True! Blushing and all these thingzz!My subconscious shrieks.
I look over at Gavin and he’s looking at her too with a weird smile. He’s thinking what I’m thinking.
Me see why unuh a best friend.
“Um you know him?” I whisper and he shakes his head no, still looking at them.
“Mi nuh know him,” he’s fighting his smile.
I smile too. “Them have a history, mi nah ask,” I say and he chuckles.
“Mhmmm,” he nods, glancing at them.
“Mi a go home now fi real,” I announce.
“Take care boss!”
“Bye Zara!” Sash says, surprising me.
Wah bout dolly?
“Drive safe best fren, mi a tun detective likkle from this and sen yuh the tea, weh yuh want it pan voice note or voice call? Talk fass,” he says making me laugh.
I hug him before I peck his cheek.
“You should a turn comedian,” I finally say to him and he laughs.
“Bye!”
I honk the horn and reverse out, my phone resting on my lap. He’s sitting there, eating something that looks suspiciously like curry chicken, and I gasp.
“A CHICKEN THAT?” I blurt out, louder than I should, startling him. He bursts into laughter, caught off guard.
“No,” he says, still laughing.
“Wah then?” I ask, narrowing my eyes as he lifts the food to show me.
“It’s mushroom,” he says, still grinning.
I sit back in my seat, a little amused and a little embarrassed. “Ohh,” I say, smiling.
“When yaw come home, woman?” he asks, and I laugh at how he says it.
“Wah the woman name?” I tease, and he smirks, not missing a beat.
“Nick woman,” he says, eyes holding mine steadily.
I blush at the name, my heart fluttering in a way I wasn’t expecting. “Fair enough,” I mutter, pretending to focus as I press the gas. My legs are a little cramped, but I ignore the discomfort.
“Arite, mami… I love you,” he says, his voice soft now.
