Kenya's POV* | 5:12p.m

"Girl we nuh need fi waste money pon liqour. I have cases of liquor in the storage room at my house" I tell her and she shrugs before putting it back

"Alright, let's cash now" She says and we join the line

....

"Eighty-nine thousand dollars" The cashier says and I widen my eyes

"Mi bomboclaat, eighty-nine thousand?? Fi wah??" Britney voice my thoughts as she looks at the goods being packed

The cashier is silent and I chuckle

I take my card from my purse and hand it to her.
"No man. Mi can bet the food nuh last we the likkle two days we deh a the place"

"Girl yuh sure? Mi feel like a scam" She whispers in my ear and I laugh

"We get chop then cause mi cyah badda fi go a next supermarket" I tell her

It's true though, We got little to nothing because we won't even be there for long......

I look over to side where it's being packed and there's only two boxes.

Two boxes of basically nothing take off almost a hundred thousand.
Wow.

"Nosah, mi sorry fi the future children.....All mackerel a guh stretch the parents pocket" Britney exaggerates and the cashier finally laughs.

She hands me the card machine and I put in the pin.
She gives me the card, along with the receipt when it's finished and I place it in my bag.

"How much should I give you?" Britney asks me and I shake my head no

"Girl-"  I say and she chuckles

We leave the supermarket and the helper packs the boxes in the trunk.

Shit, I don't have any cash.

"Here" I hear Britney and I look up

Two thousand dollars.....
He smiles at her before telling her thanks and leaving.

"Alright now where to?" I ask

"Buy clothes" She says and I nod

I don't need any, since my closet is filled with clothes I've never touched but I'll take the drive out.

The next day | 6:45a.m

"Babes" I hear him call, waking me up from my sleep

"Ready so me can drop yuh off before me go a the airport" He says and I pout

"So early?" I ask, the bright light in the room causes me to squint.

"Come nuh killa, me nuh wah yuh guh Portland by yuh self"

"Britney would just-" I begin but he cuts me off

"Get up" He simply says before walking away

I throw my head back with a scoff before getting up.

I spread the bed, then head to the bathroom and begin getting ready.

8:07p.m

"About to leave now" I send a message to Britney before getting inside the car

"Yuh have everything?" He asks and I nod

"I still don't understand why we have to leave this early" I tell him as I buckle the seat belt.
