In the Dark

12.

"Mmmm" I groaned as I rolled over in bed feeling my head pound, and my tongue scaly and dry.

What the hell did I drink last night?

Snuggling into my pillow as I pulled my blanket closer, I yawned as covering my my face with my hand for the light was on, and I hated even the smallest bit of light whenever I'm sleeping.

It was Sunday and mommy wasn't here to nag me, and daddy won't be home until later so I could sleep in.

"Uh nuh plan fi wake up yet sleeping beauty?" I heard someone asked from in my room, and when I tell you the way I jumped up out of my bed and grabbed a pillow so fast I almost fell back onto the bed as my head pounded.

"Wooiiee deh. A who yah go kill wid pilla?" He ask and my grip on the pillow loosened and I allowed for it to fall onto the mattress.

"Wah yah do inna mi room Xavier?"

"Drink this and take dis." He said handing me a cup of water and two pain killers, and I took them for I will need my energy incase we end up arguing, for we seemed to always do that when talking to each other.

"Done." I said opening my mouth and sticking my tongue out after swallowing the pill.

"Good." He said taking the cup from me, and I rose brow for he still hadn't answered my question.

"Uh Neva ansa me enuh. Weh yah do yah?"

"How uh feel? Nuh feel like uh wah vomit nor ntn?" He asked completely ignoring my question, so I just kissed my teeth and walked into my bathroom.

"Bomboclath!" I exclaimed as soon as I turned on my bathroom light and looked in my mirror.

"A wah a wah!?" Asked Xavier sounding worried as he ran to where I was in the bathroom as he scanned the area with his hand on his waist.

"Uh couldn't tell me say a so me look! No sah uh fake bad." I said as I washed my face, and his kissed ha teeth, his shoulders seeming to relaxed as he leaned against the door frame.

"Did tell uh from a taller time say uh warm but uh Neva wah believe me." He said and I rolled my eyes as I brushed my teeth.

"Ready fi tell me wah yah do yah?" I asked as our eyes made contact in the mirror as I washed my hands.

"Just did wah make sure say uh alright after wah happen last night."

"Yeah, what happened last night?" I asked confused, but just as he was about to respond Isla came barging in my room.

"Thea lend me one-oh uh still deh yah?" She asked not even being phased by Xavier being in my room as she made her way over where I was in the bathroom.

"Anyways uh have one extra toothbrush can lend me? Mi leff mine uppa Granny."

"After uh nuh usually brush teeth so why yah ask now?" I asked chuckling, and she rolled her eyes, "me nave none, but look inna mommy dem bathroom upstairs, or inna the downstairs one."

"Ah. Oh by the way uh alright?"

"Head a kill me a likkle but yeah me good." I shrugged as I stripped out of my clothes to take a shower.

"Oh caz mi did frighten when uh Neva did a wake up. All slap mi slap uh enuh. Like a some hard drugs the man drop inna uh cup. Aye when me see how Xavier do di man essi mo kinda feel sorry fi him, but at the same time him fi glad say a never me wull him caz God know mi woulda murder him fi uh."

"Eeh. Drugs? Damn. Imagine the first time me tek drugs me nuh conscious fi enjoy it sigh. What a sumn."

"Sumn wrong wid uh enuh girl. Imagine uu get drugged and a dat a uh biggest concern." She said shaking her head and I shrugged for it already happened and I was okay so why would I allow it to bother me when worrying cah change it?
