How did I find myself here?

No... scratch that.... how did I allow Daniel to be here , in my living room venting  to me about his life?

 Mommy has  always told me that I have a soft spot for people and I just proved her point

Mommy has  always told me that I have a soft spot for people and I just proved her point.

"Mi a tell you sham mi head fuck up mi no know weh fi do." He tells me , apparently his brother died and without his guidance he doesn't really have any one.

"So you don't have nuh close relatives can provide for you until you can manage on your own?" I ask fiddling with the cushion that I have on my lap.

"It's not the money... it's the fact that he was the parent in my life and now I don't have him." He tells me.

His story is sad .... But I can't do anything about it really.

"Why did you choose to come here?Suppose mommy did deh here?" I ask

She woulda probably start cuss weh mi have dis big ole boy a do inna r house.

Him probably need fi go, especially because Jaydon will be here soon.

"Shamoy a you alone mi have leave." He says in a serious tone.
I'd be lying if I said I didn't hear the hurt in his voice because I do , the thing is , how can I feel sympathy over someone who had put me through so much?

Mi cyah dweet...

"What about your friends ? Black cheese , weh d other one name? Rum punch? Can't you talk to them?" I ask.

"Bredda if you no wah inna no dealings wid me just say dat." He retorts.

I don't.
But it'd be easier to come up with alternatives than run him out of here.

"Mi just want a person fi vent to, nah medz to nuh man ...and nu bada ask bout mi rest a ooman dem cause half a the time a fuck them eva just wah from me." He says.
