It is now Christmas and everyone wearing some Christmas color, we all in the kitchen giving a helping hand except for me I'm just helping my belly to some food.

Come out, nuh.

With the song playing 'all I want for Christmas is you' playing in the background.

I dance to the music while tasting everyone pot.

"Shan, why yuh nuh come out," anna said.

"Anuh dat come tek mi out," I beat my chest.

She ran after me, and I ran out of the kitchen laughing.

"STOP SLOW MI DUNG INNA LIFE NUH GYAL, " I shout.

My mother was well dressed in her Christmas suit reading her book while her chipmunks cooked.

Christmas corral blasts through the house, and our Christmas tree is set up with presents underneath it.

All me should a wrap up under deh cause I'm a very special gift for yall.

Weh yuu say one in a million?

Yes, girllll.

The boys played fifa on the flat screen TV.

Mario had his eyes on me, but I paid him no mind.

"Shaniece, " Renea called my name.

I head into the kitchen, "wah?" I answered.

"Come blend juice," she said, pointing to the carrot and ginger and other ingredients.

"Lieeeee," I exaggerate.

"Truuuuuuueee," she gave back the same energy.

Scrapping the carrots, then washing them and cutting them into small pieces, I placed them into the blender with the other ingredients.

I added water and pressed the buttons in which to blend.

Yea and good gyal done mek ih carrot juice.

"Rushawn bill nuh," I whinned as he poured a large amount of juice into a cup.

"...a your share dat eno, cause a must out a day day own yah drink, "

"Out a who fah, yuh mad man," she looked at him then me.

"Be a good wifey and share wid yuh husband," I tease her.

"Eeeee," anna and Ren agree with me.

"Weh him naah bade oman deh Shaniece?" She looked at me hands on her hip.

Anna used her mouth to point on her, and Renea just laughed, Rushawn left the kitchen, and I just laughed.

"If I laugh a die," I let out a sigh before exiting the kitchen.

"Shaniece!" I heard my mother called my name.

"Mommy,"I answered, walking out to where she was.

"Beg yuh some wata," she hands me an empty glass cup.

Took the cup from her hand, I walked to the kitchen and got her some cool water from the fridge.

Walking back to where she was, I  handed her the glass full of water.

"Thank yuh," she takes the water

A doh wants a soul call back mi name now.

"Shaniece!" Anna yelled my name.

Mi naah guh eno.

"Weh yuh wah?" I asked anna as I entered the kitchen.

"Weh the salt,? She looked at me.

"Bax yuh yf," I hissed.

"...fucking ediaat, nuh ih salt dis," I whispered shout.

And she just laughed, taking the salt from me.

"Uno do call back mi name man," I cursed before storming off to my room.

"SHANIECE!!" they all shout my name.

"guh suck uno mumma," I murmer under my breath, ignoring them.

I entered my room and lay flat on my stomach.

A tiad.

Mnk.

As my eyes got heavier, my phone began ringing, and I answered the call.

"Hmmm," I said with my eyes closed.

"Weh yuh deh?" His tone serious.

"Inna yuh," I retorted.

I heard him hissed his teeth.

"Guh brush, ih," I commented

"Yuh ave too much tuff chat feh a girl who caah mange hood eno," he laugh through the phone.

"Come suck mi," I hissed, and the call ends as the word left my mouth.

I yawned, rolling over to my side and falling into a deep sleep.

***

"Shan," I heard someone call while shaking me.

"Excuse, " I heard Anna's voice say.

Two hands were on my feet, pulling me off the bed, I quickly jumped up to see anna dragging me off the bed.

"Guh suck a dick nuh gyal," I kicked my feet around, trying to get loose from her hold.

"Come get up," she slapped me.

I sit at edge and then stretch before going out to the dining area.

"Lazy pickney, yuh get up," my mom looked me up and down.

I smiled, taking a seat between her and Mario.

Mi babies share out mi plate a food femmi eno.

A big smile was on my face as I saw the type of meat was on my plate, barbecue with fry chicken and raw vegetables.

I picked up the forked and was about to eat when I felt a hard slap on my shoulder.

"Awoooh, " I rubbed the spot as I looked at my mother.

"Yuh gi God tanks yuu just ready feh nyam so," she cursed.

Shame.

I looked over at my friend's who were stiffling their laughs.

"Eeee," ren says before covering her mouth to prevent from laughing.

We all held our heads down as my mother began to pray.

"We thank you, Daddy Jesus, for providing this meal for us tonight, we are grateful and thankful to you mighty God. We thank you for your protection that you put around us daily. Many don't have anything to eat, Lord God, " my mother prayed.

I opened one of my eyes looking at the meat on my plate, wondering if I should make a swift move, putting it in my mouth.

I looked over at my friends to see anna sneaking a piece of her meat inside her mouth while chops eating his food quietly.

"...we thank you, Lord, for having us sit here tonight and eat as a family, "

I looked over at my mother, whose eyes were closed while praying, I quietly took up one of my meat and placed it at my mouth, as I was about to take a bite the words left my mother mouth.

"Amen," they all say in sync.

I threw the meat down, and it fell to the floor, and they all looked at me before laughing.

I started to look around as if I was searching for something, then I met Mt mothers eyes.

"Hehehe," I smiled to my mother.

She began to laugh, and everyone else joined her.

Puss and dog don't have the same luck.

Bowy mi food did a get cold.

Lol, fucka yuh.

"Shan yuh nah tek up back yuh meat?" Rushawn teased me.

I just looked at them has they made fun of me.

"Too nuff," anna sings.

"Too likkle bit and nuff," day day finish the tik tok sound.

I just quietly eat my rice as they laugh.

Caah, choke, man.

"A thats why yuh nuh fe-" ren begins to cough.

"Yah, say now?" I laughed as she continued to cough.

She drank some of her juice to calm the coughing down.

"See wen yuu nuff," she said, wiping her mouth.

We continued a new conversation as we ate and talked.

After finishing our dinners, we all gathered around the Christmas tree where all the presents were.

As the Christmas song blasts through the house, I picked up a present that has my name on it.

A wah dem get feh the barbs now.

Unwrapping my present, I saw a small box with a little card.

From rushawn to farrid gad, the card reads.

Opening the box, I found pink air pods.

"Thank youuuu," I blushed.

He just smiled over at me.

I took up another that had my name on it. It was a white bag, and a card was inside that wrote to my little princess.

"Awww, mommy," I pouted and looked over at her as I finished reading the card.

As I took out what was inside, I looked over at my mother in disbelief.

I took a deep breath in before saying, "A prank?"

She just laughed.

I stood up, jumping up and down and walking around, saying, "A weh the camera deh?"

"No, a must prank mek mi open it," I say, sitting down.

With trembling hands, I open the present, and yes, it was real, I throw myself on the floor, kicking my feet in the air.

Sitting back up, I cover my mouth and mouth thank you to my mother, and she just smiled, amused by my reaction.

Oh wait, mi neva tell uno which present mi get nuh.

"Woooiiie, mi naah open nuh more a feh uno turn now," I gushed.

"Aaaaaahhhhh," I screamed, and they all laughed.

Smile so till mi cheeks dem a hawt mi.

No man, I caah believe it.

Daniece was next to open hers. She read the card before blushing and looking over at Rushawn.

"Yuck," I coughed.

My friends laughed, and she showed me the middle finger.

Inside was a white Louis Vuitton purse.

And inside fill with money.

"Goods beg yuh some nuh," I teased her.

She covered her face before flashing her hands around with wide open eyes.

"Ello if uno nuh ave Louis doh chat to mi," she laughed while patting her chest.

Lata mi ago help her check dah money deh.

She opened another present that was from me where I got her a white airforce.

"Yk how long mi wah one a dem yah," she squeaks before taking the shoes out the box to inspect them.

Who says weh naah play dress up lata??

"Okay, ren turn," she said, smiling.

Ren took up the present that I bought for her. She laughed after reading what I wrote on the card.

Inside, she pulled out a make-up set, a dull red curly lace frontal, and a long white fitted dress.

Weh ago play Barbie before weh guh slp a dat mi know.

"Just wait till mi drop on dah hair yah," she boasted.

"Weh yuh say," I hyped her.

"Hide uno man," she joked, and we all burst out laughing.

It was now Anna's turn.

Mi wah see a wah chops get har.

She opened her presents, read the card, and glanced over at chops.

"Ewww," both me and ren say at the same time.

Inside was a perfume set and a black Prada purse.

"Spare mi a perfume nuh," I say in an old voice, stretching my hands out.

"Yuh caah behave shan," day day say while laughing.

"All yuh to, sparr change," I say in an old voice at the end, holding my hands out.

After all of us open our presents, we decided to do some karaoke in the living area then watch a Christmas movie to seal the night.

But our night ago seal when me done play dress up and set up this a phone yah.
