Wesley leaves Jamaica Be Irie and waits on Noah to say bye to Lucia. A couple of minutes pass and Noah comes back giggling and smiling as wide as his mouth would allow, “hi” Noah says sounding absolutely infatuated with Lucia, “hi yourself” Wesley says smirking at Noah and getting in the limo. “Hey, can we stop and get some coffee please” Noah states after passing the coffee shop by Jamaica Be Irie, “why would you say that right after we pass the coffee shop, just turn around” Welsey says while questioning if Noah has a brain, “yea but we already at the light, and I want Starbucks,” Noah whined “Ugh oh my gosh alright” Wesley groaned. They drove up to Starbucks and Noah parked the car, “why are you parking, they have a drive thru?” Wesley asks,” because I want to” Noah says, after shutting the door. A couple minutes later, Noah comes back with two drinks, “aww you didn’t have to get me one” Wesley said, Noah closed the limo’s door turned around and looked Wesley dead in the eye and said “this ain’t for you, this is for Lucia” Noah stated, while laughing at Wesley’s disappointed face “just take me home” Wesley said sadly, Noah started the limo and pulled out of the parking lot, “so…..” Noah said slowly, as he looked at Welsey in the rearview mirror with one brow up and the other one relaxed, “So?” Wesley said confused and still sad Noah didn’t get him a drink, “I saw you talking to Lyra in private” Noah hinted, “what’s up with that?” Wesley blushed and started to remember their conversation, “I just needed to talk to her about her tardiness and was checking up on her because she looked sad” Wesley stated, “interesting, and…” Noah exclaimed “and that’s it, other than the dream” Wesley mumbled, “what dream?” Noah asked, Wesley blushed even more than before, “oh it was a dirty one, wasn’t it?” Noah said giddily, “yes it was, and it was interrupted” Wesley said “also you were in it” Noah gasped “I was?! “Yea, I don’t know why my subconscious put you in my dream” Wesley said annoyed, “whoa, that’s wild bro” Noah said, “Yea, I don’t know what to do, she’s stuck in my head, and dreams apparently.” Wesley stated, “well then this means you like her and there’s no getting rid of her for now” Noah said, “I know, I just need to stay focused on the restaurant and bringing up those reviews” Wesley declared. They pulled up at Wesley ‘s house and noticed his mom’s car “oh no” Wesley said, “she’s here” Noah emphasized preparing himself mentally for Wesley’s mom “well, I think I’m just go-, he was interrupted by a knock on the window, “ahhh!” he screamed as he saw Wesley’s mom staring at him from outside, “ha ha!” Wesley’s mom laughed as Noah rolled down the window,”Mrs. Hill I didn’t see there how are you?” Noah said as calmly as possible, while Mrs. Hill just glared at him. A few moments later, they are in the house, “alright its getting late, I should head out” Noah said, “Mrs. Hill, it was lovely to see you, Wesley see you tomorrow” Noah stated as he walked out the house. “yea bye” Wesley said as Noah walked out and closed the door. Wesley turned and saw his mom look at him with the concerned look she always has when she has to ask him an uncomfortable question, “Wes…..how are you doing?” his mom asked, Wesley was confused about why the question was asked so seriously “I’m good, why?” Wesley said, “Wesley I mean how are you really doing, after your dad died?” his mom asked, “oh, umm I’m alright sometimes it hits me, but I’m learning how to manage it” Wesley sighed, “ok and how are you handling your panic attacks, do you always carry a bag for you to breathe in?” his mom asked, “yes mom, I’m alright honestly” Wesley said as he hugged his mom, “ok then that’s good I guess, I’m sorry sweetie I just worry about you, ever since that day” his mom paused and sighed “it’s hard to sleep sometimes you know” his mom stated while on the verge of tears. Wesley’s dad was a chef from Jamaica and him and Wesley’s mom left when they were young, then they came to Canada and started to create something from nothing. Wesley’s dad created Jamaica Be Irie from the ground up and it instantly became a hit, then years pasted and Wesley was born and they were living well. Then years passed and Wesley’s dad began to have complications with his heart and for Years he slowly got better and better, than he was home alone one day and Wesley can home from college and found hid dad on the ground and noticed his dad wasn’t breathing so he started doing CPR, then he called 911 and they took his dad to hospital but his dad was already dead before he even got home. His mom came and cried so long and loud the hospital could hear her, but Wesley didn’t cry he was just frozen in shock of the person he looked up to his whole life was gone forever. They had his funeral the way his dad would have wanted, like a party to celebrate how he lived and all his accomplishments. A couple months had passed since Wesley’s dad had died and he was out with his college friends, they were at a party and Wesley was hammered and got into a car accident, his mom rushed to the hospital and Wesley was conscious with slight pain in his left arm. His mom was so pissed he’ll never forget what she said to him while they were in the hospital “I can’t lose you too, my heart can’t take anymore pain, please Wesley don’t die on me!” His mom cried, and at the time Wesley remembered when he was performing CPR on his dad what he was saying the whole time “dad, please don’t die on me!” Wesley couldn’t fathom making his mom feel the way he felt in that situation and he did, then Wesley cried, all night he cried with his mom in that hospital bed and ever since then, they do what they can to protect each other. Wesley remembered that day like it was yesterday, it’s been a few years since his dad died but the memory is as fresh as water. The next morning Wesley woke up next to his mom on the couch which is where they were last night talking and reminiscing about his dad, Wesley kissed his mom on the head and started to make her some Ackee and salt fish with fried dumplings, it was his dad’s favorite breakfast meal. His mom woke up “Wes, are you making…” she’s aid while smelling the air, “yup” Wesley said while cutting up green onions for the fried dumplings. “oh let me go brush my teeth” his mom sang while dancing to the bathroom, “hurry up or imma eat it all” Wesley chuckled, then him and his mom ate breakfast together in a little while. Knock knock the door sounds, Wesley goes to see who it is and its Noah with two cups of coffee in his hand, “hello, hello!” Noah said ecstatically, “how are we?” he asked, “hi Noah” Mrs. Hill said as Wesley dapped him up, “aww you really shouldn’t have” Wesley’s mom stated as she took the two coffees out of Noah’s hand and handing one to Wesley and keeping the other one for herself. “oh! Ok yea no problem” Noah said trying not to cry “ha ha” his mom burst out laughing while she handed back one of the coffees to Noah. “Alright boys I’m off, be good” Wesley’s mom said after finishing her breakfast, “ bye mom” Wesley smiled, then his mom closed the door, then he almost instantly started thinking about Lyra and he wants to see how she is and he just wants to be around her. “Hey, let’s go to Jamaica Be Irie” Wesley said as he got off the couch and put on some regular clothes like a red shirt with gray pants, “ok, I’m hungry anyway, so that’s perfect” Noah said as he got off the couch and got the car keys, “and I get to see Lucia!” Noah squealed; Wesley just looked at him “let’s just go”. They drove to the restaurant and walked in, then Wesley saw Lyra and instantly froze it was like he forgot how beautiful she is and how sweet her voice sounds, “uh I’m going to go talk to Lucia” Noah said after sliding away, “uh cool” Wesley said while staring at Lyra, then he snapped out of it and walked up to her “hi Lyra, I would like to eat, can you be my server?” he asked while looking at her golden brown eyes, it was like looking at a puppies eyes he couldn’t hide his blush.
