Raymond: Mommy you overthink too much,they're good.

Tarrissa: How yuh sure, where are they?!

Raymond: At a place staying

Tarrissa: Mi cyaa believe dis!

* It was daylight now*

Reece had already made himself feel at home, not like he wasn't here before Whilst Sasha? She was taking her time getting to know the place. Anywhere far from Allen and his crazy parents is good.

"Good morning!" John greeted with a wide smile.

Sasha and Raymond: Goodmorning

"I made tea" John said and handed it to them.

Reece drank it off. Sasha wasn't a fan of the tea, nothing like she's use to.

"It good for yuh, especially since you know" John advised.

Sasha was quiet but she was smiling as usual.

"Ok, so off to run some errands, suh in the lates" John said.

"Yeah mon" Reece responded.

Sasha waved.

"Don't worry yah get use to him" John said.

"By the way come here, want to show you sumn" He said then grabbed her hand carrying her to the backyard.

Sasha noticed it was a small river.

"Oh cool" Sasha said.

"Ye, mi and Raymond use to always come here and swim in it" He said.

"Look" [He pointed] "see the hill, ye nice right?" He asked.

Sasha nodded yes and smiled.

Reece went in the river.

"Come, it nuh deep,come wash your feet" He said.

Sasha never want no parts of the river, she never been to one before, she had a small pool though.

"Come man!" Reece said.

Growing up Sasha had a lot of trust issues and she was still shocked at the mess her parents pulled but she trusted Reece.

She took off her slippers and tip-toed her way to the river, she put her right foot in first then her left.

He stretched his hand out to hold her. She was scared. She tightly wrapped her arms around him.

The river was cold but Sasha didn't mind, because after a while she sat at the bank splashing the water with her feet and embracing the cool breeze.

"See it's not that bad" He said.

He got out the river and climbed the tree close to it.

"What are you doing?" She asked.

"I'm picking mango" He answered.

Sasha never ate a mango a day in her life but she was going to try today.

He came back to the river and handed one to her.

"Here take a bite" He commanded.

She said no.

"C'mon lily, yuh can't keep refusing everything you know" He said.

Sasha sniffed the mango, we all know mango has that questionable smell but it's worth eating and good for you.

He handed it to her.

"Here, try it and if yuh nuh like it, punch me pon mi arm " He said.

Sasha chuckled and said : okay

She took a bite of the mango then punched him on the arm.

"Damn!" He yelled then laughed "How yuh nuh like mango?" He asked.

"I do now! It taste really good by the way" She responded then chuckled.

Reece rubbed his arm then shaked his head and laughed.

"So how come you never tell me about your uncle?" Sasha asked.

"Nah, he's not my uncle, he's my mentor and a friend of the family " Reece answered.

"Ooooh" Sasha said.

"Yeah it hit him haad when him first find out about my dad's death he said" Reece added.

"I know he must be hurt" Sasha said.

"Yeah and he said it was really tough that he had to hide it from me all these times and he apologized when we talked over the phone" Reece said.

"He seems really nice" Sasha complimented.

"Yeah, him a good youth." Reece said.

Later that day....

Allen is seen walking in the hospital with his parents.

Mrs. Roseé stopped a nurse walking by.

"Hello dare!" Mrs.Roseé said.

"Hello, how may I help you?" The nurse answered.

"We're looking for Sasha Harrington, she's supposed to stay with us until her parents come out." Said Mr.Roseé

"Oh I'm sorry who?" Asked the nurse.

"You remember me, Allen, the guy who came to see her" Allen reminded.

"Yes, he's the um, dad" Mrs.Roseé said.

"Oh, Sasha?"Asked the nurse.

"Yes Sasha....Sasha Harrington yes" Allen said.

"Oh..... she already left." Said the nurse.

"What kind of carelessness is that?" Asked Mrs.Roseé.

"Carelessness? Ma'am she's eighteen, she can do whatever she desire. " replied the nurse.

"I need to speak to someone with experience, not you,you're clearly new and poorly trained" said Mrs. Roseé.

"And you're clearly crazy and poorly raised, ma'am amma ask to leave please" Said the nurse.

"Doc! Doc! Is any doc here can help me" Yelled Mrs.Roseé.

Everyone in the area was looking at her crazy.

"What's happening?" The doctor said.

"These are the Roseés " the nurse said.

"Sir I'm looking for Sasha Harrington" said Mrs.Roseé.

"Oh a guy came here to pick her up" said the doctor.

" A guy?!" Mrs.Roseé responded.

"Yes" Said the doctor.

"Reece" replied Allen in a low tone and shaked his head.

"Where are they?!" Mrs. Roseé yelled.

"I'm sorry ma'am, they told me not to tell you " said the doctor.

Mrs.Roseé dropped her handbag, looking shocked.

"Whaaatt!!!!! Noooo!!!!" She screamed.
