She moves towards the driver's side of her Honda and I move around to the passenger side to hop in the car.
Aunty Michelle worked as an investment banker here in Mobay.
Still nuh understand half ah weh she do, but di lady mek nuff money.
She no had children, and she has never been married.
Michelle is addicted to the rich auntie lifestyle.
Wonder if she eva miss....actually never mind.
"What time yah come off ah work tonight" she asks me, pulling out of her front gate.
"Around 6, but hopefully sooner"
These eight-hour shifts were starting to get to me already, and it hadn't even been two weeks.
It's mainly cause I have to stand so much, plus mi hate di constant social interaction part as well.
Mi easily get overly stimulated.
I move to pull out my phone, scrolling on my lock screen for any missed notifications.

But Sevana still nuh learn how fi deal wid him.
Either that, or she just love di mixup and contention.
Even though Sevana was younger than me, we grew up so close as kids, you woulda think seh di two ah we ah twin.
Love her like seh we did inna di womb together.
Plus she was my unofficial babysitter.
