Scars

16 @ War

Me and Zico sat facing each of other on my bed; we were waiting for me to talk, but I just sat there playing with my fingers.

“Girl you gon’ tell me or what?”

I rolled my eyes and opened my mouth to speak, “Well you know how I told you before, about those thugs?” I asked, he nodded.

“Well...they never did stop coming. Not only that, but mama also got involved with some loan sharks.” I tilted my head to the side and bit my lip as Zico listened carefully.

“Ever since that time, they showed up when my mum as work and because she wasnt there, they found me. They would teach me ‘lessons’ so send my mum a message and they thought I would tell my mum what happened, but they were wrong. I never told her; soon they got frustrated and just started me instead.” I told him casually, I showed him all the different scars I had, avoiding the G on my stomach.

I watched anger, sadness and pity wash across his face.

I just shrugged and continued, “And a few weeks before I came here, they showed up again. I heard two men burst into my house, and I hid in the cupboard. Let's fast forward a bit, they trashed the place, one of the men found me, I knew him. Just like the others he said he was going to send my mum a message, my mum obviously knew his name so he carved his initial onto my stomach.”

Zico’s eyes widened in disbelief as I slowly lifted my pyjama top to show him the big G scar on my belly.

“What does the G stand for?” He asked as he reached out for my scar and traced over it gently. “Geko,” he pulled his hand back and I put my top down.

“Geko? What a stupid name. People can be such animals.” Zico scoffed

I let out sour laugh, “Yes, yes they can. I’ve experienced it firsthand.”

I shook my head and sighed, “Anyway, those were the scars I was talking about,” I ruffled my hair irritation. “How’d he even see ya scars anyway?” Zico asked, confused.

“He walked in on me changing,” I answered

“He did what?”

“I said-”

“I heard what you said, I was expressing my disbelief.”

I narrowed my eyes, Now I see how annoying it is when I do it.

“Why was he even in your house?  I didn’t think ya’ll were that close,” Zico pondered

“Oh, my brother’s spending the week here so we can ‘bond’ and his friends were here yesterday,” I said, Much to my disappointment.

“Back up, you have a brother?” He asked surprised

God-ing-dammit! Why do I always seem to spill my secrets to this guy?!

I facepalmed, but before I couldn’t speak again Zico cut me off, I’m getting real tired of your Zico, “And your brother is in SHINee?”

I rolled my eyes, “Yes, to both,” Zico gaped at me, “How the is you related to anyone in that pansy group?”

I snorted, Pansy

“I didn’t believe it at first either, but apparently we have the same dad,” I told him, Zico shook his head slowly, “So which one is it?”

I stuck my tongue out, “Onew.”

Zico was silent for a moment, “He likes chicken...Black people like chicken......IT’S PERFECT!” He exclaimed, before I punched him in the face. He fell onto the floor holding his now bleeding nose, I shook out my hand.

“Holy ! Girl I was kidding! you punch hard!”

I watched him stand up, “I know, but ou pa bezwen estereyotape,” I said in patois and kissed my teeth at him.

Moun sòt (idiot)

 (That literally translates into ‘do not be stereotypical’. Also patois is what the older generation of Grenadians speak, it’s broken French. Also other Caribbean countries speak it too. ^^)

I am hiding so much from you....
