Days later...

The federation decided to suspend me for one month.

Majority of my sponsorships has my contract on hold, lucky for me some of the companies are looking pass the tape.

Maybe because I make them money.

I've never not had work before so I don't know what to do with myself. I'm just in the house with Egypt majority of the time.

Dem act like people nuh have sex everyday, just so happen seh dem see it.

All this cause somebody access mi phone, have mi eyes on one person but mi a gwaan feel out the situation.

All I know is right now I need someone by my side I can trust, I don't know much about Hendrix but I hope I can trust her cause she'll be around my son and in my house.

She's coming to work for me soon, I still have business deals and other stuff I need her to take care of for me.

It's early, but I try text her anyways.

Hendrix

Me: Still good fi start work soon?

Hendrix: Good morning to you too and yes.

Me: I think you should come in for a interview today.

Hendrix: Seriously??

Me: Yea. And yaah fi start have some respect cause mi a yuh boss now.

Hendrix: Where and when is this interview?

Me: At my house. Be there  at 9:00.

Hendrix: Yuh tink mi have time fi waste? yuh coulda tell me dis in advance.

Me: Yuh naav a job, suh mi woulda seh yuh have some time pon yuh hand. Looking forward to seeing you at 9:00 am  sharp.

Hendrix: Send me your address.

Me: *📍location*

This time I'm drawing a thick line between mixing business with pleasure, but if she continues to act the way she does it that might be hard.
