PART 2
...hot...hot....hot
The evening sun was stifling her stride back to the hotel room...her
thoughts stretched towards the night-date at De Warehouse ....
8pm..
Needing to catch a nap before heading out into the night... to the
dancing/freedom/cultural-gripping themes..she made a mental note about
a song and the dance which went with it..**.wuk-up the bajans called
it..upon her enquiring**..A Barman had threatened to show her this
wuk-up...but she learnt that night after watching a little lass on the
dancefloor.
She had put in some practice in her room..her headphone
on..walkman volume high..she gyrated moving IT like a windmill ***round
and round*** /she
felt satisfied..If her friends could see her now..
In the shower,her thoughts swung around to him and she questioned
herself **is it customary for someone on a six day visit to an
island,to fall for someone so quickly or is it her loneliness,playing
with her emotions?
^^no i will not let it get out of hand^^
yes a dance..a laugh.. a drink and maybe a walk on the beach..
From the shower ..to bed..to sleep...sleep ..s l e e p sl e ep
sl
lll eepp.
7:48 pm ..the watch hand grew impatient.
The taxi was late.
oh! where is that taxi..i need to get out of here: She muttered to
herself..
8:03pm. a car horn belched into the night..she hurried out of the
room..grabbing her bag in flight ..through the door..into the
dark..her
dress contrasting..
TAXIMAN .:good evening madam.
(she didn.t answer..she was angry)
The warehouse!. do you know the warehouse.? She enquired.
TAXIMAN : yes i do.
No others words were exchanged during the trip through the narrow
streets.the motor purred .the night breeze fresh and clinging.
TAXIMAN : $$ eighteen dollars
$$twenty dollars folded in her palm to his...
Keep the Change..she sighed, as she exit the car..
He looked at her with a feeling of disgust..
$$ two dollars .what am i going to do with two dollars.?.,the taximan
thought
He drove off without his customary goodnight..
she wore a satin white dress which clung to her body..wrapping
tightly around her well-shaped bottom.. some men outside shouted at
her..she did not respond..
''Hey baby wheh yuh giong so fast,.. stop and talk awhile nuh?
man would like to talk to yuh" ...the voices snaked after her.. her
white dress kissing the night and the boys goodbye.
she paid at the door and went straight to the bar...
BARMAN:How's my amurican gurl...yuh look so good tonight . like a
seven-up drink being poured into a glass..~so sparkling. ..what
would yuh like to drink?
All those questions at once..startled her...
any drink. give me one of your specials: she replied
BARMAN::A special drink for a special woman
She took the drink..her eyes darting through the crowd..looking for the
face.,the sweet bajan face,which had rescued from her loneliness .
she ached to see him again...The music /-drink took her on a flight
everyone on the
floor was having fun..shouting the words to the soca songs.
~~ .WHO LET DE DOGS OUT ..WOFFF ! WOFF ! WOFFFF.!..
She got caught in the refrain..who let the dogs out wof .. wof..
wof.fff..
two drinks had pass and only one payment was exchanged..the barman was
using this time as a flirtatious move..it would not work..(sorry
kid).
The FACE appeared in the middled of the crowd..his shirt silky and
white.to match hers..her face lit -up..oh my he.s so hansome..her heart
called out..
his smile was melting hers and she laughed inspite of her nerves..
her evening would now be complete .The FACE had arrive and she was
happy...and the music was.......wait .
There was someone on his arm .a girl dress in a black mini dress
her body shouting out for forgiveness.. and her ways would melt many
young man.s heart...
~ why was i so foolish*..She questioned herself
As he reached her ,his smile closed to a kiss .He reached forward to
kiss her cheeks .but she moved slightly.. he missed..and caught her
perfume..the smell wafting over him.. he smiled again puzzled at her
actions.. **(shouting above the noise)**
WHATS YOU NAME?.she asked
.MY NAME IS DU AWEE..(pronounce duh ar wee) ,he replied
MY NAME IS VERONICA: She replied(her eyes fixed on this girl
connected
to his arm)..
How are you, he asked .

the music was building and the shouting from the dance-floor was
getting
louder..her favourite song..

sliiping
from lips,,freely...he looked at her sing the song..her body moving
with
sexual undertones..toning her her dress to a sculptured frame..his
feelings tightened..wanting to her hold her......... In her
dancing she had missed the other girls disappearance...
