Kelsey POV
October 17

"In Jesus, name amen," my aunt lifted her hands from my head, holding on to the sofa I eased my way up to a standing position.

Amen...

"So what you doing for your birthday?" I stalled for a minute just thinking on the best way to say mourn your brother all day.

Yeah, I'm not doing another lecture today.

Get enough between the married man argument and 'PCOS is not the end' ceremony.

"Just chilling with my friends for the day, nothing special."

"Yuh must do something, you only 23 once. You likkle boyfriend must have supm plan fi you today."

She studied my movements shuffling to my black Bresheh– that rested on the edge of center table.

What is with this lady and saying likkle boyfriend?

Right!

If she ever see the big not so friendly giant she would a have supm different fi say.

6'4 anno likkle height a whole heap a looking up dat.

"No know what the big man has planned but let's see."

Nah stop say big anytime she say likkle.

"Alright but don't cry too much today, remember this was the day you found my brother... Just try to enjoy as much as possible."

With a kiss on my forehead, she went back to cleaning the already spotless house humming church hymns.

Break Jamaican parents from the shackles of thinking you have to wake up everyday and clean.

Could never be me...

Plantation lock dung years ago.

"Woman, yuh mek yuh man call mi inna panic, him a call and cah get yuh weh yuh phone?" Kimberly entered the living room dressed and ready to go.

I felt for it in my back pocket, checking I
saw that it has been on 'do not disturb.'

An influx of messages and missed call kept coming in.

Before I could respond to anything vibration and "Kai " came up on the screen.

You couldn't save him name as supm else?

Nope.

"Babe..." My ear pressed against the phone waiting for the anticipated argument.

Here we go...

You know the man paranoid and have
enemies, why yuh would a put phone pan DND.

"Outside."

The call ended abruptly, I gave Kim a droopy collected my belongings and headed for the gate after final goodbye 'call out'.

Watch yah.... I smiled cheeks heating up.

Him never haffi inno....

But he did.

And what do we do when people get up nice things without us asking?

We appreciate it and say thank you...

Good girl!!!!

Hanging my head low, I cheesed my entire walk to his side. I mean who doesn't love a huge bouquet of white roses hanging over a man's shoulder.

His free hand roughly groped my buns, kisses chased my forehead down to my lips before he captured them nibbling a bit before sucking.

So much passion...
