal yah mi tell yuh that already"
"Prove it"
" wah yuh mean" I looked away from the road over at me confused.
"If you really want me like you say you do prove it" I said.
"How mi fi do that now"
"Yuh wi figure it out mi have faith inna yuh"
For the rest of the car ride the only sounds heard was the one coming from the music playing lowly in the background
Alkaline "my side of the story" started playing and I chuckled a bit
How fitting
He started singing "Please baby don't throw it all away me might a f*ck up but nuh give up pon me."
His right hand rested on my thigh, and he continued to sing "Me wonda if me selfish cah me wah yu fi mi self Wah yu all about me and nobody else."
*oh God man Moya gi the man a chance*
I laughed at my subconscious because if mi leave it up to she mi tun a weak jelly back when it
come to dah man here.
We got to my house, and he parked.
"How am I going to get my Car I have to pick up everybody because I'm the one driving" I said.
"madhead gone pick up yuh friend them everybody supposed to already deh a mi yaad a wait pon wi"
I was about to step out of the car when realization hit I looked at him and he laughed.
"A wonder how mi know yuh move back home nuh true? Gawn fi yuh things dem and come man lata wi talk bout that" he said

I picked up my work phone going to my contacts and made a call to the head of my security team.

"Yeah man mi understand."
"Do the badness and Mek mi get the info before them ready fi cut" I said.
We hung up and I made a few more business calls checking in on everybody making sure everything was running smoothly how it needed to
Moya came out the house stuggling with a suitcase and a duffel bag

I got out the car and took the bags from her putting them them in the trunk.

"Not yet I was planning on getting something once we get on the road" she said.
I made and u-turn in the middle of the road and join the kfc line

Surprisingly the line drive through line was short so it didn't take long for us to get to the window.
She told me what she wanted and I looked at her weird but order it anyway.
Regular zinger not even the bbq and she nuh want nothing pon it just the bread and the chicken.

"Ouu drinks" Moya said running off towards the bottles as soon as we stepped foot Inside.
"Memba a you a drive and a Far yah go Lowe out the liquor" I said pulling her back towards me
She pouted and I ignored her.
Nah mek she kill off her self and mi sista pon the road
We chilled for a bit eating and talking before they said they were ready to leave
"Can I get my bags out the car please" she came up to me asking.
We were standing outside about to load the other girls bags into her car
"Just drive deh one deh" I said handing her the keys.
"Why"
"The bag them already inna the car so it Mek sense"
"I'm not driving your car."
"How yah go reach then" I asked
"My car is right there" she said pointing at it
"Yeah, but weh the key deh"
"Mi nah play enuh mani"
I shrugged and looked down at her
She walked away from over to Madhead asking for her key.
I gave him a look letting him know not to give them to her.
He tapped his pockets dipping his hand in them but came up with nothing
"Know seh it look like mi loss them" he said
My g that enuh
I laughed and so did blacks
She huffed before walking away towards my car opening it getting into the driver seat.
Yeah man must learn fi tek telling.
Once we finish putting the other bags in the car the rest of the girls said goodbye before getting in also
Moya didn't get out of the car she just drove off once everybody was in
Ago have a talk wid her bout that when she come back.
