“Uh… so you think mi score again?” I trail off.
She’s annoyed by my wording. “Yes it’s possible, I’ll just watch and see, mialso know seh the injection can change my cycle and even make it nuh come when it should but Nickoi we been nah use no protection,” she adds.
“We can,” I say.
“Nickoi you nuh worried?”
“Fi wah? Mi tell you say anything fi do with you mi ready enuh.” I shrug . She smiles somberly.
“I’m scared,” her voice soft and I hug her.
“Mi nuh wah yuh be scared Mami, mi deh yah fi you enuh,” I promise.
“I know it’s just that it’s probably not the right time since the twins are just 7months. I am mostly scared of the labor, I felt like I was going to die.”
“And mi say mi deh yah.” How much time she go mek mi say this?
She snuggles into me. “I’m happy for this little break away, it was on mymind a lot.”
I hug her before kissing her forehead. “Don’t worry about it, we can check Aunty tomorrow and whatever the situation is we work with it. If you pregnant then we just deal with it and if not, we use the protection.”
She hugs me tightly. “I love you-”
“Yow eh food deh ya enuh!” Gutta shouts.
Junior gestures his hand. “Fawud!”
“Food?” Zara says surprised and I chuckle to myself before I hold her hand. “Come on.”

I scroll through Prezi’s woman Instagram and all I can say is, she up deh wid Lori Harvey and em’ girl deh. Most of her videos are saved in her highlights and her pictures. Jah… she’s fine as hell. Gyal body firm, skin clean.Jah know.I glance down, and just by looking, I’m hard.
A good thing a me alone deh yasso. But that’s the thing with him, he always wants the best. The best cars, the best house, the best clothes, the best woman, the best everything. And thinks so highly of himself.
I scroll through her comments and I find him but his account is private. Gwaan like him a the smartest man pon earth.
Or the safest? My subconscious adds.
Mek wi see how safe yuh be nuh Prezi.
I laugh to myself.
As I continue to scroll I spot Alrick’s account. I breathe, him a the next idiot. Him know say Nickoi and him bredda murder my father which is his uncle and he’s still around them playing ‘loyal’.
His page isn’t private.
Nice.
He has ten pictures but I don’t bother to look at them instead I press on his story with my fake page. He’s singing Teejay’s new year and I chuckle when he says ‘mi nah dead’.
“Yuh nah dead but yuh Don will, if yuh get caught up, it would a just be your fate cuz,” I say to myself. Then adrenalinesurges through me when I spothimin the background of the video. Prezi. They’re at Lime Cay. Rick naw learn enuh.
Then again he was never ready fi the bad man life, he’s only a ‘pretty bwoy’ scammer. Nick nuh tell him say him fi post two days after him lef the location? Or eh bwoy Nick a slack up?
You see if mi never in a good mood mi go down deh wid mi dawg an’ mek everything dead inna dat. Brawling. I replay the video, only focusing onhim. Bwoy nuh fi a breathe. Him a live the life man and he seems happy too.
You soon mash up that man. Soon.
