Kenya's POV*
12:41

"Come man Kenya, time fi yuh wake up"

A familiar voice says, shaking my shoulder

My head is pounding!
The bright light shining through the window makes me want to pluck my eyes out

I still feel a little nauseous but I manage to hold my head up to see who it is

It's Chef Jones

"Here, drink some chamomile tea. It's good for the hangover" She says and I pull my self up, taking the tea out of her hand

"Thank you"
I say and I take a sip

Perfect.

I breathe a little, gathering my thoughts before asking
"Where's Aaron?"

"He's on the road, him soon come man"

I pout a little

After what happened last night, I'm feeling more attached to him

He was genuinely concerned and the fact that he treated me with so much care last night

Really have mi head going.

"Jayden and Kiara still here?" I ask

"Yes, Kiara has a hangover too but it's not so bad and Jayden is there with her"

"Drink the tea and when you ready, come for the food. Me cook it from morning, you'll have to heat it up" She Adds

"Alright, thank you so much" I say and she nods before leaving the room

I take up my phone to call Aaron and he picks on the fifth ring

"Where are you" I ask in a soft tone

"Pon eh road a deal with sumn, yuh feel better?"

"No"

He hisses
"Mrs Jones give yuh food fi eat?"

"I just woke up, she give me chamimi tea"

He chuckles
"Chamomile tea Kenya"

I sigh
Mi not even wah laugh

"Soon reach home b, eat and go back go sleep"

"Ok"
I say before he hangs up and there's a knock on the door

"You can come Mrs Jones" I say but it's not her

It's Kiara

She giggles as soon as she sees my condition

"Yuh worst dan me" She says

"I know right. Draw dem curtain deh fi mi nuh please"

"No the light is good" She says

I sigh before taking another sip, finishing the tea before putting the cup on the bedside table

"Me body pain up, me head a kill me, me eye feel like it wah roll out a me face and me still nauseous"

"Oh my, the tea soon start work. A fi show say you really enjoy yuh self"

I laugh
"Me a go fi the food, you eat already?" I ask

"No, come on"
Kiara says and we head downstairs

Mrs Jones cook callaloo and fry dumpling with plantains

Mi cyah wait fi this!
I share it from the pot and put it in the microwave

Kiara laughs out
"Girl look"
