It's been a week.

We still haven't been on talking terms since that day. I really did it because the love I have for him wouldn't allow me to neglect him after hearing that.

But I'm still pissed.

Still confused.

Still care.

Mi know yuh yam fi the bwoy!

Him yam fi me too.

Correct!

But as far as I know, there's no progress as it relates to our relationship.

I take a deep breath and shift my gaze to my friends who are making fun of my phone because it isn't an iPhone.

"Going back to an android is like going back to a shitty ex," Anna laughs.

"Well guess what? I don't care," I retort and roll my neck.

I'll probably go back to my ex anyways.

Nick know him a yuh ex?

Chro.

I put two plantain chips in my mouth and chew with an attitude. Soldanza is just the best. I don't like National's one.

It too tuff.

"Cyaa believe a the doll phone this," Anna's face scornful.

I got a Samsung Ao4e.

Obviously it doesn't take pictures as good as my iPhone but it'll do.

"Girl why you never tell me fi buy you a phone?" Gina ask, staring at the phone as if it's a bomb.

"Unuh stop piss me off," I kiss my teeth.

Now serious.

"Zara dash weh deh old phone deh," Anna laughs. "Mi tiyad a see it."

"Lock yuh yiy then," I roll my eyes.

They laugh.

"Zara a go hard fi har android eno," Zanne chimes in. "Lowe the lady and her android no," her tone playful. She gives me a wink.

I address the other two.

"Listen me, before iPhone everybody did want a touch screen nobody never care wah the brand was. People were going crazy over some likkle round phone name Alcatel one touch, then dem run to Blu, unuh never have that?" I ask them.

"Yes, in primary," Anna retorts.

"Fi true eno....me did have a pink Alcatel," Zanne slaps Anna as she laughs at the memory.

"Mi did have a Huawei one time," Anna adds. Still laughing.

Gina shakes her head. "I always had an iPhone before it even got popular."

"Well that a you, you born rich but at one point people just wanted to move from a button phone and wanted a touch screen," I say to her.

"That a true still," Zanne nods. "Nobody cared about the brand."

"Exactly, now there's a stigma that when you have a iPhone you're rich. When sometimes the richest set of people don't even own an iPhone," I say truthfully.

They're all silent, just staring at me.

I continue. "My father bought this phone for me. We're not rich."
