Modern Day Love Jones.

40.

"Sureee." He sarcastically replied

I scheduled us an ATV safari tour, a bamboo raft, and then later tonight dinner at one of Jamaica's most luxurious restaurants- The Sugar Mill.

"Look at these slow asses." I said as Mario and Mel came around the corner

We laughed at how tired they looked. "Damn, y'all good?" Chris laughed

"You ain't say we was racing" Mario parked

"Yeah, and y'all cheated" Mel took her helmet off

"Lies. Y'all just old so you move slower." I nudged her

"But we could always go again just to make sure." Chris smirked, putting his helmet back on "Dis time bet money."

I chuckled, putting my helmet back on "Y'all up for it?"

"No." Mel said

"Hell yeah" Mario said at the same time

They looked at each, communicating through facial expressions.

"Let's do da' damn thing." Mario revved his engine

"Ughh" Mel rolled her eyes but put her helmet on anyway

"Be careful bruh." Mario hissed as Chris helped him into the house

While racing, Mario got carried away and hurt his back. We had to cancel our raft trip and go to the hospital to get him all fixed up.

Chris sucked his teeth "Man shut yo' bitch ass up. Old ass tryna' pop wheelies."

I held my laugh as I grabbed my book bag from the back of the truck.

"Fuck you nigga." Mario replied

"And don't forget you owe me $500. I don't give a damn 'bout yo' back being hurt." They approached the door

"Y'all are back early." Grams greeted us

"Yeah, Mario hurt his back." Mel pursed her lips

"Po' child." She shook her head "I bet you was showing out on them AC things."

Chris chuckled "ATVs, Grams." He Sat Mario on the couch "And he was."

"Won't nobody showing off." Mario sucked his teeth

"Where's Siyah?" I asked

"I just put her down for a nap." She pointed to the monitor "Oh let me show you these pictures I took of her in the pool." She pulled out her phone
