"Girl, mi mek fi ask yuh if yah guh a di company retreat this weekend enuh." Kj said as I saw him pop his head around divider into my cubicle out of the corner of my eye.
"Zas chrise Kj." I almost screamed when I turned around to reply to him but not realizing how close his face was. "Yuh nearly gimme heart attack."
"My bad." He said with a slight chuckle as he pulled back and I tried to calm my racing heart. "The question still remains though."
"Mi neva know bout nuh retreat." I came to work and went back home so I didn't know much of anything that was happening in the office except for when Kj would inform me.
"It's this big thing every year."
"Oh."
"Suh who an who usually guh a dat now?"
"Everybody who is anybody and it's free too suh imagine 2 days an 3 nights at an all inclusive resort at no cost to you." It did sound good especially for someone who didn't have the luxury of booking themselves into an all inclusive resort for a weekend.
"It's too short notice for me but enjoy it for the both of us." My miserable man wouldn't want me fi leave him sight fi too long suh mi affi just si di retreat an mek it retreat without me.
"But if yuh nah guh den me nah guh either."
"But yuh usually guh before me come here."
"Yeah but mi nuh guh di last two years dem cause mi fren weh used tuh work here did leave suh mi neva ave nuh company."

His exact words were, "if me nah tek taxi den mi nuh want my woman fi a tek nuh taxi...." And he insisted so I stopped arguing and just went with whatever mode of transportation he provided for me as much as I hated it.
"He's usually there, maybe not the first night but he's usually there."
"That's nice but I don't know if I'm ready for all these people to know that I am the mystery girl."
"How would they know?" He doesn't know the type of man Nasir Addler is and it shows but how would he know?
"Can you not tell that he's overprotective?" A blind man could probably tell that even though people keep saying that it's not overprotectiveness, he's just protecting me but because I've never had anyone protect me before, it might come off as such.
"Yeah but I'm sure he can keep it under wraps for two days."
"I don't know."
"Pretty please bestie?" He said with a pout and puppy dog eyes.
